Alberta Country Fast Coming to the Front. The Canadian TacUic Railway com pany is now engaged in a great irriga tion work, just east of Calgary, that will eventually bring under water lf 500,000 acres of as fine land as there is in all of Canada. They have just thrown open to settlement the firm block of 110,000 acres, which they are selling at from $15.00 to $25.00 per acre. In connection with this irri gated land they are selling non-irigahle 'lands at from $12.00 to $15.00 per acre, which cannot be surpassed for'grazing purposes, and affords a range where flock may graze throughout the entire year without shelter. The future of Western Canada, and particularly the southern portion of Al berta province, is assured. Calgary, its metropolis, a city of 20,000 inhab itants, comosed largely of Americans, is a live, up-to-date city. Its retail business is in the hands of bright, pro gressive business men, who handle enormous stocks There are a number of jobbing houses located there, and a home market for ttock is afforded by a large packng house. Along the line of the Canadian Pacific railway in South ern Alberta, there have been twenty elevators established the past year, to be followed by thirty more next year, so that there will be no shortage for the immense crops produced in this section.

Eighty-Seven Years Old, but Has a ' Sound Back. ISobert Scollan, 87 years old, of 55 Garden Street, Seneca Falls, N.

There has been much adverse criti cism of the Spencer Seedless Apple, notably in the Rural New Yorker and some of its satellites. The opinion of a recognized horticulturist, who has made a thorough examination of the apple, being allowed free range in the orchard where they are grown, should bo valuable to those who are thinking of planting these trees, as well as to those who by reason of the criticisms have been deterred from purchasing. A company was recently organized in Canada to handle the Spencer Seedless Apple trees, but the adverse criticisms alarmed tlve organizers, anil they re fused to proceed further with the nego tiations until they could have the prop osition thoroughly examined by an ex perienced horticulturist of reputation of their own selection. This was readily assented to; and as a result the Hon. John Dryden, who for more than twen ty years was minister of agriculture for the province of Ontario, wiuj selected to examine and report on this apple. for the sjKjrt derived from It and as a t&it of marksmanship, In other words, bloodless dueling or fencing with pis tols, Las been made possible through the Invention by a Frenchman of a .harmless wax projectile. This new di version Is really no more serious than fencing with swords and has that spice of realism In it that tends to make any sport popular. The new bullet Is an Ingenious de vice and required a great deal of ex periment before being perfected. The situation was thus: A heavy projec tile must necessarily have a wounding force, a light one loses Its precision and a soft bullet will be changed In shape and describe an Irregular trajec tory; therefore a harmless projectile to be effective must differ from all these. The Frenchman's product Is a spherical ball of wax-fat, with a small charge, and In tests twenty-four balls were lodged In succession In a rectan gle four by five inches at twenty yards. At a six-day tournament held In the Tuilerles the efficiency of the wax bul let was demonstrated. ine combatants wear thick screens for masks, with heavy glass over the eyes, and wear thick clothing to pre vent bruising from the Impact of the balls. The distance is 25 paces and the weartons are revolvers. The director of the combat, keeping his gaze fixed upon a metronome which heats eighty to 100 times a minute, makes the in quiry as in an actual duel, "Are you ready?" and when they reply "Yes" the director, timing his words exactly to the beats of the pendulum, cries, "Fire one two three !" At the command "Fire!" the adver saries raise their weapons and shoot. The two shots must be made before the command "Three!" As the par ticipants In these trials were experts they made a good average, hitting tjieir man six or seven times out of eight shots. Although more than 1,000 halls were fired, there was not the slightest accident. The wax bullets can he used In apart ments as well as in the open air with out the inconvenience of the lead hall of small caliber, which will probably ead to its introduction into the armies of the various nations for practice shooting.
