THE BEST HE EVER SAW.
A MissOurian PrOnOunces ON the
Farming Possibilities of
Western Canada.

Just at present considerable inter-
est is being aroused in the fact that a
few new districts (of limited acreage)
are being opened out by the Canadian
Government in Saskatchewan and AS
siniboia (Western Canada), and any
information concerning this country
is eagerly sought. Mr.. w. r. Corser,
of Higginsville, Lafayette Co., Mo-, was
a delegate there during last summer,
and writing of his impressions he
says:
81 found surprising yields of grain
of all descriptions. One farmer Wis
tied threshed of IT'S acres:
900 bushels of wheat from Is acres,
40 bushels to acre.
1000 bushels of barley from 10 acres,
Is, 900 bushels of oats from $50 acres,
100 bushels to acre.
''The samples were all No. 1.
81 also saw a considerable number of
stock. Swine do we'll and there is no
disease amongst them. They are a
good source of income to the farmer.
The cattle on the range beat anything
I ever saw. Fat and ready for beef,
fully matured and ripened on the
nutritious grasses of the prairie. am
firmly convinced that this country of
fers better facilities for a poor man
than any have ever seem"
Information concerning these lands
can be had from any agent Of the gov
eminent, whose advertisement ap-

SAWDUST.

There has recently been invented
chine for the purpose of extracting
the products of sawdust.
There is a large planning mill in
North Carolina where no fuel is used
put saWdust. 1t is first dampened
and then thrown into the furnace
Some 20 blishments in Europe
make oxalic acid out of sawdust.
There are six in Germany, 10 in Eng
land, one in France and one in Bel
GUM. The sawdust of some wood is
better than that of others for this
purpose. Yellow and white pine,
dried, contain "a per cent. of oxalic
acid; oak, SO per cent.
Sawdust is used in Scotland to some
extent for making floor cloth and
linoleum, certain kinds of heavy
stamped material to be used instead
Of wall paper, coarse wrapping paper
and millboard, and certain coal sub
stitutes for domestic use. 1t is also
employed (mixed with melted rosin
and pressed into squares) in making
fire lighters.
In addition to the gases generated,
the following products have been OBJ
tanned from 1000 pounds CT sawdust,
viz: Char, 100 pounds; acids, $50
pounds; water, 24S pounds; tar, 1862
pounds. No record was kept of the
gases, but test was made Of them
for heating and illuminating. They
were found to be superior to coal gas,
except that they were unpleasantly
pungent. This, however, would not
have been the case had the gases I'M
dergone a purifying process.

what Colonel Dick, of Ohio, chairman
of the investigating committee said
II cannot too extravagantly express
the high appreciation in which the COM
mittee holds the work done by your 10
wa congressman. As an examiner and
cross examiner Judge Smith proved
himself to be of superior service at ev'
cry meeting. His inquiries were con-
else and incisive. The witnesses could
not evade his questions. / regard
Judge Smith as one of the strongest
men in court practice that l have ever
met, and l have met many strong men
in Ohio and elsewhere. His work in
this matter deserves the highest praise
that can utter or that YOU can write.
The committee owes him every need
of praise and the country owes him
more than it will give him. Moreover,
West Point owes him credit for being
one of the foremost in purging that in
stitution of its only foul blot"
We have constantly felt sure that
Judge Smith would become a useful
and influential congressman. His hun
dreds of friends here will be pleased
to read what Col. Dick says of him.

Iowa is republican and has practical
ly been under republican control
since it was an infant, in 1856. The
state has $500, 900 in its treasury and
owes no man a nickel. Taxes are
lower than in any state about us. The
institutions of the state are managed
in manner to win attention of all the
states. For over twenty-five years the
state has never lost cent by defalca-
ton, misrepresentation or otherwise,
Iowa has no bonded debt and never had
one, except small amount advanced
during the civil war and afterwards re.
paid by the government. Iowa is a
great state, and public officials as q
rule, of all parties, have well repre-
scented its splendid citizenship.

mate form of domestication than that
which he now commonly assigns to
himself. He is at present resident Of
our houses on unwelcome terms, and
he makes himself, quite naturally, as
much an enemy of the household as
possible.
"Let the rat be welcomed and made a
friend Of the family, as has been done
In few cases, and he becomes a diff
ferent sort of fellow altogether. No
longer forced to steal his food, he be-
comes a playmate and a companion.
The sleek and well groomed gray rat is,
barring the ordinary badness OF his
tail, quite as pretty and graceful a
creature as the squirrel, and there is no
reason why we should not become so
much accustomed to the appearance of
his tail that in time we should regard ii
as quite ornamental"
