A TALK ABOUT MULES.

Hot weather affects the mule less
than the horse. =
The usefulness Of mule continues
longer than that of horse.
A good, honest business mule is
worth, and will command, q good
price any day in the week.
A mule is easier ''broke" or trained
to work than horse, and is more re.
liable after initiated.
You hardly ever see sick mule; he
seems practically immune from tho
diseases which attack horses.
We would rather pillow corn with q
team of mules than with horses: thew
break down less corn and turn
around quicker.
A mule can endure more hardship
than a horse, will pull more in pro-
portion to his size, and will s.stay
with it, longer.
An energetic mule will make trip
quicker than horse, though he may
not 60 so fast-the secret of his
speed is his uniform gait, steady and
persistent.
If q team of mules runs away they
look out for themselves, and though
they may make some close turns and
go through q needles eye, so to
speak, they usually come out un-
harmed.
The mule is not handsome, doesn't
make q good roadster, isn't stylish,
doesn't do himself proud if hitched
to a fancy, yellow road wagon or
cart, but what he lacks in appear
ance he makes up in actual useful
ness on the farm.-Midland Farmer.

AGREE TO PRESERVE GAME
European Nation. Interested in Arr.
ca Have q Compact to Protect
Animals

An act of great Importance to al
those who are interested in preserving
from determination the wild animals
of the world was recently taken b,
representatives Of the various Euro
pean powers that control territory in
Africa, by which the larger portion Of
that continent becomes, to all intents
and purposes, a vast game preserve
ALL game, both great and small, 10 in
danger of disappearing before the per.
sistence of sportsmen and Of the gath.
erers of hides and ivory.
Africa is still rich in animals. birds
and fishes, and by placing certain re.
strictions upon their destruction many
species that would otherwise be ex.
terminated may be fostered and per.
petuated. In London a convention was
signed by the diplomatic representa-.
tives OF Great Britain, Germany, Spain
Belgium, France, Italy and Portugal
for the protection of the wild animals
birds and fishes of Africa, which con.
vention, after being ratified by the
powers, is to remain in force for 1.
years. By thus acting in concert the
European nations who are most inter.
ested in Africa, through their exten.
sive colonial possessions, have formed
themselves into powerful game pro.
tective association, with jurisdiction
over the most extensive game preserve
in the world.
The area over which the provisions
of the convention are to apply includes
all that portion of the dark continent
extending from the twentieth parallel
of north latitude to the southern line
of the German possessions in south.
western Africa, and from the Atlantic
ocean to the Indian ocean and the Red
sea.
(. Under the terms of the convention
the hunting and destruction of vul-
lures. secretary birds, owls, CRATES
gorillas, chimpanzees, mountain zebras
wild asses, white-tailed gnus, Glands
and the little Libcrian hippopotamus
is prohibited. The young of certain
animals, including the elephant, rhi.
noceros, hippopotamus, zebra, ante.
lope, gazelle, ibex and chevrotain, are
protected, and also the same species
when accompanied by their young.
Particular emphasis is laid on the
protection of young elephants, and all
elephants tusks weighing less than %
pounds are to be confiscated by the
government if the animal was killed
after the convention went into effect.
A limited number of lions, leopards,
hyenas. offers, balloons and other
harmless monkeys, large birds of prey,
crocodiles, poisonous snakes and
pythons may be killed.

Harness. aoe. WITH Hor..,

GSF1eeo Goes with Home.
Whenever horse is sold the har-
ness in which it has been used to
working ought always to go with the
bargain. No two harnesses fit alike,
especially where the pressure comes
on the shoulder or neck in drawing.
The skin under the old harness has
been gradually toughened by the
pressure on one spot. But with the
new harness the pressure is shifted,
it may be only an inch or two, but it
comes where the skin IL tender and
will quickly break when exposed to
the collar. If the whole harness can
not go, be at least sure to secure the
collar with any new horse purchased,
SO the animal can work without be-
ing tortured. The collar once used
for one horse ought never to be used
for another.-MidlandF Farmer.

Eggs have brought good prices this
winter. and they give more profit in pro-
portion to the cost of the materials en-
tering into their composition than any
other animal product on farms. If the
flock il large and but few eggs are Sc

grain, lack Of animal food or to
having too many hens for the space oc-

DEALING WITH CRIMES I
CANADA.

From the Chicag0.Times Herald on Jan.
uary 18th, 1901.
1.-The citizens of the Dominion of
Canada have just cause to be proud
OF their record as law-abiding people.
The annual report of the criminal
statistics of the Dominion, which has
a population of over 100000, shows
that there were only twenty-five in
dictments for murder in 1899, of
which only two were left without
final action. Eleven of those indicted
were hanged, nine acquitted and
three confined as insane.
Canada is a country of vast proper
tions. Its people are scattered over
q wide stretch of territory, making
police surveillance particularly diff
cult and in many districts impossi-
BILE. Yet a city like New York or
Chicago alone furnishes far greater
criminal list every year than the
whole vast stretch of territory from
Quebec to Vancouver.
1.-THE Canadians ascribe their inn
munity from crime to the prompt
ness with which punishment is
meted out to offenders. When man
is caught red-handed in the act of
robbing another he is not released on
straw bail by some justice of the
peace from the slums, to go out and
repeat the offense. Sharp and sure
justice is meted out to criminals of
all kinds, the result being that when
the guardians of the public peace
succeed in bringing thug to the bar
they are seldom called upon to hunt
him a second time.
Furthermore there are few court
delays in Canada when a criminal is
brought to book. They have no
Dreyer cases over there. There are
no methods whereby Canadian Grim
inals can have the proceedings stayed
from month to month and from year
to year or after being convicted, ap-
peal from one court to another until
witnesses die of old age or opportun-
ities for corruption can be found.
''Nor does this swift method Of
treating with wrong-doers in Canada
leave the innocent unable to proper.
ly defend themselves. They have all
the opportunities and privileges that
our own laws extend to them. The
extent to shield the guilty is lacking
that is ALL
The above taken from the editorial
column of the Times-Herald gives
some idea of the Immunity from
crime that exists in Canada. and this
is one of the many inducements held
out for Americans to settle in the
district known as Western Canada.
The season of 1901 will see few Sec
tions of the country opened up for
settlement. They are attractive in
every respect. It is understood that
enc Of the best Indian Reserves IN
the famous Valley of the Saskat-
chewan will be opened up this year.
and an invitation is extended to those
desiring homes to make inquiries.
The price of the land is said to be
nominal. Besides these lands. the
several railway companies have lands
to sell; also the Government. For
particulars write to the Agent Of the
Government, whose advertisement
appears elsewhere.
