instant relief clears up all doubt,
brings the quick and welcome results,
saves dangerous, needless and harmful
operations, and is a permanent cure.
The mere fact that this wonderful cure
is sold in nearly every drug store in the
United States shows how generally peo-
pie rely upon it. But send your name
and address to the Pyramid Drug Co.,
267 Pyramid Bldg, Marshall, Mich, and
in a plain wrapper they will mail you a
free, convincing test that will surprise
you with its wonderful and welcome re-
suits. You can get the regular package

10000 AMERICAN SETTLERS GO
TO CANADA
The Year 1909 Has shown an In
crease OF over Eighty Per Cent
in American settlement

The Year 1900 Ens shown an In
crease Of over Eighty Per Cent
in American settlement.
Recent advices from Canada, our
next door neighbor. the neighbOrly
country across the boundary line are
that upwards Of ninety thousand set
tiers from the United States went into
Western Canada during the past year.
most of them for the purpose of TAX
ing up and settling upon the vacant
lands, 100 acres of which are given
free by The government, and lands adj
joining held by railway and land COM
panies are selling at from nine to IF
teen and twenty dollars per acre. Even
if thirty or forty dollars per acre were
paid, the price would then be low, as
the lands produce wonderfully, and at
these higher figures there is large
interest on the money and labor IN
vested. The ninety thousand settlers
of this year, followed about sixty thou
sand last year. ana for several years
the figures have 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 thousands causes them
to investigate The investigation IN
this case is always satisfactory. The
splendid land OF iowa, of Indiana, of
Nebraska. Kansas. Minnesota. WiSccn-
sin, Michigan. Ohio and other states
has risen to 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 de-
mand for grain there comes the ever
increasing demand for land. Canada
is the only country on the continent
in position to supply it. Land there
that costs, say, SO an acre. produces
on a reasonable calculation twenty
five bushels of wheat to the acre. or
about $50. The most liberal calcula-
ton as 10 cost makes the cost to pro-
duce $3.50 per acre, leaving balance
of $3.50 per acre The $3.50 carries
good wages for the farmer, and all
other conceivable contingencies. With
conditions like this, covering the en-
tire area of about 100000 square miles,
| it is readily understood why 10000
Americans should follow the $4,000
last year. Canadian government agen-
| cies at different points in the Union
are always ready to give information
regarding the free homestead lands,
ready to advise the settler as to the
districts which would suit him best.

Better Breeding Each Time.

No line of breeding requires more
thought and study than horse breed
ing. This is why so many fail in pro-
ducing the highest types One of the
essentials is knowing the type of sire
to breed the mare to- Many farmers
will breed light mare to a heavy
horse or the very opposite. and the re.
suit is nothing tangible in the way of
Improvement. Every farmer should
know what kind of an animal he has
and be able to select a sire TO breed
her to that will give an improved off,
spring With a proper selection made
here the remainder will be easy.
1t is well to note at the outset that
no horse is absolutely perfect. Every
animal has some defect, be it large
or small. The defects in the mare
should therefore be carefully noted.
and the sire selected should be espe-
cially strong in the weak points the
mare may have 1t should be hardly
necessary to mention that it is never
a good plan to cross breeds. To make
a success of the business the horse
breeder must select one breed and
stick to it.

exist Nearly all poultry ailments are
preventable if a few simple rules are
observed.
Plenty of grit is necessary. 1t may

fowls is a most prolific breeder of dis
ease germs.

tilated and dry at all times. Drafts
and damp floors claim heavy toll.
Impure food and soured mashes

of the digestive organs. Any chickens
showing symptoms of an unhealthy
condition should be at once isolated
from the flock. Better care can be
given it, and the danger of injecting
other fowls is removed.-Farm and

Buttcr from swcct cream.

The quality of butter seems more af-
fected by the degrees of ripeness at
which the cream is churned than by
any other one thing. 1t is now becom-
ing the fashion in some quarters to
churn sweet cream. 1t is said that the
butter keeps longer and some like it
better, though a moderate degree of
ripeness produces butter of the most
popular flavor. 1t is we'll known that
oyer-ripe cream makes an ill-flavored
butter, and the wonder is that so much
of it is produced. Negligence and
procrastination account for most of it.

Trim ming Fruit Trees,

Apple trees and other fruit trees
that were trimmed in the winter and
spring will produce sprouts around the
scars the following summer. Much flu
ture labor may be saved if the orch
ard is gone over every few weeks dur
ing the summer and these sprouts
rubbed off or cut off. Not allowing
them TO grow will conserve the food
supply of the tree, and it will be used
for growth in desired branches.
