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

Writing on the Canadian West, an
eastern exchange truthfully says:
1.-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 ems 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-
ton from the United States Is large,
running close to 10000 a year, that Of
the British Isles and Continental
Europe nearly twice that number, max
ing a total Of 100000 per year, there
Is a strong influx from Eastern Can
ada. 1t Is not only into the prairie
provinces that these people go, but
many of them continue westward, the
glory Of 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-
tfvate their vast holdings. There is
still room, and great opportunity in
the West. The work of mans hands,

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER FACE

Stewartstown, Pa.-"Cuticura Soap
and Ointment cured my little boy Of
that awful disease eczema. It started
on the left side Of his face in a small
pimple forming yellow matter. 1t soon
spread rapidly over his face and head.
It got as raw and red as flannel. The
yellow matter ran down his face in
big drops. I kept a cloth on his neck
and mittens Of muslin on his hands to
keep him from scratching. The back
of his head got in big scabs and when
he would sleep the pillow would be
wet with the water that would come
out Of the scabs. Then these would
soften and come off. His whole head
swelled; his head, face, ears, legs and
hands were afflicted but the head and
face were worst. We or the child
never got a good sleep for a long time.
1--WE tried medicines and none did
any good. We spent about one hun
dred dollars on him. They thought my
little boy would die. We were told
about the Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment and bought some. He was com
pletely cured and it never left a scar"

FUNERAL H0N0RS FOR A MARE
rrotter Destroyed In Fire Is Given
o%bsequles In Keeping With AZ
fectlonate Regard of Owner.

Betty Green,' q trotting mare de-
stroyed in a fire at B~elleville, H.,
was given funeral honors In keeping
with her record of 2:10 and with the
affectionate regard Of her owner, VIII
liam L. Reichert. The body was
drawn to the grave on the Walnut
Grove stock farm, by six blooded
youngsters, and was lowered by stable
boys. The coffin was rose lined. Mr..
Retchert pronounced a eulogy after
recounting the mares track achieve
ments.
Perhaps Betty Green's terrible form
OF death aroused MI. Reichert's sym
pathies the nor keenly, but the in
tense love of a great race horse by an
owner is a primary sentiment. Maud

in history, being ap~proachable, in.

convIcts College Students.

More than fifty ~convicts are enrolled
at the State Agricultural college at
Manhattan, taking the various courses
offered at the college. They are, so
far as is known. the only convict col
lege students in the United States.
Few, If any, of the ~convicts have EVER
seen the college building, and it will
be some time before any of them can
see 1t, but nevertheless they are en-
rolled students doing regular work.
All the convict college students are
inmates of the United States peniten-
tiary here. They do their class work
in their cells and mail their lesson pa
pers to the college for correction.
Some Of the convicts are studying ag-
riculture, some civil engineering, 9TH
ers, mechanics, and some are studying
dairying. Nearly all of the students
enrolled in the agricultural or dairy
courses are men employed on the
prison farm or in the, dairy.-Leaven-

circumstances. To prevent the ami
mails from escaping, the necessary
fences have been erected, but these,
however, do not in the least prevent
the visitors from enjoying an unob-
structed view Of the animals. In fact,
the bars and fences, which always
give the impression of cages, have in
many instances been done away with
and in their place deep and wide
water basins with high walls have
been erected, thus completely seperat-
ing the animals from the spectator.
The polar bears can be seen under
a wooded hill in a grotto Of rocks and
not far from them are the sea lions,
the diving tricks of which are causing
the public, and especially the children,
a great deal Of amusement.
The wild sheep from the African
mountains and the chamois of the
Bavarian Alps are found in suitable
surroundings of wood clad hills, and
it Is extremely interesting to watch
these animals climbing and jumping
up and down the steep rocks.
A new feature of these geological
gardens is the lions terraces. Here
the architect has followed a new idea.
In an old temple with columns and
walls and hidden corners can be seen
dark named lions and the stealthy
forms of tigers haunting the ruins.
An up-to-date restaurant in the gar
dens was also designed and built by
Prof. Seidl. From the terraces of this
restaurant a beautiful view over the
park car be obtained. The background
Is formed by mountain ranges, tower
ing into the clear atmosphere like
mighty walls; their slopes, covered
with green verdure and woods, pre-
sent a beautiful panorama.

Generating the KIngbIrd.

The department Of agriculture has
granted a certificate of good character
to the kingbird, sometimes known in
the rural districts as the bee martin,
a species of fly catcher which inhabtts
nearly every part of the United States.
The kingbird has been under indict.
ment in many sections as a destroyer
of bees and a foe Of apiarists.
Experts nov declare that 1t kills
only the drones and the useless bees
and is. therefore, a boon to the bee
raiser. Besides that, it preys on many
harmful insects and protects farmers
chicken yards from d~epredations Of
crows and chicken hawks, which ii
savagely attacks.
