WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in a highly
f1ourishing condition and is bound in
a very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
a great demand for that article, and
it's use abroad has given it a lot or
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
who, having used it, is quick to ap-
preciate its value. This means that
alter the war there will be demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. AS matter or
course the prices are high. and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money. ,.,
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt-
edly be maintained this season. West
crn Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making of cheese, the
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and in time it is bound to
become one of the finest cheese coun-
tries of the continent.
The lower foothills of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark.
The cool nights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is a great thing for
the industry, especially when COM
bined with possibilities Of cattle feed
such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one, and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof

packers and exporters, of Calgary, and

overhead cost of maintenance and
feed, these prices challenge compari'

ping away 1IOm III IdCI, LAOy
never knew they had a heart until
they are conscious of it's loss. 1t is
grand mistake for a man who has no
matrimonial intentions to fiatter girl
who takes his compliments seriously.
When he drifts away from her he takes
away with him all the sunshine of her
life. She believes in him, she has
faith that he will return to her despite
the fact that she never more sees or
hears from him. She wears her heart
and life out waiting patiently for him.
That is one of the cases which
commands our pity, even while we feel
like scolding the poor creature for her
want of good, common sense. She
could not fully grasp the truth of the
words, ITO love and not be loved is
time lost" though they hung constant
ly before her in letters of fire.
The woman who would seek redress
from other men because of her own
heart being cast OF by one of their
number is a person hard to reckon
with. If she develops into hardened
coquette-winning honest hearts mere
1y for the sport of seeing the men who
offer her their love suffer-she can
do incalculable harm in the world. A
firebrand is not more dangerous or
more to be feared. Many lives are
wrecked for the carelessness of one
man. The girl who goes from bad to
worse when she discovers her heart
has been cast off by the object of her
affections is the gravest example of
the fruits of mans Inconsistency. She
is reckless of all consequences. Her
faith in love is so fiercely shaken she
will not believe there is such tender,
beautiful sentiment in any mans
heart.
Where one cast-off heart keeps on
the even tenor of it's way and is none
the worse for misplaced hope, scores
are wrecked completely. In every
story of a woman's life which has
gone wrong there is usually to be
found a man who has deliberately won
her heart only to cast it aside like
broken toy. In all colleges and schools
where lectures are given now and then
on subjects it is supposed will be vital
Iy helpful to youth not word is ever
spoken on the grave dangers of win
ming hearts really unwanted and point
ing out what is likely to become of
these cast-off hearts.
Surely there is food for serious re-
Election on this very grave subject.
Let no man scott at this assertion.
Love steals into every home sooner or
later. Rightly understood and de-
velOped, it's natural course leads to the
altar, with marriage. Turned aside,
hearts drift aimlessly about. The
question is often raised whether or
not women who have been the victims
of cast-off affection can ever love
again. l make answer-they can and
do. The valuable lesson which they
have learned by that best of all teach
ers, experience, serves them well ever
after. They know true love from a
pretense of love and requite honest
affection with sincere appreciation and
q true, ideal love. To be loved by
good man at last is the salvation of
a cast-off heart. Who shall say that
they do not become good, noble wives
and the best of mothers?

A perusal1 Of the batting records
brings out popularity, 1t uncovers
the fact that the majority of the great
est sluggers the game has produced
have been right-handed hitters, yet the
bulk of high percentage hitters are left
handlers.
The left-handed batting stars for the
most part, are speedy afoot, the right
handlers are clumsy to an extreme.
most of the right handlers have been
big men; the left handlers run to the
diminutive on the average.
Old Cap Arson was right handler.
SO was Ed Delehanty, who could drive
a ball as far as any man in the game.
Lajoie and Wagner, the veterans, are
Starboard clouters. Cactus Cravath,
who damned the fences over and anon
last summer, is a right handler. Fred
Merkle, the long-distance bangor of the
Giants is a right handler; Piano Legs
Hickman, famous slugger of few
years ago, was a right-handed swinger.

hanty division. They hit the ball hard
and far-but it is their speed that en-
ables them to take unto themselves
each year a husky average.
WiIbert Robinson's Advice.
Wilbert Robinson, the brainy Dodger
leader, was asked eff youngster, as
piring to become a big Lacquer, asked
you from which side he would swing at
a ball, what would you tell him?"
Robinson, who has been in baseball
since 1882 answered: "My first advice
to him would be to swing from the
side in which he packed the most
shoulder power. That's the main es
sential in hitting. In cases where a
youngster has almost equal power in
his shoulders, would advise that he
bat left handed.

Younqster Felt Lonely.

On account of the crowded condition
of the street car, my small nephew and
l were obliged to take seats on oppo-
site sides of the aisle, says writer
in an exchange. His place was be-
tween two extremely we'll nourished
women, who, when they got off the
car together after riding few blocks,
left what must have seemed to my tiny
relative. a great space each side of
him. He aroused me from the news

Jack Miller was at bat and Umpire
KLEIN called a bad strike on him in a
game played in st. Louis last season,
Miller turned to Killifer, the Phila-
delphia catcher, and said:
"I was fishing yesterday"
Were you? Get anything?" replied
Killifer. <e
"You bet. Nice big string of catfish,
all with pop eyes and mouths block

homely as sim"
And Klein glared! 1t will be recalled
that Mr.. KLEIN has ostracized dozens
of athletes for daring to call him Cat
fish" But what could he do?

WOMEN CARE FOR HORSES
Scarcity Of Man Workers In England
Has Brought About a Peculiar
State Of Affain.

A notable example Of the u%tiliza-
ton of female labor in wartime is
afforded by three large military horse
depots at Reading.
There is not a single man ON any
of the stats, the work of attending
to the horses being done by gentle
women. Some of them have been
brought up in Australian and Cana
dian horse-ranches, but most Of them
are members of the South Berks and
other hunts. The depots are con-
valescent homes for army horses.
They have been organized by MI. Ce-
Gil Adm, the sporting artist and
a joint master of the South Berks
hunt.
The fifty ladies working at the
depots wear caps, short breeches, and
CATERS. They meet the horses at the
railway stations and do all that is
necessary for their comfort, duly dis
patching them from the railway sta
lions when they are restored to
health.-London Mail.
