holding q diploma from a Normal train

Board has now decided, however, that
this shall not be construed in future to
bind them to the employment Of Normal

An Evidence of ProsperItv.

1t is generally conceded by econo-
mists, who study the commercial sit
uation of the country, that the great
arteries Of railway travel are a sure
indication Of its condition. A depres-
sion in commercial lines means aban-
doned business trips and the cancella-
ton of pleasure travel, while a healthy
condition of affairs means business
trips and an increase of passengers on
pleasure bent.
A good evidence that a business re-
vival has gone broadcast over this
country is the Lake Shore Limited"
the star train of the Vanderbilt sys-
TEN, between New York and Chicago,
which is daily comfortably filled. With
a view to taking the best possible care
of its patrons, the New York Central
has arranged to increase the equip
ment of this train by placing an addi-
tional standard sleeper on the trains
leaving New York and Chicago Tues
days, Thursdays and Saturdays. To
the regular traveller the appointments
and comforts of this train are well
known, but If you have made a
trip on it, you owe it to yourself to
see and enjoy the advance made in
comfort and luxury in modern railway
travel. Remember the fare is no high
er on this train, except between New
York and Chicago, while the accommo-
dations and service place this particu-
lar train conspicuouslyt at the head Of
the list, when compared with other
lines.-Albany Journal.

A LETTER.
A Western Canadian Settler Writes to
an Illinois Friend.


In writing to Mr.. T. Hawkyard, of
Rockford, ILL.,, Mr.. G. Simpkins. OF
Leduc, Alberta, Western Canada (and
TO which points especially low rates are
being quoted over all lines Of rail-
way, says:
Dear Sir:-Rec'd your letter the 14th
inst. We have had nc snow till after
Christmas and the cattle have been
able to live out, and are all in good
condition. 1t is showing now. That
is what We want; have about 6 inches
now. The old settlers say when we
nave lots of snow 1t means a good crop
the coming season. 1t never drifts
mere. The weather Is calm and bright.
We do not have to dress any heavier
than in Illinois, and the horses never
shiver with the cold when we take
tnem from the warm stables, as they
DO In Illinois. 1t has not frozen in the
stable this winter. The most of the
STOCK runs out. but there is no need
OF 1t, for timber is plentiful and there
is no expense to build good stables and
houses. We have good log houses and
lhey are very warm. Two men can
put up a house 16x24 in two days.
mere are good rails for fences. We
live ten miles from the coal district,
the price being from SO cents up to
SZ.OO. The land is q very rich, loamy
SOIL, from 6 inches to several feet in
depth; the hills have the deepest. 1t
Is a rolling country, and excellent for
stock of all kinds. Sheep do well, and
there are plenty Of small lakes where
the cattle can get good water. The

the middle of April, and run at large;
ulhess in charge of a herdsman, we
have to fence against them. Wheat
goes from 35 to 60 bushels per acre,
oats 80 to 80, very often over a hun
dred. AS to potatoes, a neighbor
planted z bushels and dug 226 bushels
m no bugs. Roots of all kinds do
well. There are lots of strawberries
and lots OF red raSpberrieS, black and
red currants, and gooseberries, where
the fire has not burnt them. Cattle
are scarce. l have been trying to buy
some for s months and have got only
three two-year-old, and paid $50 each.
hogs are scarce, but can be got. They
sell Tor 6 cents dressed, and cost more
for stockers. Wheat so cents per bu.,
oats 70 cents, eggs so cents a dozen,
butter Is and 20 cents, poultry was 10
and IL cents dressed. Sheep are
scarce. If you come, bring your farm
tools, but bring no seeders; we use
drills. Bring COWS, but do not bring
horses unless you are an experienced
hand in shipping them, for so many of
them are hurt in shipping. There will
be plenty of work for a binder. Two
good horses will break, but three light
er are better. The horses you get here
can work without grain, but are better
with it. 1t will be hard to tell what
prices horses will be, for the immigra-
ton will be very large the coming
spring. They could be had last spring
at one time. They claim the best time
to break is June, but my experience
is to break in the spring and work it.
You can break till the middle of July.
