Moose Jaw, Sask., Nov. 18th 1907.
Writing from Moose Jaw, Saskatchel
wan, Mr.. s. K. Rathwall> says:
.'I have much pleasure In saying
that son 1dj yzziarnn-tt year had. 500
acres In wheat, / and 5l20 acres in oats.
My wheat averaged about % bushels
per acre, and / had 200 acres cut be.
fore; the: frost, which I sold at IS
cents per. bushel, thus realizing on
that wheat $500 per acre, not count
ing cost of Irvine, seed and labor. With
regard to the other 800 acres of wheat,
it got touched with frost but is worth
so cents per- bushel.; It will net me
$500 per acre. but I do not intend
to sell It at that price, as I can make
more money by feeding it to hogs.
MY oats turned out about so bushels
to the acre, and at IS cents per bushel
will give me $500 to the acre, not
counting seed, twine and labor.
''On account Of the late spring, 4
percentage Of the grain was touched
with frost, but on account Of good
prices, farmers will realize a fair
profit on their farms even this year.
We are as usual up against short.
age of cars to get our grain removed"

But on Palm Sunday the attention
is fixed on the altar in the Cappella

people increases cruelty as the bas-

altar stairs and the canons slowly
move to their places. The priests are

crucifix on the altar is also violet

the deep notes of the chanting swell
with strange solemnity through the
echoing vaults.
At last the solemn final word and
gesture of blessing have been given,
and one by one the priests lift and
bear away the palm branches. Then

Inexhaustible in its mystic signifi-
canoe, the Holy Week in Rome, how
ever familiar to the memory or inl-
agination, stirs always a renewed
wonder in those who witness it.
Above all else Rome is a city Of
memories. The walls and arches of
imperial days, the Renaissance pal
aces, and the churches which mark
every step in the long march from
primitive Christianity to papal SUI
Dremacy-these stamp themselves on
the mind. The incongruous modern
elements are as transitory in their
impression as is the whirling dust
from a motor car blown past the
tombs on the Appian Way.
The walls Of Aurelian, the statue of
Marcus Aurelius, benignant on the
capitol, the august disarray of the
Forum-these are actual and imperish-
able. So, too, is the spacious splen-
dor Of St. Peters, with its solemn
sequence Of ritual in which, as the
Holy Week advances, so mystic and
superb a drama of divinity is en-.
acted.
There are many moods in which
to approach the great Easter services
In the great papal city. from that of
the devote to whom the ever.burning
lamps round the apostles tomb mark
spot only less sacred than that of
the holy sepulcher itself, to that of
the casual sightseer, who f1utters his
Baedeker unabashed through the aw-
full mystery of the mass. Perhaps
those do not see least of the signif1-
canoe who look on the magnificent
ceremonies with haunting conscious
ness of ROme's twofold greatness, and
who never quite lose sight of the city
of the Caesars in the city of the
saints.
It is impossible even to approach
st. Peters, where most of us choose
to see the services; in spite of the ri.
val claims of the hateran, mother Of
churches-it is impossible to reach
the curving colonnades and mighty
front without passing by memorials of
an earlier, hostile life and creed. Per.
haps in driving thither the wanderer
may catch glimpse of the immortal
pair. the Great Twin Brethren, who
guard in stone the stairs to the CAPT
toll. Or, it may be. the shattered, ma
jestic columns of the temple of Mars
UltOr have lifted for a moment their
stern memorial of Caesars death and
Augustus vengeance.
Once within st. Peters, however.
conflicting memories fall away. lost,
as is all sense of minor faults in the
building itself, in the impression of
vastness, of az all-enfolding and ali.
reconciling hospitality. That hospital
ity is taxed by the crowds which
gather for the services of Holy Week.
Palm Sunday initiates the series of
elaborate ceremonies, with its beauti-
full rite Of blessing the palms. A mot
ley throng It Is which streams up the
wide steps and gathers about the altar
above which glows in q golden halo
the holy dove. There are the foreign
sight-seers. Of course, made evident
by their camp-stools and red guide

HOW TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when
painting buildings or implements
which are exposed to the weather, to
have the paint applied properly. No
excellence Of material can make up
for carelessness of application, any
more than care in applying it can
make poor paint wear well.
The surface to be painted should be
dry and scraped and sandpapered
hard and smooth. Pure white lead
should be mixed with pure linseed oil,
fresh for the job, and should be well
brushed out, not flowed on thick.
When painting is done in this manner
with National Lead Company's pure
white lead Grade marked with THE
Dutch boy Painter") there is every
chance that the job will be satisfac-
tory. White lead is capable of alb
solute test for purity. National Lead
Company, Woodbridge Building, New
York, will send testing outfit free to
any one interested.

Custom Not Christian Alone.

The giving of eggs at Easter is de-.
rived from the old nature worship, and
Is not, confined to the Christian ma
tfons. The Parsees of Persia and In.
dia distribute eggs at the opening of
spring, and in many other nations the
giving OF eggs at the commence ment
of spring is as common as New Years
gifts with us. In Hungary the boys
sprinkle the girls with rose water and
receive eggs in return.
