He is sixty years of age, a field s marshal in tho British army and was a personal aid decamp to the late king, who desired that he receive hia present appointment. This is not his first trip to Canada, as he served in the Fenian raid of 1870. He is grand master of the Free Masons of England. Besides the title by which he is commonly known he is the Earl of Sussex, a prince of the United Kingdom and of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and duke of Saxony. His wife was Princess Louisa Margaret of Prussia. Various reports have been current from time to time, particularly from Canadian sources, that the duke of Connaught would not be the next gover nor general of Canada, although on the original announcement of his appoint ment. shortly after the death of King Edward, it was officially stated that it had been the wish of the late king that the duke of Connaught, his brother, should goto Canada as governor general.

Ordinarily it attacks children between the ages of IV£ and 3 years, but older children and adults are not immune. Although the death rate is not so high as in cerebrospinal meningitis, the train of permanent deformities which follow infantile paralysis makes the disease fully as much dreaded. Only about four or five per cent, of those attacked Buccumb, but fully 80 per cent, of the cases result in permanent paralysis. Infantile paralysis is a comparatively new disease. Its symptoms have been described in medical literature for about 25 years, but only In the last four years, since the epidemic of 1907, has it been brought strongly to the attention of the profession in America. j ADVOCATES GOOD HIGHWAYS ~~'"""""""-I W.

THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1911 SHIRE HORSE ESSENTIALLY ENGLISH FARMERS' OWN Animal Has Improved Vastly In Recent Years, In Uniformity of Type, in Fiet, Action, Pasterns and Quality of Hair and Bone. kAA/ V I "y y#^'"T '■j English Shire Mare and Colt. (By G. T. BARROWS, England.) The Shire horse is essentially the English farmer's own. Across the border the Clydesdale holds sway. It is flattering to the English breeder to know that America and Canada are now taking more Shires than they have ever done before. England today is being constantly scoured by American buyers for the right kind of Shire horses. The English Shire horse has im proved vastly of recent years, in uni formity of type, in feet, action and has vastly better pasterns and quality of hair and bone. The farmer's brood mare—the rent payer—is a real feminine type, name ly, neither of the gelding or the stal lion appearance. She is always mated to a stallion of great masculinity, pos sessing good, wide, strong feet," and is naturally a free mover, with flat, sound bone, of strong consittutlon and as big as possible. In the large studs the greatest care Is taken over the matter of suitable stallions selected. Very few traveling stallions are to be found without a veterinary surgeon's certificate of soundness. If anything, some of the farmers who have found breeding a rapid means of acquiring wealth, are In HORSE SHOEING IS SCIENCE Mo Man Is Fully Xciulppsd for Task Unless He Understands Anotorny of Animal's Foot- Advance Being Made. By WM. J. KELLY. Formerly the ordinary blacksmith, who knew very little about the under lying principles that should govern horse shoeing, was called upon to shoe horses. As a result very much of the work done was inferior and such work re-acted in many instances against the usefulness of the horse that was thus shod. The advance that has been made In this branch of blacksmithing during recent years, has been very great. The work of shooing horses is so variable In its requirements that no small degree of skill is required on the part of those engaged in the busi ness. It would perhaps be correct to say that no horse shoer Is fully equipped for his work who does not understand considerable about the anatomy of the horse's foot. He should also be able to detect defects in the animal's loco motion and should know how to shoe PRACTICAL ARCHED ROOF BARN 112 | " 40?- o" I The accompanying plnr. of arched , roof will not need any bracing, pro viding it la built on a wood frame.

Shows are the best advertisement that the English tenant-farmer has for getting rid of his wares to the landlord or the rich breeder. Shows in an English summer are as plentiful as sparrows. They are held upon the slightest provocation, where two or three horse breeders are gath ered together. One of the most gratifying features of the Shire horse breeding in the old country, is that the rich man settles in the legality, or suddenly becomes prominent as a breeder of first-class animals. He spends no end of money on buying and maturing. These often fall into the hands of the farmer cheaply, and very often the farmer sells back their offspring at considerable prices. Shire service is cheap in England, when one considers the enormous out#, lay of some of the breeu. *, and the tenant farmer, or the farmer whose land is only rented, has all the bene fits of his rich proprietor's patronage. The old country may have old fashioned ways, but the farmer knows when he Is well off and he knows that to raise Shire horses suc cessfully is to have a bank balance and to have no haunting fears from a disastrous season. the horse in such a way that the evils arising from these defects will be less ened or overcome entirely. Neighborhood Exchanges. The difficulty of exchanging tools and labor with neighbors is in the personality. Some men will expect to use borrowed tools all through the favorable weather and then return them in a damaged condition too late to be of much use to the owner. In borrowing labor this kind of neighbor will work the hired man half to death and then in returning the labor spend half his time telling stories. In ex changing labor or anything else pick out a farmer who will practice the golden rule. New Mint Region. Peppermint growers of New York and Michigan will meet competition from the reclaimed lands of Louisiana. A distillation plant is also in opera tion. A party of expert agriculturists recently inspecting the region were convinced that the crop can be grown in limited quantities at a good profit. Peppermint oil was imported Into the United States during the fiscal year to the extent of 1,238 pounds, worth $G,416, while the exports of American peppermint oil amounted to 161,811 pounds, worth $288,318. placid about two ftet centers.

It first came when she wa3 between three and four weeks old, appearing on her head. I used every thing imaginable and had one doc tor's bill after another, but nothing cured it. Then the eczema broke out so badly behind her ear that I really thought her ear would come off. For months I doctored it but to no avail. Then it began at her nose and her eyes were nothing but sores. I had to keep her in a dark room for two weeks. The doctor did no good, so I stopped him coming. "For about two weeks I had used Cuticura Soap for her every day, then I got a box of Cuticura Ointment and began to use that. In a week there was a marked improvement. In all I used two cakes of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment and my baby was cured of the sores. This was last November; now her hair is growing out nicely and she has not a scar on her. I can not praise Cuti cura enough, I can take my child any where and people are amazed to see her without a sore. From the time she was four weeks old until she was three years she was never without the terrible eruption, but now, thanks to Cuticura, I have a well child." (Sign ed) Mrs. H. E.

Even the Bank of England has not been eniirely free from runs nor from the necessity of saving Itself by strategy. In 1745, for instance, it was forced to employ agents to present notes, which were paid as slowly as possible in sixpences, the cash being immediately brought in by another door and paid in again, while anxious holders of notes vainly tried to se cure attention. In 1825 too only the accidental discovery of 700,000 £1 notes saved the bank from stopping payment.—London Chronicle. USE ALLEN'S FOOT-E.tSE the antiseptic powder to be shaken Into the shoes.
