Farmers Should Advertise.

One thing 1 am frequently impress. ed with is the fact that the farmers Of the South do not avail themselves Of the press as an advertising me dlum for the disposition of their prod uctS nearly as much as they should. We frequently have letters inquiring as to where a given breed of stock or some agricultural produes can be secured and we are usually anable to give this information.
 In taking up the agricultural pa. pers and looking through them for advertisements, we find that the prod. ucts desired are not advertised for sale, although we know these prod. ucts are to be sold and that che pro. ducers are anxious to dispose sf their products at good prices.
 As specific illustration, We ire. quently haze inquiries as to where Merino sheep can be procured. We take up the agricultural papers pub lished in the South and go through them and fail to find any advertise. ment of his breed. We are constantly receiving inquiries for various milk breeds of cattle and the different breeds of swine and inquiries con cerning other live stock.
 Judicious, advertising in our sgri- cultural papers would be beneficial to both the producer and the pur. chaser. w. R. DODSON, Director Louisiana Experiment Sta tion, New Orleans, La.

She Was a Real Orator.

Senator Beveridge during a recent visit to Portland talked about oratory.
 "The campaign he said, has given us oratory more remarkable for quan- fity than quality. True oratory is that which brings results, is that which converts an audience of supporters. Such oratory is rare.

WHY NOT OWN LAND?
oMS OF THE BEST WAYS TO MAKE MCNEY IS TO INVEST
 tN WESTERN CANADA.

Deep down in the nature of every
 saroperly constituted man is the desire
 tS own some land A writer in the
 loEa State Register thus tersely ex-
 presses a well-known truth. The ques-
 tioR is where is the best land to be
 had at the lowest prices, and this the
 saMe writer points out in the same ar-
 ticfe. The fact is not disguised that
 dhe writer has a personal interest in
 1he statement of his case, and there is
 no hidden meaning when he refers to
 Western Canada as presenting great
 CT possi bilities than any other part of
 the American Continent, to the mar
 who is inclined to till the soil for a
 Livelihood and possible competence.
 What interests one are the arguments
 advanced by this writer, and when
 fairly analysed the conclusion is
 reached that no matter what personal
 interest the writer may have had his
 peasons appear to have the quality of
 great soundness. The climatic condi- tious of Western Canada are fully as
 good as those of Minnesota, the Dako- fas or Iowa, the productiveness of the soil is as great, the social conditions are on parity, the laws are as well established and as carefully observed. In addition to these the price of land ss much less, easier to secure. So, with these advantages, why shouldn't this the offer of Western Canada-be embraced. The hundreds of thousands of settlers now there, whose homes were originally in the United States appear to be-are satisfied. Once in awhile 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 or two extracts are submitted. These go ao prove that the writer in the Regis ter has a good basis of fact in support of his statements regarding the excel lency of the grain growing area of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. On the 29th of April of this year w. AL- SShASJs OA AJCuS5lCCd <AAOCllel, iOLS friend in Detroit. He says: "The weather has been just fine ever since came here in March, and I believe one could find if he wanted to some small punches of snow around the edge of the lake. There is frost near ly every morning: at sunrise it begins to fade away, then those blue flow CTS open and look as fresh as if there had been no frost for a week. There is. no reason why this country should not become garden of Eden; the wealth is in the ground and only needs little encouragement from the government to induce capital in here. There is everything here to build with: good clay for brick; coal under meath. plenty of water in the spring lakes, and good springs coming out of the banks"

ROSY AND PLUMP Good Health from Right Food.

 About twelve months ago my Wife Tyas in very bad health, could not keep anything on her stomach. The Doctc.' recommended milk half water but it was not sufficiently nourishing.
 "A friend of mine told me one day to try Grape-Nuts and cream. The re- suit was really marvellous. My wife soon regained her usual strength and today is as rosy and plump as when a girl of sixteen

Take Warnlnu, Girlsi

Cupid is always painted with wings, perhaps to show how easily he can fly away. Mnay women forget this once they are married, and the man who fell in love with his wife, because, be- fore marriage, she always looked so dainty and well groomed, is sometimes woefully disappointed to find how lit tie care she takes over her appearance for ordinary, everyday occasions after wards.
 It isn't fair to any husband to let oneself go in this way. If you do, and find that very soon Cupid flies out at the window, you will have only yourself to blame.-Home Chat.

At any rate, We can say that wa know there is more than one screw loose, but it is up to our pleasure to find them. Here is one: Say you take a good beef to the butcher and ask him what he can allow you per pound This is about what he will say: "Ohl 1 can give you 4 and , cents if it is choice beef, but beef is slow go now, no demand much" Now as soon as he has it in his possession ask him what he can do for you What sort of piece do you want, is the beef you sold for f and 5 cents is worth from 10 to 15 cents. Oh you say you will not pay any such price and turn across the street for the next butcher. When you get there you find the same thing you have just left Beef is worth from 10 to 15 cents." You are helpless to do better. You have to let the butcher price both ways Certainly there is a screw out somewhere.
 
 beeves do we carry over until next year?
 How much grain rots each year? What is wrong? Something wrong somewhere. If we had our packing plants and elevators we could see what is wrong very soon. As long as we let them price both ways and pay freight every way we will still have hard times on the farm.
 If we have not enough get-up about us to remedy these things We ought to have to lay the brick without straw right on.
 Hell and destruction is never full | so are the eyes of man never satis- fed" Millions of dollars in the hands of any man is only an inspiration for more wealth. Nothing will ruil man or nation sooner than an unnat- ural concentration of wealth. This has been demonstrated in the his tory of man and nations.

THOUGHTS ON PRoFuNDlTY.

What is profound thought? What is the main difference between deep and shallow thinking?
 Oliver Wendell Holmes was said not to be deep thinker. He wrote pretty good stuff. Prof. Josiah Royce of Harvard college is generally acknowl- edged by those who are more or less familiar with his writings, to be a profound thinker. But has this qual- ity of profundity given him as much real insight as if his excellent lit erary talents had been concerned with lighter material?
 Appearances are often deceitful. Shakespeare, who made business of being interesting, put some monu- mental truths into the mouths of his clowns, not one of whom is considered to be profound.
 If Profundity were called up to the bar Of Truth and tried by it's peers would it not, upon the evidence, be ad judged hypocrite?
 When a person doesn't really under stand wEat he is talking about, ant he has literary talent enough to ar
 range his words so that they appea

Every business man in the South should exert his greatest influence from now on to induce the farmers to raise more wheat, corn, oats and vegetables next year, as well as hogs, cattle, mules and horses, and con dense his cotton crop. Plant more grain and less cotton should be the universal cry in the South. and every business man owes it to the prosper ity of the section to encourage this. II out of the low price of cotton comes diversification of agriculture and smaller cotton crops, it will prove blessing to the whole country.-Ab- | ilena Rennrrer
