| WHEN IS A BABY NORMAL?
Medical Expert Tells How a Mother
Can Answer the Question
Beyond Doubt.

When q person first becomes parent
he or she watches the little new
born creature with the most intense
anxiety. The fear sometimes haunts
the parent that perhaps the babe is not
mentally perfect The father tries TO
solve the problem, but his mind has
nothing to hold to, nothing to guide it
to conclusion. A few glances may tell
that the baby's body has all the outward
evidences of being normal, but the par
ents' endeavors to understand the slow
ly-awakening mind prove futile. How
much greater would be my joy" a
mother often says to herself, "if knew
that my baby's brain is as it should be"
According to some experts, however
this suspense is needless. They declare
that the mind of baby is normal if the
child is able to do certain things at GER
tain ages 1t is only when the baby acts
differently that fear may well seize the
mothers heart, a fear that her babe may
be foolish, that only its animal nature
will grow, while the mind remains
dwarfed, sluggish, in sort of continual
twilight.
According to specialists, the mental
symptoms of the baby may even be re-
luced to a catalogue. "A normal
child" says DR.. Louise Fiske Bryson, in
the Medical Critic, "is sensitive to light
when day or two old, starts when
gently touched at the third day, tastes
at the end of the first week, and strong
odors cause contortions during the
first hours of life. Food, bath,
objects about him, please him dur
ing the first month; tears over
take the baby when three weeks old, and
smiles come shortly after Music
charms during the second month; then
consonants are used for the first time;
tickling causes laughter, and objects can
be clasped with four fingers. At four
months the baby begins to initiate; sits
up at the sixth month; stands without

Second Part.
The second part of the Canadian
prairies embraces the great wheat grow
ing belt of the country which is easily a
half larger than any other in the world.
1t includes about $50 1000, 900 acres. AS
it is comparatively free of broken land,
large lakes and rivers, about LIE, 000, 900
acres of it can be brought under the
pillow. Placing a farmer on every half
section 1920 acres), it can comfortably
locate 100000 farmers or 1000, 900 of an
agricultural community. A glance now
at what the farmers of the territories
are doing will give better idea of what
can be done in this great wheat-growing
zone. The territorial government re-
ports show that in 1903 there were raised
1859, 149 bushels of spring wheat off
of S37 ,234 acres, an average of 1904
bushels per acre; off 440,662 acres of
oats there were grown 14,179,705 BUSH
els, an average of 32.17 bushels per acre;
60 ,667 acres produced 1,741 ,2O9 bushels
of barley-24.65 to the acre, and 80, 431
acres produced 292,855 bushels of flax
seed, 9.03 to the acre. AS but 1 1885, 434
acres or little better than one per cent.
of the entire wheat-growing area of the
territories was under crop, little fig
uring shows Is per cent. of the entire
country under wheat will raise the 20O,-
600, 900 that Great Britain annually re-
Quires from outside countries.
