Owing to unfavorâ€" able harvest conditions, the attend- ance was 'not so large as at Duns- ford the previous day, but the com- petition in all classes was just as keen and the poultry exhibits a shade better, due probably to the fact that the\cluckers were older and conse- quently better matured. In thi31 group the teachers and pupils are tot be congratulated on the excellence of their exhibits. The judges had no easy task in picking the winners. The program was the same as at Dunsford. Mr. W., ’1‘. Hunter placed the awards in the poultry, while Mr. D. A. MacKenzie,and Mr. W. H. Ste- Vens, P.S.I., placed the awards i11i the tent. ‘ Sheaf of oatsâ€"M.

Cholera infantum, diarr- lhoea, dysentrz, and stomach trou- bles are rife at this time and often a precious little life is lost after only a [few hours’ illness.

The occasional use of the Tablets prevent stomach and bowel troubles, or if the trouble comes suddenlyâ€"as it generally does â€"the Tablets will bring the baby‘ safely through.
