CANADA'S PLACE
AS A PRODUCER
Canada Is Getting a Great Many
Americans.
"Three young provinces, Manitoba,
Saskatchewan, and Alberta," Bays a
New York financial Journal, "have al-
teady made Winnipeg one of the great-
est primary wheat markets f the
world. In 1904 they raised <00,000
bunhels of wheat. Five yearn later
they produced 160,000,000 bushels. In
1813 the crop approximated 200,000,-
000 bushels. At the present rate of
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third In
the line of wheat producers. Ulti-
mately it will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has been the pioneer of our
development Undoubtedly tt will
prove the same with Canada. In the
last calendar year our trade with Can-
ada amounted to 497 million dollars.
Only with two countries—the United
Kingdom and Germany—is our trade
greater. No vivid imagination is
needed to see what the future devel-
opment of Canada meanB to the
people of the United States.
The Influx of American settlers to
tho Canadian prairies is now In full
swing. Within the past few duys
over 80 of those arrived at Bassano
carrying with them effects and capital
to the value of $100,000. Fifty settlers
from Oregon arrived in Alberta a few
days ago; while 15 families of settlors
from the stale of Colorado arrived at
Calgary on their Journey northwards.
The goods and personal effects of this
party filled 20 box cars. Of live stock
alone they had 175 horses, 15 cows
and 2,000 head of poultry. Another
class of settlor has arrived at Peers,
110 miles west, of Edmonton, where no
fewer than 200 German farmers have
taken up land. These are from good
farming families and brought with
them a large amount of capital.
Then In South Western Saskatche-
wan, there are large numbers settling,
these from the United States predoml
nating, while in tho northern and cen-
tral portions of all these provinces,
the settlement of now people i« going
on steadily. IGarly In April, Peter
floerts arrived In Cardiff after a six
day Journey from McPherson, Kansas.
Mr. QoerU who had purchased land
here was In charge of a party of 38
people from the Bame part of Kansas
and they came through with a special
train which included all their stock
and implements. The equipment whs
all Rock Island carB, and was the first
full Immigrant train ever sent out by
that railroad. The farina purchased
by the members of the party are
amongst the best In the district.

ESSENTIALS NEEDED TO PRODUCE MILKERS

Fine Herd of Young Cattle at Pasture.

To Insure strong, vigorous calves be- a month old and being fed entirely on
gin caring for them before birth by j skimmllk, hay and grain, the amount
giving the mother palatable and nu-
tritious food, rich in protein and ash.
Clover hay, corn silage and from two
to four pounds of grain mixture made
of two parts (by weight) of oats, two
parts wheat bran and one part linseed
Dil meal form an excellent ration for
this purpose. Give grain sparingly for
few days before and after calving.
It is important a calf receive the
first, or colostrum, milk of the dam,
being rich in mineral matter, with lax-
ative properties necessary to prevent
digestive disorders. Remove the calf
from Its dam within three days from
birth, as the sooner It Is removed the
more easily It is taught to drink from
the patl.
The first two weeks feed the calf
three Ames daily, giving eight to ten
pounds of milk per day the first week
and ten to twelve pounds per day the
second week. The third week whole
milk may bo substituted by skimmllk
and a grain supplement, so by the end
of the fourth week it has been entirely
eliminated. The amount of Bklmmilk
may gradually be Increased to sixteen
or eighteen pounds daily. Grain is
best fed dry, beginning with a handful
of grain may be one-half pound dally,
at the end of two months one pound
daily and at the end of three months
two pounds dally, and no further In-
crease Is necessary for six months. A
good mixture Is three parts (by
weight) of cornmeal, three parts
ground oats, three parts wheat bran
and one p&rt linseed oil meal.
If the skimmllk Is limited various
substitutes inay be used after the calf
is thirty days old. The Cornell station
found dried skimmllk powder gave the
best results, and calf meals gave good
results, strong calves having been
raised by their use without milk.
In raising calves Indigestion or
scours are often troublesome and are
traced to one or more of the following
causes: Too much milk, cold milk,
sour milk, unclean palls or unclean
surroundings. The best remedy is to
remove the cause. When a severe
case appears reduce the feed at once
and give three ounces of castor oil In
a pint of milk, to be followed In four
to six hours by a teaspoonful of a mix-
ture of one part e ilol and two parts
subnitrate of bismuth three times dally
until the calf lmpro%veB.

ment Station. Copyright. 1814)
Ab an all-around means of boh im-
provement, no other material equals
manure. Frequently, however, people
want to know what to use to supple
ment Insufficient supply of manure. If
nothing be known about the special
needs of the soil use a high grade com-
plete fertilizer, such as truck growers
make. One thousand or 1,500 pounds
per acre is not too much, and this
amount may be applied broadcast and
mixed throughout the soil. However,
a part may bo saved for the row or In
the hill for cropa like potatoes, toma-
toes, etc.
But will even 1,500 pounds per acre
of high grade complete fertilizer build
up the fertility or soil? The answer Is
quite simple. Fifteen hundred pounds
of fertilizer contain several times the
phosphoric acid removed by a heavy
crop of vegetables, and the unused
portion will remain In soil for the ben-
efit of succeeding crops. The supply
of potash need not give concern, but
the weakness of the fertilizer Is the
low content of the high priced- ele-
mapt, nitrogen.
A comparison of the proportions of
plant food elements present In fer-
tilizers with those found In crops will
make thla point clear. Take corn,
for example. In mature plants for
every ten pounds of phosphoric acid
are found 23 pounds of potash and 32
pounds of nitrogen, but In a common
brand of trucker's fertilizer for every
ten pounds of phosphoric acid are
four pounds of potash and only three
and one-third pounds of nitrogen. Thus
1,500 pounds of Buch fertilizer does
not contain as much nitrogen as Is
required In the production of a 40-
bushel corn crop and less than one-
third the amount removed by a heavy
crop of cabbage. In fact, all of the
nitrogen demanded by common farm
and garden crops cannot be profit-
ably supplied by commerical fertiliz-
ers. To build up soli in nitrogen, re-
course must be had to the growing
for manurial purposes of leguminous
plants, such as peas, beans, vetches.

8IX KINDS OF POTATOES.
As there are over two hundred ways
>f preparing potatoes, it la well to have
a fow of the many
ways served occar
sionally, for we
tire of the mashed,
baked, boiled,
escalloped and
fried methods.
Imitation New
Potatoes.— Select
•mall, round, even-sized potatoes; peel
ind tie them up In a muslin cloth to
look. Have in a, sauce pan equal
luantltiea of milk and water, Blightly
:alted, and boiling hot to cover the
potatoes. Cook, and when tender lift
>ut the cloth and drain on a colander;
Iry off In the oven and serve with a
hick white sauce poured over them.
Browned Potatoes.—Put peeled me-
lium-sized potatoes into a baking pan
with butter and meat drippings and
lalt. Rake In a moderate oven, shaking
.lie pan occasionally to Insure even
Drowning.
Stewed Potatoes.—Cut potatoes In
:ubes, after peeling, and put Into a
:asserole; add soup stock enough to
:over and cook tender, then add a lit-
le fresh cream, a grating of nutmeg
ind a few dashes of pepper. Serve in
he dish In which they were cooked.
Potato 8hells.—Add to a pint of
nashed hot potatoes a half teaspoon-
'ul of celery salt, a fourth of a tea-
ipoonful of paprika, a tablespoonful
3ach of butter and cream and the well-
beaten whites of two eggs; press flrm-
y into buttered shells, unmold, care-
fully brush the corrugated Bide with
a eaten egg yolk, lay on a buttered pan
ind bake brawn In a hot even. Gar-
nish with parsley.
Potato Griddle Cakes.—Mix mashed
jr riced potato with two beaten yolks,
for a pint of potato, a little milk and
Sour, enough to make a batter firm
moUfth; add a teaspoonful of sugar to
Insure browning. Serve with maple
sirup, If liked.
Potato Omelet.—Cut cold boiled po-
tatoes Into cubes. Mix them with
enough white sauce to moisten. Put
;wo tablespoonfuls of butter In an ome-
let pan. and when hot add the pota-
toes. Flatten them so that they will
have a smooth crust, well browned.
Fold like an omelet when serving.

Suited to Poultry.
Many retired farmers In small
towns keep poultry (also many boys
and girls who are yet In school).
They are Just the ones to take up
poultry in any of Its varied forms. It
is akin to the work the farmer used
to do. It keeps him out of doors and
he can make It as heavy or as light
as his strength permits. There is
fully as much poultry raUed in small
towna as on the farms, for there are
so many flocks to a given area. How-
ever. not all of them are bringing Id
net profits.

er nitrogen from air. A complete fer-
tilizer for the legumes need contain
only phosphoric acid and potash, but
the sweetening of soil by an occasion-
al liming will be of benefit to them
and to the garden crops. Clover should
be sown freely in mWsummer wher-
ever possible. Finally, as a result
of the application of manure, fertil-
izers. lime and the growing of le-
gumes, fertility of soil la built up.
Kind Treatment Pays.
Good cows are not developed by
harsh treatment If she expects a
whack by a milk stool or a fork han-
dle when Rhe Is approached. Is It any
wonder she is nervoue and kicks? If,
on the contrary, she never knows fear
and as you sit down to milk her, she
tries to lick your shoulder and thinks
you are the best calf she ever had, you
can figure that kind treatment pays In
dollars and cents, or from any point
of view.

The fowl on exhibition Is very

Can you talk English?" asked the
official. The applicant for naturaliza-

The question having been put, the
foreigner smiled and nodded confldent-
ly.
"Oh you can talk English, can you?"
Again the applicant looked bewild-

"Tell him," the Interpreter was di-
rected, "to talk English."
Having received the order, the for-
eigner triumphantly shouted;

8ANDWICHES OF TOAST.
That Was Different.
"I never believe anythtng one wom-
an tells me about another," he said.
"I was Just going to tell you," she
replied, "that your wife had given me
to understand that she considered you
the handsomest, bravest, best and wis-
est man in the world, but I suppose it
Is useless, for you will not believe she
ever Bald It."
"Oh, well, of course, there alwajr^
are exceptions."

fine, mixed with season-
ings and cream, spread on
bread and toasted after
he sandwich Is put to-
gether, turning so that
both sides are browned.

a most tasty Bandwich.
Egg Sandwich.—Chop a hard cooked
egg, add a tablesponful of soft butter,
a quarter of a teaspoonful of Worces-
tershire sauce, salt and paprika to
taste. Spread on freshly made and
buttered toast. One egg will make
filling for two sandwiches.
Sardine Sandwiches.—Scrape the
skin from a box of sardines, split, re-
move the bones and tall and put into
s bowl with lemon Julse, let stand aa
hour, drain and mash, spread on but-
tared toast with lettuce leaves.
Baked Bean Sandwich.—Mash two
tablespoonfuls of baked beans, mix
with chopped sour pickle, season with
salt, pepper and spread on buttered
toast.
Sausage Sandwich.—Fry a small
sausage, break into small bits and
spread with chopped celery with a
dash of paprika on toast with fresh
lettuce between the sandwich.
Bacon and Egg Sandwich.—Fry a
piece of bacon and an egg. Break the
bacon Into bits and spread with the
egg whole on toast between lettuce
leaves, with crisp celery.
Hot Fried Sandwich^-This is a sand
wlch well liked but must be eaten by
one with a good digestion. Prepare
a seasoned cheese filling for the sand
wlches, cut bread In rounds, spread
with butter then with the cheese mix-
ture and put the sandwich Into a hot
frying pan with a little butter. Brown
on both sides and serve with lettuce
