NEW YEARS CALLS.

New Drink to Replace the Old
Time "AppIe-Jack."
twenty-five years ago the custom Of
making New Years calls was delight
full one for all concerned, until some
of the boys got more 'egg-nog' or apple
jack than they could successfully
carry.
Then the ladies tried to be charita-
bic and the gentlemen tried TO be as
chivalrous as ever and stand up at the
same time.
II anyone thinks there has not been
considerable Improvement made in the
last quarter of century i'm the use Of
alcoholic beverages. let him stop to CON
slider, among other things, the fact that
the old custom of New Years calls and
the genteel tippllng is nearly obso-
lete.
The custom of calling OH ones
friends, however. at the beginning Of
the new year, is a good habit and an
other good habit TO start at that time
is the use of well-made Postum instead

FILLING UP THE CANADIAN WEST
The American settler Is Welcomed
TO Canada.

The American settler Is Welcome d
10 Canada.
A number of the leading newspapers
on this side of the line have been no
ticing the growth of the Canadian
West in recent years, and draw attcn-
ton TO the fact that there seems To be
no abatement of the influx of settlers
to that great grain growing country.
The Buffalo Express thus refers to the
subject:
Canada West continues to grow.
There were 4,114 homcsteads entries
there in July OF this year, as against
3,571 in July. 1905. Canada plumes
herself over this fact with becoming
pride. But what appears TO make our
neighbors happiest is the statement
that of these Ala homesteaders, 1,212
were from this side Of the line. Little
is said about the 81 Canadians who re-
crossed the border to take up homes
in Canada West, of of the sos from
Great Britain, or of the 1926 from
non British countries. 1t appears that
the item in this July report that makes
Canada rejoice most is this of the ] PIP
American farmers who decided TO try
their fortunes in Canada West
The compliment is deserved. The
1,212 were mostly from Dakota and
other farming States, and go into Can
ada fitted better than any other class
of immigrants for developing the new
country. They take capital with them,
too, say Canadian papers proudly. In
every way they are welcome over
there"
/, AS the Express wei, says. the Amer
lean is welcomed to Canada, and the
reasons given are sufficient to invite
the welcome. The American farmer
knows thoroughly the farming condi-
tons that prevail in the Canadian prai-
rie provinces. and is aware of every
phase of agricultural development in
recent years. In practical knowledge
Of what is wanted TO get the largest
return for labor and Investment he is

settler. He knows what is required TO

The agent of the Canadian Govern
ment. whose address appears else
where. says that the difference be-
tween the manners and customs of the
farmer from Dakota. Oregon or Min
nesota and the farmer from Manitoba.
Saskatchewan or Alberta is not nearly
so marked as that between the farmer
of the Maritime provinces and the On
tario tiller Of the soil. Hence the wei
