WHAT A FORMER OREGON
FARMER THINKS OF WEST
ERh CANADA.

Albert Nelson left Benton Co., Ore
gon, in Sept, 1904. for the great
Canadian prairies. To quote from his
letter: I was greatly surprised to
find such an immense stretch of rich
virgin prairie still almost unoccupied
in the very heart of North America
The splendid crops of oats. wheat. bar
ley potatoes and hay l beheld in the
settlements made me very eager for a
piece of this rich soil. and I soon To-
Gated in the Goose Lake country. We
have here great stretch of the rich,

the bright No. 1 hard wheat, and
great crops of oats. barley. fax and po-
tatoes- I had 50 bushels of oats,
weighing AL Id. TO the bushel, per
acre. Some of my neighbors had still
greater Yields. Wheat yielded from 20
to so bushels per acre. We have all
done well here, and l could name
many Americans who came here with
means to go ahead, who have done
big already. For homesteads one has
to go further west. but the best prai-

Grease on Carpets.

An excellent paste for getting grease
from carpets is made by mixing full
ler's earth with a little ammonia. This
mixture should be quite thick and
should be applied with a lavish hand,
Let it remain over night. then brush
off with sim brush. Sometimes it is
necessary to pux on a second supply,
If the eolors of the carpet are delicate
and there is danger of discolorins. the
ammonia may be omitted. Should the
tone of the carpet seem TO be duh
after the grease is out. the color may
be freshened by sweeping with moist
salt.

Wanted Longer Sermons.

1t was a proud boast one clergyman

other night-namely, that he had ac-
tually on one occasion been asked to
make his service, both prayers and
sermon, a bit longer.
His brethren regarded hin with SUI

Unfortunate EXPRESSION

That fruitful source of mirth, the
mixed metaphor, is ever with us. 1t
illustrates on almost every appearance
the truth of the saying that the sub
lime and the ridiculous are but a step
apart.
In a book on the laboring man. con-
tanning some excellent ideas, there
appeared the following sentence:
What manner of woman Is she who
would turn her eyes toward other
things, which would become ashes on
her very lips?"
The flippant answer is, of course. "A
