THE HOME OF THE CRANBERRY.

THE HOME OF THE CRANBERRY.
1t has been definitely settled that
the home of the wild cranberry is the
little town of Dennis on the north
shore of Cape Cod and that from that
place the culture Of this fruit spread
over the Cape counties until now sixty
per cent. of all the cranberries grown
in the United States are cultivated
there. The discovery that cranberries
could be improved by cultivation came
about by accident, like so many other
important discoveries. 1t was found
that near the shore the fine sand of
the beach, being blown over the vines,
made the berries grow larger and have
a finer flavor. Then the experiment
was made of sanding over the wild
bogs. The next step was to trans
plant the wild vines and cultivate
them with care.
Had it not been for this industry the
prospects for q livelihood on Cape Cod
would have been slim. The people
were quick to grasp this new oppor-
tunity, and not only did they utilize
all the available land at home. but be-
gan to cast their eyes about them for
opportunities elsewhere. In Plymouth
county they discovered bog land OF
much greater area than on Cape Coz
proper, and ample drainage and flow
age facilities. AS these bogs were 50
much larger than any to which they
had been accustomed they had to
seek capital for development and the
result was the formation Of a corpora

Il would rather raise cattle In West
ern Canada than in the corn belt of
the United States. You can get your
food cheaper and the climate is bet
ter for the purposes We have a bet
ter market, but your market will i'm
prove faster than your farmers will
produce the supplies. Winter wheat
can be grown in one,half of the coun-
try through which I have passed, and
alfalfa and one Of the varieties of
clover in t~hree-fourths of 1t. The
farmers do not believe this, but 1t is
true
Keeping pace with wheat produc-
ton, the growth Of railways has been
quite as wonderful. and the whole
country from Winnipeg to the Rocky
Mountains will soon be a network of
trunk and branch lines. Three great
transcontinental lines are pushing
construction in every direction. and
at each siding the grain elevator is
to be found. Manitoba being the
first settled province, has now an ele-
vator capacity Of upwards of rs, 900 900
bushels, Saskatchewan 20,000,00 and
Alberta about 7,000,0 900, while the ca
pacity of elevators at Fort William
and Port Arthur, on the Great Lakes,
is upwards of 20,OO0,0 900 more.
Within the provinces of Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and Alberta there are
flour and oatmeal mills with a COM
bined capacity of $4,000 barrels per
day, and situated along some famous
water powers in New Ontario, there
are larger mills than will be found
anywhere in the Prairie Provinces.
Last year the wheat crop totaled
over 100, 200, 900 bushels. This year
the crop will yield 10000 900 more. A
recent summary shows that on the LIST
of January, 1909, the surveyed lands
Of the three western provinces, totaled
1874, 900, 900 acres, of which about 49,,

scheme he unhappily added-'the one

Diet Of The Old,

A sane diet for a person of 70 or rs
should be made up largely of vege-
tables and fruit, some fish, some eggs,
a little meat and simple cereals, If
there is no inclination toward obesity.
Drinking with ones meals is not
considered advisable. especially as IL
guilds are apt to wash down the food
before it is properly m~asticated. Two
quarts of water, or more, should be
taken between meals, however, during
the day. Hot water is especially good
for one who does not exercise much,
as it Pushes out the entire system.
Stimulants, such as tea and coffee,
should not be very strong.-Harper's
Bazaar.
