Extraordinary Inducements Being
Offered.
Previous articles have dealt with
the necessity of producing extra quan-
tities of foods to feed the world dur-
ing Mils stress of high consumption
«nd paucity of production. Instead of
the condition Improving It is growing
worse, and unless drastic and Immedi-
ate action is taken, prices will con-
tinue to climb high. It Is hoped by the
Canadian government that by offering
extra inducements to secure a home-
stead of 100 acres of excellent land In
the homesteadlng areus of Western
Canada, with the combined effort of the
farmer in extraordinary preparation
of Ullage and bigger wages than ever,
that Western Canada, with the assist-
Unce of a Divine Providence, may pro-
duce a greater number of million acres
of wheat than ever in the past. The
farm laborer can now secure a home-
stead on easier conditions than ever
before. All the time that he works
for a Western Canadian farmer dur-
ing 1917, after he makes his entry or
lillng wUl count as residence on his
homestead for that year, leaving hlin
but two additional years' residence,
before getting title to a piece of land
that should then be easily worth
•$1,000. (The response to this offer has
t)een wonderful, and hundreds have al-
ready taken advantage of it.
The climate of Western Canada is
one that breeds energy, Instils life and
buoyancy, and with the soil that the
country possesses, no greater asset
could be desired. The country is past
the pioneering stage ; Its ability to grow
nil the smaller grains better than any
other portion of the continent has
been proven so often that It seems a
waste of time to speak of It. The high
name that has been given the country
In the splendid class of live stock that
It raises, has placed It In the high col-
umn with the best states of the Union.
And then social conditions, something
that every housewife asks about, are
as nearly perfect as could be wished
for. Thousands of miles of telephone
line connect the remotest hamlet with
the principal cities of the country and
continent, miles of excellent graded
roads, as well as the perfect natural
roads of the prairie, make driving and
hauling easy. Grldlroned as these
provinces are with railway lines
bring the farm near to Atlantic or Pa-
cific, or United States markets, rural
mail delivery brings the settler still
closer to the homes abroad. Rural
and consolidated Schools everywhere
are easy adjuncts to the colleges and
universities, which are said to be
among the best on the continent.
Taxation is light, and only applied
on the farm land, cattle, Implements,
etc., on the farm being exempt. Many
farmers, having realized sufficient
from one crop of wheat to pay for
their entire farm holdings, have In-
stalled their own electric light and
heating plants, have their automobiles
and many luxuries they would not
have possessed on their old home
abroad. Life Is comfortable and ex-
istence enjoyable In Western Canada.
In no country Is there a greater per-
centage of contented farmers, and In
no part of the continent Is farming
easier or more profitable.
Land there will produce 80 bushels
of wheat to the acre, while there are
many cases where the yield was
higher, as high as 70 bushels. What
this means to the farm laborer does
not fully appear on the surface. He
will get good wages, he can secure a
hometetead worth at the end of three
years about $1,600, while working for
wages he can put in residence duties,
and can also look around, and find a
good location.
Besides the homesteadlng attraction
of Western Canada, there remains the
other fact that other lands can be
purchased at from $15 to $30, while
improved farms may be had at rea-
sonable figures.
The desire to have a piece of land
of one's own Is a natural Instinct In
the heart of every properly developed
man and woman. In earlier years, on
account of the great areas of land
available in the United States, no
great difficulty was experienced
by any ambitious settler of that
country who wished to become his
own landholder, but the rapid In-
crease In population, combined with
the corresponding rise In the price of
land, has completely changed this con-
dition. Land, which a generation ago
might be had for the homesteadlng,
now commands prices ranging to $100
an acre and over. At such prices It Is
quite hopeless for the tenant farmer
or the farmer's son In moderate cir-
cumstances, or the city man with lim-
ited capital, to attempt to buy a farm
of his own. To pay for It becomes a
life-long task, and the probability is
that he will never do more than meet
the interest chnrges. If he is serious
In his desire to secure a farm home,
a country where he can buy land from
$10.00 to $:«).00 an acfe, which will
produce as big or bigger crops as those
he has been accustomed to from lands
at $100.00 an acre. He wants this
land Where social conditions will be
attractive to himself and his family,
and where he san look forward with
confidence to being In a few years In-
dependent, and well started on the
road to financial success.
All these conditions he will find In
Western Canada, and nowhere else.
The provinces of Alberta, Saskatche-
wan and Manitoba, commonly called
"Western Canada,"' provide the one
and only answer to the land-hungry.
The land Is here; It Is the kind of
land he wants; the conditions are as
nearly Ideal as Is possible, and the
prices and terms are such that the
man of moderate capital has an op-
portunity not available to him else-
where.—Advertisement.
A Predicament.
It was the night of nights. Isabella
had said "yes," Isabella's father had
said "yes," and Isabella's "young man"
was happj. So was Isabella.
Minutes ticked away as they sat
hand in hand, not caring for conversa-
tion, blissfully content to sit and sit
and sit in each other's proximity. But
suddenly Isabella's young man grew
restless. He began to twitch and pull
fearsome faces. His facial contortions
got worse and worse, till at last Isa-
bella got scared and cried:
"What Is it, beloved? Tell your Isa-
bella! Are you subject to fits?"
"No, no, of course not," said the
young man soothingly. "My eyeglasses
are falling off and I don't want to
let go of your lovely little hands."

Authorities Take Over Ships That
Have Long Been Held in
American Ports.
TOTAL VALUE IS ENORMOUS
Some of the Finest Ships Afloat Are
Among Those Taken—Ellis Island
Receives Officers and Crews of
Those in New York Waters.
. New York, April 6.—Germany's $51,■
300,000 mercantile fleet, which had
been Interned here since the outbreak
of the war, was seized by the United
States only a few hours after con-
gress passed the resolution declaring
a state of war. Thee were 27 passen-
ger liners, freighters and sailing shiirs
in the fleet, among them the Vater-
land, one of the largest and finest pas-
senger liners tn tlje world.
The German officers and crews,
numbering more than 3,000 men, were
taken to Ellis island for Internment.
It was learned that the machinery
on some of the ships wns smashed.
United States naval men will make
a thorough examination of the vessels
to deteriniue the exact extent of the
damage.
The ships seized In this port aggre-
gated 304,000 tons. Eleven of them
displaced more than 10,000 tons. The
mighty Vaterland is a leviathan of
51,284 tons nnd cost $7,500,000.
The German officers and sailors on
the ships made no resistance when the
United States officials went on hoard.
Nor did they murmur when told to
prepure to go to the Immigration sta-
tion at Ellis Island. A whole fleet
of customs boats swarmed in the Hud-
son collecting the Germans.
Here Is the ofliclnl list of the seized
ships In all ports as given out by the
customs officials:

Rata and Firea.
At a time when everyone is com-
plaining of the high cost of living it
might be well to see if we cannot elim-
inate two great sources of waste—tiree
and rats.
Most tires are needless. All rats
are so. Some years ago a study of the
rat problem in Philadelphia arrived at
the conclusion that the rodents of that
city ate moro than a million dollars'
worth of food each year. At that rate,
t^e disgusting creatures can hardly
^cost less than $100,000,000 per year
to the whole country. This Is a pret-
ty high price to pay for the compan-
ionship of impish pests which, besides
their other bad habits, undermine
floors and carry the most dreaded of
all diseases, bubonic plague.
Yet flres are more expensive than
rats. In 1916—the last year for which
figures are at hand—the American
people paid out In premiums for flre
Insurance $419,801,346. Of this vast
■um at least three-fourths could be
waved by reducing our flre record to
the rate prevailing in England, France
or Ofermany; and even In our time and
nation $300,000,000 per year Is a sav-
ing worth noting, and one which
would have a perceptible effect on the'
cost of living.

the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of Its luster, Its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverlsh-
ness and Itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, leosen and die—then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderlne
tonight—now—any time—will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderlne from any store, and after
the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which Is so beautiful. It will become
wavy and fluffy and have the appear-
ance of abundance; an Incomparable
gloss ^ and softness, but what . will
please you most will be after Just a
few weeks' use, when you will actual-
ly *ee a lot of fine, downy hair—new
hair—growing all over the scalp. Ad*.

"Oh, look 1" exclaimed the little
girl. "What a fright we have given
that funny animal! Its hair is stand-
ing on end!"
