We are building a beautiful castle now.

can't ever finish it. They are so poor,
you know, papa, that thew can't stay

that I would just ask you to adopt him

GOOD CROPS I'm CANADA.
Farmers Leave Good Lands In MInneso.
Ia for Western Canada.


Delegates representing a number OF
neighboring farmers in Clay county,
Minnesota, who visited the Edmonton
district OF Western Canada last sum
mer are evidently very we'll satisfied
with the result of their trip. They
think so we'll of the country that in
addition to the privilege Of obtaining
a free homestead of 160 acres of land
they have also purchased land. In a
recent interview on the subject Messrs.
G. z. and A. Hughes of GAINESVILLE
Clay Co.. say:
I'VE are well pleased with Western
Canada. 1t is far ahead of what we
expected. We find the climate to bS
warmer than we expected. AS for the
crops We have never seen anything
that can compete with them. We have
lived in Minnesota and have farmed
some of what they count the best lands
in the Red River Valley for ten years
and have done very we'll in that part
OF the country, and have farms there
at present free of all circumference,
but believe that this country (Western
Canada) Is so much better that we
have bought from the Canadian Pa
cific Railway Company one section of
land northeast of Edmonton in the
Beaver Hill district. We have trav-
eled through that part of the country
and have seen the grain in the gran
aries and the amount of land that 1t
was taken off and find that they have
grown as much as fifty bushels and
over to the acre, and they say that this
has not been a good year, and very
little II any grain had been touched
by the frost. Hay seems to be plenti-
full, and IL you wish to put up log
buildings you can get the logs within
a few miles. Coal can be had at the
mines for rs cents per ton, or you can
dig it yourself. Nearly all kinds OF
garden truck can be grown in abund-
ance. We find everything that can be
grown in good demand. The farmers
tell us that they can get four and
half live weight per hundred for hogs,
and for three year old steers from fifty
to sixty dollars per head, providing
they are good. We will move into that
part of the country next summer. All
the people in that part of the country
seem satisfied, and we do not see any
reason why they should not be So"
The Messrs. Hughes also stated that
they would be very glad to afford any
one desiring particulars about the
country they had visited the fullest
information, on receiving enquiries at
GAINESVILLE, Clay Co., before the 1st
of June next. when 1t Is understood
they propose to return to the Edmon-
ton district.

SCIENTIFIC FARMING.
The Introduction of Modern Machinery
Has Made 1t Easy and Profitable.

The Introduction of Modern Machinery
Has Made 1t Easy and Profitable.
Some farmers are still living in this
country who deprecate anything In
the nature of an innovation in their
method of cultivating the soil, but
fortunately for the future Of agri-
culture, they are rapidly growing less.
A few years ago the spade was consid-
cred the proper thing with which to
turn the soil, but for present day re-
quirements it is altogether too slow
q method, and it has been superseded
by the pillow. The old style plow, how
ever, was not much better than the
spade, and farmers demand an article
that is light, easy to work and perfect
in It's requirements. Without doubt
the best plow on the market to-day is
that manufactured by the Castree &
Shaw Co., of Owosso, Mich, and known
as the "Owosso No. l."
This pillow is made entirely OF steel,
and is the lightest, easiest running,
most durable and simple pillow ever
built. The peculiar construction OF
their Golfer, Moldboard and Share
produces the lightest draft plow ever
made-all the working points are
steel, it runs true even in the stoniest
ground, and buries completely all
weeds, stubble and fertilizing crops,
no matter how high or heavy, and
runs so easily that a boy of ten years
OF age can handle 1t. 1t Is beyond
doubt the best all around plow on the
market to-day. Messrs. Castree &
Shaw Co. also manufacture the
Star Steel Land Roller, which is as far
in advance of the old wooden roller as
their plow is to the spade. The drum
is made of the best tank steel, and
there is no friction whatever. All the
parts are interchangeable, and extras
can be furnished on short notice. We
strongly advise any of our readers who
contemplate purchasing a plow or land
roller to write the Castree &c Shaw
Co., 73 Bond St., Owosso, Mich, for
catalogue and full particulars before
placing their order.

Dwel'ers In the Arctic Are Great

The jewellers in the Soudan or the
Sahara, Of course, you would suggest.
But you would be quite wrong. 1t is
not the tribes who dwell in the fiery
deserts of the tropics who drink most
water in a day. Far from it. They
are, as a rule, most temperate in all
things. Unlikely as it may seem, it
is just the last people you would ina
gine-the jewellers in the frozen north,
the Esquimaux-says the Philadelphia
Record. They seem to have a thirst
which is quite unquenchable, and for
that purpose they are constantly melt
ing snow and ice over the lamp which,
fed by blubber, burns day and night
in every hut. Small wonder that the
soapstone out Of which these lamps are
made is to the still uncivilized Esuui-
maux the most valuable Of possessions.
and that they will make long journeys
to secure pieces large enough to carve
lamps out Of The lamp itself is shall
low, in the form Of a small segment Of
a circle, and the wick of dry moss,
rubbed between the hands with a lit
tie fat. 1t supplies itself with oil by
melting a long thin slip of blubber

substitutes for the soapstone lamps are

Is a. much as can do to manage you,
without having another youngster on
my hands? However. we will go and
see them now and then decide what Is
to be done"
Wise little Maysie said no more.
She felt sure that when her papa saw
Teddie's soft, fair curls and Teddies
pretty mamma he would succumb at
once.
When they reached the tiny cottage
he was little surprised, and thinking
that Teddie's mother was perhaps a
servant there, was about to go to the
side door. But Maysie declared that
they lived here, and knocked calmly at
the front door. 1t was opened by Ted
die himself, at sight of whom-for the
little boy bowed with the prettiest
manner in the world-Mr. Garland was
still more astonished.
This is Teddie, papa" said May
sic. And this is Teddie's mamma"
upon which the little people withdrew
to the front doorstep to discuss mat
ters of Importance, including the rap
idly progressing castle and the latest
news from the bedside of a sick kit
ten. Mayse had decided that they
could safely leave their parents
to get acquainted.
A fair-haired little woman, gowned
In black, rose to meet Mr.. Garland, and
for a moment both gazed at each 9TH
er In mute wonder. Then he took
step forward.
Kathleen he cried.
She held out her hand then and
smiled sadly. Eyes, 1t is l. Have
changed so much? You have not
changed at all. Jack. You look just the
same"
You have changed. But to find you
here! You have been i'll! Kathleen,
what is this l hear about your trou-
bles?"
The childish voice seemed to ring In
his ears again, "Teddie's mamma cries
about it," and suddenly he bent over
her and took her hand in his strong
tender grasp.
This brave little woman had battled
with the world in silence, but now at
the first touch OF sympathy she gave
way; a sob rose in her throat, two
tears rolled down her pale cheeks, and
in a moment her head was on his
arm.
Kathleen, my Kathleen" he whis-
pered passionately. LET us forget our
foolish quarrel. know you loved me
in the old days, and l have loved you
always. Let us begin over again. We
are older and wiser; we will not let
our youthful folly stand between us.
You will not throw away your happi-
ness and mine?"
The children returned some time lat
er. Mr.. Garland lifted the blue-eyed
boy in his arms, and led Maysie to the
sofa.
There, dear" he said, kiss your
mamma. 1t is all settled. have
adopted both of them"
"Oh. knew you would" said mat
ter-of-fact Maysie. And now, Ted
die. we'll go and finish the CASTLE"

BROKE THE SUNDAY LAW.
Valuable Fishing Nets Confscated
Near the Sacramento River.

Deputy Game and Fish Commissioners
Davis and Cross have confscated nearly
$500 worth of salmon nets, which have
been turned over to the courts at Valle-
jo. The seizures We're made because of
the violation of the law which prohibits
the taking of salmon between sundown
on Saturday evening and sundOwn on
Sunday evening. The deputies suspected
that nets were in several OF the slOughS
up the river and on Saturday night they
went in the State launch Quintat into
MOntezuma Slough. where they waited
until q proper time to make run through
those waters. After proceeding a short
distance they found a new net worth
about $3.50, of about 2400 feet in length.
This was taken on board.
run was then made TO what is known
as the cutoff" where two more nets
one new. OF about 400 fathoms in length,
and the other Of about 800 fathoms. Con-
sidering the value of the property and
the fact that the fall run Of salmon is
now on il is possible that the unknown
owners of the new nets may make appli
cation for their fishing rigs and take the
chances of being arrested If they do
they will surely fall into the clutches of
the law, for warrants have been sworn
out for them. If they can secure the
minimum fine of $500 they will be getting
off lucky. but the chances are against
this. for the offense is likely to be tried
in the Superior Court, where less mercy
would be shown to the violators of the
law
