DoN'Ts FOR AUToMosILIsTs.
Some Things TO Avoid In the Interest
of Safety.

Some Things TO Avoid In the Interest
of Safety.
Il Don't allow your chauffeur to drink
liquor while in charge of your car. II
running your own car, avoid rum your
self.
Don't run on the wrong side OF the
road except at narrow, intersecting
streets.
Don't try to see how close you can
run to a pedestrian. Give him even
more room than they require. Many
walkers have heart trouble.
Don't take any kind of a curve OF
turn at twenty miles an hour; better
go four miles and be able to do it
again.
Don't put oil on your registration
number and throw dust on it. An hon
est man isn't afraid of Identification.
Don't toot your horn in passing
horses unless in approaching from be-
hind, and then not unless absolutely
necessary. There are still some spir-
tied animals.
Don't blow your Gabriel horn con-
tinually in city street; a little of it is
music; too much is disagreeable, irri-
tating racket.
Don't forget to light your lamps one
hour before sunset; then you will
have more chance than the wagon
ahead without lights and be within
the law.
Don't grab at things that concern
the chauffeur, and don't take pas
senger again that has grabbed once
if you are ever able to go out again.
Don't run away after running down
anybody; you'll stand better chance
if you stay.
Don't ever act like anything but an
intelligent gentleman.- Outing.

A few days ago the board Of county

resolutions alleging that the prosecu-

of having forged certificates of ac-
acknowledgements, uttered forged deeds,
ETC., as shown in six indictments re-
turned against him by the grand jury,
were instituted by political enemies of

the hearing of three Of the charges two
resulted in acquittal and the other the
jury failed to agree, indicated that it
was useless to continue proceedings

THE CALL OF THE CANADIAN
WEST.
The Greatest Wheat Crop Of the Con-
tinent.

The Greatest Wheat Crop of the Con-
tinent.
The year that has just closed has
done great deal towards showing
the possibilities of Western Canada
from an agricultural standpoint. The
wheat crop has run very near to the
100,000,000 bushel limit that was look
ed upon as too sanguine an estimate
only a short time ago, and the area
that has been broken to fall wheat
for the coming harvest will go a long
way toward enabling the farmers OF
the West to overlap on the 100,000,000
bushel estimate next year. And while
the spring and winter wheat have
been doing SO we'll during the past few
years, the other cereals have been
keeping up with the procession. Rye
and barley have made immense.
strides, and peas and fax have been
moving steadily along. Dairying.
also, has been successfully carried on
in the new provinces, and In every
stage the farmer has been striking
1t rich" To such an extent has the
success of the West taken hold Of tho
outsiders that the rush Of our .Ameri-
cans to Saskatchewan and Alberta,
which was looked upon as marvellous
last year, bids fair to be largely ex-
ceeded in 1906, and as there are still
millions Of acres of free homesteads
available, which the building of the
new railways will render accessible
to the markets, new wheat lands will
be opened ere long. Amongst the
first to avail himself of the opportun-
ity presented will be the American
settler. In large number of Ameri-
can cities Dominion Government
Agents are located, who are able and
willing to give the latest and best in
formation in regard to the new dis
tricts which the railways will open
up, and there will be no abatement OF
the rush to the Canadian prairies dur
ing the coming season. Some time
since a poet in the columns Of the
Toronto Star had the following
stirring lines, which throb Of the
Western spirit:
There's stir in the air, there's q
thrill through the land,
There's a movement toward the
great West;
And the eyes Of all men for the mo-
ment are turned
To the country that we love the
best. s
For tbs Canada's day In the worlds
calendar,
And to this merry toast let us sup:
Here's to the land, the young giant
of the North,
Where the prairies are opening up.s
They come from the East and they
come from the South,
They come DER the deep rolling
They come, for they know they Will
dwell meath a flag
That makes all men equal and free.
Then, once more the toast, and let
every man rise
And cheer e'er he sips from the cup:
Here's to the land, he.young giant OF
the North,
Where the prairies are opening up!.
