NEW YORK WANTS A CHANGE

GOES FROM DESK TO LAUNDRY
Stenographer Quits $12-a-Week Job
and Is Now Making Several Times
That Amount Washing Clothes.

In writing on economy ThOreau once
observed that mankind is apt to "con-
slider not what is truly respectable, but
what Is respected" Most young peo-
pie consider that it is a more respect
able occupation to sit at desk in an
Office than to tuke in washing A
highly Los Angeles girl
thought otherwise and proved her
point.
As a stenOgrapher she was earning
So week and, not satisfied with this
pay, she quit not only her job. but the
whole stenography business. She was
not afraid Of soapSuds or hard work
and she had an idea that It was better
to be prosperous laundress than an
;mpecunious stenographer. She con-
Quoted the business with brains and
efficiency and as a result is now max
ing Sos week without working longer
hours than she did at her desk. She
now merely does fancy work, expen-
sive and delicate fabrics for wealthy
people and the business grows. She
makes something more than a respect
able income.
There is a lesson here for any who
think any kind of honest work ia be-
meath them. To quote Thoreau again !:
THE life which men praise and regard
as successful is but one kind Why
should we exaggerate anyone kind at
the expense of the others ?"-Los An

GREAT DEMAND
FOR CANADIAN LAND
Americans Are Buyers and Be-
coming SettIerS-Anxious to
Get Cheap and Produc-
tive Land.

Reports are to hand that there viii
be a large influx Of settlers from the
United States into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring. For a time
there has been a falling off, on account
OF the fear of CONSUMPTION, which OF
course was not possible, and which the
Canadian Government gave every as
surance would not be put into opera
ton In any case It would not affect
the American settler, and more than
that the man who was working on the
farm, helping to produce the grain
that goes to feed those who are at war,
would not be ATE cted.
The excellet, yields Of the Western
Canada crops. and the high prices Sc
cured is having it's influence on those
looking for homes. The authenticated
reports that have been sent out from
time to time that this farmer and that
farmer had paid for their entire farm
holdings out of one crop has reached
IN ears Of the man looking for a farm.
Wien he hears that G. II. Beatty OF
Eanton. Alberta, had G79 bushels OF
wheat from u acres or an average OF
38l2 bushels TO the acre. he becomes
interested. When he learns that sid
ncy T. Phillips Of Bcddeford. Alberta.
thrcshed ten hundred and fifty.three
bushels Of wheat, the average being
62M bushels per acre, his interest Is
further aroused. Thos. Long Of Leth-
bridge had 800 bushels Of oats 10 the
acre from field OF q acres,' W.
Quinn OF MIX River had 6,094 bushels
OF wheat from 100 acres, an average
Of 80 bushels per acre, and Robert
Tackaberry Of NObleford makes aftida-
Wit that he had an average of seventy
six bushels Of wheat per acre from a
field OF 1868 acres. ThOs. Boulton OF the
same place makes affidavit that from
fifty acres he had n yield Of fifty-three
bushels OF wheat per acre. Newell J.
Mobiles affidavit Of getting "a bushels
per acre from 1000 acres stands out
most strongly as evidence OF what the
wheat grower can do. This affidavit is
strengthened by a paragraph stating
that he had l22 bushels and 30 lbs. per
acre from DbfpI utIeA. mIS. 4NdHtF
Coe makes affidavit that on her farm
at Nobleford she threshed six thou
sand one hundred and ten bushels Of
wheat from one hundred and fifteen
acres or fifty-three bushels and eight
lbs per acre. and from a flax field
tstubble held) she got 20 bushels and
~ pounds per acre.
II cannot be said that these were
freak Yields because so many had such
great success. When these reports are
read the man looking for farm be-
comes convinced
These are only few Of the reasons
that will cause large influx of Amer
team farmers into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring.
The farmers now resident ia Mani
toba. saskatchewan aud Alberta are
purchasing additional lands. Prices
are low and Free homestead land eau
be had in many districts ana the home
steadev Is welcome. Advertisement.
