the greatest care should be given to
the regulation Of the heat. The tenn
perature in the drier rises rather
quickly and the product may scorch
unless close attention Is given. The
reason sun drying Is popularity be-
neved to give fruits and vegetables
q sweeter favor lies probably In the
fact that in the sun they never are
scorched, whereas in the oven or over
a stove scorching IL likely to occur
unless careful attention is given them.
Drying Of certain products can be
completed in some driers within two
or three hours. The time required for
drying vegetables varies. However, 1t
can be determined easily by little
experience on the part Of the person
doing the drying. The material should
be stirred or turned several times dur
ing the drying in order to secure
uniform product.
The ability to Judge accurately as
to when fruit has reached the proper
condition for removal from drier can
be gained only by experience. When
sufficiently dried it should be so dry
that it is impossible to press water
out of the freshly cut ends of the
pieces, and will not show any Of the
natural grain Of the fruit on being

"There followeth after me today

To a fair-haired youth may a pitfall be;
He. too. must cross in the twilight dim.
The Boy Scout movement has built for

w. G. Quaif.
The Boy Scout movement means
honorable citizenship, character and
efficiency. 1t means men, physically
strong, mentally awake and morally
straight. This is the fundamental need
of our country today. The whole move
ment Is much broader than the concep-
ton some have of 1t. 1t is natures
way Of bringing about the things that
the church, home and school are striv-
Ing for.
The Boy Scout movement is not DOM
mated by n class spirit, and 1t Is not
mere boys club. 1t has no barriers
Of cast, wealth and sect, and because
Of its democratic spirit 1t is here to-
stay. 1t is not fad and it is not an
accident. Owing to the intrinsic merits
of the movement, 1t is bound to live.
First, the boy likes 1t. 1t appeals
to his manhood and to his sense of ro-
nance and adventure it gives him self
respect and respect of others; it is
challenge to the sturdy elements of his
character which he cannot reject.
Second, It is school of training and
development he cannot receive other
wise. There Is an undeniable discip-
line in it which the boy needs. 1t
trains his sense of honor and con-
seriousness for service. In being Boy
Scout he will be a better boy and a
better man.
The movement is the keynote to
true American preparedness, and Is
worth the emulation of every man and
woman in the United States for every
boys home training is strengthened by
the scout organization.
The bird leaves its nest before 1t
can fly; the cub must leave its den in
order to become the king of the jun
giles, so must the boy mingle with his
fellows, under proper leadership, be-
fore he can develop the strongest
character. 1t is Boy Scouts business
to help to save; but 1t may be added
that If the need should arise, the train
ing Boy Scout receives will help
him when he Is a man to be a good
defender of the country and one who
will be 100 per cent physically strong
and mentally awake.

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

Reports are to hand that there will
be large influx of settlers from the
United States into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring. For time
there has been falling off, on account
of the fenr of ConScription, 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 1t 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 affected.
The excellent yields OF the Western
Canada crops. and the high prices Sc
cured Is having its 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
the ears of the man looking for n farm
When he hears that G.. II. Beatty Of
Nanton, Alberta, had 60 bushels of
wheat from IL acres or an average Of
56i2 bushels to the acre, he becomes
interested. When he learns that Sid
ney f. Phillips of BcddcfOrd, Alberta,
threShcd ten hundred and ffty-thrce
bushels of wheat. the average being
52h bushels per acre. his interest is
further aroused. ThOS. Long of Lcth-
bridge had 100 bushels of oats to the
AL g
Quinn of Milk River had G.O9i bushels
of wheat from 100 acres, an average
of GO bushels per acre. and Robert
Tackaherry of Noblcford makes aflida-
Wit that he had an average of seventy
six bushels of wheat per acre from n
field Of 1868 acres. Thos. Boulton of the
same place makes affidavit that from
fifty acres he had 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 rs evidence of what the
strengthened by paragraph stating
that he had 100 bushels and 30 lbs. per
acre from 39I.G9 acres. Mrs. Nancy
Coe makes Affidavit that on her farm
ut Noblcford she thrcshcd six thou
sand one hundred and ten bushels OF
wheat from one hundred and fifteen
acres, or fifty-threc bushels and eight
lbs. per ncre, and from flax field
(stubble field she got 20 bushels and
3S pounds per acre.
1t cannot be said that these were
freak yields because so many had such
great success. When these reports are
rend, the man looking for farm be-
comes convinced.
These are only n few OF the reasons
that will cause large influx of Amer
lean farmers into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring.
The farmers now resident in Mani

purchasing additional lands. Prices
are low and Free homestead land can

TO FIGHT BATTLE OF
GETTYSBURG OVER AGAIN

CHICAGO, March 15.-The Battle OF
Gettysburg soon will be fought over
again in all its intricate detail he:e
on Chicago soil.
Again in forced marches the invad-
crs will come from the Southland in
the persons of a picked team of the
Washington, ID. c., High school cadets,
to meet the Chicago Cadets in the new
war game.
The battle will be fought on minia-
ture battlefield, twenty feet square. Red
and blue pegs, the opposing armies,
will sway gack and forth over the can :
vas until the United States army Off
Ger judges award the victory to one or
the other faction.
Captain E. z. Steever, assigned by
the war department to organize high
school boys of the middle west into
military units, has been here several
weeks preparing his team for the
contest. 1t will be the first inter-city
war game contest ever played by the
cadets.
