In St Nicholas F. Fitz Roy Dixon
tells Of a baby elephant that was CAP
tured by friends of his in Ceylon, after
the death of its mother. Mr.. Dixon saws:
When Sidney was first brought over,
virtually in order that she might be
fed, the question naturally arose a 20
how she would take her n~ourishment.
OF course the proper way for an adult
elephant to take in water is BY means
OF the trunk, which is furnished with
two tubes running its whole length.
but when q bowl Of milk was placcd
before the baby elephant she did mo-
know what 20 do with il. She aippel

nourishment she had been accustomed

one suggested pouring it down her
threat from a hottie. and this was nc.
cordingiy tried. and after one or two in.
e1ecfual attempts she understood.
She was half starved when this was
done. for she had had uothing to eat
SINCE the death Of her mother, and her
delight at being fed was mot amusing.
The only trouble was that il was ain,

that tie change OF diet would disagree

IN selecting seed wheat, the tr-t

O u hard wheat for two reasons first,

be obtained from any locality in the
Northwest that would be suitable &c
our conditions. We have written
to several reputable growers of the

It ON them can be obtained a
sufficient amount so as to enable
