which is proving very advantageous to
tho settlers of North Alberta Canada
and Is truly a boon to the farmers is
the establishment of creameries by the
Government at regular distances apart
The Government furnishes the entire
plant puts It in and operates it without
direct cost to the farmer From the
sale of the butter the Government re
tains 5 cents per pound the balance
going to the farmer This is continued
for three years when the Government
turns over the plant and business to the
farmers giving them a clear title of It
Thus these creameries are put In at a
minimum cost to the farmer and paid
for in a way that he least feels it When
we were there butter was selling at 21
and 22 cents per pound Cheese fac
tories were being established too along
the railroad and much of the freight
loaded on the cars on our return trip
consisted of butter and cheese as it
was in the best season for milk The
produce found a ready market in the
mining and lumbering towns and dis
tricts beyond the Rockies through the
British Columbia country where it
was we were told difficult to supply
tho demand
The Klondike is another field now
open to the Western Canadian farmer
for all produce of the farm and the
officials in the Department of the In
terior Ottawa Canada are kept busy
sending out literature describing this
great agricultural country The agents
of the Government throughojjf the
United States are also supplied with
literature which they distribute free

FLIGHT OF BIRDS
The Speed of Trucks and Swallows on
the Wins
There has been some difference In
the conclusions oi observers as to the
relative height above the earth and
more especially as to relative velocity
of movement in the semi annual flight
north or south of some of our migra
tory birds
Judging from all that has been ob
served it seems probable that the ve
locity of some of these far rnivelers
has been exaggerated
Careful measurements by means of
the cloud theodolites used by the ob
servers at the Meteorological station
at Blue Hill in Milton a few miles
south of Boston have shown that the
observed flocks of northward going
wild geese wore at an elevation of 960
feet above the sea level and that the
velocity of flight was 443 miles an
hour
This also is about the height -at
which a flock of wild ducks flew and
their velocity was 478 miles an hour
These velocities are nowhere the
speed with which wild ducks have been
credited for these swift birds have
been said to fly at a rate exceeding 100
miles an hour
That ducks do at times exceed the
rate noted by the Blue Hill observers
seems very probable but it is by no
means certain that they ever fly at
such a velocity as 1008 miles an hour
as some observers have asserted
Just what velocity would be requisite
in a duck striking the heavy projecting
glass of a lighthouse to drive his bill
down his throat may bo a difiicult
problem but tho fact itself has been
noted in tho case ol at least a num
ber of ono flock qf duoks that had been
flying southward on tiieirautumnal mi
gration and were picked up at the foot
of the light house tower on Anastasia
Island near St Amjustine Fla
Sweeping in tho darkness of a cloudy
night he ducks had followed the in
creasing beam from the light and
dashed down upon the thick but clear
glass wall with the effect above men
tioned
Very likely a velocity of GO miles an
hour would suffice to drive a ducks
bill down its throat and it may be a
question whether the duck ever really
fly at a much greater velocity than
sixty to seventy miles an hour
There are other migrating birds no
tably the swallows that seem to fly
at least as swiftly as the wild duck
As to elevation it seems probable that
few migrating flocks of any kind travel
at a greater height except in going over
mountains than atout 1000 to 1500
The smallness and indistinctness of
high flying flock of geese seemingly
so far up as almost to blend with the
gray sky and to render their far cries
almost inaudible would all be produced
if these large birds were flying at an
elevation no greater than 1500 to 1800
feet

ARE YOU TO LIVE IN ALASKA
Conic IJcquircinentH that Will Ec
Found Indispensable
The universal article of diet in that
country depended upon and indispen
sable is bread or biscuit And to make
the bread and biscuit either in the
camp or upon the trail yeast cannot
oe used it must be baking powder
md the powder manufactured by the
processes of the Royal Baking Powder
3ompany miners and prospectors have
itarned is the only one which will
stand in that peculiar climate of cold
md dampness and raise the bread and
biscuit satisfactorily
These facts are very important for
every one proposing to go to Alaska
and the Yukon country to know for
should he be persuaded by some outfit
ter to take one of the cheap brands of
baking powder it will cost just as
much to transport it and then when
he opens it for use after all his labor
in packing it over the long and difiicult
route he will find a solid caked mass
or a lot of spoiled powder with no
strength and useless Such a mistake
might lead to the most serious results
Alaska is no place in which to experi
ment in food or try to economize with
our stomach For use in such a cli
mate and under the trying and fa
tiguing conditions of life and labor in
that country everything must be the
best and most useful and above all it
is imperative that all food supplies
shall have perfect keeping qualities
It is absurd to convey over such difii
cult and expensive routes an article
that will deteriorate in transit or that
will be found when required for use to
have lost a great part of its value
There is no better guide to follow in
these matters than the advice of those
who have gone through similar expe
rience Mr McQuesten who is called
the father of Alaska after an expe
rience of years upon the trail in the
camp and in the use of every kind of
supply sa3s We find in Alaska that
the importance of a proper kind of bak
iug powder caunot be overestimated
A miner with a can of bad baking pow
der is almost helpless in Alaska We
have tried all sorts and have been
obliged to settle down to use nothing
but the Royal It is stronger and car
ries further at first but above all
things it is the only powder that will
endure the severe climatic changes of
the arctic region
It is for the same reasons that the
U S Government in its relief
s and Peary the famous arctic
traveler have carried the Royal Baking
Powder exclusively
The Royal Baking Powder will not
cake nor lose its strength either on
board ship or in damp climates and
is the most highly concentrated and
efficient of leavening n gents Ilence it
i indispensable to every Alaskan out
fit It can be had of any of the trading
companies in Alaska but should the
miner procure his supplies before leav
n g he should resist every attempt of
rne outfitter to palm off upon him any
of tbo other brands of baking powder
tor they will spoil and prove the cause
of great disappointment and trouble

Elanse Hatfield one of the widely

gang
She was in Kanawaha County some
time ago instituting a Rebekah lodge
and on her way home stopped over
Sunday with the family of a merchant
in Charleston Hanse Hatfield was in
the city at the same time and was the
guest of the merchant being there on
a purchasing tour On Sunday evening
Hatfield asked to be shown the Meth
odist Episcopal church and on being
informed that there was no service in
that church that evening accepted the
invitation to go with the merchants
family to the Presbyterian church
Upon arriving at the church natfield
took the merchant to one side and told
him the Hatfields had such a bad impu
tation that he always carried a weapon
He then proceeded to open a hand grip
he was carrying To the chagrin of the
party he took therefrom an old and
much used Bible and holding it up so
those near could see it said
This is the only weapon I ever carry
and to get along well and live close to
the feet of Jesus Christ one must carry
it constantly and use it often The
Bible was all there was in the grip

top is level and has a cup like cavity
On entering the flesh this bullet acts
like a punch cutting a clean rouud
hole which does not close The bullet
begins to expand immediately after en

inches it produces a jagged hole three

whether its use would not be a breach

The Monitor a newspaper published
at Meaford Ont Canada first discov
ered this case two years ago and pub
lished it at length which now seems
owing to the cure of it to be a miracle
The facts were so remarkable that many
people doubted the truth of tihem They
said It is too remarkable it cannot
possibly be true the paper is mis
taken and the man although he may
think himself cured will soon relapse
into his former condition etc etc The
accuracy of its report called in question
the Monitor determined to find out defin
itely whether the facts were as stated
and whether the man would really stay
cured They accordingly kept a close
watch on the case for two years after the
first article appeared and have just now
food The doctors called the disease
spinal sclerosis and all said he could not
live
For three years he lingered in this con
dition Tiien by some friends he was ad
vised to take Dr Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People He took them and there
was a slight change The first thing
noted was a tendency to sweat freely
This showed there was some lire left in
his heljuless body Next came a little
feeling in his limbs This extended fol
lowed by prickling sensations until at
last the blood began to course freely
naturally and vigorously through his
body and the helplessness gave way to
returning strength the ability to walk
returned and he was restored to his old
time health
in even better health than when I gavt
you the first interview
Do you still attribute your cure to the
use of Dr Williams Pink Pills V asked
the Monitor
Unquestionably I da was the reply
Doctors had failed as had also the nu
merous remedies recommended by my
friends Nothing I took had the sghtest
pffect upon me until I began the use oi
Dr Williams Pink Pills To this won
derful medicine I owe my release from
the living death I have since recommend
ed these pills to many of my friends and
the verdict is always in their favor 1 shall
always bless the day I was induced to
take them
Such is the history of one of the most
remarkable cases of modern times Can

any one say in the face of such testi
mony that Dr Williams Pink Piiis are
not entitled to the careful consideration
of any suffering man woman or child V Is
not the case in truth a miracle of modem
medicine
To make the evidence complete we pub
lish above a facsimile cut of the check
received by Mr Petch from the Canadian
Mutual Life Association being the
amount due him for total disability It is
unnecessary to add that this life insur
ance association did not pay this large
amount of money to Mr Petch except
after the most careful examination of his
condition by their medical experts They
must have regarded him as forever in
curable
