He lived the heartless conQuer0r. and

France had Its eagle; but his wings.

and dipped In murders gore.

Who flashed their blades with tiger-zeal.

He strove to keep his country's right, by

And sighed when fell injustice threw the
challenge-sword to sword.
He stood, the firm. the calm. the wise,

He showed no deep avenging hate-no

He stood for liberty and truth. and
dauntlessly led on,
Till shouts of victory gave forth the

WESTERN CANADA AROUSING
GREAT INTEREST.

The Wonderful Yields of Wheat Attract
Ing Thousands.
Until the last five or six years but
little attention was given to that vast
area of grain-producing land lying
north of the 10th parallel. and imme'
diately adjoining the northern boun'
diaries of Minnesota and Dakota.
The Canadians themselves were
aware of the wealth that lay there.
but being unable to fully occupy 1t.
they have asked the Americans to
assist them in converting the land
from its virgin state to one that Will
largely supplement the grain-producing
area of the North American continent
and the response has been most lib
eral.
During the year 1901 upwards OF
10000 from the United States went
over to Canada, being induced to set
tie there by the reports that reached
them of the success Of those who mad
preceded them during the previous
years. This 10000 was increased to
10000 during the year 1902, and 1t Is
fully expected that there will be fully
$4,000 during the present year. The
work of the immigration branch OF the
Canadian government is not now be-
ing directed towards giving informa-
ton as to the advantages of settle
ment In Canada as it Is to extending
an invitation to the Americans to fol-
low those who have gone.
Those who have charge of the work
point with considerable pride to the
success of those who have been In
duced to take advantage Of the offer
of 100 acres of land free in Canada,
and have no cause to hesitate In con-
tinuing the invitation. Many OF those
interested say there are no more free
homesteads to be had in Canada, but
the writer has most positive assurance
from the Canadian government that
there are thousands of such home
steads to be had. and In one of the dis
tricts now being opened up fully as
good as the best, and it is probably
| the best.
The Canadian government has es'
tablished agencies at st. Paul. Mimi;
Omaha, Neb.; Kansas City, Mo-; Chi
cago, ILL.,; Indianapolis, Ind; Milwau
kee, Wis.,; Wausau, Wis., Detroit
Sault Ste. Marie and Marquette
Mich; Toledo, Ohio; Watertown, s
Dakota; Grand Forks, N. Dakota. and
Great Falls, Mont, and the suggestion
is made that by addressing any o.
these, who are authorized agents o.
the government, it will be to the ad
vantage of the reader, who Will be
given the fullest and most authentic
information regarding the results o.

Looking carefully around In all d.

a tree, forlorn as himself. the sentry

to Heaven, gave roar as If something
obstructed his utterance.
IF l had thousand lives I would
yield them all up to torture in such a
cause!" Then he sat down amazed at
his temerity in such a presence, but
Washington reached across the rough
pine table and grasped his hand. gave
him only one look which pierced deep
into his soul and smiled a knowing
smile which Silas Thornton under

nature rebelled. So it was small won
der that the lonely sentry yielded to
the cutlery of the flesh and resolved to
desert his post, throw over the poll
ticians and end his struggles against
the home enemies.
He wore a thin blouse, his panta-
looms, too short for his limbs, dis
closed nakedness; his head and bosom
were bare to the keen, sharp, wintry
blast, and through his apologies for
shoes his swoolen feet protruded, blue
and frost-bitten.

THE SENTRY OF VALLEY FORGE
A Tale of tho Revolution

"Curse the Continental Congress!
I'll desert to the British camp. They
have food, warm clothing, comfortable
quarters. I'll do it tonight"
Having reached this determination,
the sentry leaned his musket against
tree and began swinging his arms and
stamping his feet upon the hinty
ground, in hopes of obtaining animal
warmth by violent exercise.
Few know how near the infant re-
public came to being strangled that
dreadful winter at Valley Forge. After
defeating the British at Saratoga, with
the nation ringing with shouts, patri-
otto politicians guzzling wine and food
beside warm firesides in thanksgiving
for Washington's victory. the victori'
GUS army was tracking the snow with
blood from unshod feet all the way
from Whitemarsh to winter quarters
at Valley Forge.
From Dec. II to the 1Sth-seven
days-they tramped the nineteen
hundreds in bare feet, bareheaded, tat
tered rags; many other hundreds
crawling on hands and knees or car

shelter, weak with starvation, less

SLACK COVERS
Necessity Every Brown
County Farmer Will
Yet Adopt.

A gentleman who lost about ten
cents per bushel on his wheat caused
by the continuous rains of the first
three weeks in September, tells the
writer that he will never go through
ahother season without stack covers.
He figures that his stacks averaged
about 60 bushels to the stack and that
the loss this year alone would have
about paid the cost of the covers, and
tnat for the next five years he could
have the use Of them just for the
trouble Of taking care of them.
Upon inquiry OF Buttolph & Kurtz,
tent and awning manufacturers, it
was learned that there is one farmer
at least in the county progressive
enough to have been using covers for
the last two years. This farmer is
Geo.W. Dixon Of Gem township who
has had about about sixteen Of these
covers made for him. Three he had
made this year cost him $40. O.25 piece.
They were made Of 10 oz. duck, l4x34
feet. He uses them on his grain
stacks until he threshes, and then
fnis them quite useful on his hay
stacks. He claims they have have
fully paid for themselves already.
It is certain the climate of this
country has undergone change, and
levery one will admit the falls are very
much wetter than during the first ten
years OF settlement. II we are to
continue to use the header the stack
cover must come into general use.
The interruption of tnreshing by a
rain when the stacks are half thresh-
ed is a common occurrence. The de-
lay in resuming work or the damage
to grain from being threshed too
soon causes loss enough to pay for
lcovers. The man with covered stacks
can get cheap job Of threshing done
.Iby q machine that would otherwise
slhaye to stand idle waiting. Many
Instances can be given where wheat
|threshed before the rain graded one
northern, while wheat OF the same
quality threshed during the present
week is all going no grade.
