Editorial Correspondence.l

Editorial Correspondence.1
Moose Jaw. AssiniboiA
Farmers Review,
Chicago. July %, 1903.
Most of the prairies in the United
States have ceased to exist. Man has
broken them up with orchards, for
ests and farm buildings. But In
Western Canada the prairies still
stretch grandly from horizon to hori-'
ION as yet unmarried by the hand OF
man, save where the iron road has
been laid. To a city man there Ia
something deliciously restful about
the vast grassy solitudes.
Numerous clumps of trees mark the
course of the Assiniboine river, which
keeps in sight of the railroad for some
distance.
Grass is one of the notable things
about all the landscape of Western
Canada. 1t is a remarkable fact that
the entire length of the Canadian Pa
cific railway from it's eastern termi-
nus to the Rocky Mountains is over
plains where grass grows. The sage
brush appears at some points, but
never to the exclusion of grass. There
is thus not mile of this country that
cannot be used for some agricultural
purpose-either for tilling or ranch
ing.
Moose Jaw is town Of over 1000
inhabitants, and one Of the most i'm
portant places in Assiniboia, being the
center Of very good farming coun-
try and a great grain and stock ship
ping point.
Near Moose Jaw agriculture and
ranching go hand in hand; for near
the town was seen herd Of beef
cattle several hundred in number. On
another side was seen a good sized
herd Of dairy cows, the property Of
the citizens in the town.
"In riding over the prairies we saw
many good fields of alfalfa. The great
need of the country is timber, which
grows readily where planted, as was
demonstrated by the shelter belts on
some Of the farms, and the trees on
the residence lots in the town.
"Stories were told the writer Of
men who last year cleared from their
wheat crop more than the land on
which it was grown originally cost
them. This is easy to believe, in view
of the large crop and high price for
wheat last year."-Henry F. Thurston.
BY sending your address to any
agent of the Canadian Government
you will have mailed to you a copy OF
ar atlas, railway rates, ETC., giving
fullest information regarding Western
Canada.

To mention the big things OF the
Worlds Fair of 1904 would be to give
a catalogue of the greatest achieve
ments Of man in many lines Of en-
deavor. For example: We shall see
the largest locomotive ever built,
weighing ninety-five tons and having
twelve driving wheels. We shall hear
the largest organ in the world in the
most beautiful festival hall ever built.
We shall see some of the greatest sea-
coast defense guns manufactured for
the United States government. In the
Government Building, which is the
largest exhibit building ever erected
by federal authority at an Exposition,
there will be a model of half of
battleship for the Navy display. The
United States Government has also
erected bird cage SO large that tall
trees grow within the Enclosure, in
which will be held captive during the

Blades of Even LENGTH.

In days when tavern brawls were

ness demanded that the blades of
chance combatants should be of equal
length. In a sudden ARRAY there
would be no thought Of measuring
swords, so the authorities took the
matter into their own hands DIT the
gates of the city of London, where
every gallant was liable to be chal.
lenged, and If the public official found
any blade beyond thirty-six inches
the smith stood by to snap off the
steel to the required length. Ir
Queen Elizabeth's reign this was the
common practice

Chambers of Commerce.

Foreign chambers of commerce are
Of Austro-Hungarian origin, for in
1870 the first Austro-Hungarian Cham.
Der Of Commerce was opened in Con-
stantinople; afterward similar institu-
tions were opened in Alexandria,
Paris and London. In the spring of
1903 an Austro-Hungarian Chamber of
Commerce was opened in Melbourne.
The English, adopting the example
Of the Austrians, founded Chamber
Of Commerce in Paris. rhe Austrians
have been far surpassed in number
OF these institutions by the English,
who now have thirty in foreign coun.
tries and 100 in their own colonies.

been 10th to believe such a statement.
But such is the tact. The exhibit pal
aces of the Louisiana Purchase EX-
position average much larger than
those of Chicago and are greater in
number. About 100 acres Of floor
space are provided in the various pal
aces of the present Worlds Fair and
more than twenty buildings will be
used for exhibit purposes. The larg-
est of these is the Palace of Agricul-
ture, which covers twenty acres. The
next in size is the Palace of Transpor-
tation, covering fifteen acres and con-
tanning four miles of railway tracks
for the exhibit of locomotives and
cars. At the Chicago EXPOSITION
there were practically no outdoor ex-
hibits. At this Worlds Fair about 100
acres are given up to outdoor displays,
supplementing in a most pleasing
manner the hundreds of thousands of
indoor exhibits. At the Chicago EX-
position one building was used for
no less than three important depart
ments. At the Worlds Fair in ST.
Louis four buildings, covering forty
five acres, are given up to the same
four departments.
The total cost of the Worlds Fair
is estimated at from forty to fifty
million dollars, exclusive of the value
of the exhibits. The Palace of Ma
chinery alone will contain exhibits to
the value of eight million dollars.

ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION WILL BE
GREATEST EVER HELD ON EARTH
Estimated of Exhibits. from
Fifty Million DolarsN1Ies of Wonderful
Displays More Buildings

II is now a little more than two
mosths before the gates will open
upon the Worlds Fair at st. Louis and
She public will be invited to see the
greatest exposition that has ever been
created. The vast exhibit palaces are
complete and many of them have been
finished for several months. Within
the next two months all of them are
to be frightened with new coats of
paint so that, on the opening day, the
magnificent array of palaces will ap-
pear as fresh as a newly blossomed
rose.
No one, no matter how vivid his i'm
agination, can picture to himself the
scene that will be presented when the
Exposition is complete The more one
sees this greSs4 collection of exhibit
palaces and countless other buildings,
the more deeply impressed he be-
copies with the grandeur of the under
taking. AS the days grow longer and
the air becomes balmy with the
breezes of spring, the Exposition will
take on far greater activity than it
has seen during the boisterous days
of winter In spite Of the severe
weather, work has not ceased upon the
construction of the Worlds Fair for
more than a day or two at a time and
there is every expectation and prom
los that it will be complete on the
opening day.
