IMMIGRATION FROM SOUTH Elk
PECTED.

Splendid Opportunities offered
b. Western Canada

Splendid Opportunities offered
by Western Canada
st. Paul, Mimi, February.-PreSent
indications are that the Canadian
Northwest will draw In exceptionally
heavy movement of new settlers from
the United States this year. 1t should
surpass the banner record for 1907.
This is not only based on the fact
that the Americans have come to re-
alize generally that the Canadian
Northwest offers splendid opportuni-
ties, but also because the railroads have
awakened to the fact and are offering
rates to the Canadian Northwest which
are exceptionally favorable.
The lines which lead to st. Paul
from the east and south are offer
ing homeseekers' rates TO the Cana
dian Northwest this year which are
on a parity with those in existence to
the southwest for a couple of seasons.
These rates can be obtained from
any agent of the Canadian Govern
ment, who will be pleased TO give all
information possible regarding those
districts which offer the greatest in
ducements 10 settlers. The weather
throughout Western Canada has been
remarkably good this year. A tele-
gram from the winter wheat belt OF
Southern Alberta dated at Cardston,
Alberta, January 10Th, says:
This winter up to January 10Th,
was nothing short Of a marvel, in fact,
ii was the finest anyone can remem-
Der for twenty-five years, though there
have been others nearly as good. The
days were fine, sunny and warm with
light frosts at night. OvercOats and
gloves, etc. were discarded by most
people in the day time. There was so
little frost in the ground that post
holes could be dug without any trou'
Bile after the first inch was broken
through. Winter wheat remained
fresh and green although there has
been no snow since the September
storm. If there is an early spring.
winter wheat should gain "a great
start"
Amongst the reports Of the yield
last year the following extracts are
taken
III. Howe. Of Magrath, Alta, writing
on November. 1907, says: II have 40
acres in crop, so acres of wheat and
: acres of oats. My average yield OF
oats was 81 bushels to the acre, and OF
wheat - bushels. Tie value TO me
was $35 per acre"
j. K. Haycock, of Magrath, writes
In November: Il had 65 acres i'm win
ter wheat which went 60 bushels to the
acre oats averaged so bushels. l also
had II tons of hay worth $40 per ton.
/ got 600 bushels OF potatoes from 3
acres OF land; ! got 8 tons per acre
from 3 acres Of sugar peets."
J. +. Bradshaw, OF Magrath, had
1000 acres Of winter wheat last year
which averaged 1914 bushels to the
acre. The value OF his farm products
per acre was: Wheat, $31. GO; oats,
SLIGO. and barley, $25.15.

huge tureen Of piping hot milk toast-a
delicious dish made of well-browned,
crisped bread, over which was poured a
creamy mixture Of boiled sweet milk, sea-
soned with a dash of nutmeg and a taste
of sugar.

Tariff Hearing
Allied Printing Trades Unions
Say High Prices
Hurt Labor

Washington, D. c., Nov. 21:-Severe
arraignment of the so-called paper
trust" was a factor of todays tariff
hearing by the house committee on
ways and means which was In session
until nearly midnight.
After hearing arguments, mainly for
protective tariff was hear the
testimony of John Norris, represent
ing the American Newspaper associa-
tion. VI. 50, -a, ~.
Norris argued for free trade in
pulp and printing paper, giving many
figures to show that the protection
afforded the paper manufacturers by
the present tariff resulted in an un-
reasonable price for paper. .-,=
Representatives of the typographical,
photo-engravers, pressmen and stero-
typers, and electrotyper's unions sup
ported Norris contentious with an
additional argument that the increas-
ed cost OF paper redueed the size of
newspapers, gave less work and low.
er wages than they would otherwise
be able to get.

Goal from field, kicked by Victor P:

planted on the fifteen-yard line, was
the winning score, just as the first

The game was a battle Of football

STORY Of FIERCE GRID|RON BATTLES

20 2-3 yards. From the start of the
game to the end there was over eag-
erness among the players to be in the
fight, and this made many penalties.
Harvard, losing 120 yards on IL pen
alties, and Yale 56 yards on six pen
ialties.
Some of the ground gaining was
by running back of kicks, Harvard
netting 81 yards this way, including
Is on kicks of the sixty yards, and in
Guiding 35 after one kick off. Harvard
had 81 in the first downs and Yale
only 8.
Neither team tried many of the re-
sourceful plays since the revised rules
have been brought out. Forward pas
ses, one by Harvard, all failed, and
of on-side kickc Yale gained % yards
on one and failed on two others, and
Harvard failed on none of hers.
Twice from the Harvard 40-yard
line was tried what was intended to
be drop kicks for goals and neither
twas we'll directed.
The victory of Harvard was un
doubtedly due to the quick judgment
of the Harvord coaches in sending ir
Kennard to try for a goal, though
Verwiebe, whom he succeeded, hat
been playing finely. The change il
| lineup was instantly made for plays
| were being reeled off when came the
lineup on Yale's 12-yard line. In an
other second Kennard at fullback, re
J ceived the ball and applying his tos
to it, goal was made amid wild cheer!
on Harvard's side of the field.
The teams who took fields, were a!
follows: s.*.....
