And when w* think of the large quantities of food fed during tha finwhiog peri*d, aad of value f the eaine, it will bo at one* apparent that in* work should bo dene in a way that will ousahin* economy an*ff*ctiven< i> a mark*.', degree.

I'he true system would sesm to bo a m*aa between thsae, that i* te say to provide shod room which would b* warm enough to keep th* animals in comfort, wh*n in th* same aad in ths coldest days of tbe ytar. In thu way th*y would b* fed, but they woald not b* tiod. Thu would moan that they would need to be dehorned.

But of oourae, they would need to he plentifully supplied with bedding front day to day. But one of tho greatest advantage* of feeding eat tie thai arise* from th* fin* Quality of th* manure. Th* litter, th* topping*, and th* liquid portion* are blended in the mo*t effective manner poa- ible. Nothing is lost. Th* manure tnu* mad* may be drawn to the fields at once whenever desired, for in the sheds it would nsv*r freeze, sheds in which manure frone* would l>o too cold for cattle that were being fattened. Such manur* coulii b* applied without a particle of loos in th* manurial constituents. Some feeder* en gage in the work chiefly for the saks of the manur* which it furnishes them. They have l*arat>d by *xp*ri*nc* that the fer- tility tha* obtained ha* rendered great service to them in conducting the ordinary operation* of the farm. Of course, it i* very desirable to hav* a profit in addition to th* manure, and thi* can usually b* obtained where judgment is used in buying th* eattle for feeding and alao in feeding them. Bookkeeping- on the Farm. Th* keeping of accounts is almost an absolut* neoeaaity to a farmer s succeaa. If ws should b* asked what is th* great himlerance to th* advancement of the or- dinary farmer*, w* should reply the want of come systematic mod* of keeping farm accounts. If w* should aak them th* co*t of raising 90 bushels of corn; or of making 100 Ibs, of pork or beef, how many could . give an answer based on actual calculation? Bat tew of the farmers can giv* you tho n*t income of their farm* and ia reality they don't know whether they ar* progress. lag or retrograding. What would be th* future destiny of tho busiuss man wer* h* to conduct his affair* in such a shiftloa* way ? Th* reason farmers do not mor* frequent. ly fall is that their busine** is comparative- ly limited. Tho farm sustains the family aad ths family takes oar* of the farm. How ar* wo to decade what oropa pay boater te raiae if w* keep no accoo.nl of Msotrtipsn*a*T kiaay ar* ta* fanners ta do not believe tn experimenting, for they have fallen into th* old rut of their ances- tors and refuse to get out. But the time is near at hand when they will b* compelled to adopt new way* and different pUns or fall behin I the more enterprising. With some it ie a great task to writ* down io th* evening the result* of th* day. 1 hey can tell ia the field for twelve hour*. hot half an beur with th* pan ia not to b* thought of. Possibly some of the younger member* of tbe family would b* willing to undertake ths work if th* father would eneoarage them. At ail event*, an account- book should be kept, in which the farm i* barged with all it* xpena** and credited with all it* receipts. And a minute record ibould be kept of each crop, showing cost ef labor, fertituar, seed, etc., and crediting it witn aU the return*, whether disposed f in th* market or fail on th* farm. Th* saosa attention should b* given the live stock, so a* to decide by actual calcu- lation, not by more goeeework, whieb breed is th* m*Mt profitable to raise. Th* qnoa- ti*a that ia a* present agitating th* mind* of th* farmer* in thi* locality is, will it pay bettor to feed whoa* to hog* than to mar- k*t it ? How are they to decide It unless by experimenting and keeping an account ?

I finally wont to the lien*rai Hospital, where tbe physician in marge advise.) me Lo stay, which I did. After remaining there for five weeks with no benefit, a consultation of physicians was held and aa operation suKgrittod, to vhicii I trrs nme agroed. Attar th* operation wa* performed I was no better, my condition remaining abso- lutely unchanged.

On* Saturday, some months ago, while walking along Bleury street, having seen the advertisement of I >r. Williams' Pink Pill* in th* Montreal Herald, I stepped at John T.

But I felt encnuraced and got three more boxes, determined to make a thorough trial of I'mk Piils.

When I had finished the third box my urine wa* quite clear, for th* first time in three years. 1 was delighted, and continued takmg tho pill* until I had fiuiahad six boxes, I am strong now and have had no recurrence of the trouble, aad s* you can ae*, th* flush of health shows iteelf in my face.
