VTESxHRZI CANADA AS A GRAIN PKODUCSB. Xever Saw Such Fine "Wheat Anjwhere. Gust. Anderson, of Maidstone, Saskatchewan was formerly of Minnesota, and has been in Central Canada three years. On January 16, 1910, he writer: "Arriving fifteen mile3 from Maidstone. I bought a couple of steers from a rancher, as my capital wa3 not large, and with the t.v oxen I brought with me, I broke -3 acres which I put in crop in 1108 and had to clear pome brush. I earned 545.00 by breaking fifteen acres for a neighbor and during the summer I put up hay and hau ed timber and put up houses for ather settlers. Notwithstanding a heavy frost on August 12th, I had 22i bushels cf "Äheat per acre and CO bushels of oats. Ofl 35 acres of wheat in 1909. I got 27 bushels of wheat per acre and 1,300 bushels of oats off 20 acres. I never saw such fine wheat anywhere. We hav? plenty of rain between May and August and after August seldom any but dry, warm days. Water can be had at from 20 to 40 feet, and plenty of grass for cattle." The evidence of Mr. Anderson is given because It Is encouraging to the man of small means who is desirous of bettering his condition. It shows what can be done, and there i3 really but small limit to the man with push and energy to become wealthy on Canadian lands. And the grain that he rai. es is good. A press dispatch says: The quality of the wheat continues to he the feature of the deliveries. In tho total of 3.37S cars in the February Inspections there were 2,847 of high grade stuff, a percentage of 84.28. For January the percentage was 82.21, and for the six months it was 88.6. This is an unusually high average, and it demonstrates beyond the shadow of a doubt that the farmers In this part of the Dominion still know how to grow first clas3 wheat. The crop ot 190S wa3 considered good enough, and Its average of contract wheat was only 70 per cent. Good weather throughout the season was an Important factor, of course, in insuring the high quality of the grain, and it is not likely that atmospheric influences of so farorahle a character will be encountered for a long time to come. The be&t that can be expected is that a fair average for a term of years will be maintained. The End ot Her Hope.

Winston Churchill, the novelist, described at a dinner in' New York the difference between romanticism and realism in fiction: "To make my meaning clearer," he ended, "I will take the case of a young man and girl sweethearts. The young man, a romanticist, said passionately to the girl: " 'Darling, it shall be my life's one purpose to surround you with every comfort, and to anticipate and grant your every wish.

I'Fan for Frcd-Ilox. The illustration of a feed box is self-explanatory, and with the following lit of dimensions should be easv to build: The legs are made from 4x4's 31 inches on the high side, sawing a bevel at one end of 12 inches; the sides are 2x12 inches: the length cf the box is S feet. The bottom is made by joining seven common floor boards, generally using fence flooring clear of knots as possible. The best v.-ay to la j- the bottom is to take 16-foot fence hoards, laying the two end 2xt cross pieces 4 inches from the end. Across ihe center lay two other S inches apait, sawing the bottom in two to make the bottoms for two boxes. The 2x4 across the center, which is used for supporting the center of the bottom, should be made of hard wood. Chimps go around this 2x4 and over the ton of the box. Use a 16-inch clamp, such as commonly used for building hay racks; bore through the 2x4, place the clamp bottom side up ever the side of the box and draw it up tight. The lower edge

rcr.D fox. of the 2x12 used for sides should be planed to a bevel to match the bottom of the box. For feeding meal it would be well to place a cotn crib strip lxl inches around the top of the box. This will prevent the wind from blowing the meal out. as it projects over on the inside 2 inches. Teeth Should He I'mmlnrd. A great many of the troubles of the horse como when the owner thinks he is treating him the best in winter when there is little work and the horse is turned out to pasture, or to an alfalfa stack. There are a number of points to keep in mind when disposing of the horse for the winter, says a Colorado bulletin. First of these is the condition of his teeth. Remember, if he has been living largely on chop feed, or other giain that requires little mastication, that his t?th may not be in condition to handle the roughage of the pasture or the poor quality of hay which is usually fed to horses that arc not working. lie may be parrot-mouthed and not able to bite off the grass. - The teeth should by all means be examined by a veterinarian, if the owner is Incapable. Hough feed must be well chewed before It can be properly digested. Itednclnff tbe Meat mil. In many American families meat is eaten two or three times a day; in such cases the simplest way of reducing the meat bill would very likely he to cut down the amount used, either by serving it less often or by using less at a time. Deficiency of protein need not be feared when one good meat dish a day is served, especially if such nitrogenous materials as egg3, milk, cheese and beans are used instead. In localities where fish can be obtained fresh and cheap, it might well be more frequently substituted for moat fo: .the sake of variety as well as economy. Ingenious cooks have ways of "extending the flavor" of meat; that is, of combining a small quantity with other materials to make a large dish, as in meat pies, stews, and similar dishes. Properly Ilraced Corner Pot. The ordinary braces set .in line with iihe wires do not prevent the corner post from leaning. A brace set in the !

A ew Dip for Cuttle. The Oklahoma State Board of Agriculture has adopted a new dipping solution for cattle. The crude oil method has been abandoned on account of ' its often injurious effect on steers. All cattle shipped in from Texas must be dipped In order to keep out Texas fever by killing the ticks, which carry the disease. The new dip is an arsen ical solution, much cheaper than the crude oil, just as effective and less injurious. It is made by boiling 10 pounds of commercial arsenic, 24 pcund3 of sal soda and 1 gallon of . pine tar in 40 gallons of water. It is then Increased to 50 gallons by adding water, and this solution is enough for 430 gallons of water when mixed with it. The cost is about a cent a gallon, or about 23 cents rer ster in dipping. The only danger from the use of this dip is that a steer might accidentally swallow some of the solution, a quart of which would cause death. Men nml "Women.

Htm- Much Seed to o,v. The question of the proper amount cf seed to sow is never settled. Two and one-half bushels of average oats, sown broadcast, are not too many on average land, avcrag? seasons: and ' about one-half bushel less when drilled in, Is looked upon as 3bout right by most oat growers. Many good farmers differ, however, on this, many thinking a peck will bring as good or better results. There are varieties of onts with a very large berry which would have to be increased to get the same number of plants to the acre that the very small berry oats would give. Still, as a rule, a large vigorous seed will produce a large vigorous plant and this would need more room than a smaller one. The season and soil make considerable difference, too, with the amount of seed. Pasturing grain with sheep or other light stock, tends to thicken it, also to shorten the straw and to prevent lodging, though it frequently adds to the length of time for ripening. When there is danger of oats lodging, thick seeding tends to prevent it. A Pmlseworthy I'xample. Girl3 of the graduating class of Lynn, Mas.. h'gh school deserve commendation for their resolution to appear at the commencement exercLes in plain white muslin dresses without laces or frills. Lynn is a factory town. Many of the girl3 in the graduating class come from humble homes, and extravagant fancy dresses for graduation v. ould eniail'a burden cn slender Incomes. Therefore, in order to prevent rivalry and preserve equality to the last minute of school life, the girls decided to appear at commencement in inexpensive gowns of uniform style. Private schools, patronized by snobdom. are free to cultivate snobbery to the limit. Public schools, paid for by the taxpayers, should not tolerat.e the ieast pretense of "superiority ' by pupils or attempts to create caste by means of societies. The school girls of Lynn merit praise for their altruism, and the their example is worthy of Imitation. Chicago Journal. A Xovel I meet Catcher. Only people who have had crops or plants destroyed by insects can appreciate what a pest these little things are. Always exceptV ing. of course, the jQ. victims of the voraf l cious mosquito. In the country all sorts of homely devices are used to catch the bugs ai d kill them, and an Ore?si , gon man, who probauiy nau 11 is appie orchard overrun by some destructive species, patented a trap for the pests. A barrel has pieces cut out of the upper portion and is half filled with rotten or bruised apples or some other odoriferous fruit. On top of the barrel is placed a pan partially filled with water, oil or some poisonous liquid. From the apex of a tripod that keep3 the basin from falling off the barrel hangs a lantern. In the daytime the insects will be attracted by the odor ot the fruit, and in flying up to feast many cf them are likely to fly into the water. At night the lantern is lighted and bugs will come from afar to flutter against it and meet their death in the liquid below. Chicken." for Market. Old and young chickens to be sold for market purposes will bring much more if they are confined in close quarters for a week or more and fed heavily during the time. A part cf the well-equipped poultry plant, therefore, should consist of a poultry fattening pen, provided with adequate feeding and watering devices. Journal of Agriculture. Value of (.titnen Fowl. The guinea fowl is growing in fa Vor as a market bird, the flesh coming nearer to the flavor of game than any of our domestic poultry. Hint About the Farm. Refill the stlt box in the pasture. Give the horses a bran mash twice a week. A good swing stanchion is net uncomfortable to the cow. Gratifying the appetite adds greatly to the thrift of the flock. No ups and downs In care and feed, but keeping everlastingly at it. Set the strawberries in rows four feet apart and two feet in the row. Avoid extremes in everything. Money invested in land cannot easily be lost. If the pump bucket leaks, take it to town with you. The tinner will fix it while you wait. . The plan of hay farming with chem icals has its attractions, especially for the oldish man, who desires to get rid of the care of live ttock, and to cut down his labor outgo to the lowest possible amount. Milk from unhealthy cows is not safe to use and only cows in good health can make profitable use of the food given them. The herd should be inspected at regular intervals by a competent veterinarian. A garden cf an acre, well tended, will produce vegetables enough to sup ply an ordinary family year In and year out, as well as to feed a Hock 0 fowls whose eggs may be traded for groceries at any ountrj' store. The man who puts the finest products on the market is the one who reaps the bountiful rewards. Be sure ! your products are in the most r.cceptabk' condition before marketing if there is a desire to win new custom ers. Each man who is to milk twelve or fifteen cows will need to spond twelve or fifteen minutes in cleaning them. This cleaning is very simple and inex pensive, and yet nine out of every ten farmers scout the idea as preposter ous. During the past year" a wonian who has a house and lot on the edge of a thriving country town in the South has, besides raising all the vegetables consumed by a family of four, sold $100 worth to the provision dealers in town.

Bake in a loaf tin. Vegetable Sonp. With a vegetable flavored soup a clear beef stock is b?st. Tomatoes are important, and carrots, turnips, leeks, celery, lima and string beans, corn, rice and sometimes barley are used in combination. All the vegetables should be neatly cut into cube3 and added according to the length of time required for the cooking of the various kinds. Cream Pie. Beat three eggs light, add to them a cup of sugar, a pint of milk, and two-thirds of a cup of flour. Line a pie plate with pastry and bake. Cook the cream mixture in a double boiler until thick.

To remove tea stains lay the fabric over a bowl and pour boiling water through it. A flat file is one of the best things on which to sharpen bread, meat and chopping knives. When vegetables with roots become soft and withered, slice off one end and lay In water for a few hours. If a pan smells of onions boil It out with tea leaves; this will make It perfectly clean aud sweet smelling again. If mixed with milk Instead of water mustard will not get dry, but will keep nice and fresh until it Is all used up. A little vinegar put In the water in which eggs are poached will keep them whole and prevent them from spreading. To prevent starched articles stick Ing to the Iron add a pinch of salt and a little lump of lard to the boiled starch. Rusty knives can be cleaned by soaking the blades In paraffin oil and then rubbing them with finely powdered ashes. A good way to tell when ham is fried enough is by the fat. When the fat is brown (not burnt) the ham is done. Burning oil is spread by water. Tc extinguish It throw down flour, sand or earth. The idea Ls to prevent the oil's spreading. When ironing colored garments avoid a very hot iron, as too great heat tends to fade the colors. Iron on the wrong side whenever possible. Scrubbing brushes should always be hung up when not in use, so that the bristles have a chance of drying. They will last far longer if treated in this way. To put starched curtains on the rod without tearing, first run a lead pencil through the hem. Inserting the rubber end; that opens the hem easily and quickly. When the mincing machine needs oiling use a drop of glycerine. Thia will prevent any risk of disagreeable taste or smell, and will make the machine work easily. If new enamel saucepans are placed in a pan cf warm water, allowed tc come to the boil, and then cool, they will be found to last much longer before either cracking or burning. Iron handkerchiefs in the middle first and the edges can then be Ironed more easily. If the edgC3 be lrone'd first the middle will swell out, and the handkerchief cannot be folded in a good shape. When you get through using your wringer take a piece of cloth and wet with kerosene, and nib the rolls well with it. They will come just as clean and white as when new. Repeat every week after washing.

ODD NAMZ3 FOR NET7 COLOES.

MinilrN of liinlnr Faltrios tJe5Knatcd a Willow and Seaweed. This season green is assertively in the lead for fabrics to be used for daytime wear and particularly in tailored costumes. Every shade known heretofore and a few additional ones are shown and called by names that appropriately designate the exact' shade. The newest, says Vogue, are hemlock, willow, chartreuse, seaweed, Verte-de-Mer, bronze and ivy. Venetian rouge is a deep and rare shade of red with just a tinge of brown, and terra cotta has a dusty tcne not seen in this color before. It greatly improves it, as does the ashy tcne given to the reddish plum color, which is known by the name rhododendron. Chataine is a deep red brown, very becoming to any type, and brun foncee corresponds to seal brown. Moyen gris is a smoke gray. The paler tiuts for evening wear show a pale chartreuse, a pale sesastri and a pale smyrne. Crepuscul, lilac, bois de lose lichen, a light gray green and tanagra, a light cedar shade are the unusual hues, besides which all the colors known as evening shades are to be found. In these last cravette, which is a hue suggesting shrimp, is very captivating, and for dinner gowns or theater dresses- there is a group, quite distinctive, of colors that remind one of old favorites, but differ by showing a grayer tone or a greener cast, or a note of purple, a difference decided though subtle. Of these tints rose crulee comes In two shades, one very pale, the other medium deep. The color is on the old rose order and has a soft glow, though toned on gray. Sauterne is a new and exquisite shade of amber, and champignon has a bronze cast, looking like seaweed dripping wet on the beach in the sun. Aeroplane is a smoky blue green, and acier brunl is purplish gray, coming in two shades, and caca is a deep fawn brown. Etna Is a smoky brown, and the new stone grays that are so scart are dingy, green gray. Taupe is the leading shade in plain mesh veils, and those made of a wiry thread in the large, hexagonal style are unusually becoming to the complexion. Another mesh veil, of finer weave, is covered with flat velvety pastilles, square in shape, scattered over the surface at close intervals. It is remarkable how satisfactory one may furnish one's entire wardrobe ready-made when only a few years ago anything out of certain standard colors had to be furnished by the dressmaker. The completness of the stock of colored separate waists evidences this, it being possible to match any suiting in a variety of fabrics and models. Thus one may keep up to the modish fad for blouses of the same color as the skirt with little or no trouble. Prominent In the showing of a leading shop are embroidered net waists, the pattern In sf;k soutache braid. To show this off contrast is given by a white mousseline lining, over which the work stands out clearly. ATTITUDE OF THE ROMANTICS. How It Wan Exaggerated by Some of the Famo n French Writers. Ostensibly the Romanites were chiefly concerned with the breaking down of the old rules which fettered literary and dramatic composition, making meters more elastic and demanding more latitude In the choice of subjects. They really differ from their predecessors in making literature more subjective, in attaching more importance to their own personalities, experiences and "sensibilities," in more openly exploiting the secrets of their souls, in arranging limelight effects and posturing in the center of the stage. One or two of them, indeed, like Alfred de Vigny, were too proud to care to make themselves conspicuous in this way; one or two, like Prosper Merimee, were too cynical. But their general tendency wa3 to turn on the limelight, strike attitudes and call upon the world to behold and admire them, not for what they had done, but for what they were. The attitudes struck by some of them by Dumas, for instance were more or less intentionally grotesque, but the more usual intention was to appear cither sentimental or sublime, says the London Times Even SainteBeuve aspired to be sentimental, though circumstances were against him, for he was ugly and undistinguished. Victor Hugo never tired of reminding his admirers (untruly) that Chateaubriand had saluted him as "sublime child," while the pioneers of Romanticism were. If possible, even more insistent in their self-conscious egoism. It was said of Chateaubriand that he would be content to starve in a garret provided that the garret were in a theater; and Lamartine had no scruple In formulating his unfavorable opinion of any one whom his personality failed to Impress. Of a certain stranger who neither blushed nor shrunk into hl3 shoe3 when introduced to him he remarked: "I predict no good of that young man. He was unmoved by my presence." That surely is the acme of egoismsinoffensive because unsurpassable. One cannot help applauding the sentiment if only because Lamartine, In uttering It, robbed even Chateaubriand of his laurels. MUlIWetl EsollHm. "What's the matter with you?" asked his wife. "I'm feeling lonely," was the reply. "Don't you like Ü1I3 town?" "I don't like this earth." "What's the objection to It?' "People are too egotistical. It there's anything I hate it's egotism. And when I see kings going about ecu fldently and doing things wrong, an diplomats trying all sorts of lnsinccir tricks with complete effrontery, and lawyers seeking applause for arguing on the wrong side of a case, and everybody displaying utter selfishness without a blush, I am forced to the conviction that I am the only consistently moral gentleman on this globe. And It makes me feel lonely." Milton'a lteply. Milton, besides being an excellent poet, could, if the occasion offered and circumstances demanded, make a sharp rctcrt. In a letter to the London Specf tator the writer quotes an anecdote which he found among some family papers. It was originally related by his great-great-grandfather in 1762. King Charles II. had the curiosity to see Milton, and in the course of conversation said to him: "God hath punished you for your malice, and so forth, to my father by taking away your sight." "Aye," Milton is said to have replied, "but before I lost my eyes, he lost hia head." We don't mind seeing other people get up in the world so long as they ' stones. I No, Alonzo, all clubmen are not on the police force.

The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia. E. Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and "has ever since her decease continued to advise women. - Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician.

A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established this confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testimonial or used a letter without the written consent of the writer, and never has the company allowed these confidential letters to get out of their possession, as the hundreds of thousands of them in their files will attest. Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pinkham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She asks nothing in return except your good will, ani-her advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous . offer of assistance. Address Mrs. Pinkham, care of Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass.
