Patriotism is love of one’s country ; the pus-ion which aims to nerve is either in defending in from invasion or prote cc- ing its rights, and maintaining its laws and institutions in vigor and purity. In every age and in every olime peo- ple have instinctively loved. to a greater or a less extent. the country which has afforded them a home. England’s colon- ial wars have afforded conclusive and oftentimes very costly evidence that it is natural to cling to one’s home and insti- tutions. however crude and primitive they may be, and to defend them at any cost. It has been universally true that people will fight and die and in many other ways show the price at which they hold the land of their birth or adoption. Goldsmith says : “The naked negro panting at the line, Boasts of his golden sands and palmy wxne, Basks in the glare, or stems the tepid wave, And thanks his gods for all the good they gaveI" We have no reason to believe that the people of Canada have not to a very great 1 degree this instinctive love for their Dcâ€" minion and added to this, are many rea- sons conducive to the greatness of their love for Canada. It is true Canada is a young nation. She cannot boast of many centuries of existence, of many great battles fought or conquests won. She cannot claim to have freed down- trodden people of heathen at other lands ; but, she has many characteristics of which she may be proud and for which she should be dear to the hearts of her ceuntrymeu. Her territory is almost un- bounded, her soii rich in mineral, forest and agricultural wealth, her lakes well supplied with fish. her climate variea from that of “the Sunny South.” to that of “the frozen N orth” yet healthy in all ita stagee,her people happy and though of varied parentage and traditions, united and loyal, her lawe equitable and just, her educational inetitutione firat among the nations of the world ; and ahe has the affection and parental protection of England, the greatest nation the world has yet seen, and whose flag haa braved a thousand yeara the battle and the breezeâ€"ever an honored emblem of free- dom, advancement and justice. That Canada has not been found wanting in patriotism has been abund antly shown in the history of the past' In 1776 she showed her unswerving lay: alty to Great Britair, in 1872 her willing- ness to defend her country from toes without and in 1837 her hatred of in- surrection within her borders. But dur- ing the last month she has done herself proud in abundant evidence of the unfail- ing patriotism of her people. In four- teen daye she raised a contingent of one thousand volunteers and had them in readiness for embarkation to assist moch- er England in her conflict for English frequent and justice, against the Boers. We look back with pride upon the lives of such noted patriots as Cartier, Tilley. Brown, Mackenzie, Macdonald, and Thompson. We may fully trust our future with such able men in our par- liament as Laurier, Cartwright and Field- ing and Boweil, Tapper and Foster. Then we have had in the past, and still have, thousands of honest, loyal and true citizens who consider their part in the up- building of our nation to be the improve- ment of our farming communities, manu- facturing industries and mercantile oper- ations and by daily attention to the duties of their several spheres exhibit quietly it may be, though none the less truly, their unbounded love for Canada and their ardent hopes for her future $100888 . May the patriotism of the past be a steppingstone and an impetus for the future ; may our love of freedom of thought and speech. responsible govern- ment and religious liberty, ever increase and may each Canadian, realizing that he has a share in the upbuilding of the nation, express in action as well as in song the sentiment : “God save our Queen and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf forever."

Ed. \Vatchman- Warden] How Much Land I: Needed to Keep I Milk Cow? With good, rich land kept always in grass, two, three and even four acres will be needed to winter and summer I stand so still for days and days, But, God of war, it seems to me That though I stand for days and days, Or seek for death 111 other way 3, 'lhou. God of war, control my days, a cow, says The American Cultivator. Where the land is rocky or poor it may require five acres to a cow, besides buying some grain or meal as extra feed in winter. It is always true econ- omy to purchase bran. wheat mid- dlings or grain meal to feed to cows that have a hay diet in winter. It makes the hay go further, and when- ever a farmer makes close calculations he finds that for milk production at least hay is the most expensive teed he can purchase. Among the cheapest of all cow feeds are linseed and cotton- seed meal, though neither can be fed in large amounts nor without being mixed with chopped hay or straw. to give more bulk with the same nutri- tion. Even corn and oats should be ground and mixed with cut hay or straw to get the best results from feed- ing them. It the whole mess is well steamed and a little salt added. it makes the cow eat it with avidity. and the moisture from steaming the food greatly stimulates the secretion of milk.

You’ll bury me quite cheenly So deepâ€"so deep and thoroughly With the introduction of the silo to keep green cornstaiks in succulent conâ€" ditlon for winter feed there came a revolution in the feeding of cows. It enormously increased the amount of fodder that could he produced on an acre. Instead of taking two. three or four acres or more to keep a cow through the year. as with grass. a cow might be kept on an acre or perhaps three cows on two acres if some win- ter crop can be grown, like rye, to he cut and fed in the spring just before the grain begins to head out. Fifteen. 20 or more tons of corn fodder can be grown per acre if the corn is fed green. Twenty and even 25 tons of large southern corn can be grown per acre. which. made into ensiiage. would make a daily ration of 100 pounds or more of ensilage per day for 365 days in the year. This is more than any cow should or could eat. (But; what is life to me 2 to thee ?)

For lead kills life, mine enemy I’llâ€"smile and thank mine enemy. Right. bravely shot, mine enemy So lay me out now. decenbl) And heap the earth up over me And thenâ€"oh think no more of me ! Fifty pounds of ensilage per day is. except for short periods. all that can be profitably ted to cows giving milk. The remainder of the food required should be dry hay. clover, if possible. and some bought grains. Though these require the expenditure of mou- ey from the farm, they pay better than trying to grow on the farm every- thing that has to be fed. as used to be the motto with old fashioned farmers. It is only since eastern farmers learn- ed to supplement their home grown rations with cheap western grain that they have been able to produce milk and butter as cheaply as the west. Feeding succulent food instead of dry hay and dried corn fodder in win- ter has greatly helped to develop the milking capacities of our leading dairy breeds. All of these originated in mild and moist climates. where succulent and nutritious food is plentiful at all seasons. The Channel island cows. the Friesian-IIolstein and also the Ayr- shire cattle originated not far from salt water, which is deep enough to keep open in winter. In an arid coun- try the best milk producing; breeds rap- idly deteriorate .in dairy qualities. Where there are plenty of springs of water, so as to keep the air moist. the milk producing breeds can be most profitably produced. because. other things being equal. they can be bred to produce more milk and butter in each succeeding generation than in the one which preceded it.

WATCHMAN-WARDER: LINDSAY u w { MELK FE VER :vvmvmmvvmww Dr. Leonard Pearson, state V'eLc... narian of Pennsylvania. in an article on milk fever and Its treatment. says: “Two years ago a Danish veterina- rian suggested that milk fever may be a poisoning of the animal due to the absorption from the u‘dder of abnor- mal substances produced there under certain conditions. It is known that by the fermentation of certain organ- - ‘MAâ€"_-_..An VJ vâ€"v _ ic substances poisonous compounds, known as ptomaines, may be produced. These sometimes develop in sausage, cheese, ice cream, preserved meat, etc., and in such cases produce illness when eaten. Such poisonous substances are the product or bacterial action. It has DR. LEONARD PEARSON. been shown recently by Dr. V. A. Moore that bacteria may be found even in the deep parts of many udders. It is not impossible, therefore. that poi- son producing termentatlons may oc- cur ln the colostrum and that the ani- mal may be poisoned by the absorp- tion of this material from the udder. “If we accept this as a working the- ory. does it explain the known facts in regard to milk fever, and does it har- monize with all of them? It injurious bacteria enter the teat. they will have greater opportunities to become dis.- tributed by the prolonged manipula- tion and through the wide passages of the productive udder of the rich milker than through the unmanipulated udder of the heifer or the more confined pas- sages ot the poor milker. After dis- tribution also they will find more se- cretion upon which to feed and work in the udder of the rich milker than in that of the poor milker. If the cow is kept milked out prior to calving, there will be little opportunity for any in- jurious substance to accumulate in harmful quantity. New Treatment Explained State Veterinarian Pcar- son of Pennlylvanin. “The conditions that tend to prevent milk (ever are the conditions that tend to repress the activity of the udder. as bleeding. purging and low feeding. That high condition without an active udder does not predispose to milk fever is shown by the fact that this disease is so rare among Hereford. Galloway and Angus cattle, although the cows of these breeds are usually in higher con- dition than Jerseys or Guernsey's when they calve. It appears. therefore. that there is some force in this new theory. and it remains to determine whether a plan of treatment based upon it will give better results than have hereto- fore been obtained. Milk fever has al- ways been looked upon as a very fatal disease, and in diderent places and different seasons the mortality has ranged from 50 to 90 per cent. “it milk fever is produced by the ab« sorption of a poison developed in the udder, the injurious material in the udder should be removed or neutraliz- ed as soon as possible. Frequent milk- ing, every hour or so. has for years been looked upon as a very important part of the treatment in all of these cases. But the new treatment goes further than this. It provides for washing out the udder. Pure water and many solutions have been experi- mented with. and it has been found that a 1 per cent solution of iodide or potash has given the best results. About one-half pint of this solution is injected into each teat and distributed by rubbing and manipulation through each quarter of the udder. The solu- tion is allowed to remain for'15 to 30 minutes and is then milked out. This is repeated in four hours it necessary. In making the injection a milking tube is used to which a piece of thin rubber hose two feet long is attached. in the loose end of this hose :1 small funnel is inserted. This is held above the udâ€" der, and the solution is poured into it and allowed to run slowly into the milk cistern and ducts. ”Most careful attention must he paid to the cleanliness of the udder and hands and the sterility of the instru- ments and solution. The solution must he made with freshly boiled distilled water and in a sterile bottle. The in- strumentsâ€"that is. the milking tube. the rubber tubing and the funnelâ€"â€" must be freshly boiled and kept in a perfectly clean dish until used. The udder must be washed and the tents disinfected and the hands disinfected before the milking tube is inserted. All of these extraordinary precautions are necessary to prevent injury to the udder. If foreign matter or certain bacteria are introduced with the in- struments or medicine. the udder will become inflamed and perhaps will be destroyed.” \ Keep Cows Quiet. Keep the dairy cow as quiet as pos- sible It you want the best results. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2m“; At 11 o’clock A.M.
