Deafness Cannot Be Cured

oy local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one
way 10 cure, Deafness, and that Is by consttu-

Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflam "a
ing, and when it is entirely closed deafness il
the result, and unless the in lammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to It's normal

partment of agriculture for the Cana
dian territories resides in the fact that
they show the successful and diversi-,
fed development of agriculture in
every section Of the immense country,
with the gaps rapidly closing up be-
tween the older settlements.
1t has taken long time to discover
these territories, but now their contin-
ued prosperity and growth is one of
the most indisputably sure things Of
the future. The country is not above
being visited, like other regions, by
occasional periods of unfavorable
weather, but it is SO vast that it can
be thus affected only in parts while it
is, least Of all countries, susceptible to
general business depression.
It's staples are the necessaries Of
mankind, and every Improvement in
transportation, whether it be the build
ing of a railway to Hudson Bay, the
opening Of the Panama canal, the
cheapening Of transcontinental freights
or better lines Of steamers on the Pa
ciic, is bringing the country nearer to
the grain-consuming markets of the
world. The price of land here is still
so low that it cannot be affected by
depression in other lands, and people
with diminished means will continue to
seek here the opportunity to make a
fresh start.

Last Yeal. i'm the Canadian Terri
tOrieS-Area Under Cultivation In
creased by More Than 100000
Acres

Special to The Journal.
Regina, N. w. r., July 23.-The sta
tistics issued by the departm emit of
agriculture for the Northwest Terri
tories show that the area under crop
in 1904 is estimated as follows: Wheat,
1,054,212 acres; oats, 654,649 acres;
barley, 111,979 acres; flax, 20,938 acres.
These estimates are generally found,
however, at the end of the season, to
have been considerably below the
truth. AS they are, they show that the
area under cultivation in the Canadian
territories has increased by 100000
z acres over the last season, and that it
has fully doubled in the last five years.
That is a fairly satisfactory showing
of progress, but 1T gives no adequate
idea of the extent of the settlement
that has been taking place in this
country within very recent years
> While we have an increase in cultiva'
tion of 100000 acres, the fact must
also be considered that last year not
less than 100000 acres were taken up
for settlement.
= Enough has been done in all sec:
tions to demonstrate the capabilities
: of the country. Hence the anxiety of
those who know to take up additional
, land before all the homesteads have
been preempted or the corporation
lands have reached their full value
At every point it will be found that

q very proper feeling Of pride in my
young one; SO at first it did not cause
me any wonder when I saw that al.
most every woman I encountered in
my travels had a smile to bestoW upon
me. Yes, sir, I would be ambling
along in the wake of tall, severe
looking matron,' and would try to pass
her in the narrow street. and she
would move aside with an expression
of displeasure; but as soon as she
would see the baby her lips would
part and her eyes brighten, and in
almost every instance she would nod
her head toward the young man In
the carriage. e
Women driving by would turn
their heads to smile; and after a little
while I would keep my eyes upon the
face of any woman advancing toward
me. The young ones had a quick and
shy little CLEAN; middle-aged matrons
would smile frankly and broadly and
old ladies, with dim eyes peering thru
or over the spectacles, would look as

settlers who have been in the country
few years are thus devoting their
spare resources to the acquisition of
more land rather thans.in pressing the
development of what they already hold.
Even as far back as the census year
of 1901, over one-third of the farmers
exceeded 200 acres, while many ran
into the thousands. Those who have
lived in the country long enough dis
play their appreciation in this I'M
mistakable manner.
Mixed Farming.
Again it is interesting to notice
that while great areas of breaking are
being sown to wheat each year in
eastern Assiniboia, Saskatchewan and
northwestern and southern Alberta, the
cultivation of other grains increases in
even greater proportion.
The more one studies these figures
the more he is impressed with the
greatness of these fertile plains and
the wire range of their products as well
as the remarkable climatic conditions.
Wheat seeding, for instance, was
commenced and finished in the Edmon-
toO
or 500 miles north of the frontier,
almost as early as in the districts adj
joining the United States.
The acreage of oats and barley has
increased much faster than that of
wheat, the proportion of the coarser
grains having increased from one-third
to two-thirds, roughly speaking, Of the
total wheat area. This is due to the
development of mixed farming, which
has been remarkable, especially in cen
trail Alberta, in the country tributary
to Calgary. The market for meat and
dairy products here has been found so
advantageous, owing to the develop,
ment of the mines in British Columbia
and the growth Of the towns, that the
cultivation of wheat has been dis
carded on lands which formerly yielded
an average of twenty-five and even
twenty five bushels to the acre.

WHEN SPRING is HERE
1t Is High

1t Is High Time for You to Take
Notice of Climatic Changes.
There is no one in this section of
the country, with the exception Of the
coal man, who will not welcome the
return of spring. The winter has
been one Of the most severe in the
history Of the northwest. Weather at
ordinary 80 degrees below zero failed
TO solicit a bit of unusual conversa-
ton. People were silently thankful
that 1t was not so below. Many people,
not strong enough to withstand the
ravages of terribly cold weather, have
been weakened by the severe winter
Their bodies have been racked in the
endeavor to keep out the cold. On
the other hand, cold weather has been
q boon to many people. Young folks,
with fast-running blood, think no
more Of go below" weather than q
swallow does of a summer shower
They thrive on 1t and enjoy the win
ter sports and the winter snow and
cold.
But when spring comes, that tired
feeling comes to nearly every one, and
1t is a sure sign that the body Is in
need Of q tonic to prepare 1t for an
other weather change. The physical
man becomes accustomed to cold
are new elements to be fought when
spring comes. Winter foods are not
so welcome to the stomach and
there should be thorough house
cleaning for. the house Of flesh. In
the beginning of spring Is 1t special
ly helpful to use Walther's Pepton-
lied Port--that ideal tonic and
health-builder. 1t is composed, as
the name implies, Of rare port and
pure pepsin. 1t will most surely cure
you Of that worn OUT feeling and
will set your stomach at rest. Wal
