Durham people who bought the simple mixture of buckthorn bark glycerine, etc., known as Adlcxxi- k3. are surprised at the INSTANT effect of a SINGLE SPOONFUL.

When a house in Boston was employed for the receipt of letters for and from the old world. In 1672 the government of New York colony established a post to go monthly from New York to Boston.

The ' ' few months had been very great. No .v with Zbetter organization and .vith the {favorable readjustment vvhich had 'taken place in economic condi- tions the daily task was rot so jarduous. It was a great source 'of satisfaction that the strain ‘u'pon finance and commerce had? been borne so well. This year’s crop and our export manufactures should give Canada a great trade balance in her favor. 1v seen that they were altogether inadequate. Just as they .had blocked the Naval Bill which iwould long since have added three super dreadnoughts to the naval forces of the Empire so they had endeavored to block the Minister in preparing the mi- litia of Canada for the great em- ergency which was so soon to come upon it. In all their actions they had displayed a wilful and perverse blindness which has re-1 suite-:1 greatly to the detriment of 1 the Empire in the day of trial. In ‘ this the Liberal leaders did not represent any substantial sectionl of the Canadian people. but only: themselves and their deep resent- . ment for loss of power. This was; the key of the policy which they have maintained since the out- break of the war to hamper, em- barrass, and misrepresent the ac- tions of the Government upon every occasion and by all means ;. o O I ‘ in their power. P m- During its term of office the Government had increased the expenditure upon such services as post offices, rural mail delivery. parcel post, deveIOpment of ports and harborsw and especially in the promotion of agriculture.

In 1913 the prizes totalled $100 and of this amount $40 were claimed as prizâ€" es. Last winter the Board were :able to supplement the grant of :the County Council and make the ’totul prizes offered amount to 53150. More than half of this i'amount was claimed and the gBoard feels that in justice to Ethose who would like to exhibit ithis year that the prizes be "the ;same as they were last year. It iwill be noticed that these prizes lare only for amateurs, therefore those who have won money in open competition at any of our large fairs will be barred from; winning these prize-s.

In Indiana and Michigan the state author- ities absolutely prohibited the holding of such sales in or adjacent to areas )vhere the disease existed. The spread of the contagion in other states where this prohibition was not enforced shows the value 01' the precaution, but it requires strong and determined ac- tion on the part, of. _ the local authori- L8-â€" jing one. Previous epidemics have been Estamped out. and there is no reason to isuppose that this one will not be. Tu- berculosis, however. is a permanent menace. Its symptoms are not so im- mediately noticeable, and it is there- fore more difficult to trace the origin of the infection. but there is no doubt that it is frequently disseminated in skimmilk in the same way that the foot and mouth disease was in the in- stances described. From such experiences live stock authorities are more than ever con- vinced that skimmilk should invariably be sterilized. The danger from the foot and mouth disease is, of course, a pass- f In only a very few cases was there ‘ any attempt to conceal the existence of the diseaseâ€"in fact, public opinion 'was so strongly against this that it was practically impossible to do so. In one instance a man fed some skim- ! milk from a creamery to a calf, which ilater developed foot and mouth dis- ease. It occurred to him to kill the ' calf and say nothing about the mat- , tor. The neighbors, however, obtained ' some inkling of the facts and notified the authorities. After he had been forced to admit that he had killed the calf the body was dug up and unmis- takable marks of the disease found upon it. Within two weeks all the rest of the herd was infected and had to be killed. In addition, the owner was fined $20 or so for breaking the quarantine regulations. The sentiment of the whole community, it should be i noted, was against him. I The people not only observed the lquarantine regulations. but they did i all in their power to expedite the work 3 of slaughter. In many cases they had i the ditches in which the animals were [I to be buried dog and waiting for the i killing gangs. As a rule. no objection . was taken to the appraiser’s valuation 'of the condemned stock. which is the more surprising in view of the fact that so little was generally known of the seriousness of the disease. The farmers did not want to part with their stock. They saw that the sore mouths and feet grew better, and they had had no experience with the after elfects of the pestilence-the constant aborting, the failure to produce milk, the ability to disseminate disease months after the visible symptoms had disappeared. Nevertheless they accepted the situation, helping instead of hindering. Indiana and Michigan are cited as instances of the importance in this res. in great measure°upon the Willingness of the people to submit to the neces- sary restrictions. state officials, but of farmers and stockmen themselves. Where this co- operation has been most in evidence progress in the eradication of the dis- ease has been most rapid. The federal authorities have of course control over the movement of live stock in inter- state commerce only. The local quar- antines are established and enforced by the state. Their efficiency depends BARN PI‘ EPARED FOR FUMIGATION‘.
