Age of Bear for Service. The age at which a young boar may be first used depends largely up- on his dévelopment. _Some boars may be used to a few sows when not more than seven months old without ap- parent injury: As a rule, it ts safer not to use a boar before he is eight months old, and to use him as spar- ingly as possible until he is a year old. No hard and fast rule can be laid dowg, and the owner must use his judgment in the matter. Exces- sive use when young Is likely to shorten the period of a boar’s use- ulness and since a boar will usually leave the best pigs after he reaches maturity, the importance of saving him while he is young, will be read- fly appreciated. Some good breeders will not allow more than one service a day with intervals of one or two days a week without being used in the case of valuable boars. This is a matter which can be regulated better in large herds, where several stock boars are kept, than it can where only one boar is kept and where cut- side sows are admjtted. The owner of & boar under the last-named con- ditions will require to exercise all his ingenuity to prevent his boar from being used too freely during certain seasons of the-year. In no case should more than one service to a pee: he permitted, and the boar Should not be allowed fo POH With sows to which he is to be bred, Ex: cessive use is likely to result {i sali weak litters, and the aim should be to save the boar as much as possible. ad after he has been . f the boar is shipped bkome dis- canes and arrives excited and tired, from the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley for a magnificent violin of his make, which he exhibited there. ~~~. _ In order to dispel the existing . impression in England regarding the coldness of the Canadian climate, five thousand peony blooms are be- ing distributed at the Canadian Pa- cific Railway Pavilion at the British Empire Exhibition. These plants ‘were produced by W. Ormiston Roy, of Montreal, who states that peonies are the best landscape “flower and can be grown in all parts of Canada, irrespective of climatic conditions. Hon. W. G. . Nichol, Lieut.-Gov- ernor of British Columbia, and D. C. Coleman, Vice-President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, opened Erystal Gardens, the new and unique indoor salt-water swimming pool at | Victoria, B:C., recently. This afiuse- ment centre, which has two dancing ' floo oors, a gynasium, art gallery and tea-rooms, is regarded as the largest and finest of its kind on the con- tinent. Being exceeded only by Mexico and the United States, Canada now ranks third among the silver pro- ducing countries of the world.

To gét the best results the ‘boar should be in fair fles A Teasonable amount of fat on his bones will do bim no harm uf he gets sufficient exercise. An exclusive meal ration will not give good results, especially if the ration is made up of corn. It is true that corn can be fed to a boar with- out injuring him, but it must be fed in the right way. Corn is fattening, but its exclusive use is debilitating, and the feeder must combine some- thing with it te get good results. Equal parts ground oats and wheat middlings make a first-class meal ra- tion when corn {fs not used. It gives sufficieng, bulk, and is nutritious without being heating or too fatten- ing.
