BLACK BUT COMELY. This is the title of a well-known work of fiction, but this is ouite another story. Our practical obligations are such that we are bound to take advantage of anything which tends to greater achievements and success. Farmers must be on the "gui vive" to maintain their stock at their fullest producing capacity as cheaply and effectively as possible. Molasses, a waste product in the manufacture of sugar,.will keep their horses in prime condition, give a shine to their coats, increase their vigour, strengthen their constitutions.. Dairy cows, if fed on a bucket of molasses diluted with water, will keep in condition and their milk supply will be increased at least 25 per cent. Sheep will eat hay sprinkled with molasses ravenously and thrive on it. Why it has not been generally used is because the price has been prohibitive. The United Farmers': Co-op. has just completed a purchase of 50 tons at such a price as will place it in the hands of consumers.at just half the cost that has been quoted formerly. Special prices for hogsheads containing about one-third of a ton. Ask for quotations and you will surely buy.
