10000 AMERICAN
SETTLERS GO
TO CANADA
THE YEAR 1909 HAS SHOWN AN
INCREASE OF OVER EIGHTY
PER CENT IN AMERICAN
SETTLEMENT.

Recent advices from Canada, our
next door neighbour, the neighbourly
country across the boundary line,
are that upwards of ninety thousand
settlers from the United States went
into Western Canada during the past
year, most Of them for the purpose OF
taking up and settling upon the va
cant lands, 160 acres Of which are
given free by the government, and
lands adjoining held by railway and
land companies are selling at from
nine to fifteen and twenty dollars per
acre. Even If thirty and forty dollars
per acre were paid, the price would be
low, as the lands produce wonderfully,
and at these higher figures there Is
large interest on the money and labor
invested. The ninety thousand set
tiers of last year, followed about sixty
thousand of the previous year, and for
several years the number has 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 thou
sands, causes them to investigate. The
investigation in this case is always
satisfactory. The splendid land Of
Iowa, of Indiana, of Nebraska, Kansas,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, 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 demand for grain.
there comes the ever increasing de-
mand for land. Canada is the only
country on the continent in position
to supply it. Land there that costs,
say fifteen dollars an acre, produces
on q reasonable calculation, 25 bushels
of wheat to the acre, or about $4,000.
The most liberal calculation as to cost
makes the cost to produce $3.50 per
acre, leaving balance of $3.50 per
acre. The $3.50 carries good wages
for the farmer, and all other conceiv.
able contingencies. With conditions
like this, covering the entire area OF
about 100000 square miles, 1t is read
lily understood why 10000 Americans
should follow the sixty thousand Of
the previous year. Canadian Govern
ment Agencies at different points in
the Union are always ready to give in
formation regarding the free home
stead lands, ready to advise the set
tier as to the districts which would
suit him best.

ers. Except for q faulty fuse,
the general store of John H. Shaffer

blow up residences of workers en-

In spite of the $1,000 reward offered,

and torn off part of the porch.
Twelve other sticks were found con.

BUCKEYE STATE NEWS
CAMP PERRYWILL HAVE SHOOT
Ohio Target Place Retains Meet, but
Buckeye State Won't Have
to Paw

Washington, D. C.-The national
rife shoot of next summer will be
held at Camp Perry, o. The national
board for the promotion of rife prac-
tice decided as much during it's ses-
sion here. At the same time enlisted
men of the Ohio guard will not be
compelled to slave in the target pits
as markers as they have done in for
mer times. The markers will be fur
nished by the regular army.
Nor will any expense attach to the
state of Ohio because of the holding
of the shoot in the Buckeye State.
Gen. C. C. Weybrecht, the present ad-
jutant general, put two propositions
before the national board for the pro-
motion of rifle practice here. One was
that the enlisted men of the Ohio Ma
tional Guard would do no more work
in the pits at Camp Perry marking
targets. The other was that the state
of Ohio did not want the shoot if it
would cost the state money. The ma
tional board promptly secured the
services of regular army privates who
will look after the target pits at Camp
Perry.

apt to bother the tree. Mice will
work only where they have material
to hide under and If there is no such
material close to the tree in winter
they will not cross the open space. A
circle of coal ashes about the base of
the young tree makes good protec-
tion against mice, since they become
very compact and are not easily
worked under, If the trees are mulched
with straw or similar material it
should not be placed within at least a
foot of the tree.
AS a protection against rabbits
gnawing the bark from young trees in
winter the only remedy is to protect
the body of the tree to the height
above which a rabbit can reach. This
may be done by wrapping the lower
part of the tree with heavy paper or
several thicknesses Of common news
paper. A permanent protection may
be made by using small meshed poul-
try netting. Where the tree is
wrapped with paper or similar mate
rial, the strings or wires holding the
wrapping should be removed at the

season to prevent girdling CT the tree

PROTECT THE
FRUIT TREES
During Winter Something Muse
Be Done to Prevent RaVaSes
of Mice and Rabbits
Who Gnaw Bark.

During the winter season all young
apple trees should be protected from
mice and rabbits. Mice. being small,
gnaw the bark from the trees close to
the ground, but rabbits gnaw it of up
as far as they can reach. In either
case wheye the bark is seriously dis
turbed by the animals the tree either
dies or becomes stunted and distorted
in shape so that 1t is worse than use
less.
The way to prevent mice from gnaw-
ing young trees is to keep the ground
free from grass or other material in
which the animals can hide. If a
circle two feet in diameter about the
base of the tree is clear of dry vege-
table matter the mice are not very

PREACHERS STOP SUNDAY
Billy to Hold Meetings in
Their Town.

Canton, O.-The plan Of the Can

Billy Sunday to Canton to head
a union evangelical movement has
fallen through, because of the refusal
of the Methodist churches of the city
to cooperate with the other churches
in the proposition.
When Sunday tentatively accepted
the invitation to conduct an evangelis-
tic movement in the auditorium of
this city it was upon the understand,
ing that all the churches of the &ity
would be allied. The Methodist min.
listers give as their reason for not
uniting with the movement that they
do not approve of Sundays methods.

tree is used. 1t is tied on with some
kind of cord, care being taken to tie
it firmly so it will stay. There are
many other methods of protecting
trees than the above, two of which
are here described. These are as fol-
lows:
Paint the trunks of the trees with
lime wash made rather thick, to
which has been added about one-balf
pound of arsenate of lead to each
pailful of wash. The lime wash is
made in the usual manner by mixing
lime and water. After adding the
arsenate of lead the whole mixture
should be thoroughly stirred to mix
the poison with the wash. This wash
is put on with an ordinary paint brush
and the trunk of the tree should be
covered as high as the rabbits can
reach. 1t should be renewed if there
is any indication Of injury to the trees
by rabbits. Onehalf pound Of paris
green may be substituted for the ar
senate of lead.
The trunks of the trees are wrapped
with paper, the paper being tied on
with corn to hold it in place. Old
newspapers may be used for the above
purpose, the care necessary being to
see that the paper entirely covers the
trunk of the tree high enough to pre-
vent the rabbits reaching the expUsed
portion above the paper.

RY !. E. MUNDELL.3

Many fruit and shade trees are lost
annually by being girded by rabbits.
The season in which most of the dam
age is done is during the winter
months.
With regard to remedies, there are
several advocated and these are usual
ly of two forms. The trunk of the tree
is either painted with some solution
or wrapped with some material. Many
patent protectors are on the market,
such as wire coils and thin sheets Of
wood. The wire coil protector slips
over the tree and can be left on the
year around and until the tree gets
too large for the coil. Then 1t must
be removed. When the sheets Of
wood are used they are put on the
tree in the fall and are removed in
the spring. A strip of the wood suf-
