Not many ore in s position to svsil themselves of the good prices now ofiered for dniry products of all kinds, and especially for fine butter. ESSENTIALS FOR ECONOMICAL PRODUCTION (1) Fresh cows. It is unsatisfec- tory trying to produce milk with a herd of cows most of which hove been milking during the past sum- mer. At least one-half the cows should freshen between the first of November and the last day of Feb- ruery. ('2) A moderately warm, clean. light, well-ventilated stable is a great aid in the economical produc- tion of winter milk. Cold and badly ventilated stab!es mean added cost for feed. d(3) Cheap, succulent feed is need- ed. This is best got by providing corn silage, mangels, clover hay, and suitable meal. A vert good ration for a cow giving 40 pounds of milk daily or making I; to ‘2 pounds of butter per day is 30 to 40 pounds corn silage, 30 pounds mangels 8 to 10 pounds clover hay. 4 pounds bran, 3 pounds ground oats, and 1 pound oil cake. If posmble cut the hay. pulp the roots. and mix the bulky feed together for a few hours before feeding, Add the meal to the bulky part at the time of feeding. The foregoing amounts may be divided into two portions and one half be given to each cow, night and morn- ing. The cows should be fed regular- ly and each animal should be under close observation by the feeder in order to nate her appetite, response in milk flow, and other conditions. If the feeder finds that the cow can profitably consume more than eight‘ pounds of meal daily, then extra meal may be given. Careful feed ers who weigh the milk from each cow will soon learn the limit of pro- fitable feeding for each animal. CARE 01" THE MILK. If the cow be kept clean and the Imilk be drawn in a cleanly manner linto a clean pail by a clean person land he removed shortly after strain ling from the barn, there is no reason iwhy winter milk should have a ‘” cowy odour. ” This "cowy odour’ is usually caused by filth which drops into the milk during the milk- ling, or is absorbed by the milk from ,the foul air in the stable. Milk should be remOVr-d from the stable before it 00013 to the tempera- ture of the Stable air: otherwise it will absorb taints rapidly. After straining the milk does not usually require any special cooling other than that which takes place from the cold air. if it be stirred oc- casionally to prevent the cream ris- ing and to insure uniform cooling; throughout the whole mass of milk. It. is also necessary to prevent. the milk freezing in order to obtain the best results. If sent to a. winter creamery, it should be delivered at least three timesaweek. If manufactured on the farm, it should be made into butter us soon as possible nfto'l' it, i:- drawn from the cow.

Last summer one of the young man’s legs was amputated as a result of an accident in Charl- ton’s mill, and for a long time his life was despaired of. He survived the misfortune. however, but fearing he would eventuailv become mentally deranged he fretted continually. He felt that he was “only in the way.” notwithstanding the kindness of his father and family. He was thirty five years of age and much respected in the locality.

The hall was handsomely decora- ted with evergreens and the national colors. The arch across the front of the platform and the three wreaths at the rear encircling the pairs of flags were greatly admired. Each and every selection of the evening’s entertainment was excel lently rendered. Mr. J. S. Wilson. president of the undertaking, acted as chairman and at.8.15 p m., be assumed the duties of that position which he most ably filled, His pleasing manner and cordial greet- ing convinced all that the social would be an entire success and after a brief address the first number was announced. A song of welcome was sung by teacher and pupils. When the cur tain was again drawn. three small boys, attired to represent:toadstools gave an amusing recitation. Miss Emma Campbell, the Louise elocutionist, gave. in her pathetic tones, a poem which stirred the emotions of the interested listeners Miss L. Hutton, the Crawford teach er, also a selection entitled “The Courtship.” This was Miss Hutton’s first appearance on the platform in West Bentinck and in response to the hearty applause she rendered another comic recitation. The “Medley” by the four boys and four girls was extremely laugh able. They demonstrated to their parents and friends that they were of the right sort of material to ac- complish whatever they undertook and in spite of the fact that this side of their education had been consider- ably neglected during the pater. the careful training which they received ena led them to do themselves and their teacher credit. The two plays enacted by the young people were highly apprecia- ted. ”A Mislaid Proposal” set forth the troubles of a wealthy lord during l his courtship and was deliciously funny. The trials were caused by the brother of the beloved lady and three mischievous. maidens. The performers were Mr. Geo. McCaslion. Miss E. Prat, Miss E. Campbell. Mr. W. Cross. Miss A. Owens and Miss M. Hutton. The other was, "Wooing under difficulties.” The characters were Mr. A. Hastie. Miss C. McCaslion, .\-.lr J. Kramer, MLB. Leeson, Miss E. Kramer, Mr. A. Green and Miss M. Hutton.

Mr. Milhausen, of Elmwood, with his deep musical voice sang two solos, “The Blue Bell” and "I’m Wearing my Heart Away {or You.” The committee wishes to thank Mr. .vlilhnuseu for his assistance. He has favored our village before and is here. as everywhere else, a great favorite. As the programme was sufficiently lengthy the mixed quarteue gave only one closing song. Miss E Cronin was the accompanist for the evening. We will now mention the mos important part in which Mr. Lorenz 0-' Elmwood acted as auctioneer. l‘aking his place on the platform. he was greeted by enthusiastic cheers from his numerous friends in this community, who were delighted lu- consented to take charge of the dis posal of the dainty parcels. The committee is very grateful to Mr. Lorenz for undertaking that. the most- diflicult portion of the evening’s entertainment. But words arein- adequate to describe his manner of performing these duties. One muSt hear to appreciate. His wit, good . nature and patience under all circum stances could not be surpassed. The boxes were quickly sold due to the wise supervision of Mr. Lorenz and the liberality of the people.
