FARMERS IN SASKATCHEWAN.
CENTRAL CANADA.

Arriving In Canada in 1891, just
eighteen years ago. e. A. Guillomin
could speak but his native language.
He Is Frenchman. He had but
q little over two dollars in his pocket,
thus being short over seven dollars of
the ten dollars required to secure en-
try for a homestead Of one hundred
and sixty acres. He eventually bor-
rowed the money and near Forget,
Saskatchewan, no started life in Can
ada on the homestead In which to-day
he Is the fortunate possessor OF fifty
quarter sections Of land, or 5000 acres.
Now Mr.. Guillomin did not acquire
all these acres as a result altogether Of
his farming operations. which were
extensive. He looked with satisfac-
ton upon what he was doing on his
limited area, he was saving. careful.
and had foresight. Surrounding land
could be had for about $500 per acre.
and he continued buying as his saw
ings would permit, until now he has
fifty quarter sections, some of which
he can sell at $500 per acre.
Threshed Fifty Thousand Bushels.
This year he was engaged in thresh-
ing on his place for SAN days. He
threshed out $4,000 bushels of wheat,
of which he sold $4,000 bushels, one
train load, at price varying from "a
to 81 cents per bushel. He has on
hand still 10000 bushels. In addition
to wheat he raised 10000 bushels of
oats, 1000 bushels of barley and 500
bushels of fax. He owns 104 horses
and a number of cattle, but since the
construction of the railway he has
been engaged chiefly in raising wheat.
This year he bought his first thresh-
ing machine, paying for 1t the sum
of $2,100. He estimates that the ma
chine earned for him this fall $4,000,
thus paying for itself in one season
and leaving 5000 to the good. The
weather was very propitious for farm
threshing, not single day being lost
In the two months which were spent
In this work. The wheat averaged %
bushels to the acre and graded No. /
and No. Northern. In the past nine
years seven good crops have been har-
vested on this farm. For six success.
sive years the returns were excellent,
that is in the years 1901, 1902, 1908,
1904, 1905 and 1906. In the two fol-
lowing years there was partial fail
ure. AS the years have passed the
quality of the buildings on the farm
have been steadily improved. and are
now as good as can be found in the
district. About $4,000 has been in
vested in this way by Mr.. Guillomin.
The farm consists of $3.50 acres, of
which about 5000 acres we're under
crop this season.

The above is an excellent half-tone
reproduction of miniature painting of
c. M. Harmon of New York recently
painted by Eel E. Talbert of this city
While miniature painting is one of the
oldest arts known to the lovers of the
beautiful it is surprising to know how
few real miniature artists there are in
America today. Much work that passes
for miniature painting is in reality
only traced from photographs and is
not in itself any test of the artists
skill Some idea of the immense
amount of work and extreme delicacy
of touch may be had when it is learned
that Mr.. Talbert spent almost two
months on the picture, the work being
done entirely from life and requiring
several settings of over one hour each.
Besides it was all done under a high
power glass and on the most delicate
piece of ground ivory. A few years
ago Mr.. Talbert was commissioned by
the National Cattlemens association to
paint a miniature of their president on
his favorite horse. This picture took
six months work and is today regard
ed as one of the finest miniatures in
America.
Mr.. Talbert possesses to a marked
degree all of the finer instincts which
mark the real artist, and it was only
after much persuasion that he was in
duced to permit The Herald to repro
duce in half-tone one of his paintings.

WORK FoR rHE CHILDREN

ut seems to me one of the greatest
needs in bringing up children to find
work for them as soon as they are
old enough, which time, by the way, is
much younger than most of us sup
pose. This question of work is not
so hard for girls. for we can, if we
will, teach them to cook or sew, or do
any Of the useful things about a house,
and if they are given variety enough
and taught in a pleasant way, they
will learn to love this work, and it
will be a blessing to them as long as
they live. I once met a young woman,
by becoming interested in her neglect
ed child, whom 1 found wandering
through the corridors of an apartment
house in Chicago who was a striking
example of the failure of parents in
this respect. This woman was mar
ried while very young to master
workman, whose daily income of SO
could scarcely support them. She knew
nothing of cooking. Their meals,
ready cooked, were bought for the
most part at a delicatessen store,
costing ten times as much as a much
better cooked meal at home. They
never knew the taste of a good hot
steak or a homemade soup that puts
so much heart into a man after a
hard days work. This woman knew
no more about sewing than she did
about cooking. Their clothes were all
bought ready made, and were never
made over for any saving of expense,
and when I tried to teach this poor
ignorant woman she would give up at
the least discouragement. She was
not used to it, she said. Indeed, 1
found that she could not or would not
learn, and yet l have no doubt that
if she had become interested in the
duties of home-making as a child she
could have kept up such interest as
she needed.
"It is easy to find work for country
boys-there is always the garden in
summer, bringing in wood or coal and
caring for pets and stock in winter,
but it is a more difficult proposition to
keep the city boy occupied. And for
the most part children like to work. I
have seen boys standing three deep
around the work benches in a manual
training school waiting for a chance
at the TOOLS One day in Chicago 1
saw a small boy who had been set to
dig a hole a foot square in a small
back yard for the purpose of planting
a rose bush. In less time than it takes
to tell it there were other boys around
him all speaking at once: 'Oh, let me
help you dig; what are you doing?
Let's dig a big hole etc. 1t took
older heads and wiser hands than
those belonging to the first small boy
to ward off the damage that might
have resulted just from the desire of
those poor idle boys to do something
Let the boys and girls keep busy. The
city boys can larn to work in brass,
wood carving, wood burning, etc.; the
boy can raise chickens, rab-
bits or other live stock. There are
many things our girls can do. Let us
guide them toward the right sort of
work. Modern Precilla.

While the business interests of Mil
waukee have apparently been inditfeI
ent to the holding of another show,
the business men of Chicago have
been active, and sentiment has de-
veloped that cannot fail to make the
coming show an unqualified success.
The announcement of this years show
at Milwaukee apparently served as a
tonic to the Chicago businessmen and
they have been exceedingly busy in
arousing their people. Chicago now
wants the dairy show. In addition to
this the Coliseum, while not perfect,
is more satisfactorily arranged for
bous ing the show. The hotel accom-
odations of the city are ample, and
rates suited to all while transportation
facilities are unsurpassed.
After Investigating every phase of
the question and after considering
how best to serve the varied interests

standpoint but from all others as we'll
the directors voted to reconsider their
previous action, and have entered into
a contract with the Chicago Coliseu m
officials, and other business interests,
to hold the 1910 show in that city
next October.
At no time in the history of the
National Dairy Show Association have
conditions appeared so suspicious, and
the officials of the organization so
hopeful over the prospects for the next
show. From now on the work OF
planning details and organizing the
different branches will be actively
pushed, and in doing this the hearty
cooperation of every man interested
is requested.

The farms of the state fairly radiate
prosperity. The homes are we'll kept,
the barns are commodious and we'll
painted, the farmsteads are attractive
looking with we'll kept fences, yards
and lawns, the fields are preparing to
yield rich harvest and upon the pas
lures large, sleek, fat cattle Craze
contentedly. That is the unfortunate
part of it. Farmers are so prosperous
and in such easy circumstances that
they are not living ur to the full linn
it Of their possibilities. They are not
keeping dairy cows. The land is so
fertile that it yields crop with very
little work. Naturally season after
season passes without restoring to the
soil the fertility necessary to main
tain these large crops indefinitely.
There is place, unquestionably, for
beef stock. There is also a place
for dairy stock but with any kind of
farming it is necessary to guard
against the inroads upon soil fertility
and dairy farming provides this most
effectively. The silo indicates also
that the farmer is alive to the neces-
sity of using all OF the feed that can
be obtained from the crop. The farm
upon which a silo is not used wastes
annually from 80 to 80 per cent of
its corn crop and herein lies the dan
ger because it shows that the farmer
is Indifferent and not alive to the
possibilities OF his soil. The lesson
taught by older states. especially
those in the east, should be needed
in the west before it is too late. 1t
is impossible to continually crop land
without replacing the constituents
taken out by the plant growth from
year to year. 1t is we'll enough to be
prosperous and to be in extremely
comfortable circumstances but it is
indeed unfortunate to refuse to look
ahead towards the dangers that may
arise if one does not guard against
them in time.-Kimball's Dairy
