The New Northwest.

A Manitoba correspondent paints
glowing picture in Orange Judd Farm
er Of the new northwest as a wheat
held.n Hesays: = .,.s' .at h.is5. ut5
/ This year, as, never. before, the eyes
of American farmers have been turned
toward the northwest Manitoba has
for two seasons Had wheat yi,1ds un-
approached In volume and quality in
any other new country, and this one
fact has already drawn thousands of
American farmers across the boundary,
a large proportion of them going hun
dreds of miles farther west and north.
The farther west you go the possible
limits Of Wheat cultivation broaden out
more to the north. Most people are
aware that for hundreds of miles along
the eastern side, Of the Rockies there
extends one of the very finest stock
ranching countries on this continent.
Very few are aware that from Great
Falls, In Montana, up to Fort Vermil-
ion, on, the Peace river, In .5SM north
latitude, wheat of as good quality and
of as choice, quality can be grown as
that of the famed Red River of the
North valley. In SO vast an extent of
country there are naturally great differ
ences Of soil and varieties III other con-
ditions, but the area well adapted for
wheat production covers millions of
acres.
Wheat is the grain upon which in all
ages the masters Of the world have
been fed. and nowhere can it be grown
In greater perfection and at so low a
cost Of production as in the spring
wheat states Of the United States and
In western Canada. OF the extent Of
this northwestern wheatfield very few
people on this continent have any idea.
From the southeast corner of Minne-
sofa west to Great Falls, Mont, tie
writer has visited successful growers
of spring wheat. On the Canadian side
1t begins about hundred miles north
Of Winnipeg and stretches in a north
westerly direction for 1900 miles into
region popularity assumed to produce
nothing but icebergs.
Let us glance for q moment at the
present actual production of the very
limited proportion Of this great wheat
field now under cultivation. This years
wheat crop of Minnesota and the two
Dakotas was 18O,OOO,OOO bushels, and
the total yield on the Canadian side
was 65,O0OO0O. The present outlook is
that in ten years enough wheat will be
raised within the same area to bring I'D
the united yield to 6,5OO,O00.O00 BUSH
els. Every year new ground is being
broken south of the line. and on the Ca
madam side there will be many thou
sands of new settlers, comprising thou
sands of American farmers of the very
best quality as pioneers. 1t is probable
that 100 miles wide OH each side of the
Canadian Pacific railroad will in the
long run be found the most valuable
part of the northwest for wheat pro-
duction. South of the line the Red rig-
er valley is a gigantic wheatfield AID

Upon this page are depicted some OF; the
clever tricks that a skilful chauffeur can

these is driving an auto out upon the
ends of the narrow piers running out into
the river on the Canadian side Of Belle
Isle. near eDtroit. "A Detroit chauffeur

of cilauffeurs, he slowly. guided the ma
chine out upon the pier. Barely an inch
of leeway was left on each side, and the
slightest tremor of his hand would have
sent both his machine and himself into the
river. Foot by foot he worked his way
out to the end of the pier, then reversed
and started on his journey backward. If
the trip out had been perilous and
wearing, the return was doubly so.

curacy of eye. Soon after Mr. MAXWELL
introduced it, Chicago chauffeur took
it. up, and since then. it has been done
by skillful drivers from one end of the
country to the other. The trick Is to run
a heavy machine off scurbing upon the

cracking the crystal At a. first glance
this feat seems absolutely impossible. AS
a matter Of fact, it is as difficult as era ok
ing a hickory nut without crushing it
with a steam hammer weighing tons In
the one instance the man controlling the
hammer can: make its descent upon the
nut so slow as to be almost imperceptible,
at the same time having the advantage
of being within a few inches of the OBJ
