FRE LAND FOR SETTLERS Western Canada To-Day the Country of Oppor tunity for Millions He would have been called a dream er of Die most Imaginative class who, thirty-five years ago,? when the North west country becamo a possession of Canada, prophesied tho present pros perity In the lapse of so short a period of time. Three transcontinental rail ways havo been financed through on tho ample asauranco there is business In the west to warrant their construc tion, nnd resources to liquidate tho consequent Indebtedness. Manitoba In the eastern portion of tho country was created a provlnco a year after tho purchaso from the Hud eon Bay Company in 1870.' In 1882, tho western country was tapped by tho extended main lino of tho C. P. It. That year also territorial government waB established, the remaining out lying country being converted Into four territories Alberta, Asslniboia, Saskatchewan and Athabasca with a central government for all at Iteginn. Tho fow thousand people of those days havo grown into tho half million of to-day. Lot us now note some of tho evl- V- Reaplng Record donees of advancement. Tho first uusnei or wneat was shipped In 1882, In fact tho first Bhlpment from Mani toba, merely as a sample, was made in 1877. In 1904 there wero under all crops, excepting hay, 1,576,000 acres In the western provinces, producing 17,250,350 bushels ot wheat, 18,250,040 bushels of oats, and 2,350,420 buBhels of barley, realizing a total of about $18,GOO,000 for tho farmers. In Manitoba there were grown in 1904 41.C00.0OO bushels of wheat and other farm products In proportion. The first mile of railway was built In tho country In 1S80. and to-day thero are over 0,000 miles of road in opera tion, and further extensions aro going ahead as fast as men and money can build them. Thero aro two trunk lines In tho country, tho C. P. It. and tho Canadian Northern, with tho Grand Trunk commencing Its trans continental line. In addition to these trunk Hues, all systems aro extending branches to all sections where thero are settlements to patronize them. Tho grain elevator development Is another assurance of the wonderful expansion of tho country, the one fourth of tho whole area, or about 95, 000,000 acres of the country traversed by railways being now fairly supplied by elevators. In all thero aro 1.015 of them In tho country with a combin ed capacity of 27,083,000 bushels and erected at a cost of over $55,000,000. ' In addition to these, elevators at the head of tho lakes have storage capac ity of 18,200,000. Fourteen years ago the entire storage capacity of tho elevators was 7.G28.000 bushels, to-day it Is 41,000.000 nnd increasing yearly from five to ten million bushels. What the settlement of tho country will bo In tho next ten years may well be imagined from tho fact that last year tho Immigration was over 133.00U souls. There are those who believe tho grain-producing nrea of tho country must b'e limited, but results tell a t :. w & t . . r - a - c 1WTB I I mM B . J -fl v-i.l. . " . ...' Threshing No. 1 Hard Wheat In Western Canada. different story. In the northern Peace River country, 900 miles north of the International boundary, wheat Is grown every year 62 to 65 lbs. to the bushel, from 20 to 30 bushels to tho acre, and matures In 107 days from sowing. The length of day and there fore the greater amount of summer heat in tho 24 hours fully compensate for tho disadvantages of latitude. As thero are already thrifty settlements, with their grist mills, large fields of grain, numerous herds of live stock in that north country, It only requires tho extension of the railways now push- Business in the Home. The adoption of business principles In tho home is not only one of the ways to obtain happiness, it is the only way, says Good Housekeeping. Wo are speaking now of the average house hold composed of an average man and an average woman. And here Is the first step toward happiness: First, the husband must have the absolute right to refuse money to the wife; second, the wife must have the absolute right to demand money from the husband. It doesn't look like affection, It doesn't seem connubial. But analyze it. I Ing on to Its confines to bring It to vflin frnnt no n flnlrl fnn nnt ..! and profitable settlement. Tho whole country embraces an area of over 385,000,000 acres and de ducting water and broken land thore 1b plenty of wheat growing territory to produco twenty times over the requirements of Great Britain. As wheat can bo grown at $7.60 per acre with wages to the men doing their own work besides, and as year In nnd year out tho yield and price are twenty bushels at CO cents, the profits aro $4.G0 per acre. As live stock doubles every three years and grows like wheat while the farmer Is sleeping, wo expect that this will nlwnys bo one of tho leading feat ures of tho agricultural Industry. As tho Pacific coast or warm winds molt tho snow in Alberta almost ns rnnlrflv . as it falls, tho herds of live stock live out on tho open prairie tho entire year through and aro In good condi tion every spring. Tho nativo grasses mu iiifeiuj uuiiuiuun tiuu luutiu muir , qualities tho whole wintor through, Crop at Battleford. i making winter feed as Inexpensive as summer pasturage, As $2,835,516 worth of llvo stock was marketed in that country In six months of last year an Idea may bo formed of tho proportions It may be led to attain when the country be comes fully settled up. Dairying is tho third leading busi ness of the Northwest farmer, and' may, llko tho others bo developed while tho farmer Is sleeping. It Is found that on account of tho cost of farm help, and to avert the expense of erecting sultablo buildings for tho purpose, the co-operative system Is decidedly tho best. Under it the en tire management is In tho hands of tho government under expert opera tives, though control of sales, etc., rests with the patrons. Tho farmers simply deliver their milk or cream, usually tho latter, nt tho dairies, re ceive monthly advances, and bal ances of proceeds of sales at the closo of the year. The schools are free and non-denominational national. Thore is no tax for attendance, the government defrays tho greater part of the cost of sup port ot a highly certificated staff of teachers. There are schools in all country districts where there aro a dozen pupils to attend them and the tax is rarely more than $4 a year on every quarter section. As each prov ince Alberta and Saskatchewan un der tho new provincial autonomy will receive at tho start from tho Federal government $1,100,000 a year, thero will bo. but very inconsiderable taxa tion for any and all provincial pur poses. Fuel is tho bugbear of many of tho prairie countries. In Western Canada, however, thero are but fow districts without an ample supply of timber, and as coal of tho best quality Is evorywhero present no farmer being more than 200 miles distant from a mine, nnd tho price never more than $4.50 per ton to him at his door, It Is AO -v 3" . - readily seen the fuel problem 1b al ready solved. As shown above the railways are everywhere tapping new districts where free Jand is ofTered to all re gardless of "religion or nationality. Even In some of tho older parts there is yet plenty of free land, Manitoba having 1,500,000 acres of it. The land Is there for the asking, and the next ten years will see a large area of It everywhere dotted with im proved farms, grain elevators and a rich, prosperous and pre-eminently contented population Last Shot Brounht Death. In the battle of the Sea of Japan tho Russian vessel Borodino contin ued fighting till she sunk. What was practically her last shot struck tho Asahi astern, killing or mortally wounding Lieut. Morlshlta and seven others. Lieut. Morishita's leg was shot off, but, using his sword a a crutch, ho managed to reach tho deck There he nsked for some paper on which to writo a farewell message to tho Japauese navy. He scrawled the words: "Banzai! I die a glorious death," and fell back dead. THE NEWS IN NEBRASKA NATIONAL ENCAMPMENT Q. A. It.

A very dear old person, who has no rogular church homo, but who wan ders abroad and takos In tho cream of pulpit oratory, was complaining tho other day about his hard luck. "It's mighty queer," ho said, "but It would almost seem to mo as It it wnB a put up Job. It must bo fate, though. Every tlmo I go to church nowadays thoy bring a double collec tion on mo. I don't mind tho usual plato a bit, but this matter of slipping' in extra demands for gold Jars mo. It is driving mo from tho church habit altogether." "Novor mind," said tho dear old per son's dearest friend. "Como to our church and you'll bo troated squarely. We'vo got a good minister nnd good habits." Last Sunday tho man visited his friend's church. And for tho first tlmo In tho church's history thero wero two collections.

How Twain Got Rich. Mark Twain says that in his earlier days be did not enjoy the exception al prosperity which camo later In his career. It Is commonly tho lot of gen ius to suffer neglect at first, and ex perience did not affect his abldhfg good nature. In a conversation with Dean Howells on ono occasion tho sub ject of literature vicissitudes was broached by the humorist. "My difficulties taught me some thrift," ho observed. "But I never knew whether it was wiser to spend my last nickel for a cigar to smoke or for an apple to devour." "I am astounded," observed Mr. Howells, "that a person ot so little decision should meet with so much worldly success." Mark Twain nodded very gravely. "Indecision about spending money," he said, "is worthy of cultivation. When I couldn't decide what to buy with my last nickel, I kept It, and so became rich." Success. Tho Joker's Fate. It was a cad-cyed humorist. Who sate him down to coax From out his brain a funny twist Or two to tickle folks In abort, to write some Jokes. The day was very warm "Gee whiz!" Said he, "What shall I do?" I'll roast the fiend who asks you, 'Is It hot enough for your I wonder If that's newt" lie sighed, and took another sheet Of paper, and he wrote About the man you often meet. Who always rocks the boat. ('Twas old enough to vote!) He wrote about old shoes and rice, And Mrs. Younsbrlde's breaks, About the man who brings the ice In microscopic cakes. And grecn-frult stomach-aches! And people camo and slew him there, Whose jokes had made them 111, And burled him with tender care And gladly paid the bill. (He lies at Chestnut Hill!)

Thousands ot sufforors know that th reason why they aro irritnblo and de pressed and nervous and slecplosa Is be cause their food doos not digest, but how to gfltrid ot tho difficulty is tho puzzllugr question. Good digestion calls for strong diges tive organs, and strength comes from a lupply ot good rich blood. For this reason Mr. Enyssou took Dr. Williams' Fink Pills for tho euro of Indigestion. " They havo been my best doctor," he says. " I was suffering from dyspopsln. Tho pnltis ia my stomaoh after meals wore Almost unbearable. My sleep was very irregular and my complexion won sallow. As tho result of using eight boxos of Dr. Williams' Pink Pllb), nbont tho morits of which I learned from frlouds lu Franco, I havo escaped all thoso troubles, nudamnblongaiu to tako pleasure in eating." A vory simple story, bnt if it bad not boon for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills it might havo been n trnglo ono. When dis comfort begins with eating, fills up the intervals botween nionls with piiln, and prevents sleep nt night, thero cortaiuly cannot bo muoh plcosuro in living. A final general breaking down must bt merely n question of ttmo. Mr. Joseph Baysson is a nativo of Aix-los-Baius, France, but now resides nt No. 2430 Larkiti street, Sou Frauolsoo, Cal. He Is ouo of n great number who can testify to tho roumrkablo efficacy of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in tho troatmoat of obstinate disorders of tho stomach. If you would got rid of uausea, pala or burning ia tho stonmch, vertigo, nor voasuoss, insomnia, or any of tho other misorles ot a dyspoplio, get rid of tho weakness ot tho digestive orgaus by the usoof Dr. Williams' Pluk Pills. They aro sold by druggists everywhere. Proper diet is, of course, a great aid ia forwarding recovery once began, and a little book, "What to Eat and How to Eat," may be obtained by any one who makos a request for it by writing to the Dr. Williams Medical Oo., Schenectady, N.Y. This valuablo diet book contains an important chapter on tho simples means lor the euro of constipation. Cause of Headaches.

Wife Made Wise Change In Food. Change ot diet Is the only way to really cure stomach and bowel trouble. A woman says; "My husband had dyspepsia when wo were married and had 'suffered from it for several years. It was al most impossible to find anything ha .could eat without bad results. "I thought this was largely due to the uso of coffee and persuaded him to discontinue it Ho did so, and be gan to drink Postum Food Coffee. Tho change did him good from the begin nlng, his digestion improved; ho suf fered much less from his nervousness, and when ho added Grape-Nuts food to his diet he waB soon entirely cured. "My friend, Mrs. , of Vicks- burg (my former home) had become a nervous wreck also from dyspepsia. Medlslnes had no effect, neither did travel help her. On my last visit home,, some months ago, I persuaded her to use Grape-Nuts food. 8he was In do spalr, and consented. She stuck to lb until It restored her health so com pletely that she is now the most enthu siastic friend of Grape-Nuts that I ever know. Sho eats It with cream or dry, Just as It comes from tho package keeps It In her room and eats It when ever sho feels like It. "I began eating Grape-Nuts food,, myself, when my baby was two months old, and I don't know what I should havo done without It. My ap petite was gone, I was weak and nerv ous and afforded but very little nour ishment for the child. Tho Grape-Nuts food, of which I soon grew very fond, speedily set all this right again, and the baby grew healthful, rosy and boautliul as a mother could wish. Ho. Is two years old now and eats Grape Nuts food himself. I wish every tired young mother knew ot the good that Grape-Nuts would do her." Names given by Postum Co., Battla Creek, Mich. Thore'u a reason.
