50,000 NEEDED TO
HARVEST WESTERN
CANADA'S CROP
Take 160,000 Alto
gether to Take Care
of Yield of Prairie
Provinces.
One hundred and sixty-two thousand
farm hands will be required this year
to hnrvcfit tho grain crops of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Of
this number the local help will pro
Tldo about 112,000, which will leavo
nbout 50,000 extra farm hands. Thero
Is, therefore, a great demand for this
class of laborers In all parts of West
erti Canada. In order to meet tho re
quirements It has been arranged to
grant very low railway rates from all
boundary points reached by Canadian
railways. In order to secure these
rates It will bo necessary for you to
call on one of the following authorized
agents of tho Canadian government:
M. V. Mclnnes, 176 Jefferson Avenue,
Detroit, Michigan; C. A. Laurlor, Mar
quette, Michigan; J. 8. Crawford,
Syracuse, N. Y.; Thos. llctberlngton,
Room 202, 73 Tremont Street, Boston,
Mass.; H. M. Williams, 413 Gardner
Uldg., Toledo, Ohio; Geo. Alrd, 210
Traction-Terminal Dldg., Indianapolis,
Indiana; C. J. Droughton, Room 412
Merchants Loan & Trust Bldg., Chi
cago, III.; Geo. A. Hall, 2nd Floor, 125
Second Street, Milwaukee, Wis.; 15.
T. Holmes, 315 Jackson Street, St.
Paul, Minn.; Chas. Pilling, Clifford
Block, Grand Forks, N. D.; J. M. Mac
tachlnn, Box 197, Watcrtown, S. D.;
W. V. Bennett, Room 4, Boo Bldg.,
Ornuha, Neb.; W. II. Rogers, 125 West
itth Street, Kansas City, Mo.; BonJ.
Davles, Room 6, Dunn Block, Great
Falls, Montana; J. 11. Carbonncau, Jr.,
217 Main Street, Biddeford, Me.; J. N.
Grieve, Auditorium Building, Spokane,
Wash.
This will givo to intending harvest
laborers a splendid opportunity to look
over Iho magnificent wheat fields or
Western Canada and will givo them
the best evidence that can bo secured
of the splendid character of that coun
try tram the farmer's standpoint.
There will bo at least 200.000,000
bushels of wheat harvested within tho
area of tho three provinces above
named this year and It is expected
that the yield will run from 15 to 25
bushels per aero. Many farmers, this
year, will net, as a result of their
labors, as much as f 8 to $10 per aero
and many of them will deposit as
profits ns much as 98,000 to $10,000.
The wide publicity that has been
given to the excellent crop that Is be
ing raised in central Alberta and
southern Alberta, central Saskatche
wan and southern Saskatchewan, and
also in Manitoba, will increase tho
price of lands in these three provinces
from $3 to $5 per acre and the man
who was fortunate enough to secure
lands at from $12 to $20 per acre will
have reason for gratification that he
exercised sufficient forethought to in
vest, whllo the man who was fortu
nate enough to secure a homestead of
1C0 acres free will also have a greater
reason to feel pleased.
Notwithstanding the great addition
to the acreage this year over last and
the largo crop that will be ready 'for
harvest there is no reason to becomo
alarmed that tho harvest will not bo
reaped successfully. There will be a
great demand for these low rates dur
ing the next couple of months; bo
sure to make your application to any
of the ngents above mentioned that
may bo in your territory at as early
a date as possible. Harvesting will
commence about the 25th of July and
contlnuo for flvo or six weeks, when
threshing will begin and there will b
plenty of work until November.
Too Dangerous.
In the struggling days of Tuskogce,
Booker T. Washington found that he
would have to use an old chicken
house' for a schoolroom.
"Uncle," he said to an old colored
man, "I want you to come down at
nine o'clock tomorrow morning and
help me clean out a henhouse."
"Law now, Mr. Washington," the
old 'man expostulated, "you-all don't
want to begin clcanln' out no hen
nous roun' yere In do day time."

FATTEN FOWLS FOR MARKET
Food 8hould Be Given at Regular
Hours and Then Only What the
Birds Will Eat Up Clean.
Chickens for broiling or frying
should be fed extra for two or three
weeks to get them fat, with plenty of
good, solid meat on breast and thighs.
Range poultry Is never classed as
rlrat-class market poultry.
Put six to eight chickens in a clean,
roomy coop; placo coop In shed,
which should bo kept quiet and mod
erately dark. Give first morning feed
of cormueal mixed with milk; Just
what thoy will eat with a relish. At
nine o'clock give a second meal of
baked bread mixed with boiled vege
tables. At noon givo cracked corn
mixed with a little wheat. At 5 p. m.
give cnrnmeal mixed with milk, They
should bo fed at regular hours and
given only what they eat up with a
relish at each meal. No loud should
bo allowed to lie In tho coop, ns thny
lose their nppetlte when food Is left
in the coop to turn sour.
Hour food Ib not fit to feed.
Wash out the can every morning
This is necessary and should not bo
neglected. Give a little gravel or
charcoal about twice n week. Give
milk instead of water. By this meth
od chickens may be fattened In two
weeks' time. Chickens thus fed will
mnke prime market poultry and will
commnnd an extra price.

Value of Grit and Charcoal.
It pnj'H to keep n supply of grit,
oyster shell and charcoal before tho
fowls. Tho more you can coax your
laying hen to eat and assimilate, tho
more material she will have to turn
into eggs. Her body must bo nour
ished and material supplied for eggs.
To provide for both purposes during
cold weathor meanB grinding up a
great deal or food. Tho grit helps to
do this and tho oyster shell furnishes
material for tho egg shell. Charcoal
furnishes no nourishment, but pro
motes digestion, nnd is a bowel cor
rective. Brooding Hens.
With brooding hens we give exactly
the same diet, except for soft food.
That affects the fertility and is used
only occasionally for a change. Then
we usually give blood meal and bran
mixed In the hopper. In tho penB we
"keep grit and shell all the time, and
Ince grit Is scarce In this country, we
use gravel, coal cinders and broken
glass In order that the hens may have
something Bharp to cut and digest
their food, ,

HARD WORK MEANS SUCCESS
To Hatch and Brood Chickens Artifi
cially One Must 8tay With Work
Night and Day.
A great many people buy Incubators
nnd brooders and expect them to run
themselves. Thero would be jUBt ns
much senso In thf hen leaving her
eggs for tho wind and sun to hntch In
stead of setting on them and guarding
them, night nnd day, for 21 days.
Inanlmnte things won't run them
selves; thoy must bo run. Machines
are nil right, but they haven't brains;
men must supply tho Intelligence.
Now, It hns been proved by thou
sands or people In dirforent pnrts ol
tho world that artificial incubation
nnd brooding of poultry Is an assured
success. But to mnko this success re
quires close personal attention from
stnrt to finish. Tho work cannot be
Intrusted to any Tom or Dick or Har
ry. Tom nnd Dick and Harry hired to
do the work may set the machine
going, but thoy won't keep them
going. They lack tho personal equa
tion. They would Just as soon see you
make n failure as they would sec you
mako a success of the chicken busi
ness. To hatch and brood chickens artifi
cially oue must stay right with the
work, day and night. This docs not
mean that you have to alt up with and
nurse the machines and baby birds,
but that you just about know exactly
what they are doing every hour of the
twenty-four.
Many people fall to keep tho Infant
chicks dry, warm and well supplied
with fresh air In tho brooder. This
is a simple matter, but an essential. A
herd or goats will get along In a re
moto brushy pasture for weeks at s
tlmo with nothing but bushes and
fence rails to feed upon. Not so with
baby chicks; they must be fed at
least five times each day.
The neglect of slmplo sanitation In
the brooder Is responsible for heavy
mortality among young feathered
stock. Fifty or a hundred or more
young birds In one close room will
soon mnke foul conditions, which in
turn will soon lead to disease and
death if the foulness Is not removed.
Thoso who aro very careful to keep
the brooder scrupulously clean usually
have good success with broader
chicks, and those who allow them to
become filthy meet with inevitable
loss. ,
Failures, then, In hatching and
brooding poultry by artificial means
are due to the use of infertile eggs, al
lowing temperatures In the machine
to run too high and too low, lack of
good ventilation, failure to keep tho
brooder clean and tho young blrdB
supplied with direct sunlight, and Ir
regular feeding. These may all be
summed up In one phrase lack of
close attention to details.
lESf
Feeding tho turkeys too often Is an
Injurious practice.
Every farmer should go Into tho
puro bred poultry class.
Don't expect to get winter eggs
from late hatched chicks.
Get rid of soma of tho roosters that
aro now worrying the hens to no good
purpose
Tho Indian Runner duck Is not In
clined to fatten bo readily as other
varieties.
Hunt up private customers and
agree to sell them strictly fresh eggs
then do It.
Tho quickest way to "break up" a
setting hen Is to shut her up a day
with a rooster.
The comb Is as sure an Indicator of
the health of the bird as the tongue
Is of the person.
Teach the turkeys to have a regu
lar feeding ground apart from tho
other fowls of tho farm.
Lato batched chicks mako good
broilers or soft roasters In the fall
when the prices aro high.
Tho very best kind of a pen for
ducklings Is one that can be easily
moved from one part of tho yard to
another.
