The city council has declared war
on the wooden sidewalk. 1t is too ex-
pensive 4 luxury and q producer of
falls, bruises and damage suits. In
spite of the miles of cement sidewalk
in the city, accidents seem to be more
plentiful now than they we're 10 years
ago when all of the sidewalks were
rickety wooden ones, probably for the
reason that people exercise less care
now than they used to. Wooden side
walks will be replaced with cement
sidewalks as soon as possible, but un-
til that can be done the sidewalks will
be torn out, if unsafe and filing put in.

The Base Ball Boys social last
Monday night was quite = success;
altho we didn't make as much money

After the program few charades
were given which seemed to take
very well.
The fortune telling booth was made
very pretty with rugs, pillows, hang
Tugs and furs. The fortune teller,
Miss Moran, was equally attractive in
her gypsy costume and her fortunes
were great.
The candy stand, which was de-
corated in orange and black, was 3
great success, but we could have used
the superlative degree If there had
been more candy.
Ice cream and cake were served
after the program in the recitation
room. This room was also decorated
in orange and black. The combina-
ton with the lights was very effec-
tive. The refreshments were fine and
there was plenty left over for some Of
our loyal(?) H. s. students if they had
felt inclined to come.
The evening was closed with games
in Miss Ackerman's room. A general
good time has been reported and one
of the best things of all was the sight
4 OF the three Senior roses (Archie,
| Cyrus and Dick) at work in the
Laboratory kitchen.
The Seniors had very important
meeting on Wednesday night, when
/ they arranged their commencement
dates.
j The Juniors had q meeting on We'd
nesday night, also, to decide on the
date for the Junior-Senior reception
but nothing definite was done aside
from holding the best calendar in the

The game was between the High
Schools of Herman and Morris but as

Good Milk Producers.

For feeding purposes he did not use
brewers grains. as he thought they
had a p%rejudicial effect on the milk,
but oil cake, with a fodder made by

A quantity of the latter was placed

The place bears all the outward
signs of prosperity. The buildings are
by no means new, but they are kept
in a state of sanitary cleanliness. At
tention was given to the admission of

COW in health a certain amount of
light is necessary for the winter
months.
All liquid sewage was carried off by
of a drain. The dairy itself
was a model of spotless cleanliness.
This. of course, was a virtue in itself,
but the farmer explained that he did
not expect it to be it's own reward.
He had made a good circle Of custom
ers and was in the habit of charging
them somewhat more than market
prices for butter; in return, he in
sured that it would be of the very best
quality, and of course made under con-
d!tions of the utmost cleanliness.

Close Study Of Individual Cow Is Nee
essary If Results Are to Be
Profitable.
(BY w, r.

-
Not long e | was looking at a
herd of cattle used for the production
Of milk and butter in winter. 1t has
the merit, at all events, of yielding
a handsome profit to the owner, and
differs in this way from many similar
herds.
1t was the mor interesting, there
fore, to look over the arrangement of
a herd by which this feat is accom-
pl1shed. There was, as the owner
smllingly said, no secret to disclose.
He is a a who lives on the prod
uce of his herd, and has made butter
a much greater factor in his prosper
ity than is the case with his neigh
bors. What he insisted upon as re-
CARDS feeding might be comprised in
two parts.
The first was that which may be de-
scribed as individuality; in other
words he paid no regard to the "ra-
tons" which many textbooks give for
the COW.
There was no such thing, he said, as
the average cow" Some eat more
and some eat less. nor did their eat
ing bear any proportion that he could
fiend out to the amount of milk they
yielded.
1t necessitated the employment of a
mar who knew the idiosyncrsies OF
each COW and gave her what he knew
she should take, and nothing more.

10000 AMERICAN
SETTLERS GO
TO CANADA
THE YEAR 1909 HAS SHOWN AN
INCREASE OF OVER EIGHTY
PER CENT IN AMERICAN
SETTLEMENT.

Recent advices from Canada, our
next door neighbour, the neighbourly
country across the boundary line,
are that upwards of ninety thousand
settlers from the United States went
into Western Canada during the past
year, most of them for the purpose of
taking up and settling upon the va
cant lands, $50 acres Of which are
given free by the government, and
lands adjoining held by railway and
land companies are selling at from
nine to fifteen and twenty dollars per
acre. Even if thirty and forty dollars
per acre were paid, the price would be
low, as the lands produce wonderfully.
and at these higher figures there is a
large interest on the money and labor
invested. The ninety thousand set
tiers of last year, followed about sixty
thousand of the previous year, and for
several years the number has been
running into these large figures. There
must be a reason for it. 1t may be
found in the single phrase, they are
satisfied" Nothing attracts people
more than the success of others, and
the news of this reaching other thou
sands, causes them to investigate. The
investigation in this case is always
satisfactory. The splendid land of
Iowa, of Indiana, of Nebraska, Kansas,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio
and other States has risen to a high
value, and it is worth every dollar
asked for it. But there is not room
now for all on these lands. With the
ever increasing demand for grain,
there ONE the ever increasing de-
mand for land. Canada is the only
country on the continent in a position
to supply it. Land there that costs,
say fifteen dollars an acre, produces
on a reasonable calculation, 25 bushels
of wheat to the acre, or about $20.O 90.
The most liberal calculation as to cost
makes the cost to produce $3.50 per
acre, leaving a balance of $3.50 per
acre. The $3.50 carries good wages
for the farmer, and all other conceiv-
able contingencies. With conditions
like this, covering the entire area of
about 100000 square miles, it is read
lily understood why 10000 Americans
should follow the sixty thousand of
the previous year. Canadian Govern
ment Agencies at different points in
the Union are always ready to give in
formation regarding the free home
stead lands, ready to advise the set
tier as to the districts which would
suit him best.
