hundred small German owls were or
dered from Europe, and a part Of the
order was delivered last September.
The owls were liberated in the fruit
growing districts and Immediately
proved a wonderful success. They kill
ed waxeyes. finches, green linnets,
thrushes, blackbirds and sparrows;
also mice, rats and young rabbits. They
fed their young On caterpillars, grubs

A NEW TOWN EVERY WEEK.
And a New school Every Schoo
Day.

And a New School Every school
Day.
The above caption about represents
the growth Of Central Canada. The
statement was made not long since
by a railroad man who claimed to have
made the remarkable discovery that
such was the case. There is not a
district of a fair amount Of settlement
in any Of the three Provinces of Mani
tobs, Saskatchewan and Alberta. u
has it's school, and the railways have
stations every seven or eight miles
apart, around which group the towns,
some large and some small, but each
important to its own district. Schools
are largely maintained by public
funds and the expense of tuition Is
but a nominal sum.
The final returns of the grain pro-
duction for Central Canada for 1909
are now in, and the figures show that
the value of the crops to he
of that country is about $4,000 900.
as compared with $12O,OOO,OOO last
e American farmers or those who
have gone from the United States, will
participate largely in these splendid
returns, and these comprise those who
have gone from nearly every state In
the Union.
One of the many proofs that might
be put forward showing the immense
wealth that comes to the farmers OF
Central Canada is seen in the sum
that has been spent during the past
two or three months by the farmers
who have for the time being ceased
worrying over the reaper and the
thresher, and are taking to enjoying
themselves for two or three months.
1t is said that So 900 people of these
Western Provinces spent the holiday
season visiting their old homes. Most
of these passengers paid forty and
some forty-five dollars for the round
trip. Some went to Great Britain,
some to the Continent, others to their
old homes in Eastern Canada, and
many thousands went to visit their
friends in the States. The amount
paid alone in transportation would be
upwards Of two million dollars. Some
make the trip every year. 1t need not
be asked, Can they afford it?" With
crops yielding them a profit of $40 to
S25 per acre, and some having as
much as twelve hundred or more
acres, the question is answered. The
Canadian government agents at differ
ent points in the States, report that
they have interviewed a great many of
those who are now visiting friends in
the different States, and they all ex-
press themselves as well satisfied, and
promise to take some Of their friends
back with them. There is still a lot
of free homestead land in splendid
districts, and other lands can be pur-
chased at a reasonable price from rail
way and land companies.

The Farm-Wife.

Where ends the road across the hill?
I do not know do not know;
But all day long and all the night
1 long to go-I long to go!
1t runs so straight beneath the sun.
So white beneath h moon;
It calls me from my work and dreams,
And I must answer-soon.
I bolt my door, I do my tasks,
I kiss my goodman's cheek
Yet I cannot hear my baby's laugh
For what the road would speak.
Where ends the road? I only know
Here, from the pasture-bars,
It is familiar to the sun
And mistress to the stars.

Hints About the House.

C%ranberries cooked with grapes make
a good dessert or pie.
Sprinkle graduated sugar on top of
jellies to prevent mold.
Boil vinegar in the fish skillet or
pan to destroy the fish odor.
To remove the odor of fish from
steel knives wash them in hot vine
gar, then suds.
Whipped cream tinted with any veg
etable matter is tempting on a cup of
hot chocolate.
If a lamp wick does not move easily
In the holder draw out one or two
threads from one side.
In making fruit pies, when they
boil over sprinkle some salt in the
oven and it will not smell.
A wire brush is excellent for clean
ing milk bottles and a little soda
in the water sweetens them.
Dry salt and a brush will take dust
off from velvet, plush and heavy en-
broidery that cannot be washed.
Even a dishcloth may prove expen-
sive; if dirty it may cause typhoid;
if linty it may clog the plumbing.
In making cheese balls to serve with
a lettuce course work brown nuts into
the cheese and note the delicious flavor
that this imparts.
If your rags curl up at the edges,
they can be made to lie flat by damp
ening the curled edges and pressing
with a hot iron.
To keep celery fresh a long time
wet a towel in cold water, wrap
around stalks. then roll in thick paper,
put in a cool place.
Covering the pan when fish is fry
ing is apt to make the flesh soft. A
solid firm meat, that is at the same
time tiaky, is what the good cook
likes.
A clean cloth dipped in hot water,
then a saucer of bran, will speedily
clean white paint without injury to it.
The soft bran acts like soap on the
dirt.
Nearly all metal teapots will cor
rode or rust slightly when put away
for a time. A woman who travels
says she preserves such articles by
filing them with flour. 1t is dry and
will not admit the least moisture.

many cases of female ills, such as in

YaIne of a Good Garden.

A good home garden is a great insti-
tuition. 1t means more on many farms
than the crop of wheat, corn or oats.
1t furnishes food for the family
throughout the summer, and, If prop
erly handled, a liberal supply for win
ter. Some gardens are handled SO skill
fully that there is a surplus of vege-
tables for sale almost every week. 1t
means much to the farmer and his
family and should be planned with the
utmost care and given the very best
attention.

Butter Fat and Butter.

What is the difference, you ask, be-
tween butter fat and butter? Or how
much butter will a given amount of
butter fat make? Well, the difference
Is usually about Is or 20 per cent-that
Is, eighty pounds of butter fat will
churn about a hundred potSnds of but
ter. The amount varies according to
the way OF doing the work, for some
butter has more water, salt and curds
in it than any other butter Anyway,
there will be more butter than butter
fat.
