CANADA FORGING

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 II at
$4,000 for 1910. Some say as many
as 250.000 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 with
in 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 get
ting food. Even now Canadian farm
ers are getting higher prices for their
cattle on the hoof and Canadian house.
wives are paying less for meat In the

CHAPTER II.

The day was early over the mead
ows and the first dews lying with the
frost upon the stubble-fields when
Tempest came out of the house to the
terrace where his horse waited.
The avenues before him were nests
of golden and brown leaves, and his
mare at first went gingerly into them,
with pretty. careful steps. picking her
footing and shrinking as they cracked
and rustled. At the foot Of the ave-
nue. he skirted the ratings Of the park
in search of a small gate for pedes-
TRANS and leading out into the road
towards Billings Poke and Craven.
He had an idea, doubtless a very
reasonable one. that II Miss Carew
was as serious and good as she SEEM

and he smiled at the idea-"unless

the chase"
At Ramsdill's Polly told him the
lady had already started to walk to
the train and Tin was to follow her
later with her boxes.
Tempest. in whom the invigorating
day awakened the best of spirits. was
delighted. He wanted to find her fiy-
ing. II pleased him to see his psy-
chology was not at fault, and that he
should as well have the pleasure OF
the chase.

Why did she start SO soon?"
1t seemed that Miss Carew had
wished to 60 up Charms hill. and in
order to make the train she would be
coming down Wood lane in the hour.
Tempest rode away. At the end OF
Wood lane, just little to the road

Remember reading about his
fathers ghost appearing before
Hamlet of Denmark? Remember
how the ghost tells the frightened
prince that he could tell a few
things that would harrow up his
soul, freeze his young blood and
do a whole lot of other things,
even making his hair to stand on
end like quilts upon the fretful
porcupine?
Anyway, the real porcupine
never does what the ghost says
it does, until it gets mad. Then
the quilts stand on end, and
