coLoNIzING CANADA.
Done for the NOrtbwest-GrOw-
ing Flax on n Large Scale.

Some five years ago the Canadian gov
eminent did strenuous advertising
throughout the cities of the United
States with a view of disabusing the
peoples minds of the idea that western
Canada was waste Of frost and snow.
The government caused free lectures to
be given, established bureaus from
which large quantities of literature
about Canadian possibilities in the way
of farming and home making were is
sued and gave exhibitions of agricul-
tural products at state and county fairs.
The farmers of the middle west in
particular emigrated in large numbers,
with the result that an American in
vasion of Canada began, and continued
SO steadily as to produce what a recent
writer has called the characterization
of Canada"
One Of the most noticeable results Of
the invasion is shown in the introduce
ton OF flax growing on a large scale.
The Canadians thought it unwise to at
tempt the cultivation of that grain, as
they believed it hard on the land and a
great protector of weeds. But the
Americans have proved to the contrary,
and with land selling at $12 an acre and
yielding an average Of Is bushels to the
acre Of flax the newly-bought farms
have paid for themselves during the
very first year

THE HARDNESS OF TREES.
Depends "A Good Deal UDon the CIi-
mate to Which They Have Be
come Accustomed.

An expert nurseryman says the hardi-
ness or non-hardiness of trees depends
largely upon where the seeds from
which the trees in question sprang came
from. Satisfactory results are seldom
experienced by planting a seed obtained
from the sunny south, say. By planting
seeds gradually further north, however
trees may be at length hardened and ac-
climated until a seed from such a tree
may be reasonably expected to thrive
and mature its fruits.
Trees, like people, says the Philadel-
phia Record, acquire their habits from
the climate in which they live. The
northern tree knows instinctively when
the time has come to ripen its fruits.
The southern tree follows the same in
stinct, being in no hurry. as there is lit
tie likelihood of real cold With trans
paintings further north its habit
changes.
The great trouble with most people is
that they want to jump a tree from
south to north at one move. This same
idea is evident in the attempt to bring
various fruit trees from Russia to the
northern United States
Apples and plums from the land OF
the great white car have taken kindly
to the below zero conditions of the gen.
tie Dakotas.

GET sEAsIcK IN A HOUSE.
Peculiar Eject of Attempts to Walk
in StOrm-Beaten buildings
Floors Were Solid, Too.

At recent meeting of the Women's
Literary club of Baltimore Mrs. Charles
c. Morgan read a paper in which she
cited a peculiar but well-authenticated
fact concerning some storm-beaten
houses on Cobb's island, off the eastern
coast of Virginia. The houses were
eventually washed away by the en-
croachments of the sea, but for a long
time they were firmly imbedded in the
sand at such an angle that the wanderer
could walk in the second story windows
from the bluff, while the floors ali slant
ed at an acute degree.
There was not the slightest danger at
tendant upon walking up or down these
floors, yet no one was ever found who
could traverse their length without be-
coming seasick. Experienced sailors,
who knew no qualms in midocean,
turned faint and giddy on trying to
walk these perfectly steady planks. To
all the neighborhood the buildings were
known as the "seasick houses" and that
the seasickness was not due to imagin-
alton was proved by persons who never
had heard of the tradition experiencing
the same unpleasant results.
Mrs. Morgan, who resided on the
mainland near by, concluded her &C
count Of the houses by saying that a
small dog belonging to her husband
which followed that gentleman foot to
foot" as the negroes term it, never
could be induced to follow his master
across the mysterious thresholds, be the
command ever so peremptory or the in
ducement ever so strong.

MRS. PYMACHER'S PIE.
Here's an IdyII of the New York stock
Exchange -SpecuIatOrs APprs-
ciated TOOthsOme Dainty.

Pymacher was a telegrapher en-
ployed by the stock exchange firm in
which John w. Gates is a special part
ner, says Everybodys Magazine. Py-
macher brought for his lunch a noble
pie, a composition of Mrs. Pymacher's.
The manager of the Office tasted that
pie, found it good. and gobbled it. Such
are the notions of property in the street.
rs there any more where that came
FROM" asked the manager, a man of
delicate tooth. There is MORE" said
Pymacher, land better, if possible"
1T is not possible" said the manager.
He told all the Chicago capitalists, who
came to that office. He made their
mouths water. The next day Pymacher
brought in a lemon pie. an iridescent
dream, a tender flower. Half a dozen
millionaires ate of it, with tears of joy
and thanksgiving. What shall we do
for Mrs. Pymacher? Shall we build her
a monument" Buy her a hundred
shares of Northern Pacific" says Gates.
So they bought her 100 shares at 11314.
sold it at 135. The next day came the
corner, and a share of Northern Pacific
was worth $1,000 But Mr.. Gates had
showed his eagerness to reward a su-
preme artist. If old Rembrandt were
alive ''the Gates crowd" would ''let him
in" on the best thing it had.

NATIVES OF SWITZERLAND.
Cannot FOrswear Allegiance Merely
by Becoming NaturRIized Else
where-ShOuId Have Passports.

Students and other residents Of the
United States who may be natives Of
Switzerland, will be interested in a com
munication to the state department from
Consul Lieberknechta at Zurich, who calls
attention of students and others to the
necessity Of providing themselves with
passports.
Many naturalized American citizens
who were formerly Swiss citizens labor
under a Misrepresentation as to their old
and new citizenship rights and respon-
sibilities. They return to Switzerland
without naturalization papers or pass
ports, only to find themselves Swiss cit
liens again.
The consul adds that a person never
loses citizenship. no matter how long
he may absent himself, unless he goes
through certain necessary formalities.
If he returns and is owing a military
tax he is compelled to pay the same, in
spite of the fact that he is an American
citizen.
The only way to be released from old
responsibilities is by making G. written
request to his home community for such
release, submitting proof at the same
time that he has acquired American citi-
Zenship

HE Welded IN LONDON.
President ROOsevelt's Marriage Reg
lister Mt st. Georges Attracts Many
Curious American Tourists.

President Roosevelt's marriage regis
ter is in London, at St. Georges, Han
over square, and so many American
tourists have fiocked to see It that. for
convenience sake, it has been placed
by itself in an accessible alcove of the old
church building, says the New York
Tribune.
President Roosevelt's marriage to
Miss Carow took place so long ago-17
years ago, to be exact-that few per
sons remember tht the American presi-
dent was married in a foreign land. He
is, It is said, the only American presi-
dent whose wedding was not celebrated
under the Stars and Stripes.
Tourists take great interest in the
certificate, in Mr.. Roosevelt's occupa-
ton of ''ranchman," and in Miss Carow's
signature. They study the auto
graphs of the witnesses, and they won
der who these persons were. They OBJ
serve with pride that the canon Of York,
and not a simple reverend" performed
the ceremony.
