When this tube is inflamed ou bave a rumbling sound or imperfect hear- ing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucus surfaces. ‘We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that Cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

I induced him to procure a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, which he applied with the most astonishing and marvellous effrats. Before he had finished using the contents of the first bottle he could walk readily without the aid of a stick, and after a few applications from the second bottle he was free fzom pain, and has been ever since; and although fifty years of age and a farmer, he can walk ang work without experiencing any pain or difficulty whatever.” Vocermr’s Curative Compounn, the great remedy which makes people well ; it 1s made frqm the formula ‘of an eminent'London physician.

The following clipped from the cor- respondence columns of the Eau Claire (Wisconsin) Leader is but one of many letters of a similar character that might be published concerning West- ern Canada, the land of No. 1 hard wheat and the best cattle on the con- tinent. It is a simple matter to reach the lands spoken of, the Canadian Gov- ernment having agencies established at St. Paul and Duluth, Minnesota; Grafton, North Dakota; Watertown, South Dakota; Omaha, Nebraska; Kansas City, Missouri; Des Moines, Iowa; Wausau and Milwaukee, Wis- consin; Chicago, Illinois; Indianapolis, Indiana; Sault Ste. Marie and Detroit, Michigan; Toledo and Columbus, Ohio, and by writing to or calling upon any of these agents at these points full in- formation can be secured. This is a great opportunity to secure a home free of cost or if you desire to purchase lands they can be bought now at prices much lower than will exist in a few months. But read what the corre- spondent referred to has to say of one “To the Editor of the Leader—The @| rush of the land seekers will be to the prairie provinces of the Dominio: Canada. The allurements of a soil it yields 40 bushels of wheat to the acre are too great to be resisted and an immense migration from this country may be confidently predicted. People here laughed at first at the idea of any one leaving the United States for Canada, but the Dominion authorities knew they had a good thing and they stuck to it. ‘Their officials evidently knew the value of printers’ ink. They spared no expense in letting the people of this country know that these lands were there and that they were exactly as represented. They did more. They sent out specimens of the crops raised and samples of the graffi. We bave had them bere at four consecutive street fairs, presided over by one of their ablest immigration officers. This gentleman spared no pains. He ex- plained the value of the landg and the richness of the soil from morning to night to all comers, “All this told fm the long run. Sev- era] went up from here to spy out the Jand and like Caleb, the son of Je- punneh, and Joshua, the son of Nun, brought back a good report, and now some ten families will leave here in a few weeks for Saskatoon to settle upon farms there, and others are preparing to follow. Of course many will appear shocked at the idea of any one leaving the stars and stripes for the Union Jack, but patriotism is but a nomen- clature after all, and our experience has been that in nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand a man is the most patriotic where he can make the most money and do the most harm to those whom he hates." noel Points to Be Looked After. Fred H. Rankin says: Do not a& tach undue importance to populas strains that happen to be fashionable, or to fancy as to color of hair, etc., provided that you do not get outside the color of the breed. But I would emphasize the giving of special regard to vigor of constitution, robustness, and capacity for digestion and assimi- lation. Some of our more observant breeders are coming to think that in some of our breeds of swine, the pro- cess of refining the bone and lighten- ing the framework has been carried very near tu the danger line, and the time has come to emphatically call a halt in that direction. Too little atten- tion is being given to securing sturdy straight limbs and strong upright feet, whereby the pig is able to stand squarely and steadily on its feet, Among the objectionable features to be guarded against are the long, slen- der, pipestem legs ending in slim, un- certain ankles and weak feet, together with a failure to carry the meat of the ham full and well down toward the hock. The strong arched back, the well sprung rib, the full heart girt, the broad shoulders, the deep ham, the strong underpinning, the strong, shapely foot—these are among the more vital points to be observed in the building up of a good and thor- oughly useful herd of hogs. These are the points chiefly sought after by in- telligent farmers and breeders. An at- tempt at the combination of as many of these good points as possible in the shaping of the farm herd is a good thing. For Growth of Fat Strong bone and lean meat are es- sential to a hardy race of swine, as has been shown by the investigations car- ried on by our experiment stations, Those same investigations have shown that corn as a swine food has limita- tions. It is the proper food for fatten- ing swine, but it is not the best food for building the frame that is to carry the fat. For the development of the frame clover is one of the cheapest and best foods. Grass is good where clover cannot be obtained. These two may be fed as pasture, and their har- vesting and subsequent handling is thus avoided. Milk is a great frame builder. Roots play a minor part in the ration, but can be fed to advantage with other feeds. The eaters of .ork naturally prefer pork made in this way to that made by feeding a whole corn ration. When the fattening time approaches the feed should be changed gradually from the kind we have men- tioned to whole corn. Utitiing Free Seed. ‘ Dispatches from Southern Missouri state that hundreds of farmers in the Ozark hills of Missouri end Northern Aransas, who suffered severely by last summer’s drouth, have been re- duced to very short rations this win- ter and in some cases have lacked ne- cessities. They are of proud, inde- pendent spirit, however, and have re- fused all offers of assistance until now, the planting season being at hand, they are willing to accept seed which the sovernor of Arkansas has secured with money borrowed by him from the banks. The situation is being inves- tigated by a representative of the Mis- souri State Board of Charities at the request of Governor Dockery, who has proposed that the Missouri aelegation in Congress apply the seed, which they are authorized to dispense under the free seed distribution allowed con- gressman, to the relief of these unfor. tunate farmers. Stock Judging in Missouri. Frdm Farmers’ Review: Prizes in the annual live stock judging contest have been awarded as follows: First prize of $25 to Mr. Geo. W. Hamilton, Fulton, Mo.; second of $15 to Mr. W. L. Schubert, Rockport, Mo.; third of $5 to Mr. E. A. Loomis, Meadville, Mo. The awards were made for the best grades in judging beef cattle and the best essay on the subject, “The Most Profitable Type of Beef Cattle,” This contest has been one of the most suc- cessful features of the Short Winter Courses in Agriculture, and the keen- est interest has been manifested in the judging of all classes of live stock. The new building for live stock in- struction and the pavilion for judging will be ready by September, 1902.— Frederick B. Mumford, Prof. of Agr. Univ. of Missouri. The Hessian Fly. From Farmers’ Review: Relative to the Hessian fly, I would say that nothing has proven effective in this lo- cality (Jersey County, Illinois). The late-sown wheat has as a rule little fly, but it does not give a satisfactory crop. Lime and various remedies have been tried, but without much profit. I have not sown any for several years. I am now growing cow-peas and soy beans.—C. B. Bartlett. _ Helen's Tower, Clandeboye, the home of the late Lord Dufferin in County Down, pos- sesses a unique curiosity, reports the London Chronicle. In its park stands the famous ‘‘Helen’s Tower,” which Lord Dufferin built in honor of his mother, some fifty years ago. This tiny tower, which looks down upon St. George’s channel and obtains glimpses doth of the Scottish coast and the Isle of Man, is really a miniature house, with sitting and bedroom, kitchen and servant’s room. Here hangs the em- dlematic silver lamp presented by the much-loved mother to her son, while a sablet on the wall bears, in golden let- fers, the lines addressed by. Lord Dut- ‘erin to her son upon his coming of age. Tennyson’s poem on the tower is too well known to need quotation; but Browning alsc wrote some lines upon ‘t. Lady Dufferin was a granddaugh- ler of Richard Brinsley Sheridan, It may be just an accident, but, usual- ly, soft hearts go with soft wits.

M.THl (mm purrs BrEssines Health will come with all its blessings to those who know the way, and it is mainly a ques- tion of right-living, with all the term implies, but the efforts which strengthen the system, the games which refresh and the foods which nourish are important, each ina way, while it is also advantageous to have knowledge of the best methods of promoting freedom from unsani- tary conditions.
