 from Crop Experts.

Most of the states of the union felt the unusually severe winter or I906-5
 and the effects of the succeeding late spring were everywhere apparent
 Corn was planted two and sometimes three times, the winter wheat suffered and generally there was nervous feeling as the retarded growth was in evidence. From the Dakotas to Texas the feeling of dread existed, and the fears were entertained that the crop of corn, wheat. oats and barley would be a distinct failure. How far this was the case is best left to those who passed through the experience. Natur- ally the same conditions were preva- lent throughout the province of Mani toba. Saskatchewan and Alberta. in western Canada, and with from 250.. 900 to 300 900 farmers there from the United States large degree of inter- est was manifest in almost every state of the union. for every state has some

AMERICA FOR AMERICANS.

The National Farmers Union in it's annual convention at Little Rock, Ark, passed a resolution condemning for eign emigration into this country and demanding that 1t be stopped
 Such a resolution as this, and in such a body of the citizens of this country as composed this convention of the Farmers National Union, is of the utmost significance showing the trend of sentiment in the hearts and minds of the mighty masses of this land, the masses that shape the poli- cies of this country, who direct it's destinies whenever they take upon themselves to speak out and express their will upon any vital question, making 1t an issue.
 This convention was made up of the very best men, farmers, typical and representative citizens of their re- spective Statesmen who, when they speak do so from their honest and earnest convictions and with the de- termination to do what they propose to do. These men were the delegates
 
 speetive States and they came as far away as Oregon and Washington, from Illinois and Indiana, from Kansas, Ok lahoma and Indian Territory, and from every Southern State-from all the great Southwest. They were the rep resentatives of and spoke for more than 2,000,000 farmers of this great fn a ra the rights that are theirs as sover- eigns of the soil, as American citi- Zens. and they are going to accom- plish every end they have in view, not one of which is not founded upon the eternal yerities of right, justice. truth, honesty and the Golden Rule.
 In this matter of foreign emigration, history is simply repeating itself. in a measure. Years ago an attempt was made to prevent foreign emigration. The New England States, filled with manufactures, wanted cheap labor, wanted the pauper element of Europe to fill this country to overfiowing that they might obtain labor for their mills and factories for a song. They killed the movement.
 Every manufacturing interest and trust interest-eyery corporate inter- est in this entire Union of States, stands today clamoring for increased immigration and laxer laws regulat- ing the introduction of emigrants for the same reasons that actuated the New England people. The coal mines of the land are filled with labor i'm ported from the overcroWded, congest- cd countries of Europe The street car system of New York is already manned by cheap foreign labor In- deed. this cheap and unreliable for eign labor is gradually taking all the places where labor is needed.-The Co-OBerator

 but the effect was lost, as it had been long enough in the limelight to prove its high standing amongst the agri- cultural sections of the continent. The heavy strain placed upon it was not too great; it has shown that the faith placed in it has been warranted, and it is this year producing undoubted ev- idence that in agricultural possibili- ties and resources it stands among the first of food producers. A late spring delayed seeding from the usual early April period until late in May, and in many cases well on into June. And with what result? It is a little Q. fly to tell the result, but that there will be a three-quarter crop is almost ab- solutely certain. The yield of wheat in 1906 was 95,000, 900 bushels; 1907 it will be between 70,000000 and S0,00O,-

He refused to pardon the negro, and the case was then appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States. where it was pending at the time of Boards death

TAKE THEM OUT Or Feed Them Food They Can
 Study On.

When a student begins to break food, there are only two things to do; either take him out of school or feed him properly on food that will rebuild the brain and nerve cells. That food is Grape-Nuts.
 A boy writes from Jamestown, N. r., saying: "A short time ago got into a bad condition from overstudy. but Mother having heard about Grape Nuts food began to feed me on 1t. It satisfied my hunger better than any other food. and the results were mar vicious. l got fleshy like a pod fel- low. My usual morning adaches disappeared, and found I could study effects of it.
 My face was pale and thin. but is now round and has considerable color. After l had been using Grape-Nuts for about two months l felt like a new boy altogether. I have gained greatly in strength as well as flesh, and it is a pleasure to study now that I am not bothered with my head. I passed all of my examinations with a reason ably good percentage, extra good in some of them. and it is Grape-Nuts that has saved me from years delay in entering college.
 Father and mother have both been improved by the use of Grape-Nuts. Mother was troubled with sleepless nights and got very thin, and looked care worn. She has gained her nor nal strength and looks, and sleeps we'll nights" There's Reason" Read The Road to Wellvilie' in pkgs.

YOUR DEBT TO THE HORSE.

When the writer was given his first team he was told to curry the horses morning and night, IL is surprising what a rubbing down, after a hard days work, will do in keeping team in condition. If you want to keep your team fat, sleek and ready at all times for hard work, here is the reef pc. Let oats be the main grain, water regularly, feed bright timothy or up land hay, curry and brush thoroughly every morning, and at night curry. brush and rub That is all there is to it Use a large piece of flannel for rubbing down the legs. Keep this up regularly and your team will be as sleek as moles and fit for the hard est kind of service.-Stockman and Farmer

BIRDS TRAVEL ALONG ROUTES.
All Have Not Same Range-Swallows'
 Great Distance.

The routes by which birds pass to and from one country to another in spring and autumn are regularly fol- lowed. One great thoroughfa~e. of course is in the spring from south to north and conversely in the autumn from north to south; another is south east to northwest; third southwest to northeast, with the return into the same starting points, says tue Scot man.
 The great southern wintering region Is south of the north of Africa and extends to far beyond the equator, and from it, under the breeding in- stinct in spring, birds hurry away to disperse themselves over the wide spreading palaearctic or northern lands, which extend as far, in the case Of some species, as a long way within the arctic circle. South of the equator during the northern winter the migrants fly toward the south pole to breed. The seasonal range limit of some of the northern breeding birds is enormous-several extending dtd6Ould tO
 All migratory birds have not the same range; some fly longer, some shorter, distances. The best known of all the birds of passage, the swal- low has one of the longest ranges from 1000 to 10000 miles. In this extended range are also included such birds as the gray blower, the knot the peetoral and curlew sandpipers and the Asiatic golden blower.
 The longer range-from 5000 to 1000 miles-includes such well-known birds as the cuckoo, the corncrake, the sedge warbler. the greenshank; the moderate range-from 5000 to 5000 miles-embraces the turtle dove. the crane, lapwing. mallard and jack snipe; the third range-from 1000 to 2,0GG miies-such birds as the wood chat shrike, the stone curlew, the woodcock and black tern and in what Is called the restricted area-with a mileage of 1000 miles downward there are the waxwings, several gulls and the cider duck.
