— a ‘THE UNITED STATES WILL SOON KNOCK AT THE DOORS OF CANABA FOR WHEAT. A Crop of 60,000,000 Bushels of Wheat Will Be the Record of 1904. The results of the threshing in. Western Canada are not yet complet- ed, but froth information at hand, it is safe to say that the average per acre will be reasonably high, and a fair estimate will place the total yield of wheat at 60,000,000 bushels. At pres- ent prices this will add to the wealth of the farmers nearly $60,000,000. Then think of the immense yield of oats and barley, and the large herds of cattle, for all of which good prices will be paid. The following official telegram was sent by Honorable Clifford Sifton, Min- ister of the Interior, to Lord Strath- cona, High Commissioner for Can- ada: “Aim now able to state definitely that under conditions of unusual diffi- culty in Northwest a fair average crop of wheat of good quality has been reaped and is now secure from sub- stantial damage. The reports of in- jury by frost and rust were grossly exaggerated. The wheat of Manitoba and Northwest Territories will aggre- gate from fifty-five to sixty million bushels. The quality is good and the price is ranging around one dollar per bushel.” Frank H. Spearman, in the Satur- day Evening Post, says: “When our first transcontinental railroad was built, learned men at- tempted by isotherman demonstration to prove that wheat could not profit- ably be grown north of where the line projected; but the real granary e world lies up to 300 miles north ne Canadian, Pacific railroad, and is not definitely distant when ted States will knock at the of Canada for-its bread. Rail- road men see such a day; it may be hoped that statesmen also will see it, and arrarce their reciprocities while they may do so gracefully. Americans ady have swarmed into that far country and to a degree have taken the American wheat field with them. Despite the fact that for years a little Dekota station on the St. Paul road— Eureka—held the distinetion of being the st primary grain market in the world, the Dakotas and Minnesota will one day yield their palm to Sas- katchewan.” doo nm a man isn’t square the fact soon -get ‘round.

The average consumer of baking pow- der does not know that a reaction occurs in the a of baking. Whenever @ chemical reaction takes place, the nature of the original materials is entirely changed, so that the substances which remain in the food to be eaten are very different from those which composed the baking powder before baking. r this reason, the statement that baking powder contains alum or cream of tartar is worthless so far as informing the consumer as to what he eats. What the consumer wants to know is what goes into his stomach, not wha in the can. Food prepared with a cream of tartar baking powder does not contain. any cream of tartar, just as food prepared with alum baking powder is free from alum. In tne case of the high-priced baking powders this bread res of Roche the ent of Seidli rs. That food prepared these tru baking powders is eaten, the consumer is taking a dose of Seidlitz Powders.

Recommends Them for Sweden. Gustaf Edvard Fahlerantz, an emi- nent Swedish jurist, who represented his country at the international con- gress of law men in St. Louis, finds much to recommend in American law. and promises to use his influnece to have Sweden adopt some of the fea- tures that attracted his attention. Her Fahlcrantz, who holds a judicial posi- tion at Stockholm, was invited to the congress to read a paper on Swedish jurisprudence. Being a very busy man he could not give the time to a tour of the country, but stole away long enough to make a fiying trip to Min- neapolis to spend a day with John Lind, and in doing so was compelled to send regrets to an elaborate ban- quet arranged by the bench and bar of Chicago in honor of Sir William Ken- nedy and other distinguished dele- gates to the world’s congress. Herr Fahlerantz is particularly impressed with the beneficial effects of the home- stead and homestead exemption laws of the United States, and has endeav- ored in the past to have something milar adopted in Sweden. The crown in control of vast stretches of coun- try, which is well adapted for agricul- ture when it has been cleared. Could this land be apportioned among the peasants of the country who are now merely tenants or farm laborers, the country would receive immediate bene- fit. The American homestead system has not met with approval for principal reasons, one being that the peasants would not long own the land, but would allow it to slip away to the big lumbermen-and speculators who already hold more land than the gov- ernment approves of. Another argu- ment against the American system is that it smacks too much of paternal- ism, and to provide any restrictions regarding the disposal of property is to take away from a man his freedom of action. The latter argument seems a specious one to Americans, who sup- pose that they have advanced ideas on liberty. In an effort to bring the peasants | to the soil and make them free hold- ers, a fund of 10,000,000 kr. has been obtained and from this loans will be made to those who wish to obtain land. The terms will, of course, be very easy. Herr Fahlerantz thinks that the plan will prove popular though it may not prove as satisfac- tory as the American system. Herr Fahlcrantz expr es surprise over the laws which require a defend- ant in an action to produce the books and records of his business in court. Sweden has no legislation of this character, on the ground that it would constitute an infringement on free- dom, the freedom to conceal the truth being apparently inviolate. He ap- proves of the law which requires the wife’s signature to a deed to make it valid and other measures meet with his hearty approval. Coming from an old conservative country like Sweden and from a: pro- fession so_conservative as that of the law, Herr Fahlerantz impresses one as unusually progressive even to the extent of being a' reformer along mod- | erate lines, however. BURIAL MOUND OPENED. Big Mound at Osberg Found to Have Been Disturbed. The remains of the viking ship found in a burial mound on Oseberg, near Tonsberg, Norway, proves to be of great historical and archaeological value. The vessel is in a poor state of pres- ervation and it is doubtful whether it can be restored, as was the famous Gokstad ship, which was dug up twelve or fourteen years ago. Two large chests were found in the cham- ber and here and there were found several articles of iron, two stones for a hand mill, and a large blanket on which was woven the figure of a knight. It was plain that the mound had been entered before and plunder- |ed of its jewelry and weapons. The positions of the skeietons indicated plainly that they had been disturbed. Playing at War.

In four weeks form the time started taking them I ‘was able to make my garden.
