"YOU TOLD ME THE TRUTH AND I WANT THE PEOPLE TO KNOW IT"

The following unsolicited letter he* been received from Mr. J. F. Ward of Donalda, Alberta. It Is a plain statement of conditions as Mr. Ward has found them: r —. ■ A Settlers U re I drop a line to Plain Letter. y OU- We had a good year. Oft of 66 acres, oats and wheat, I got over 2,600 bushels of wheat and oats. Oats went herb from 60 to 100 bushels per acre, and wheat from 25 to 62 per acre. Just see me being here one year and have over 700 bushels of wheat It is now over |I.OO per bushel. Oats is 42 cents, and going up. You told me the truth, and I want the people of Toledo to know it Hogs are 8% cents; cattle are high. Canada is good enough for me. I have 6 good horses. I sold 2 good colts, 2 cows and 18 head of hogs and killed 2. I have 6 hogs left I got 400 bushels of potatoes off an acre and a good garden last summer, fine celery and good onions. One neighbor had over 1,200 bushels of wheat,-and sold over S7OO of bogs and 2,000 bushels of oats. This Is a great country, If you should tell the people of Toledo of this it would get some of them thinking.'The soil Is a rich black loam, and a pleasure to work It.

“We have a good farm. We have a flowing well with soft water. It Is the best water in the country. Some people think they got to go to war when they come out here. They need not be afraid of war. There is no war tax on land; only’school tax, $12.00 on 160 acres, and road tax of two days with your team. I* tell you the truth, there Is no land In or around Toledo as good as our land here in Alberta. If anybody wants to write us, give them our address. “We have had nice weather. We have had it quite cold for one week, but no rain and sleet, and the sun shines nearly every day, and it Is hot in the sun. Coal is $2.25 per ton. The people are very nice and good here. We are well enjoying the West. The horses and cows are feeding on the prairies all the winter. We Just have two horses In the stable to go to town with. Yours truly, (Sgd.) J. F. WARD, Donalda, Alberta, Feb. 9,1916.” i —i “I was bom In Statement of Steve wlßCO nsin, but Schweltzberqer moved with my parents when a boy to Stephen Co., lowa. I was there farming for 60 years. I sold my land there for over S2OO an acre. I moved to Saskatchewan, and located near Briercrest in the spring of 1912. I bought a half section of land. I have good neighbors. I feel quite at home here the same as In lowa. We have perfect safety and no trouble in living up to the laws in force. My taxes are about $65 a year on the half section for everything. I have had splendid crops. Wheat in 1915 yielded me over 60 bushels to the acre. That is more than I have ever had In lowa, and yet the land there costs four times as much as it does here. The man who comes here now and buys land at SSO an acre or less gets a bargain. (Sgd.) S. Schweitsberger, February 9th, 1916.’ Advertisement.

MAKING MEAT TENDER

HOW THE INEXPENSIVE CUTS MAY BE EMPLOYED. Pounding Flour Into Them Is Recommended at One Method—Chopping Fine Is Another Excellent Way of Improving Them. When the housekeeper attempts to reduce her meat bill by usihg the less expensive cuts she has two difficulties to contend with —toughness and lack of flavor. Pounding meat before cooking is an old-fashioned method of making it tender, but while this process breaks down the tough tissues it also releases the Juices, driving them out, and with them the flavor. A good way is to pound flour into the meat. This catches and holds the Juices. A very palatable and economical dish can be made from a round steak as follows: Pound flour into both sides of the steak, as much as the meat will take up. Fry In drippings or other fat in an ordinary pan of kettle, then add water to cover it Cover the vessel tightly, so that no steam can escape and allow the meat; to simmer very gently for two hours. It is then ready to serve, the gravy being already thickened by the flour beaten into the steak. This gravy is delicious and far superior to the kind made in the ordinary way after the meat is cooked. Another very tasty dish is Spanish beefsteak. Take a piece of round steak weighing two pounds and about an inch thick. Pound until thin, season with salt and cayenne pepper, cover with a layer of bacon or salt pork sliced, roll and tie with a cord, place in a covered baking dish. Pour around it half a cupful each of milk and water. Cook two hours, basting occasionally.

Chopping meat is one of the principal methods of making tough and inexpensive meat tender. Chopped meats have another advantage, in that they may be cooked quickly and economically. Chopped raw meat of almost any kind can be very quickly made into a savory dish by cooking it with water or with water and milk for a short time, then thickening with butter and flour, and adding different seasoning as preferred, either pepper and salt alone or onion juice, celery, or tomato. Such a dish may be made to go further by serving it on slices of toast or surrounded by a wall of rice or macaroni. In broiling chopped meat successfully the point is to sear the surface very quickly so that the juices may be kept in, and then to allow the heat to penetrate to the inside until the whole mass is cooked to the taste of the family. To begin with, the broiler should he well greased. Otherwise the cakes or balls may be broken when removing them from the broiler. They should be heated on both sides more quickly than a steak, because the chopping has allowed the juice to escape and the openings should be sealed as quickly as possible. Hamburg stdak is made from inexpensive bits of beef chopped, seasoned a little, and shaped into flat cakes or steaks. If possible the chopping should he done at home, so that the meat may be cooked at once. Some housekeepers think Hamburg steak is improved by mixing the meat with a little milk before cooking.

Somerset Sandwiches.

These sandwiches are a little, odd: One-half cupful scalded milk, one-half cupful boiling water, one-half tablespoonful butter, two tablespoonfuls molasses, a teaspoonful salt, one-half yeast cake, dissolved In two tablespoonfuls lukewarm water, one-half cupful white flour and enough entire wheat flour to knead, one cupful English walnut meats broken into pieces. Of course make your bread same as any bread, the night before. Let rise and in morning knead in nut meats after first raising; put in pans, raise and bake as any bread; after 24 hours old slice thin as possible, spread sparingly and evenly with creamed butter and put orange marmalade between slices.

Jam Omelet.

One tablespoonful powdered sugar, one teaspoonful cornstarch, three tablespoonfuls milk, strawberry jam, five eggs. Beat yolks of the eggs light with the powdered sugar, into this stir the cornstarch dissolved in the milk. Then fold in the stiffly beaten whites. Cook in a buttered frying pan until set; spread with jam; fold and serve as a dessert. —Mother’s Magazine.

Lemon Apple Pie.

Take two large tablespoonfuls of cornstarch, dissolve it in cold water to a smooth paste, pour on one-half pint of boiling water anjJ stir until It thickens. Remove from the fire and add one cupful of sugar, two apples grated, juice, rind of one lemon and a ( teaspoonful of butter. Bake in two crusts. Will make two medium-sized plea.

SONE WESTERN CANAIM GRAIN REPORTS

In its issue of February 24th, 1916, the Wadena (Minn.) Pioneer Journal has the following Oats letter from West--115 Bushels era Canada written Per Acre. by Walter Gloedeu, his subscription to his home paper: “The times we are having up here are very good in spite of the war. I have had very good crops this fall and we are having very good markets for It all. Wheat went from 30 to 60 bu. to the acre, oats from 60 to 100 bu. to the acre. I had an 18-acre field of oats.which yielded-me 115 bu. par-acre by machine measure, so I think this Is a pretty prosperous country. I have purchased another quarter section, which makes me now the owner of three-quarters of a section of land. The weather was very nice this fall up to Christmas, then we had quite severe weather, but at the present time it is very nice again.” f . “I lived many years in Alberta; filed a homestead in the Edmonton district; ______ own property in One of the several parts of AlBest Countries berta. I found H I Ever Saw. one of the best —I countries I ever saw; its banking system is better than that of the United States; one quarter section I own, with about $4,000.00 worth of improvements, pays SIB.OO a year taxes. All tax is on the land; implements and personals are not taxed. I was secretary-treasurer of Aspelund school district for two years. My duties were to assess all the land in the district, collect the tax, expend it (sl,* 000.00 a year), hire a teacher, etc., for the sum of $25.00 a year. Some economy, eh! > “All school and road taxes are expended in the districts where tney are collected. There are no other taxes. Land titles are guaranteed by tbe government and an abstract costs fifty cents. Half of the population of Alberta are Americans or from Eastern Canada. (Sgd.) WILL TRUCKENMILLER.” Advertisement

TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH KIDNEYS IF BACK HURTS Says Too Much Meat Forms Uric Acid Which Clogs the Kidneys and Irritates the Bladder.

Hot Water Each Morning Puts Roses in Your Cheeks

To look one's best and feel one’s best is to enjoy an inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous day’s waste, sour fermentations and poisonous toxlnß before it is absorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in the alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are intended to suck in only nourishment to sustain the body. If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom In your cheeks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a harmless means of washing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract.

I suffered from backache, weak back, rheumatism, and could not control the excretion of the kidneys. I can safely say that "Anuric," the new discovery of Dr. Pierce, of Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N.
