Old Order Bars Typewriter.

Discovery has been made of war
department order, still in effect, which
was issued in 1883, before typewriters
came into general use. 1t directed
that the typewriter may not be EN-
,ployed in writing out sentences OF gen
eral courts martial. Since that time
the typewriter has come into such
general use that those who have occa-
SIGN to compile the records of courts
martial have overlooked the old order
Steps have been taken to revoke the
order and to substitute therefor a cir
cular authorizing the use Of the type
writer in writing out the findings and
sentences, provided that the judges
advocate GRITTY that the typewriter
findings aad sentences were correct.

Nervousness.

Nervousness is often due to some
POISON formed in the blood by the de-
composition of undigested food-in
other woris, often arises primarily
from indigestion.
Nervousness when due to this
cause may sometimes continue
through many years without causing
dangerous conditions. On the other
hand nervous disturbances due to this
auto intoxication or self-poisoning may
be INN ediate,y fatal
Many people. however, suffer from
nervous indigestion" as they call It,
fo~ twenty years or more without IA
tai termination. In these cases there
is of course a gradual weakening of
the system which predisposes to many
diseases. and death is always prema-
ture. usually being tracable to what
is called heart failure"

Mr.. M. J. Deutsch, Secretary Building

Il have found your medicine to be
unusually efficacious in getting rid of

new ARRIVALS IN CANADA
NEARLY 800 600 IN 1907.
ABOUT SIXTY THOUSAND FROM
THE UNITED STATES.

Now that it is known that in the
year just closed nearly sixty thou
sand from the United States declared
their intention of making their homes
in Canada, it might not be out of
place to search for some reasons that
would bring this about These people
are but following the example of the
fifty-five 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 thousands of the year proceed
ing An excellent climate, certain and
positive crops of grain of all kinds,
good markets for their produce, land
and good land, too at low prices,
easy terms of payment, (not forget
ting the 100 acres of land given free
by the Government, particulars of
which the Canadian Government Agent
whose name appears elsewhere will
tell you about and then the splendid
social conditions. The situation is
pretty well sized up by writer in one
of the magazines. Quoting from this
article, we find this: ''Those of US
who made good in the States, inter
jected another settler as if to con.
tinue the story of his neighbor, have
had it easy from the start; little
money is a mighty good thing on COM
ing into a new 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 hardships in building shanties,
and then with increasing prosperity
getting things into shape for better
homes. But affairs go much as in the
States We have the largest liberty ia
the world; there is more home rule III
the Provinces than in the several
states of the Republic. Taxes are
light and with only few million peo-
pie west of Winnipeg we don't get in
each others way. Ones friends over
the line probably thought we would not
live through the winter; and while it
is cold, real cold, it is free from the
moisture experienced in the east.
Schools are good as encouraged by
the the
American promoter and Yankee drum
n1er see to it that we take notice Of
the latest improvements and best agri-
cultural machinery. Altogether we are
as near to affairs as we would be en-
our own farms in the States. Winni-
peg bears the same relation 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 gov
eminent has established experimental
schools Of agriculture, and progress in
every line is stimulated. This is a
great region for grazing" we hear the
Calgary citizen continuing, land then
with building elevators Of wheat at
enc dollar a bushel, many of us find
time to go over to the live stock ex-
hibitiOn in Chicago Or visit old friends
during the course Of the winter.
Every man is taken for what he is
worth or for 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 built up the American West"

SEED MUST BE GOOD.

Editor Herald: The law of this
state regulating the sale of agricul
tural seeds includes all the varieties
of grass seeds, forage plants and the
cereals.
II prohibits the sale of agricultural
seeds if any seeds of the following
weeds are present. namely: wilu mus
tard of charlock. quack grass, Canada
thistle, wild oats. clover and alfalfa
dodder, field dodder, or corn cookie.
The only exception to this prohibit
ton is the sale Of seed for export out
side the state, and sales by the grow
er upon his own premises for seed,
ing by the purchaser.
Other weed seed, sand, chaff, dirt
or broken seeds or seeds not capable
of terminating are classed as impuri-
ties, and when present in an aggregate
of more than two percent, the seeds
may be legally sold only when tagged
or labelled TO show the percentage OF
each impurity present.
There are special provisions of the
statute defining, adulteration of blue
grass, orchard grass, red clover. and
rape seeds; also prohibiting the sale
of seeds not true to name.
Standards of purity and germinabil-
ity are established and penalty fixed
for sale of seeds not conforming TO
the standard. Such seeds may be
sold if labelled to show percentage OF
purity and germinability
The statute requires the Food and
Dairy Commissioner to cause to De
analysed any sample of agricultural
seed submitted to him. A fee of fifty
cents for each sample is fixed. A
competent man has been secured for
this work and returns can be promptly
made.
The Importance of sale and use OF
good seed. free from weeds is so great
that dealers and purchasers can well
afford to use every effort to keep and
use only that which conforms to the
law Growers OF seed should take
notice that this law will be enforced
and that clean, pure seed will be at
"a premium.

TARIFF REVISION IN 1909.

Speaker Cannon and Representative
Payne. chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, are opposed to the
creation of a commission to study the
tariff schedules. and outline changes
which it would recommend Congress
TO make. Chairman Payne, however,
at the suggestion of the speaker, says
that there will lie a revision OF the
tariff soon. Mr. Payne's words are:
Il think the signs of the times are
that next winter this Congress will
undertake a revision of the tariff"
These were his words in answer to
the delegation of Western manufacture
ers. all of whom were protectionists,
who want Congress to pass a tariff
commission bill this session, and favor.
the bill which has been introduced in
the Senate by Mr.. Beveridge.
Speaker Cannon and Chairman
Payne have already been quoted in
favor of tariff revision by an extra
session of Congress, to be called by
the republican president just after his
Inauguration on March 4, 1909. That
is probably what Mr.. Payne meant
ers two days ago that the tariff would
be dealt with next winter. Next win
ters session of Congress is the snort
session. 1t will last only three
months. In the short sessions of
Congress there is seldom any legisla-
ton that calls for long debate and de-
liberate consideration. The fourteen
regular money bills of the govern
ment, in addition to the routine work
which comes up every year, are usual
ly enough 10 occupy the time of Con-
gress during the three months at the
end OF its career A tariff revision
bill could not be dealt with in that
short time. in addition to Congress

ginning of the term OF the new presi-
