The chicks should have 1 Ib. | of semiâ€"solid buttermilk to each 4 !poundu of meal, and 1 pint of Cod | Liver Oil to each 100 lbs of feed. Give the chicks all they will eat every night after the first two or three days. Tomatoes may be expensive to buy if you have not home canned, but they put pep in the flock. Minced small potatoes or peelings, minced, are good once a day. If you wish to give exercise use aâ€" bout a tablespoonful of commercial chick scratch grain two or three times a day to 200 chicks. ficatter it in the litter. Many of the prepared chick feeds are good and should be fed according to the directions of the manufacture. Let the chicks out of doors as soon as the weather permits. Some direct sunlight assists the chicks in growth and digesting the feed. When the green grass comes, allow the chicks outside runs as soon as they will go outdoors. Do not raise the chicks on the same ground as you used for fowls last year. Intestinal worms, etc., may be in the ground. It is desirable to raise the chicks on new ground each year if possible. + Many chicks are ruined by rearing on infected soil. Keep your colony house clean and use a good clean litter. This should be renewed at frequent intervals, or when it becomes soiled or dirty. _ It is important to have good clean drinking fountains and never aliow them to go dry . They may be raised or put on boards after the first few days, so as to prevent the chicks from seratching them full of litter.

He has been called the ‘man‘s poet.‘ As workman, forest ranger and sportsman, on snowshoes or ski, he has roamed the wilderness he loves. We quote from "The song of the Rebel : "Take me by the hand, you storm where the little rulés command: Lead me far beyond the city With its hundred aisles of pity ; Take me as you take the legions of the dead leaves from the land" "Take me by the hand, you storm winds, take me firmly by the hand: Lead me far beyond this prating, Registered Shorthprn Bull, 1 year old and Heavy draught Gelding rising 4 years old, broken.

McMillan, one of the piâ€" oneers of the district, Mr. James Mark, at the age of 81 years. Born in Aberdeen, Scotand, he came to Canada with his parents when eight years of age. His mothâ€" er, nee Mary Ironsides, with her husâ€" band, John Mark, settled in Fergus, later moving to Egremont. Her five years in public life brought her poise, a flair of dressing, and she never wants partner." "Miss MacPhail . is having a wonâ€" derful time. There is a press of claimants around her chair. She risâ€" es for the dance. ‘But you can‘t give it to him,‘ comes a complaint. ‘I asked for the second dance two weeks ago,‘ and an insistâ€" ent M. P. reasserts his claim and whisks his prize off into the oneâ€" step. She dances well, does this lady M.P. and she looks well. "Miss MacPhail is no wallflower." Such is the declaration of the Ottawa correspondent of the Toronto Star, who sends to his paper a racy deâ€" scription of the reception and dance given at the Parliament Buildings, Ottawa, by the wives of the Cabinet Ministers,. (By the way all the Minâ€" isters are married except Premier King and the Minister of Public Works, Hon. Mr .Elliott, member for West Middlesex.) The correspondent declares : Fifty three years ago last New Year‘s Dav, Jas Mark married Cath arine Ann McelInnes of Egremont. After spending about four years in the Township of Proton, they moved to the Mark homestead on the 12th con., Egremont, where they lived unâ€" til 1901 when they gave up farming and went to live in Orchard, where they conducted a general store and Post Office for 12 years. They then sold out and went to live in Mt For est. Here they lived until three weeks‘ previous to Mr Mark‘s death, when on account of failing health, they came to live with their daughâ€" ter, Mrs Thos. McMillan. The pall bearers were Jas Mcin nes, Jas .McEachern, David McInnis, Robt. Galbraith, _ Abraham â€" Tuck, John Troup.

Inâ€" terment at Reid‘s cemetery. Tho‘ crippled with rheumatism for many years, Mr Mark was wonderfulâ€" ly active and enjoyed fairly good health until the last few months. His sterling _ Christian â€" character, cheerful and unselfish disposition, endeared him to many friends who will long remember his kindly deeds. He is survived by his widow and seven children : Isabella (Mrs Conâ€" rad Schenk) of Egremont ; John, of Sask. ; Alfred of Oklahoma ; Ida, (Mrs. Duffus), Jessie (Mrs Stephenâ€" son andâ€" Agnes, all of Sask. : Florâ€" ence, (Mrs Thos.

In John McNaughton‘s life of Strathcona and Walter Vaughan‘s life of Van Horne were the ideal books for the purpose,. They are, of themâ€" selves, a rich storehouse of information concerning the founding and building of the West. The dynamic force of Van Horne built the Canaâ€" dian Pacific, the railroad that made Confederation an actual fact. 1His work was and still is an epic of Canadian history and he, like Strathcona, rightly belongs to that company of giants who may properly be termed "Makers of Canada."
