TRICENTENAIRE
DE L 'ARR1vEE DU PREMIER Colon
AQUEBEC

II y aura trois siecles, en- 1917,
qu'une premiere ifamille francaise
arrivait a Quebec, ct la Soci6t6
Saint Jean-Baptiste de la vieille
capitale a decide de commemorer
Get 6y6nement par lerection dun
monument a Louis Hebert, lie pre-
mier habitant de Quebec.
LIE tricentenaire de Iarriv6e du
premier colon francais sur notre
sol co1ncidera avec lie cinquante-
naire de la Confederation cana
dienne, de meme qu'avec lie cente-
naire de la fondation de la Banque
de Montreal, la plus forte institu-
ton fnanciere de notre pays.
Ce tri pie evenement ne merite-
til pas d'etre cel6br6 par Pexposi-
ton universelle don't le projet a
provoql6 deja IN peu partout tant
d'enthousiasme?
LIE temps n'est-il pas propice,
d'attirer les yeux du monde enter
sur lie Canada, pour lequel lie wing
tieme steele a commence avec tant
de brillantes promesses?
Certains pays d'Europe ont en-
trepris une campagne de denigre-
ment contre notre pays, dams Pes-
p6rance de detourner lie courant
d'emigration qui Sc dirige vers
nous. Les journaux de Berlin
sont a la tete du movement ct
ron ne peut pr6voir quand lis
s'arreteront.
Une exposition universelle dams
la m6tropole canadienne n'aurait.
ellie pas pour effet de montrer aux
nations etrangeres l'inanite des
propos ibelleux debit6s sur lie
compte de notre jeune pays, don't
le d6veloppement ct la prosperite
excitent la jalousie?
Nous felicitons cordialement nos
amis les Quebecquois de vouloir
cel6brer le tricentenaire de la ve-
nue. du premier colon fraueais sur
le sol canadien, ct notre entiere

troll OF the farmer to eliminate this
small percentage Of loss. It is so
small as to be almost negligible.
In answer to the question as to
what to do with the male birds during
any but the breeding season, | would
reply that in my judgment the best
practlce for the farmer is to purchase
strong. vigorous, pure bred cockerels
OF the breed he prefers each year and
mate them with the breeding flocks
OF hens about the middle of February
Wnen the breeding season is over
dispose OF them. Get them off the
Iarm. Unless an artificial and in.
Hated purchase price has been given
the farmer will have gotten his money
BACK in the flock of strong young
CHICKS that are coming on. The hest
breeding year for a male bird is the
flrst year. When the first season ia
over, turn him off on the market for
Wnat ne will bring. There is no oh
lect In keeping him around to spoil
tne market value Of eggs by fertiliz
ing them and to eat up feed A new
bird Of different stock will be headed
Tor the following year.
The question of the neighbor,s
rooster in this connection is a verv
potent one, and ! hope and expect to
see within the next five years a law
on the statute books of this state that
makes 1t a misdemeanor for anyone
70 allow a male bird of any descrip-
uon to run at large in the open coun.
Try or in Town. When this law Is pro-
posed 1t Will cause much merriment:
IL Will be dubbed "the rooster law"
ana provoke some laughter, but 1t will
oe passed. And when it is II will
save the farmers of Kansas. at a con.
serVative estimate, a million dollars
a year. And let me call your atten.
tion to the fact that this money comes
into the state from outside sources
because our eggs are mostly marketed
outside the state.
Barton County democrat., 1913-09-19
EGGS WILL KEEP LONGEST WHEN INFERTILE

Among the means Of producing first
class market eggs none Is more i'm
portant or SO far-reaching as the pro-
duction OF infertile eggs. A very
large percentage Of the loss which oc.
ours by the deterioration and spelling
OF eggs during the hot months comes
from the appearance of the blood ring,
These blood rings mean just one thing
that the egg has been partly lncu.
bated and the embryo has died. For
some reason that portion of the heart
which pumps the blood away from the
heart beats little longer than the Dor.
ton which brings the blood back. The
result is that when the embryo dies
the blood settles at the extremities Of
the network of veins and leaves
more or less perfect pink ring.
Now. If the male birds were kent
away from the laying flocks there
would be no blood rings. 1t has been
found by experiments carried on in
Kansas by Investigators from the
Bureau of Animal Industry at Wash.
ingtOn. that 42 per cent, or nearly half.
or the total loss in market eggs during
the hot months was eliminated when
male birds were removed from the
tlock. 1t was further found BY thess
same observations that where the
male birds were kept from the laying
flocks the eggs, of good size and
naturally clean. collected twice a day
put In cave cellar that had a tenn.
perature Of about so degrees. mar.
Eeted twice a week. and protected
from the sun on the way to town
that 81 per cent of these eggs were
tested out by an expert candler as
flrst class eggs. This means that by
taking these pains the farmer can
practically control deterioration A
small percentage Of eggs, probably
represented by the 8 per cent that
were second class, are second class
eggs when they are laid. For the
present. at least, it is beyond the con.

almost without exception are proving
very favorable.
The ashy nature of the soil and the
sandy subsoil in this country causes
the water from the rains and melting
snow from the Rocky mountains to
almost disappear by seepage before ii
reaches the west line of Kansas and
the strong winds and the loose porous
soil make it very difficult to farm the
land in such a manner as TO conserve
the natural rainfall for plant food, So
in order to make any system of farm.
ing (dry farming included) successful
and place it on substantial paying
basis year after year. some means
must be provided by which a farmer
can lrrigate at least a small tract
not less ;han five acres each year.
Until recent years it was considered
lmpractlcaole and too expensive tC
irrigate by pumping from the under
flow. if the lift was more than 25 feet
but now with the improved pumps and
cheap oil engines which produce powel
at cost OF One-tourth to one-halI
cents per horse power hour, many
farmers are pumping against a head
OF more than Is feet and doing it at q
coS sufficiently low to make this
system of irrigation give satisfactory
returns.
The government census for 1910
credits Kansas with l39.995 acre:
capable OF being irrigated; that is
this amount OF land had been devel
Oped so that water could be applied
and plants to lrrigate 2l.SO5 acres
more were under construction. Al
Barton County democrat., 1913-09-19

The advantages of the pumping
plant for irrigation are that any
farmer who has water within a depth
Of rs feet can put in a plant if 1t il
nothing more than a windmill to irri-
gate his garden, or windmills and an
earth or concrete storage reservoir
to irrigate an acre or two or more
and the expense of well, cheap oil
engine and a pump to irrigate 40 acres
where the lift is Is feet would prob
ably not exceed $500, or about $3.50
per acre. The cost of irrigating with
such a plant would be approximately
five cents an acre-foot per foot Of lift,
or for 75-foot lift the cost would be
about 1915 an acre. And if you
were growing alfalfa, which would re-
quire about two acre-feet, the cost Of
watering it would be approximately
$3.50 an acre for the year. In this
system of irrigation the farmer has
absolute control Of the water rights
and he can gut on the AMOUNT Of water
needed at the proper time, for there
is practically 10 variation from year
to year in the uhderflow. In Colorado
on the large projects the water rights
cost not less than $50 per acre and
8 per cent interest on this amounts to
81 per acre per year and then the cost
OF the water used must be added,
which brings the cost up to about the
same as for pumping. However. the
duty Of the pumped water is much
greater than that handled by gravity,
for the losses due to seepage are small
and the clear pumped water does not
seal up the pores in the soil like
water carrying suspended matter.

that time only ga pumping plants
had been installed. Since 1910, how.
ever. a large number Of plants have
been put in. But the areas irrigated
BY these new plants are small, SO that
probably there is not over 160, 900
acres developed sufficiently 50 that It
can be watered. In my judgment the
idea Of five acres Of irrigated land

impressed upon the minds Of farmers

How the Countess Was Surrounded Swar of
but Oncouth Peasants ON Her husbands Estate

Vanderbilt, have been alarming.
Five millions had been settled on
the count at the time OF his mar
riage. This amount was placed in a
bank in Vienna before the marriage
ceremony and later two million
more was added to this. But the
last amount was generally credited
10 the Countess.
The marble palace in Budapest
with its art treasures and rare fur
nishlngs cost one million. II was
this first great expenditure that led
the Count TO believe that there could
never be an end to mis- wifes fortune.

This means that the CountesSB
fortune Of twelve millions had been
depleted by four millions, and this
amount being tied up in land was
practically non-product1ve. Adding
to this the five millions settled on
the Count which he would consent
to use only as he pleased and 1t can
readily be seen why the Vanderbilt
family were uneasy.
But there were other expenditures
that drained even the great Amerf-
can fortune of the Vanderbilt heir
ess. When she married the Count
the SZechenyi jewel boxes were
empty AS an American bride and
heiress 1t was natural that the
Countess should want to have jewels
as valuable as those worn by the
Archduchesses and other ladies Of
rank It Is estimated that It took
one million dollars to replenish this
jewel box. The countess's Jewels
are the envy of every one who sees
them. In Justice to the Count It
must be confessed that he spent
some of his own money in this task
The Count admits now that he did
not realize how the money was
melting. He, like the average man
who marries, instead of earning, q
fortune, supposed that there could
be no end to the money.
And now the Count develops new
phase. Having been foiled In his
political aspirations and having lost
interest in his new estates, he goes
In for high finance. He takes the
three millions left Of his five and at
tempts to make himself Money King
Of Hungary. Being absolutely ig-
norant he goes boldly In where wise
men would fear to tread. He

compliment to the fortune that per
