GÜAXTITY. QUALITY AND PÜICS'

Ihe Three F.culnl That Are tJlv- : ln Western Canada tirenli-r ln- ' pnlite than i:er This Year. Tne reports from the grain fields of Central Canada (whicü comprises the provinces ot Manitoba. Saskatchewan ad Alberta) are to hand. The year VJO has not only kept pace with previous years in proving that thi3 portion of the continent is capable of producing a splendid yield of all the smaller grains, but it has thoroughly outstripped previous seasons. There is quantity, quality and price, and from all parts of an area of abo-it 320.G0O square miles ther- comes the strong refrain of contt..ancnt and satisfaction. In the distribution of the conditions causing it no district has been overlooked. Various estimates of the total yield of wheat for the country have been made, but it is not the vast total that influences the general readero much as v.-hat has been done individually. The granä t-.tal say 130,000,000 bushels may have its effect on the grain prices of the world; it may be interesting to know that in the world's markets the wheat crop ot Canada has suddenly broken upon the trading boards. .ad with tho Argent-ine, and with Russia and India is now a factor in the making of prices. If so to-day, what will be its effect five or ten years from now, when, instead of there being seven million acres under crop, with a total yield of 135,000,000 or 130,000,000 bushels, there will be from 17,000,000 to 30,000,000 acres in wheat with a yield of from 325.0Ö0.0G0 to COO.000.COO bu.-uels. When it is considered that the largest yield in the United States but slightly exceeded 700,000,000 bushels, the greatness of these figures may be understood. Well, such is a safe forecast, for Canada has the land and it has the soil. Even today the Province of Saskatchewan, one of the three great wheat growing provinces of Canada, with 400,000 acres under wheat, produces nearly 50,000,000 busheis, or upwards of ciiStenth of the greatest yield cf the United States. And Saskatchewan is yet only In the beginning of its development. As Lord Grey recently pointed out in speaking on this very subject, this year's crop does not represent one-tenth of the soil equally ' fertile that is yet to be brought under the plough. Individually, reports are to hand of yi ;lds of twenty-five, thirty and thirtyfle bushels to the acre. Scores of yields are reported of forty and some as high as sixty bushels. The farmer, who takes care o! his soil, who gets his seed-bed ready early, is certain of a splendid crop. The news of the magnificent crop yield throughout t: e Canadian West will be pleasing to the friends of the thousands ot Americans who are residents in that country and who are vastly instrumental in the assistance they are rendering to let the world know it3 capabilities.

$ liar A Con fed ernte' Description of PlcUett'N ( linrjie at (iettyaburje. John J. Garnett, a colonel of artillery in the Confederate army, and a participant in the great battle of Gettysburg, thus graphically describes General Pickett's desperate charge cu the Union lines: Pickett was sitting on his horse, when General Wilcox rode up to him and, taking a flask of whisky from his pocket, said: "Pickett, take a drink with me. In an hour you will be in hell or glory." ' Bo it so. General Wilcox," returned rickctt, taking the proffered drink; "whatever my fate. I shall do my dutlike a brave man." The line being formed, the gallant' men on whom were centered a people's hope of a nation moved out oT iho woods. Firm-facrd and slow, a horrid front thej form. Still as the breeze, but dreadful as the storm. Nothing interrupted the view of th's superb movement. From the cannoncovered top of Cemetery hill, along theFederal lines, the soldiers of the Federal army watched with wonderment, not unmixed with admiration, the oncoming of those heroic columns, while the Confederates looked on admiringly, hoping against hope that success would reward the splendid courage, evinced by Pickett's men. When a short distance from their starting point they obliqued to the right and then to the left in order to secure cover in tho undulations of the plain across which they were moving. By seme strange fatality the artillery smoke, which had settled over the field after cannonading, and hung there close to the ground, lifted after the Confederate division had got some distance In its journey to death and glory, and revealed distinctly to both armies the movement then being made. Marching in the direction of the objective position with measured step and unfaltering courage, Pickett's division drew nearer and nearer to their goall without hindrance from the foe. What did it mean? Was their attack I to be a bloodless victory? These were questions that sprung instinctively to the minds of the gallant men. Oh, no; for suddenly a cloud-burst of flame, shot and shell came thundering from the ridge into the devoted ranks. There was no wavering, no halting on went Pickett's men. presenting as solid and undaunted front a3 the rock of Gibraltar. Many dead and wounded were left by their brave comrades on the srfot where they fell. There was no time for anything but duty, and that stern duty was ahead of them. Again and again the Federal batteries poured forth a rain of shot, shell, shrapnel and canister upon them in unstinted measure. Horrid rents, which are quickly closed up. are made In their linos as the men press steadily forward, a thunde.- cloud of war that would not b stayed. The Fedorlls.seeing that they Avere dealing with a desperate foe. Increase their fire, if possible, with no apparent effect, except to mark the tract over which the force is moving with the dead and wounded heroes. Never was there a sublimer exhibi tion of bravery on the field of battle. Courage was personified in every man. On they went in the face of the relentless hail of death that was beating against them. General Armistead was seen with his hat aloft on his sword. marching resolutely at the head of his gallnnt men. Shot and shell whistled about him, anü yet he was undaunted. His journey was a desperate one, but he continued bravely on, not with the , courage of desperation, bat with the courage of a perfect man and a gallant soldier. "Don't flinch an inch, boys," he had said to his men before starting away, and they were heroically responding. The carnage in their ranks wa3 fearful to contemplate. It seemed more j like :old-blooded butchery than sys tematic war. That part of our army not engaged watched the gallant band in paipful suspense. It did not seem within the limit of human endeavor that they could ever reach the objective point, so terrible was the slaughter to which they were being subjected. On they went, with every step becoming more determined. Surely there never was seen such matchless heroism. Nothing could stay or check them. When within a short distance of the Federal line their wild yells of defiance were heard akovc the thundering of their guns. The greatest moment of their lives had come. They gashed forward in a wild and disordered rush. Garnett, whose brigade was In front, fell dead within a hundred yftrds of the Union front, rword in hand. His men rushed madly upon the Sixty-ninth and Seventy-first Pennsylvania regiments, who had been awaiting the coming attack. At this moment they were brought under the fire of Stannard's brigade, which was occupying a small wood in advance and to the left of the point of Pickett's attack. Hancock realizing the purpose of the attack, and always on the alert to seize a favorable opportunitj-, threw a foroe on Pickett's flank. Two of Armistead's regiments were frightfully decimated and thrown into a disorganized state by this movement. The remainder of his brigade dropped Into ! the rear of the center of Pickett's lines. Armistead, swinging his sword wildly, and rushing from point to point, urged his men forward and reached the front rank between Kemper and Garnett. In the Impetuous rush which ensued I these brigades became a compact strug gling mass, of human beings, all bent on bloody work. Iushing forward, as if moved by some irresistible force superior to the individual will, they threw themselves upon the Union line like so many thunderbolts. The shock was terrific; it seemed impossible for human power to withstand it, and for n moment it seemed that it must sweep everything before it. With what breathleso interest we watched the struggle! General Lee. looking from a convenient point, stood calmly looking at the struggle. Not an expression of the face or an action Indicated that he had other than hopes of succers. He was as imperturbable as a reck. What emotions swayed his soul at that supreme moment he and God Jone only knew. The first line of the Federals was

pierced and they were driven hack upon the earthworks near tho artillery. There the work of death was renewed with frightful slaughter. Charges of grnpeshct were fired into Pickett's mm with terrible effect. Hancock r.r.d Gibbon rushed up their resrrves to help stay the furious onslaught cf tho Virginians. Hall rectified his line which had been outflanked

on the right. Harrow advanced with his left, and almost took Pickett in reverse. All these movements, made under the greatest excitement, threw the Federal troops into the same disordered state as their opponents, and both became mixed in a confused mass, the only way to distinguish one from the other being the blue and gray uniforms. The fighting became like that of an .infuriated mob. Confederates and Federals faced each other with clubbed muskets, their faces distorted with the fury of madmen. Commands were useless; they could not be heard above the din. A clump of trees just within the angle wall became the objective point of the Confederates. Armistead resolved to take it. Placing his hat on his sword he rallied about him 1"0 men who were ready to follow wherever he would lead. Rushing forward with his gall-int band he reached a Federal gun. and just as he adjured his followers to "give tUvm the cold steel, boys." fell dead in ids tracks, pieiced with bullets. The death of this gallant officer marked the complete failure of the Confederate as sault, and beaten, but undismayed. Pickett's men retraced Meir way across tl e field, now strewn with their dead. Riding up to General Lee, Pickett dis mounted and. saluting, said in a voice tremulous with sorrow: "General, my noble division has been swept away." "I alone am responsible. General Pickett " Lee replied, with that quiet dignity which always characterized him. "Why- I.ee Failed. A military critic, reviewing the personal narrative of the battle of Gettys'r-urg written by Col. Frederick A. Haskell of Wisconsin, within a month after the fight, but oily recently published, finds in it new reason to ask the question, "Why did Gen. Lee fail?" As a soldier, he avers, Lee is indubitably a far greater figure than Meade. How could such a leader- fail, in the prime of his power, and with an army almost matchless, practically equal In numbers to the adversaries whom he had repeatedly beaten? What brought that proud spirit so low that he fell into depression and begged that he might be allowed to resign? Gen. Morris Schaff, a graduate of West Point, and a soldier of long exrerlencc, In some of his discursive remarks in his story of the Battle of the Wilderness, gives a plausible answer to this question, probably without having seen it, as his story was written before the Teview above Tcferred to appeared. Lee's orders in every case to thoi-e in front that day were qualified . by the caution not to bring on a general engagement. k Orders of this kind. Schaff says, are embarrassing; for a corps' or division commander never knows how far to push his successes. Then he adds: "Their evils had a good illustration at Gettysburg. There Lee used identically the same language on the first day; and when Trimble urged Ewell to take advantage of the complete overthrow of our First corps and follow up our disordered troops and seize the Cemetery Ridge, hs replied that he had orders from Lee not to bring on a gen- ral engagement. Lee's orders were indeterminate and therefore hampering; and :'or that reason, and en that account, I believe, he lo.-t the battle of Gettysburg." Speaking from a military standIHiint, it is quite likely that Gen. Lee erred from excessive caution, realizing that he was in the enemy's country, and that if defeated an energetic commander opposed to him might push him to destruction. A Mortar float. On the gulf and inland waters during the Civil War much use 'as made of mortar boats, so called. These were simply gunboats carrying a mortar. This is a heavy cannon, so named on account of its resembling in shape an apothecary's mortar. ' The first boats that passed Vicksburg in the spring of 1S62 were a flotilla cf mortar boats. The advantage of the short, heavy, bell-shaped gun Is that It can be turned and fired at any angle of elevation, almost perpendicularly, IndeM. Mortars are used both on land and sea. As far back as the history of modern military weapons, the mortar has been employed. It is recorded that Joan of Arc herself aimed the mortar guns in her war against the English. The first thoroughly effective use of this weapon in recent times was during the Crimean War. On the water, to guard against the heavy recoil of the mortar, the boat containing It is built usually with broad bottom. Polemics.

Keeping the Soil Fertile. According to Prof. Whitney of the Bureau of Soil, United States Department of Agriculture, a soil to be fertile must contain a sufficient quantity of the ash ingredients of the plants to be cultivated, and these must be in such soluble condition as to bo taken up by the growing plants. Soils once fertile are said to be exhausted when deprived of such food as is required for plant nutrition, but rest and meliorating treatment will, in time, restore .such soils to a fertile condition. Until past the year 1750 no just ideas upon the rotation of crops seemed to have been formed in any part of England. The rotation ot crops affords time for the disintegrating action of the atmosphere, rain and frost to prepare new material from the rock particles In the soil and get it in a form to be used by the plant. One crop may use tip the available food of a particular kind faster than it cen be prepared by these natural agencies. When properly managed it enables one plant to prepare food-for another. All plants exhaust the soil, though in au unequal degree; plants of dif-

A S&WLL GREENHOUSE.

While most greenhouses are expensive to build and maintain, it is possible for an amateur to have one at small expense, as an addition to the dwelling. Hotbed sashes cost frcm S3.2." to $3.00 each, and measure 3x6 feet. If steam or hot water heating cannot be provided frcm the house, an oil stove will maintain a high enough temperature.

ferent kinds do not exhaust the soil in the same manner; all plants do not restore to the soil a like quantity or quality of manure, and all plants are not t equally favorable to the growth of .weeds. Upon the above principles Is based a regular succession of crops. Though the system of rotation is adapted to every soil, no particular rotation can be assigned to uny one description of soil which will answer at all times,' and on the( demand for different kinds of produce. On clayey soils, beans and clover, with rye grass are generally alternated with grain crops, and on dry loams or sandy ground turnips, beets, . potatoes and clover. On rich soils this system of alternate husbandry is most conducive to the plentiful production of food, both for men and animals. One portion of a farm would thu3 be always under grain crops, while the other portion was growing roots or cultivated grasses; but, as the major part of arable lands can not be preserved in a state of fertility with even this kind of management, it is requisite that the portion of the farm which is under cultivated grasses should be pastured for two or three years, in order to give it time to recruit. The following Is a good rotation of crops: First year, clover; second, clover; third, corn; fourth, oats; fifth, wheat. The clover does well with oats, and after an early mowing can be very well prepared for wheat. Orchard Pesta. Whether there is a v good or poor fruit crop it will, pay to keep the fruit trees as free from disease and injurious insects as possible. The healthy and uninjured tree is more liable to bear and prove profitable than the one full of disease and injury. The orchard will last longer if it is kept clean and Lcalthy. Borers are among the most Insidious pests of the apple orchard in some localities. On account of their habits they cannot be reached by poisonous spraye, and nostrums placed about the roots, as sometimes recommended, are utterly useless. The most efficient means of preventing damage from these pests is by anual inspection of the trees and removal of the grubs with a sharp pointed knife. 'Parlous protective measures are also used. One of the most effective is to paint the lower part of the stem in late winter or early spring with a fairly thick paint made from pure ready mixed paints for this purpose, since others may contain injurious substances. Wood veneer strips and wire gauze are sometimes used to prevent the eggs from being laid on the trunks of the trees, but white lead paint is simple and cheaper. Black rot is a fungous disease which attacks the fruit, foliage, old bark and branches of apple and pear trees. The leaf spot form probably causes more damage than the other forms. Sometimes black rot cankers on the trunk, and the limbs develop so rapidly as to endanger the life of trees, but this is seldom the case except where spraying is wholly neglected. The fruit is rarely seriously Injured, though outbreaks in this form may sometimes be quite severe. The Sand Pear. The sand pear is the only pear that js practically free from blight. It iS a very rapid and continuous grower. Jt is a prolific bearer and requires less attention and will stand more abuse than any other fruit tree known. The sand pear comes into bearing at au early age, and at 10 years old prdinary trees will yield from 10 to P0 bushels of pears. The trees usually begin to bear at five years of age. The sixth year each tree will net 25 rents, the seventh year ZO cents, and the eighth year $1, the ninth year .$3 and tenth year $1 per tree. By plant ing 21 feet apart 7." trees can be set ! to the acre. This would give a net return of $300 an acre tho tenth yeai, which would be equal to a $3.000 investment at C per cent. This is a very conservative estimate. We have seen ten-year-old trees at different places

which yielded Trom 10 to 20 tu she1. 3, and large trees which yielded from 30 to oC bushels. Ten acres of the sand pears at the above conserative estimate woulA bring $:!.000 income, or equal to a $00,000 investment, at C per cent.

Care of dm. During the summer and ether seasons when the weather is mild it is the custom on many farms to allow the cows to remain 1n the barn lot over night. Also, often this lot lies between the dwelling and the barn, in which case the area becomes very objectionable. The manure which accumulates in a lot wrhere the cows spend the night soon becomes a nuisance, besides being wasted. It is best either to stall the cows during mild weather or to turn them out to pasture at night after the milking is done. In the stalls the manure will not be scattered over large areas about the place, and will be in a position to be saved. If. the cows arc turned into the pasture for the night, the manure will be so far "removed from the home that it will not be a nuisance, and it will be on the ground, where none of it will be wasted and where it will do the most goou with the least amount of work. If the cows are to be stalled during the entire year, the stable must be well ventilated, so the animals will not suffer with heat at night. This can be easily done by providing plenty of doors and windows. Keeping them stalled at times when they could be let cut will make extra work !n handling the manure, but the compensation comes in being able to keep the surroundings neat and sanitary and also in having the cows where you want them in the morning for milking. Modern Farm Ihr. The use of the most molern meih ods In farming is by co means re stricted to the huge ranches of this country. In nearly every locality in the state farmers are using traction engines with steam or gasoline for power to plow and harrow their land We know one ranch of 6S0 acres net large for this state on which the plowing and harrowing is done 'with a 30 horse-power gasoline engine. This hauls four 14-inch gang plows and a 2-horse harrow the equivalent of the work of twenty horses. The distance traversed over tough soil is from two So two and a half miles an hour. One harrow is placed off to the side so tha the result is a double harrowing of the tract. It was considered too' smal an area to warrant the initial expense for the machine, but the owners of the ranch are satisfied that it will save its cost in a few years. The time is coming when the tedium of farm work will be laid upon machinery. -n ArijuMnltle Saw Flock.

It is made by boring a 2-lnch hole in two crotched logs and insert ing a stout cross stick. Farm and I Iome. , , Potatoes and Corn. While there is much difference of opinion as to the rotation of crops on a medium heavy loam, we have had the best results from following corn with potatoes, always being careful to heaviry manure the ground for the corn and not use any stable manure at all for the potato crop. By heavily manuring we mean giving the soil more than will be required by the corn and more tLan will be necessary to make good to the soil any, reserve fertility the corn takes from it; in other words, so that there will be some of the virtue of the manure left for the benefit of the potatoes. For the latter crop we confine ourselves to an apllcation of mixed fertilizer, consisting eff sulphate ammonia, bone meal and sulphate of potash, applied at the rate of 800 pounds to the acre. There may be no objection to the use of stable manure for the potato crop, provided one can obtain it well rotted, but the fresh manure is a scab breeder and we never use it for potatoes.

In going over one of the mountain roads, on the way to the crest of the Andes, the traveler has need of steady nerves. v A passage in "The Andean Laud," by C. S. Osborn, describes the journey. . ., The road is narrow and rocky and rutty and seep, with no walls to speak i of except tumbledown ones that increase the danger by their false suggestion of safety, and in one place the wagon would fall two thousand feet if it should roll off the edge of the mountain. The road ha3 no graceful sweeps or round, easy curves as it takes its way up the Titanic heights, but rather it zigzags like the teeth of a saw, as cending in short stretches and doubling back at sharply acute angles, leaving very little room for a team and wagon to turn in Hvhen driven slowly and carefully and two abreast. Now imagine, if you can, the horses driven madly in a gallop,- no trot; that would be slow; but In quick, short, jerky jumps, .i;h a3 the mustang-like animals would make under the saddle when pressed. The short, high coach follows the cavorting horses, jerking, careenin and springing like a small boat sailing! . 1 I iu 10 a wiiuty cnoppea sea. You perceive that the wheels are strong, and the springs, too, and the whole rig evidently intended for chariot racing. i The driver groans, yells, whistles shrilly, cracks his thick rawhide whip, lashes his horses, and does everything he knows that will inspire fear and induce speed. All this you become accustomed to in a measure, on your dash up the narrow road, dug Into and blown out of the giant ribs of the towering mountains. ' This Will Interest Mothers.

A chicken will drink paint; a cow partakes of wrater In which noxious chemicals have been washed; ducks cheerfully swallow snails and choke themselves In the process. No; animals, ,llke children, need watching. Recently numerous cases of poisoning in ducks, which followed the consumption of cabbage leaves, have attracted much attention. A few hours after feeding poisoning has manifested itself by loss. of appetite, great weakness, tottering steps and sometimes death. From time immemorial ducks have thrived on cabbage leaves. The poultry farmers were greatly puzzled. Then it was discovered that various caterpillars were concealed in tht cabbage leaves; hence these tears. But the point is that, far from Instinctive ly detecting any danger and behaving accordingly, the ducks consumed great quantities of the leaves with much apparent relish. London Answers.

While praiseworthy attempts are, being made in London to minlmlza the tipping system, the Throne says. a movement has been started in Berlin to make the custom compulsory, Tho cafe waiters in the kaiser's capital have formed themselves into a union with the object of legalizing tipping. They have drawn up a scal of tips and passed resolutions to enforce it. If the order a customer gives in a restaurant amounts to 3 shillings he will be expected to tip th waiter to tho tune of 12 per cent. If the order is more than 3 shillings tht "kellner" will be content with a tip of 10 per cent. In the larger restaurants the waiter will be satisfied with a modest 3 per cent tip if the bill amounts to 5.

What is claimed as the largest anfmal in the world Is represented by a colossal skeleton in the museum of Christchurch, New Zealand, says theLondon Globe. This Is the remains of a large specimen of the blue whale stranded on the coast of that country. This whale Is probably the largest ot all living animals. The length of ther skeleton 13 eighty-seven feet, and the head alone is twenty-ona feet. The weight of the bones is Bstlmated at nine tons. This gigantic, whale gets its name of blue whale fiom the dark bluish gray of Its upper surface. The tinge of yellow on Its lower part has led to the name "sulphur bottom," by which It is known on the western sid of the Atlantic. It is otherwise known has SIbbald's rorqual (Balenoptera S1V baldll). The chief food of this gigantic ani mal is a small marine crustacean (Thysanopoda inermls), known to tho whales as "kril." Another species of the same shrimplike group has been obtained in thousands from the stomachs of mackerel caught on the Cornish coast. The nearly related oposnum shrimps found in enormous numbers In the Greenland seas form the chief food of the common whale. Some of the thysanopodae are phosphorescent and contribute to the luminosity of the CM V ' CASTOR I A For Infants and Children. Tha Kind You liars Always Bought Bears the Signature F. W. N. U.
