Is Now Located There-Farms Being

dents.
The following extracts from letter
written TO Mr.. BENZ. Davies, Canadian
Government Agent at st. Paul, Mimi,
give an excellent idea of what is said
OF Western Canada by those who have
gone there during the past two or three
years:
When we first arrived here and took
up our homes on the prairie near Dales-
borO, ASA. for a short time we had
fit of the blues but now ali hands
are settled to business, hale, hearty and
contented. enjoying the finest winter
we have ever seen. We have got very
comfortably situated. with considerable
preparation for a crop, and all hopeful.
l think this is very fine country, and
II the past seasons crop is not an ex-
ception, which they claim not, believe
this is going to be the wheat field of
the West. 1t is filing up fast. In this
township last spring there were TWEEN
ty-hye quarter sections of land vacant,
and to-day there is not one; l can stand
at my house and count ten houses
where there was not one last spring,
With six more to go up this spring.
This IS only a sample of what is going
on all round. We intend TO build
church next summer, right close to my
place, so we will be strictly in line. 1t
would have amused you to have been
here last spring. There were crowds OF
land seekers. and sometimes in the
spring the prairie is not very inviting,
ana OF course lots were discontinued.
There was one in the crowd who jump
Ell ON me for putting letter in the
paper. only for which he never would
nave come here, and he was very hos
ilie, but eventually he got place and
to-day claims he would not take thou
sand dollars and move out; so l am
glad he is satisfied
wei. my dear sir, as Arthur Finney
is about TO move out in March, with
his family, and also one of my sons,
anything you can do for them to assist
them along and to make things smooth
as possible will be greatly appreciated
by me. | will close for this time, and
viii write from time to time to let you
know we are living. Drop us a few
lines TO let us know how things are
moving in st. Paul
Yours respectfully,

RaIing Clover Hay.

1t is claimed that clover hay may be
baled in the field. but the experiments
made are not sufficient to show the
benefits derived compared with storing
the morning, after it is free from dew
or rain, and when well wilted the hay
tedder is used, SO as to give it every
chance to cure. In the afternoon the
hay is baled and hauled to the barn.
If this method is practiced care must
be exercised in having the hay proper
ly cured and in just the proper condi-
ton for baling, as baled clover is more
liable to heat than timothy or other
kinds.

The Age of a Horse.
To tell the age of horse,

The six front teeth the tale will tell
And every doubt and fear dispel.
Two middle "nippers" you behold
Before the colt is two years old,
Before eight weeks two more will come,
Eight months the corners" cut the gum.
The outside grooves will disappear
From the middle two in just one year..
In two years form the second pair:
In three the corners" cut are bare.
At two the middle '.nppers' drop,
At three the second pair can't stop;
When four years old the third pair goes.
At five full new set he shows.
The deep black spot will pass from view,
At six from the middle two:
The second pair at seven years;
At eight the spot each corner" clears
From middle "nippers" upper jaw
At nine the black spots will withdraw;
The second pair at ten are white;
Eleven finds the corners light.
AS time goes on the horsemen know
TIE oval teeth three sided grow;
They longer get. project before,

To Secare Constant Egg Yield.
The hardest task in maintaining a
constant and continuous egg yield is
to keep the laying stock in prime CON
dition. This means such condition of
perfect health that the eggs will not
only be laid regularly, but that they
will be of uniform size, according to
the breed laying them. Under such
conditions we should have large eggs
from Minorcas, Leghorns. Plymouth
Rocks and Brahmas. When such breeds
lay small eggs. abnormally large eggs
with perhaps double yolks or soft
shelled eggs. the stock is out of condi-
ton and usually overfat. The eggs will
thus be laid irregularly, and many
times laying will stop entirely. Layers
should be kept active, and activity is
induced by short feeding. A hungry
hen is usually a good layer.

The nutritive power of oats, Herr
Kalff, a German agriculturist says,
may be considerably augmented by
sleeping the grain in water before Civ
ing it to horses. This is his plan: He
has three troughs, each of which holds
as much oats as will be required for
one, days feeding. The first day the
first trough is filed with oats and water
at temperature of degrees G. poured
over it, and the whole mass is well
stirred. The water is left in the trough
about six hours, after which it is
strained off through hole in the bot
tom of the trough. The next day the
operation is repeated in the second
trough, and again on the following day
the third trough. The oats thus steep
ed in hot water get up fermentation,
and at the expiration of forty-eight
hours are ready to be given to the
horses. and will then, according to
Herr Kalff, produce the maximum
nutritive effect.

siIage Crops.

The reports concerning sweet corn
for silage are quite conflicting, says
Hoard's Dairyman. Some say that it
has a tendency to make very sour
silage, and others claim that it is as
unobjectionable in this respect as any.
If we had the sweet corn growing. we
would not hesitate to put it in silage,
but we would not plant it especially
for this purpose; neither would we
plant Kaffir corn for silage when the
ordinary maize grows to perfection.
Kaffir corn is especially adapted for
semi-arid climates because of its
drought resisting capacity. We are
not aware that teosinte has ever been
tried in the silo, but alfalfa has been,
and successfully so, especially in Cali
fornia.
