Hardware DRUG STORE Six months ago or less a bashful old bachelor of 45, living not more than fourteen and a half miles from Fleeherton, became smitten with the charms of a gushing young maiden eighteenâ€"or was it the young lady who became smitten with the bach- elor and his broad acres which lay within half a mile of her home? Anyway awedding took place. On the night of the wedding a supper was given at the lride’s home. After supper the bridegroom appeared very “ fidgety” for a time, and final- ly said: "Well, it’s gitten late; guess I’ll go home. and he started for the door. The bride not to be outwitted in this manner. and catching the blushing groom by the arm. simpered: “Hold on, Joseph, you know I’m go- ing with you.” A look of abject tero ror overspread the groom’s face as be fairly yelled, “Oh, gosh ! no ! I’ve no commodation for wimmen. Only g-g got one bed!” Just how matters were settled is nobody’s business. Sufice, from latest accounts the ac- commodation- appears to have been made satisfactory all round, and Cu- pid can be seen any day now with his feet dangling over the dashboard as the Mppy couple drive to town to do their shopping.

The next morning, when the congregation assembled, two wags stood before the church door and one bet the minister would thank the Lord for the money first, and the other bet he would thank Him for the baby. \Vhen the revâ€" erend gentleman arose to pray he said: ‘Lord, we desire, also. to thank Thee for this timely succor.’ The boys are yet undecided as to which was the winner.” Anyone wishing to steal our ed1- torials should just dip in and help hi_mse_1f.

THE EDITOR’S SONG. HITS AND MISSES. 0-0 .Sw «Kw .5. 38$ E Within the last few years the con 3sumption of chickens has increased in Canada: the p1ice realized for Eplump chickens has advanced. Both E the incxease in consumption and ad E vance in price are due to the business Eof crate fattening chickens. l‘he chickens that realize the highest ' market price to-day are chickens that are fatted and prepared for market in accordance with the directions is- sued by the Dominion Department of Agriculture. Chickens from the Ontario and Quebec Illustration Stations were sold a few days ago to Mr. Gatehouse for twelve cents per pound, live weight; and to the Can- adian Produce Co , Toronto, Ont., for for eleven cts. per pound live weight. These are profitable prices that can be obtained by any farmer shipping the same quality of chick ens to Montreal or Toronto. KILLING MARKET CHICKENS. The method of killing the chicken by dislocating its neck is difierent from the old fashoned way or wring- ing or twisting the neck. When the chicken’s neck is dislocated, and the head is pulled from the neck in the manner discribed in the bulletin; ”Profitable Poultry Farming,” the.» loose unbroken skin of the neck forms a sack into which the blood of3 ; chicken flows. The body of the1 chicken is as well drained of blood as if the head were cut 0E with anE axe: the market appearance of theI chicken is improved by killing bv the dislocation. the flesh of the chicken is more juicy and edible. On theE contrary, when chickens are killed by twisting the neck, deathE results mainly from strangulationfi The body of the chicken is not freed' from blood on account of there being, no space in the neck into which theE blood can flow. The appearance of E the flesh of the chicken that hasE been killed by twisring its neck isE reddish and blood can be plainly not- 5 l ed in it. In several cities in Canada: alaw is forced prohibiting the saleE of chickens that are killed by twist- 1 ing the'neck. Hence, the senseless- ness of the ridicule by certain mem- bers of the house in debate regardingE the detail directions in “Profitable Poultry Farming” for killing the chicken by dislocating its neck, and the absurdity of making the state-E meat that dislocating the neck and‘ wringing the neck are one and the! same thing. ' E From the latter station two hund- Ered and thirty six pure bred Barred Plymouth Rock chickens 1V ere i shipped to the farmers of the \lari- ?time Provinces and sold at fifty . cents each. These pure bred cooker- fels and pullets proved very Sails-E factory, and 1equests have been re- ceived by the Department of ”Agricul- ture for more pure bied chickens this gem Aside altogether from thel Epractical Vv01k that the Illustrations E Poult try Stations are conducting, and VVhich is appreciated by the farmers: of Canada, the levenue and expen- diture account of the Poultry Divis-‘ ion show that the chickens reared at the S ations pay a good profit above cost of feed and interest on the investment The men in charge of the Station are farmers. and are thus able to impart poultry know- ledge most satisfactorily to othe1 farmers of their locality; they add dress farmers Institute meetings andE make exhibits at Agricultural tl’airs ‘ the financial and educational bene-E fits to the farmers derived from the 2 men in charge of these poultry Sta- 1 tions is far in advance of the amountE paid in salary. E . {I The criticism in the Home of Com- 5mons on July 19th of the illustration >‘poultry work of the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture was princi- ipally due to the fact that in Govern- ment business fiscal year (July lst , to June. the 30th) is used for the ' publish accounts. instead of the calg . endar year (Jan. let to Dec. 3lst). For that reason, necessary expenses incurred during the months of April, . May and June in equipping an Illu- ! stration Breeding Station with houses {incubators, brooders. eggs for hatch- l ,‘in;;, etc. were shown in the report of; t the Auditor General before the! {house, while it was not possible to] . show in the same report the revenue' f derived from the sale of the chickens 5 during the fall and winter, and 3 which revenue will appear in the Inext year’s report. This operated imost unfairiy against the Bowman-; 1' ville, Ont. Station, which was estab- ' ;lished in the Spring of 1902. The ex- ; penses of installing the Station were 1 [$225.19. and the revenue shown inf the report was only (36 cts. The rev-j enue derived from the sale of the? Bowmanville after the 1901â€"4)? year ;' closed amountd to $326.74, so that ; amount also should be added to the ;; 66 cts. shown in the report. It is 3 learned that of the $326.84, $105.94, 3 was paid to the Station by the \Vm. . Davis 00..
