CANADA FORGING AHEAD.

Thomas G. ShotwelL one OF the
greatest market reporters in America,
writes from New York, under date of
March goth, and says:
The tariff tangle with Canada
which President Taft has taken in
hand is of Importance chiefly because
of the multitude of American farmers
that are crossing into the Canadian
northwest. Most conservative esti-
mates OF their number place 1t at
10000 for 1910. Some say as many
as 100000 will cross. These are all
expert farmers and their places in the
United States are being filled by un-
trained men from Europe and from
the cities. Canada is gaining rapidly
in agricultural Importance and within
a few years the United States will
have to call on the Dominion for
wheat. Production Of wheat in the
United States is not keeping pace with
the population. A tariff war would
complicate the problem of getting
food. Even now Canadian farmers
are getting higher prices for their cat
tie on the hoof, and Canadian house
wives are paying less for meat in the
butcher shops than farmers and house.
wives are receiving and paying in the
United States. The tariff on cattle
and wheat must be removed as be-
tween the two countries before long"

DOES GOOD BREEDING PAW

1t Is so seldom one sees such ar
ticles as the following appearing in the
local papers that one feels like COM
mending the paper and editor who will
write such an article. Too often such
incidents are lost sight of entirely and
yet there is no better evidence of the
fact that good breeding does pay than
this This article is taken from the
Miller Gazette. Miller, S. d.:
There was at the Cushman sale dem
onstration of what good and poor

point of selling. Mr.. Cushman had come
thoroughbred pedigreed hogs of the
DGroc family which sold from seven
teen to thirty-two dollars. Pedigreed
dogs sold for ten dollars We consider
the above prices good. Mr.. Cushman
had some forty horses for sale, mostly
young horses. and horse buyers were
there in great numbers, and from q
great distance. from Clinton. Ia, and
from North Dakota These horses had
all had been raised upon the ranch
and cared for by Mr.. Cushman. he had
become attached to them, and had ap-
parently made himself believe he had
number one good horses He had a
stallion which he called a French Coach
and had used him for several years
and talked as If he really thought il
was first class horse; as fact the
horse was small, Of slim build and
small boned having no marks even of
"A good road horse. AS result out of
this number of horses not one sold an
high as hundred dollars, many sell
ing down as low as thirty or forty
dollars. II Mr.. Cushman had invested
one thousand or fifteen hundred dollars

have been selling horses from one hum

.there-that they should have nothing
but a pedigreed and a good Individual
sire at the head of their herds. Let us
insist and impress upon the minds n
possible of the readers of the Gazette
who are raising stock the necessity of
good breeding.

Tho City Of Desire.
Yonder in the distance
Is the City OF Desire,
With Its castles gleamy golden
In the sunlight's misty fire,
And the glory of this city
With its portals rich and rare
Fills the soul with dreamy visions,
Dreams of those we love are there.
o! the sunburst of the glories
From the city's golden strand.
Where the air is filled with odors
From across the aowery land
AS we Journey toward the dawning
BY the murmuring restless sea.
Where the billowy waters roll
Past Gods eternity.
We can hear the sounds immortal
As we watch the oceans swell,
And our hearts are filled with yearnings
As we glance a sad farewell,
o! the glory that Is beaming
From this city far-away
AS we peer into its portals
In the harbor by the bay.

The simplitied spelling board will not
only lend its support to such 'silnplitl-

also to arouse Il wider public interest
in the general question of English or

ganized effort to make English a better
instrument for the hundreds of millions
who will have to use our language be-
fore the end of The twentieth century.
Although English is spreading more
rapidly than any other tongue, it has
the most Illogical spelling of any one
of the more important modern Ian
.guages.
The board intends to urge individuals
everywhere to exercise the privilege of
lsimplification and to encourage other
organize tions which are working TO-
ward the same end or have shown an
interest in the cause.
The immediate activities of the sim
pliiied spelling board will be directed
by an executive committee chosen from
the members residing in New York An
office will be opened in New York to
serve as headquarters for the work
and from this office the campaign of
education will be conducted by a CON-

Announcement was made of an or

affairs as we'll as leading men Of letters,

the simplification Of English spelling.
This new body is called the simpltfied

who for educational or practical rea-

easier. Andrew Carnegie has under

WINGED English might be made the
world language OF the future. and thus
one of the influences leading to univer-
sal peace; and he believes that the
chief obstacle to its speedy adoption is
to be found in its contradictory and diff
ficult spelling.
! The simplified spelling board contains
some thirty members living In various
parts of the union. Some OF them are
authors of wide reputation; some are
protested scholars connected with lead
ing universities: some are editors of the
foremost American dictionaries; some
are men distinguished in public life;
and some are men of affairs, prominent
