Kew ARRIVALS IN CANADA
NEARLY 300, 900 IN 1867.
ABOUT SIXTY THOUSAND FROM
THE UNITED STATES.

NOW IudI IL lb huOWu IHdI III Luo
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
ffty-fve 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, mot 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 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 10
the world; there is more home rule In
the Provinces than in the several
states of the Republic. Taxes are
light and with only a 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 Government; the enterprising
American promoter and Yankee drum
mer 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 on
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 isa
great region for grazing" we hear the
Calgary citizen continuing, "and then
with building elevators of wheat at
enc dollar 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
wortk 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"

Reading, writing and spelling-we
say it regretfully-are no longer thor
oughly taught in some of the schools
of the land Young men and women
who seek instruction in telegraphy,
stenography and typewriting, although
of good ability and general informa-

sometimes one-half of even two-thirds

Poultry Points.
---
Texas Farmer.

AS soon as chicks begin to eat well
forcing can be reasonably commenced.
1t is the shape that makes the
breed, the color determines how good
they are and the variety.
Taking everything into considera-
ton, the duck is one of the most prof
liable birds that can be raised.
Laying hens should not be fed on
ions or other strongly scented diet
1t will make the eggs taste and smell.
Some men are supposed to be wise
when really they can't think of any,
thing to say, and if they do they can't
say it.
In setting and Matching it is not al
ways how many, but how good. A
good start with good stock is half the
battle.
Little things make a big difference
in the comfort of the hens-grit, dust,
feed, sunshine, water and a good place
to scratch and lay.
Those who succeed best are those
who study continuously their under
takings and do not allow discourage
ments to slacken their efforts.
A hen can have too many chicks
She can not hover them and they
crowd each other to death, or they
will become droopy and lose their
appetite. If they do not eat they will
not grow.
When Matching ducks or geese un-
der hens they should be taken away
as soon as dry, as they are so large
and strong the hen becomes restless
and often steps on them.
The Importance of exercise is not
as highly regarded by some as it
should be. 1t can be overdone, as
when the hen drags her brood through
the wet grass or over large stretches
of fields for the bug she can not find.
The first six weeks has more to do
with the little chick than the next
six months. If neglected or misled,
or if they get mitey, or too cold or
too hot, or too crowded, they will not
make first-class birds. They are more
tender than twins.
With the hens marked and trap
nests it is easy to determine which
ones are doing the work Some pull
lets will be year and half old be-
fore they lay. They will probably
never amount to much and better go
to market.
To breed good pullets is regarded
as the height of chicken breeding.
Fanciers say that they must have all
the points of a cockerel and some
thing more.
Many can testify that you can go
to lot of expense for yards, poultry
and feed and have the poorest kind
of results. This is mismanagement.
Another who understands the business
can take the same basis and make it
pay.
In the estimation of many there is
nothing in the chicken family that will
compare in beauty with a well-bred
"barrad plymouth rock. Clean, alert,
vt compactly built; soft blue
pgy Earrings all over make
the fancier's art.

We will never be able to control
prices on anything so long as we have
to sell at the other mans price and
buy at his price, too. The way out is
to raise everything we use at home
as nearly as we can and keep out Of
debt for what we must buy by ex-
changing something else for what we
may want.

People specializing upon a cotton
