PLEASED WITH ALBERTA

An Excellent Report from Wiaconaiu / ' and Minnesota Delegatee. The opinion of five delegatee from Minnesota and Wisconsin, published by the Edmonton Bulletin 'over their names, Is very complimentary to Northern Alberta. The report says: “We must say with all sincerity that driving all over the country for six days, we have not found one settler who was not more than pleased with the country and its productions, and will not return to the land he left. We have seen people here from all parts of the States and all doing well. We met a Dakota farmer by the name of McLean, who has informed us that be has raised more grain here in three years than he did in thirteen where he came from, on half as much ground. We have seen a number of others, both men and women, and all speak In the same strain about Alberta. They all look well and contented; even the children are Ijappy. In our drive over the country, in passing the countless school bouses we cQUId only see happiness in the faces of the little ones. We noted them all well dressed, equal, if not better, than the same class of children in the State of Minnesota. “The wheat that Is raised here is just bexutiful, the kerne) full and plump, and may well be termed golden grain, yielding 30 to 55 bushels to the acre. This statement is not from one farmer, but from hundreds who tell the same tale. Oats yield from 70 to 100 bushels to the acre, barley from 40 to 60 bushels and potatoes from 300 to 400 bushels to the acre. “We have taken particular notice of the climate In regard to the difference between this country and our own. When we left Ada. Minnesota, we were in the midst of a real Dakota blizzard. When we arrived at Edmonton we found the people on the streets still wearing summer clothing, no mittens on their hands and far less use for them. The country is simply more than we ever dreamed of. The printed matter sent out by the Government does not half tell of the grand country in Alberta, open for millions of people to make Tieautiful homes for themselves. Too much cannot be said in praise. It is all and more than the greatest eulogist ever thought of giving to the publie. “We saw cattle and horses in herds grazing on the prairie like in summer time, all sleek and fat. We were informed by several farmers that most of the stock run out all winter. We also found the market extra good here for beef and pork. Hogs fetch 4%c live weight. A 3-year-old steer will bring from S4O to $45 right from the prairie. Coal and wood are here in abundance. Coal is sold in the town of Edmonton for $2 per ton and farmers can secure coal at the mines ’hemselves for 75c per load. “Before closing we say to you one and all, come to Alberta, where there are homes for millions and a promise for something to lay by for an old age. We are well satisfied with this country and as evidence have each bought a half section of C. P. R. land in township 55, range 21 west of the fourth initial meridian, and will return next spring to reside. “Hoping this may be of some benefit to the overburdened farmers of the United States.” Setft by Floyd Dean, son of E. S. Dean of Deanville, Mich., who is now in Alberta, and has taken up 160 acres there.

The Population of Rome.

Under the emperors the population of Rome is said to have been as high as 8,000,000. including slaves. In 1377 it waa reduced to 17,000. The present population is just 500,000, and at the present rate of increase the million mark will be reached in 1950. A Dorn in Time Bara* Nine of Hnle’e Hone, of Horohoand and Tar for ooaahs.

SCHOOLS SCHOLARS

Reboot Hygiene. G. Stanley Hall has the right idea concerning school education. He teE* us that “the great danger in our school, arises from imperfect health. It ha* become the custom in some countries that some of the best and most progressive city wards provide doctors to examine every child in the lower paha of the schools. This doctor examines the child’s complexion, eyes, muscles, and as to appetite, etc., and gives directions according to the needs of the case. For myself, I say, ‘what shall it profit a child if it gain the whole world of knowledge, and lose its own health? Or what shall a child give in exchange for Its health? We have forgotten that children cannot sit still, yet it is one of the commands that resound in the school-room from morning till night. We have found that the idea that children can sit still must be abandoned, and teachers must learn to possess their nerves and patience If the children do not sit still. We all live for Hfe. There Is nothing so good as being alive.”— Journal of Hygiene. - Where Io the College-Made Maa? Andrew Carnegie having recently asked: “Where is the college made man?” the Superintendent of Schools in Sioux City. lowa, has directed a systematic search for the missing individual, with no little success. A canvass of the leading men in the following named professions and occupations in toe principal towns of lowa gave these results, which are published in the Educational Review for March: Whole number College Per Profession, canvassed. bred. cent. Ministers 67 60 90 Teachers 65 55 85 Lawyers 78 53 68 Doctors.Bs 52 60 Bankers 66 26 40 Editors 53 16 30 Merchants and manufacturers .119 31 26 —Philadelphia Record. The School Grounds. It will not be difficult to educate school boys to respect flower-borders, window-boxes, vines, and shrubbery, if teachers themselves will display intelligent interest and affection for the school grounds. When these are of considerable size a great educational field can be opened by teachers who know something of botany, plantgrowth, and forestry. Such surroundings can be employed to the highest advantage in cultivating in children observation, and in imparting elementary ideas of natural science. How many teachers are there who care for these things or are qualified to instruct children in the laws of plant-growth? We apprehend that there are comparatively few who do not need an elementary education in botany and forestry. The beginning of this educational reform really lies with the teachers themselves.—New York Tribune. Praise for American Schools. Dr. Krohn, a prominent educator, a graduate of Yale and who has studied in France, Germany, Austria, Italy and England, says that he is firmly convinced that the system of public schools in this country is far in advance of all other nations, but that our system has too much forcing, and unless much care Is exercised in that regard it will tell on the children. He further says that precocity, unless carefully guarded and directed, is almost as dangerous as Imbecility.

Any Language but Her Own.

A writer on one of the newspapers published in an Eastern city lately overheard a conversation between two high-school girls. This, acording to his report, is what they were saying to each other: “What do you think I done to-day, Clara?” “Well, what did you do?” asked the other. “I translated four pages of French exercises. Wasn’t that fine?” “Fine? I should say so. I wish I had done as good as that. I only translated two.” It is unnecessary to comment on such a revelation of the English spoken by promising young students of French, except to say that it must be some one’s duty to teach them less French and more English. Sometimes we learn our own language the better for acquiring a knowedge of a foreign one, but that peculiar sort of philogical enlightenment comes only after we have acquired at least a fair speaking knowledge of our own tongue.

Expelling Foreigners.

Kaiser Wilhelm’s tactics of expHling foreigners from Germany are befog applied to Germans by some of his neighbors. Prof. Leo Mayer, for thirty-throe years professor of comparative philology at the University ot Dorpat, ta Livonia, has been dismissed and a Bassian appointed in his place.
