western Canada, have perhaps been the
most carefully watched portions of the
North American continent during the
past year. These three provinces have
teen aptly termed the granaries and
pastures of Canada. Manitoba has
nearly $4,000. 600 acres of the richest
soil, peculiarly adapted to the growth
of wheat and other cereals. Assiniboia
has something over $4,000, 900 acres of
fat lands specially suitable to mixed
farming, and Alberta has A, OOO, 900 acres
of land as fertile as can be found, vast
expanses of natural pasturage, and
broad districts rich in coal, minerals and
timber. In these three provinces there
is an abundant water supply, furnished
by multitude of lakes, rivers. creeks
and springs, and no portion of the globe
can claim a more healthful climate, nor
one better adapted to the growth Of the
finest grades of wheat. or to profitable
agriculture in all its branches. The
the wonderful advantages and product
iveness of the country; wheat and other
cereals. roots. vegetables, hay, etc, all
yielded enormous crops. and there is
more genuine prosperity and content
ment to-day among the settlers of North
western Canada, than has been re-
corded in the history of any newly
opened agricultural region.
Among all these millions of acres of
fertile lands, free as air to ali who seek
for new homes upon them, settlers from
every nation of Europe, from the older
parts of Canada and from many parts of
the United States are rapidly securing
farms and laying the foundation for a
future competency.

Experience of an ANectiOnate Father in n
Savings Bank.
A gentleman went into a savings
bank in this city to deposit a small
amount of money for each of his little
daughters and the red tape connected
with it There was not much of it, how
ever is interesting to describe. He
had to sign his name in trust for each of
the children, to give his age and birth
place, the age and birthplace of the
children and his wife's name. He was
also asked to give the name of his eld-
est son, to which he replied that he had
none.
''In case any thing happens to you
your children can not draw this money
until they become twenty-one years of
age" he was informed by one of the
clerks.
"Well, can't my executor draw it?"
he asked.
mo; a guardian must be appointed
for the purpose"
A handbook was then handed to him
for each of the children, showing that
he had deposited the amounts in trust
He saw that only the initials OF his first
and second name appeared. He asked
that his first name be written out in
full. because another member Of his
family has name which begins with
the same initial.
1--WE only write the letter." said the
clerk, 80 that if your book should be
lost the finder will not know whether
you are a man or a wor'an, and we
wouldn't pay out the money unless he
signed your first name IN full"
''What is the amount of stock in this
bank?" the depositor asked.
There is no stock. The depositors
get all the profit At the end of SIX
months the amount of interest allowed
is determined upon"
"Who appoints the directors of the
bank?'
There is board which was put in
years ago If one Of the board dies or
resigns the remaining directors select
new one"

dation?"

honor of it. The president, however,
