u Already Started.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE Nebraska
state legislature ratified the 18th
amendment to the federal Constttu.
ton prohibiting the manufacture, sale.
transportation and importation Of In
toxicating liquors for beverage pur.
poses in the United States or any
Of its territories.
Nebraska was the Seth state to rati-
~ the amendment, completing the roll
Of three-fourths Of all the states re-
Quired to change the constitution.
Missouri was the 37th state to COM
plete ratification, acting only a few
minutes after Nebraska had registered
its will.
The eleven other states whose legis.
latures have not yet voted on the
amendment are Minnesota, Wisconsin,
New Mexico, Nevada, New Jersey,
New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania,
Rhode Island, Vermont and Wyoming.
Effective In Ono Year.
The new amendment becomes effect
i've one year from it's ratification. It
will take the first SO states several
more days to certify their ratification
to the federal government. This means
the amendment will go into effect
late In January. 1920. Meanwhile con-
gress and the states are expected to
enact legislation providing for the en-
forcement Of the amendment and fix
ing penalties for it's violation.
Drouth Starts July l.
While the federal amendment does
not take effect until January, 1920, the
country will really go dry forever July
/, 1919, when the wartime prohibition
act becomes operative. This act in
all likelihood will remain in effect until
the permanent drouth begins in jan
uary.
Plan Flight In Courts.
The sole hope of the vets lies in
court action. In this city Levy Mayer
chief counsel for the distillers, an
nounced plans for contrasting the va
lidity of the ratification in % states in
which state constitutions require a ref.
erendum vote on proposed federal con-
stitutional amendments. In response,
dry leaders in Washington quoted Ar
ticle V of the federal constitution as
specifying that amendments must be
acted upon by either the state legisla.
lures or state constitutional conven-
lions. This, they commended, invali-
dates the referendum requirement in
the 20 states cited by Mr.. Mayer.
Ratified In 13 Months.
It took the drys 100 years to get the
national prohibitory amendment sub
mitted by congress to the several
states.
Once It was submitted, It took the
legislatures Of the necessary 36 states
just one year and one month lacking
one day. to ratify the amendment.

dustrial life"-John Gay.

There are thousands today looking
for farms to. buy, and with the hum
dreds Of thousands Of acres offered for
sale, there is no lack Of opportunities.
But there are all classes Of lands. good,
bad, and Indifferent, much Of each.
The government of the Dominion Of
Canada has no land for sale, but with.
in the boundaries Of the Dominion
there are unlimited acres of choice
land owned by railway and land COM
panies and private individuals. It
holds no brief for any, nor are any
Of them clients. But it is to the In
terest Of the Dominion to have the hum
dreds Of thousands Of acres placed un.
der cultivation, for every acre thus cul-
tivated adds to the revenue which helps
pay the government Of the country. Il
Is with the purpose Of setting forth
the agricultural advantages that Can.
ada, especially Western Canada, DOS.
sesses, that attention is drawn to the
fact. The purpose is to place before
the reader truthful statements, and
advise the prospective settler as to
the necessity to investigate and In.
spect, leaving to his own deduction the
matter Of his selection. Once he de.
cides, the government will render him
any further information necessary as
to location, prices and value of land,
and assist him in every way possible to
become settled.
The cost Of trip to Western Cam
ada, to any portion Of the three prov
inces-Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta-specially indicated in this
work, is but a trifle compared with the
benefits that q personal inspection may
give. Therefore the advice is to do
so. Low rates on railways will be ar
ranged and every opportunity afforded
for giving the country thorough and
careful examination. It may be that
you wish an improved farm, all ready
for occupation and cultivation; you
may want raw prairie, which only re-
quires blowing and the other prepare
ton necessary for seed bed, leaving
1t to yourself to erect your buildings,
sink your well, prepare your garden,
and ascertain how close you are to
school. church, town and market. You
may wish to go into mixed farming,
combining the raising Of stock witA the
growing Of grain. In this case you
will look out for some shelter from
sun, wind and storm, and want a farm
a portion Of which may be cultivated
for grain, and pasture fields connected
with 1t. You may make this out Of the
open level prairie, but you will do bet
ter to secure partially wooded lot,
where water and pasture are already
at hand. You may wish to go into the
raising Of cattle, or sheep alone; then
you will care less for the open prairie.
but select something that may cost you
less in the more northerly districts.
No matter what you may want, unless
it be land upon which to grow cotton,
bananas or other tropical or semi.trop-
ical products, your inspection trip win
reveal to you that Western Canada pos
sesses possibilities beyond which any
literature you may read advises you
