The following letter written the Do

Regina, sask.. 2Srd Nov, 1907.
Commissioner of Immigration,
Winnipeg.
Dear Sir:
1t is with pleasure that I reply to
your request. Some years ago / took
up homestead for myself and also
one for my son. The half section
which we own is situated between
Rouleau and Drinkwater adjoining
the Moose Jaw creek, is a low level
and heavy land. We put in 10 acres Of
wheat in stubble, which went 20 bush.
els to the acre, and 30 acres OF sum
mer fallow, which went rs bushels to
the acre. All the wheat we harvested
this year Is No. l hard. That means
the best wheat that can be raised on
theearth. Wedidnot sell any wheat yet
as we intend to keep one part for
our own seed, and sell the other part
to people who want firstclass seed,
for there Is no doubt if you SOW good
wheat you win harvest good wheat.
We also threshed 5000 bushels OF
first-class oats out Of 100 acres. so
acres has been fall plowing which
yielded 80 bushels per acre, and 80
acres stubble, which went 30 bushels
to the acre. These oats are
the best kind that can be
raised. We have shipped three car
loads Of them, and got SO cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
In the last week Of the month Of
August before any frost could touch
It.
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had late spring, and that the
weather conditions this year were
very adverse and unfavorable, we viii
make more money out Of our crop
this year than last.
For myself I feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked, even by unusual conditions.
/ am, dear sir,
Yours truly,
(Signed) A. Kaltenbrunner.

As Dirty as Possible.

Hundreds Of young women are being
trained all over the country for charity
workers. Philanthropy is now recog-
nized as a profession, for which ono
needs a special education as truly as
for teaching. One Of the first lessons
a warm-hearted woman needs in deai.
ing with poverty is to distinguish dirt
from misery. To one accustomed to
clean surroundings, the filth IN which
many poor people live seems intolera-
bic. It would entail absolute wretched-
ness on the visitor But, in point OF
fact the families who live embedded
in dirt usually do so because it does
not offend them. The poor woman
whose senseE are tortured by bad
odors and foul sights manages that her
rooms shall be clean, no matter how
bare they may be, or how empty her
cupboard and coal-bin. The friendly
visitor who thinks that tldlness is a
sure sign Of comfort and dirty disorder
an equally sure sign Of extreme want
will make serious mistakes in her dis
pensing Of gifts. Said a poor woman
to sympathetic and experienced Wis
itor, Thank YOU miss, for praising
my clean room and giving me the coal
order in the same breath. You aren't
like most Of the rich folks, who think
II you're too dirty to touch with ten
foot pole you must be poor, and
there's no end to what they'll give
you; but if you're clean and decent
no matter what It costs you-you're
lucky people, who want nothing from
anybody" Intelligent philanthropy
looks below the surface, says the
Youths Companion. and discovers that
real suffering may have clean face
and real comfort dirty one. The
helpful friend is sympathetic without
being sentimental, and knows how to
seek out the pain which hides itself.
and how to Ignore the plea Of those
who try to appear as dirty and misera.

Other testimony from reliable

Wall srteet is dominated by two or
three men, and when the sword is
passed down the line,'' everybody
acts accordingly.
For at least six weeks Wall street
has been the greatest force behind
the Taft campaign-even more potent
than the machine OF federal Office
holders. The men of "high finance
went to work quietly to exercise their
influence out over the country.

who are housed in lower Broadway

of this trust was skeptical about
some things. and did not join the
movement until after he had made a
trip to Washington.
The first ample proof that the
Standard Oil company (which Presi.
dent Roosevelt Is now trying to dis
solve) was out OF the Sstreet's'
candidate was the open advocacy OF
Taft's nomination by Senator Nelson
W. Aldrich, of Rhode Island. Senator
Aldrich's daughter married the son
Of John d. Rockefeller. / find that
the understanding In Wall street
circles is that Senator Aldrich Is

mony to be obtained by having all
the candidates except Taft withdraw.
While the little fellows in Wall
street have beeu calling for Taft ever
since the decision to support him was
reached, the ''powers behind the
throne" remained silent until they
were reasonably certain that every.
thing was all right.
Here are two news items from a
New York evening newspaper which,
to persons informed on moneyed New
York, tell pretty nearly the whole
story:
"Jacob II. Schiff, head OF Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., today came out strongly
for Secretary Taft for president. lie
