A young muni reflnnll In appearance

great surprise and he started for-
ward, reached the old structure In ad-
vance of the girl on horseback, nodded
gravely as she leaned from the sad-
dle and clasped his baud with mani-
fest warmth and feeling and he helped
her dismount and silently helped her
to a bench nn the dismantled porch.
"We had better sit in the sbnde,"
he suggested, "She did not come with
you7" and his eyes scanned the face
of the elder sister of trio woman he
laved, full of eager longing.
"It Is better so, Roger," spoke Merry
Langdon. "11 would he cruel to her,
It could do you no good. You don't
know how sorry I feel 'for you both,"
and the gentle eyes were filled with
tears, "She has sent the letters and
your presents," and Mercy extended a
small package.
The young man necepted it with
quivering frame, drew from his pocket
a siruilar packet, pressel his lips to
it In a reverent way, and averted this
face to hide his poignant emotion. The
woman regarded hint pitifully no she

as a means of prevention of disease,
Used in -conjunction with legumes it
has a rather different meaning. The
neer: ity of using an artificial means
of insut•ing the presence of nitrogen

long since recognized. It is a wise
grower therefore, who purchases and
use: nitro-cillturee along with the
best quality of seed obtainable.
i Some farmers report no need of
inoculating on their $011. Similarly,
Bore petiole have never contracted
typhoid during an epidemic. That is
no insurance that they will always b •
immune, In order to insure the pro-•
eel• bacteria being present and

—it is usually safe to inoculate the
seed with a culture. On soils where.

cessfully this: necessity is minimized

Colonization and 1)ovelopprnent of
the Canadian Parilie Ileilwuy, the
largest and mast effective addition to
Canadian population of any similar
period since the outbreak of the Great
War, In the opinion of authorities it
is hot unrettsonttble for the Dominion
to expert over 200,000 new citizens,
or about 70,000 more thau during the
year I92 6. I)urin0 this year Canada
ret.eived 11(11;38.1 settlers,
Several faetore tend towards this

the most potent fn the gradual evolu-

being reoefved, it is reported. Already
this year ue11 over 9,000 settlers have
been landed in" Canada by 'tire
Canadian Pacific liners plying be-

land. Itis interesting to note that
about sixty per cent'of the applicants
are miners and others who have some
knowledge of and experience at farm
work.
The volume of pertinent inquiries
from "United States Agriculturists
with regard to western Canadian
farming pros4erts, has been much

movement to develop however is that
of tobacco growers from North' and
South Carolinas Virginia and other
states to Western Ontario, being
attracted by the rosy prospects new

industry.

out: that it was a mistake to consider
that homesteading Is altogether a
thing of the past as a factor of
western Canadian development,
During the year 1926 homestead
occupations in the sveot amounted to
an increase of 60 per cent' over the
occupations for.- the previous year,
and accounted for the oceepatjOf of
nearly a 011111on acres of raw land.
This movement in continuing ar l

The most significant factor today,
