ISOLATION and rest. 1t is to such thrifty
American home folks that we wish to
call attention to DURO Ready Mixed

1.-THE Last
Best
West

The Government of Canada now gives to every
Actual Settler 90 acres OF wheat growing
land free and an additional 100 acres al $500
acre.
The 100000 contented American Settlers
making their homes in Western Canada is the
best evidence of the superiority of that country.
They are becoming rich, growing from Is to 50
bushels wheat to the acre: 90 to no bushels ts
and As to 90 bushels barley, besides having splen-
did herds Of cattle raised on the prairie grass.
Dairying Is an important industry.
The crop Of 1908 still keeps Western Canada in
the lead. The world will soon look to it ita
iood-producer.
The thing which most impressed US
was the magnitude of the country that is
available for agricultural purposes.'-

Rev. II. M. Ellis Work.

Rev. H. M. Ellis, pastor of the
Methodist church at Brookhaven,
was a visitor at the capital for a
short while yesterday on personal
business.
Mr.. Ellis served several years as
pastor of the Capitol Street Metho-
dist church in this city, and later
as conference missionary evangelist.
While engaged In the latter en-
ployment he accomplished a notable
work in behalf of the missionary
endeavors of the Methodist church,
inducing large number of con-
gregationns to furnish support for
missionaries employed in the for
eign field.
Since taking charge Of the Meth
odist church at Brookhaven. to
which he was assigned by the an
nual conference session held at
Yazoo City, Mr.. Ellis has induced
his congregation to provide support
for one foreign missionary, and the
person selected for the work is Mr..
Z. E Davis, who will be stationed
at Santiago, Cuba.
In view of the fact that the
Methodists Of Brookhaven, includ-
ing the faculty Of Whitworth Col
lege. are already providing support
for one missionary, Miss jamie
Watkins, who is now stationed in
China, this is an exceptionally good
showing for the congregation.

Attention, Every Member farmers
Union.

There will be an important meet.
ing of your local on Saturday, Feb.
10th, and you are urgently request
ed to attend.
Your local secretary has been
furnished copies of the several
amendments proposed to our con-
stitution and they will be presented
and voted at this meeting.
These amendments were unani-
mously indorsed and adopted by
your delegates to the State Conven-
tion and their present ratification
means much for the future prosper
ity and perpetuation of the Union
in this State.
We believe the membership has
full confidence in the wisdom of it's
Convention, composed of two or
more representatives from nearly
every county in the State, and have
also faith and trust in the patriot
ism and integrity of the officers
they elected.
The adoption Of these amend
ments means much toward uphold
ing the hands of your officers in
carrying out the policies of the
Union as expressed by the people
through their representatives in
convention assembled, and in pro.
noting plans for the good Of the
order, which they may wish to pre-
sent to the membership from time
to time.
It is not thought that there will
be any material opposition to the
proposed measures, but as a two
third vote if required to change
any section of the Constitution it is
especially urged that you be present
to hear the amendments read. A
full vote is desired and it is to be
hoped the measures proposed will
meet your endorsement as unani-
mously as they were adopted by
your Convention.
Fraternally,

President.
