we don't want them. It is to be a j

This was a settler. The "toneys

UNDERSTOOD WHAT WAS SAID, i
In no Other Way Can Actions of Cat
Be Explained.
As striking a cat story as I have
heard in a long time comes from Al-
ton, N\ M., and is vouched for abso-
lutely, says a writer in the Hoston
, Record. The cat was accustomed to
( visit the next <!• >«>r neighbor after each
i meal to be fed and petted, bringing
' also two kittens.
One of the women at the house thus
j visited, who had entertained a dislike
j for cats, finally, on observing the ani-
' mal, expressed aloud a liking for the
gray kitten and said she intended to
ask to be allowed to keep it.
The next day when Mother Cat
j came for her bits only one kitten ac-
companied her, but she took away
some choice morsels for the one left
at home. This continued several days,
when the woman who had flrst ex-
pressed intention to get the kitten
which the cat was feeding, remarked
that she had given up wholly the idea
of securing the gray kitten. All three
felines appeared at the next meal and
have done so since

pride. Put what appears to make our
neighbors happiest is the statement
that of these 4,174 homesteaders,
t,212 were from this side of the line.
Kittle Is said about tho 97 Canadians
who rccrossed tho border to take up
homes In Canada West, or of tho 808
from Great Britain, or of tho 1,236
| from non-British countries. It ap-
pears that tho Item In this July report
that makes Canada rejoice most is
thU >f the 1,212 American farmers
who decided to try their fortunes in
Canada West.
"The compliment Is deserved. Tho
1,212 were mostly from Dakota and
other farming states, and go into
Canada fitted better than nny other
class of immigrants for developing tho
new country. They tako capital with
them, too, say Canadian papers proud-
ly. In every way, they are welcome
over there."
As tho Express well says, the
American is welcomed to Canada, and
the reasons given aro sufilcient to in-
vite tho welcome. The Amerlacn
farmer knows thoroughly the farming
conditions that prevail In tho Cana-
dian prairie provinces, and is aware
of every phase cf agricultural devel-
opment In recent years.
In practical knowledge of what is
wanted to get tho largest return for
labor and Investment he is by long
odds superior to any European set-
tler. He knews what Is required to
bring success, anil he II able and will-
ing to do it, and his future causes no
apprehension to tho successful Cana-
dian farmer. The agent of the Cana-
dian Government, whose address ap-
pears elsewhere, says that the differ-
ence between tho manners and cus-
toms of the farmer from Dakota, Ore-
gon or Minnesota and the farmer from
Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta
i3 not nearly so marked as that be-
tween tho farmer of tho Maritime
provinces and the Ontario tiller of tho
soil. Hence tho welcome to the free
homesteads of the Canadian West,
and there are hundreds of thousands
-f them left, that Is extended to the
ettler from the Western States.
