rats, the rodents being so brave that
live stock has been attacked. A horse

Gov. Myron T. Herrick, Of Ohio, is
equally as confident as Senator Depew
that Roosevelt will be elected. OF
William Randolph Hearst he said:

tie.
g 'Ah,' it said, I have passed
through the Matching age, the creep
ing age and new l am in the mucil-

and its safe bet it will stick there
for good. "-Wasnington Post.

OF Jesus himself. This idea finally
took shape in what came to be known
as Jefferson's Bible-a work which he
had bound handsomely in red leather,
with the title Morals of Jesus"
printed in gold letters on the back.
The work was begun at the White
House when jefferson was president
but at that time he did not carry 1t
very far. Having discussed with the
famous DR.. Priestley the teachings of
Jesus as compared with those of
Socrates, he wrote to him, saying:
you are the person who, of all
others, would do 1t best and most
promptly. You have all the materials
at hand" This referred to a sugges-
ton which he had made to the effect
that Priestley could take up the task
which he had commenced.

II that Jefferson himself finally car.
ried out the design at Monticello. BY
this time he had abandoned his
original idea, which was to make a
book of the life and teachings of the
Savior for the use of the Indians, who
would be likely to understand it more
easily than the Bible on account of
its greater simplicity, and had decided
to compose the volume for his own
private entertainment and instruction.
He used four languages in order that
he might have the texts side by side,
convenient for comparison. The maps
were for incidental study, showing
the places which the Savior visited.

to Edward Dowse that he considered
"the moral precepts of Jesus more
pure, correct and sublime than those
of the ancient philosophers"
On April 81, 1903, he wrote to DR..
Benjamin Rush an estimate of the
merits of the doctrines of Jesus. 1t

consideration and was accompanied
by a few lines in which the writer

WESTERN CANADA
Three Divisions Affording Great Chances for
MISUNDERSTANDING, Wheat-Growing
and Mixed Farming.

The old Romans used to say that
Gaul was divided into three parts;
SO is the Canadian North West. Gaul's
divisions were political; those of the
Western Canada prairies are created
by the unerring hand of nature.
The First Division.

lakes and rivers, and the operations

Large Quantity Of Free Homestead
Lands.
There is yet a large quantity of
government land for homesteading in
this country, and as In everything
else. "the early bird catches the
worm" Those who come first are
first served. When 1t Is preferred to
purchase railway or other company
lands they can be got at from IS per
acre up. This section cannot be
better closed than by showing prac-
tically what Is made by wheat grow
ing In this district. The average from
the first of operations is twenty BUSH
els per acre. Breaking the prairie, as
first blowing is called, is of course,
an exceptional expenditure, as when it
is once done, it is done for all time.
This costs about $3.50 an acre. After
the breaking, blowing and seeding,
harvesting, threshing and marketing
all expenses combined amount to
about $5.25 per acre, that is IL man
likes everything done 1t will cost him
1925 per acre. If he does the work
himself he is earning wages while
producing at that figure. Now, as the
average yield is twenty bushels, and
the average price 60 cents-$12 per
acre-the difference between the re-
suit and cost, $6.75, is the profit Of
grain growing year in and year out
in the great wheat belts of the Cana
dian prairie country. If man has
a half section Of land and puts half

The Third Division.
The third division of this great
country lies to the north Of the wheat
belt; between 1t and what Is known
as the forest country. AS wheat grow
ing implies the raising Of all cereals
that can profitably be raised in the
country, the remaining branches OF

Many Smoke; Few Know How To.

Many smoke, Few Know ROW %.
ITS really remarkable, considering
the 10000, 100000 cigars smoked in the
United States every year, how few
men really know how to smoke" said
a prominent tobacco dealer. There is
one mistake in particular that even ex-
perienced smokers sometimes make.
That Is in not keeping the tobacco
burning properly.
About 80 per cent, should say, Of
all the cigars sold are better on the
outside than the inside. This isn't
wholly to deceive the prospective buy
err; 1t requires good quality of leaf
to shape the outside Of cigar, while
the filer may be more readily com.
posed OF inferior tobacco. The smoker
who permits his cigar to burn inside
the wrapper loses the best part of it..
Practically any cigar is rank when
smoked through the center. The
aroma Is lost and the smoke is bitter
and acrid.
Putting on cigar that is not burn.
Ing properly only increases the diff
Guilty. The smoker gets more Of the
smoke OF the inside leaves, and the
whole cigar becomes hot from the eff
fects OF the increased combustion in
the center Of 1t. The proper thing, the
only thing to do under the circum.
stances, is to light the cigar again,
taking care that wrapper and all are
included in the lighting. II this plan
were followed a good many smokers
wouldn't change their brand OF cigars
so often"

crops or grain can be grown on the
land.
While there are no large lakes or
rivers in this whole country there are
numerous fast running streams fed
the year round by melting SHOWS in
the mountains, furnishing an abund.
ance Of the coolest and purest water,
the best for beast as we'll as man.
Englishmen and Americans In the
western territories are bringing In
their herds as fast as they can and
leasing or purchasing land in lots
from 1000 to 10000 acres from the
Dominion government. An idea Of the
growth Of the industry will, however.
be gathered from the fact that in 1899
there were but 41,471 head of cattle
shipped and sold from the ranches.
These figures ran to 55,129 in 1900,
and to 100000 in 1903, averaging $40
per head for the owners. But 1t takes
great many ranchers and a large
number of cattle to cover an area Of
200, 100000 acres, the area available
for ranching in the Canadian North
west.
1t is not at all necessary that large
investments should be made at the
outset. Many men commenced with
small capital and small herds, and
have worked themselves into large
herds and great wealth.. There is still
in the country plenty Of room for
those who desire to go and do like
| wise.
The Second Part.
The second part of the Canadian
| prairies embraces the great wheat
growing belt of the country, which
is easily half larger than any other
| in the world. 1t includes about $780,
100000 acres. AS 1t is comparatively
| free of broken land, large lakes and
rivers, about 125,000,00O acres of it
can be brought under the pillow. Plac-
ing a farmer on every half section
| (320 acres) it can comfortably locate
100000 farmers, or 100000 of an
agricultural community. The terri
torial governments reports show that
in 1903 there were raised 16,629,149
bushels of spring wheat off S37,234
| acres, an average of 1886 bushels per
acre; off 440,662 acres of oats there
we're grown 14.179,705 bushels, an av-
erage Of 32.l7 bushels per acre ;

An authority on the subject has
stated that agriculture in any country

During the years from 1882 to

largely In the effort to keep the army
Of France, whose population is 10000
600 less than that Of Germany, equal
in size to Germanys, the consequence
being that many recruits are accepted
who are bound to succumb to the
