The Year and the Years.

That which gives the years unity and
Significance is the continuous revela-
tion Of Gods nature and designs for his
children which they disclose. Through
times ~ peace and times Of war,
through long stretches OF prosperity
and decades of disaster, through the
great epochs of progress and the sor-
rowful epochs of retrogressioD, the di-
vine purpose increasingly unfolds it.
self. For the time is past when any
partialistic view of Gods government
in the world is possible; as the time il
past when any partialistic view of his
love is creditable. We know today
that he loves ali races and generations
with divine impartiality of Affection
the Greek as deeply as the Jew, the
heather as truly as the Christian. And
we know also that all things come from
him. and that he is present in sorrow
as really as in Joy, in adversely as in
prosperity. The very sins of men
bring into clear light this inexorable
righteousness. and their punishments
are the sign of his love. Wherever men
think, feel and act they make history;
and history is the disclosure of Gods
purpose, because ii is the revelation
of mans nature and destiny. In sue
cess and failure, in baseness and nobil'
ity, in greatness and meanness, human
character and the issues that flow from
1t are disclosed with equal definiteness;
for he who breaks Gods law makes
the law as real and clear as ne who
obeys 1t.
The years are, therefore, the success
sive chapters in that great book of Rev
elation which all humanity is uneon-
sciously writing by thought. word or

which is the key of all other histories,
and without the light of which tey
are misleading and inadequate. Gods
purpose shining through the years

detail and forgets no life, however OBJ

A GREAT TIDE OF PROSPERITY.
Canadian Loan Companies Getting Money
on Mortgages That Had Been
Written or

Probably in the history of the COM
tinent there never was such a tide of
prosperity enjoyed by any country as
the Dominion Of Canada is being ia
yored with. That portion of Canada
known as Western Canada is attract
ing thousands of people, who are seek
ing homes on the arabic lands of that
new but rapidly developing country.
Possessed of exceptionally good rail-
road privileges, the best school sys-
tenn in the world, churches in every
small settlement, while in the towns
and cities all denominations are rep
resented and with markets in close
proximity to the grain fields, most Of
the requirements for comfortable ex-
istence are met. The development
that is now taking place in the min
ing districts gives an impulse to agri
culture, and good prices, with good
crops, bring about a state of affairs
that the crowded districts of more
populous centers are taking adyan-
tage of. The Associated Press dis
patches a few days since had the fol-
lowing telegram:
Toronto, Feb. Especial loan
companies that made advances on
Manitoba property years ago report
that the returns from the west during
the past three months have exceeded
expectations. One company has taken
from Manitoba over $4,000 interest,
and discharged mortgages, many of
which had been written off year ago.
Directors of leading loan companies
are taking greater interest In BUSH
ness of their institutions, and are in
curing into many properties on which
advances have been made.
The climate in the western provinces
of Manitoba, Alberta, Assiniboia and
Saskatchewan is excellent, there be-
ing no healthier anywhere. The Can
adian government is now offering spe-
cial inducements for the encourage
ment Of settlers, and they have their
agents at work throughout the United
States for the purpose of giving in
formation and distributing literature.
Among those going to Canada are
many ex-Canadians. who have failed
to make as good living as they ex-
pected in the United States.

Kansas Farmer: l am situated about
three miles from good alfalfa fields, and
some alfalfa is as near as two miles
from my place. Now, can keep bees
successfully that dintance away? Or
how far will bees go for honey and Sc
cure good crop? How many colonies
OF bees would 1000 acres of alfalfa sup
port, or how many can | safely keep
that distance from the clover?
Subscriber.
A. Fl. Duff answers: The matter OF
how far bees fly in search of honey has
been thoroughly investigated and
discussed by leading apiarists. Some
OF our best apiarists claim that bees
ny in search Of honey and gather it
from three to six miles away, from
choice. Others that are more reserved
say they prefer to gather and do gather
the bulk of the honey crop within
three miles of the apiary. AS for my
self, | like to be as close TO good bee
pasturage as | can get, and If possible
get right beside it, or right in it. But
1t frequently occurs that, as in your
best thing to do is proper. l believe
the locality and climate has something
to do with this matter / believe that
bees will not succeed as we'll in going
long distances in a prairie country
where winds are prevalent as they
would otherwise. 1t may be to some
extent imagination with me, as I have
not thoroughly experimental in that
line where | am now located, but it
seems to me that my bees, here in Cen
tral Kansas, do not go as far in search
or honey as they did in Ohio, where
formerly kept them. In this / shall
have to say Sin general" for I know
OF an exception. During last spring
my bees visited a peach orchard, when
the trees were in full bloom. eight
miles from the apiary. But of course
this was very fine, calm day, and
DO not hesitate to say that If 1t were
not for the prevailing winds Of this
country bees would go farther, and
make success of gathering honey
much farther away than in hilly coun
tries. | am firmly of the opinion that
Dees Will secure a much greater crop
OF honey If they can get it within a
mile OF two from the apiary; at the
same time they will get good paying
crop within three miles. Being sit
uated three miles from alfalfa fields,
the advantages would depend some
what upon the direction you are To-
Gated from the same If the frequent
winds come from the direction of the
sltalfa. so that the loaded bees would
come with the wind, 1t would be much
better than II 1t were the other way. 1t
takes pretty strong wind to check
Tue hight Of honey bees If not laden
with honey or pollen, but, on the other
hand, when they are heavily loaded
with honey or pollen they cannot make
much Roadway in the wind One
thousand acres OF alfalfa might sup
port two or three hundred colonies of
bees, but 1t would depend upon the.
manner In which the clover Is handled.
II harvested before or just at the time
1t comes into bloom, 1t would not be
safe to risk any great number of col
onies, unless there be other forage for
the bees to live on outside of alfalfa.

For some time the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern Railway company
has been experimenting with crude
oil for kindling fires In locomotives. in
place of using cord wood. and the re-
suits obtained have been SO satisfac-
tory that it will hereafter be used on
the whole line. During the month OF
November. 1897, at the company's
shops, which are located at Washing
ton, Ind, and Chillicothe, Ohio, 1,226
fires were started with crude oil at a
cost Of s1732. or 1.41 cents per fire.
To have started the same number Of
fires with wood the cost would have
been 100000, or 24.96 cents per fire.
This represents a saving Of $28s.6s,
and is very satisfactory.
