Mr. Austin was a man who hs&l never had any previous experience in farming, but Western Canada had allurements, and he profited. lie Rot a low rate certificate from a Canadian ( Government agent, and then moved. 1 What he says is Interesting, j Ranfurly, Alberta, May 10, IOCS, j J. X. Grieve, Esq., Spokane, Wash. : i Dear Sir After a dozen or more man with the stock over 100 miles out m tne liiren iate country, easi oi uimonton. Indeed, how surprised, how favorably everything compared with my dream of what I wanted to sec in a new country. Had never had any experience In farming, but I was Immediately converted into a farmer. And from that moment I have prosered. Selecting a homestead noar Birch Lake, I returned for wife and three small children and freighted out from Edmonton. In March, following year, we shoveled a spot clear of snow and pitched our tent and commenced operations. At that time we had no neighbors. Four years have passed. The locality is well settled: two miles from railway station, with churches and schools, telephone and good road accommodations. We are enjoying the privileges pra ing evf granted to any rural district in Washton. The Birch Lake country is no exception. This great transformation js rapiaiy going on in every district in WCSfern Canada I estimate that every quarter section In every direction is capable of provalue nu 1 v uivivuvu iv uwv. ... head, which was very profitable on account oi the abundance of forage. To farm was compelled to buy about $400 worth of farm machinery on time, and the payments fell due last fall, and ; you may wonder how I expected to pay for them when we had 6uchi a bad year. Twas a little bad for western ' Canada or for a Mlssourian. But is not 35 or 40 bushels oats a pretty good ; yield per acre in many States? Then j the price of grain went out of sight. so when I had 6old.my crop l iouna 1 was at)Ie lo make my payments nicely ; besides, we. had lots of feed. No winterj much more pleasant than we dId ln western Washington. This Is . . . . . ,if m range ana nara 10 explain, uui iia tn.e nevertheless; at 40 degrees below zero we have more comfort than you would at 20 degrees above, so still and dry, wth bright, sunny days. My wife , says that the only regret she has Is j that we did not come here ten years j ago, as we would now certainly have ' been in a position to retire from hard ' work. Most women soon become satis- . fied as neighbors begin to come round j them. Have OS acres in crop this year, J besides 2 acres potatoes, which have always brought me a fair price. We ; find a ready market for everything we who i-re a little skeptical. The trouble with me is that I have so much to say so favorable to Albetta 'tis hard to be brief. Respectfully, (Signed) P. S.

Sneclal laes for Cement. I A Kirk nf nnrtlnnrl rement Is a very useful thing to have for making quick repairs about the farm. A hole in a drain pipe can be stopped In a few minutes with a little cement mixed with water thick as putty. A crack in a barrel can bo stopped this way. Hardwood floorr, nay be patched and nail holes filled so they will not leak. A waterproof floor can be laid over an old board floor in a short time. Sweep the old floor clean and dry and nail down all loose boards. Cover with a layr of heavy wire netting:, tacking it tlo'.vn occasionally. Over this lay a layer of concrete of 1 part Portland cemeiit, 3 parts clean sand, mixed with water to a thin paste. Smooth thoroughly, but if it Is to be used by stock bnrvh with an old broom to make it rough, then let it dry thoroughly before using the floor. Gutters may be put in where necessary. Holes In aa old shingled roof can be quicKly stopped by forcing a little cement pitty under the shingle where the leak appears. Some special uses to which cement is being put are the making of bee hives, brick for pavement and ordinary foundations, cement shingles for rooflag, grain bins ln the form of square boxlike and round barrel -like receptacles, etc. The use of this excellent material for farm structures is only just opening up and It Is destined to become the most Important material for general farm building. Farm and Home. Con-peas for Taalore. The use of cowpeas for pasture is r-ot as a rule the test farm practice, but under circumstances it Is advisable and fairly profitable. Grazing cultivated lands is likely to render succeeding tillage more difficult on account of ,he trampling by stock, and, unless care Is exercised in pasturing cowpeas, loss of animals by bloating may result, especially ln wet weather. However, the email amount of work and the insignificant outlay always associated with the grazing Qf stock commend the practice to the average farmer, and scarcity of labor often makes it necessary to pasture a crop whenever possible. Cowpeas when planted In corn are very commonly used for grazing, especially with hogs. The best time to begin pasturing cowpeas Is when the first pods are ripe. This practice is not generally followed, as at least a pax t of the seed Is saved first. When the peas are sown in cornfields the grazing is deferred until the corn has been gathered. In a feeding trial at the Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station It was found that pigs fed corn alone gained 0.3C pound dally, while pigs on cowpea pasture and corn gained 0.07 pound dally, consuming 3G per cent less corn for each pound of gain. The returns were $10.G3 for nn acre of cowpeas, with corn at 40 cents a bushel and hogs at 3 cents a pound. The Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Station reports that cowpeas planted early in July furnished two grazing periods for milk cows before frost in the fall, and that the flow of milk was noticeably Increased. At the Arkansas Station steers were fattened on cowpea pasture and cotton seed, making an average gain of two pounds a day for ninety days. So long as the pea vines were green and considerable seed was available, .very little cotton seed was eaten. The cost of each pound of gain was only 2 cents for the cotton seed, thus showing the high value of cowpea pasture. I.me-Snlphar Spray. In a bulletin of recent date from the United States Itureau of Plant Industry the author says that on account of the corrosive action of Bordeaux mixture, particularly when used during wet seasons, experiments have been carried on to discover a substitute as a fungicide. The author has experimented with a mixture of sulphur and lime, and finds that it is quite sufficient for the control of the ordinary leaf and fruit diseases of the apple and iieach. This fungicide, which Is not a new one, having been recommended for use many years ago. was made by the author by placing fifteen pounds of fresh lime In a barrel, pouring over It two or three gallons of boiling water, and Immediately adding ten pounds of sulphur and another bucket of hot water. The mixture will boll vigorously for Ecveral minutes and should be stirred and more water added if the mass geta too thick. After boiling ceases, which thould W in from twenty to thirty minutes, the mixture should be diluted with cold water to make about fifty gallons, thoroughly stirred and strained to take out the coarse particles of lime. This fungicide has been tested In connection with apple bitter rot experiments, aiile blotch, apple scab and leaf Fpot and found but little inferior to IJordeaux mixture, and so far without any Injurious effect As a fungicide for the control of peach brown rot and scab It lias proved exceptionally favorable, as the amount of disease Is greatly reduced, and the corrosive effect of the Ilordeaux mixture, resulting In the ceroliaUoTi of the trees, is avoraed. The self-boiled liuie-sulphur mixture Is said to have some effect as an insecticide ajlnst scale insects, but Is not so efficient as the hoi led mixture usually recommended. It can, however, be applied without injury to the trees during any season of the year.

Where formerly only spring wheat was grown in western states a large acreage of winter wheat is n-5w sown. The great wheat states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illinois are gradually being eclipsed tf the . heat-growing states west of tu Misif.sslppl river, and they in turn aw now menaced b- the cheap wheat land of North Dakota and the Canadian nortBwest. Argentina, Australia, India and Russia are competitors of the United States and Canada ln supplying th world's consumptfon of wheat. In 1900 the United States produced 73V 261, 0 bushels of wheat, France 324,72r.UtX. British India 319,?SO,000. while the total world's production tht abora year aggregated 3,423,701.000 busils of wheat. I.i the older wheat producing states it has become a rotation crop of claver 2.3d corn Instead of being the prtncipzi agricultural product. The spring wheat lands of Canada are being cult Ivatrxl on account of their low valuation and the production of a higher grade of harJ milling wheat. ÜIHcsb Irrigated acres on reclaimed swaxap lands are particularly adapted to tbe cultivation of wheat the volume of land adapted to Its production In the United States has nearly reached Its Hernial limit. The population Is outgrowing wheat production and at the present decrease of bushels per capita in a quarter of a century the export of wheat from this country will be eliminated. If wheat holds st?ady around $1 per bushel it will stimulate production on land now devoted to corn and grass. It will also encourage the extension of wheat cultivation Into the Hudson Bay and Southern Alaska districts. It has been demonstated by the agricultural experiment stations that the selection of good seed and Improved cultivation will increase the yield of wheat per acre. In the older states a three-year crop rotation of corn, clover and wheat will keep up the volume of production. The development of the cheap wheat lands of the northwest and the extreme northern wheat belt will tend to reduce the area of wheat In the Mississippi valley states, particularly when high pYlced farm lands can be mad to yield a larger revenue when devoted to the cultivation of other crops. The cheap lands of India, Siberia, Argentina, Australia and the the Canadian northwest present the greatest possibilities for cheap wheat production in the future.--Goodall's Farmer.

The Japanese have an interesting leg end ic connection with the origin of the chrysanthemum, the London Globe says. In a garden, bathed in the soft moonlight, a young girl plucked a flower and commenced to strip the jetals to nee If her fiance loved her truly. Of a sudden a little god appeared before her and assured her that her flam loved her passionately. Your husband will live, ha added, tji many years as the flower, which I will let you choose, has ix'tals.

At length she picked a Tcrslan carnation, an, with the aid of a gold pin. taken from her hair, she separated each of the petals of the flower, so as to Increase the number of folloles and of the nhniler of years accorded by tbe girl to her fiance. Soon, under hr deft fingers, one, two, three hundred petals, tkln, pliant and beautifully curred, had been evolved, and the young girl cried for joy to think of the happy future which her ruse had assured her fiance. o, runs the legend, was the chrysanthemum created one moonlight night ih ft Japanese garden, where silvery brooks murmur softly as they run beneath the little bamboo bridges.

TJAEK TWAIN'S BOSS

Horace E. His by Asserts That Clem ens Was n Flrst-Itnte Pilot. Horace E. Bixby, who, with hia 82 years, is the oldest pilot on the Mis sissippi, is still at the wheel. For nearly sixty years he has piloted craft on the Mississippi. Ohio, Missouri, Arkan sas and Red rivers. He served under Admiral Foote. who called him the best pilot that he had ever seen. He has been upon pleasure craft, regular pack ets, government boats under all con ditions, and is now at the wheel of the Horatio G. Wright, a snag boat work ing between St. Louis and New Orleans. Capt. Bixby has trained a host of pilots to follow the channels of the various streams. Among this number wa:i Samuel L. Clemens, better known n:t Mark Twain, who served a full apprenticeship with Gen. Bixby and afterward piloted In the Ohio river with his instructor. "One of the first questions I nsked Clemens when he wanted me to teach him to be a pilot was if he used tobacco," says Capt. Bixby. "He didn't chew, but he was an inveterate smok er." The cap'n didn't chew or smoke himself and was a little doubtful about ac cepting Clemens as a pupil because of this vice, says Hampton's Magazine. The apprentice made good, however. and now his Instructor says: "Some people infer that Clemens was not a good pilot, but he was a firstclass one. He adapted himself to the river from the start and was as good a pupil as I ever had under me. We made a bargain that he was to pay me $000 to teach him the river, $100 down and the rest in Installments. I never did get the whole amount, but I did get $300. He paid me $100 when I took him with me, and I didn't get any more until we were running a boat together some years later. At this time he paid me $200, and, as the Irishman says, 'I forgive him the debt, but don't say anything about that it's all right." . When Clemens became famous he caused .1 lot of trouble for Capt. Bixby. A lot of reporters began bothering him for stories of Mark Twain, and the captain told all the stories he knew a long time ago. Xott when the reporters pester him for them he gets peevish. "I wish Clemens was dead, then maybe you fellows would let me alone," he says. Blxby's pride is not that he was once Mark Twain's pilot, but that he was pilot of the Fenton. the flag steamer of the ironclad fleet, during the civil war, and that he was chief or confidential pilot for Admiral Foote. He says that he brought on the battle of Memphis. In which Admiral Foote destroyed the fleet of Admiral Elliott for the Confederacy. Twelve years ago last Christmas Capt. Bixby was put on the snag boat Horatio G. Wright and has been acting as pilot on that boat since Chat time, living ln St. Louis with his wife, children and grandchi'lren. Capt. Bixby says he never encouraged his boys to be pilots. "It's getting lo be a bum Job, with nr. money in it. Time was when they paid $250 a month ; then they dropped to $200, and Anally to $100, except on tugboats," he fays. EVEN BETTER. Lore Sbonld Tie Reciprocal and Abound In Mutual Service. For thirty days she had taken care of her husband a big. delightful boy a genius, popular, gay, fascinating abroad nervous, exacting, fascinating at home. She looked after his bed ami board, nursed his indigestions, cheered his periodical depressions, welcomed his friends, hated his critics and rnothpred him as a childless wife can mother her husband. When half n lifetime had passed in these varied occupations, shy developed a severe and painful disease of the heart. Her husband was amazed, perturbed, distracted. "Doctor," he cried to the old family physician and friend, "I don't understand what Mary has done to bring on tMs terrible trouble!" "Ion't you?" replied the doctor. "I do Everybody else knew. The husband was honestly Ignorant, and was as innocent cf having been a party to her sacrifice as an ignorant, mature man ever can be. The story is as common as life. Now it Is the husband and now the wife who Is shield, guide, comfort, protection for the other. Sometimes the task completes itself without a break. Again death steps in and thrusts aside the hands which have always been able to do their calming and saving work before. Or the flesh suecuctbs while the spirit Is still strong. Whatever happens, there Is only one thing more beautiful In the world than this self-forgetting love which spends lavishly for love's sake; and that is the reciprocal love which receives and gives, spends and saves, exacts and abounds at the same time, and which never has to utter ln a dark hour the vain regret, "I don't understand! I didn't understand!" Youth's Companion. Aristocratic Anns. The Duke of Norfolk has two sisters who are nuns.

Miss Mary and Miss Edith Clifford, sisters of Lord Clifford, of Chudleigh, are both nuns, as are Miss Cicely A rundell, sister to Ixrd Arundel!, and Miss Leonine Dormer, sister to Lord Dormer. Ijord French, who lives in Johannesburg, has two sisters who are nuns; three Misses Petre, sisters of Lord Fctre, are nuns; Lord Ilerrles has no fewer than four 6lsters who live In convents: and, as for Lord Trimlestown, an Irish peer and ISth baron, history seems uncertain as to whether four or five of his sisters are nuns, as several of these ladles have not been raised to the rank of baron's daughters.

CHILD HAD SIXTY BOILS

And Suffered Annually rrlth n Red Scald-I.lUe Humor nit Her Head Troubles Cored by Catlcura. "When my little Vivian was about six months old her head broke out in boils. She had about sixty in all and I used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment which cured her entirely. Some time later a humor broke out behind her ears and spread up on to her head untii it was nearly half cov ered. The humor looked like a scald, . very red with a sticky, clear fluid com- j ing from it. This occurred every spring. I always used Cuticura Soap and Ointment which never failed to heal it up. The last time it broke out it became so bad that I was discouraged. But I continued the use of Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent until she was well and has never been troubled in the last two years. Mrs. M. A.

Up to two months ago I was working in a building of that kind. So far as attending to the garbage was concerned, I had the easiest time of my life. There was practically no garbage. The people lived well enough, I guess. Anyhow they received packages from the butcher and grocer, but they never seemed to throw anything away. About the only thing they didn't eat was coffee grounds and potato skins and tomato cans, and there was precious little waste of even that. " here I am working now the families are all American. That is where the food goes to waste. The people in that houe throw away enough provisions every day to feed all those French families a week." San Francisco Chronicle.
