The woman who kept this account

She had her daggerreotype taken, a

The accounts bristle with half and

The courts of several states have
dealt with an odd question, zone OF
them agreeing upon a similar answer.
When is it legally noon? Fire insur-
ance policies expire at noon n the
word is admitted to mean exactly y
O'Clock, midday. But standard time
has not been adopted in all commune
ties. Many small towns cling to sun
time, which may be from a few min

standard.

sued the company, holding that local
customs did not rule the policy and
that he was entitled to his insurance.
The state courts sustained him.
In another state 4 similar contention
was taken to the courts and just the
opposite decision given. Several con-
ficting preecdents have been establish

prospecting for gold. Subsequently the
Indians reported that II of the men

Charles King of Mount Pleasant, Utah
regarding his lost companion, Hay.
ward, were not satisfactory. King vas
arrested, and there began one of the
most splendid bits of detective work
of which Canada has record.
Sergeant Anderson turned over three
ashes of a campfire and found three
hard Jumps of flesh and a small piece
Of skull bone. In front stretched a
little slough, or lake. which seemed
a likely place in which to look for evi.
dence. Setting Indian women to fish
up with their toes any hard substance
they might feel IN the ooze, Anderson
secured a stickpin Of unusual make
and a sovereign case. He systematical'
ly drained the lake and found a shoe
with a broker eyed needle sticking in
it. The campfire ashes examined with
the microscope yielded the missing
part of the needles broken y and es'
tablished unmistakable connection be-
tween lake and camp.

summoned a Mr.. Hayward to come
from England to identify the trinkets
of his murdered brother. Link by link
the chain grew. 1t took eleven months
for Sergeant Anderson to get his com
plete case in shape. The mounted po'
lice brought ron Lesser Slave lake

be repeated in it's entirety, and once
more those forty men, women and
children left their traps and fishing
nets and came into Edmonton to tell
their story.
The result was that Charles King
was found guilty of the murder of Ed.

FfshinS-Time.

I cannot fix my mind to-day
On what l have to do;
A picture haunts my inner eye
OF waters swift and blue.
My fingers itch to cast a fly,
The bells of memory chime
And call me to the woods and fields.
For this is flshing-time.
I dream of mossy stepping-stores
In lazy amber brooks,
OF grassy banks with blossoms bright
And silent. shady hooks,
Where l forget the world Of toll
And wash away its CRIME
In crystal depths of running streams
That sins of fishing time.
I long to see the sunfish play,
The. minnows' merry school.
The trout beneath the shelving bank
Or in his favorite pool,
And all the silver flnny folk
That throng the watery cline:
Sc hand me out the old brown coat
I keep for fi~shing-time.

WESTERN CANADA AS A GRAIN
PRODUCER.
Never Saw Such Fine Wheat Any
where.

where.
Gust. Anderson, of Maidstone, SaS-
katchewan, was formerly of Minnesota,
and has beer in Contra canada three
years. On January IL, 1910, he writes:
"Arriving fifteen miles from Maid
stone, | bought a couple Of steers from
a rancher, as my capital was not large,
and with the two oxen | brought with
me, | broke % acres which l put in
crop in 1908, and had to clear some
brush. | earned $500 by breaking
fifteen acres for a %neighbor M dur
ing the summer 1 put up hay and
hauled timber and put up houses for
the settlers. Notwithstanding aheavy
frost on August 18th, l had 221% bush
els of wheat per acre and 60 bushels
of oats. Off 35 acres of wheat in 1909.
| got 81 bushels of wheat per acre
and 1900 bushels of oats off 20 acres.
l never saw such fine wheat anywhere.
We have plenty of rain between May
and August and after August seldom
any but dry, warm days. Water can
be had at from 20 to 40 feet, and
plenty of grass for cattle"
The evidence of Mr.. Anderson is Civ
en- because it is encouraging to the
man of small means who is DESTROYS
of lettering his condition. 1t shows
what can be done, and there is really
but small limit to the man with push
and energy to become wealthy on Can.
adian lands. And the grain that he
raises is good. A press dispatch says:
The quality of the wheat continues
to be the feature of the deliveries. In
the total of 1878 cars in the Febru-
airy inspections there were 2,S47 Of
high grade stuff, a percentage of Sf.2S.
For January the percentage was S2.21y
and for the six months it was SS.6.
This is an unusually high average. and
it demonstrates beyond the shadow OF
q doubt that the farmers in his part
of the Dominion still know how to
grow first class wheat. The crop of
1908 was considered good enough, and
its average of contract wheat was only
70 per cent. Good weather through
out the season was an important fac
tor, of course, in insuring the high
quality of the grain, and it is not
likely that atmospheric influences of
so favorable a character, will be en-
countered for a long time to come. The
best that can be expected is that a fair
average for a term of years will be
maintained.
