Shorthand

A new machine. called the steno-
type. has been invented, which en-
ables the shorthand writer to get
from 400 to 600 words a minute upon
paper In an absolutely correct and
accurate form. The basis of operat-
ing a machine is phonetic spelling. 1t
is but a shorthand typewriter. While
the work done is virtually the same as
done by shorthand 1t has the advan-
tage of being recorded in plain Eng.
lish characters.

THE COLORADO SILVER TROPHY
FOR OATS WON A SECOND
TIME BY CANADA.

The most recent achievement of
Canada's West is winning for the Sec
n time the magnificent 1880 silver
trophy awarded by the State OF Colo
rado for the best peck OF oats. At
Columbus. Ohio, in 1911, j. c. Hill &
Sons or Lloydminster, Saskatchewan.
placed a peck OF oats grown on their
farm In competition, with oats from
every part OF the world. The judges
had no difficulty In deciding. and the
award was given TO the Saskatchewan
grown oats. In 1912, the Corn Expo
sition had no exhibition, and our Ca
madam friends, although ready for q
second contest had no opportunity.
In 1913, the exhibition OF the Society
was held at Columbus, s. c., and it Is
said or 1t that II was one Of the best
yet held. At this exhibition, which
comprised corn and all the smaller
grains, Hill & Son OF Lloydminster
had on exhibition for the contest an
other peck of oats grown on their
Saskatchewan farm, In 1912. There
was no trouble for the judges, no time
necessarily lost in reaching a decision,
Hill d Sons won, and for the second
time their name will appear on the
crest OF the cup. The third space will
doubtless be occupied by their name,
and then this splendid trophy will be
theirs.
During the past few years Western
Canada grains-wheat, oats, barley and
fsx-have been In competition with
grains from all other countries, and in
every case their superiority has been
shown. 1t is not only in oats, but ii
Is in wheat, in barley and In fax, that
Canada more than holds its own, when
placed side by side with grains from
other parts.
Mixed farming is taking a strong
hold not only in those parts of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
which up to the present have been de-
voted solely to grain growing, but also
in the districts contiguous, where the
conditions Of climate, shelter, water,
grass and hay make farming of this
kind, easy to prosecute and large in
profits. 1t was in the Province of
Manitoba that the steer was raised
that carried off the Championship Of
the steer class, at Chicago last De-
cember. This beast had been fattened
on the grass and hay of the Province
and the only finishing grain it had was
barley; not an ounce of corn.
Western Canada presents innumer-
able opportunities for the big farmer
who wants to cultivate his thousands
Of acres, the medium man satisfied
with a few hundred acres, the man
who is content to farm his free home
stead Of n hundred and sixty acres;
1t has opportunities for the investor,
the capitalist, the business man, the
manufacturer and the laborer.

located at different points in the Unit
ed States will be pleased on applica-
ton, to give any desired information,

COLLIE ON THE FARM
Good Dog Is as Essential as
Other Live Stock.
Rough-Coated Scotch Variety Is Not
Only Useful Around Sheep, but
Can BE Taught to Drive Cat
tie and Keep Watch.

There is nothing more companion
atle when rambling through the
wood or walking in the country than
a fine dog. On the farm a dog-a
good one-is as essential as other live
stock.
There is no animal more intelligent
or sagacious than a collie, and no dog
Is more suitable for the farmer. Col
lies are very beautiful. graceful in
every movement and are active all the
time. Their heavy coat adds to their
beauty. and enables them to with
stand all kinds OF exposure. A collie
Is easily taught. and soon learns TO
do useful duties about the place with
out Bidding. They think and act for
themselves in an emergency, making
most excellent watchdogs, and always
show loyalty and love for their mas
ter.
IL you have taken a fancy TO
a dog just get a good intelligent collie
and you will in a short time think
nearly as much Of him as any member
OF the family. They make fine COM
panions for women and children. They
are very affectionate and their affec-
tons are strong and lasting.
The r-ough-coated Scotch collie is
one of the oldest breeds of dogs. It's
history extends way back into ancient
times when dogs of this breed were
used by the shepherds to care for
their focks. 1t is today used for this
same purpose not only in the west
among the mountains and the plains,
but in England and Scotland, as we'll

Mount Royal Once Active voIc

Mount Royal Once Active Volcano.
In the work on the Canadian North
ern railway tunnel the engineers have
found that Mount Royal, under which
the line will pass, was at one time
either al active volcano or was made
by lava being forced through the
ground.
An interesting proof of the fact that
at n time a great glacier flowed
from the Laurentian mountains to the
st. Lawrence river was found in the
small heading on Ste. Monique street.
This was a piece of Laurentian gneiss,
a rock peculiar to the Laurentian
mountains, and it is believed that in
the past this rock was carried down
by a glacier, which probably emptied
into the st. Lawrence river not far
from the present harbor.

4 Case Of Mistaken identity

Last week when Governor
Hays came to our city there was
a big crowd present. He ar
rived at Hoxie from Little Rock
on No. 4 at 3:45, just at the
time No. 103 on the Frisco came
from the west, hence the street
car was too full for utterance.
$50 people were packed like sar-
dimes in all the available space.
After the car started from HOX-
lie and had gone about two blocks
it stopped to take on lady
passenger. This lady knew that
the governor was on board but
as she had never seen him, did
not know him, and he sat at a
point where she could not have
seen him if she had wanted to,
so crowded was the car. Al
ter this lady had crowded her
way into the car and stood for
some time Nate Williams of
Black Rock, who was also on
| board, dressed in his best bib
and tucker and a pleasant smile,
arose and gave her his seat.
As she sank into the seat,
she said to her seat companion,
III found out who the governor
was without asking; you see,
he is the politest man in the car,
the only man to offer me 9 seat
you see, he has been raised
right"
Since Nate has been dubbed

The Friendship of Treyathan.

The BateSVille poSt0llice mud
die has been definitely settled by
the announcement of Congress-
man Oldfield that he will recon-
mend Sam Deener, an excellent
gentleman and worthy citizen,
for the place. In taking this
step Mr.. Oldfeld was forced to
turn down the application OF
George TrevathanEe manager of
the Guard, for theName place.
Beyond any question George
Trevathan was the best friend
Congressman Oldfeld ever had
in the district. He will never
have another one like him, and
we realize in making this state
ment that never is quite a long
time. From a standpoint or
friendship, George Trevathan
was entitled to Oldfeld's shirt,
and all the balance Of his cloth
es. From a standpoint Of ser
vices rendered, it is safe to say
that Congressman Oldfeld would
