The MiddIeman a Necessity.

The middleman is a necessity. If a
farmer had thousand bushels of
wheat to sell he could never retail It.
He is compelled to sell in bulk or lose
more time than the wheat Is worth
The middlemen are the distributors,
and they are also consumers. The
farmer can get rid Of the middlemen to
n certain extent by seeking markets
near home for articles that are readily
salable, such as butter and eggs. but IL
he buys from his neighbor any of the
articles he sells them he, too, becomes
a middleman, as he handles the product
Of his neighbor between the producer
and consumer.

The NEW WORLD.

tile lands of Western Canada, which
were made mt the several State and
county fairs In some Of the Western
States this fall, have awakened consid-
cradle interest In the lands which the
Canadian Government has opened for
settlement, and which are given free
to settlers. The agents of the Govern
ment, who are to be found In these
States, are flooded with inquiries re-
garding the conditions on which these
lands may be secured Large numbers
have located on these lands during the
past year, and send back to their
friends most encouraging reports. They
say they have entered on an era Of
prosperity, and are well pleased with
both the agricultural possibilities and
the climate. The provinces OF Mani
toba, Assinaboia and Alberta are spe-
cially adapted to diversified farming.
In some parts the country is specially
adapted to stock raising, and 1t is be-
ing profitably pursued. In these parts
snow seldom remains a week at time,
the warm breezes from the ocean af-
fecting the climate thus favorably.
When the desirability of these lands is
fully known there will be rush such
as has scarcely ever before been
known. Information as to low railway
rates, illustrated pamphlets, etc., will
be forwarded with pleasure by the De-
partment of the Interior, Ottawa, Can
ada, If you are not In possession of the
name Of an agent Of the Government.

Steam Engines for Farm Use.

Steam Engines for Farm Use.
Because farmers always have horse
power on the farm 1t does not follow
that 1t must be used for every purpose
where additional power Is required.
There are many kinds of jobs where a
small engine, which any farmer can
easily learn to run, Will give better sat
isfaction and be far less expensive than
keeping horse. With the proper con-
nections so as to furnish the power
such an engine will do the churning or
run the milk separator. 1t will do the
washing and turn the grindstone in
summer, job that has Disguised more
boys with farming than any other
One of the best uses Of the engine Is to
make 1t turn lathe, where the young
people can cut out various kinds Of
wooden utensils and learn skill in
handicraft that will be useful to them
all their lives.

Old Ideas.

There are hundreds Of farmers who
are opposed to 'book farming" or what
they term fancy farming" who be-
lieve In giving sick COW a piece Of
salt beef to bring back her cud.'
When COW Is sick she refuses to eat;
it is then decided that she has "lost her
cud," and she is treated for its restora-
ton, when in fact the chewing of the
cud by COW is simply the forcing Of
the food into the mouth from large
storage stomach to be chewed and then
swallowed, the food passing into a
smaller stomach for digestion. Hun
dreds Of cows, however, are treated for

as remedy for ''hollow horn.'
