SOME WONDERFUL CROPS IN
WESTERN CANADA.
The Territorial Government Report,
Show Results Beyond BELIEF.

Regina, Assineboia, Canada. January
1Oth.-At the Agricultural Statistics
Branch of the Department of Agricul-
ture for the Territories, reports are
now being received from grain thresh-
ers throughout the Territories. for
statistical purposes. The reports are
somewhat delayed this year, owing to
the extensive crop and the DELAY in
getting it threshed. The Department
of Agriculture is leading the way in
new departure, with regard to the
collection of crop statistics. In the
older provinces, crop estimates are
based entirely on the opinion of per-
sons interested in the grain business
who ought to be, and no doubt are.
well posted upon the probable yields.
Still the reports are simply a matter
of opinion, in which a mistake NAV
easily be made. The Territorial De-
partment, however, has adopted the
system of returns of crops actually
threshed, upon which to base their
reports. The accuracy of the reports
cannot, therefore, be gainsaid. for
they represent a compilation of actual
threshing results. In this connection.
it might be mentioned that the De-
partment is organizing a system of
growing crop returns, which will be in
operation next summer. The infor-
nation thus obtained, with estimated
acreage, will be available for business
men, banks, railway companies, and
other interests which have to discount
the future in making provision for the
conduct of their business.
The crop reports already to hand
show some remarkable cases of alb
normal development. In the Regina
district. many returns are given of
crops of wheat running from 40 to As
bushels to the acre.
J. A. Smell, of Yorkton, threshed
$4,000 bushels of oats from $50 acres,
an average of GO bushels per acre for
large acreage.
W. R. Motherwell, of Abernethy,
threshed 1850 bushels of wheat from
a so acre field, an average of SO bush
els per acre.
In the Edmonton district, T. T.
Hutchings threshed 72S bushels of
wheat from a ten-acre plot, an average
of nearly 73 bushels per acre.
S. Norman threshed $3.50 bushels of
oats from 60 acres of land, an average
of 116 bushels per acre.
The publication of the actual yields
of grain threshed will likely open the
eyes of the people to the great capabil-
titles of the western Canadian prairies.

MOST people think that catarrh is a
IVA disease confined to the head and
nose. Nothing is farther from
the truth. 1t may be that the nose and
throat are the oftenest affected by Ca
tarrh, but if this is SO it is so only be-
cause these parts are more exposed to
the vicissitudes of the climate than the
other parts of the body.
Every organ, every duct, every cavity
of the human body is liable to catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend on ca
tarrh. This is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many cases of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the
slightest suspicion that catarrh has any
thing to do with it.

experience of Mr. A. c. Lockhart is a

Yesterdays match opening the
Bloomington series came very near
being an even break all around, and
it was rather u matter of luck than
ball playing that the locals broke one
ahead on the score board. Each side
got seven hits and two errors. Each
side let down for an inning, Rock
Island getting two runs thereby and
Bloomington one. The work of the
pitchers was even, although Tor
renee had the best of it in that he
gave no passes.
The chastened spirit that BLOOM
ington manifests is in marked con-
trast to Bloomington of old. Brown
