Saskatoon, saskatchewan, One of the
Favored Districts.
The following, clipped from the cor
respondence columns Of the Eau Claire
wisconsin, Leader, is but one Of many
letters OF a similar character that
might be published concerning Western
Canada, the land Of No. 1 hard wheat
ana the best cattle on the continent.
1t is a simple matter TO reach the lands
spoken Of, the Canadian Government
having agencies established at st. Paul
ana Duluth, Minnesota; Grafton, North
Dakota; W~atertown, South Dakota:
Omaha, Nebraska; Kansas City, Mis-
souri,; Des Moines, Iowa; Wausau and
milwaukee, Wisconsin,; Chicago, Hi
nois; indianapolis, Indiana; Sault Ste.
Marie and Detroit, Michigan; Toledo
and Columbus, Ohio, and by writing
10 or calling upon any of these agents
at these points full information can be
secured. This is a great opportunity
to secure a home free Of cost, or IL you
desire to purchase lands, they can be
bought now at prices much lower than
VIII exist in a few months. But read
what the correspondent referred to has
to say OF n particular district:
To the Editor of the Leader:
The rush of the land seekers will be
20 the prairie provinces of the Domin-
Ion Of Canada. The allurements OF a
SOIL that yields 40 bushels Of wheat to
the acre are too great to be resisted
ana an immense migration from this
country may be confidently predicted.

or any one leaving the United States
Tor Canada, but the Dominion authorl-
ties knew they had a good thing and
hey stuck to II. Their officials evident
y knew the value Of printers ink. They
spared no expense in letting the people
Of this country know that these lands
were there ana that they were exactly
as represented. They did more. They
sent out specimens Of the crops raised
and samples Of the grain. We have
had them here at four consecutive
street fairs presided over by one Of
their ablest immigration officers. This
gentleman spared no pains. He ex-
planned the value Of the lands and the
richness Of the soil from morning to
night TO all corners.
All this told in the long run. Sew.
eral went up from here to spy out the
land and, like Caleb, the son Of .Jepun-
neh, and Joshua, the son Of Nun.
brought back a good report and now
some ten families will leave here in a
few weeks for Saskatoon to settle upon
farms there, and others are preparing
to follow. OF course many will appear
shocked at tile idea Of any one leaving
the Stars and Stripes for the Union
Jack, but patriotism is but a nomencla-
ture after all, and our experience has
been that in nine hundred and ninety
nine cases out of a thousand, a man is
the most patriotic where he can make
the most money and do the most harm
to those whom he hates"

IMPURE BAKING POWDER SEIZED.
The New York Board Of Health Find II
Contains Alum and Rock, Declare 1t
Dangerous to Health and Dump
II Into ALa DiuAr

The Kew York Board Of Health Find II
Contains Alum and Rock, Declare It
Dangerous to Health and Dump
1, Into h River.
The New York papers report that the
Health Department of that city has
seized as dangerous to health nearly
two tons Of cheap mixtures sold for
baking powders and dumped them into
the onal scow to be destroyed. More
OF the powder was found In a Sixth We
nue. department store. The report of the
analysis Of the Health Department
stated that 1t was IAN alum baking
powder containing alum and pulver-
lied rock.
The different Health Authorities seem
to have different wayso Of REFRESHING the
sale Of bad baking powders. In Eng
land they have prosecuted the grocers
under the general law and broken up
the traffic. In Missouri the sale of alum
baking powder is actually prohibited by
law. In New York they seize the un-
wholesome stuff and cast 1t into the
river, without any discussion. The lat.
ter way is certainly effective.
The alum baking powders are usually
offered at a low price, ten to twenty
cents a pound, or with some prize, as a
temptation to the housewife.
Consumers can protect themselves by
buying only high-grade baking powder
OF established name and reputation.
DO not be tempted by the grocer to
take something else rs "just as good
or 'our own brand" for the trials show
that the grocer himself is often de-
ceived ny INSCRIPTIONS makers and is
selling an alum powder without know
ing II.
There are several good powders on
the market; let the housekeeper insist
on having what she knows Is right,
and not be induced to risk the life of
the family for an imaginary saving Of
q few cents.

Reflections Of a Bachelor.

New York Press: The difference be-
tween a man who lies and a woman who
lies Is that he knows he is lying.
Man Is better for a good woman thar
a bad woman; he is better for a bad wo-
man than no woman at all.
Only their conceit keeps men from dis
covering that their qualities about Which
women most care are their usefulness to
them.
What every woman would like to do
with every man who asks her TO marry
him would he TO accept him without hav-
ing TO marry him.

can no more help getting caught by men
with 1t down their back than she can help
looking surprised when she gets caught.
