family treasures: One pet poodle, one
gray cat in n blue blanket, and one

upon Bobby grew calm.
The poodle became restless In the
company OF his master on a seat In
front and signified his yearning for
Bobby's company by climbing up the
back Of the seat and casting goo goo
eyes at the Tabby. The sympathetic
mistress understood at once and said:

with us. Percy. dear, on one condition

This was too much for the stormy
westerner. With a loud snort he
reared up, paved his handbag from
the rack above his head, and pranced
into a coach ahead.

One arm of the U was shorter than

MONEY MADE IN LIVE STOCK
IN CENTRAL CANADA.

w. ]. Henderson. visiting Seattle,
writes the Canadian Government
Agent at Spokane. Wash. and says:
II have neighbors In Central Canada
raising wheat. barley and oats for the
past 20 years, and are now getting
from the same land 20 to 80 bushels OF
wheat per acre, 40 to go bushels Of
oats.
1T was the first week Of May when I
got my tent pitched. but the farmers
all around had finished putting In
their crops. so l only got fifteen acres
broke and seeded. They advised me
Us II was late not to put In much
wheat, 30 put in five acres OF wheat
and ten acres oats, one-half acre pota-
toes and vegetables. All kinds Of veg
stables grow we'll up there, sweet corn,
tomatoes, onions. carrots. peas, beans,
cabbage. My wheat yielded about 20
bushels per acre. for which ! got 70
cents, others got 80 cents; oats
threshed 35 bushels per acre, for which
got IS cents per bushel. You see I
was three weeks late In getting them
In, still l was satisfied.
From my observation, there Is more
money made in stock, such as cattle,
horses and sheep, as prices are high
for such, and It costs nothing to raise
them, as horses live the year around
out on the grass. In fact, farmers turn
their work horses out for the winter,
and they come in fresh and fat in the
spring. Cattle live out seven or eight
months. They NOW the prairie grass
and stack It for winter and give oat
straw. My neighbors sold steers at
$40 each. and any kind OF q horse
that can plow, from $4,000 up. raised
GO chickens and pigs, as pork, chick
ems, butter and eggs pay well and al
ways a good market for anything
man raises, so have every reason to
be thankful, besides, at the end OF
three years ! get my patent for home
stead. I heard of no homestead sell
ing for less than $4,000. so where I'M

young man do bottcr?"

with systematic and scientific expert

at the chautauqua will return to their

found himself in 1884 suffering from

declined to accept him as a risk.
These things led him to a systematic

thoroughly chewing everything he ate

 CT am confident that this activity will increase during the fall. as all in- dications point to an increase of busI. ness throughout the United States.
