same vim that the player does his game, it would be much easier. also weed out all non-essentials and apply temperance to house furnishings Furniture should be plain and well made, with few crevices and oorners in which dust collects. Great care should be taken with the house plans. having rooms and fittings arranged to save work. Provide yourself with labor~saving applicances that are really helpful. Linoleum on your kitchen floor, castors to the table, cisterns, washing machines, mangles, carpet sweepers, string mop and dust- ing mit, also a well trained son or daughter is a very good labor saver. ‘ Labor-saving devices by Miss Wat. son. of McDonald Institute, proved most interesting. The first economy of time, muscle and energy is asound body, and if no: naturally gifted with such a body, we should do all in our power to check a. downward tendency. Good habits should be cultivated and the muscles used properly, and it is possible to do this in our house-work, Standing on the balls of the feet rather than on the heels. also sitting on the end of the backbone rather than the middle of it. The woman who groans and thinks she is too good for house-work is likely to have a hard time. If the house-keeper would take hold of her work with the was followed by a discussion led by Miss Rife. in which the ladies signi- fled their intention of fighting con- sumption, and a resolution was adopt- ed that the Convention desired to express their sympathy and make application for affiliation with the association. 1n the afternoon Dr. Hodgetts, Health InSpeCtor, addressed an over. flowing house on “Prevention and Treatment of Tuberculosis.” There was a difl’erence between that and consumption. He refuted the idea that the Streets swarm with tubercu- lar bacilli, which cannot longlive out. doors. He recommended sunshine. breathing pure. fresh air. eating sub- stantial and nourishing food. such as milk. eggs. meat, and all that can be thoroughly digested. This address The next speaker was Prof. Hays, Assistant Secretary of Agriculture at Washington He emphasized the need of more practical education for women. and hoped the consolidated schools supplemented by the Agricul. tural College. for both boys and girls, also our rural school teacher and home makers make an aim of inter- esting the children in the farm home. Putnam was very optimiStic in re- gard to the work which the Women’s InStitute is doing and is capable of doing in the making of happy homes. He referred to the fact that there are enthusiaStic Inscitutes holdin g monthly meetings in Rainy River, Thunder Bay and Temiscaming, and urged weaker Struggling societies noc to be discouraged. During the past year the growth has been encourag- ing. At the end of June there were 10500 members. In planning for the work he suggested that prizes for a Special exhibit in connection either with the Institute meetings or fall fairs. It might take the form of either vegetables, flowers or baking. A special effort should be made to in- terest the girls in the Work, asits success depends more on the enthus- l iasm of the members and eficiency of oficers. Much interest was taken in a shirt \Vednesday morning, Dec. 12th, found Mrs. Rozers (Holstein dele- gate) and myself along with avery enthusiastic throng at Massey Hall 0. A. C. After singing the National Anthem and prayer by Rev. Dr. Bethune. the Opening remarks and welcome was given by Hon. N. Mon- tieth and replied to by Miss Agnes Smith, of Hamilton. on behalf of del- egates. A review of the year’s Work was given by Mr. Putnam, whose personal magnetism. alertness and evident conviction of the importance; of the work gave everyone the opin-l ion that he was the right man in the] right place. He realized that the: home. the human element on thel farm. should not occupy a secondl glace to the crops or stock. Mn! After tea we went to \Vinter Fair and saw more poultry than I had ever seen before. from the largest bronze turkey to the tiny pigeons and part ridge; altogether 4000 on exhibition. Then we went to hear the addresses on poultry. presided over by Hon. Nelson Montieth. box stall had a reccrd printed on the door of 96 lbs. of milk per day and 103 lbs. of butter in a month. After inspecting cows and creamery we walked back to the Clty to see the Stores, which were beautiful One thing I noticed in connection with the poultry buildings was how cold they were kept. The south doors and windows seemed to be all Open in marked contrast to the dairy buildings, which we next visited, where it was very warm, clean and comfortable. One Holstein cow in a After being introduced to Mr. Put- man and receiving tickets for the Winter Fair in the afternoon, we took a. street car for the College, saw through the McDonald Institute, Museum and Conservatories, where the display of flowers was very beau- tiful. REPORT OF WOMEN'S INSTITUTE MEETINGS. DEAR FRIEst,â€"As you did me the honor to send me to the Guelph Con- vention, I would like to tell you something of what we saw and heard. ‘Ve went down on Tuesdav, Dec. 11th, reached the City Hall where We found Misses Miller and Maddock. in charge, who were very busy sendxng delegates to their lodgings fo: the time of the fair. { By Mrs- D.

McCrie. Miss Shut- tleworth spoke of the cow being one of man’s best friends and to treat her Lindly. In churning do not have cream too old nor add sweet cream to sour, but churn sweet cream alone. In summer have cream test about 47 degrees, and have it higher in win- ter. The first thing in butter was flavor, second firmness and texture, third color, and lastly salt, g lb. salt to one pound of butter. The next Institute meeting to be' held at the home of Mrs. S.

He emphasized the need of exercising taste in our clothing and surroundings. and stated that we should understand mixing of col- ors so as to produce harmony and to make them useful in the furnishing of our home. President Creelman, of O. A. 0. followed by a kindly greeting and encouragement to the Women’s In stitute, after which Prof. Evans gave a very instructive lecture on ‘° Color Mrs. McClure, of Huttonville. pre- sided at the afternoon session, and much interest was taken in a very practical address by Dr. Webster, 01' the College of Dental Surgery, Toron- to. He dwelt largely upon the rela- tion which a healthy mouth and clean, whole teeth bear to the general health. Care of the teeth cannot be- gin too soon. and if they are kept in good condition until sixteen there will be little trouble in keeping them until late in life. Also the import- ance of caring for temporary teeth} of children. Dr. Annie Ross, of Mc-l Donald Institute. also spoke on the good eEects of thorough mastication. Mr. C. C. James, Deputy Minister of Education, gave a very foreible argument in favor of agriculture be- ing taught our boys and girls in pub- lic schools. He appealed to the ad- vanced interest of agriculture. If people made up their minds that their boys and girls were going to have an agricultural education it would be done. Mr. J. J. Kelso, Superintendent. of neglected children for Oncario, out- lined the modern method of child saving. and made a. Strong appeal to us for "fresh air” work for children. The subject was continued by Miss Shuttleworth. who spoke on “Care and handling of milk.” Also by Dr. McMurchy, who created it from a doctor’s point of view. On Thursday morning meeting was opened by Mr§_4_.Knowles, of Hespeler, fiand an excellent address on “ Milk Production ” was given by Prof. Dean, 0. A. 0. He called attention to the nutritive value in milk, that one quart had as much food material as one lb. of beef. He advised us to keep good cows, one that will give 600 lbs. of milk andmake 250 lbs. of butter in a year a". a cost of not more than $30 for her feed. Prof. Dean closed by urging the necessity of giv- ing our families pure clean milk. Mrs. Wells, of Syracuse, gave us a recipe for a happy home. which is a follows: “ Take cheerfulness, juStice and love. mix well and take in large doses. Cheerfulness is the essence of happiness, which is the sunshine to a plant; without it love dies. The mother owes it to her children to be just and to give them a happy home. Surround children with good influ- ences. Suggestion is the birth of‘ thought. There should be justicel between husband and wife. It was not fair to have one purse and it in one pocket. Neither should one child receive more favors than another, and make the boy’s room as pretty as his sister’s. Lastly comes the love that is unselfish. that will endure and keep us loyal to each other and our homes.” BRANCHES There was also some beautiful table linen shown which had been dressed by the mangle. Miss Watson closed her address by telling us that the best labor saver is the woman who is master of the situation. waisc suit and apron worn by two of the girl students. These were made of dark blue cofion to illustrate a convenient working dress.

A massive steel snow plungh which was built here has been an objeCt of curiosity during the past few days. Some idea of its conStruction can be gathered by imagining avast scoop shovel fastened to an immense steel lbox on wheels. On the top of the box is a movable contrivance like a plow with two mould boards which are intended to force the snow to the sides of the track. The plow is to be taken to the North West where its usefulness will be severely tested. It is to be hoped that the venture will prove a success as considerable capital has been eXpended in build- ing the plow. GREY OLD BOYS’ ASSOCIATION.
