The greatest double-action plea- sure known to mortal man should be that which arises from paying oae’s debts, for both creditor and debtor share the delight. Instead of feeling rich now that more money is coming your way from the season’s transactions and incurring new debts and spending more on luxuries, first make it a point to pay up all outstanding accounts. Do you owe the merchant, shoemaker, blacksmith, publisher, or other business man who trusted you? Show your gratitude for past favours by paying the bill at the very earliest opportunity, and commencing the new year with a clean slate. Do not sleep after you get the money before the debt is paid. Then your conscience will be at ease, and your .slumbers will be as sweet and refreshing as a child’s. ‘Tmr.

To them it would be an enormous benefit to have the main roads â€"‘.he great centres of travel in this cluntyâ€"put in a first-class condition, as easy for travel at all times as the improv- ed section of Kent-st. in Lindsay. No doubt this can be done in the course of a few years, and without too large an expenditure of money, if it is gone about in the right way. It will not be neces- sary to consider any scheme that will involve the expenditure of a large sum. for that will not be approved of by the county council. But, if the principle of adopting certain leading county roads is approvedâ€"and it is an excellent ideaâ€" then the council can go on and mature a plan of road improvement and construc- tion that will in a few years make a great change for the better. All Will admit that the plan can be carried out most advantageously by the county councilâ€"in financing. in construction and in mainten- ance. The co-operation of the township councils would be necessary to Selecting the roads to be decided upon as leading lcounty roads, and we have no doubt that i will be cheerfully accorded. u . ‘ The plan seems to be to undertake what could be judiciously and thoroughly done in a season â€"-say an expenditure of about $10,000 year, and the construc- tion or improvement of a twenty or twenty-five mile section. Suppose, fcr instance, the sections of the leading roads from Bobcaygeon to Fenelon Falls. or from Kirkfield to Woodville and Oakwood, or from Bobcaygeon to Lindsay‘ were improved or reconstructed in accordance generally with the beat ideas of Road Instructor Campbellâ€" would there not be practical evidences of the benefits of good roads furnished every day to all who had to use them 2‘ To meet the expenditures, debentures for $10,000 or $15000 could be issued each year as required. and it is believed these could be disposed of at 834.1; per cent. rate. or perhaps even lower. By making forty-year debentures at this rate the total expenditure for the scheme when completed in a. few years would result in an addition to the county rate small in cOmparlson with the advantages that would follow first-class roads throughout the county. Referring to the financial part of the scheme, the ratepayers of this county have experience mainly with the railway bonuses. It may be well to remind them that in connection with the $85,000 nonus to the Whitby railway the amount rhat acvually had to be raised was less than $50,000. Owing to the careful way in which the sinking fund was managed there was enough accumulated therefrom 1in interest to pay the balance. No ‘doubt, in time similar gratifying results could be accomplished from the county road financing. . I Then there is another point to be kept in mind. Those who paid the special rate for the railway bonus always had to pay extra when they required to use the en's, but the improved county roads can be used by all “without an additional “toll” or “ fare.” We think the time has passad when it is necessary to enter into an argument. in advocacy of good roads. All, we fancy, .dmit their importance. their necessity and their advantages. It is a question of ways and means and the best way to go about the work. These questions are up for discussion. and any one who am give practical suggestions on the subject is invited to szep foxward and have his say. The county council invites discussion and co-operation. There could not be a better time than the present for the county to undertake the work. S. S.

I think, howevcr, had he endeavored to ascertain the facts before writing, his good sense would have pre- vailed and the letter would not have been written. The Y.M.C.A. have a suite ()f‘ rooms, one called the boys’ room haw! ing a separate entrance from the others.) The association have been in the habit. of ai- lnwinz lawful meetings to be held therein. collecting a small rental therefor and thus deriymg a small revenue in this way. If the young liberal conservatives of the ‘own desire to organize in the same way, I have no doubt they can have the same room on paying what the young; liberals naicl for it. In a few days now the farmers oi the township of Ops iiterested in the lowering of the water of the Scugog are all to meet in this same room, eni I rm no reason why the association should not make what revenue they can out of one of the rooms which is less frequently Need by the association than the others. ‘ I offer this explanation to “Feirpley,” and true: he will accept it.--Yours sincerely. D. R. ANDERSON. SIs,â€"The communication which ap? peared in last week’s issue of your paper, dealing with municipal matters generally and the present council particularly, signed by “Disgusted Citizen.” (“Dis grunrled Citizen” would have been a more appropriate name), calls for immediate notice, and let me intimate that such a letter appearing at this pirticular season of the year is perhaps one of the potent reasons which deter able and successful business men from entering the arena of municipal politics. The writer evidently forge‘s that the bonded debt of the town, which he so deplores, was not created by the council but by the property owners who, by their votes, authorized the issm) of debentures for well understood purposes; if the golden results anticipated have not been realized t) the extent desired why load the oprobrium on the devoted heads of the members of the council? Incidentally the bonded debt of Lindsay is not so enormous as the writer insmuates, con- siderably lesa than $180,000. and under the arrangement by which consolidatiol was effected some years ago it is being each year substantially reduced. “ J'~__- ..!

Lindsay, November 20th. 1897. The comparison between the council and the school board does not hold g0ud ; by the way did not a member of that body resign in disgust. the other day l I quite agree with the writer that the business of ‘ 'he board is conducted in an orderly and intelligent manner and by men who are quite camble of managing any business successfully, and I will support him heartily if he can induce them to become .andldates for municipal honors, but the businetl of the school board and the busine‘ s of the town cuuncil are not similar. The school board. when they want. money, make a demand on the council for ‘any amount they deem necessary to expend and the council must levy and collect the tax and submit to the odium. I heartily indorse the formation of al ratepayers' association; it ought to be an effective means of securing better material in the council, but surely “Disgusted Citizen” must be aware that very earnest efforts have been made in the past 1:: induce prominent business and profession- al men to shoulder their fair share in this work of‘ thankless glory, while some stipulated for the mayor’s chair or nothing, nearly all declined the doubtful honor of becoming a town councillor. ,nnj L- _-_ ‘A In conclusion I am pleased to say to “Disgusted Citizen” and all other citizens that the finances of the town are $14,000 better than they were two vears ago and ‘ are in better shape all round than Sbeyi have been for years, at least since it became my duty to become intimate with them, nor has this year been barren of reform in the administration of town affairs.

Robert Bonner said that he al- ways could do anything with the size of colts by the feed that he gave them. Plenty of feed and of the proper kind, given so that the baby would never stop growing. and the breeder will have a horse of perfect development, with iron bone and muscles of steel. The sensible plan in feeding any ani- mal is to find out just What old Dame Nature has given it to sustain life. and by following that article as nearly as possible secure the proper growth. In mama’s milk we find 9. 95 per cent of food (dry matter), and of- this the food respiration and fat production (butter and milk sugar) amount to 6.02 per cent. This leaves the casein or muscle forming element 3.40 per cent, or more than one-third of the entire quantity. The colt thus receives in his mother’s milk a little more than one of nitroge- nous to two of carbonaceous elements, or a proportion of one of muscle forming to two of fat forming elements. This says emphatically that the colt requires food rich in muscle forming elements, and that it is a great mistake to use foods rich in starch, such as corn or even barley, for the young colt. Corn is not a. proper food for colts, as it is not only too starchy, but it is deficient in lime and phosphoric acid. It is a well known fact that bone is made up of phosphate of lime. Horses may look all right when they are raised on an ex- clusive diet of corn, but any one who uses such animals will tell that they are subject to all the diseases of the joints, as spavins, ringbones, splints, etc. Bran should be fed liberally to colts as soon as they can digest it. Amixture of corn, oats and bran will supply lime and phosphoric acid with the nitrogen required for making muscle as well as the starch and fat for vital heat. Two pounds of linseed meal given through the week will serve to regulate the bow- els and aid the skin to throw off the waste matter of the system. Strange as it is, few breeders realize that the skin, with its thousands of small openings, or pores as they are called, through the perspiration gets rid of more waste matter than the bowels. In the conditioning of horses this is a most important matter and too often overlooked by the trainer. If the skin is not in good condition, the kidneys have double work to do, and if this is con- tinued for any length of time the breed- er will find that he has a permanently injured animal. Too much importance cannot be attached to this most material part of the eCUnomyof animal life. Oily food has a direct action on the pores of the skin and keeps them open so that the perspiration can escape without any trouble or in any way conflicting with the work of the rest of the organs. On the other hand, if the bowels are not can-fully looked after, it will be found that the skin is shouldering the most of the work, and trouble is bound to come. Linseed oil for a medicine when it is absolutely necessary and the meal £01 food cannot be praised too highly. I do not believe much in medicine that i.“ given by grooms or by the ordinary man who owns a. horse. If it becomes neces- sary to give medicine, call in a. veteri- narian and do as he directs; The school: are now sending out men who know their business. See that all get what they will eat with relish, and above all things see that there is plenty of the best water for the youngsters. This is an item that is all too often overlooked, but is, I was almost tempted to say, the most important consideration in all stock raising. Certainly without it suc- 0053 of even a. moderate kind with the best of blood and individuality is out of the question. Have the earth around the edge of 'the well packed so that no surface water can by any possible means get in and then with a. drain from the trough so that there will be no sloppy hole under it the outside is in good condition. â€"E. J. Riddick in Country Gentleimm. There is a peculiarity in the mechan- ism of a sheep’s jaw and grinders that helps one to understand the reason why sheep are able to get so much nutriment from their .food. In noticing a sheep chewing its cud it cannot but be observ- ed that the jaw has a peculiar motion from side to side. The branches of the lower jaw are closer together than the molars are in the upper. Then in the molars their edges have difi‘erent slopes. In the upper row the face of the molar slopes very decidedly from the higher inner edge to the lower outer, while in molars of the lower jaw the face slopes from the outer edge to the higher inner. These things, together with the rough surfaces of the molars, gives a sheep the power to thoroughly grind its food.â€" Professor J. A. Craig. After you have taken hogs from pas- ture use them gradually to the solid food on which they are to be fattened. Don’t cram too much into them at once. Keep your hogs warm and comfortable throughout the cold weather, the stock hogs as well as those you fatten. The hog is easily chilled. Before going into the business of hot- house lamb raising for the Christmas market the sheep breeder who is new to his work~ should try the ordinary way of having lambs come in the spring and raise these for the full market.

Raisers and shippers of turkeys who were present said that the style of dressing was much superior to that now common among the farmers, and would give the poultry a more attractive appearance for the local markets, as well as for export. The Minister of Agriculture has directel that several sets of other specimen be prepared to be exhibited to the poultry men at different centres dur- ing the next two weeks. We are pleased to state that Mr. Gilbert will be in Lindsay, at the council chamber, on Monday next, Nov. 29th, at 2 p.m., and farmers and all others interested in the poultry business should make lit a point to bepresent, and learn just how poultry must be dressed in order to command the best figure in the English market. Stock Notes. â€"At the Central house stables on \Villiam- st. can be seen three fine specimens of the imported English Shire horse. The animals have hardly vet recovered from the efl'ects of a stormy voyage. They were imported by Mr. Hogate of Omaha, Nebraska. who has been engaged in importing and exporting horses for the past twenty years. The animals are Champion 4th, Orphan Boy, and Quarter- master, and are all registered and rich in fashionable shire blood lines. Orphan Boy is: a handsome bay, and was bred on the farm; of Queen Victoria at Osborne, Isle of Wight. He has achieved renown as a great swimming horse, having iumped from the boat when being removed from the farm to Live;pool, and and swam back to the Isle of ’ight, a distance of twelve miles. This was a wonder- ful {eat and showed great endurance for such a heavy horse. Quartermaster is a rattling good three-year-old and will develop into a great horse. He was bred on the farm of his highness the Prince of Wales, which is a guarantee of the purity of his blood lines. Champion 4th is an evenly made horse throughout and is rightly termed a heavy one, his weight being no less than 2,100. Farmers and horsemen should inspect these fine animals.
