GARDINER LOCAL MATTERS 5 JOURNAL TELEPHONE’ 48-4. FABLERS' INSTITUTE Closes Successful Two Days Session at G. A. R. Hall, Gardiner. "In all my experience in institute v/ork I have never put in five weeks' jp which so much interest was shown or so much attention given the speak ers as on this trip through Maine,’’ said Forest Henry of Dover, Minn., to the Journal Wednesday afternoon at the close of the first two-days session of the institute held in Maine. The Wednesday sessions of the insti tute held at Grand Army hall were quite as well attended as those of the opening day, showing that the interest taken by local agriculturists in the message of the speakers from out of the State had by no means abated, for many of fhose present had also been in attendance at the Tuesday meet ings. Andrew Elliott of Galt, Ont., was the first si>eaker at the forenoon session. His theme was "The Canadian Bacon Hog.” He briefly outlined the reasons that compelled Canadians to grow the bacon hog, including the shutting out of Canadian barley from the American market. Continuing he said: The best bacon, namely Wiltshire ba con, is not produced in the United .States and sells at from three to seven tents per pound over the fat American product. It is a perishable product and ought to be consumed six or eight weeks after slaughter. There are only two emphatically bacon brands of hogs, ihe Yarmouth and the Yorkshire. From p;0 to 220 pounds is the Ideal weight. The bacon hog should have a light l ead, light neck and shoulder, long deep"side, full yet trim ham, with no undue fat, yet fleshy and firm, not over j 14 inch of fat along the back, and that evenly laid on. In preparing the bacon the spine and rib points are removed, leaving the most of the rib in the side, and should er. side and ham being left in one piece. After being lightly salted the sides are sent across the water to be lightly smoked and dried previous to placing in the market. Canada exports from $12,000,000 to $20,000,000 worth of bacon per year. Two litters per year of the pigs are grown. The summer bred hogs are pas tured on rye clover, pease and barley clover, a continuous supply being kept up, following each other. Mixed grain, ground, is fed in such a manner that a steady gain is made from birth to 200 pounds weight, say at seven months. Fall litters are housed comfortably and given cement floors and troughs, and elevated sleeping pens. They are fed on pulped roots, turnips or mangles, mixed 24 hours ahead. The litters are given more meal as the finishing point approaches. Bedding is used as an ab sorbant, as. of that of all kinds of four footed stock, hog manure Is the most valuable. Exercise should be given and some charcoal fed to the pigs in the winter. Ashes, coal or wood are relish ed and assist in producing digestion. Breed carefully, feed economically, market intelligently and success will fallow. Forest Henry discussed "Potato Cul ture” at tile morning session. He said that the soil should be thoroughly worked in preparation for the seed. The best results were obtained from planting medium-sized seed and of the round variety, as long varieties gave too much waste. The farmer should be careful to avoid heating the seed be fore planting it as it would not grow as well. Plant ip drills rather than hills and have then run north and south, as the rows will thus shade each other from the sun. The rows should not be too far apart, in early varieties not more than 13 inches. Plant fairly deep and give level culture. Early cultiva tion may be to considerable depth but the later cultivation should be shal low, so as not to injure the*roots. In conclusion the speaker spoke of blight, lot ^nd other diseases of the potato. Mr. Elliott opened the afternoon ses sion with a spirited address upon the “Dairy Cow.” He advised the improv ing of the native cow by the use of dairy-bred bulls, pure bred and of se lected parentage. Ho brought out the principle that a dairy bull transmits the good quality of his parentage ra ttier than his own. As June conditions are ideal for the dairy cow so June conditions should bo carried on for the whole year. These conditions are abundance of succulent food, abundance of pure water, of com fort and of care. Give succulent food and nothing will do this so cheaply as feeding silage. Feed to the full. Feed cows individually. Select only the best cows. Sell boarders. What foolishness to feed a row a dollar's worth of feed and get but SO cents in return. House comfortably. The cow house should be light, wdl ventilated, warm and clean. Pasture is the cheapest feed. Don’t over pasture. "Enough pasture for three cattle and only two on It” is a good rule. Spread droppings. Harrow and re-seed, giving the pasture a year's rest to recuperate. Clover hay silage and a little grain is the best feed. Cot ton seed meal is the cheapest protein hearing food, but should not be fed too heavily, not more than four pounds per day at two feeds. Roots, the man gle preferably, will give succulence to the ration. To Heal a Sore The following has been tried with wonderful success in heading any sore: Wet a cloth with X-Zalia and place it directly on the sore. K^ep wetting it With this liquid X-Zalia which can be had at ahy druggist’s. This liquid "ill heal any ulcer, rashes, running sores, or open wound. FIRE AT COLONIAL^ BEACH. Oyster Packing House, Planing Mill and Basket Factory Burned. Colonial Beach, Va., Nov. 24.—This town has boon visited by a fire which brought a loss of 58,000 and destroyed three of the largest industries of which the town could boast. Gouldman's oyster packing house, a planing mill and a basket factory, to gether with a small dwelling, were swept away. Rut for the heroic efforts of vol unteer firemen, the loss woulip have teen touch heavier. No one wits hurt. Several persons will be thrown out Of employhient temporarily. The Insurance carried will not cd the H The cow is sensitive; give her com fort. Keep both milk and cow clean, for milk is used without cooking and any undesirable' taint introduced we get in intensified form, because most germs introduced into milk increase very rapidly. Kindness is amply repaid. The cow being of a nervous nature re sents ill usage, Milk quickly and thor oughly, the last of. the milk is much richer in fat than the first. Judgment, care and kindness are amply repaid by the dairy cow. "Corn Cultivation’’ was the closing subject of the two-days meetings and that was discussed by Forest Henry. He said that the ground should be carefully prepared and plenty of se lected seed sown. The corn should only be planted deep enough to cover well as com was a sun plant. The most thorough cultivation should be used during the entire season, talcing care to cultivate shallower as the corn grdws larger, in order not to injure its growth. He advocated home raising of the best varieties from individual ears qf selected seed rather than sending away for seed. Both speakers answer ed many questions during their re marks, all present following them with close interest. Thanksgiving at the Coliseum.

TO CURE YOUR RHEUMATISM Why Not Employ a Method of Treat ment That is Nof an Experiment? Inflammatory rheumatism, acute rheumatism and rheumatic fever are different names for the same thing. It comes on with hardly any warn ing. The pain is severe and there is a tendency of the disease to attack the heart, when it may have fatal results. Anyone who has suffered from in flammatory rheumatism knows that the usual treatment is highly unsatis factory. External application of hot cloths and liniments and internal doses of salicylates to relieve the pain are not enough, for they do not drive the poison from the blood and the sufferer is liable to renewed attacks whenever exposed to draughts, cold or dafnp ness. To cure rheumatism so that it will stay cured the rhouma|»c poison in the biood must be driven out and the blood made rich and red. When the blood is pure there can be no rheumatism. Dr. Williams’ pink Pills build up the* blood and cure rheumatism in the only logical way. Mr. Howard C. Decker of No. 42 Butler street, Paterson, N. J., owes his cure of this painful disease to Dr. Wil liams’ Pink Pills. He tells of his ex perience as follows: _ “I suffered with inflammatory' rheu matism for about two years and think it was hereditary in my ease as my father was alllirted with it for years. I was confined to my bed with it for nearly three months following the first attack. The rheumatism was in my knees and legs and finally worked down to the feet and ankles. For eighteen months I was unable to walk on my left heel. My knees, ankles and feet were swollen and I could not put on my shoes. 1 suffered with terrible pain«, even the weight of the bed clothes on my limbs caused me intense agony. For a short time the rheu matism was-in my arms and shoulders.. I was helpless and unable to work. I was extremely nervous and had no con trol over my muscles. I lost in weight from 181 pounds to 1ST pounds. •'Different doctors pronounced my case incurable and- their medicines did not have much effect. I was finally led to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills through reading a newspaper. My general condition gradually- im proved under this treatment and after giving tlte pills a fair trial I was en tirely cured. I can now walk as well as ever and have no pain at all. I have regained my weight and never felt better in my life.

Purus, I’li, Prop., is growing steadily larger, the people are being eonvijjeed that we are correct in our theory that stomach and liver troubles are responsible for most of the ill health prevalent. In earlier days when the people were eloser to nature and men and wo no n work d all day out of doors, digging their existence from the soil, the tired, droopy, half sick people that are now so common, did not exist, there was none of this half sick all of the time condition, with which so many are afllicted. Th Indians in their natural state did not have chronic debility, or nervous exhaustion. They were not shut up all day with no out door exercise. They did not overload their stomaens with food when their bodies did not have enough work, to justify it. They did not fill their systems with strong mineral and poisonous medicines. The civilized people have been doing this for years. I.ook at the results. Most people are half sick. Our representa tive talks with hundreds of people. Very few know what is the matter. Some say nervousness, some kidney trouble, otlj^rs liver complaint, constipation, gas in the stomacdi, heart trouble, or lung trouble. Some have treated for all these diseases. A very comnWn complaint is all run down, or no appetite. We know all this chronic ill health is caused primarily by stomach and liver trouble.
