The following letter appeared in a re- cent issae of the New York Scottish American: New *Vora, May 2, 1010. Dear Sir,— The, Rev. Dr. N. D. Hillis, of Plymouth Clturch, Brooklyn, N.Y., took far his. sub- ject on Sunday, 24th ult., "Our Coun- try," and in the course of his remarks had the following• to say of Canada: OLD TESTAMENT BOOKS IN RHYME.

They sliow a sligatt de- crease eompared with the average monthly waste of 1909, which was $1, - The total number of firm eTc'ettialing $10,000 was twenty-sevem representing a loss of $1,285,000. Three of these fires account for over 50 per cont. of the total. The fol- lowing is the estimate of the April losses: Eiree exceeding $10,000, $1,, 285,000; entail fires, $20M250; fif- teen per cent. for unreported firm. $223,987. Total, $1,717,237, At the rate of three every two work- ing days, the fire fiend. burned the lives of 37 Canadian readouts during Apra This total ie the highest since the Mone- tary Times commenced to keep these mi. cords. The following are some of the causes of those fatalities: Smoking in bed, 2; burning house, 4; aonfires, 2; -overturned lamp, 3; playiug with, match- es, 2, "That ultimately the continent will be one, through it e iostitutions, no thought- ful man can doubt. The overflow of our population into Canada will be more and more, and. the time is not far distant in the terms of the century when the American element will outrumber all other vote, and the land be one from Behring Straits to El Paso. As for Mexico, we are now buying her mines, - her forests, her plantationsnwhile Am- erican/ capital is now starting toward South America. Already it is controlled by the Monroe doctrine. This western continent was built for a centre. We shall soon need the great . southern con- tinent for our overflow families. nuit as a field for our investments. The hour is big with destiny for America; the in- stitutions of t� -day, like acors, hold the oaks of to -morrow." In reply to Dr. Hillis, I would remind him that ealestiny" is not exclusively liraited to the United. States.. At this hour it is playing a very prominent part in the prosperity of Canada and other British possessions. A prorainene Canadian said recently, "Canada, why, we have only as yet skirted round the edge and scratched the surface," and "the great Southern eontinent," and other Latin, nations., "The overflow population of the :United States into Canada" is proof that those good people do not care to wait for the "acorns of to -day" to become American oake. They evidently prefer to be sturdy Canadian maples. With that idea they are leaving an at- mosphere of wholesale murders, sui- cides, lynchings, black hands, scandalous divorces, civil and political corruption, and graft for the purer atmosphere of the rich Canadian prairies', and the bless - ea privileges of the good old British con- stitution. Like the children of Israel of old, they are entering a fair land of rich promise, literally "flowing with milk and honey," and innumerable other good things. It may be that in the course of time other nations., as well as the United States, "will need the great southern continent for the overflow of their. familica, and. as a field for their investments." Does any right-thinking person believe for a moment that Germany's great mile itary and naval preparations are aimed a.gainst Britain? Bosh! I would not be the least eurprised to hear that her intentions are in quite a different diree- tiom She inight exercise her navy for a little while smashing that bugaboo, the Monroe doctrine, and thus find an outlet for her surplus population, The Germans are a splendid race eta next * • • GOOD BLOOD GOOD HEALTH LAY FIR WEEKS AT DEATH'S DOOR But Dodti's Kidney Mita cured Mra.

Ontario fareare who have gone into alfelfe, experimentally belie proved lee eend the shadow of a deubt that this 18 the best paying fodder crop that an agriculturiet can grow. Alfalfa, lute been known sInce 490. B. 0., and, Was sueeeeetally grown in Greeee and Rome nearly MOW years ago. In the Siete of Kansas, where In 1831 30..000 neves grown, while last ever near- ly A Million nem mats of alfalfa, were under crop, neulting in notelet financial benefit, to the feruters of this State. There are five =mut varieties, viz.: American, Turlostan, Arabian, Peruvian and German, but for Ontario the Ameri- can variety is best suited. A.Ifalfa, unlike many other crops, en- riches the soil rather than empoverishes it. The route exteud into the earth from five to twelve feet, reecliiiig down aud bringing to the surface nitrogen and other valuable mineral plant food. It bas been gram], continuously on A farm in one of the counties; of this Province for nearly thirty years, and still pro. duces good crops. It eau be grown suc- cessfully ou sandy,. lieavy Mem Mate or on nearly Ally variety of soil properly drained. Successful experiments with it have been coudneted on a limited scale with success uearly every part of 'On- tario both with and without a. uureing crop. • Spring sowing has elven best re- sults, If sown with a nursing crop bar- ley at the rate of One Intshel per acre is an excellent one for this purpose. Eighteen or twenty pounds per acre of alfalfa is the proper quantity of seed. Front three to four erops can be harvest- ed at ene seam and. the average heigla of a plant runs from fourteen to twenty. inches. Winn about one-third of, the crap is in bloom is an excellent time to start cutting, as it then possesses its greatest food value. The cutting shined be dane in the forenoon when the dew is off the grass and. the tedder should fol. low iminediately and be kept at work until late iit the afternoon end the crop left in Windrows, This process ,thould be repeated the following day and the hay put in coils And left for several days. It should not be cut too close to the ground, as tbe plant may be injured tliereby. The yield per acre of green crop is about 20 tons, and of dry hay five. It should not be allowed to remain too long in the hot sun as the leaves are liable to become dry and break off, and they contain most of the nutriments. Seed is produced best from either first or see- ond cuttings and averages five bushels per acre, although it Mmetimes runs as high as ten. Alfalfa, hay contains about 50 per cent, more digestible protein tban hay made from red clover. It reakee eplendid pasture for horses or hogs, but care 13 required wlien sheep or cattle are turn- ed in as there is a tentlency to bloat if allowed to eat too much, especially when the genes is wet. An application of about twelve loads of barn yard manure per ,aere every four years has proved very satisfactory. Fertilizers containing phosphate have given the best results. When tt field of alfalfa is ploughed down the surface soil is eompletely filled With roots rich in fertile elements. It is to be hoped that every -Memo in Ontario, who has suitable, well. drain- ed soil, will put in a field of this most desirable crop. J. Leckie Wilson. o •••• His Light, Facetious Tone. In this busy age eaten Canada is malt- ing a name for herself with big things, water powers, timber lituits, railroads, real estete deals and so on, it is perhaps its well to remind. ourselves that the or- dinery farm operations occasionally show very big thinge. We hear now and then of poor ,-cows and low yields of milk, so we need. constantly to bear in mind that huge things ere accomplished by the proper combination of the brainy dairyman, •good feed anil the selected cow. We have plenty of .good cows in Canada, some that give 10,000, 15,000 and 20,000 pound e of milk in a year. One or two big records were made in March by excellent cows, one lot of six in one herd giving a total yield of 9,388 pounds of milk, and some giving as nutch as seventy pounds of —"ic in one day; think of it, enough to supply the needs of 56 ordinary people at the rate of ono pint each.. Such cows are not picked up every day; they are not average cows, but they aro an indication of what is be- ing accomplished by brain work, applied intelligence in dairying. We need to mein that it is perfectly feasible to do a good deal more raising, not only the much needed raising Of the general sten- dard of the average cow, so that the 3,000 pounder is no longer "in our midst," but the raising of aagood many more cows of at least the 10,000 pound type. Dairy records of milk produced ena feed consumed will soon show whieh cow in the stable of the average dairy- man is not worth keepitig, and which will resporid to more liberal feeding so as to produce milk in abundance. Cow test- ing associations will help every dairy- man to success; join the nearest to you or assist in forming a new one. -0. F. W. - Rhodesia Doing Well. The annual report recently issued by the directors of the British South Africa Overmany discloses that Rhodesia is de- veloping with venutricable strides. For the year ended March 31, 1908, the com- pany advanced to the various local rail- ways no less than $1,400,000. • For the last fiscal year this item fell to $885,000, a decrease of more than half a •million dollars, while the estimated amount that the company will be requir- ed to advance for the current year is only $100,000. In other wordalthodesia's railroads have now become practically self-supporting, with every indication that they will prove a source of sub- stantial income in the near future. A large packing company has recently bought 400,000 acres of ranching land in Southern Rhodesia'one of the terms of the purchase beingthat the area must be fully stoeked within five years.

At a basebal banquet in Cleveland made last year the only unassisted trade Neal Bali, the famous shortstop, who made last year the only unassisted triple May in the history of the major leagues, said in the course of a neat, humorous address: "Women are more intelligent on the average than men. Of that I am con- vinced. Why won't women then learn to understand baseball? I have never yet succeeded in making clear to one woman the difference between an unassisted triple play and a foul fly. "So, with the ladies I adopt a, light, facetious tone in baseball matters. A lady onee said to me: "1 love baseball, Mr. Ball. I love es- pecially to watch the man at the bat. It Is so cute too the way he keeps hitting tho ground gently with the bat's end. Why does he do that, though?'

In the northern hemisphere Argelander has re- gistered 324,000 stars down to the Me nutgnitude, and, with the aid of the best photometric data, Agnes M. Clark's new "System of the Stars" gives the sum of the light of these northern stars as equivalent to 1-400 of full moonlight, while the total light of all stars similar- ly enumerated. in both hemispheres, to the number of about 90,000 is roughly placed at 1-180 of the lunar brightness. The scattered light of still fainter celes- tial bodies is difficult to compute. By a photographic method Sir William Abbey rated the total starlight of both hemis- pheres at 1-100 of full moonlight, and Professor Newcomb, in 1901, from visual observations of all stars at just seven hundred and twenty-eight times that of Capella, or 1 -89 -of the light of the full 1110011. It is not certain, however, that the sky would be totally dark if all stars were blotted out. Certain processes make the upper atmosphere strongly luminous at times, and we cannot be sure that this light would be totally absent.—Harper's Weekly, 4 • Knowsitt—Mliss Antique is certainly a self-possessed woman, Cauatique—Yes, and I don't imagine ithe'll ever get a Ounce to duspose of the property. --Bos- ton Globe.
