Uj Western or Northwest Caundn ll usually meont the great agricultural country west of Ontario and north ot Minnesota. North Dakota, and Mon tana. Part of it Is agricultural prai rie, treeless In placas, park Ilk In oth ers, part Is genuine plains, well adapt ed to catUe ranches; part requires Irri gation for successful tillage, uiost of It does not. The political dlTlslous of this region art the Province of Mani toba and the territorial district of As slnlbola, Saskatchewan, -Alberta and Atlmbaska. At present, however, thi latter Is too remote for Immediate prac tlcul purpoaea. The general character of tbe soil o Western Canada Is a rich, black, claj loam with a clay subsoil. Such a sol) Ij particularly rich in food for th wheat plant The subsoil la a clay, which retalna the winter frost until it Is thawed out by the warm rays ol the sun and drawn upward to atiuiu late the growth of tbe young wheat so that even in dry seasons wheat it a pood crop. Tbe clay soil also re talus the beat of the sun later in thi summer, and assists in the early rlpeu lug of the grain. It Is claimed that cultivation baa the effect of Increasing the temperature of the soil several de: grx, as well aa the air above it. Western Canada climate Is good cold in winter, hot in summer, but with cool night. Violent storms of any kinds are rare. The rainfall I not heavy. It varies with places, but averages about seventeen Inches. It fulls usually at tbe time the growiiiu crops need it. The Department of the Interior, Ot tawa, Canada, has agenta established at different points throughout the United States, who will be pleased to forward an Atlas of Western Canada, and give such other information as to' railway rate, etc., as may be required. That agriculture In Western Canada pays Is shown by the number of testi monials given by farmers. The fol lowing Is an extract made from a let ter from a farmer near Moose Jaw: "At the present time 1 own sixteen hundred acres of land, fifty horses and u large pasture fenced, containing a thousand acres. These horses run out all winter and come in in the spring quite fat. A man with money judiciously expended will make a com petence very shortly. I consider in the last six yeara the increase in tbe value of my land has netted ine forty thousand dollars." Concerning Husbfcuda. "According to most women," remarked Sourmind, "no husband is good enough for liis wife." "That's true," retorted Cynicus; "he's only good enough for somebody elie's wife." Cincinnati Times-Star.

Home mysterious death of cattle in Alderney have been traced to a curi ous source. Mercury was found In the dead animals, and also in many mead ows and gardens, aud the presence of the poison. Is attributed to a recent ex plosion of a factory for fulminate of mercury. The funics from the explo sion were carried to a distance by a strong gale. As a result of the imiuiry, the manufacture of explosives lu the Island has been prohibited,' A still unexplained effect of the elii trlc light somewhat resembles tiilhl sunburn and sunstroke. The heat of the electric arc employed In the re ducing furnace Is so concentrated that It melts steel like tallow, but the ther mometer a dozen yards uwiy Is scarce ly affected. Kven at this distance from the heut. however, persons experience a burning of the face and other ex posed skin much like that produced by Intensely hot sunshine. The nkln be comes deeply bronzed, 11 nil there Is temporary blindness In natural light, with pnln In the eyes, followed by headache 11 ml insomnia. There Is now In operation, on a com mercial scale, at Tort Chester. X. Y., hu artificial camphor facto1 y, the prod uct of which is Intended to compete lu the market with the-uatuiiil substance. It Is maintained that it does not differ, except iu the manner of Its origin, from that extracted, from the camphor trees of Formosa. Artitlilul camphor is made from essential oils derived from turpentine. Chemically tiie only difference between turpentine and camphor Is the possession by each molecule of the latter of one atom of oxygen which is lucking iu the former. By a chemical process the needed oxy gen Is supplied. Three-fourths of the whole supply of camphor is used in tne arts, and one-fourth lu medicine. The people culled the Tod us, living lu the Nllglri Hills, India, have a curi ous religious ritual evolved out of the orilnnry operations of the !a!ry. The priest, says Dr. Y II. It I vers, is the dairyman, aud the temple Is the dairy. Only the milk of the sacred buffalo is churned in the dairy temple. The milk 3t buffaloes that are not "sacred" is churned in the front part of the huts iu which the people live. The -dairy temples are of different degrees of sanctity corresponding to the differ ent ijegrecs of suuctHy of the buffaloes tended lu each. Kven the vessels used In a dairy tem ple vary In sanctity, those that con tain the milk being more sucred than thos-: that only receive the products of the churning. The X-rays of It. ISIondlet should In terest us especially because they are 40 common about us. They were dis covered while the light from a Wels-biK-h burner was being concentrated by a quartz lens on a sulphide of cal cium screen, the lens causing the lu minosity of the screen to persist after the light was removed. They are now known to exist not only iu the Incan descent gas, but also lu the ordinary gas mime burning without a chimuey, and iu the radiation from a red-hot plate of sliver or talc, aud they excite adio-actlvity in various substances, such us a plate of lead. The invisible ays cuu lie detei-ted by the slight In crease of luminosity of u phosphores cent screen or of a very small gas flame.

ANIMAL INSTINCT. l'reaident'a Opinion on tbe Queatlon of the Day Among Naturaliats, 1 am convinced there is nothing In the notion that animals conciously teach their young. Is It probable thut u mere animal reflects upon the fu ture any more than it does upon the pust? Is it solicitous about the future well-being of its off-spring any more than It Is curious ubout Its ancestry? Persons who think they see the lower aulmnls training their young supply something to their observations con sciously or unconsciously; they reud their own thoughts or preconceptions into what they see. Yet so trained n naturalist and experienced u hunter as President Itoosevelt differs with me lu this matter. In a 'letter which I am permitted to quote he says: f "I have not the slightest doubt that there is a large amount of unconscious teaching by wood-folk of their off spring. In unfrequented places I huve bad the deer watch me with almost as much indifference as they do now In the Yellowstone Purk. lu fre quented pluces, where they ure hunt ed, young deer and young mountain sheep, on the other baud, 11 ml of course young wolves, bobcuts, and Un like, ure exceedingly wary and shy when the sight or smell of man Is con cerned. .Fudoubtedly this is due to the fact thut from their curliest moments of going ubout they leuru to Imitate tbe unflagging watchfulness of their parents, aud by the exercise of some associative or Imitative quality they grow to imitate and then to share the alurm displayed by the older ones at the smell or presence of man. A young di-er that has never seen u man feels no instinctive alarm at his presence from merely accompanying its mother, if tlu luttc-r feels such alarm. I should not regard this as schooling by the parent any more thnn 1 should so re gard the instant flight of twenty ante lope who had not seen a hunter, be cause the t wcuty-flrst has "ecu blui and bus Instantly run. Hoinetlmes a deer or un antelope will deliberately give an alarm cry at sight of something btraiie. This cry at once puts every deer or antelope 011 the alert; but they will lie just as much nn hn alert If they witness nothing bu: i exhibition of fright and flight on the ptrt of the first deer or antelope, wltluut there being any conscious effort on Its part to express Hlarm, Moreover. I am Inclined to think that on certain occasions, rare though they may be, there Is n conscious effort at tench lug. I have myself known of one setter dog which would thrash Its puppy soundly If the latter carelessly or stupidly flushed a bird. Something similar may occur lu the wild state among such Intelligent beasts as wolves and foxes. Indeed. I ( have some reason to Ixdieve that with both of these animals it does ixvnr that is. that there Is conscious as well as un conscious teaching of the young In such matter as traps." Probably the President and I differ more In the meaning we attach to tbe Kanie words than anything else. In a subsep.ieuut letter he says: "I think the chief difference lictween you and ine In the matter Is one of tei-mln.iiogy. When I speak of unconscious teaching I realty mean simply acting lu a man ner which arouses Imitation." Imitation is 110 doubt the key to the whole matter. The animals iic.con sciously teach their young by their ex ample, nnd in no other way. From .lohn Burroughs' "Current Misconcep tion In Xutural History" In the Century. MANY SYSTf MS ARE IN USE. ttailwaya in Kiiglnml Are Opcratail I n ter a Vurlrty of Condition. , It in not easy for an American rail road iiuui to conceive of the conditions exis .ng lu the British Islunds. The P.uglish railway systems total only '-'.-(Nit) miles, let this Comparatively small mileage Is the property of -MO com panies, more than half of which have their separate administration and exec utive. The others ure "leased and worked lines." Allotting an average of eight directors apiece to each of lhe 1L'. Independent companies, the Kng llsh railways support 1.000 directors, whose fees can hardly lc less than $l,U."s a year each. The railroads of India cover about 2l.0o) miles. Yet Thomas Robertson, the expert who recently reported to the British government on Indian rail way administration, says that the task of supervising the lines of that vast country -might safely be Intrusted to n board of three qiiulltled men. assisted by a secretary, a chief Inspector and a iiiiuui - of inspectors and auditors. Three experts with a Btnall stuff are considered by Mr. Kobertson capable of performing duties of uIhiui Hie same character us those for which in F.ng huid are employed 1,KH umtitcur di rectors with their secretaries and as sistant secretaries, accountants, audi tors, clerks, messengers, etc. If only the sum of fl.'-T.o.ooo paid away annually In fees to railway di rectors were available for a centralized ru.iwuy board it would be possible to attract the ablest men by offering the largest known salaries and yet make u saving. The saving by "standurdUutlon" Is also to bo considered. The Illinium n roads. 17,000 miles, are to unify the!: machinery so thut all "parts" of roll ing stock shall be interchangeable. The consolidation of American roads bus gone much farther than In Britain. The Yanderbllt and Pennsylvania sys tems contain ubout L'O.ttoo miles each, either one of them nearly equaling the 'J'J.ooo miles of all Kngland. And though the individual roads In these systems huve In some cases their sep arate boards, these usually couslst of nractlcullv tbe same men. Many Im portant lines are also "leased and worked." Against the 2:iO systems of '-'2,000 miles less than lot) miles to a line in F.nglund the Yanderbllt and Pepiisylvaniu systems Include together less than twenty component lines, or an average of more than 'J.ooo miles 11 line. The longest single line in the Fnited States, the Southern Pucllle, bur over fi.rsM) miles of track. For Their Htonmuhs' Hake.

In fact, I felt worae than before, and came ta the conclusion that the trouble was not with my eyta. but with my head and that it must be catarrh. Aa aa many of my frlenda had used Peruna with benefit tot this trouble, I thought I would try it. I waa not sorry that I did ao, for io a short time I began to improve, and In four weeks my eyes were in splendid condition, mi general health was much improved and all the catarro of the head was gone.
