THE LURE OF THE WEST
WESTERN CANADA ATTRACTING
THOUSANDS OF SETTLERS.

Writing on the Canadian West, an
eastern exchange tr%uthfully says:
THE West still calls with impera-
tive voice. To prairie and mountain,
and for the Pacific Coast, Ontario's
young men and women are attracted
by tens of thousands yearly. The
great migration has put an end to the
fear, freely expressed not many years
ago by those who knew the West from
the lakes to the farther coast of Van
couver Island, that Canada would
some day break in two because of the
predominance Of Continental European
and American settlers in the West"
This is true. While the immigra-
tion from the United States is large,
running close to $50, 600 a year, that Of
the British Isles and Continental
Europe nearly twice that number, max
ing a total of 400, 900 per year. there
is q strong influx from Eastern Can
ada. It is not only into the prairie
provinces that these people go, but
many of them continue westward, the
glory CT British Columbia's great trees
and great mountains, the excellent
agricultural valleys, where can be
grown almost all kinds OF agriculture
and where fruit has already achieved
prominence. Then the vast eXpanse
of the plains attract hundreds of thou
sands, who at once set to work to cul-
tivate their vast holdings. There is
still room, and great opportunity in
the West. The work of mans hands,
even In the cities with their record
breaking building rush, is the small
est part of the great panorama that
Is spread before the eve on a journey
through the country. Nature is still
supreme, and man is still the divine
pigmy a~udaciously seeking to impose
his will and stamp his mark upon an
unconquered half continent.
The feature that most commends
itself in Western development today
is the "home-making spirit" The
West will find happiness In planting
trees and making gardens and build
ing schools and colleges and universe
ties, and producing a home environ
ment so that there will be no disposi.
ton to regard the country as a tenn
porary place Of abode in which every
M is trying to make his pile prepar-
atory to going back East or becoming
a lotus-eater beside the Pacific.
The lure of the West is strong. 1t
will be still stronger when the crude
new towns and villages of the plains
are empowered in trees and vocal
with the song of birds.-Advertise'

GIANT THUYA GAINING FAVOR
Found Easier to Grow and Transplant
Than Any Other ConIfer-Likes
Any Soil.
By W. r.

The Giant Thuya is rapidly making
it's way in the good opinions of those
interested in conifers. 1t is found
easier to raise and easier to trans
plant than any other confer. 1t will
grow in almost any soil, ever in damp,
cold bottoms and on poor dry oolite,
and seems equally Indifferent to wind,
damp and spring frosts. There is no
reason why this tree should not be
sold in nurseries at the price of
spruce, unless it is the absence Of q
regular demand, for it a be got to
the proper size for planting in two
years less time. The tree seeds itself
in sandy soil.
In a visit to England a few years
ago, I saw a plantation Of Thuya and
larch planted in poor clay over chalk,
and the Thuya had completely out
stepped the larch. Another instance,

MANY WAYS OF SOWING OATS
Hakirs Any Preparation Of
the Soil.

Oats has been such an uncertain
often the best crop being from a field
that was sown broadcast and scratched
in any old way, that a question has
been raised among farmers as to the
advisability Of making any prepare
ton of the soil other than getting the
seed scattered and enough soil worked
up to V them.
In some sections this lack of the
proper preparation is the rule rather
than the exception. A great many
SOW the seed among corn stalks and
disc or cover with the cultivator, har'
rowing afterward.
In some cases this plan has pro-
duced good crops, but from my obser-
walton and experience the best crops
of oats are grown on land that has
been well broken either in the fall or
the early spring and the oats drilled
in at the rate of two bushels to the
acre.
When seed are put in in this way
there is no trusting to a rain to finish
covering them and they will begin to
terminate at once. The seed are all
put in the ground to the same depth,
resulting in an even stand.
When the seed are sown on top and
cultivated or disced in some will be
covered deep and in some cases shall
low or not at all. The birds will get
some of them or in a few weeks Of
dry weather they will not sprout at
once.
If a hard rain comes while covering
and before the harrow has been run
over the ground 1t can never be
smoothed so that a binder can be run
over 1t with comfort to the driver.

DIDN'T KNOW THE SENATOR
Thomas Of Colorado Was Barred at
Senate Door After His Hair
W. Cut.

As Sampson found his strength raj
isied after Delilah shipped his locks,
so Senator Thomas of Colorado found
his official identity lost after paying a
visit to a barber shop in the capitol.
He even was spurned by the senate
d~oorkeepers.
Senator Thomas long has gloried in
a waving name. But when the sizzling
heat of an unusually hot spring day
settled on Washington it ceased to be
a source of qualification or glory.
The senator stood the discomfort as
long as he could and then decided to
be shorn. An overzealous barber
shipped the statesman's locks down to
the scalp.
Back" said a portly doortender
when Senator Thomas sought to enter
to the floor of the senate. You can't
get in here"
But I'm Senator Thomas" pro-
tested the applicant.
Nothing doing" retorted the door
keeper, looking at the supposed intru.
der's apparently bald head. You'll
find the elevators to the public gal
leries down the corridor to your right"
The senator was rescued by a col,
league, who disclosed his identity to
the embarrassed keeper of the door.
The barber, at last reports, was said
to be in hiding.

Cannon of Solid Rock.

When the island Of Malta was under
the rule of the Knights of st. John
they defended their Notifications with
cannon bored in the living rock. Each
n of these strange weapons con
tanned an entire barrel of powder, and
as it was o possible to vary the aim
of these cannon 80 were made ready
facing various directions froE which
the enemy might approach.
When the fame Of these arms of de-
Tense became known to the world the
idea was taken up of transporting
rocks to SUBMITS to serve the same
purpose, but it was soon recognized to
be impracticable, and the cannon of
Malta, bored in solid rock, have
passed into history as the sole wea.
pons of the kind ever known.-Har-

Infant Hxaiene at School.

Out in Cleveland II trained nurses
are now giving lessons in infant by.
giene to the girl pupils attending 10
public schools. 1t is reported that the
girls have shown an intense and de-
lighted interest in the lessons, absorb
ing eagerly all that relates to the
proper care of babies. This kind of
instruction in the public schools repre-
sents something more and better than
the activity Of faddists. America, like
other countries, has a very large in
FAM death rate. Thousands of infants
die annually because they have not re-
ceived proper care. 1t is easily con-
ceivable that the proper training of
girls might save the lives OF many
babies.

The Lesser Of Two Evils.

A gentleman from the north was en-.
joying the excitement of a bear hunt
down in Mississippi. The bear was
surrounded in a small cane thicket
The dogs could not get the bear out
and the planter who was at the head
of the hunt called to one of the ne
groes:
Sam, go in there and get the bear
out"
The negro hesitated for a moment
and then plunged into the ane A few
moments after the negro, the bear and
the dogs were rolling upon the ground
outside.
After the hunt was over the visitor
said to the negro:

thicket with that bear?"
