SEEDING COMMENCED IN
WESTERN CANADA.
The Prospects for Large Acreage to
Be SoWn in Wheat.

st. Paul, April "a, 19O7.--Word has
been received at the office of the
Canadian Government in st. Paul that
seeding has commenced at various
points throughout Manitoba, Saskatch-
evan and Alberta.
The heavy snowfall during the past
winter. has left the ground in splendid
shape for successful seeding opera
lions. The fine weather of the past
few days has taken much of the frost
out of the ground and during next
week there will scarcely be district
in which the seeder is not being oper-
ated. The most optimistic conditions
exist and in all districts the farmers
are busy getting things in shape.
There will be a very large acreage
sown in spring wheat, oats and barley.
At many points throughout the three
provinces the newcomers are busy I'M
loading their stock and effects, work
ing night and day in order to get on
their farms and become active agen-
cies in the effort TO. make the year
1907 the banner year in grain produc-
ing in Western Canada. AS compared
with districts many hundred miles
further south than this, it will he seen
that Western Canada ranks amongst
the first in the line of seeding opera
lions for the present year. 1t is safe
to say that farmers who get in their
crop before the goth or oath of May.
will receive magnificent returns. A
number of those coming in this spring.
who had not their land prepared last
fall, will break up enough land to get
in crop of oats and barley and prob
ably some fax. This. together with
the vegetables they will plant, will
give them ample food for themselves
and stock during the coming summer
and winter These early seeding oper-
atoms are not confined to one district
but are spread over a country 900
miles long by 400 miles in width.
The agents of the Canadian Govern
ment, located at different points
throughout the United States. are
busy giving information regarding the
many new districts that are being
made available for settlers. Low rail
way rates, information and literature
are given on application to the agent,
whose name appears in advertisement
elsewhere in this paper.

Over Blouse or Jumper.

The over blouse with the kimono
sleeves is an unquestioned favorite,
as IL everything bearing the Japan
ese stamp. This one is distinctly
novel, at the same time that it is en-
inently simple and can be trimmed in
almost limitless ways. In the Illus
tration it is made of champagne col
ored marquisette and is trimmed with
velvet ribbon, but in place of the lat
tice work of the velvet any banding
or applique can be employed so that
there is limitless opportunity for the
exercise of individual taste. The
waist is one of those very generally
useful ones that is adapted alike to
silk, wool and cotton and which can
be made suited to afternoon or morn
ing wear, as it is finished in one way
or another and worn over one guimpe
or another. Made from some pretty
batiste or similar material with bands
of embroidery, it would be an exceed
ingly simple garment, suited to morn
ing wear, while as illustrated it is
really quite elaborate in effect
The waist is made with fronts and
backs that are tucked at the shoul-
ders and gathered at the waist line.
The sleeves consist of straight bands

tapes inserted to regulate the size or

Hundreds and thousands of stran-
gers have visited the old Nourse
house, but it was not until the year
1885 that anything was done to place
a permanent mark on the spot. Then
the Nourse Monument Association
erected a monument to the memory
of Rebecca Nourse on the old home
stead, and now the Danvers Histori-
cal Society purposes to buy the old
house to use it as a home for the
society.
The house stands short distance
from Salem's famous Witch Hill. 1t
Is on this hill that eight supposed
witches were executed at one time,
and the Rev. Nicholas Noyes said, as
the poor creatures hung in the air:
What a sad thing it is to see eight
firebrands of hell hanging there!"
The Rev. Nicholas seems to have
enjoyed the spectacle, and when he
twitted one of the women with being
witch she turned on him and said,
with pardonable fury:
"You are a liar! am no more a
witch than you are wizard; and if
you take away my life God will give
you blood to drink"
