Timothy or CInxer.

After an experiment in fattening
horses the Illinois Experiment Station
says in effect about timothy hay for
horses that will be surprising to many
horseInen:
a feature of the experiment was the
demonstration of the worthlessness of
timothy hay. something that horse flesh
ers will do well to keep in mind. Tim
othy is good to haul to town and sell
to the other fellow. Glover beats it all
around. In the experiment horses fed
on corn, oats and clover gained 277
pounds each in ninety-two days. The
lot fed on the same ration except i'm
othy was substituted for clover, he
gain was 142 pounds and the timothy
ration cost more than clover.
From this it is plain that timothy Is
an Improbable raw material for farm
feeding operations. If you must grow

ATTRACTIONS OF WESTERN
CANADA.
Magnificent Crop Return for the
IQ0R

Magnificent Crop Return for the
Year 1905.
'The manner in which the Canadian
West has attracted settlers in recent
years has caused many of our jour
nails and public men to sit UP and take
notice, to use a current phrase. From
every European country and from al
most every State in the Union large
numbers of settlers have fiocked to the
prairie provinces of Canada, where
free homesteads and wide opportuni-
ties are open to all who desire to avail
themselves of them.
The greatest factor in attracting set
tiers lies in the Inherent richness of
soil and suitability of climate for pro-
ducing what is universally considered
to be the finest wheat in the world
the NO. hard" of Canadian growth
first class. This year the harvest re-
turns were: Wheat. 100000 bush
els; cats, 100000 bushels; barley,
100000 bushels and when it is con-
sidered that the entire population of
the three provinces-as evidenced by
the quiquennial census just completed
lis only $4,000, it is easily seen that
the lure of tie Canadian West is in its
agricultural potentialities.
Another feature which attracts the
settler is that railway construction is
proceeding with such rapidity that al
most every district is within easy reach
of outside markets, and that good
prices for all lines of farm products
rule practically from the commence
ment of agricultural operations. This
is a factor which did not prevail when
the earlier settlements in the West
were made in Canada and in the Unit
ed States, and has given a great i'm
petus to Canadian Western settlement
In recent yea IS.
The free giant system of homesteads
which prevails in the prairie provinces,
by which every settler who is able and
willing to comply with the conditions
of actual settlement (by no means on
erous) Is given 16G acres free, except
SO for entry, is a great drawing card,
and in the last fiscal year gathered in
over $4,000 additional to the West
ern population, of which 5I,796 were
from the United States.
The further fact, as is strongly
brought out by the agent of the Cana
dian Government. whose address ap-
pears elsewhere, that a splendid COM
mon school system, practically free, pre-
walls throughout the entire country,
and is easy of access in even the most
remote districts, is another great in
ducement to the settler who has the
future welfare of his family in mind,
and this, coupled with the fact that
Western Canadian law-Snd order are
proverbial. completes circle of good
and sufficient reasons why the tide of
immigration has set in so steadily to-
ward the country to the north of our
boundary line.

CANDY EATING our OF DATE.
Practice No Longer Observed IN the
Theaters of New York.

Theaters of New York.
Have you noticed that candy eating
in theaters is almost a practice Of the
past? How often nowadays do you see
men and women munching caramels
DUNG the performance Of a play? How
often do you hear the merry bang of
the chocolate machine which for a pal
try 10 cents and the turn of a knob
shoots sweetmeats into the air after the
style of released jack-in-the-box. Are
the matinee girls of your acquaintance
in the habit Of carrying boxes and bags
of bOnb0ns to the theater?
Managers of attractions which play
the various chief cities Of the country
assert that in New York candy eating
is not what it used to be and they won
der if the wave of popular disapproysl
which has banished the candy box from
Broadway playhouses will finally reach
Chicago, St Louis. Cleveland, Detroit
and the other great theatrical centers
of the United States. Once candy was
sold in the Hobbies of most of the local
playhouses. Now only a few of them
offer for sale sweetmeats of any kind.

better adapted to dry climate than
any other wheat yet introduced. Farm

Farming Is Changing ms Great
Industry.


There is not in America any man
who is more familiar With agriculture
as business than Professor l.. H.
Bailey. who, for years, has been ut the
head of the Cornell Agricultural Col
lege, and has contributed much to the
farmers sum of farm knowledge. Writ
ing in the Century, Professor Bailey
says:
The character of farming is chang
ing rapidly. 1t Is coming more and
more to be an efficient, profitable and
attractive business. With here and
there an exception, in the past we have
not given much consecutive thought to
the misunderstanding Iille as much as
the merchant gives to his business or
the doctor to his. 1t has been so
easy Il business that unframed men
could succeed in it The change In
economic and social conditions IS
breaking up the tradition. Farming
is becoming more difficult, and the old
methods must go. In the future only
the well-lnfCrmed and e;iicient-rhinking
man can succeed; that is. only The edu-
Gated man.
The country Is TO offer other advan.
tages to the educated man than merely
to be good farmer There are good
opportunities for leadership on public
questions-probably better opportunity
and with less competition than IN the
great cities. The very fact that city
representation is increasing in the leg
islatures should make the able country
representative more of a marked man.
The growth of the institute movement,
of the grange and other rural organi-
cations, gives fresh opportunity to de-
velop leadership of a high order.
1t seems TO me that by the very ma.
ture Of the progress we are making,
the college man must go to the farm.
In fact, college men have been going
back from the beginning of the agricul-
tural education movement. Statistics
show. that very large percentage
actually have returned to farming, and
this in spite of the fact that cities have
been growing with marvellous rapidly,
and that the whole system OF agricui-
tural colleges and experiment stations
has been developing and calling for
men. Considering the limitations I'm.
