ArthurS was now bring ing his young wife to share with him the privations and the privileges of their new home, X friendship had al. ready sprung up hetween Mrs. ArthurS and Mrs. Harris, and nothing seemed more appropriate than that inc two women should occupy the house to- gether while Harris sought out new homestead land and Arthurs proceed- ed with the development of his farm

McCrae made them pack hay in the bottom of the sleigh boxes. and over this were laid robes and blankets, on which the immigrants sat as thickly as they could be placed. More robes and blankets were laid on top, and sacks stuffed very full of hay served the double purpose of cush- ioning their backs and conveying fod- der for the animals.

 He shot keen look into her face She returned his gaze frankly, and he found sarcasm neither in her eyes nor her voice.

F Al2M AZ ANIMALS
CLEAN PENS ARE IMPORTANT
Development and Perpetuation of Roundworms Is Fostered by
 Manure Covered Lots.

Investigations reported in recent technical publication of the bureau of animal industry, United States depart ment of agriculture. disclosed addi- tional evidence of the importance of keeping young pigs in clean pens that nave not been contaminated by other swine.
 A roundWorm of pigs, known as AscariS Suum, is held responsible not only for many deaths among swine, but for a large proportion of the runts among these animals. Development and perpetuation of the roundworms is fostered by badly drained and manure covered hog lots, which are on this ac- count dangerous to young pigs and not good for pigs of any age.
 Eggs of the parasite may remain alive in soil for five years and even longer. Places occupied by pigs har- boring the adult worms in their intes- tines will become badly infested with the eggs Pigs farroWed and kept in such places are certain to pick up many of these eggs, and even suck ling pigs are liable to swallow eggs present in dirt adhering to the teats of the SOW.
 InveStisations by the bureau have proved that after the eggs have bee . swallowed and have matched in the in teStine the young worms do not imme- diately settle down but penetrate the wall of the intestine and travel to the liver and the lungs. From the lungs they crawl up the windplPe and then down the esophagpS and return to the intestine only after they nave passed through the lungs do they establish themselves in the intestine and grow to maturity.
 In passing through the lungs the young worms cause more or less dam age to these organs. Pneumonia may result and the animal may die about q week or ten days after infection. Symptoms of this pneumonia among pigs are commonly known as "thumps" Not all cases of ''thumpS' come from this source, but the worms are frequently the cause. Young pigs are more susceptible than older pigs to infection, and are also more likely to suffer severely from migration of the young worms through the lungs.

For the sake of the brave man who sat at her side guiding his team in the deepening darkness: for the sake of the new home that they two should build some where over the horizon for the sake of the civilization that was to be plant ed, of the nation that must arise, of the manhood and womanhood of to- morrow--she would be brave.

WOMEN TAKING TO MONoCLE
Single Eyeslass Rapidly Becoming

than wear pince-nez fitted with one
plain glass for the good eye. they pre-

figurement. They all chose those fit

1T requires the confidence born of long
experience to wear monocle without
guard.
"After all, why should the monocle
be masculine glass only? 1t is a
mistake for some people to regard it
as only facial decoration for dudes
and politicians. Where only one eye
is defective a superfluous glass is a

DRAW MILLIONS FROM LAND
Immense Wealth Accruine to Fortu-

of London, England.

The most elaborate and the largest
map In the world is the valuation"
map of the city Of London, which was
some twenty years in the making, and
which is more than thirty feet wide
and twenty feet from top to bottom.
The map is of the metropolitan dis
trict of London, embracing an area of
ll5 square miles, and every house,
shop and piece of property In that
area is shown. Nearly 10000 separate
estates are listed.
Some curious and interesting facts
about London landlords are shown by
the great map. The wealthiest estate
is that of the duke of Westminster,
400 acres, with a rent roll of SIS, OOO,-
OOO per year. This is not by any means
the largest estate in London, however,
though its location makes it the most
valuable In South London is one es.
tate which covers four square miles,
and there are several exceeding two
square miles. Lord Howard de Wal
den's estate brings in rents to the
amount of S1O,000,0O0 per annum, and
the 250 acres belonging to the duke of
Bedford rent for S1O,50O,OOO per year.
Lord Northampton, the duke of Nor:
folk; Lord Portman and Earl Cadogan
each own around 200 acres of city
property, and their rents run from
about s5,oooooo to ss0oo,ooo per year
each. Not a bad idea to let a city like
London grow up around ones farm.
