are favorable dairying regulations of
which the people are justly proud. In
dividual butter and cheese making was
tested at an early day and resulted, as

success. The construction OF suitable
houses for the care OF milk and prod

success Of the cooperative system In
Denmark and other European couu-

placed at the disposal OF the people
throughout the country. This led to
the establishment of chain OF cooper

milk, or the cream separated at home
when SO desired by separators, Is taken
to the dairy station, there tested and

into butter by the experts. Advances
are made from month to month which
are found to be very convenient by
settlers who commenced farming with
limited means and balances are

schools are national, non-sectarian and
free; that is, there Is no tax for at

large portion of the cost. The balance
Of the cost OF education is met by a
tax OF about SO year on each quar-
ter section (160) acres. Schools under
highly certificated teachers are In all
towns and villages and country dis
tricts where there are dozen or more
children to attend them. The growth
OF the education system Will give a

were S45 schools with grant OF $780,

Opportunities Waiting.
The Canadian West Is no longer In

the prosperity begotten Of energy and
enterprise and willing to bear testi-

better settled countries, but there IL the
