UNExPLORED CANADA.
Five Regions which Are Unkn own
to Map Makers.

! to Map Makers. ssgs
The Canadian government hts sens
IDLY determined upon scientific expe.
dition to Hudson bay early next year
to study the resources Of those waters
and the surrounding country. The
powers at Ottawa owe it to the geo
graphers Of the United States to aid
much more than they have done in the
exploration OF Canada, the accepted
map OF Which is now SO indefinite.
Perhaps Phila delp hians have accom-
plished more in the opening up Of
Canada's great unexplored areas than
all the Canadians OF this generation
AS AS ]. for the Hudson bay environs, there
are many engineering and commercial
reasons why those particular regions
should be Systematically explored.
There are four grand areas Of unknown
land lying around that far northern
body Of water. y
There is, first OF all, upon the north
west the area surrounded by Blacks
river, Great Slave lake, Athabasca
lake, Hatchet and Reindeer lakes,
Churchill river and the west coast Of
Hudson bay, a region Of 17S,OOO
square miles, much larger than Great
Britain and Ireland, and somewhat
larger than Sweden. It has not been
explored since Hearne's three journeys
in 1892. His maps are not even
roughly approximate, according to his,
own account. The second area lies be-
tween the Severn and Attawapishkat
rivers and the coast Of Hudson bay.
It comprises $4,000 square miles, a
larger area than that Of Nova Scotia.
The third is the area to the south and
east Of James bay, embracing $4,000
square miles, where the Bell expedi-
ton has just finished a superficial sur
vey. This region may be compared in
size to Portugal. It is the nearest Of
these unexplored regions to large cen
ters Of population. The fourth area
comprises almost the entire interior
Of the Labrador peninsula, or north
east territory, and contains 289OOO
square miles, or more than twice the
area Of Great Britain and Ireland,
with Newfoundland thrown in: Prof.
Hind, Mr.. A. P. Low and Mr. R. r.
Holme have touched upon but never
entered the boundaries of this inn
mense unknown tract. And to these
four Hudson bay areas might also be
added the lower lying area between
Trout lake, Lac Seul and the Albany
river, which is small in comparison
with the Others. yet nevertheless
equals in size the whole of Scotland

Failures With Incubators.

Too much curiosity and anxiety is
the cause of many failures that occur
with incubators. The most difficult
part Of the operation is to abstain
from interference with the egg drawer.
just at the time of the coming. out of
the shell changes of temperature in
the incubator are fatal to the young
chicks 1t is we'll known that when
hen is ON the nest engaged in hatch
ing nothing will induce her to expose
the egg after she is aware that the
chicks are coming out. She will leave
the eggs at other times, to get food
! and water, but not when the chicks
are Matching. The same rule applies
to the incubators. AS soon as the eggs
begin to hatch close the drawer and
keep it closed until as many of the
chicks are out as can be expected and
there will be fewer of them die in the
shell. Inquisitive neighbors, who wish
to be gratiied, should be told that they
cannot be accommodated. Keep the
drawer shut and have patience The
result will be more satisfactory than
would be the case if the chicks were
exposed to changes occasionally.

There is more Catarrh in this section
OF the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by constant
ly falling to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven Catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh

Notes.

+ Cultivation of young trees should
not be continued at this time of the
year; let the growth of trees and
. vines become hardy and woody and
more able to Withstand the vicissi-
tudes Of winter. - -
The objection to seeding down. an
orchard to grass is that it takes from
the soil the moisture needed by the
trees, and when allowed to grow close
to the trees seems to choke them,
Glover does not have this effect, nor
does it usually make a rank growth
under the trees. It rather tends to re-
tain moisture by it's shade. ,5.zS s
Farmers are disposed to defer until
spring much Of the work that could
be done before that season arrives. On
the opening of warmer weather all the
work must be hurried and a dozen
jobs seem to be ready for the farmer
/ to perform at the same time, which
delays planting to a later period than
should be the case. III. +, s b
+ The best root is more easily injured
by frost than any other. It should al
ways be harvested before freezing
weather. Nearly all varieties OF beets
grow well out of the ground, and il
they are harvested before freezing
weather their leaves will make a good
deal Of valuable fodder, that must
however be used quickly, as when
put in piles it, is SO full sof sap that it
quickly rots.ra
Drainage IS beneficial to most land
to draw OF water from. the lower soil
and admit tt1hf6i All; which increases the
fertility. Such soil is always In better
condition, early or late, for blowing
and for plant growth. "a good long tile
running toward the barn can be tapped
for tank for stock water, often, and
give a clear, cool running stream all
summer, even hen the fields are dry
and dusty. 81:

The characteristics of Good si1age.

The characteristics of Good Silage.
Good corn silage should be bright
green, only a little darker than when
put into the silo and free from mold.
The kernels of corn should be nearly
natural in color and the silage should
have mild acid taste and a we'll
marked and pleasant smell Any mold
ing Of the silage, any strong, offensive
odor, and any dark or black color arc
indications of losses Of dry matter
greater than 8 to IL per cent. A silo
which gives this kind Of silage is de-
fective in some important particular.
Hhere will be scattered through the
silage small spots the size Of the land,
OF perhaps the size of the head, where
there is little mold, but these should
be very few. A general molding or
blackening of the silage in contact
with the walls is proof Of faulty walls
or bad filing. The silage against the
walls should be bright and free from
mold, and where it is not an unneces-
sary loss is being sustained. This is
an important matter for the feeder to
understand, because cattle will eat
sllage readily where there has been as
high as SO per cent loss, so that the
fact that cattle eat the silage all up is
no criterian that large losses are not
being sustained. "a feeder can no bet
ter afford a loss Of 20 per cent Of his
silage than he can afford a. loss Of 1
per cent of fat In his mil IF H.

Farm Rats.

The loss Of grain on a farm from
rats is quite an item, as they destroy
a portion other than that consumed.
The corn crib should be made rat
proof, and all harboring places made
disagreeable to them. They can be
prevented to certain extent by traps,
poison and other devices, but the best
method, if possible, is to provide no
harboring places for them.

Pumpkins 8.

Most all kinds of live stock do well
on pumpkins mixed with their daily
ration, and relish them as we'll. I'VE
are inclined to think that the feeding
value of pumpkins is generally under
estimated. When fed to COWS they
stimulate large milk flow, and with
light grain ration the quality of but
ter is very fine. Pork is always better
when some. pumpkins are fed along
with the grain. The pumpkin crop is
very cheap one when grown with
corn, and several tons of this food
could be produced annually in corn
fields that grow nothing but corn per
farmer.

As to the County Seat Contest.

Ever since the election returns
were in, and it was shown that
Toledo had been selected by a
majority of over 100 as the perma-
nent county-seat of Lincoln county,
there has been more or less NUT
terings of discomfort. These NUT
terings have taken the form, princi-
pally, of threats of contesting the
election and trying to throw out
the Indian votes.
The LEADER has refrained from
speaking or stirring this matter up,
hoping that with the lapse of
little time that the soreness of de-
feat would pass away and that the
county could unite in an harmonious
manner, and that the differences
and feeling that always arise in a
contest of that nature would dis
appear. But with the last issues
of those papers of our county which
turned to support West Yaquina at
the last moment we are assured
that contest will be brought, that
all the strife and feeling will be
rekipdled and multiplied, and from
other more reliable sources comes
the rumor that money is being
raised to start contest, therefore
it might not be out of place to
plainly state few facts from a
Toledo standpoint, and give a fair
warning of what may be expected
should the unwise counsel of nom
residents prevail and the result of
the recent election be taken into
the courts.
In the first place Toledo has not
been asleep to her interests in this
matter, and to that end has sretainei
the services of one of the ablest at
torneys i'll the state of Oregon.
I'm the time of peace, prepare for
war;" is wise maxim and Toledo,
in this instance has sought to be
benefited by it. To this end also
Toledo's representatives have been
carefully looking up the names and
eligibility Of the persons who voted
i'll the various precincts, and the
result has not been a disappoint-
ment to Toledo's side. The use of
money can now be established. and
the promise Of reward can be
shown.
Let it be understood that we de-
plore contest. We would ask
those of the citizens of the county
who are urging it to reflect we'll
before decisive action is taken. 1t
will stir up strife, intensity dis
sension and only cause the whole
county trouble. But while deplor-
ing contest, Toledo is not afraid
of the result of one. We do not
hesitate to predict that if contest
is started that the county-seat will
remain at Toledo; but some persons
who voted in Lincoln county OH
June I, 1896, will come very near
to the doors of the Oregon peni-
tentiary.
