SIR WILLIAM VAN HORNE
Tile Builder of the Canadian Pacific.
Sir William Van Horne, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Canadian
Pacific R. R., is the most versatile man in Canada. He is a railroad builder who
defied obstacles that would have daunted most able men; he is a collector of paint-
ings and is a painter of ability; he is a deep student and a pleasing talker; he is a
successful amateur farmer; he is the head and prime mover in dozens of big enter-
prises which he handles sitnultaneously with the ease of a Japanese juggler tossing
balls into the air; and he is invading Cuba and Guatemala with the great advance -
agent of civilization—railways.
He was born near Joliet, I11., in 1843, a lineal descendant of one of the Dutch
founders of New Amsterdam, the germ from which the great city of New York has
evolved. At fourteen thelcieath of his father made it necessary for him to secure
the living the world owes to everyone who works day and night to collect the debt.
He was first telegraph operator on the Illinois Central, then went into the service
of the Michigan Central where he remained six years, leaving to be train dispatcher
of the Alton, there rising successively to the position of superintendent of telegraph
and divisional superintendent: He afterward occupied managing positions on the
St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern, Southern Minnesota, Chicago and Alton,
and Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railways, going.froin the Tatter to the Can-
adian Pacific as general manager,
The inception of this, one of the world's. greatest railway systems, was due
to the patriotism, courage and enterprise of Lords _Mount Stephen and Stratheona
and other capitalists; but the virtual building of the road and putting into the
completed work the soul of a mig-hty purpose, the boundless energy, vitality and
brain that have made it what it is, was the work of Sir William Van Horne. In
1554 he became vice-president of the road and four years later was made president
His splendid organizing ability, his mastery of detail, his infinite resourcefulness,
his conquest of obstacles—all.- find their lasting monument in this splendid work.
He has the visions into the future that distinguish all great leaders; he sees the oak
in the acorn, he sees in imagination the busy town with its teeming population,
where other men see only a possible good site for a town. For him to see a need,
is to plan; for him to plan, is to execute.
In 1894, Queen Victoria, recognizing the marvelous impetus he had given to
Canada, conferred on him an honorary knighthood, which he modestly accepted
as a tribute to his railroad, and has since carried his honors with the simplicity,
grace and dignity of a large -minded, broadgauge man.

consecutive crops of wheat. As a rule,
the farmer recognizes the food needs of
the wheat plant, but too often does he
Iook upon the apple or fruit tree as a
mere tenant of the soil, and one which
is not to be regarded as a specific crap.
Having recognized the principles, the
particnter method of orcharding must
be worked out by the fruit grower him-
self. This method will depend upon
soil conditions and climate. Neverthe-
less, it is safe to say that in eight cases
out of ten that method which employs
clean triage at least part of the season
will be most snccessfn. It is also safe
to say that all secondary crops in or-
chards are injurious. --Prof. John Oraig
