He was slain by Elccua,\nthe god of injury, and acsccndcd,,into\nHeaven from a Cciba, or god tree,\nin thc inonth of May. It is in thc\nmonth of May, therefore, that the\nBrujos observe their holy week, when\nChango is expected to make a week's\nvisit to the earth, descending by the\nCciba, has sacred tree, , always on\nMonday.\nThc followers of Elccua do not directly offer human sacrifice, although\ntheir healers .sacrifice the lives of\nsonic patient by giving them, poisonous concoctions, supposedly a mysterious aire for somc ailment, in order to restore to health some other\npatient.

He is not looking to an\neventual sale, nor to thc illusory enjoyment of doing nothing in thc city,\nbut takes a genuine interest in thc\nvocation itself. lie has found out\nthat, while the land responds readily\nto small attentions from the farmer,\nit in no wise demands that he think\nexclusively of his tilling \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd and of his\nneighbor's affairs, and neglect his\nduties as a member of thc body'poli-\ntic.

Ile believes lhat\nthe slovenly farm is no more effective\nthan the slovenly office. Ue tears out\nthe unsightly system of makeshifts,\nthat so readily betray thc incompetent fanner, and replaces thcm with\nstrong, lasting fixtures.

Many of\nthe purchasers arc Americans, who\nhavc been forced by increased rents\nto seek new localities. Thcy have\nfound that the rents which \"they\nwould have to pay in the United\nSlates would go far toward the purchase of farms of their own in Manitoba, and this inducement has led to\nmany sales by the company of farm\nlands in the province.\nThe company is receiving many\ninquiries for land in the Bulkley\nvalley, Biitish Columbia,'along the\nline of thc G.T.P.
