Nothing costs less than encourage

where, according to Miss Laut's guess there is only pure muskeg, quaking silt in a bed of water" there is really heavy timber, much of it eighteen inches in diameter. There is, ac- cording to the evidence of MT. Me Innes, of the geological survey, and of every traveller nOrthward from the Pas, no unusual difficulty in the way of building a railway. Further more, it is learned that the Pas branch of the Canadian Northern, about which the author entertained some fears, has proved a complete success, as was asserted by the rail- road from the beginning. In fact. the line is now in actual use, and the work trains this summer will complete the ballasting, for which first class material is taken from the right of way.
 One of the most interesting feat ures of the report is the brief sum- mary of the present traffic situation in western Canada, which makes new outlets to tide water imperative.

authority, are at variance with some recent gloomy predictions for the new road and may start a cOntrO- versy between the Dominion authori- ties and an American magazine writer in which the odds will be decidedly in favor of the government. Among the many foolish theories and guess es about this little known country which must give way before the cold facts of the engineers investigations is the notion, given some currency by Miss Agnes Laut, the writer in question, that the entire region be- ginning a short way north of he Saskatchewan river is an impossible swamp, or ''muskeg," which is flooded in summer and frozen in winter The governments report definitely proves for once and all the existence of at least three ridges of rock through this country on which not one but many railroads could be built and es- tablishes the simplicity of construct ing a line from the Pas to Fort Churchill over the limestone forma- tion, which begins at the river itself and into the big belt of fertile clay land which lies to the north of it.

to b egrOwn where none was grown before The construction of the Canadian Northern added to the out put and created a traffic that now overtaxes it's carrying capacity. A similar result will follow the con- struction of the Grand Trunk Pa cific. As our grain crop grows, SD must other industries. Last year some one hundred and thirty thou sand head of cattle reached the Win nipeg stock yards and eighty-six thousand were carried to the sea board. Two million tons of freight were received at Fort William, and out of that harbOr there was shipped over two million tons.
 Tt is obvious that there must be a larger outlet to the ocean or the de- velOpment of the west will be re tarded. Grain will not continue to be grown in excess of what can be marketed, and as every section of land added to the cultivated area O. the west increases the business. and therefore, the wealth of the east, the arrest of western development will be as keenly felt from the Atlantic to the Great Lakes as in the country beyond"

The movement for more practical education in American public schools has just received a big forward i'm petus by the decision of the Chicago school board to abolish Latin and algebra in the lower grades and the serious consideration of a proposition to build an immense training school of domestic science for the girls of the city. Plans for this school call for the expenditure of at least $300.- 900. Cooking and sewing will be the major subjects but it is intended that girls shall also be taught how to make beds, sweep, dust and do many other useful things which they may have to do when they leave school and enter homes of their own. No expense in equipment is to be spared if the plans are adopted and the best teachers of cooking and sewing in the country are to be employed to in- struct the future housewives in the art of making a home. The return to the three R's' and the common sense teaching of the little red school house" days by the dropping of Latin and algebra in all but the higher grades is part of a general effort on the part of the board of education to bring modern school ed- ucation more into harmony with the needs of the boys and girls. "Alge- bra in the grades means the dis placing of practical arithmetic" said trustee in explanation. Your boy or girl who is going to the high school will get algebra anyway. The boy or girl who is leaving school af- ter the eighth grade needs arithmetic more. Latin is also not essential to the pupil who leaves school early. What they want are practical stu dies The adoption of a system of combination school and shop train ing for boys, system as yet un- known in Chicago, rounded out one of the busiest sessions ever held by the committee. Under the new plan d boy desiring to learn a particular trade spends half of his time in school and the remaining half in a shop selected by the school officials. His diploma will be issued not only upon the knowledge required in school, but also on the practical re- suits accomplished in the shop.
