MULE DRIVERS WANTED

The mule is such a peculiar animal
that IL requires an especial kind OF
man to manage him. The War De-
partment announces that there has
been no trouble in getting men who
can manage horses, but there is a
great deficiency of men who can man.
age mules. There are three classes
of these men needed, those who can
care for the mules; the mule packers
who are expert in packing mule
trains; and the pack masters, who
boss the job All three have been
urgently needed for the mule trains
of the engineers. The mule ex-
perts are natives of the section west
of the Rocky mountains, and before
all future needs are met recruit
ing campaign may be necessary in
the western states.
Any man who has travelled over
the plains in the early days knows
that putting a pack on a mule so that
it will stay, is a scientific job and
that II takes about as long to become
expert at il as to go through col
lege course. The mule trains are an
absolute necessity in the Engineer
Corps. There is nothing else that
will take the place of mule.
great many have been purchased in
Spain, but it is universally agreed
that there are none that will equal
the species known as the Missouri
mule. They are not only used fol
pack animals, but they have no equal
in hauling trains.

SOW RAPE TO INSURE PASTURE
Hot Summer When the Grass
Fails

"As much food value in rape as
in skim milk" says f. F. Ferrin of
the Animal Husbandry department
at Iowa State College. This gives
an approximation of the worth of
rape for hogs. Just as lettuce sat-
isfies the appetite of person in the
spring of the year, so rape suits "a
pig. 1t is succulent, about so per
cent moisture. crisp and tender. The
amount of high priced protein feed
necessary to make a balanced ration
is less on rape pasture than on blue
grass pasture. Also the grain nee
essary to make pound of gain is
less when pigs have rape than when
they have blue grass pasture. Most
pigs have the run of a blue grass
pasture. 1t is fine feed in the spring
when young and green, but about
as palatable as shavings when July
and August come With rape as a
supplement for blue grass pasture.
more pork can be made with the
same amount of grain. The pigs
will have palatable green feed thru
out the season instead of only during
the spring and fall. 1t is but an
odd job and a small amount of work
to SOW a patch of rape where the
pigs can be turned in; the results
will pay high interest on the propo-
sition

A NEW FORCE.

1t is becoming increasingly clear
that the Americans on the western
front in Europe are new factor in
the war in more ways than adding
numbers to the allied forces. When
our boys get into the game where
they have a chance to do business
they literally raise hades with the
Boches. They are adding not only
numbers but push. neo, courage. ini-
tiative, speed and ability TO kill
French and the British. Our Allies
seem to feel as proud Of the Ameri-
cans as We home folks and that is
certainly making it strong.
There is reason for this status.
Our men are fresh. They are we'll
cared for. There may be ground for
criticism of our war department in
some directions but we think it will
be generously conceded, or should be
at least. that our boys are well fed
and in other ways as well cared for
as is possible under the conditions
which surround them. They range
in age from IS to 81. Very likely
the majority of them are from 81 to
25 years of age. These men are the
product of democracy. Practically
all of them have been educated in
our free schools. They appreciate
America and her institutions. They
know the stake in this war They
know how long France and England
have held the lines. They want to
do their part and do it we'll The
only thing the Americans do not have
is the experience. This they are ac-
curing very rapidly.
Contrast these conditions with
those in the armies of our allies
France and England have been in the
war nearly four years. Their men
range in age from Is TO so. They
have men in the ranks very likely
beyond so years of age. These
troops have courage. They are good
fighters. Their records have not
been surpassed in any war in the his
tory. But they do not have the pep
and the dash of the younger and
fresher men from America. They
have not been reared in an atmos-
phere such as We have here. There
are fundamental physical reasons
for the difference between these
troops.
And there is no disposition to make
invidious comparisons. Talk with
men from the ranks and they will tell
you there is distinction between
Boches and the men in the allied
armies. Men for men the allies are
superior in practically every direc-
ton.
But surely Americans have reason
to feel a pride and an abiding conf
dence in the men who have gone over
seas to fight our battles for us and
for Civilizations They will make
good abundantly-if we sustain
them properly. This We must do
This we will do. We shall under no
circumstances tolerate stacking in
this country. We must put into our
work of contributing money in do
nations and the purchase of bonds
the same vim and energy and enthus-
iasm which the boys display in fight
ing the Boches.

Why Not An Irrigated Farm?

We believe the question in your mind
is not now, "Why an irrigated farm? but
"Why not an irrigated farm?" When it
is possible to get irrigated lands so favor
ably situated, at the low prices and on the
easy terms offered by this Company, the
alfalfa, with the accompanying dairy
and stock industry, and the proper rota-.
ton of crops; which offers you home in
a cOngenial, well-settled district, close to
a large and thriving city--a country of
splendid climate, good educational facili-
ties, rapid and cheap transportation, OPP
portunity of acquiring land at small cost
that will bring comfort and competence
to you and your family and will not be-
come exhausted but under propdr man
agement, will increase in fertility with
the passing years--does not this land meet
all your requirements for home.
Do not delay or put the matter off for
later consideration. 1t is not the policy
of the Canadian Pacific Railway to urge
undue haste or reckless action; we want
you to make very careful investigation
of what we have to offer You before you
decide, but we want you in your own III
terests, to begin that investigation at

IRRIGATED LANDS

ed to some such crop as sugar beets; then
two or three crops of grain are taken:
then back to alfalfa. A farm may be cul-
tivated in this way forever without losing
its virgin fertility.
Z. The irrigation farmer makes a
home His system of agriculture, rotat-
ing crops over period of years, means
that he is going to give his life to his pro
fession He is not in the business to mine
his soil for few years, get two or three
snap bumper crops, and move on, leaving
his farm weed-ridden and exhausted On
the contrary, every year his land becomes
more valuable, not for speculation, but for
actual production. Consequently there is
no purpose in leaving it. If, when he
buys farm, he plants on it some of the
trees which the Canadian Pacific Railway
Company furnishes free for the purpose,
he will in few years have fine groves
and shelter belts, which relieve the bare
ness of the prairie and give his farm a
homelike appearance. The shelter belts
allow him to grow small fruits in a
prOfusion that would not otherwise be
possible. With his dairy cows, his hogs.
sheep and poultry, his vegetables and
his fruit, he becomes as nearly independ-
ent as it is possible for any one to be UNI
der the conditions of modern civilization

who desire some financial assistance to-
ward making start. the Company has
mother policy equally liberal and remark
able--its Loans to Home makers Scheme.
Under this policy a loan to the home
maker in the form of improvements upon
the land he buys.
When the Company finds practical

ough knowledge of farm work, who has
the necessary horses and implements to
work a farm, or the money to buy them,
and who has sufficient capital to make
his first payment and provide for himself
and family for the first year, it is prepar
cd to assist such a man with loan. for the
purpose of providing a house and barn,
digging a well and fencing the land
The settler may select the type of house
and barn he desires from plans which are
furnished by the Company, which plans
are the result of many years. knowledge

quirements of the settler.
This loan is extended over period OF
twenty years, with interest at six percent
per annum. No security is required
other than the land itself and the first
payment on the land and loan, which is
made at the time and purchase.
Prices
The price of good irrigated land
ranges downward from $1,000 per acre.
In arriving at the price of farm allow
ance is made for any land which cannot
be irrigated, which is sold at a much lower
price Farms containing some irrigated
and some non-irrigated land can be had,
and this makes an excellent combination.
