Canada Has One
More Champion
Resident of New Dayton, Alberta,
Gives His Opinion of Merits
of Canada

To The Gazette
The contributor to your valued
columns of few weeks ago is here
with called to account. He piled the
pen of SANDER for the apparent pur-
pose of picturing Canada as being
about as good for farming as the
Sahara desert for the Matching of
fish. Either John Plantze looked at
Canada through a rat hole or some
enterprising land shark sold him a
section of snow covering the Hudson
bay.
Unfortunates who are destined to
spend the rest of their existence in
the states have a weird idea of Cam
ada. Somewhere or other they have
gotten the idea that as soon as you
cross the border, you cast your. lot
with a tribe of greasy Eskimos, live
on seal fat, or else die of loneliness.
They thing that Canadian weather is
II months winter and the other month
d late in the fall, without any
daylight except the reflection from
the Aurora Borealis. They imagine
we can't grow crop of wheat once
in ten years unless the King of Eng
land installs steam pipes between
every furrow, moistens the soil with
a garden sprinkler, and then asks
providence to head off the Polar bliz-
yards.
l pay homage to the Queen of the
North, the fruitful bosom of Gods
creation, the paragon of earthly para
discs. Providence smiles on her
through sunbeams that rise in lust
rous tint from the depths of the At
lantic, travel their continental course
of sixteen hours and then dip for a
nights rest in the quiet waters of
the Pacific. Let one but scratch the
rolling surface of Canada's vest ex-
panse and gold-tinted mantle floods
the land in gold-producing grains
Contented cows roam the plains and
Craze to their fattened fill while Min
nesota coal bills run an upward race
with the thermometer. Delve be-
meath the sod and there are more
coal fields exposed than Guggenheim-
er ever grabbed from the Yankee
government. Dig well and you can
get sparkling water that does net
have to be doctored to kill the germs.
And while Canadians spend their sum-
mer nights under . blanket, Mime
sofa swelters in her imitation Of Ha-
des without check draft.
As for government-well we don't
have to kneel in the public streets and
pray God to save the king. And If
someone commits a murder he doesn't
die Of old age before he is convicted
and dangled from the gallows.

North Redwood Man To Be Candi-
date For Represent alive
At-Earge
W. W. Smith of Sleepy Eye Files
Today as Senator from Brown
-,r->>, and Redwood Counties
Con gresham Hammond Named as
Democratic Nominee for
Goyernorship

Joseph r. Keefe has announced his
candidancy for the nomination of
Represe ntative-at-Large from Brown
and Redwood Counties and will file
soon with Secretary Schmahl This
final decision was reached by Mr..
Keefe last week as the result of the
insistent demand made by his friends
Turing the past few months.
Mr.. Keefe and his work in the le-
gislature during the regular and
special sessions of the thirty-seventh
Legislature. are too well-known to the
citizens of Brown and Redwood
Counties to need anything in the
form of an introduction. Coming in
to notice first as the author of the
Keefe Bill, he became the supporter
of every worth while bill passed dur
ing the two sessions. 1t is largely
through the efforts of Mr.. Keefe that
Redwood County has the National
Guard Armory and Ramsey State
Park.
Brown. County has been very ur-
gent in trying to persuade Mr.. Keefe
to announce his candidancy, feeling
that his work for his own county
justified its belief that he would be
just as sincere in looking after the
interests of his constituency, where
ever located
So far no other candidate has been
announced and it is believed Mr..
Keefe will have no opposition.
Mr.. Keefe Is to-day attending the
Democratic Conference at 81. Paul;
where he went as a delegate from
Redwood County. He will probably
tile before his return to North Red
wood Thursday or Friday.
Files for Senate
w. w. Smith of Sleepy Eye ex-
pected to file his candidancy for the
senatorship while in st. Paul this
morning. While it has long been
known that Mr.. Smith would be a
candidate, his formal announcement
has not been made.
Mr.. Smith is well-known banker
of Sleepy Eye, known to the resi-
4dantss of Redwood County as we'll as
of Brown and held in the highest
esteem for his integrity in his politi-
cal and personal life.
Mr.. Smith is member of the Eff
ficiency Commission appointed by
Gov. Eberhart and in attending to
his duties on this commission he has
had an opportunity for close study
of many of the details of the state
needs as we'll as the remedies fol-

Senior Class PLAY
Friday Evening
Twentieth Of January Will Be Pres
ented BY Local Boys and Girls
AIT The Armory
MISS CORA ANDERSON is COACH
Drama Full of Funny Situations,
Good Lines and Interesting
Characters

The Twentieth of January" which
the Senior Glass has chosen as the
vehicle of its dramatic achievement,
will be presented at the National
Guard Armory Friday evening, April
8. The members of the cast have
been hard at work for some time,
and under the direction Of Miss Cora
Anderson, the presentation promises
to be finished product, and intense
ly interesting to Redwood Falls
audience which will be personally ac-
quainted with each member Of the
cast
Usual College Play
The thread of narrative is very
slender, just strong enough to hold
together the usual number Of col
lege pranks and campus love affairs
with occasional dashes of athletic
enthusiasm. The little drama is just
the ordinary college play, which in
terests the public, not because it pos
sesies any inherent greatness, but
because it pictures in. an inviting way
that most interesting Of all periods
in the life Of school boys and girls,
Che period made up Of examinations,
love affairs and athletics.
PRESENTATIONS Good
The characters throughout the play
are amusing and pleasing, and Miss
Anderson has chosen the actors best
suited to the characters they are to
represent. The motif Of the drama
from which 1t derives It's name and
its claim to q plot, is the attachment
between Lieut.. Jack Wilson and 1.-THE
heiress Doris Meredith, who are base
ly attack by Count Andrea Cassat
relli, who also has an attachment for
Miss Meredith and her American dol
lars. I'm the background Of this
ture Of the course Of true love whiun1
simply refuses to run smoothly, are
| a number of genuine college young
people who, with their schemes to
outwit the professors, their clever
! sayings and youthful enthusiasms,
succeed in rejuvenating the MIST
stolid and staid Of elderly behoiiers
and are keen delight to yoath-
full audience.

drawal from the Senate, all who
know Mr.. Smith feel that he will
prove a very worthy successor.
Hammond for Governor
Reports from the Capitol City yes
terday and today show possibility
of Congressman Hammond, Demo-
cratic nominee for Governor. The pos
sibility of his acceptance of the NOM
nation is not so strong however, as
Mr.. Hammond is keeping a Lind
like secrecy about his intention. The
result may be the same as the Lind
nomination of 1910 although it is
probable that the conference will
guard against that by holding the
meeting for a definite. answer from
Washington.

one comparing these figures. In most
cases there is marked increase, the
two county seat banks alone show
ing an aggregate increase Of $z45,-

ASP ARAGUS IS PLENTIFUL
AT THE MARKET STALLS
of Display of Early Spring vegeabIes-Eggs May
Thirty Cents Per Dozen by Easter.

Eggs for Easter may reach thirty
cents a dozen. and one dealer today
predicted the price would drop to
twenty five cents. Large shipments
are coming in daily. Today eggs were
quoted at thir:y-fiVe cents dozen.
Asparagus Is more plentiful today
than at any other time during the
season. Big shipments of Ii came into
Centre Market today and yesterday.
Il was bringing thirty to forty cents
for extra large lunches, and some
could be had for even less.
Reports here say that a bumper
fruit crop is expected in most of the
important orchards of the West and
South. The apricot and almond trees
near Meridian, Cal, are loaded with
blossoms and indications point to
bounteous crops, owing to mild
winter and an abundance of rain.
The cherry crop near Lodi, Cal,
should be ready to ship about the
first of May. Peach trees at Wala
Walo, Wash, give great promise. At
Hawthorne, Fla, the orange trees are
looking fine, exhibiting much new
growth and heavy bloom. Plant City
growers and shippers anticipate
nothing is moving from that section
now except Strawberries, and their
season is on the wane; but beginning
with April l and continuing to June
] there is no doubt that an unusual
crop will be sent out.
In the vegetable departments at
Centre Market the prices are only
slightly changed from those of last
week. There is noticeable increase
in the price of string beans. how
ever, difference of ten cents a quart
being made Florida tomatoes have
dropped FIVE cents a box from the
price quoted last week.

The absence of Argentine beef on
the local meat stands is one of the
most noticeable things about this de-
partment, When the tariff on meat
was taken off cargoes of this beef
was admitted to this country, and it
was on sale at every meat stand.
Housewives bought 1t, principally be-
cause it was considerably cheaper
than American beef. Now, instead of
housewives buying it, the meat is
being bought up by the hotels, who
can keep it frozen, and whose patrons
find it quite as satisfactory as the
local beef. Meat prices for the week
are only slightly changed over last
