Editor, The Canadian Countryman: The opinions we get from farmers on the profits to be made from feeding cattle are varied. Many dairy fartners will show us by facts and figures that the dairy Cow is much more profitable than the feeding of young cattle to sell as stockers or finished beeves; yet we notice in some cases that even these enthusiastic dairymen as soon as they have not help in their own family to do the work and are dependent on hired help to run their dairy, turn their attention to the feeding of young cattle to sell as stockers or beef. In order to make cattle feeding pro- fitable when the market ie low, cheap ( feed and cheap land have much to do in deciding the profits to be obtained. Baby beef may be the most profit- able where land is dear and men are following intensive farming; but whore a man has a lot of cheap land and hie grass floes not cost him very much, by growing rape, corn silage and such cheap food, it is quite pos- sible for him to handle a class of feed- ers at a profit, that the man on dear land and limited area could not possib- ly make, We do not mean to say that every man ought to make a specialty of cattle feeding, for a good deal of the success or failure of his business de- pends upon the man himself, as to his ability to know how and when toy buy or sell and when to leave it alone, as well as his fondness for that particular worst. The cattle feeder is never able to de- pide by the experience of one year what his profit may be for the next, as in no two years will the price of his feed be the same. One kind of feed will be cheap and another dear, One year Stockers are low in price, the next high and. beef prices are also constantly fluctuating. So that for this reason the giving of figures to show the cost ,or the profit from one year's operations might be a poor guide for the next. Probably one of the items of profit. that is sometimes under -estimated, is the value of the fertility furnished to our fans for if we want to succeed in farming it is very irapei ant that we feed our farm, and the farm in turn will feed us. Men who are specializing in dairying or horses, sheep or swine, where they do not care to nee their feed for finishing cattle, might profitably sell a few stockers to men wale are in a bet- ter position to finish them, Tho writer's experience for the past thirty years hasbeen that y t at four ears out of five we were ahead .by feeding pattle. Ocpasionally when we have to cell on a batt paarret the profit hat been on the wronh aide of the sheet.

Among the subscribers were Indians and Eskimos, one Eskimo Chief, Chickehilaock by name, having sub- scribed twenty dollars to the Patrio- tic Fund and two dollars to the 13e1- gian Relief Fund. Into what remote corners of the earth the effects of the war have penetrated, and if those corners are British those effects produce similar results — the desire to assist the Empire, the readiness to make Pcommon u sacrifice for the cause. Practical interest in the war has been shown from the very first by our organized Indian population --by the treaty Indians on the re- servations—not only by those in the Eastern Provinces whore the Indians are surrounded by a white popula- tion, but also by the Indians on the western reservations where the In- dians come less in contact with the Whites. For instance, the report from an agency in Northern Saskat- chewan states: "The Indians here have shown a great •interest in the war, Many of them have subscribed for papers and. are keenly interested in what is tak- ing place. Two of their number, graduates of Brandon industrial school, have enlisted with the 28th Battalion, now in Winnipeg, and four or five others are anxious to go, and will probably enlist. Many of them have contributed freely to the Pat- riotic Fund; and when a branch of the Red Cross Society was ,formed, the old Indians as well as the young were anxious to join." The people of Canada have desired to deal justly, even generously, with the aborigines. Mistakes no doubt have been made, but, on the whole, our policy has been fair and wise; and these contributions are some of the fruits. This contribution from the Far North recalls the lone trail over which the Dawson -McPherson patrol makes its journey each winter. The distance covered in making the trip one way is 460 miles—almost as far as from Montreal to St. John, N.B.; and last year the outward journey was made In twenty-seven days of actual traveling. The report of that trip tells something of winter in the Far North, ,and also enables one to see how faithfully and efficiently the North-West patrol perform their task, The patrol consisted of four mem- bers of the force, two Indians, with twenty police dogs. Besides food and equipment, the patrol carried 30 pounds of .mail for Fort McPherson and Herschel! Islands. "We met," says the report, "one band of Indians at the foot of. the Cariboo Born Mountains, who were In poor circumstances, having no provisions whatever. They were making their way south to the Wind River to hunt caribou. We passed three families living in cabins on the Peel River. These people were living entirely on rabbits." The weather is described as good, although during the last ten days of the trip the mercury stood from forty to fifty degrees below zero. Many caribou were seen; five were shot, two being used and three cach- ed in the snow for the use of the re- turn patrol. They also cached for the same purpose one hundred and fifty pounds of dried meat, five pounds of tea, eight pounds of to- bacco, three hundred pounds of dried fish, some hour, bacon, and beans. The diary of the patrol closes with the arrival at Fort McPherson—"all men in good shape, and dogs in first- class condition." The return patrol made the -jour- ney in seventeen days, the greater speed being due to milder weather and a better trail. A band of In- dians was met, and as they had just killed twelve caribou, they were in ,plenty- Here one comes upon an ef- fect of the war, "None of the In- dians are trapping fur," states the report. "This is due to the extreme- ly low prices being paid for pelts," The Eskimo chief with the long name does not dwell along this trail. The home of his people is on the 6'hores of the Arctic near Herschell island, and the money he contribut- ed was Likely received for work per- formed or supplies of some kind furl' cashed the whalers who make Her- eche.11 Island their base, The total Eskimo population along the shores of the Canadian North- land which begins at Labrador and reaches around to the frontier of nbem- ired four s throe t Alaska, i and forty, Not more than a 'ew hundred are in the vicinity of elerschell Island, I PR CE $5.25 WAY NriFYYY/� PRICE. $15.25 "LATEST WONDER IN PHONOGRAPHS" THE 'gr • t st N A 3 "COMPARES WITH TI -Ig BEST BY ACTUALL TEST" A phonograph second to none, yet at a price 00 home eau afford to be without, It's beauty of tone. and clearness of reproduction are marvelous, Play any OM record, vocal, instrumental, land, etc. FOR SA1.1' AT A.

Neontrc al Street Railway D Ia torent Iles Many Romances. "What Is sin in others is only an experiment with us," SQ wrote the great Emerson many years ago. In. its very truth this suggests that some persons may do wrong because they fuel It is no harm for them, while if any one else attempted it the gravest offence would be pro- nounced, and a sentence of serious- ness added. This all leads up to the honesty of most people in the world, Ninety per cent, of people are hon- est, and will do what is right if given half a.chance, And then when one thinks of the augmented popula- tion of a new country, and the chances for different habits in these additions, it becomes all the more in- teresting and convincing when re- ferring to the lost articles depart- ment of such a cosmopolitan and extensive organization as that of the Montreal Tramways Company, Lim- ited, There are many instances of com- mon honesty on the street every day. The newsboys' cash box left unguard- ed; the piles of fresh papers on the steps of public buildings, etc., to which passersby might help them- selves, leaving their pennies in a common heap; the articles being con- stantly dropped and returned to their owners; the open air display of goods and edibles, but the most striking display of honesty in all its phases is the lost article department of tho Tramways Company, Most of telt' big sturee maintain lost articles do parttxeuts, but none have so extensive and well balanced a department as the Tramways Company. This is natural because they deal with more people in a day than any other corporation in the city. Honesty with the company is one of the routine matters of business, and it has grown to be a very consid- erable undertaking. It is difficult to think of any article of any size that can be carried, which is not to be found in the lost article department. There have been things as heavy and- ridiculous as a lawn mower, a keg of pickles, a baby, a tog, a cat, and a baby carriage, etc. Perambulators have often been for- gotten. Most of these, however, have been of the folding up kind. Probab- ly the host odoriferous was a Pack - ago of Frankfurters. Probably the least valuable wars a bundle of old newspapers, and the most valuable would be a purse full of diamonds, and ono purse with three or six hun- dred dollars in cash within les folds. The tips for these have never been known to exceed a dollar and for the very one in question full of diamond: a quarter in cash was, tendered. Probably the most annoying part of it all to the tramway people it that they are always blamed for the loss no matter/where the passenger may have been visiting prior to the ride on the cars, Then there is the masa of folks traveling on the cars who pick up things long before any chance 1s given the lost article de- partment or the Thus or motor men to see, Thus the spirit of fair- ness should be abroad and the give - and -taste idea more remembered, The great plethora of things left Would be impossible to detail, It is a dull day that does not see at least twenty to fifty articles added to the list of lost, and that is exclusive of 'umbrellas, the latter in number ex- ceeding in quantity ale other articles, It would almost seem impossible on rainy days for anyone to forgot on umbrella, but the average of finds of this sort run into about flftee}t daily, All winter there is an eyerftge of one hundred and fiety, ymbrellas in stock, and one reiny day• saw as many as fifty brought into the department. Every article that gets 'into the hands o1 this department has to go through a regular routine of wait- ing. For the period of a nigptb the finds of every day are }taut in a ape- ci 1 locker bee1_i g that dato, After that tittle they are distributed accord- ing to their bulk and value Vatting fort laiinants C , A VISIT TO Sill SAM. Detroit Journalist Gives Impressions of Minister of Militia. A. member of the Detroit Journal staff, Charles D. Cameron, went to Ottawa recently to see the Canadian Minister of Militia, and this is what he wrote about his visit: Tho X-ray 'photograph showed a split knee -cap, but with the split in the stout limb healed by gristle. The leg was not that of an invalid, but that of an athlete. Yet that photograph had just been taken .of the stalwart Maj. -Gen. Sir Sam Hughes, Minister of Militia and Defence in the Canadian Cabinet, member of Parliament, Knight Com- mander of the Bath, who fought in the Fenian Raidin 1870 despite the statement that he was too young, and won glory in the Boer War despite the assertion that he was too old. And there sat Maj. -Gen. Sir Sam Hughes before me in his headquar- ters office, a man built like a tall cannon, his coat off, showing his strong -built frame in a khaki waist- coat and army shirt, the strong, clear smooth face with its crown of grey hair showing the vigor of 35 tem- pered by the experience of 63. The firm -lipped Minister of Militia, who will have commanded more men than ever rallied to Wellington, when Canada's 500,000 have answered the summons, smiled and then grinned as he looked at the X-ray photo- graph. And after the introduction and the hand -cracking handshake, the Min- ister of Militia smiled and then grin- ned as he looked at the photograph. "Of course, Iwas a model boy,' he said. "But I wanted—a bow avd arrow." Then followed the story of 'Sam Hughes' first war measure. "I wanted a bow and arrow, as every normal kid doe8, doesn't he?" "There was a big knife very near to my bow and arrow. I was not supposed to touch it. I bad to climb to get it. I climbed, I touched the knife, and it canoe down edge first, and struck fine in the knee, and split the knee -cap. 'I didn't finish the bow and arrow that day. They tended to my leg, They wanted to tend to it a lot. They even talked amputation, but my folies declared I might go through life on to crutch, but not on a peg. "Well," 'said the general, "that leg has won a champion North American foot race. That leg has taken one stirrup for me, iu riding mere miles In the saddle than any otlr man in the world, In fact, I aye so much better oft than most Men who never got hit with a big knife, that I just had a curiosity to see knife, had hap- eened to do me so nFUch good! • "You are from the States, eh? Well, we have lots of Yankees fight - tag With us," said the general. All Americans are Yankees to General Hughes. "Boys will fight.
