Bellboy's Suggestion Would Seem to Be Natural Way to Get Around Situation, The Englishman who has been wearing a top hat and a frock coat impressed all who saw him with his distinguished appearance as strolled about with an expansive air in one of the more expensive hotels. On Wednesday morning he came up to a clerk.

"I would like to have a shirt laundered," he said; "I nyist have It back by five o'clock." The clerk told him that the time was unusually short, but he would do what he could, and the shirt was delivered on time. He came down Thursday morning and eaid he wanted another shirt laundered, hut that this oue must be back by two o'clock in the afternoon. The clerk said that would be too short a time. The Briton grew angry and demanded to see the proprietor, lie got as far as the bell hoy captain, to whom he protested that he would not stand for such treatment. The bell boy suggested the purchase of a third shirt.

The terra, "dry farming" does not Indicate all that might be implied.

It does not mean a system of irrigation, but one where all the rain fall and precipitation Is stored up and con-rerved In the soil, to be drawn upon by scientific and sane processes when It may be required to forward and Increase the growth of grain. In certain sections of the Canadian West as well as in tho American West, there Is a portion of the country in which the soil is the very best for the growing of cereals, but the geographical locations and relative position to the rain avenues, do not give the advantage that other parts possess In the matter of precipitation. Agricultural science, however, has been making rapid progress during the past few years, and it is now ascertained that it is not altogether the number of inches of rain that is essential to the growing of crops, but its conservation; and that is the meaning of "Dry farming." "Dry Farming" may well be applied to districts where there is a heavy rain fall and better results will follow. The education of the public Into these new methods, not new exactly, but such as have had satisfactory demonstration, is not alone the purpose of the-e dry-farming Congresses. One idea is to bring Into life and into operation the great areas of splendid land lying within what might be termed serai-arid, without placing them under the restrictive and expansive process of Irrigation.

The Congresses are attended by thousands and they bring representatives from all parts of the world. The Province of Alberta, and also of Saskatchewan, has taken a vital interest in the Congresses which have been held in the past two or three years. The Province of Alberta has made provincial exhibits, districts have shown their products, and last year, several hundred dollars were taken in prizes; this year the Province of Alberta took prizes ten to one in excess of any state In the Union. Alberta has won eight out of twenty special For Infanta and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Mi THE RUB.

An English housemaid sends us her method of cleaning grates, which will, no doubt, be found useful if employed on the gas stove or range. Rub off all rust spots and grease with emery paper and then polish wtih sweet oil. The secret of success lies in always rubbing In one direction, and never backward and forward.

Polish with a piece of chamois or leather. Instead of brushing carpets every day with a whisk broom, cover the broom with a cloth that is slightly dampened and rub it lightly over the carpet In the direction of the pile. By so doing it will not be necessary to sweep the carpet more than once a week, and It will not wear out so soon. ers said he had just received a telegram from Magrath (near Lethbridge) She Needed It. One of the little swarthy cherubs from sunny Italy, wheso great eyes and sweet mouths can be so appealing to their teachers in tho great primary schools In the North end, was Introduced to the public bathing plant the other day, In accordance with the hygienic regulations of the public schools.

She was so delighted that she asked her teacher the next day if her grandmamma could go and en-Joy a bath there. "You see, grandmamma has not had a hath," said the Innocent, "since she first came to this country, and that was 11 years ago." Another little girl objected to taking the prescribed bath, Just now; because, as she explained, her mother had just sewed on her under-flannels for the winter. Still another little Latin remonstrated less decidedly to the bath. She knew It was wrong to be dirty, she admitted, but "it is so warm in the winter time."

A man with New England small town recollections says that one Kan-kee storekeeper used to pull a fig In two to make the pound weight balance to a hair. ThlB same man was also a road contractor, and had to provide lunch, to be eaten by the wayside by the farmers who gave their time to the county two or three days a year.

There was considerable kicking about the lunch, especially the bread and butter. "I always knew old man Jones was pretty tight," said one farmer, "and I know that butter is skeerce and high, hut I didn't think he cut bread with a greasy mm i ffii Beware Cheap Bills. An examination of paper currency by Warren II. IHldltch of Yale showed an average of one hundred and forty-two thousand bacferia on tho bill. Twenty-one bills were examined, and while some were relatively clean, carrying only a trifio of fourteen thousand living things, others swarmed to the figure of live hundred and eighty-six thousand.

And, strange to say, the bacteria did not seem to swarm to the $1,000 bills in preference "to the $1 bills. This shows that it is far healthier to carry $1,000 bills about than It is to tote $1 bills. Here is a valuable financial hint. 1 i 1 I A MI IM1TI-X! NOT MAOtN The Club Man's Potatoes.
