There was no Burdock Blood Bit- ters in those 'days, so Job had to suf- fer in silence. Now-a-days no one need endure the misery of boils. Boils are simply evidences of the oad blood within coming to the sur- lace and just when you get rid of one, another seems ready to take its place and prolong your misery All -the poulticing and lancing you may do will not Stop more coming. What you have to. do is take BURDOCK BLOOD BITTERS and the blood will be cleansed of all its impurities, and then every boil will disappear. Mr. Roy McSwain, High Bank. P. E.

You 'had believed them until {the day of the auction sale at your {home, and you had often laughed {over the antics he had indulged in when you visited Aunt Sarah at {Simpson's Corners where he lodged. | But on the day when he sold the | stock and most of the furniture of | Your hoffe, there didn't seem to be {much point to his quips and Jests | Others laughed at them, the young | tolks particularly, and you wonder- |ed why.

The auction proved to be long and tedious business after all; not half 80 interesting as you had though® it would be. And some of the men who had acted as though it were a holi- jday to them, began to get quarrel- some and very noisy as the day went on. It required the combined efforts of your father, the auctioneer and minister to keep them from fighting. A few things were bid in by Uncle Jim for mother a Dad; the old clock; the bed warmer, the spinning wheel that crafty Tobias Mortency tried to get for a song.

There is an 'amusing story of a conference Briand had, when Prime Minister, with Mr. Asquith, at the beginning of the war. Briand and his colleagues travelled by night from Paris to London, and Briand, instead of sleeping, insisted upon telling stories and anecdotes during the whole of the journey. Arriving ia London in the morning, they pro- oeeded straight to the Foreign Office for a conference which lasted till luneh time. Immediately after lunch they went to 10 Downing Street, to See Mr. Asquith. The latter proceed- ed to open the conference with a speech, whereupon Briand, who was by this time very tired, promptly went to sleep in his chair. Just as Mr. Asquith finished, M.

An extraordinary longevity is that concerning an agri- culturist named Thomas Parr, born in Shropshire, England, in 1433. He was engaged in agricultural pursuits and worked in the fleld till after his 130 birthday. At 120 he married a ties of another family, his wife pre- senting him with pring. At 152 he was introduced to the court of Charles I. by the Burl of Arundel, as a remarkable prodigy, but the change of alr and new mode of living caused his death. A post-mortem examinalion of his body was made, but no internal symptoms of decay could be discovered. A grandson of Thomas Parr died in Shropshire at the age of 120.--Lonhdon Answers.

(Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) The erosion of hillsides and the {flooding of the land below by the eroded material has long been a worry and an economical loss to many farmers in hilly and moun- tainous sections. This can frequent- ly be prevented, and the method em- Ployed depends on the conditions ex- isting, such as the nature of the soil; light or heavy, the steepness of the slope, and the type of agriculture practiced; pasture or tilled crops. The Value of *'Sheep-Drains." ¢ Wet hillsides used as sheep pas- tures may be much improved by what are sometimes called "sheep-drains." These are merely shallow open ditches about 30 inches wide on top, 9 inches wide on the bottom, and 15 inches deep for removing the sur- face water. They are dug slantingly around the slope to intercept the flowing water and carry it in a definite channel to a suitable outlet at the base of the hill. The removed earth should be thrown out on the lower side to form. a sort of embank- ment to the drain. The grade of the ditch/ should not be so sleep as to glve the water sufficient force to de- stroy the drain by either washing itself deeper, and thus making dangerous for the sheep and lambs. ASub-drains are some.imes necessary. Terracing and Draining. A system of terracing is quite uni- versally used to prevent destructive washouts on hillsides. The terraces are made perfectly lével, and of any width;-and then carefully seeded to grass. 'At the time of rain the water spreads out evenly over the surface the slope below without sufficient the hill and thus "gullying." For the drainage of tilled hill- prevents sometimes used successfully. The amount of erosion of the land large- ly depends on its condition. surface soil can be kept firm the erosion will be lessened. Soft spots on the hillside, though, frequently occur as a result of seepage water from above whieh has penetrated the surface soil and reached an imper- vious layer and thus deflected to the surface on the side of the hill. Water flowing over this with con- siderable force will naturally wash it away more easily than the firmer soil free from this seepage water. Advantage of Tile Draining. If tile drains are so laid to inter- cept this seepage water, considerable erosion can be prevented. If the hillside is comparatively steep, drains laid at an angle to the in- cline will be more satisfactory. They will naturally intercept all of the water flowing through the soil above them. Also the grade will be less and the drains sre not so liable to be affected by the water moving slow- ly through them. If the slope is not very steep the drains may be laid down the incline with satisfactory re- sults. Here the tile drains the land on both sides and no double araining results. In this underdratinagé the general benefits are again obtained. The water level is lowered, thus giving more root capacity to plants and the prevention of surface washing by allowing the water to penetrate through the soil to the drains, thus carrying much plant food to the roots of the plants.--R.

Phone 980 Why an Orchard Will Pay, The planting of commercial apple orchards in the Province of Ontario is highly desirable for several rea- sons: 1. Ontario is not producing enough good apples for home supply, but imports annually from Nova Sco- tia, British Columbia, Oregon and California. 2. Production in Ontario is likely to fall off still more because no com- mereial planting is being done. Very few commercial apple orchards have been set out in this Province since 1911. 3. Of the thousands of young trees sot in the boom years of 1905 to 1911 a large proportion have al- ready passed out of existence. Prob- ably not more than 20 per cent. of the trees planted during those years will figure in the commercial produc- tion of the future, and certainly not more than 40 per cent. of them are alive and receiving reasonable atten- tion to-day. 4. The home orchard will never again be an important factor in com- mercial apple production in this Pro- vinee, because it ts not large enough to be worth while. In seasons when seab conirol is difficult, of when prices are down because of a heavy erop, the return from the small och- ard is not large enough to Justify the expense and risk involved. When conditions are unfavorable the small orchard passes quickly into a state of neglect; this is why apple growing In Ontario is at such low ebd at present. 6. Fruit fs an essential part of diet. While it fs true that in case of necessity people ean live without it, it is also true that health suffers and nutritional . complaints become much more general {n the absence from the dietary of fresh fruits and vegetables. The apple is the most important and most useful fruit of the temperate meme, and, from the standpoiat of public health, fts etil- ture should not be negeleoted.-- J. W. Crow, O. A. College, Guelph, - wr v Bible City Fuad. What is regarded by many schol- irs as the most valuable discovery which has yet been 'made by the archaeologist in Palesfine is the loca- tion of the site of the city of Caper- Raum. Among its ruins have been found the remains of a synagogue be- lieved to be the very one whergin our Saviour preached. For er nine een hundred years the very site of such an important Bible city as Capernaum has been in dispute. It was thought that it 8tood at the northern end of the Sea of Galilee at a place called Tell Hum, where there are extensive ruins, A systematic examination of these, and the discovery of aneienif docu- ments, now make it clear that this, indeed, was ancient Capernaum. The ruins of a Jewish synagogue have been brought to light. Explor- ers say this temple stood there in the days of Christ, and is the very bufld- ing referred to in the Gospels.
