gain a sympathetic ear some of them went about annoying private citizens by appealing for money at the front doors reeve morden had just consent ed to the town providing a free bed and breakfast for ono pair going to northern ontario when next a couple of chaps who had been seen about town all afternoon made formal appeal on being told there was nothing doing as they had loitered about town waiting for tho proper time to strike for the free stuff they became saucy and de manded to know if the reeve wanted to fight nothing daunted the couple tackled councillor weldon on his way to supper when a similar re fusal was made to their demands councillor weldon is chairman of tho relief committee and hadbeen wised to tho couple and four other pals hanging about the village one chap even referred to tho desire he j had to put up at the local hostel all night for a warm room with good ham and eggs for breakfast this is exactly what has been supplied in the past hence the information was properly spread in hobo circles and bid fair to swamp the capacity of the hotel and the purse strings of the relief committee had hot a firm stand been taken in future the bill of fare will be rigidly reduced in a manner that is calculated not to attract too many of these knights of the road we believe the rate payers are very anxious that relief be extended through council in every worthy case this is prefer able to having men begging from door to door and to having them left in tho cold however the swarm that came along on tho evening re ferred to last week appeared to have just rode tho bumpers from toronto in order to spend a day in the country and to ret a chance at that ham and egg feast so pictur esquely described to them no doubt by incoming transients to the city however like the too frequent guest the gang had worn their welcome out and an indulgent community turned them down flat on wednesday january lsth the baptist church hero was the srene of a semiinformal

flocks on canadian farms too much silage authorities claim that silage is an extra good feed if it is not abused two kinds of abuse are to feed too much and to let the sur plus accumulate in the mangers it should not bo forgotten that silage is largely water if the cows are en couraged to cram themselves with silage at tho expense of grain and hay they will not be getting enough nutrients to sustain their bodies and a profitable flow of milk prefer ably the grains should he fed on top of the silage so that it will bo eaten first and then not more silage than will be eaten readily if there is a surplus it is well to clean this out of the mangers daily weekly crop report tho continued mild weather in tho first part of january made it possible for live stock to get plenty of outdoor exercise regularly and in most districts generally speak ing all classes of stock are in good condition from lincoln county comes tho report that less grain and more hay tiro being fed to the average
