suited tosagricultural purposes such as
swamps, arid tracts, forests and noun
tains are deducted from the district in
question, there will remain 100000
acres of good land, divided as follows:
Manitoba, 23,000,000 Assiniboia, 49,
900, 900; Saskatchewan, 100000 and
Alberta, 100000 acres. This land be-
longed originally to the dominion gov
eminent and the railway companies
and 100000 of the 100000 acres in
Manitoba have already passed out Of
the hands of the first owners and be-
come the property of settlers either as
purchasers or homestead claims.
Many Homestead Entries.
The land of the territories did not
find such ready market until recently,
but it is now going very fast. Only TO-
100000 of the desirable and available
total of 100000 acres in the territor-
les have been settled upon. During the
last fiscal year which ended June 80,
the records show that there were near
ly $4,000 homestead entries, represent
ing a total area of 2,373,120 acres, and
during the same period the amount Of
railway land disposed of to immigrants
total for the year Of 100000 acres. II
the transfers continue at this rate it is
an easy example in arithmetic to deter
mine that the land win all be disposed
of inside of ten years.
In order to show what it may be
expected to yield when it all passes
under cultivation, some deductions can
be made with present conditions as a
basis for estimate. Although nearly
all the best land in Manitoba, amount
ing to 100000 acres, has passed into
the hands of settlers, the area in crop
this year is only 3,189,000 acres. A
50,000,600 bushel crop was raised in
this province last year and the pros
poets for the present season warrant
the belief that the record will again be
broken. The number of acres under
cultivation in the territories this year
is estimated at 100000 acres and
there will certainly be a large increase
next year. There are men here who
claim that they will live to see a bill

with the Stanislaus series, found
every one here seemed to take it for
granted that was the very original
of the picture book putinto life.

about the tables, and it became often
times very embarrassing.
Then somehow l got used to it and

How some American women with

1t is almost like being an anatomical

Many of them did not seem to think
whether l was deaf or had any feel

apparently. l would often hear a
casual conversation: Why, just look
at her shoulders. Do you think the
picture of the Stanislaus girl has such
broad shoulders as she haS?'

ripened wheat. 1t was appropriate. In
some countries gold is the magic word
which causes an eager light to burn in
the eyes of men. Out here it is wheat.
All things center upon it, and for good
reason. AS the millions of the earth
increase, the cry for bread is rising
higher all the while, and those who can
answer it will become rich. The hard
wheat of Manitoba and the Northwest
territories rank with the best of the
world. 1t commands the highest price
in the market. Along toward the end
of summer, when the sun blazes over
the fields and turns the swaying grain
from green to gold with it's steady
heat, the farmer reads the weather re-
port in his newspaper and then throws
it aside. He turns his eye to the sky
the first thing in the morning and the
last thing at night. The days just be-
fore the beginning Of harvest are criti-
cal ones for the wheat grower. A
thunder shower with an accompani-
ment of hail would mean the loss of
hundreds and probably thousands of
dollars in damage to his maturing
grain. 1t is the period when he has
done all he can for his crop, and must
be dependent upon the caprice of the
elements to finish it~for him. AS a rule
everything comes out all right but it
is always a period of great anxiety.
The great wheat belt of the Canadian
Northwest includes the province Of
Manitoba and the territories of Assini-
boia, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Their
combined area is 230,82S,040 acres, a
territory equal in extent to nearly twice
the size of the immense state of Texas.
Only portion of this vast section is
suitable for agricultural purposes. The
best land in Manitoba is confined to
the southwestern portion; in Assiniboia
the choice soil is located in the eastern
third of the province; the desirable
claims in Saskatchewan are in the
southern portion, while the best farm
ing country in Alberta is in the north
ern part. The government authorities
estimate that after all the land I'M

the same time he knew his Place.
Chauncey spotted Therese, and saw

too Brash at the first Crack for fear
that she would give a Scream and

Accordingly he nerved himself and

He said he knew 1t was hardly
Proper to brace a Young Lady without

he hoped she would overlook his Bold

Kind, they would be Awful Sore.
Chauncey pulled out his Cuffs and
began to deal Polite Conversation of

EW YORK, Aug. 30.-All the
great artists who illustrate
books and magazines draw
} a distinctive type of girl.

~ y a distinctive type of girl.
There is the Gibson girl, the Chrlsty
girl, the Wenzell girl and the Penryn
Stanislaus girl.
Each is picture of such enhancing
feminine loveliness that poor man
is completely bewildered in trying 10
decide which is the most to be adored.
Many and many a girl has claimed
to be the original Christy or Gibson or
Wenzell girl, but not one has ever
claimed to be the original Stanislaus
girl, for the every good reason that his
type is so distinct and is so COM
pounded that very few girls could with
any reason claim TO have inspired such
loneliness.
No artist has ever created type
from one model, however.
The Gibson girl is a blending of a
half dozen models.
So is the Christy the Stanislaus and
the Wenzell. Each contributed some
thing TO the ideal whole.
From ones head, anothers arms, an
others eyes, etc, etc., is the way the
picture was created.
Now, however, there has been dis
covered a girl in New York who is so
exactly like the idealized Stanislaus
girl that one cannot believe that Mr..
Stanislaus did not create his type di
rectly and absolutely from her.
Is ST. Paul Girl.
Yet he had never seen her, for she is
a ST. Paul girl who has only been in
the East a short time.
Her name is Lucille Egan, and her
father is a prominent jeweler in ST.
Paul, MINI.
Like many another girl, she became
stage struck, and coming to New York
a short time ago, her beauty imme-
diately induced Henry B. Sire to en-
gage her for the New York theater.
From the first night she appeared
people in the audience have called her
the Stanislaus girl and so common has
it become that she is now called Miss
Stanislaus in fun by the other girls in
the theater.
There are advantages and disadvan-
tages. of course, in such prominence,
and in the following story Miss Egan
herself tells of them:
AS Told by Herself.
What girl wouldn't like to be known
as an ideal Stanislaus girl?
YES, 1 must admit it is somewhat
pleasant sometimes to be a 'Stanis-
laus girl
But there is reverse side to the
question. A great many times it is
districtly unpleasant and embarrass-
ing. While there are many people who
say nice things to me as a Stanislaus
girl, there are a lot of people, women
especially, who insist on making me
uncomfortable, as only women can.
Perhaps they do not mean to do this,
but ii seems as if they were criticising
me to my ears alone.
For instance, 1 will hear this sort
of thing as 1 go into a restaurant:
That Stanislaus girl? She is too stiff
and does not carry her shoulders right.
Well, if that's the original Of the Stan
islaus girl he has certainly idealized
her.
Friends of mine. had often spoken
to me of my striking resemblance
to the Stanislaus girl, but from
ones own friends all that they say in
the way of compliment goes in one ear
and out of the other. I thought it was
simply due, perhaps, to a little uncon-
