made immortal by Lon9 fellow in his
poem of "Evangeline." Tie date of Mr..
Roberts latest story is 1855, and the
action centers about the great and ter
rible decree of Punishment which tore
the old Acadians from their homes in
the garden of Nova Scotia and scattered
them in exile over the North American
continent.
"A Sister to Eyangeline" is nat a sad
story, though the intensity OF many
situations threatens at times to make ii
so. The hero, Paul Grande, returns to
Grand Pre- from tie wars just as the
political storm is breaking, He has
been drawn back frrm fighting the
English and American troops on the
Ohio dreaming Of love that should not
be a pastime, but prayer; not an cpl
sode, but an eternity" He finds his be-
loved Yyonne engaged TO be married to
an Englishman named Anderson, a
sturdy individual, but not possessed OF
the graces which made the young
Frenchman favorite every where.
Paul declares TO Anderson, man to man,
his determination to win the girls love,
in spite of her engagement, and, al
though Yvonne remains faithful to her
vow, it soon becomes apparent that in
her heart she prefers gallant Paul to
the true-hearted but narrow-minded
Anderson.
The romance once fairly begun,
events crowd each other, and the read
er is made familiar with the causes
which led to the final eXpatriation of
the Acadians. The blame is not put
upon the British, whose rule was not
Objectionable to the better classes of
Acadie, but upon the pernicious
French agitators, lay and clerical, who,
with their Indian allies, not only an
noyed the British troops, but in cold
blood murdered English settlers and
French farmers who did not openly es-
pouse the cause of France.

Some Good Reasons Why Dairy
Farmers Should Keep No others

The chief difficulty in making dairy
farming successful is the great number
of cows that do not pay their keep and
whose products are always sold at
loss. If one-tenth of all the COWS
owned were fatted at once and sold for
beef it would remove from the market

are now keeping prices too low for

Cotton on the Lower Yaqui.

Last year MT F. B. Chisem of Guay- mas, imparted from Texas quantity of cotton seed to plant as an ex- pertinent upon his Rancho Cajeme, in the Yaqui river valley. Twenty five acres were planted with the seed. Recently the gentleman was in re- ceipt of letter from MT. K. T. Bost- wick, superintendent of the ranch, who wrote that the cottcn is simply perfection; but that he cannot at present secure the help necessary for picking. MT. Bostwick asserts that on the Yaqui lands cotton can be raised cheaper than corn and beans.
 It is crop which neither animals nor Indians will eat, the raiser is sub- jected to DO loss from those sources. The plants thrive excellently, grow vigorously and produce abundantly. None of the diseases to which the plant seems subject in the United States have manifested themselves on the Yaqui. The staple is long and Of finest quality. After picking he bolls from the plants, irrigating water is turned on, and in few weeks there is another big crop of bolls to be gathered. Nowb here else in the world is it possible to gather two crops of cotton from the same land; but upon the fertile soil of the lower Yaqui valley this is possible for a prolonged period of time, Mexico annually i'm ports six million dollars worth of raw cotton, and the importation is con- stanly increasing. The lower Yaqui region can supply all that consump- tion and more. Hundreds of thous- ands of acres of land are open to it's cultivation.
