FARMER'S GREAT
OPPfflM
Demand for Canadian
Alter the War.
Cattlo
Tho opportunities that Western Can
ada offers to thu fanner have time and
again lieen placed before the public
through tbeBo column. Tho cheap
price nt which tho very best lnnds can
be purchased, and the advantage that
Is to be had In securing one of the free
homesteads of 1G0 acres has appealed
to n great many, and they huvo cm
braced them. Many, In fact most of
those who have done so are today giv
ing testimony to the good fortune and
tho timely forethought that led them
to go to Western Canada, and embark
In an era of farming that has placed
them away boyond the pinch of want
and given them reason to look Into tho
futuro with n hopefulness that they
had not had tho courage lu tho past to
forecast.
Not only have they been able to So
nne good lands at low prices and on
easy terms but If they desire they
have been able to add to tills K'O acres
of land free, on conditions that are
r-asy. A resident In the Lloydmlnstcr
district In Saskatchewan who had
been farming in tho States for soino
time, took up a homestead In 1010, und
commenced breaking with A oxen.
Two years ago ho bought an adjoin
ing quarter section and now has over
100 acres under cultivation. He says,
"As my circumstances Improved, I sold
tho oxen and now have six head of
horses, twelve head of cattle, and liavo
always a bunch of hogs on hand.
"On an average 1 havo had yields of
25 bushels of wheat. C. bushels of oats,
nnd 40 bushels of barley to tho acre,
and last season from a field of 2SMj
acres, I threshed 1,010 bushels of
wheat. 1 havo made a success of
mixed farming and would havono hesi
tation in advising all who contcmplato
making a new home to conic to this
district. I sell cream to the Govern
ment Creamery here, nnd find nt all
times a good market for live stock and
other produce."
This is but a modest btatcment of
what a modest man can do In Western
Canada, and could be repeated of hun
dreds of others.
Scores of cases could be recited
where much more has been accom
plished, nnd It la believed that with
moderate Investment nt tho present
time, the cattlo Industry of Western
Canada will pay lnrge Interest.
The .Minister of Agriculture of Sas
katchewan, In a recent address, ven
turer, tho prediction that tho Sas
katchewan farmer who doveloped his
land along the lines of general stock
breeding would make much more mon
ey and find a far bigger return for his
efforts In ten years' tlmo than the
man who devoted his energies purely
and primarily to grain raising. This
was the coming golden ago of oppor
tunity for the stockman nnd It was up
to tho Saskatchewan man to get in
on the ground floor nnd prepare him
self for the coming demand.
Tho close of tho war would undoubt
edly seo a great demand for llvo stock
in Europe and It was only reasonable
to suppose that this demand would
havo to bo filled almost wholly by
American stockmen, both In Cnnada
and tho United States. Kuropo was
slowly draining Its rural districts not
only of Its beef nnd dairy animals but
wns also using tho finer breeding ani
mals and tho, end of the war would
sec a condition of nffnlrs which would
render necessary almost tho ropopula
tlon of tho domestic animal kingdom
In that continent.
Tho opportunity of Western Cana
dian stockmen, therefore, lay In being
prepared for this demand when it
arose. In view of these facts which
must ho patent to every student of
economic conditions as related to tho
stock industry, ho hoped to see within
tho next three years tho stock raising
Industry in Suskntchownn given nn Im

SOWING AND REAPING (TEMPER
ANCE LESSON.)
LKSSON THXT-Onlntltin 6.
ClOl.DKX TKXT- Oo.l Is not mucked;
for whatsoever n innti sowcth, that slinll
he iilo reap.-Gnl. 6:7.
We turn aside today to consider tho
second temperance lesson for tho
yenr. Paul's letter to the churches
of Oalatla strongly contrasts law and
grace It's key verso is ch. 12:10, and
Its most prominent word Ib "law."
many claim verso one of Chapter G
ns Its golden verse. This llnal chap
ter Is it most practical ono nnd rich In
suggestion regarding our social rela
tions. Let each member come pre
pared to give a temperance applica
tion or to ask a temperance question.
I. "Bear Ye One Another's Burdens"
(vv. 1-5). If a man trespass, bo sur
prised In n sin, be caught lu the very
act, or surprised Into committing u
sin, "ye which are spiritual" (literal
ly, guided and governed by tho spirit;
ch. 0111-25) arc to restore such a
one. This Is to bo done, not by cut
ting off or cnstlng asldo tho erring
one, but ns a dislocated limb Is re
stored to Its place so wo aro to "re
st ot e" that one to his plnco as a be
liever; each believer being a member
of tho body of Cnrlst (1 Cor. 12:12,
I I, 27) ; ono who falls Into sin Is n dis
located limb or member, and tho
stronger ones are to restoro him to
his proper plnco. This must be dono,
however, not with nny sense of our
own Infallibility, but In meekness,
gentleness nnd with great tenderness.
(See II Tim. 2:21-2(5). Paul's reason
for this, "lest thou also ho tempted"
should Iny low tho pride any of ua
who havo not fallen might fool (v. l;
Math. 7:2-r; .las. 2:13). Instead of
exclaiming, "1 could never havo dono
nny such net." wo ought rather to
say, "Hut for the graco of Rod I might
havo dono oven worso thnn that." (I
Cor. 10: 1H). Tho bunions (v. 2) or
welghtu which we are to bear arc not
tho unnecessary details of the Mnbnlc
law (Math. 23:4; Acts 15:10) but rath
er they aro tho temptations, weak
nesses nnd failures of others. Tho
master "came not to bo ministered
unto but to minister" and was "tempt
ed In all points," "touched with a feel
ing of our Infirmities" nnd In our thus
sharing with ench other wo but follow
In hlB steps (Ch. 5:4; John 13:34,
15:12; Romans 15:3) This is tho "law
of Christ," not onerous, not a rlovoua
burden, not necessarily an obligation,
I but a "law" because ho, our "fllo lead-
;er," fully nnd perfectly exemplifies It
(Phil. 2:5-8). It is chiefly self-conceit
and spiritual prldo (v. 3) which standa
In tho way of gcntlo forbearance In
dealing with our erring brothers. Such
prldo does not usually decolvo others
(Jas. 1:22-24) nnd ho who is so con
trolled, "decelvcth himself."
II. "Whatsoever a Man Soweth"
vv. G-8. Whllo ench must so bear his
burden, yet thoso who aro taught aro
to help those who tench to hear their
burdens by contributing "In nil good
things" (Itom. 15:27: I Cor. 9:11-11).
Paul sounds a solemn warning to
thoso who rofuso thus to help forwnrd
tho work of righteousness, those who
fall to support others and think that
their selfishness will accrue to their
advantage (v. 7). Tho natural world
has many Illustrations of this Immut
able law. Men may mock (sneer at)
this inw, but find eventually that thero
is no escupe from Its operation. This
law has many applications. Tho ono
In tho context Is, first, a physical ono
(v. 8), n most familiar ono to ub all.
The samo Ib true spiritually, and has
been repeatedly Illustrated throughout
tho history ot tho Christian church.
(IF Cor. 9:56; Prov. 11:24). In all
of our actions, physical, mental, moral,
social and spiritual, wo reap what wo
bow; Jlko In kind, sown sparingly wo
reap sparingly; abundantly, and wo
reap In abundnnco.
III. "We Shall Reap, If Wo Faint
Not" vv. 9-18. Paul now proceeds to
make tho practical application. If wo
act under tho leadership of tho Spirit
(Seo ch. 6:16-25) wo avoid carnal
mlndedness, and wo aro sowing to tho
Spirit and of the Spirit (who la Hfo
John 6:63; II Cor. 3:0), wo shall reap
"llfo etornal," I. e., Hfo which Ib end
less In duration and dlvino in Its es
sence Thero must bo, howovor, per
sistence. Wo must not withhold tho
good seed nor refrnln from sowing
It If wo nro to rerp tho reward sug
gested In verses nlno nnd ton. If wo
do so withhold, or uhould wo bow
ought but tho "Good need," wo will
Buroly reap tho awful harvcBt sug
gested In verses 7 and 8. Tem
poral weariness or discouragement
will not excuso ub for nny negligence.
Nor aro wo to bo Impatient, for "In
duo season," In God'a tlmo (I Tim.
6:14, 15) we shall reap; not perhaps
immediately but tho lsnuo Ib certain.
Sorao fall to roup becauso ot Inxlty;
others contlnuo cultivation too long;
still others, by overlooking their "op
portunity" to do good (v. 10) and
henco having not sown, they cannot
renp.
Paul suggests (. 12) that tho sow
ing of which he speaks Ib not for
nny outward show, nor for conformity
to tho edicts and regulations of men
in order to avoid persecution, (v. 1?
It. V.).
NEWSBOY STUDENT
STARTLES EXPERTS
Evolves, at Pennsylvania Univer
sity, a Simple Extraction of
Square and Cube Roots.
Philadelphia, Wendell Sooy, once n
newsboy, who Is now going through
Pennsylvania university by his own of
forts, lived up to the tradition ol
gonitis by startling a class of teachers
nt the university with a demonstration
of a brand new method which he has
evolved for tho extraction of square
and cube roots, and the simplification
of the task that was the bugbear nf al- I
most everyone during schooldays.
Sooy. by tho method he has hivcnted,
can do it problem In llvo seconds that
Can Do a Problem in Five Seconds.
ordlnnrily requires about twenty mln
utes of hard work by a practical mathe
matician. Various teachers in his nudlenci
flashed long numbers running Into mil
lions nt Sooy, and ho was never longet
than four seconds In tliidlug tho cube
root and chalking it on tho blnckhoaid.
Tho key to Sooy's method Is a table
which includes the cubes of all mini
hers up to nine. This, under his sys
tern, tho demonstrator must memorize
Ho has found an interior system ol
numbers by which when tho sum total
Is cut into sections of three numbeis
from right to left the problem or di
vision solves itself almost automatic
ally by the application of the llnal
numbers In the key.
Sooy has a dellnltc bent for mathe
matics. Prof. Yocum nnd others at
tho university characterized his syB
tcm as extremely interesting from a
technical viewpoint.

horn beside a new-niado grave, was
burled by her mother under six Inches
of soft earth for 11 hours, and then
was rescued by young men who heard
Its faint cries coming from tho ceme

According to tho Rtory related by
Rev. Mr. Nolnnd, tho baby was born in
a cemotery In tho night, nnd tho moth

laid tho child in tho hole. Then she
covered it with earth and cropt nway.
When tho young men heard tho In

Hut thero wns no child in Bight.
Finally tho rescuers began feeling in
