Vast Sums Realized Annually From
This Source.
Commercial Agent Fleming re-
ports that the twelve Government
creameries in Alberta Province last
year turned out for the market 925.-
900 pounds of butter, which aver
aged 21.35 cents. The product was
sold in British Columbia, Yukon,
China and Japan. The Government
operates and turns over the entire
net profit of these creameries to the
200 farmers supplying the milk.
Fifteen private creameries have also
been established in Alberta. and
these exported In 1905 $4,000
pounds of butter. Thus the farmers
of the Province received one-third of
a million dollars last year from this
one source. During the past year
Canada exported 34,520,705 pounds
of butter, valued at $7,010,799;
cheese, 15,379,587 pounds. valued
at $22,437,540. The total valuation
of the cheese, butter, bacon and
hams exported from the Dominion in
1905, including October, amounted
to s42,107.33S, against s38.457. ASP
for the year 1904. These exports
alone amounted to 100000 more
than all the products of the forest
Trough and manufactured), and
SIS, 100000 more than all the grain
and grain products exported from
this country during that period The
exports of butter from the United
States during 1905 were valued at
$2,876,628, while the value of the
cheese exported was only $935.934.

WHEN A TIRE BURST IN INDIA.
Exciting Experience of a Party Of
Automobiles.


A thrilling story of how the side
slipping of a motor car nearly resulted
in a man being roasted alive, is told
in Motoring Illustrated The incident
occurred in Duhlia, a village on the
road from Delhi to Bombay. The car
was being driven slowly past a Jain
temple, amid the whooping of the ma
tives and the beating of tomtoms
AT the temple entrance" stood
Two priests, regarding us with no
friendly visage. Bang! and our back
tire has burst-a deep rut in the road
mas caught the wheel, too. In a mo-
ment we swerve around, and, horror!
smash right into the temple door.
Alas! We have committed sacrilege,
and OF the worst kind
We set to work repair the tire,
and just as we have finished heart
rendlng. earpiercing shrek rings out
from the temple inclosure We rush
in, brushing aside two juvenile priests
who try to stop our progress. A crowd
OF whitercbed priests stand us and the
inner sanctuary. But the three of us
are old football players; the priests
are down like nine-pins.
We tear the curtain aside and
stand for moment rooted with her
ror There on rude altar our poor
native motor boy is being literally
roasted alive. Only seconds pause
to take in the situation and with a
rush We are on them.
Selling the uplifted knife FROM the
nearest fanatic, we cut the leather
strings and lift the fainting sacrifice
from the altar. Then we beat the
priests off, regain our car, and ride
away amid a shower of missiles.

The Zuni Indians Great Feat.

me Zuni Indians Great Feat.
The medicine men among the Zuni
Indians perform a feat at the annual
corn festival which surpasses the
famous mango-growing trick of the
Hindu. Many scientists have been
present to witness this strange cere-
mony, but have never been able to
fathom the mystery of it.
In front of the southern opening of
the medicine lodge large square of
clean yellow sand, carefully smoothed
and packed, is spread With a cere-
monial arrow figures, representing the
Great Spirit, the earth, sun, sky and
rain, are drawn. There are also the
symbols of the corn and a bountiful
harvest. The indentations made by
the arrow are then flied in with pig
ments, blue for the sky and clouds,
black for the earth and chrome yellow
for the harvest. The middle of the
square is left vacant. This picture in
sand painting is most pleasing spec
linen of barbaric art
The hour for the ceremony arrives,
and at the right moment the medicine
man comes forth from his lodge and
takes a seat in the opening of the
lodge, facing the sand square. The
warriors and chiefs arrange them
selves around the square, according to
rank. The ceremonial pipe is then
filled and lighted, and the medicine
man blows one puff in each direction
OF the compass ana two to the heav-
ems. He then makes an address, go
ing over the past history of the tribe
and the kindness of the Great Spirit
and his care. He concludes with a
prayer for the continuance of this ia
vor.
The great moment has arrived.
With impressive solemnity the medi-
cine man thrusts the sacred arrow in
to the sand, withdraws i, ard places a
grain of corn in the hole thus made
Carefully smoothing the sand over it,
he resumes his seat, while the assem-
bled chiefs smoke their pipes in stolid
silence If the Great Spirit condes-
cends to answer the prayer of the
medicine man, and he generally does,
the corn will sprout and send up a
shoot. After an interval of fifteen or
twenty minutes the sand seems dis
ti,rbed at the spot where the grain OF
corn was planted and soon the slender
green blades of the sprouting corn are
seen above the surface The plant
continues to grow rapidly and natur-
ally during the day. and by the next
sunrise the silk and tassels appear.
By noon the stalk ana ear have reach
ed full maturity and the ripcning be-
gins. Finally the blades and husks
turn yellow and rattle when the wind
shakes them. All this we must bear
in mind, has been done in thirty-3ix
hours. On the morning of the second
day the corn growing is complete. The
medicine man now addresses the
watchers who in company with him
have watched the plant grow, for II is
never left alone. With appropriate
ceremonies he symbollzes the harvest
by stripping ear from the husks and
placing the corn in his bag for future
use. The stalk is pulled up by the
roots and hung over the door of the
lodge.

SUGGESTIONS FOR MAKING
OVER LAST SUMMERS
GOWNS.

In these days when many materl-
ais are used in common by three
different generations of women, a
transfer or interchange of garments
is really very easy matter. After
all, the material itself counts for far
less in a gown just now than does
its correctness of line and the indi-
viduality expressed in its trimming
This correctness of line is a very
simple matter, involving nothing
more than the selection of becom-
ing design and intelligent obedience
to it's directions. Formerly one had
to choose the design solely in accord
apce with the available amount of
goods on hand; and weary work 1T
was to figure out just which widths
would supply the necessary sleeve
lengths, or where the new fronts
were to come from, after sleeves and
skirts were provided for. We are
spared all this work this season, for
the smartest frocks show lines OF
trimming that permit any amount
of piecing in the material, up and
down, across or on the bias. This
enables us to select any becoming
pattern for the remodelling, quite
regardless of uneven or broken
lengths.
