Mitchell.-For the past two weeks
the Catholic society of this city has
been carrying on a campaign to raise
the funds for the construction of an
academy building. The campaign has
been carried on wholly within the
membership Of the church, and prac-
tfcally every one of them has given
Of his means, one member contribut-
ing $4,000, and the Ladies' Altar So
ciety pledging the sum of $4,000. At
the end of the campaign Saturday the
sum of $4,000 was pledged. With that
amount being raised among the Cath
olics, efforts will be made to secure
the sum of $4,000 from among the
Professionals. The building is to cost
completed about $4,000, and work
on the big structure, which is to be
three stories high, with a basement
under all, will commence with the
opening of spring, the plans and speci-
fications having been drawn. The
academy is to provide for the educa-
ton of the Catholic boys and girls,
and facilities will be provided for at
least 300. An elementary and
academic course will be provided.
Aside from this new building ven
ture, 1t is expected that in the spring
a financial campaign will be started
for the erection of Y. M. c. A.
building. 1t was the intention to raise
the money this fall, but it was put off
until later in order to give the Cath
Ole people an opportunity to carry out
their plans.
Mitchell promises to do a large
amount Of building next year, there
being several large projects already
outlined to begin in the spring and
summer.

Scared Out.

The guides had pretty story to tel.
as often as they were asked why the
cliffs gave back no sound.
A beautiful Echo ESQ the story RAM
formerly dwelt in the valley, and had
great fun mocking people who, chanc-
ing that way, in any manner broke the
sylvan silence.
But once upon time party OF
smart women, prompted by the guides
knew not what chance, sat down in
the immediate neighborhood to enjoy
a game of progressive whist.
Gee, l give it up" cried the Echo
thereupon, and in CONSERVATION fed
the place, nevermore to return.-Puck.

Record BREAKING Potatoes.

Presho.-Speaking of big potatoes,
J. H. Conley. of this city, just got a
bushel from the country, sixteen OF
which weigh just thirty pounds. One
weighs two pounds and six ounces,
and two each weigh two pounds and
four ounces.
One farmer sold 1900 bushels from

was nearly ruined by getting too much
water on the land. Part of the field

We have some of the largest corn

Presho is shipping about 1000 tons

sell.

When Senator John E. Hessin and
daughter of Manhattan were doing
Europe and Asia last summer, says the
Kansas City Journal, they took mo-
tor boat ride on the Sea of Galilee.
In the party was a New York minis

ride the minister asked the boatman
the amount of the bill. The boatman
told him. 1t was exorbitant.

Accidentally Injured.

Big Stone. - The accidental dis
charge of an old and unused revolver
nearly caused the death of Mrs. Adolph
Tulowitski, of Big Stone. She and her
husband were unpacking an old trunk
when they found the revolver. In
removing the wrapping about it the
weapon was discharged. The bullet
struck Mrs. Tulowitski on the left side
near the collar bone and lodged
near the backbone, inflicting a dan
gerOus wound.

The southern lover was impetuous,

Mclaughlin Fifteen acres of flax

during the past week and yielded 149
bushels, or 9 and 14-15 bushels per

production of about $21S5 per acre,
which is not at all bad for a dry year.
Some of William Taylor's also was

CANADA'S CENSUS
a THIRTY-TWo PER CENT IN.
CREASE IN THE PAST TEN :
YEARS.

That Canada has come rapidly to
the front in the past ten years is am
ply shown in the results of the census
recently made public. The population
of the Dominion is now placed at
7,0S1,S 1863, which with outlying points
to be heard from, may bring it up to
~ millions as compared with 5,371,-
Bis In 1901. Though these figures are
large, they do not present a total as
large as was expected but they do
show greater increase Of percentage
in population for the decade than any
similar increase in the United States.
The highest percentage ever reached
BY the Republic was 24%: the per-
centage Of increase in Canada for the
decade Is 1920. Thus it will be seen
that the provinces west Of the lakes,
with the great broad fertile acres
ready for the sowing and immediate
reaping Of grain and the Valleys of
British Columbia capable Of producing
fruit with which to supply it's neigh
boring provinces east of the noun
tains, have attracted numbers, which
the expectations Of ten years ago.
Upon the prairies Of the ten years
ago there was but , spare scattering
Of people; but today, no matter in
which way you go, take any direction,
and you find homes and farms and
good ones too, occupied by the very
best class Of people in good sized set
Elements with plenty Of room for five
or six times as many more. The pop
nlation of Alberta is set down at 372,-
919, as compared with 1902 in 1901;
Saskatchewan 453,508 as compared
with 91.270 in 1901; Manitoba's 49,
691 compares we'll with it's 255.211 in
1901; and so does that Of British Co.
lumbia-362,76S as against 17S,657 in
1901; but in territory as large as
this population of 1,643,O00 is little
more than discernible in point of num-
bers. The work through it has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; its cities, Winnipeg
with $4,000; Vancouver with upwards
Of 100000; Calgary with $4,000; Ed
monitor, Regina, Saskatoon; Leth.
bridge; Medicine Hat, Moosejaw,
splendid cities-none better any
where; well maintained and equipped.
These have come with existence and
been built as they have been built by
reason Of the splendid agricultural
country by which they are surround
ed. The population is scarcely dis
cernible. A population ten or twelve
times that shown by the recent
census could be easily maintained in
even greater wealth than that which
maintains the present numbers. There
is certainly a wonderful future for
Western Canada and that which goes
to the development of the west will
enrich the last This is the growing
time in Canada and what has been
done in the past ten years is but a
beginning. The next decade will
show a far greater advancement. In
the meantime Canada is bidding well
come the progressive and industrious
citizen. The invitation is standing
one. At the forthcoming land exposi-
ton in Chicago, Canada will have one
of the best exhibits of farm products
that has ever been made and it will
be we'll worth while inspecting it and
getting information from those who
may be in charge.
