A well-to-do farmer, who has by
no slow degrees learned the lesson Of
chow to make the farm pay" says:
1--WE never really prospered until we
learned to live out of the garden
and cellar instead of the grocery
store" Good food in abundance
and of great variety, grown on, the
farm, should be the first object of
every farmer.

reasons why l can positively rec
ommend these investments -
I. The Red River Valley is one
of the best farming regions in
the world, is we'll settled and
prosperous, and HAS NEVER
HAD A FAILURE OF CROPS.
2. Loans there have much LAR
GER MARGINS OF SECURITY
than similar loans east and
interest is paid more promptly.
8. An experience of eight years
in loaning in all parts of the
Valley has given me reliable
knowledge of lands, values
and all necessary details which
enables me to select the best
loans on My Own JUDGMENT
q. I either know personally the
security for each loan or have
it specially examined by men
for whose good judgment and
integrity l can fully vouch.

The New Lord Tennyson

The new Lord TennySon, named after
the poets beloved friend, Arthur Hal
lam. whose death inspired the beautiful
poem, In Memoriam," is not unlike his
father in personal appearance, but does
not at all resemble him in mental power
or literary tastes. Of late years the
Hon. Hallam Tennyson hardly ever left
his fathers side. Lord Tennyson could
not bear him out of his sight, especially
since he lost his second son, Lionel, in so
sad and sudden manner when the latter
was crossing the Red sea on his way
home from India.
In all his tastes Hallam Iord) Tenny-
son is thorough English gentleman Of
the old fashioned conservative sort. De-

passages of In Memoriam" has no
liking for any other poetry. He has a

rangements with Mr.. Augustin DAILY

clare that worse choice might easily
