Mr.. Adams has thus impressed up
on teachers the necessity of Il careful
and comprehensive study of the lit
erature OF the teaching profession.
For lawyer or doctor to rely sclely
upon the results Of his own practice
to- form his professional opinions
would be absurd. He should have
become 3" saturated witts the theory
and philosophy ~ his calling that
each case bec"ules an illustration Of

others. from the cryStalliZation of
these experiences into creeds and
from those definite directions whose
observance will save the Young
teacher from many au unpard"uahle

learn all there is to know about this
ability to govern. still less may he
eXemplify it IN each days work bu:

American Farmers in Western
Canada.

Practically all Of the American i'm
migrants find their homes in the
cities, villages, and spacious farms of
the west. AS a considerable portion
of the British immigration lodges ia
eastern Canada, the American inva-
sion looms relatively large in the vest
than it is, compared with the whole
human influx into Canada. Why do
these Americans. the very cream of
the farming population of the wealthy
American west, seek homes in for
eign country? Briefly the answer is to
be found in the lure of free or cheap
lands in western Canada and the in
duceme1t to turn the old farm into
cash at high prices Farms in Iowa
and Illinois are worth from seventy
five to one hundred and twenty
dollars an acre Farms in western
Canada that in their virgin state will
produce larger crops may be mad for
the taking or for from five dollars to
fifteen dollars an acre. To these lands
turn also the American tenant farmer
and the hired man. The free lands in
the humid part of the republics west
are gone Population has crowded up
to the one hundred and first meridian,
the general western limit OF the
humid belt. Beyond lies the cattle
country and irrigation. Tie Ameri-
can farmer with a family OF growing
boys around him sees no way to keep
the family together but to emigrate
to the last free land country on the
continent. western Csnada,-th last
west So he sells out, moves west
and settles his sons around him; to-
gether they muy homestead and pnr-
chase several thousand acres. They
will put this cheap land into wheat

drive simultaneously nine turrows

reasonably count on twenty tnshels to
the acre, which is less than the Nan
itoba averge for more than tAenty
years. In years Of high prices there
is fortune in single crop. Good
farmers sometimes get forty ard fifty
bushels of wheat to the acre. Think

DROWNED IN CHESTERFIELD.
Mr.. Ross MuIIoy Lost His Life While
Duck Shooting.

Ruby, Nov. 6.-The people of Ruby
were very much shocked and saddened
last night about Z O'Clock when it
was reported that Mr. L. E. Mulloy,
bookkeeper for McGregor d Huntley,
had received message from Chester
field informing him that his brother
Ross, was drowned while shooting
ducks on Grants pond about nine
miles below Chesterfield. 1t seems
from what can be learned over the tel
ephone that party from Chesterfield
were on camp hunt and using sepa-
rate boats aud that Mr.. Mulloy's cap
sized while out of sight and hearing
of the others and that he was drowned
while trying to swim ashore. He was
about % years old, we'll known and

TALE Of THE TRENCHES.
Russian Soldier, Going Back for
Money, Touched Off Mine and
Destroyed Japanese.

The Manchurian Army News prints
an interesting story of how Japa-
nese night attack upon Svei-tsi-ying
redoubt was foiled by the cupidity of
Russian sapper. Owing to an alarm
being sounded, says the story, Michael
Ruizhkof, a sapper engaged in laying
fouglsse mines, left his tunic, contain
ing twenty 1oubles. at the end of the
gallery. The electric connections
were not established, and the mine
was useless, but Ruizhkoff lamented
that if the japanese made a counter
mine and exploded it his money would
be lost.
When the Japs retired a sapper
named Rosenberg offered to steal
down and get the coat if he was given
half the money. It was pitch dark,
and as all the electric lanterns had
been stored. Rosenberg insisted on
taking matches, though he would have
been shot had he been caught. He
had not returned before the Japs made
a surprise attack, relying on the
darkness. A company of them passed
over the mine field, and the Russian
engineers were groaning that they
could not explode it, and were about to
ask for volunteers when there was q
terrific roar, and the hillock swarm
ing with Japs shot into the air.
Rosenberg never came back. 1t is
supposed that he got into. some Of the
cross galleries, and, either through
using match or some other act oi
carelessness, exploded the fougasse.
His death and disobedince of order:
were well paid for by the destruction
of half Japanese company and the
foiling of their attack.

ply OF nourishment and leaf buds are
developed into fruit buds. This pruning
In summer should be confined mostly
to heading back the too fast growing
branches. II on the other hand the
center OF the tree n much thinned out
many OF the fruitbearing branches are
removed and the energies OF the tree
are still further directed towards wood
growth The growth OF the tree might
also he checked and fruit buds devel-
oped by sowing the orchard 10 some
cover crop after the middle OF the sum
mer. Withholding OF water would serve
the same purpose. or the pillow might BE-
made to run a little deeper so as to cut
off some Of the surface-feeding roots
and root prune the tree.
TIME TO PRUNE.
The time when pruning should be
done is determined by the purpose such
pruning is intended 10 serve and By the
healing OF the wounds, Pruning Of
trees 10 encourage fruitfulness as has
just been said should be done In sum-
mer when the trees are In active
growth. preferably In June or July.
Pruning for wood growth on the other
hand should be done when the trees
are dormant The best time Is In the
spring before the buds start.
PRUNING NEGLECTED ORCHARDS
With the general farmer who Is not
making a speciality Of fruit growing the
orchard Is often much neglected, and
the old trees nearly always bear small
worthless fruit. II there is a favorable
season and promise Of fruit the trees
may receive a more or less heavy ap-
plication OF the saw, but usually they
remain for years without any attempt
at either pruning or cultivation. I'm
pruned and uncultivated orchards new
er put forth their energies In the d.
rection OF large crops OF fine fruit. They
are generally found TO be 10 choked with
branches that fruit production is prac-
tlcally impossible. The question often
arises, can neglected orchard be made
productive again. and how would one
20 to work 10 remodel IL? The reason
such an orchard does not bear is be-
cause II has gone too much TO wood
growth Consequently to get II to bear
the wood growth must be checked
gradually and fruiting stimulated, The
proper method Of treatment Is to prunc
moderately, taking out all dead limbs
and a few OF the worst offending
branches, and letting light and air into
the tree. The second season some more
may be taken out. and the suckers
from the first years pruning removed
The third season the trees may be
brought into proper condition. By this
gradual pruning the trees are not
shocked so as to kill them nor Is their
vitality impaired.
Following his suggestions on pruning
In general, Prof HUT gives specific al.
reotion for pruning old trees, also pear.
plum. cherry and peach trees, and
bush fruits; for painting and dressing
OF wounds, etc. and concludes with n
