Indians Good Farmers.

The Indians of the great Canadian
prairie province of Saskatchewan are
disproving the theory that an Indian
won't work Unless he has to. They
are becoming industrious and prosper
Gus.
There are nearly 5000 Indians in the
province and last year they had about
5000 acres under crops. They raised
150,572 bushels of grain and roots and
$4,000 tons of hay, worth $136.023.
The department of Indian affairs re-
ports that the Indians are turning more
and more to the soil for living. The
agent of the Assiniboine agency, which
may be regarded as typical, writes:
Il was greatly pleased to find that
the area under crop was almost dou-
bic what it was the year before. The
band had about 600 acres of wheat and
200 acres of oats. The Indians of this
agency are beginning 70 farm on a
large scale, and if they continue to do
as well as they have in the last two
years there win be some good-siZed
farmers among them. One man had
100 acres in crop and another 125
acres and several had seventy acres
each There was a decided improve
ment in the way the land had been
farmed."

There is no other one thing which
enaD'es US to make so good an impress
sion. especially upon those who do not
know us thoroughly, as the ability to
converse well. A man who can talk
well, who has the art of putting things
in an attractive way, who can interest
others Immediately by his power OF
speech, has very great advantage
over one who may know more than
he. but who can not express himself
with ease or eloquence.
You may be good singer, fine ar
fist, you may have great many &C
complishments which people occasion
ally see or enjoy; you may have very
beautiful home and lot of property
which comparatively few people ever
know about; bat if you are a good con
verser, every one you meet recognizes
and apprecis tes your art Everybody
you converse with feels the influence
of your skill and charm.
In other words, there is no accom-
plishmeRt, no attainment, which you
can use so constantly and effectively
which will give so much pleasure te
your friends as fine conversation
There is no doubt that the gift of Ian
guage was intended to be a much
greater accomplishment than the ma
jority of us have ever made of it.

BILLIONS OF GOLD GONE.
Figures Show That Some One Has

Somebody is making away with the
gold supply OF the world. Since the
discovery of the American continent
and the beginning of its gold produc-
ton $4,000, 100000 in gold has disap-
peared from the available supply. This
leaves the present supply of this pre-
cious metal at $11 900. goo, 900. and.
while the United States is in no dan
ger of gold famine, the government
would like to know who has made on
with nearly one-sixth of the worlds
supply.
Considerably more than two-thirds
of the worlds supply is already stamp
ed into coins. About $4,000, 000, 900 is
in circulation and $4,000, 100000 held
in banks and public treasures. The
United States has the greatest gold
supply, the Amount reaching $1.61S.-
100000 Germany has S1.044 600, 900,
France 1920, 100000, Russia 1917, 000,-
600. United Kingdom 1896 ,00S, 900. ia
pan sci 100000 and Canada $685.
600 900.
The gold output in recent years has
increased rapidly. During the ten
years ending with 1908 it aggregated
$3,400.000,000. This was a big jump
over the preceding years, when the
output reached only $4,000, ,000 The
production in the United States in ten
years has aggregated between $S.000.-
100000 and 100000 or about
one-fourth of the entire porduct of the

Sea FIeas.

The deep-sea naturalist, when pre-
pairing tie skeletons of small birds and
fishes for mounting, calls the sea fieas
to his aid. These active little crusta-
ceans- swan on the bottom of the sea,
in both tropical and temperate waters,
and are possessed of voracious appe-
tites. So the naturalist, after remov-
ing the skin and loose flesh from the
specimen, ties it in a coarse net and
lowers it into the sea until 1t hangs
just clear of the bottom 1t is imme-
diately discovered by the sea fieas, and
countless myriads of the little crea-
lures come swarming to the work of
denuding the bones. In a short time
the skeleton is clean and ready to be
packed or mounted. Care must be
taken to haul 1t up at Just the right
moment, as If left too long to the sea
fieas they will attack and devour the
small bones as soon as they have fin
ished the soft parts. A little watchful.
ness on tie part of the naturalist will
present this, however, and the tiny
scavengers of the deep will save him
a lot of unpleasant work
