Towns Interesting Experiment.

An interesting experiment has just
been made by the ladies of the Tulle
(France) Red Cross society, who made
house-to-house visitation Of every
dwelling, rich and poor, asking how
much each inhabitant would be dis
posed to contribute in time Of war in
money, clothes, furniture, ETC., for
wounded who might be brought into
Tulle hospital.
It was understood that any surplus
would be given back to the donors, II
no use was found for it. The very
poorest insisted on adding their mites,
even IL it was only blanket, pair
of shoes or cotton nightcap. When
they had finished the ladies added UP
the result of their original quest, and
found that the hospital was not nearly
large enough to contain all the articles
promised. This, at any rate, is en-
couraging, for in actual wartime the
offerings would certainly be more
plentiful than for fictitious case.

them any superiority over the many
detachments of the army who were
called upon to suffer exactly as did
this brigade of whose endurance we
write; but 1t serves to bring before
the reader war and its suffering, and
may serve to direct the thoughts of
our citizens at this memorial season
to the character of the men whose
death we commemorate.
We are writing Of the opening Of
Grants campaign in the Wilderness;
not to discuss strategy or tactics, but
to describe what that campaign meant
to US who commanded on the fight
ing line.
Shortly before the arrival Of Gen
eral Grant, who had determined to at
tach the headquarters Of the armies
of the United States to the headquar-
ters of the Army of the Potomac,
which was under the command of
Major Gen George c. Meade, the First
brigade of the Second division, Sec
ond corps, after the consolidation of
corps and divisions, was composed OF
the Twentieth, Nineteenth and Fiji
teenth Massachusetts regiments, the
Fifty-ninth, Forty-second and Eighty
second New York regiments, the Nine
teenth Maine, the Seventh Michigan
and the First company Of the Massa-
chusetts sharpshooters.
It had formed the major part of
General Sedgwicks old division, which
fought under General Sumner on the
peninsula 1t became afterward Glib

Gettysburg, in 1868, had been Webb's

BY the war department the regi.

Queen Poor ConversationaIist

Queen Mary is a poor conversation
alist. On some one being brought UP
to her it is said she will begin to talk
with remarkable felicity, setting the
other at ease and delighting him
Then, all OF a sudden, she suddenly
ceases, an acute silence supervenes
and the other does not know whether
to break the pause or slip away. The
fact is the queen talks we'll by dint OF
concentration; this does not always
last until the end Of the conversation,
and once the thread is broken she
grows distracted, thinking of some
thing else.

CANADA'S PLACE
AS A PRODUCER
Canada Is Getting a Great Many
Americans.

Three young provinces, Manitoba,
Saskatchewan, and Alberta" says a
New York financial journal, have al
ready made Winnipeg one of the great
est primary wheat markets Of the
world. IN 1904 they raised 58,000,000
bushels Of wheat Five years later
they produced 150.0OO,0OO bushels. In
1918 the crop Appropriated 100000
900 bushels. At the present rate of
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third in
the line of wheat producers. Ulti-
mately it will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has been the pioneer of our
development Undoubtedly it will
prove the same with Canada. In the
last calendar year our trade with Can
ada amounted to 497 million dollars.
Only with two countries-the United
Kingdom and Germany-is our trade
greater. No vivid imagination is
needed to see what the future devel-
opment Of Canada means to the
people of the United States.
The influx of American settlers to
the Canadian prairies is now In full
swing. Within the past few days
over 80 OF those arrived at Bassano
carrying with them effects and capital
TO the value of 100000. Fifty settlers
from Oregon arrived In Alberta a few
days ago; while Is families of settlers
from the state Of Colorado arrived at
Calgary on their journey northwards.
The goods and personal effects of this
party filled 20 box cars. OF live stock
alone they had IT'S horses, Is cows
and 1000 head Of poultry. Another
class Of settler has arrived at Peers,
10 miles west of Edmonton, where no
fewer than 200 German farmers have
taken up land These are from good
farming families and brought with
them a large amount of capital.
Then in South Western Saskatche-
wan, there are large numbers settling,
these from the United States predomi-
mating, while in the northern and CEN
trail portions of all these provinces,
the settlement of new people is going
on steadily Early in April, Peter
Goertz arrived in Cardiff after a six
day journey from Mcpherson, Kansas.
Mr. Goertz who had purchased land
here was in charge of a party Of 38
people from the same part of Kansas
and they came through with a special
train which included all their stock
and implements. The equipment was
all Rock Island ears, and was the first
full immigrant train ever sent out by
that railroad The farms purchased
by the members Of the party are
amongst the best in the district.
