Taking the num-‘ ber of days’ stay of patients, viz: 3451, and the total cost for main: tenance, $5044.60, it will be observâ€" ed that the average cost per day was $1.46. It was inevitable that the average cost in the first year‘ would be above the normal, newer-3 theless, whilst the cost was high, it was below the figures shown in the last Departmental report as the avâ€" erage cost per day in several hospit- als which have been established for a number of years. Repeating the number of days' Stay, 3451. it is interesting to no- tice that free patients were main- tained for 357 dayts: patients who were chargeable with 40 cents per day, for 1772 days; patients who were chargeable with $1.00 per day, for 1057 days; and patients who were chargeable with $2.00 per day, for 265 days.

A Man on The Spot States The Reasons, Results and Care The present slump in beef prices is a matter of no small intereSt to the Nortthst 'l‘erritorties,, and to Can- ada, generally, though to the North- west to a much greater extent than is perhaps understood. The imporâ€" tance of the cattle business in the Territorties is becoming greater year by year. In 1901 the imporâ€" tations of young cattle to be finish- ud on the ranges amounted to thir- ty-six thousand head; in 1902 it was fifty thousand head, and in the present year the increase will be still proportionately greater. This means a very heavy investment of capital in the business. The number of cat- tle in the Territories is probably over, rather than under, four hund- red thousand. head. As a consider- able portion of this cattle wealth consists of "dogies," that is, east- ern yearling, and these have been bought during years of good prices for finished cattle, there will in many cases be considerable losses on re cent investments in ranching enter- prises. The losses to newly import- ed cattle last spring from very un- favorable weather will still further reduce returns from this class of range stock. Steers that last year sold for fifty dollars are this year selling at about thirty-four dol-larS. ‘and the demand is more than slow at this price. Tvm-athirds of the cattle will be left in the country, even at these figures. -‘ -uL- pliances, ..........................

The situation for the ranchers is made still less favorable for the fact that cattle generally are not in the best of condition owing to a late start in the spring and to the fact that continuous summer rains over most of the ranching country have prevented the grasses from ripeningi so as to finish the cattle properly. Last year we shipped 66,000 head of beef cattle from the Territories. Sixteen thousand of these went west and 50,000 went east. The cattle that went cast are principally, or perhaps wholly, export, and as the total number exported last year for beef was 77,000, it would appear that the Northwest cattle constitute about tum-thirds of the export beef product of the Dominion; ‘Both from, ’a national and territorial stand- 1point, the leaving in themuntry of 1m SOLE surron It i! tobendtodthatthodflei p“ o! the cattle Maine-I is not. an m the accumulated m nixed 124 59 179 11 73 7O ' The present depre velop plans by portant beef indus put. on a more ecor basis. and it is in beef products by feeding .um tering should appropriate]; place. - , 7â€"2-“ -1“ [tau-.4».

Apart from the immediate benefits to those connected with the beef production. there will he securâ€" ed to the country important side in- dustries connected with the curing and cunning o! meats. and the tan- ning and perhaps the manufacture of hides. Hogs Shut up Should be Fed Charcoal or Other (:0er â€" Aston- ishing Results Hogs that are closely confined and highly fed require a. corrective of some kind to maintain the digestive system in normal cond tion of health and the fatter -the pig the greater the necessity, says Live Stock Com- missioner F. W. Hodson. When the digestive organs become clogged with fat their ability to digest and assimilate is weakened. When a hog is running at large, he does not met up the pasture 1mm pure 10.1 :A L- of cxcercise. nor does he do it beâ€" cause‘ of innate cussedncss. Uc roots to obtain something for which hi§ system craves. It is this era“. ing that causes a confined pig to gnaw and tear at the trough and sides of the pen ; and hogs have been known to tear apart brick walls to get at the mortar. The cause of this natural craving is not well un- derstood. It may be due in part to lack of ash in the food; for, as has been already .stated, a hog may be getting all the grain he can eat and yet be partially starved. because certain remun- mentlgf the system‘are insufficiently supplied. It has been attributed by ,aomo to the ptecence of intestinal my by these substances. one thing is clear, that when they are supplied, hogs are healthier. out; better. thrive better. and comm-nay pay better. Charcoal is probubly one of the but cox-necks. and when it can b0 readily obtained, it will pay to keep 5 supply In some plan when the hog. .gutunwhenevertmy like. ‘ following pnpuruthm In M .4 by If.

If the charcoal is at all hard to get. its place is taken al- most. as well by sods or earth rich in humis. It is questionable indeed if there is anything ”better than sods or vegetable mold taken from the woodlot. If a small quantity be thrown into each pen daily, it is astonishing to see how much of it, the hogs will consume, and the im- proved health and thrift of the ani- mals will tie a revelation in 1hr feed- er that has never before triad it.
