Funds to Fight Tuberculosis.

Based on reports from all parts of
the United States the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
which shows that in 1910 nearly $751;
100000 was spent in the fight against
tuberculosis, as opposed to $S,000,00
spent in 1909. The largest item of ex-
pense in 1910 was for treatment in
sanatoria and hospitals, 81, 376,500 be-
Ing expended for that purpose, or
more than double the amount for 1909.
The anti-tuberculosis associations
spent S760,50O, and the tuberculosis
iispensaries $3.50, 900. The special mu-
nicipal and state expenditures aggre-
gate $1,750,000.
The statement declares that the
most significant fact in the survey of
the years work is the increase in the
percentage of public money spent
While in 1909 53.5 per cent. of the
total expenditure was from federal,
state, municipal or county funds, 626
per cent. came from public appropria-
tons in 1910. The actual amount of
public money spent in tuberculosis
work this past year was s9,267,900, or
more than double the amount from
this same source in 1909. This fact
indicates, the national association de-
clares, that anti-tuberculosis associa-
lions are gaining ground, by securing
Increased appropriations from public
money.

FLAX IS PROFITABLE
Wonderful Paying Proposition In
Western Canadian Prairies.

So much Is heard of the wheat, oats
and barley grown in the prairie lands
of western Canada, and SO much has
been told of the wealth to be made
out of the raising of cattle on
the succulent and rich grasses
of those fertile plains, that a
most important product has been al
most lost sight of, Flax Recent press
reports advise us that on one of the
last boats to clear from Fort William
Cat the head of Lake Superior) for
Buffalo, there were 241, 900 bushels of
flax valued at s5S3,22O, and on another
boat leaving the same day there were
2SS,000 bushels valued at $4,000.
There has been big demand for Ca
madam fax this season, and the lake
movement has been very heavy. Flax
is always sure crop, and gives to
the farmer who is anxious for quick
return after getting on his land, the
chance he is looking for. There is
opportunity for thousands yet, on the
free homesteads of 100 acres, and
many of these are available within
short distance of the lines of railway
that are already built or under con-
struction, either on the main line or
branches. Besides these free grant
lands there is an opportunity to pur-
chase from railway and land COM
panies at reasonable prices.
The display of western Canada's
grains in the straw as well as
threshed grains and grasses recently
made at st. Louis was an excellent
demonstration of what the country can
do. 1t proved splendid as an illustration
of the resources of that vast prairie
country, which during the past year
has again proven its ability to pro-
duce excellent yields of wheat, oats
and barley-and fax. Not only this,
but the splendid herds Of cattle are
a source of large revenue. There is
a fund of information to be had by
reading the Canadian government lit.
erature, copies of which may be had
free by applying to your nearest Ca.
madam government agent.

OLD COMMON SENSE.

"A great deal depends upon yourself

He was induced to stop eating any
sort of fried food or meat for break

cream, leaving OFF all medicines.
In few days he began to get bet

Mrs. -, new settler of the Ami

limited knowledge of the different va

telling about their "windfall" apples,
remarked to her husband: "Why don't
you order lot of windfall trees. Ev-
erybody in the valley has them" After
her husband recovered and informed
her what the term "windfall" meant
when applied to apples, she immedi-
ately went out and commenced talk
ing to the ducks and chickens. The
lady in question is probably distantly
related to the man who advertised for
what he supposed favorite breed of
hogs. He heard farmers telling about
having "runts' and so many having
them that he thought he should get
in line, and put an adv. in the pa
per stating that he would like to pur-
chase dozen "runt" pigs. When
farmers came from every direction
with their runts to get rid of them
he became wise.

several days among the farmers and
last Friday J. w. Turner and Mr..

chards and selected early varieties of
fruit which were packed and shipped

the Board of Trade rooms after the
Colorado New Mexico fair. 1t is urged
that farmers and fruit growers from
every section of the county save their
choice specimens and take them to
the Board of Trade roor,s. Already
large variety Of grasses have been
received and some splendid oats When
saving for this exhibit just lay aside
some of your choice products for the
