which is proving very advanta-
geous to the settlers of North
Alberta, Canada, and is truly boon to
the farmers, is the establishment of
creameries by the Government at regu-
lar distances apart. The Government
furnishes the entire plant, puts it in
and operates it without direct cost to
the farmer. From the sale of the but
ter the Government retains cents per
pound, the balance going to the farmer.
This is continued for three years, when
the government turns over the plant
and business to the farmers, Civ
ing them clear title Of it.
Thus these creameries are put in
at a minimum cost to the farmer
and paid for in a way that he least
feels it. When we were there butter
was selling at q and % cents per
pound. Cheese factories were being es-
tablished, too, along the railroad and
much of the freight loaded on the cars
on our return trip consisted of butter
and cheese, as it was in the best sea-
son for milk. The produce found q
ready market In the mining and lum-
bering towns and districts beyond the
Rockies, through the British Columbia
country, where it was, we were told,
difficult to supply the demand"
The Klondike is another field now
open to the Western Canadian farmer
for all produce of the farm, and tho
officials in the Department of the In
terror, Ottawa, Canada, are kept busy
sending out literature describing this
great agricultural country. The agents
Of the Government throughout the
United States are also supplied with
literature. which they distribute free.

Decision I'm, the Archbfshop. Ireland
Land Caae.


Washington: Feb. &-Cbmmissione
Herman, of the general land office, has
decided the case of Archbishop John
Ireland, involving the right to abou.
10000 acres of land in the st. Cloud
and Marshall! land districts. Minneso-
ia. With view to cOloniZing and
other purposes the archbishop entered
into two contracts with the st. Paul,
Minneapolis Il Manitoba Railway COM
pany. within! whose limits the land
lay, for'its disposition. These contracts
were dated July IL, 1850, and March
30, 1852. Subsequently it was de-
termined than the land was not prop
erly conycyable to the road, and the
question arOst whether the archbishop,
under the agreement with the COM
pany.. could become the purchaser Of
the lands, on which many persons had
settled. The commissioner decides
that under the agreement of 1880, in
which about 5000 acres are involved,
the archbishop cannot become the pur-
chaser: as he was simply the agent of
the company i'm disposing of the lands
for Which he received commission.
The settlers now On these lands can ac
1uire patent under tine land laws at
the price of Sf.21 per acre, or under
@ei e'.iil eohtuitWllS il;S Jake out nome
stead rights. Under the agreement of
1883 the commissioner decides the
archbishop has the right to purchase
the lands. These he will have to pay
for at the rate of $3.50 per acre. Many
persons have settled also on these
lands under arrangements with the
archbishop. In the first case, there
fore, the decision is against the arch
bishop. and in the second for him, nj,
though in both cases the settlers will
be protected. The archbishop has the
right of appeal from the decision to
the secretary of the intertor.

One of His Enterprises With nm
Empty Treasury.
Philadelphia, Feb. G.-The Enquirer
says that the Interstate Irrigation
Canal and Land company. one of the
enterprises of Francis G. Cradle,
whose borrowings caused the resigna-
ton of the cashier of the Chemical Ma
tional Bank of New York, has an
nounced to it's creditors that it has not
n dollar in it's treasury with which to
pay notes. 1t follows with state
ment from the treasurer of the COM
pany, George B. Luper, who is also
second vice president of the Security
Trust and Life Insurance company Of
this city. Mr. Luper said he could not
tell what would be done; that although
treasurer, he was not a director; that
he had been elected treasurer last July;
that he had never been present at a
meeting Of the company; that he did
not know whether an extension of time
would be granted or not, and that he
could not tell whether there would be
immediate application for the appoint
mena of receiver or not.
The capital stock of the corporation
he knew was $1,0O0,OOO, but only
about 100000 of stock had been is
sued. This had been issued mainly to
Cradle for 5000 acres of land, includ-
ing 1920 town lots, the property lying
in and around Edgemont, a town Of
LOO people, whose name also appears
in the title of another of CRADLES ven
lures, the Edgemont Il Union Hill
Smelling company. The Interstate
company is n New Jersey corporation.
The Enquirer article gives the names
Of many creditors who are interested
in amounts ranging from $4,000 to
$4,000. The work that has been
done on the canals must have cost a
great part of the 100000 issued in
stock to raise money for the enter
prise. Mr.. Cradle was paid to man.
