GLAD TO HAVE HIM GO.
TolI-Gate Keeper Thought He Had
Visit from His Satanic Majesty.

This is not the only age in which
motor cars have created excitement
and disturbance In 1SC2 such appari-
tons were few and far between; at
present they are too frequent TO at
tract attention. Mr.. Joseph Hatton, in
"Old Lamps and New" tells of the
fright caused by one of Trevithick's
steam locomotives, made to run on
unrailed roads in the early part of the
last century.
Now and then one of these extraor-
binary vehicles would be encountered,
snorting and putting on the highway.
The countrymen regarded them as the
evil one in disguise.
One of the cars, coming to toll
gate, stopped for the gate to be
opened. The toll-man came hurrying
out. He flung the gate open with
trembling hands, and teeth which
chartered audibly.
The driver asked him how much toll
there was to pay.
20, nothing, dear Mr.. Satan, moth
ing" hastily assured the man. 60
on as fast as you like; there's nothing
to pay"-Youth's Companion.

WESTERN CANADA CROPS
CANNOT Be CHECKED.
OATS YIELDED 90 BUSHELS TO
THE ACRE.

The following letter written the Do
minion Government Commissioner OF
Emigration speaks for itself 1t proves
the story of the Agents of the Gov
eminent that on the free homesteads
offered by the Government it is pos
sible to become comfortably well off
in few years:
Regina, Sask., 23rd Nov, 1907.
Commissioner Of immigration,
Winnipeg.
Dear Sir:
1t is with pleasure that l reply to
your request. Some years ago | took
up a 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 40 acres of
wheat in stubble which went 20 BUSH
els to the acre, and 80 acres of sum-
mer fallow, which went % bushels to
the acre. All the wheat We harvested
this year is No. hard That means
the best wheat that can be raised on
theearth. We did not sell any wheat yet
as we intend to keep one part for
our own seed, and sell the other part
to people who want first-class seed,
for there is no doubt if you SOW good
wheat you will harvest good wheat.
We also threshed 5000 bushels of
first-class oats out Of 100 acres. 80
acres has been fall blowing which
yielded 80 bushels per acre, and 80
acres stubble, which went 80 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 will
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.

DO YOU KNOW
WHAT WHITE LEAD Is?
Its Chief Use and a Method Of Deter.
mining Good from Bad Explained.

White Lead is the standard paint
material all over the world. 1t is made
by corroding metallic lead into a white
powder, through exposing it to the
fumes of weak acetic acid and carbonic
acid gas; this powder is then ground
and mixed with linseed oil, making a
thick paste, in which form it is packed
and sold for painting purposes. The
painter thins it down to the proper
consistency for application by the adj
dition of more linseed OIL
The above refers, of course, to pure,
genuine White Lead only. Adulterated
and fake White Lead of which there
are many brands on the market, Is
generally some sort OF composition
containing only a percentage of white
lead; sometimes no White Lead at all;
in such stuff, barytes or ground rock,
chalk, and similar cheap substances
are used to make bulk and initiate the
appearance of pure White Lead.
There is, however, positive test by
which the purity or impurity of White
Lead may be proved or exposed be-
fore painting with it.
The blowpipe flame will reduce
pure white lead to metallic lead. II
a supposed white lead be thus tested
and IT only partially reduces to lead,
leaving a residue, it is proof that
something else was there besides
white lead
The National Lead Company guar
antee all White Lead sold in packages
bearing its Dutch Boy Painter" trade
mark to prove absolutely pure under
this blowpipe test, and that you may
make the test yourself in your own
home, they will send free upon re-
quest blowpipe and everything else
necessary to make the test, together
with valuable booklet on paint Adj

About Reading the Papers.

The editor of this department has
for many years advocated the wider
reading Of the agricultural papers by
the farmers. and also the contribu.
ton to these papers more of their
personal experiences. The following
letter from E. c. Miller. Flora, Miss,
taken from the Southern Farm Ga.
zette. Starkville, Miss is an example
of what farm papers may do for man
who has some sense to start with:
Messrs. Editors: While | have been
a farmer now about seventeen years.
| was raised in a city and did not
know what a furrow was. | do not
want to fatter myself; but | know
more about farming than some people
who have been at it all their lives.
and | got ii all by taking farm papers
and magazines | raised a bale of
cotton on a half acre of red clay hill
land that used to be a sweet potato
patch and it would not make any
potatoes. | have raised two bales oil
cotton to the acre, and hope to run 1t
IN to three next time. | have raised
over 200 bushels of Irish potatoes to
the acre Peoples cattle were dying
here with the scours from eating froz-
en- cotton. Mine were sick. | asked all
around what was good for the trouble.
Nobody knew. saw in farm paper
that carbonate OF iron was good
remedy. | gave them a tablespoonful
three times day and cured them In
a few days, saving myself more dol
lars than all my papers come TO.
never use any commercial ferti'
lizer. | use barnyard and henhouse
manure and muck from the swamp;
take my scraper and dig all the mud
from the bitches in the pasture and
haul it on the land. The bitches VIII
hold water better and cattle like 1t
better than pond water. | also plant
plenty OF peas. | do not care what
ANYBODY says-nothing beats peas.

a FINE INVESTMENT FOR A
SMALL AMOUNT.

Inc Dallas News, after speaking Of
the things that have been done by
some towns to draw trade and show
appreciation of the farmers patron.
age, adds:
There is one thing, however. thai
seems to have been overlooked to =
great extent by the enterprising citi-
Ems or the places which have been
looking after such matters, and the
only reason The News can assign for
the oversight is the apparent insignif.
canoe OF the thing, and the fact that
the cost or maintaining it would be
so small. This Is the provision for
the care of the farmers vehicles and
stock during his stay in town. While
thls item may appear upon first
thought to be Of secondary import,
ance, 1t Is nevertheless a very impor-
tant one to the man who drives his
team to town, and particularly to the
one who has to remain over all day
as is sometimes the case. 1t is found
that in many places there are not
even enough hitch racks where horses
may be tied, not taking into account
the fact that they should be protected
from the weather also. 1t is a regret
able fact that too many men, some.
tlmeS owners of the stock do not take
the care of their animals they should,
not only as to looking after the money
involved in the purchase of the stock,
but rs matter of kindness and mercy
to the dumb beasts.
Facilities for the proper care of the
formers horses and mules would an.
peal to him and he would appreciate it
in a substantial way. These facilities
should consist of good shelter. good
water and plenty of shade and hitch
racks. In many places horses may be
seen in winter during the worst wealth
er standing all day in the cold and
rain, tied to a fence post, with abso-
lutely no protection, and in summer
they are found in the same way, ex-
ccpt that at that time they are forced
to stand in the blstering sun, without
any shade and probably without any
thing to eat or water to drink. It
costs very little to prepare such facil
tiles as here suggested and it is quite
certain that the money invested on
them by any city or town will be
found to be a splendid investment on
the part of the mon making it.
