FARMER'S GREAT OPPORTUNITY

Demand for Canadian Cattle After the War.

The opportunities that Western Can-, ada offers to the farmer have time and again been placed before the public through these columns. The cheap price at which the very best lands can be purchased, and the advantage that 1b to be had In securing one of the free homesteads of 160 acres has appealed to a great many, and they have embraced them. Many, In fact most of those who have done so are today giving testimony to the good fortune and the timely forethought that led them to go to Western Canada, and embark In an era of farming that has placed them away beyond the plncn of want and given them reason to look Into the future with a hopefulness that they had not had the courage In the past to forecast. Not only have they beep able to secure good lands at low prices Bnd on easy terms but If they desire they have been able to add to this 160 acres of land free, on conditions that are easy. A resident In the Lloydminster district In Saskatchewan who had been farming In the States for some time, took up a homestead in 1910, and commenced breaking with 4 oxen. Two years ago he bought an adjoining quarter section and now has over 100 acres under cultivation. He says, “As my circumstances improved, I sold the oxen and now have six head of horses, twelve head of cattle, and have always a bunch of hogs on hand. “On an average 1 have had yields of 26 bushels of wheat, 65 bushels of oats, and 40 bushels of barley .to the acre, and last season from a field of 28% acres. I threshed 1,040 bushels of wheat. I have made a success of mixed farming and would have no hesitation In advising all who contemplate making a new home to come to this district. I sell cream to the Government Creamery here, and find at all times a good market for live stock and other produce.” This is but a modest statement of what a modest man can do in Western Canada, and could be repeated of hundreds of others. Scores of peases could be recited where much more has been accomplished, and it is believed that with moderate investment at the present time, the cattle industry of Western Canada will pay large Interest The Minister of Agriculture of Saskatchewan, in a recent address, ventured the prediction that the Saskatchewan farmer who developed his land along the lines of general stock breeding would make much more money and find a far bigger return for bis efforts In ten years’ time than the man who devoted his energies purely and primarily to grain raising. This was the coming golden age of opportunity for the stockman and it was up to the Saskatchewan man to get in on the ground floor and prepare himself for the coming demand. The close of the war would undoubt edly see a great demand for live stock In JEurope and it was only reasonable

to suppose that this demand would have to be filled almost wholly by American stockmen, both In Canada and the United States. Europe was slowly draining Its rural districts not only of its beef and dairy animals but was also using the finer breeding animals and the end of the war would see a condition of affairs which would render necessary almost the repopulation of the domestic animal kingdom in that continent. The opportunity of Western Canadian stockmen, therefore, lay In being prepared for this demand when it arose. In view of these facts which must be patent to every student of economic conditions as related to the stock Industry, he hoped to see within the next three years the stock raising industry in Saskatchewan given an im mense impetus forward, which would put it in the forefront of the producing provinces of the Dominion. —Advertisement.

KEEPS MILK COOL

DEVICE WILL BE APPRECIATED ON HOT BUMMER DAYB. At Bmall Cost a "Refrigerator” May Be Constructed That Will Contribute Greatly to the Comfort of the Entire Family.

A companion convenience to the fireless cooker for the hot summer days is the iceless refrigerator, or milk cooler. Make a screened case 3% feet high with the other dimensions 12 by 15 inches. If a solid top is used, simply place the water pan on this. Otherwise fit the pan closely into the opening of the top frame and support it by one-inch cleats fastened to the inside of the frame. Place two movable shelves in the frame, 12 to 15 inches apart. Use a biscuit pan 12 inches square on the top to hold the water, and where the refrigerator is to be used indoors have the whole thing standing in a large pan to catch any

Iceless Refrigerator.

drip. The pans and case may be painted white, allowed to dry, and then enameled. A covering of white canton flannel should be made to fit the frame. Have the smooth side out and button the covering on the frame with buggy and automobile curtain hooks and eyes, arranged so that the door may be opened without unfastening these hooks. This can be done by putting one row of hooks on the edge of the door near the latch and the other Just opposite the opening with the hem on each side extended far enough to cover the crack at the edge of the door, so as to keep out the outside air and retain the cooled air. This dress or covering will have to be hooked around the top edge also. Two double strips one-half the width of each side should be sewed on the top of each side and allowed to extend over about 2% or 3 Inches In the pan of water. The bottom of the covering should extend to the lower edge of the case. Place the refrigerator In a shady place where air will circulate around it freely.—Cleveland Leader.

Stuffed Flank.

Four or five pounds of flask (that part that contains the steak, but do not remove steak). Have butcher cut a pocket in for a dressing. Use a loaf of stale bread or more, if necessary, one-half pint of milk (water can be used or milk and water), one teaspoonful celery salt, two or three onions, small bunch parsley, and about three level tablespoonfuls of butter (melted), salt and pepper to taste. Fill in pocket, but do not pack tight, and close any openings. Bake in a moderate oven, basting frequently. 4. gravy can be made after it is roasted. A good, tender flank only takes about one and a half or not over two hours.

Split Pea Soup With Bone.

Wash one pint of split peas in cold water and drain. Add an onion quartered, with three cloves stuck in each quarter and a little sprig, each of parsley, celery and a bay leaf. If you have mo celery, use celery salt. As soon as the contents of the kettle reach a good boil, push back on the fire and simmer three or four hours with a ham bone or bacon rind, until the peas are tender. The fireless cooker Is a good place for this overnight. When ready to use, press through a coarse colander, season with pepper and salt, heat and serve with croutons. —Ladies’ World.

Omelet of Herbs.

“Omelette aux fines herbes” is to be had at every wayside Inn In the most remote corner of sunny France. Parsley, thyme and sweet marjoram are mixed and rubbed together for the flavoring, according to taste. An omelet “Jardiniere” is two tablespoonfuls of mixed parsley, onion, chives, shallots and a few leaves each of sorrel and chevril, minced fine and stirred into the beaten eggs before cooking. These omelets require a little more butter for frying than the plain omelet.

Celery and Carrots.

801 l a few diced carrots until tender, adding salt Vhen nearly done. Then take an equal quantity of boiled celery cut in small pieces. Mix and add one cupful each of flour and butter rubbed smooth, salt and pepper to taste. Boil for five minutes, stirring constantly. The dish should be served as soon as ready.

Taxicab Driver Senses Danger.

A London taxicab driver, rejected for the army on account of defective eyesight, was re-examined recently, the London Globe says. “How do you manage to drive your cab at night?” the officer asked. “It’s like this,” he replied. “If we hear a smash we know we have hit something, and If we don’f we know it’s all right.” He was remanded to Scotland Yard for further examination.

Better Than War.

“The whole world is preparing tor war,” said William Jennings Bryan at a pacifist dinner. “I know a man in Miami whose good lady suddenly went In for spiritualism. Did he declare war? No; be did not He did better. “Instead of declaring war, the Miami man took to accompanying hi* wife to all her spiritualistic seances, and at every seance he got the handsome medium to procure him message* from his first wife, who was dead — and, ah, such tender, such loving messages as they were! “By this method the Miami man soon put an end to the spiritualitic idea in his household.”
