It is difficult t0 estimate the total tnlue of animal feeds that provide for the up-keep of these pests, but the loss in feed and animal pro- ducts must be extraordinarily high. Perhaps one of the wmmonest parasites known to the farmer is Bots. this pest causes the greatest zimount of annoyance, particularly udirng ilze hot days when the horse is working, and also the must seri- nus-loss. There are three species of but flies whose larvae infest the horse: The Throat bot is Mthe least cammon of this species, and usu- ully attaches in the duodenum, but IS often found in thestomach. Oc- casionnlluihe bots congregate in ihb throat of the horse and obstnrct breathing. The Common bot fly hovers near the knees of the horse and attaches il-s eggs in this region. The larvae develop in n few days and the horse in biting it slegs releases the larvae which, becoming attached to the teeth and membrane, are swallowed. They thou fasten themselves to the stomach wall, and (mdergo develop- ment during the following months. and passing out with the manure during the spring and developing into the adult fly in a few days during tho hot wcstlier. The Nose but is the 111051; serious pest, causing intense irritation to the horse. The eggs are laid on the lip hairs. and the tickling thus canted. along with the darting in of the flies, provides annoyance which sometimes causes serious runaways. The life history is some- what similar to that of the Com- mon bot fly. and although there are usually fewer larvae found in the. stomach o! the horse" it is nevertheless the greater plague of ihe- two. The larvae first attach, themselves in the stomach of the horse, then in the spring gradually loosen themselves and attach themselves again in the rectum and finally move to the anus. The larvae sometimes congregate in clusters in the rectum and have been known ‘to completely close the passage. ' Horses badly infested with bots are usually unthrifty and thin con- ditlon. The infestation causes in- ternal irritation interference with digestion and the free passage of foods, and sometimes tho bots are responsible for impaction and other disorders. Collcs in u. great majority of cases are due to but infestation. By umcrptlon of valuable foods. the blood of the animal be- comes thinned, and the general condition lends itself admirably to pneumonia, influenza and other horse diseases. It is estimated’ that fully 90 per cent of horses pastured during summer are infested with buisjivery farmer should udruister treatment at the proper time and rid his horses if possible from this common parasitic infliction. A horse in good condition and health and well nurtured may be able tn stand the drug of a few bots in his stomach, but horses in poor condi- tlon, acting host to hunderds of these parasites or in some cases over a thousand, cannot long en- dure such ravenous demand; on their systems. Colts are particularly susceptible to this condition, us they are usu- ally on pasture during the period when the ‘bot fly is prevalent. Thus. rough coated, unthrifty horses and colts would be improved in the majority of cases if prompt and proper treatment were admin- istered for intemai parasites. The treatment is simple rnd cheap and may be given by any careful horseman. The Department of Arrlculture is arranging this season to supply at cost I supply of Bot remedies to Farmers‘ Institutes and other or- ganizations that Cooparatlveiy un- dertake Bot Extermination, and u number of communities have ul- roady signified their-intentions of conducting war on this pest, through combined action. The suggestion is unvanced that districts organize, congregate their horses at a central point on I oer- tain day and make arrangements with some veterinarian or other qualified person to administer the treatment, or arrangements may be made for a visit to each stable. The equipment for treating may be secured by each-community or through the party conducting the work. The trial quantity oi’ treat- ment acquired for the whole dis- trict should be ordered through une preson perfergbly the accre- tary of, an exlstihk organization. thus secure the advantage of the lowest possible cost. Bot treatment need not be mi- ministered more than once per year, but annual treatment should be practiced. Before treatment the stomach should be emptied.

Allen Everett of Cranford, N.

The prize fish was taken on the southwest Mir- amlchi River on September 34m and its weight when taken from the water was twenty 1101-11145. length 38 inches, girth 20 inches. Guide Raymond Currie, of Freder- icton, N. B., was with Mr. Everett when he caught the prize-winning salmon. Presentation of the trophy will take place in New York City during the National Sportsman's Show to be held in Grand Central Palace week of February 29th W March 7th in which the 11101111109 of New Brunswick will be repre- sented by an exhibit.

Our farmers have their ordinary chores to attend to, but between these and in the long winter even- ings there are many hours which may be profitably employed out- side of necessary duties. For those of u: who wish to take advantage of it the library oflere the chance of using] some of this leilure to ctm- tinue our education. We may not have had the chance of l. college education but there is l. way in which we can help ourselves. It might aumrise some people to know how reuiere have been helping themselves to education through this "leisure-time College.” We know of one man who in the past two years has read over fifty books embracing such studies as plants. flowers and blrdl. By the aid of the books recommended to him by the library stuff he has been able to classify muoilcally all the plants that have come under his observa- tion. He has also been able to recog- nlze the various kinds of birds by name and to learn much of their habits, which of them. are insecti- vorous and therefore helpful in his farming operations and a great denl more which he has found ab- aorbingly interesting. There may or may not he money in such study but it gives him a. companionship with nature which is much more to him. than the mere making of dollars. Another man ovcr seventy years of age interested in the drawing and sketching of his little granddaughter seven years of age. asked the library staff for such books as might be calculated to de- velop this cmbryo-talent and two boys from the country make it their business during every visit to Charlottetown to call at the library headquarter-u to ask for more and more hooks on aeroplane construc- tion and their taste is always grati- fied by the reoommentatlbn of such books as lie best calculated in serve their purpose. Another man, also from the country. but whose early education had been neglected. is an omnivorous render. He seems to be equally interested in Qriental Philosophy. fiction and Science. Many women who take a keen in- temst in rug and quilt making and similar undertakings: lock to the library for information and assist- ance and these are readily provided. In Denver. Colorado, some time ago an adult school was orennimd and has now enrolled over 10.000 pupils. ranging in age from eighlMn to eighty years end over. Their studies include any kind of infor- mation theyqnuy be in search of. The libraries aotasadvlsors and are ulweys ready to prescribe such books as may meet the require- ments of the student. Age in no way controls the pursuit of the know- ledge, these men and women are in search of. The only thing that counts, the desire to leum. and the ability to learn, is like learning it- eelf. unlimited. There is no end to lelming. The better w: of every men's education is that which he acquires for himself and it is for that that the good library furnishes the opportunity and the means. The Carnegie Library constitutes one of the most effective means of education, not. second in impor- tanoe to the schools and colleges but equal and aupplem ftary. We make a serious mistake when we imagine that our education ceases when we leave the school. 1t never ceases while life lasts and the mind retains its grip. 1n patronizing the llbrflry. in locking to it for lush help and guidance as we need ‘In keep on going to school with cur- selveg to the end d! the journey. _..__._..;_..__.
