Shaw is in receipt of a let- ter from his brother, Thoniaa Shaw, who is now in Europe purchasing thorough -bred cattle for James J. Hill, giving the information that many aris- tocratic bovines will be added to Mr Hill's herd. The very beat which can be found across the water are being selected, and the question of price is not entering into the matter to any great extent, as 12,000 has been paid for a bull, and others are being bought at correspondingly high prices. The letter states that twenty-eight shorthorns and twelve Ayrshires have been purchased, and that the writer has visited many lands before buying the shorthorns, as he was determined to get only the beat. Ile continues' \I am positive that we have bought the beat herd of shorthorns that ever left England. The average price for them was $600, and for the Ayrahires, $350. One of the bulls cost $2,000, and was a 4 -year -old at that. No one can tell ins dual purpose cattle cannot be bred. The highest priced cattle in England are the dual shorthorns. Many -give 10.000 pounds of milk per year. and at the same time produce the hest of beef steers. I have securet1 twenty-two Oxfords and twenty-two Shropshire, sheep, and Mr. Hill has cabled me to get three Angus bull, and I am starting tonight for Aber- deen, Scotland, to get them.\ liefore returning. Mr. Shaw will visit Holland for the purpose of obtaining a herd of Holsteins. and from there sill go to France to buy French dairy cattle, a breed little known in this country. Mr. Shaw was for several years head of the agricultural college at Guelph. Ontario. and was afterward an instructor in the University of Minor , - ante. Ile is the author of fifteen works on agricultere, many of there being. need as text hpoinsAn . the. dif- ferent colleges, and Is designated by James 3. Hill as one of the best—if not the best --agriculturalist in America. Going Back to the Farm. One of the most serious problems that confronts the economic world to- day is to keep young men on the farms. For many years there has been a tendency to congregate in the cities, and to such an extent has this been carried, that all the vocations of city life have been so overcrowded that today it is well nigh impossible for a stranger to get a foothold. For every situation there are a score of applicants, and the young man who has no influential friends to render him aid, is indeed unfortunate. We have long believed that this condition of af- fairs would correct itself. One of the reasons that our young men have been to willing to leave the old country home has been the lack of country at- tractions. This can hardly be said to hold good today. The trolley car. telephone and free rural delivery have well-nigh wiped out the distinctions between city and suburban life. An- othef powerful factor now working for the upbuilding of the country life is the agricultural college. Our young men are fast learning that farming is longer the haphazard business f a former day, but is one of the most ex- actir g and scientific pursuits. NVith this knowledge comes a higher respect for the vocation and a stronger desire to enter the industry. The tide is thus gradually but surely turning, and the time is near at hand. when farming will be held tn the same regard here, that it has long been in England. In that country, when a man achieves financial success, -he- at once seeks . a country estate for a home. Here the reverse has long held true, and the city home has been held up as the ideal. This false system of, ethics is rapidly going to the wall, and' a more exalted idea of country life is taking its place. Rich and poor alike, are beginning to take to the farm. It is the ideal spot for a home. How to Treat Your Town Praise it. Improve it. Talk about' ii. Trade at home. Be public spirited. Take a home pride in it. Tell of its business men. Remember it is your home. Tell of its natural advantages. Trade,\ and induce others to trada here. When strangers come to town, use them well. Don't call your best citizens frauds and impostors. Support your local institutions that benefit your town. Look ahead of self when all the town is to he considered. - Help your public officers do the most good for the most people. Don't forget you live off the people here, and you should help others as they help you. I)on't ad vett ise in the local Paper \to help the editor,\ but advertise to help yourself.

A Gun Accident Wile a party of men were examin- ing an old rifle at Spion Kop last Sat- urday evening, it was discharged and the ball passed through the hand of Mr. Robert McCree, inflicting a pain- ful but not dangerous wound.
