tunities it offers, the ignorance that
heretofore existed regarding the coun-
try is rapidly diminishing.
The area of Canada, all told, is
3,456,3S2 square miles. The mind can
scarcely comprehend the vastness of
this area. The distance through Cam
ada from the Atlantic to the Pacific
is roundly 5000 miles. In Ontario and
Quebec, the older provinces of the Do
minion, there is not much farming land
available, but westward of Ontario, in
the old Hudson Bay territory, now
known as Western Canada, there are
hundreds of millions of acres of the
choicest land on the continent all
ready for the plowman. There
are the provinces of Manitoba, COM
prising $4,000 square miles; Assinaboia,
about. 10000 square miles; Keewatin,
2S2,O0O square miles; Saskatchewan,
100000 square miles; Alberta, Toe, 900
square miles; Athabaska, 1O4, 900 square
miles; Northwest territories, 100000
square miles. Now that the United
States has filed up, no similar block
of agricultural lands awaiting the set
tier is to be found anywhere else.
Lord Selkirk in 1912 prophesied that
these plains of Western Canada would
yet maintain a population of So0,0oo,-
900 souls. And why not? Last year
Manitoba alone had nearly 100000
acres under crop in wheat, oats, barley,
fax and other grains, and potatoes and
other roots. This is undoubtedly the
coming wheat field of the world. The

NOTES FOR SHEPHERDS.

Provide shelter from the sun. Never
compel sheep to stay in a pasture with
no shade. 80 f..
If you have any yearling lambs that
won't eat very readily with the older
sheep, take them from them and feed
thrashed oats.
At an auction of the Polk county
(Ore.) mohair association the entire
clip of G,oo0 Angora goats was sold at
1914 cents per pound.
Sheep on the land will at least pay in
terest and taxes. Never permit piece
of ground to lie idle because it is rough;
stock it with sheep.
In former years ticks were supposed
to be only parasites troubling sheep,
but with the introduction of coarser
wooded breeds, come minute lice.

A good acre of land should grow 80

nels of oats" What other country pro-
| duces such oats?
The yield of barley is enormous and
the quality is so superior that it is
sought after by brewers everywhere at
several cents per bushel more than that
grown in other countries. Peas, too,
yield a splendid crop. They are en-
tirely free from bugs and grubs, and
| being used for hog fattening they
give splendid results both in quality
| of meat and in the weight gained by
the animals. To the fact that the hogs
are fed on peas instead of corn experts
attribute the entire absence from the
country of hog cholera, so familiar in
some of the western states. 4. 1t must
not be, supposed that corn will not
grow in Western Canada. 1t does grow
there to height of ten to twelve feet,
and is used for ensilage and occa-
sionally for fodder. ~. ~. -t
With regard to the yield of cereals a
few figures may not be out of place.

Fighting the shinxle Tick.

The single tick is what we common
" call the cattle tick. 1t is a very easy
matter to destroy the cattle tick. The
short life history of the tick is as fol-
lows: An adult tick will drop on the
ground and deposit $500 eggs. These
eggs hatch, and the young crawl upon
the grasses and plants, ready to attach
to anything that comes along. It has
not the power of selecting it's host.
It attaches itself to the first thing that
comes along. and sheep, upon which
the tick cannot live, are frequently pas
tured with cattle to exterminate it. 1t
is called the single tick on account OF
the peculiar way in which they over
lap each other when on an animal.

office at Ottawa, Canada, Mr.. Smart
made the statement that there is now
very little homestead land in the Unit
ed States, and the man who seeks for
tune in that way must now look else
where. 1t fortunately happens that we
have right at our very door an oppor-
tunity for acquiring land or getting
into lucrative business of some kind
that is equal to any even offered in
this country. Some years ago the
people of the United States were ac-
customed to see Canada figure on the
maps as long narrow strip of land,
with scattered villages and towns
along tbs st. Lawrence and great
lakes. II Is hard, therefore, to realize
that rival nation, with a territory
vastly larger than the whole United
border and has set about making a
great future for itself, building fac
tories, leveling mountains, filing up
the valleys, bridging rivers, digging
new and charging old canals, con-
structing thousands of miles of rail-
ways to bind together it's territories
and carry the fruit of the earth to
distant market and make easy of ac-

Cause OF Hog Diseases.

Remember that constipation is the
advance cgent of three-fourths of all
hog ailments. 1t is the beginning OF
going wrong. It is the cause of most
of the troubles. If the hogs. are care
fully watched it can be regulated with
food alone. II not Epson salts are
a cheap remedy. Dry pastures and
dry food will often cause it, or toe
little water in hot weather. They
should have all the pure water that
they can drink during the summer sea-
son. Constipation lies across the track
of growth, development and health. See
that7it does not become an obstruction.

AN ALLEGED HORSE THIEF.
The Trial of Richard w. Kaber Be
fore Justice CIabaugh.


The trial of Richard w. Kaber, which
was begun yesterday in Criminal Court
No / before Justice Clabaugh, attracted
considerable attention. Kaber is a young
German, about twenty-five years old,
and is charged with having stolen a horse
and buggy belonging to August Steubener
on April 10 last. The accused is intelli-
gent and told plausible story as to the
way he came into possession of the prop
erty. The testimony of several witnesses
offered by the Government was damaging
against Kaber. 1t was shown that he Of
fered the horse and buggy for sale.
The evidence for the Government show
ed that on the day mentioned, the horse
and buggy was left standing in front of
Goldenberg's store on Seventh Street, and
when next seen was in the possession of
Kaber in Alexandria, Va, where he Of
fered the team for sale.
When Kaber took the witness stand in
his own behalf he stated that he was
given charge of the horse and buggy by a
man whom he met on Pennsylvania Ave-
nue. and was told to drive to Alexandria
and wait there till he came. In the mean
time. however, If he had an opportunity
to sell the outfit Kaber said he was author
lied to do SO by the strange man who
turned the horse and buggy over to him.
Assistant District Attorney Shillington,
who represents the Government, made his
opening statement TO the jury yesterday
afternoon. The attorneys for the defence,

| their side of the case this morning and the

A HEARING IN THE RAPP CASE.
An Error in the Declaration Causes
u Postponement.

The case OF Henry Rapp against the
Company, which has been matter of lit
igation before the Supreme Court OF the
District for nearly four years, was called
for trial for the third time yesterday, in
Circuit Court No 2, but was postponed un-
til next Monday
Rapp was newsboy, and in the fall of
1894, it is alleged, lost one of his legs
through the negligence Of the defendant
company. Through his attorneys Henry e.
Davis and c. c. Tucker, he brought suit
for SIS 900 damages.
The case has twice been tried by jury
in the Supreme Court of the District. and
each time the boy has been awarded dam
ages. On the first trial the damage was
assessed at $500, and on the second $1,000.
The postponement of the case yesterday
was surprise to all concerned, the con-
tinuance being based on a clerical error
detected in the original declaration by
Justice Hagner, who presided at the hear
ing That an error existed in the papers
connected with the case was all the more
a surprise to the attorneys because of the
fact that before the first trial the defence
filed a demurrer TO the pleadings. and a
whole day was spent in argument and scru-
limitation of the declaration. Even after
this. two trials have been gone through and
no errors were detected by either counsel
or justices.
The error lay in pointing out the direc-
tion in which the car by which Rapp was
injured was moving According to the
wording of the declaration the car was 60
ing east from Twenty y-ninth to Thirtieth
Street This is plainly an error, for If IL
was going eaLi from Twenty ninth it would
