tie to the Iron Duke.
1t is not always the information car
ried by the recognized a~ide-de-camp to

battle which is Of highest value. There
was a supreme moment during the bat
tie of Waterloo when the Duke of We'll
lington was left absolutely alone-and
that not when he was running the risk
of capture by sailing through the en-
emy's lines. 1t simply meant that ev-
cry galloper had gone his way, each
with his message.
At this moment a stranger rode up to
the duke and quietly asked: Can I
be Of any use. sir?" The duke took
n glance at him and unhesitatingly
answered: "Yes. take this pencil note
to the commanding officer" pointing to
a regiment in the heat Of battle. The
stranger with the note galloped away
with it. through the thick Of the fight.
He delivered it, but what happened to
him no man knows. The duke always
declared that to be m Of the most
gallant deeds that had ever come un-
Ger his notice. It was done without
prospect Of acknowledgment or reward
and neither attended its successful ac-

&bout Sixty Thousand from the

Now that 1t is known that In the

intention of making their homes In

10 search for some reasons that would
orlng this about. These people are bur
following the example Of the hfty-hve
or sixty thousand who did the same
thing the year previous and an almost
equal number who the year before that
but followed the example Of the o
sands of the year preceding. An ex-
cellent climate, certain n positive
crops of grain Of all kinds, good mar
kcts for their produce, land-and good
land, too-at low prices, easy terms OF
payment (not forgetting the 16O acres
of land given free by the government,
particulars of which the Canadian Gov
eminent Agent, whose name appears

then the splendid social conditions. The
situation Is pretty we'll sized up by a
writer in n of the magazines. Quot

Those of US who made good in the

if to continue the story Of his neighbor,
have had it easy from the start; a
little money Is mighty good thing on
coming into a e country. But those
who make an entry, or even buy lands
at low rates, are able to square things
in two or three seasons crops. There
are h%ardships in building shanties and
then, with increasing prosperity, get
ting things into shape for better homes.
But affairs go much as in b States.
We nave the largest liberty In the
world; there Is more home rule in the
provinces than in the several States
of the republic. Taxes are light n
with only a few million people west of
Winnipeg we don't get in each others
way. Ones friends over the line prob
ably thought we would not live through
the winter; and while it is cold. real
cold, it is free from the moisture ex-
perienced in the East. Schools are
good as encouraged by the government;
the enterprising American promoter
and Yankee drummer see to it that we
take notice of the latest improvements
and best agricultural machinery. AL
together we are as near to affairs as
we would be on our " farms in the
States. Winnipeg bears the same rela-
ton to us as Chicago did at home; and
Edmonton with the surrounding region
advances as Omaha did in the days
when we were as young as the boys
yonder. We get together much as they
did in the oranges over the border; the
government has established experiment
tai schools of agriculture, II progress
in every line is stimulated. This is a
great region for grazing We hear the
Calgary citizen continuing, "and then
with building elevators of wheat at 81
Il bushel, many of US find time to go
over to the live stock exhibition in Chi
caco or visit old friends during the
course of the winter. Every man is
taken for what he is worth, or fer what
he can raise; and in this good air and
on this fertile soil we intend to show
our old friends that we are made of the
right stuff-that we are chips OF the
old block who bnilt up the American
Vest"

The influence Of Feed.

Linseed meal has n tendency to make
q soft butter, provided the meal is fed
in large amounts. If fed in only me-
dunn amounts, the butter fats are nor
NAL. 1t is a valuable milk-stimulating
food and car be Used to prevent the
formation of excessively hard fats in
winter. The only disadvantage to the
general use is the price. Half or three
quarters Of a pound of linseed or oil
meal in a ration per day will exert I.
very favorable influence upon the quail
ty of the butter.
Corn meal, when fed In large
amounts with coarse folders, has a
tendency to produce a firm butter.
When mixed with other grains. a bet
ter quality of butter is produced than
if the corn were fed alone. Gluten
meal, a by-product obtained in the
manufacture of corn starch and glu-
cose, produces a softer butter than corn
meal. The gluten, it is to be observed,
contains more of the vital nutrient,
protein.-Professor Harry Snyder, Uni
versity of Minnesota.

We marvel at what we call the wis
dom of the hive bee, yet there is one
thing she v learns from experience,
writes John Burroughs in the Atlantic,
and that is that she is storing up honey
for the use of man. She could not
learn this, because such knowledge is
not necessary to her own well being.
Neither does she ever know when she
has enough to carry her through the
winter. This knowledge, again, is not
important. Gather and store honey as
long as there is n to be had is her
motto, and in that rule she is safe.

The statistician in the Department
OF Agriculture OF the United States es-
imates that in 1881 the population Of
the country will be 13O,OOO,OO0. To sup
ply the requirements of this number OF
people will necessitate h production
of 7OO,OOO,OO bushels Of wheat. 1850
100000 bushels of oats, 3,450,OO0,OOO
bushels Of corn, 0 ,OOO.OOO o Of hay
and cotton. tobacco, fruits and vegeta-
bles in proportion. This will necessi-
tate bringing under cultivation an addi-
tional 150,O0O.000 acres of land, and it
is estimated that we have only 10S,OO0,-
900 acres available for cultivation.

~Transp1anting Trees.

In Revue Universelle, according to
another foreign contemporary, there is
a practical article of general interest
on transplanting plants in full foliage
at night. The results Of some expert
ments by Rouault would make unneces.
sary the customary transplanting of de.
ciduous trees in the fall or winter. He
has found that trees may be trans.
planted in full foliage in May or June
with little Or no injury, providing the
process is carried on at night. This
has been demonstrated to the entire
satisfaction of some of the most prom.
inent horticulturists of France.

Spraying Fruit Trees.

All fruit trees should be sprayed
while dormant, with lime, sulphur and
salt, as a preventive of San Jose scale,
to destroy the fungi. 1t is also claim
ed that this preparation is a good fer

To Prevent Runayvays.

An iron weight with a strap attached
to it should always be carried in the
farm wagon. The moment the horse
is stopped and the driver is to leave
the team, the weight should be dropped
to the ground and the strap fastened to
the horse. This will make 1t safer
than to allow the team to stand un-

People have learned by experience to

Prof. Schuster thinks that the allow
ances should be officially stated. As
%tronomers, it appears, are in the habit
of giving the value of the probable
error when publishing their observa-
tons. But. although m~eteorology lends
itself more readily than any other
science to the evolution of deviations
from the mean result, the weather fore
casters have not adopted the custom
of stating the probable error. Prof.
Schuster looks forward to the time
when weather forecasts will be accom-
