A 480-ACRE FARM YIELDS 2
CENT PROFIT IN A YEAH.
What a fiercer County ( Ohio ) Farmer
Received from One Year's Crop.
Extracts from an interesting letter
from P. II. liynhard , of Starbuck.
Manitoba. Canada , gives an excellent
idea of the prosperity of those who
have gone from the Ur.ited States to
Canada. lie says :
"I bought , August , 1003 , 4SO ncres
of land , paying $12,000 for it. We
threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and
between 1,200 and l.oOO bushels of oats
and barley from 200 acres. But part
of the wheat went down before filling
and was not harvested except for bay.
The crop was worth at threshing time
? ; ! ,000. Besides 120 acres laying idle
except a timothy meadow which is not
included in this estimate. Counting
the value of the product and the in
crease of value of land will pay me
more than 23 per cent on the invest
ment. Two brothers in the same neigh
borhood bought 100 acres each six
years ago. They have not done a sin
gle thing to this land except to fence
it and break and cultivate about one-
balf of it. Harvested last year 28
bushels wheat per acre. This year 27
bushels per acre. They can get any
day $25 per acre. These are only a
few of many hundreds of such chances.
It looks like boasting , but trutb is
justifiable and the world ought to
know it , especially tbe home-seeker.
I know of quite a few farmers that
Lave made fortunes in from 10 to 20
years , retired with from $20,000 to
$100,000.
Writing concerning another district
in the Canadian West , S. L. Short says :
"Dear Sir I have to inform you
that I have just returned from the
Carrot river country in Saskatchewan ,
where I located land of the very finest
black vegetable loam , wbicb I am
proud of , and will move in tbe spring.
Farmers are still plowing there. A
mild climate and beautiful country to
behold. Cattle are fat and running
outside. Wood and water good. Saw
oats weighing 42 pounds to bushel.
Potatoes large and well ripened ; also
wheat that brought there 82 cents. Tlis
country exceeded my expectations.
Saw oats in stook , thicker on the
ground than appears in many of the
illustrations sent out in descriptive
pamphlets. I have been in many West
ern States , but tbe soil excels any J
ever saw. "
Tbe Canadian Government Agent !
at different points report that tbe in
quiries for literature and railroad
rates , etc. , to Western Canada are th
greatest in tbe history of their work.
The Trouble with Him.
"I refuse to talk to you , sir ! " roared
the indignant old father. "If you will
come around when you are sober to ask
me for my daughter 1 may consider the
matter. "
"When I'm shober ? Thash all right ,
old man thash all right. Glad to do it.
Only I never seem to want her when
I'm sober. " Chicago Record-Herald.

Finding it impossible to secure th
early ratification of the Santo Domin
go treaty , President Roosevelt consent
ed to let the matter drop for tbe tirm
being. Tbe treaty will be up for con
sideratiou at the special session ol
Congress next fall , when another ef
fort will be made to secure its ratifi
cation. Meantime , as a result of the
Inability or unwillingness of the Sena
tors to adopt any rational and intelli
gent policy , the whole case of the na
tion's relations w th Santo Domingc
remains in a hopeless tangle. In ac
cordance witb tbe award made by a
court of arbitration last year the Uni
ted States will continue to collect the
revenues of the Dominical government
in liquidation of the claims of an
American company , but its status
there will be vague and uncertain and
It will be powerless to do anything to
ward satisfying the claims of Santo
Domingo's European creditors. In de
clining to permit the President to form
treaty relations with .the Dominican
government and take full charge of its
custom houses without first securing
the assent of the Senate , the opinion
seems to prevail that the members of
that body acted well within their pre
rogatives. However , they have failed
to substitute any rational plans or out
line any Intelligent course of action in
the premises. The Senators simply
have tied the President's hands and
left him to muddle through tbe situa
tion as best he can.
Tbe Census Bureau has issued a re
port on the condition of irrigation in
the United States , showing 33,415 sys
tems , with 59,311 miles of main canals
and ditches , were irrigating 9,487,077
acres on 134,030 farms. Tbe amount
expended in constructing all tbese sys-
: ems was $93,320,452. The average
construction cost per acre in the arid
region was $9.14 and average per irri
gation system $2,710. Tbe great ob-
table of development of irrigation in
Texas and New Mexico is tbe present
rcaty between Mexico and this coun
ty , which prohibits impounding ol
waters of tbe Kio Grande.
The use of the telephone In this
louutry is increasing at a marvelous-
ly rapid rate. In 1900 there were less
ban 1,000,000 telephone subscribers in
: he United States ; now there are
,000,000 or more. To provide for this
jrowth requires the expenditure ol
many millions of dollars each year. In
he past twelve months the big com
panies have spent over $35,000,000 in
extending their service , a large share
if this enormous total going to carry
the telephone lines to small towns and
.hrough rural districts.

One Sunday recently President
Roosevelt stood in the pulpit of a
Washington church and made an in-
spiring address. On the following Sun
day ex-President Cleveland was the
chief speaker at a great meeting of
the Young Men's Christian Association
in Philadelphia. "Good preachers ,
good preaching , " is the comment of a
religious paper , and it is gratifying to
reflect that these , our most honored
citizens , can with propriety , because
wilh sincerity , direct our thoughts to
the higher life.
The final steps in the recession to the
federal government of the Yosernite
valley and the Mariposa big trees , so
far as California is concerned , were
taken the other day by Governor Par-
dee when he signed the bill providing
for the regrant. Specially prepared
pens were made from quills taken from
the eagle mounted in the Assembly
chamber. At tbe conclusion of the cer
emony only one of the pens was re
tained by the Governor , and the other
was presented to Senator Belshaw , au
thor of the recession bill.

Secretary Wilson sets forth in his
annual report that tbe total value of
American farm products for 1904 ex
ceeds $4,900,000,000 , and calls attention
to tbe fact that the value of our farm
produce during the past two years ex
ceeded in value the output of all the
gold mines of the entire world , since
the discovery of America. The farmer
is unquestionably the lord of creation.
He is the man to whom Wall street
and La Salle street have to doff their
hats.

There was a sharp contest in the
House over the item of the naval ap
propriation bill which authorizes the
building of two battleships. An amend
ment to authorize only one failed by a
vote of 121 to 144. The Senate passed
the bill In the form in which it came
from the House.

In reviewing the measures , seem
ingly desirable , which Congress failed
to pass , it is always a comfort to re
member that the enactment of an un
wise law is a mistake that it takes a
long while to correct ; from the nature
of our government machinery , some
measures practically speaking can
not be repealed. It Is hard , for ex
ample , to take away a privilege once
granted , to abolish a position once cre
ated , and to close a public institution
once started.

Even the best housekeepers cannot make a good cup of
coffee without good material. Dirty , adulterated and queerly
blended coffee such as unscrupulous dealers shovel over their
counters won't do. But take the pure , clean , natural flavored
LION COFFEEf the leader of all package coffees
the coffee that for over a quarter of a century has been daily
welcomed in millions of homes and you will make a drink fit
for a Mng in this way :
MOW TO MAKE GOOD COFFEE.

oitra for the pot. " First mix It with a little cold water , enouch to make a thick Mite , and
add white of an egg ( if egg is to be used as a settler ) , then follow one of the following roles :
1st. WITH BOILING WATER. Add boiling water , and let it boll
THREE MINUTES ONLY. Add a little cold water and set aside live
minutes to settle. Serve promptly.
2d. WITH COLD WATER. Add your cold wafer to the paste and
bring It to s. boll. Then set aside , add a little cold water , and in live
minutes It's ready to serve. '
O ( Don't boil it too long.
" * { Don't let it stand more than ten minutes before serving.
DONTS ( .Don't use water that has been boiled before.
TWO WAYS TO SETTLE COFFEE.
1st. With Eggs. TJsc part of the white of an egg , mixing it with the ground LION
COFFEE before boiling.
Sd. With Cold Water instead of cgga. After boiling add a daah of cold water , and Bet
aside for eight or ten minntes , then serve through a strainer.
