MONEY MADE IN LIVE STOCK
IN CENTRAL CANADA.

w. J. Henderson, visiting Seattle,
writes the Canadian Government
Agent at Spokane, Wash, and says:
Il 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 60 bushels of
oats.
1T was the first week of May when 1
got my tent pitched, but the farmers
all around had finished putting in
their crops, SO / only got fifteen acres
broke n seeded. They advised me
as it was late not to put in much
wheat, so I put in five acres of wheat
II ten acres oats, one-half acre pota-
toes and vegetables. All kinds of veg
etables grow well up there, sweet corn,
tomatoes, onions, carrots, peas, beans,
cabbage. My wheat yielded about 20
bushels per acre, for which l got 76
cents, others got so cents; oats
threshed 35 bushels per acre. for which
l got 35 cents per bushel. You see 7
was three weeks late in getting them
In, sui i was SdtlSll6u.
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 a horse
that can pillow, from $4,000 up. 1 raised
so chickens and 5 pigs, as pork, chick
ems, butter and eggs pay well and al
ways a good market for anything a
man raises, Sc 1 have every reason to
be thankful, besides, at the end of
three years I get my patent for home
stead. / heard of no homestead SELL
ing for less than $4,000, so where IN
der the sun could an old man or
young man do better?"

Sunday school, was George Wash

Before her father could answer this
somewhat unexpected question Mays
s~ix-year-old brother broke in.

PLACING Him,
The Prince of GrumbIers.

When Mr.. Beeton asked if he did
not find many unreasonable people
among his summer boarders, Farmer
Joy quickly assented.
Lots an lots are never satisfied
anyway" he said. mo matter what's
done for 'em, there'll always be some
thing wrong somewheres.
Nov last summer" he went on,
with a cleaning eye, I'VE had a man
here that was so fond of grumblin'
that one day he actually called for a
toothpick after he'd had a glass Of
milk."-Youth's Companion.

A Dire Threat.

1t is we'll known that certain vaga-
bonds desire nothing better, especial
ly when the cold weather comes on,
than to be arrested and locked up, in
order that they may be taken car of
a while. One of this fraternity sue
ceeded in getting himself arrested for
vagrancy, and on the way to the lock
up he was SO much overSoyed by the
prospect of not having to sleep in the
open air that he behaved somewhat
boisterously.
Keep quiet," threatened the police
man; eff you don't, TIA let you go!"-

PRETTY GIRL
DELAYS Oak
Conductor Wouldn't Start Until Her
Umbrella Was Closed.

NEW YORK, August 21.-She was
about % and dressed in black, with a
green automobile veil tied about her
| hat. She asked Conductor $50 of a
White Plains avenue car to close her
umbrella last night, and as he was
young and obliging he tackled the job.
He held it horizontally and vertical
ly, tried mental suasion and brute
force, and gave it up several times
only to try again, after the young wo-
man had smiled at him. In the mean
time twenty-five dripping business
men who had taken temporary shelter
under the subway kiosk at the corner
of Melrose avenue and One Hundred
and Forty-ninth street. the Bronx
waited until they could board the car.
She was holding the pass like Horatio
and no one could squirm into the en-
trance around her. If anyone tried,
Conductor $50 gently but firmly stop
ped and said, Ladies first"
AS Cdtu CdI o4ONtu up DGuluu I0e
first one, and the passengers stuck
their heads from the windows 20
learn the cause of the delay, there
were loud complaints, until Conductor
536 explained that the umbrella would
not shut, and until it did she couldn't
get inl, and until she got in the car it
wouldn't go-'see?" He was a firm
conductor.
The young woman and the umbrella
were causing so much excitement that
she wanted to disown it, and pretend
it belonged to some one else, but the
trick didn't work. Everyone knew by
ler bushes that it was her property
Suddenly twenty minutes later,
he umbrella closed with a click. The
marooned in the kiosk
made a rush for the first car, and as
Conductor 536 pulled the bell for the
notorman to go ahead, he smiled re-
and said:
Don't mention it."
She was a pretty girl.

ground corn meal and grits than they
have been accustomed to for a decade
or more. This means that the once
familiar grist mill will again become
factor in the industrial economy of
the state, and that a man can carry
home on Saturday or other grinding
days, his own fresh grist from his own
wellcred corn, and thus another
chapter in the serial of returning pres
perity will be completed. The pella-
gra incident will likewise have the eff
feet of causing the farmers to be more
careful in their seed selection. which
