Row Over Church Property.
(Communicated.)


In reply to the piece that was pub
lished a week or two ago in regard to
the church row at Spruce, we want
to correct few mistakes. The piece
said that the C. P.'s forceably took
possession, which we positively did
not. 1t did not pass in the hands of
the u. P. A., they just took posses
sion. They maintained that in view
of the fact that a complete and har-
monious union was made between
the two congregations; that is simply
not so, and they also claim that no
effort has been made to keep the con-
gregation together. That is another
mistake. But don't take my word
about it, just ask the people of Spruce
IL they haven't locked every one of
the C. P. preachers out that have come
here to preach, and in answer to the
good that has been done under Rev.
Nichols, we can truly say that there
hasn't been a conversion under his
two years preaching, and if he
breaches twenty years longer, he
wouldn't have any better success

FEEDING CORN FODDER.

Corn fodder Is essentially fall and win
ter feed. Stock of all kinds begin to tire
of 1T along toward spring. This may De
because ii is made a too exclusive feed
during the winter months.
Since the blades of fodder are the most
palatable part. it should be SO handled
and stored that these will not be broken
off or spoiled. The handling should be
done In damp weather when the blades are
tough and there is little breaking. The
fodder should be placed i'll good hangers
or racks where 1t can not easily be pulled
out and trampled under foot. Horses. cat
tie and sheep will eat a large part of each
stalk IL the fodder is clean, we'll cured.
and presented to them IN clean recep-
tacles.
One reason why animals tire of fodder is
that it Is fed by itself for so long time.
II il were alternated or supplemented with
other rough feeds the animals would rel
ish it for a longer period. Unless cut at
Just the right time and cured perfectly,
fodder is not a very nourishng feed, yet
ii is a good rough feed for winter and can
be used to good account for several
months To save better feeds for
more needy times. Do not Try to feed the
entire crop to one class of stock, but give
them all a chance at it. Save all the rough
stalks and use them for bedding They are
difficult to pitch in the manure, vet they
are good absorbents of liquids and soon
decompose into hurnus when applied TO the
land

Bishop Missed His Calling.

a local sportsman, whose unconcealed
admiration for the city mans marks

conversation.

by a scrubbed card, and the next Lord s

WHY NOT OWN LANDa
ono of tn. best Way. to Make
Money Is to Invest In we~tern

Ono of tho best Ways to Make
Money Is to Invest In Western
Canada.
Deep down in the nature OF every
properly constituted man is the desire
to own some land" A writer in the
Iowa State Register thus tersely ex
presses ell-known truth. The ques-
tion is. Where is the best land to be
had at the lowest prices? and this the
article. The fact is not disguised that
the writer has a personal interest in
the statement of his case. and there is
no hidden meaning when he refers to
Western Canada as presenting greater
possibilities than any other part Of the
American Continent to the man who
Is Inclined to till the soil for Il liveli-
hood and possible competence What
interests one are the arguments adj
vanced by this writer, and when fnir-
ly analysed the conclusion is reached
that no matter what personal interest
the writer may have had his reasons
appear to have the quality Of great
soundness. The climatic conditions of
Western Canada are fully as good as
those OF Minnesota, the Dakotas Or
Iowa. the productiveness Of the soil is
as great, the social conditions are on
II parity. the laws are as we'll estab-
lished and as carefully observed. In
addition to these the price OF land is
much less, easier to secure. So. with
these advantages, why shouldn't this
the offer OF Western Canada be en-
braced? The hundreds of thousands
of settlers now there whose homes
were originally In the United States,
appear to be--are satisfied. Once in
a while complaints are heard. but the
Canadians have never spoken of the
country as an Eldorado, no matter
what they may have thought The
writer happened to have at hand a
few letters. written by former residents
of the United States. from which one
OF two extracts are submitted. These
go to prove that the writer in the Neg
lister has good basis of fact in SUP
