OEPEW ARGUES
FOR SUBSIDY
Says the Farmer and Small Mer-

Lewis NJ. Nixon, the shipbuider.
spoke for half an hour before the New
York Chamber of Commerce recently in
favor of the adoption of the substitute
to the report of the special committee,
which he introduced two weeks ago,
says the Christian Science Monitor:
Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew address
ed the gathering of representative
tinanciers, merchants and manufacture
crs and business men generally in favor
of the report.
The Nixon substitute approves the
general provisions of the Senate bill
passed March 20, 1905, providing for
an ocean mail service between the
United States and South America, the
Philippines, Japan, China and Australia,
but proposes the enactment of law
permitting the regulation of American
| commerce by discriminating tonnage
taxes and duties, and that treaties and
conventions inconsistent with such reg
| ulation shall be abrogated.
In view of the introduction of the
substitute, the chamber, after listening
to Senator Depew S answer to the Nixon
| argument, postponed further considera-
| tion of the subject until the December
| meeting.
"We have come to the point said
Senator Depew, ''where public senti-
ment has been sufficient to permit the
passage by the senate of a modified
form of subsidy.

SOUNDS like A FAIRY TALE
THE FARMERS OF CENTRAL CAN.
ADA REAP WHEAT AND
RICHES.

Up in the Provinces of Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and Alberta, the prov.
inces that compose Central Canada
have such a quantity of land suitable
for the growth of small grains, which
grow SO abundantly, and yield so hand
somely that no fear need be feared
of wheat famine on this Continent
The story reproduced below is only
one of the hundreds of proofs that
could be produced to show the results
that may be obtained from cultiva-
ton of the lands in these provinces.
Almost any section of the country will
do as well.
With the country recently opened by
the Grand Trunk Pacific, the latest of
the great transcontinental lines to en-
ter the field of the development of the
Canadian West, there is afforded added
ample opportunity to do as was done
in the case cited below:
To buy a section of land, break it
up and crop it, make $17,550 out OF
the yield and $10,SS0 out of the increase
of value all within the short period
of two years, was the record estab-
lished by James Bailey, well known
farmer within a few miles Of Regina.
Mr.. Bailey bought the $40 acres Of
land near Grand Coulee two years ago.
He Immediately prepared the whole
section for crop and this year has 600
acres of wheat and 40 acres of oats.
The wheat yielded 1885 bushels, and
the oats yielded 1850 bushels. The
whole of the grain has been market
ed and Mr.. Bailey is now worth $17,550
from the grain alone. He bought the
land at $1S an acre, and the other
day refused an offer of $35 an acre,

purchase. The land cost $11,320 in
the first instance. Here are the fig

Attacks Dog with Hot Iron.

arm, hurled him from side to side, at
times dashing his body against the
walls. Antoinette ran downstairs and
shrieked for help.
Neighbors ran to the rescue. A
man rushed into the room with a
heavy crowbar, and dealt the animal
a crashing blow across the head Then
a woman appeared with red hot iron
and laid it heavily across the dogs
nose. With howl he loosened his
jaws. The man caught the child, and
all within the apartment succeeded in
reaching the hallway and slammed the
door, leaving the dog a prisoner.
Patrolman Thomas Wedder heard
the dogs cries. and was told of the
affair by neighbors. Patrolman
Thomas Creevy Joined him, and with
drawn revolvers the two men entered
the kitchen.
Creevy advanced, guarding himself
with a chair. AS the brute sprang he
was met by bullet in the chest. Sew
eral shots were fired without effect
and the dog landed on the chair held
in Creevy's hands splintering 1t.
Finally the animal ran into a bed
room and crawled under the bed. The
men fired two more shots and he rolled
over as though dead.
Without warning the animal revived,
grabbing Creevy in the right thigh,
tearing cash of several inches and
cutting the leg of his trousers entirely
off.
Then he sprang for the last time
and his jowls were within a foot of
Wedders throat when the last shot
struck him squarely under the eye,
killing him. The time of the fight was
90 minutes.
Every one OF the IL bullets fired had
passed through his body. The dog
was a pure white English thorough.

been regarded as dangerous for some
time.

then be sown without danger from the
chemical The seedlings are trans
planted to flats and then to cold
frames, though they are not so rigor-
ously hardened as cabbage plants. A
full ton of high grade fertilizer, run
ming about six per cent of nitrogen,
eight of phosphoric acid, and ten OF
potash, is applied to each acre. The
fertilizer should be put on just before
the plants are set, about the middle of
May The distances are 33 inches be-
tween rows, and seven inches in the
row. Great care should be taken to
avoid setting the plants too deep, as
the crown is partly covered and the
plant seriously stunted, usually ruined.
A row planted by careless worker
is conspicuous monument to his
memory throughout the season.
The water problem is a very serious
matter, and especially In growing
celery. There is hardly a year when
drought does not curtail the crop. IT.
rigation is the only remedy. Leaf
spot or celery blight is the most SER
ious pest 1t can be held in check by
faithful applications of Bordeaux mix
ture.
Blanching celery in hot waether Is
not SO easily accomplished as in the
fall. Soil at this season affords most
favorable conditions for rust. Instead
of this method, 12-inch boards are
used. Only good lumber is purchased,
cleats are nailed on to prevent split
ting. and the boards are as well cared
for as hotbed sash, far better than
many a gardener cares for them.
Each board does service six to seven
times in a season. When the plants
are IL inches high, the boards are
set beside them and fastened in place
with clamps made from piece OF
heavy wire about 10 inches long, and
bent to a little less than right angle
two inches from each end. Pairs or
rows are selected at intervals over the
field for the first blanching. In this
way wagon-ways are opened and labor
is saved In moving the boards from
row to row. The process requires
from 10 days to two weeks, according
to weather conditions. When ready
for market, the celery is dug with
spades and stripped of outside leaves
in the field. 1t is hauled to a shed,
trimmed, washed with hose, bunch
ed, and scrubbed. The root is cut to
a four-sided wedge and three or four
stalks are tied at top and bottom into
a fat bunch.

Victor Emmanueps Rare Coins.

King Victor Emmanuel, according
to French newspaper, is a numis-
matist of the first rank, and his mai.

and almost priceless.
The king is scientific collector,
and will shortly publish a treatise on
numismatics. 1t will run into sew
eral volumes, and will be entitled
Corpus Minimorum Italicorum." The
work will be complete catalogue of

Celery may be grown on any soil
from sand to clay, provided other con-
ditions are made right. Success is
largely a matter of fertility and mois-
ture. Fertility is maintained by the
use of cover crops, mine manure, and
commercial fertilizers, writes Paul

of seed. Rye has the advantage of a
greater bulk of humus and an assured
stand.
Seed for the early crop should be
sown in flats about March l. Earlier
sowings show a marked tendency to
run to seed, and there is little advant-
age in marketing before August /.

fects of the tannic acid and II the dis
ease is not advanced too far and the
animal can be furnished sufficient
food so it will not be forced to eat
the oak it will generally recover.
There are emergencies in which
the government must depart from the
usual policy of conserving the timber,
and disposing of It by well regulated
sales. 1t is some times necessary to
destroy bodies of timber OF consider
able extent, OF at least to cut the
trees and leave the logs lying In the
woods. where they may, or may not,
become useful before decay sets in.
Such apparent wastefulness is made
necessary most frequently by attacks
of the Black Hills beetles upon the
western yellow or Rock Mountain
pine. The destruction of beetle-infest-
ed trees is in reality no more waste
full than would be the destructive ac-
ton necessary to stamp out an infec-
tious disease among cattle, horses or
sheep. Trees which have been at.
tackled by the Black Hills pine beetle
are harboring the dangerous pest for
almost a year after the attack is
made. After that period. the beetles
having left them. they are no more a
menace than are the bleached bones
Of a steer scattered upon the prairie.
The Black Hills beetle has long
since passed beyond the confines of
the region which gives It name. Last
winter the insect was discovered in

drop to the ground without treatment.
The seed was brushed in with brush
drag or harrow on the second tract
and upon the third band Of sheep
was passed over the area in a COM
pact body twice. This summer it has
been found that the area not treated
has the lightest stand of seedlings.
while the resulting Seeding stand on
the other two areas showed but little
variation in density, but later. during
the period OF drought. the seedlings
on the area brushed over died out
badly. while on the area upon which
the sheep narrowed in the seed there
was very little loss.
Closer examination developed the
fact that the root systems of the seed
which had been tramped in were one
half to one inch deeper in the soil
than the root systems of the seed
which had been brushed in, this con-
clifton being due to the fact that the
iced was ground into the soil more
deeply by the sheep than by the
brush harrow.
So far as the investigation has
been carried it indicates that a dens-
or and more drought-resistant stand
Of bunch grass can be secured where
the sheep are allowed on an area
after the plants have seeded and
dropped the seed than where they
are excluded throughout the entire
season. This discovery is a confirma-
ton of the practicability of the plan

during the present summer through
the cattle eating oak leaves.
In that section of the country the
season has been unusually dry and
grass extremely scarce. To exc out
the scanty forage supply the cattle
have browsed heavily on the scrub
oak which covers large portions of
the range. Ordinarily the stock does
not browse on the oak and the little
they do get, taken with the other
food, is not injurious, but when, as
in the present season, the oak browse
furnishes a large proportion of the
daily food OF the cattle the results are
serious.
The oak leaves and sprouts contain
a large percentage of tannic acid. The
action of this acid on the stomach is
extremely injurious and the losses
have been unusually severe. The
symptoms Of the disease are staring
eyes, feverish and blistered lips and
nose. the animal ceases to Craze or
seek for food, and the hair is all
turned the wrong way, as in case of
loco poisoning. The animal does not
chew It's cud and in comparatively
short time 1t becomes too weak to re-
main on its feet and death rapidly
follows.
So far as is known the only avail
