WESTERN CANADA HAS. AN
. EXCELLENT CLIMATE.
The Saskatchewan Valley Very High
; ..--.
~ Favored.

An interesting feature Of Western
canada is its climate. Those who
nave made a study of it speak highly
OF it. The Canadian Government
Agents are sending out an Atlas, and
at the same time giving valuable in
formation concerning railway rates,
etc., to those interested in the country.
AS has been said, the climate is excel
lent. The elevation of this part of
Canada Is. about 1900 feet above the
sea, about twice that of the average for
Minnesota. It is very desirable alti-
tude. The country has very equable
climate, taking the seasons through.
The winters are bright and the sum-
mers are pleasantly warm. r. F. Stu
part, director of the meteorological
service for Canada, says:
THE salient features of the climate
"of the Canadian northwest territories
ARE a clear, bracing atmosphere dur
ing the greater part Of the year, and
a medium rainfall and snowfall. The
mean temperature for July at Winni-
peg is 66. and Prince Albert 81. The
former temperature is higher than at
"any part Of England. and the latter
lis very similar to that found in many
parts OF the southern countries"
At Prince Albert the average daily
maximum in July is rs and the mini
mum 4S. Owing to this high day tenn
perature with much sunshine, the crops
come to maturity quickly.
Moisture is ample in the Saskatche-
wan valley. being about 10 inches an
nually. 1t is notable that about rs per
cent. Of the moisture falls during the
crop months. Thus, Western Canada
gets as much moisture when it is need
ed and with several hours more sun
shine daily than land further south
gets during the growing season, it is
not difficult to understand why crops
mature quickly and yield bountifully.
Winter ends quickly, sowing is done
during April and sometimes in March.
Harvest comes in August, about the
middle. Cyclones, billiards., dust and
sand storms are unknown.

For Growing Girls.

West Pembroke, Me, March 2l.-Mrs.
a. Z. Smith, Of this place, says that
Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best remedy
for growing girls. Mrs. Smith emphasizes
her recommendation by the following ex-
perience: q - -.
MY daughter was thirteen years old
last November and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last a week and would
then pass off. In month she would have
the spells again. At these times she
would eat very little and was very yellow,
even the whites of her eyes would be yell
low.
'The doctors gave US no encouragement,
they all said they could-not help her.
After taking one box of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, she has not had one bad spell. Of
course, we continued the treatment un.
til she had used in all about dozen
boxes, and we still give them to her &C.
easionally, when she is not feeling well.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the best
medicine for growing girls"
Mothers should heed the advice of Mrs
Smith, for by SO doing they may save
their daughters much pain and sickness
them.

cording; afterward he is required
