From this import he can decide whether his seed is to to trusted or Tho question of the value of ens Ilage 1ms received a Groat Deal of attention from Tho experimental Farmers and during lust year no interesting bulletin was issued on that subject. Ens Ilage is Ono of Iho revolutionary features of Modem farming. I must not exceed my Synco Aud therefore have ouly room to give a Mere category of the subjects that form matter of Experiment and upon which bulletins will to issued from time to time. Tub of Iokha. Not Tho least important of these is Stock raising and Dairying. These Are compare Lively recent additions to the branches of the farm. They Are under Tho care of prof. J. W.

In fact try us to will to cannot yet Bhavik. Dispense with the gesture language. At Washington on March 1830, seven Ute indians who wore proficient in Tho sign language introduced to seven deaf mutes and conversed with them. The Experiment was entirely successful. They told each other stories and Tho stories wore writ ten Down and examined and found to agree in every particular. Tho indians Aro the Best sign talkers in the world. Tho multiplicity of their dialects renders some general Means of communication Nevi among them and though legend assigns Tho invention of the sign language of the Plains to Tho Kai ways shall not be for wrong in assuming that it is much older than the division of the Indian race into its minor tribes. This language to which we propose to devote some attention is grow. Curiously Complete. By it one Indian con Converse with another from Alaska to Panama. It has its general signs its conversational signs and its tribal signs. Jot us take the general signs first. Tuo Blanket is often used for signalling. When Tho Omaha Dis cover Buffalo the Blan Ket is held out at length with the hands As for apart As can be. When a signal is made to a preach to lower Edge of the Robe or Blanket is waved inward to the legs. The signal of the discovery of enemies game or anything else is to ride round and round in a Circle passing and re passing each other if there is danger. If at any time it becomes necessary to c o m in u u Cate with friends at a distance s m o k o signals of dust Sig nals Are used so Many pillars at Dif f e r e n t intervals apart signifying certain warnings or encouragements. At night a most remarkable system of signalling by Means of arrows of fire is in use. Tho arrows Are wrapped with Tow round their Heads the Tow is dipped in some resinous matter and lighted and Tho blazing Mes Senger is then shot aloft to be visible Over a wide extent of country and by Many to be mistaken for a meteor. Take bad for in stance. Tho Genei no sign for this is to scat Tor the right hand fun Gers outward As if Sun. Spurting away water from them. But Omo fag the Arapahoe the fingers of the right hand Ore half closed the thumb is hooked Over the Foro Aud Middle fungo is the hand is moved Back upward a foot or so toward Tho object referred to and then Tho Flag i a Are scattered so As to show that tha object is Only Worth throwing away. But it is with Tho conversational feigns that most interest lies. Over and Over again furs have been sold leases i anted and treaties made in Tho f or what without a word being spoken Between to parties. The Indian interpreters Oil played by Tho United states government Ore All proficient in this wonderful Universal Laug Nago and though it varies in differ ent districts yet its meaning is always in . Some of the gestures used Aro Stingely eloquent. ,4 you Only knew the absolute feeling of luxury and Comfort wearing health Brand under vests meant you would never dream of buying anything else. Every first class retail dry goods store in Canada has them for Sale. Remember unless stamped you will not be getting the right thing. For Friend to give the Dakota sign. 11 i s worthy of note that an Indian rarely shakes Haub with indians that is a ceremony to reserves for his Pale face Friend.

As a nation of to should class the italians far Bolow Tho French but owing to their Peculiar divisions it has been found indispensable to Havo one general language and to keep it at a fair average of cultivation. A most striking example of the perfection to which sign language Civ be brought forced itself into history in 1283.
