HARVESTER AT WORK ) ■ Uncounted Miles of Bountiful Crops Make Glad the Farmers of Western Canada. I. ! YIELD WILL BE RECORD ONE Practically Beyond Reach of Accident, the Fruit of the Fertile Fields Is Being Gathered—Elevators and Railroads Will Be Taxed i to Their Capacity. On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, four weeks ago, the writer started for • twenty-mlle drive into the country, from one of the hundred or more new towns that have been well started during the past spring, in the Province of Saskatchewan, in Western Canada. Mile after mile, and mile after mile, Was traversed through what was one continuous wheat field, the only relief to the scene being the roadways that led back into other settlements, •Where would have been repeated the Same great vista of wheat What a wealth! Here were hundreds and thousands, and millions of bushels of what was declared to be a Equality of grain equal to any that has •ver been grown in the province. As we drove on and on I thought of those fellows down on the Board of Trade At Chicago, St Louis, Minneapolis And Duluth. While they were exploitSng each others' energies the farmer of Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba was contemplating how much he ;would realize out of his crop, now 'past any danger of accident over what his anticipations were two Eonths ago. *'Ons man said to me: Che profits of that field of wheat will ve me sufficient money to purchase 820 acres of land, for which the railway company is asking $6,400, and pay it in cash.” Another, with a field of flax—it was only 320 acres —said

he could do the same and still have a balance in the bank. Flax produces (wonderfully well, and the current price is about $2.50 per bushel. We then drove over into another township, getting further back from the railway, and the main traveled road. Here we found ourselves in the center , of a Swedish settlement. Those form- ; Ing the settlement were originally < from Nebraska. Invited to put up our i horses and stay over for dinner, and i a dinner that was enjoyed not only on account of the generous appetite created by the exhilarating drive, but also because of the clean linen, the < well-prepared dishes of roast fowl, potatoes, cabbage, and a delightful dessert, some of the history of the settle- < ment was learned. The host and 1 hostess were modest in describing 1 (their own achievements, and equally modest as to those of their friends, 1 but enough was learned to satisfy us , that they had come there about three i years ago, in moderate, almost poor, ] circumstances. Most of them had re- - ceived their homesteads as a gift from ( the government, and by careful dill- ] gence had purchased and paid for ad- i Joining land. They had plenty of cattle and horses, some sheep and hogs, ] and large well-kept gardens, showing ] an abundance of potatoes and cabbage j and other vegetables. Their buildings j were good. Schools were in the neighborhood and there was evidence of ] comfort everywhere. On to the Park Country. Reluctant to leave interesting 1 people, the horses thoroughly rested, : were “hooked up” and driven on, under a sun still high in the heavens, with the horses pulling on the bit and traveling at a 12-mile an hour gait over a road that would put to shame many of the macadamized streets, we were whirled along a sinuous drive through the woods and then out in the park country. Here was another scene of beauty, . groves of poplar, herds of cattle, ' fenced fields of wheat and oats and . barley and flax. Here was wealth, , and happiness and surely contentment. The crops were magnificent. The settlers, most of them, by the way, from lowa, had selected this location because of its beauty. Its entire charm was wholesome. Fuel was , in abundance, the soil was the best, the shelter for the cattle afforded by the groves gave a splendid supply of food, while hay was easy to get They liked It Here was a sturdy farmer, with his three boys. He had formerly been a merchant in an lowa town, his children had been given a college edu- : cation and one of the boys was about .‘to marry tbe accomplished daughter of a neighboring farmer. Through Land of Wealth. X The invitation to remain to supper was accepted, but tnat given to remain over night wap/tabled, it was only a 25-mlle drive into town over the best of roads, through such a :

splendid country, all one beautiful picture, and such an opportunity to use one’s imagination in figuring up the amount of the wealth of the crops through which the trip into town took us, was not to 49b enjoyed every day. And away we started. It was delightful. We drove and drove through' avenues of wheat, which today, having yellowed with the beneficent sun, is being laid low by the reaper, stacked and threshed by the thousands of hands required to do it, and in great wagons is being taken to the elevator. A night’s ride by train took ui through 225 miles of this great province of Saskatchewan—into the southwestern part—and'from appearances it might have been as though a transfer had been made across a township. There were wheat fields, oat fields, barley fields and flax fields, and many more that could not be seen. Yet there they were, and during the night we had passed through a country similarly cultivated. It will all secure a market and get its way to ocean or local mill by means of the great railways whose well-arranged systems are penetrating everywhere into the agricultural parts Prosperous Alberta. We afterward went over into Alberta, and here again it was grain and cattle, cattle and grain, comfortable farm homes, splendidly built cities and towns, the best of churches and the most thoroughly equipped schools. While talking with a Southern Saskatchewan farmer he said that the land he was working, and for which he had been offered S6O an acre, had been purchased five years ago for sl2 an acre, but he won’t sell. He is making a good profit on his land at S6O an acre, and why should he sell! Farther north, land was selling at from sls to $lB and S2O an acre. It was learned afterward that the soil was similar to that in the south, the price of which today is S6O an acre. The climate was similar and the markets as good. In fact the only differ ence was that today these northern lands occupy the same position that the more southerly ones did five years ago, and there are found many whe

say they will come into a price nearer their legitimate value of SSO Or S6O an acre quite as quickly as the southerly lands. And I believe IL Throughout all this great country, practically 500 by 800 miles square, there are still a great many homesteads which are given free to actual settlers. Many who have secured patents for their homesteads consider their land worth from $lB to $25 per acre. Immense Crops Assured. Throughout the southern portion of Alberta, a district that suffered more or less last year from drouth, there will be harvested this year one of the best crops of fall wheat, winter wheat, oats, flax and alfalfa that has ever been taken off these highly productive lands. # In Central Alberta, which comprises the district north of Calgary and east two hundred miles, through Camrose, Sedgewick, Castor, Red Deer, Wetaskiwin, Edmonton, Lacombe, Vegrevllle, Tofleld, Vermillion and a score of other localities, where are settled large numbers of Americans, the wheat, oats and flax, three weeks ago, was standing strong and erect, large heads and promising from 30 to 35 bushels of wheat and as high as 100 bushels of oats on carefully tilled fields, while flax would probably yield from 15 to 18 bushels per acre. In these parts the harvesters are busy today garnering this great crop and It will shortly be known whether the great anticipations are to be realized. Throughout all parts of Saskatchewan, whether north, south, east or west, the same story was heard, and the evidence was seen of the splendid and bountiful crop. Rich Yield in Manitoba. In Manitoba it was the same. The fields of grain that were passed through In this province promised to give to the growers a bumper yield, and as high as 35 bushels of wheat and 60 bushels of oats was freely discussed. It would appear as if the expectation of an average of 25 bushels of wheat throughout the three provinces would be met. In a few days the 40,000,000-bushel elevator capacity throughout the country will be taxed, the 25,000,000 bushels capacity at F«t William and Port Arthur will be taken up, and the railways and their equipment vvill be called upon for their best Today the great broad, yellow fields are industrial haunts, the self-binder is at work in its giant task of reducing Into sheaves the standing grain, the harvesters are busy stocking and stacking, the threshing machines are being fed the sheaves, the large box wagons are taking It to the elevators, and no matter where you fco It is the same story and a picture such as can only be seen in the great grain fields of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

NEW NEWS of YESTERDAY

President Broke Precedent

General Arthur Personally Called on Hugh McCulloch to Offer Him the Position of Secretary of the Treasury. In 1863 Hugh McCulloch, who for eighteen years had been a banker in Indiana, was made the first comptroller of the currency by appointment of President Lincoln. Two years later Mr. McCulloch succeeded Samuel Fessenden as secretary of the treasury and held that position until 1869, in that period successfully meeting that serious problem of paying off the Union troops at the close of the Civil war and bringing order the finances of the nation. Fifteen years later he again became secretary of the treasury, holding the portfolio until Cleveland’s first administration began; and the manner in which he was asked to take his old cabinet post probably stands unique in the history of American cabinet building. Although, following his retirement from the treasury in 1869, Mr. McCulloch retained his legal residence in Indiana, he nevertheless made his home in Washington a part of each year. He was engaged in some very important banking and financial work; his services were much sought by bankers generally, and he frequently was called upon to give professional counsel to the administration. Mr. McCulloch’s Washington home was well out in the suburbs, about half an hour’s drive from the city’s, boundary. One afternoon, shoftly after he had returned thither from business, he was informed by a servant that the president of the United States was In the reception room and had asked to see Mr. McCulloch. It was most unusual for a president to make such a call, and Mr. McCulloch was not a little surprised by the Intelligence that the president was awaiting him below. But while he was preparing to go down stairs and receive the president, the thought occurred to Mr. McCulloch that General Arthur was the first of all presidents to accept dinner invitations to private houses, and so probably, while passing the house, the president had been seized with a desire to pay a little social call on a former secretary of the treasury—that, in fact, the president was simply breaking another longstanding precedent by paying a personal call upon a private citizen. For a few minutes after the two men met and the president and Mr. McCulloch chatted Informally, the president speaking of the beauties of nature he had discovered them In the vicinity of the Soldiers’ Home, where he was fond of driving. But suddenly the president interrupted the flow of small talk. “Mr. McCulloch,” he said, “I have called upon you with a special burpose. I have come to say that Gen-

Practiced What He Preached

Elias Howe, of Sewing Machine Fame, Though Worth a Million, Enlisted as a Private in a Connecticut Regiment. X • 1 — “I knew the inventor of the sewing machine well. I remember as though it were yesterday the day Elias Howe came to Bridgeport, Conn., looking for a site for his sewing machine factory. He was a queer-looking man, very thick set, with, long curly hair, and that day, and often after, when I got to know him intimately, I was struck with the resemblance between him and the popular likenesses of Benjamin Franklin. That likeness was not only in Howe’s features, but also in his way of looking at life. He was as practical a man as Franklin himself, and, like Franklin, Howe was blessed with a great deal of common sense. “I could tell you many interesting stories of Howe," continued the late Abner L. Train, a member of Yale’s famous class of 1853, and afterwards a noted Connecticut editor; “how, for example, after he had won his patent fights In the courts of the United States his income increased in one year from about SSOO to $300,000. But the most Interesting story I know about Howe is connected with the Civil war. “When the war broke out —by that time Howe was one of the rich men of the country, and one of its leading* manufacturers—he became tremendously excited. Not even in the heat of his patent suits could any one remember having seen him so worked up; and he backed up his words in favor of the Union by giving his time freely to the cause and advancing a great deal of money to the state for the purpose of equipping its soldiers. He also contributed liberally to bounty funds, and, it is suspected, looked after the family of more than one ‘boy’ at the front “Well, things had gone on this way with Howe for about a year when he began to say vehemently to his friends that every able-bodied man under fifty years of age not only ought to give what time and money he could to the Union cause, but should also enlist

eral Gresham, who, as you know, has been tn my cabinet both as postmas-ter-general and as secretary of the treasury, is anxious to return to the bench. A vacancy has occurred in the United State's circuit court for the district of which Indiana is a part, and, much as I regret to lose General Gresham, I must heed his earnest request and nominate him for this vacancy. "Now, of course, you know it is customary when the president makes choice of a cabinet officer for him to get the views of his political friends respecting this or that man whom he may think of appointing. This is especially true of appointments for the treasury and the postoffice departments. But it pleases me to tell you that without consulting with any one I have decided to ask you to become General Gresham’s successor as secretary of the treasury. Moreover, you are the first person to whom I have mentioned this purpose, and I have thought that it would be the better part for me to call upon you and tender you here the office of secretary of the treasury Instead of sending for you to come and see me at the executive mansion. Ido not see how I can in any better way show you how sincerely desirous I am that you should enter my cabinet, as head of the treasury department” “The president’s unprecedented manner of offering me the appoint-

Two Lectures Made Into One

How Wendell Phillips Once Gave His Auditors a Double Portion for One Price Without Their Knowledge. As a manager of lecture lyceums In the days of their great popularity — that is, between 1860 and 1885 —the late John G. North was on intimate terms with most of the men and women of America who have gone down in history as our great platform orators. Wendell Phillips, John B. Gough, Anna E. Diekinson and others —he knew them all and managed them, and between him and Wendell Phillips there sprang up a personal relation that bordered on Intimate friendship. “Mr. Phillips after the close of the Civil war was, with the possible exception of John B. Gough, the most popular lecturer upon the American platform,” said Mr. North. “And yet, unlike most of those who were his rivals, he never wrote out a lecture. He always composed a lecture mentally, turning the subject over and over in his mind until he was thoroughly familiar with it. He therefore was not obliged to depend upon manuscript or memory when delivering a lecture. Naturally, he never deliv-

adding that he purposed at the first opportunity to practice what he preached. “At the time a regiment was being enlisted in western Connecticut for a three-year service. It was to be the Seventeenth Connecticut Volunteers. One day who should walk into a place where enlistment was going on for this regiment but Elias Howe. No one was surprised to see him there, for every one knew how zealous he was in behalf of the north. But when he walked up to the enlisting officer and said in a quiet voice that he desired to enlist for three* years every one was immediately seized with astonishment. ‘I want to enlist as a private,’ he added, and in silent amazement the pen was handed to him and he wrote his name with a firm hand upon the enlistment roll. “With the regiment this man, who was then worth at least a million dollars—five years later his estate was Inventoried at two millions —this man who was one of the famous inventors of the world, and one of the leading manufacturers of the new world, was mustered in as a private some time later and carried a knapsack on his back, and a musket over his shoulder to the front. But before he did that he gave further strong evidence of his love for the Union. There was some delay or difficulty about raising the needed funds to equip the Seventeenth properly—l suppose because of some procrastination at Washington. But whatever the cause of delay, when Howe heard of it he almost secretly advanced the needed funds. “When he marched away with the regiment Mr. Howe looked enthusiastically forward to the day when he might be able to do something for his country on the line of battle. But after he had been in service a little while the surgeons of the regiment discovered that he was not in the best of health—in fact, was not fit physically for military duty. So, to the deep disappointment of Mr. Howe, he wds compelled to retire from the army, in which, so far as I know, he was the only millionaire who chose to enroll himself as a private.” (Copyright, 1911, by E.

ment. and the grace with which he did so, made it impossible for me to refuse the honor,” said Mr. McCulloch, “although acceptance of it meant some business inconvenience and not a little pecuniary sacrifice." And so it came about ‘hat a few days later the politicians and bankers of the country were astonished when it was announced that Mr. McCulloch had been nominated as secretary of the treasury. Until then they had not received the slightest intimation of President Arthur’s purpose with respect to General Gresham’s successor. \- (Copyright, 1911, by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) Therein Lay the Tragedy. .. Tom Ochiltree walked into the house of representatives one afternoon with a sort of loose and careless appearance. Whereupon Judge Culberson proceeded to learn what had befallen his colleague. “What’s the matter, Tom? You seem pestered. Anything wrong?” “Yes,,” replied Ochiltree. “I’ve been down to Chamberlain’s playing poker all night and lost $3,000.” Culberson extended his sympathy, and then proceeded to enlighten Tom op the virtue of leading a sane, sober and frugal life. Ochiltree listened and seemed to be deeply impressed. Then, turning to his friend, remarked: "Well, judge, I do feel bad; very bad, indeed; and I want to thank you for your wholesome and friendly advice, but the thing that is pestering my mind is the disgraceful fact that S2O of the $3,000 was in cash.”

ered a lecture twice with the same phrasing. I once heard him say that although he had delivered his lecture on ‘The Lost Arts’ some two thousand times he had never delivered it twice precisely the same way. “Mr. Phillips’ habit of carrying his lectures about with him in his head and not In his carpet bag led to an amusing incident In Bennington, Vermont, where he had been engaged to appear by the - local lecture bureau. An hour or so after his arrival In the town the lyceum committee, three prominent townsmen, called upon him at the hotel.' “ ’Well, Mr. Phillips,’ said the chairman of the committee, ‘what lecture are you going to deliver to us tonight?’ “ ‘That is for you to say,’ Mr. Phillips replied. “ ‘Have you brought all your lectures with you?’ the chairman asked. “ ‘Yes, I always carry them with me.’ “Tn your carpet bag, I guess,’ the chairman said. “‘No, not in my carpet bag. I can ry them where they cannot be taken away from me. I am never anxious lest they be Jost.’ “ ‘Well, then, where do you carry them; Mr. Phillips?’ the chairman asked, curiously. “‘ln my head. I have got them all in my head, and you can make any selection you choose. I will deliver the lecture on “The Lost Arts,” or on “Daniel O’Connell,” or on “Toussaint 1 ’Ouverture*” the black man who created the republic of Hayti. Whichever one you select I shall be glad to deliver.’ “ ‘You have got all those lectures with you in your head?’ asked a shrewd looking little man, who up to that time had not spoken. “ ‘Yes, they are hll there,’ Mr. Phillips replied. “ ‘Well, now, if we can’t make a choice,’ said the little man, ‘why can’t you deliver two of them for the one price?’ “Mr. Phillips Instantly saw the humor of the proposition, and it appealed to him, so that he agreed to deliver two lectures, ‘The Lost Arts’ and KOuverture,’ instead of one and for the price of one. “And that he did a little while later, but as he was not tied down to any manuscript or any memorized form, and as he had wonderful skill in speaking and arrangement of his speech, he actually dovetailed those two lectures together—cutting out, of course, a portion from each lecture so as net to make the lecture too long so that no one in the audience realized that he was delivering two lectures. “Least of all did the little man of the committee realize it, for after the lecture was, over he said to Mr. Phillips: ‘I thought you were going to give us two lectures.’ “ ‘My friend, I did give you two lectures,’ was the reply. “‘You did?’ exclaimed the little mdn. *Why, it all sounded like one to me.’ And he looked sorely puzzled. “ ‘That’s exactly what I intended,* Mr. Phillips replied, laughing. And he felt that the humor of the situation abundantly compensated him for the delivery of two of his famous lectures at one time and for the price he customarily received for one lecture.” (Copyright, 1911, by EX J.

BIRD NENJF OLD Greek Mythology Tells of First Aero Experiments. Flew With Legendary Wings of Wax to Escape Wrath of An Ancient King—Criminal Made the First Flight. Washington, D. C. —The first aeronautical voyage history chronicles was that of the legendary Daedalus and his son. As mythology says, the father, Daedalus, had some kind of a tiff with Minos, his majesty the king of Crete. One sunny day when the kingly wrath had reached the boiling stage, Daedalus and his son, Icarus, decided a different climate would be good for them. So the wings were waxed on and they sailed away. But they rose so high that the heat from the sun melted the wax and Icarus dropped into the Icarian sea. Archytas of Tarentum made a pigeon of wood that flew in the fourth century, B. C. Simon, the magician, in 66 A. D., endeavored to do a little air experimentation and broke his neck. In the reign of the Emperor Comnenus a Saracen met a similar fate in Constantinople, and flying was abandoned for a few centuries. Joseph Montgolfier, a paper manufacturer of Annonay, France, discovered in 1782 that heat rarifled air and made it occupy a much larger space than it did before being heated. He made a small parallelepiped of taffeta and filled it with heated air, it rose to the roof of his apartment and he was convinced. A larger balloon was made, and on June 5, 1783, the first public ascension was made. No one who rode in this Montgolfier, as it was called, but the flight lasted ten minutes. To commemorate It a yearly festival was established. Hydrogen had been discovered by Cavendish six years before. It was found to have a specific gravity about one-sixteenth of that of air. Twc \U I I 1777 i TUP mrur a • Types of Early Balloons. months after Montgolfier’s triumph Professor Charles of Paris sent up an inflated hydrogen balloon which, after traveling 15 miles, was torn to pieces by the superstitious peasantry. A month later another Montgolfier was sent up containing a sheep, a cock and a duck. Louis XVI., king of France, witnessed the flight, and he demanded that a human should make an ascension. He ordered that a criminal should be sent up. The famous Pilatre pleaded for the honor, and it was granted. On October 15, 1783, the first known ascent was made by Rozier in a hot air bag, remaining up 4 minutes and 25 seconds. America caught the fever, and James Wilcox, a carpenter of Philadelphia, flew over the Schuylkill river in an aerostat made by the scientists,, Rittenhouse and Hopkins. Two other flights, one of 27 miles in a Montgolfier from Paris, and a shorter one by Professor Charles in a hydrogen balloon, closed the first year of real flying known to the world. In 1784 more than 50 ascents and voyages were made, the first trip in England being recorded In September of that year. A year later the English channel was crossed from Dover to Calais by Blanchard and Dr. Jeffries, an American. So it went. Flight after flight was made and the fad became more popular. >For almost a century the balloon scarcely altered in design, all of them were made with fantastic decorations and the willow basket was not used. However, many Improvements were effected in the method of inflation, the construction of the valve, the ripping panel and the quality of the scientific instruments used. Before 1862 ballooning was looked upon much as an amusement, and in order to defray the balloonists’ expenses the public had to pay to see their flights. The sizes of the balloons increased, previous balloons of the early days had been 20,000 cubic feet capacity, but one was constructed in Paris of 215,000 cubic feet in 1858. In 1869 a captive balloon of 450,000 cubic feet was made. However, most modern balloons did not run more than 80,000 cubic feet. That is the largest balloon which is allowed to compete for the James Gordon Bennett cup race. In 1836 the record flight was 500 miles in 18 hours. In 1870 balloons made a thousand miles and last year Hawley and Post established a new world’s record of about 1,200 miles, flying for the Bennett trophy from St. Louis. Slim Diet for Convict.

MUNYON’S WORK TM OF COY Big Success Shown by Numbers of Callers at Philadelphia Headquarters. LOCAL MAN TELLS OF REMARKABLE RELIEF FROM RHEUMATISM IN YEAR’S TIME. The apparent success with which Professor James M. Munyon, the worldfamous health authority, has been meeting has started much discussion. Every street car brings dozens of callers to his Laboratories at 53d and Jefferson Streets. Philadelphia, Pa., .and every mail brings thousands of letters from people inquiring about Munyon’s Famous Health Cult. Professor Munyon’s corps of expert physicians is kept busy seeing callers and answering tnj» mail. Peculiar to say, these physicians prescribe no medicins at all for 50 per cent, of the callers and mall inquiries; health hints, health advice and rules for right living gre given absolutely free. Medical advice and consultation absolutely free. Munyon’s followers seem to b<e enormous. Those who believe in his theories seem to think he possesses the most marvelous powers for the healing of all sorts of diseases. Munyon, himself, laughs at this. He says: “The hundreds of cures which you are hearing about every day in Philadelphia are not in any way due to my personal skill. It is my remedies, which represent the combined brains of the greatest medical specialists science has ever known, that are doing the work. I have paid thousands of dollars for a single formula and the exclusive right to manufacture it. I have paid tens of thousands of dollars for others of my various forms of treatment. This is why I get such remarkable results. I have simply bought tl»e best products of the best brains in the world and placed this knowledge within the reach of the general public." Among Munyon’s yesterday were many who were enthusiastic in their praise of the man. One of these said: “For six years I suffered with rheumatism. My arms and legs were afflicted so badly that I could hardly work, and I could not raise my arms to my head. The pain” was most severe tn the back, however, and I was in perfect tor- • ture. I tried in. many ways to get cured, or even to secure temporary relief, but nothing seemed to help me until I was persuaded by a friend to try Dr. Munyon’s Uric Acid Course. It was the most marvelously acting ‘remedy I ever saw. within a week the pain had most gone and inside of a month I considered myself entirely cured. I can now go out tn the worst weather—cold, wet or anything else, and I have not felt any suspicion of a return of the disease. I think that every person who has rheumatism and does not take the Uric Add Course is making a great mistake.” The continuous stream of callers and mall that comes to Professor James M. Munyon at his laboratories at 53d and Jefferson Sts.. Philadelphia. Pa., keeps Dr. Munyon and his enormous corps of expert physicians busy. Write today to Professor James M. Munyon personally.
