"WHERE THE WHEAT
COMES FROM. ;"
PHRASE THAT WILL SOON DE-
SCRIBE THE PRAIRIES OF
WESTERN CANADA.
IT SEEMS EASILY POSSIBLE FOR
THE NEW COUNTRY TO RAISE
A BILLION BUSHELS.

At the National Grain Dealers as
ISOLATION convention in Milwaukee
last week, Theodore M. Knappen, sec
rotary of the Western Canadian I'M
migration association, minneapolis,
read a paper on western Canada as
wheat producer, In which he predict
ed that the time Is approaching When
Canada will export and probably pro-
duce more wheat than the United
States. Mr.. Knappen said In part:
1.-THE development OF western can
ada as wheat producing country mas
been very rapid in recent years, so
rapid, indeed, that even American
grain dealers have not fully Appreciated
the growing Importance of that coun-
try as contributor to the WORLDS
supply of wheat. Seventeen years
ago, Manitoba produced less than
so late as 1900, which was very bad
crop year in the northwestern states
and western Canada, the total amount
Of wheat produced in western Can
ada did not exceed 20,OO0,O0O bushels
The production suddenly assembled to
about 6S,00O,OO0 bushels in 1902, and
though it fell off to about Do 10000
bushels last year, will probably be
nearer 100000 than 100000 this
year. This year the acreage soWn 10
wheat Is just about twice what It was
in 1900, being about 3,50O,000 acres
It is conceded that there is a vast
extent of country In western Canada
that Is as good for wheat raising as
that already under cultivation. rs
Inmates as to the precise extent OF the
spring wheat producing area vary.
The land area Of Manitoba, Assiniboia,
Alberta and Saskatchewan, which
comprise what is popularity known as
western Canada, is 252,000,000 acres.

Woousocket News: The Observing
editor ofEShe KIMBALL GRAPHIC. IN Il
ride across the state. notices that the
pastures are running out and turning
to weed patches. He deploreS the
fact and wants to know what will be
done about it. Here are a few remedi-
les. Pasture less cattle next year, and
in July nov the entire pasture; rake
the grass and weeds into windows.
This will kill out the weeds, will give
the grass a chance to grow for late
feed, and that which is cut will be
pretty we'll cleaned up by the cattle
after frost comes. The balance can
be hauled from the field. I have
tried this plan and found it a
success. The next plan is to pillow the
ground and cultivate it, first seeding
down a pasture Of old land. Timothy
and clover are doing finely in Roberts
counsy, and there are few places
where either that or alfalfa or bromus
would not do we'll. Almost anything
is better than a weed patch.
a neighbor tells me that it is gen.
orally agreed among farmers that a
bushel of corn, when feed to a thrifty
hog, will make ten pounds Of pork ION
the the hoof." So a farmer can feed
% cent corr and sell his hogs at So so
per hundred and come out even. Now
this neighbor wants to know how
much corn it will take to make ten
pounds of beef when fed to Il likely
sitter. There is authority for saying
that on an average it will take two
bushels of corn and some hay to make
ten pounds of beef when fed to steers
in the ordinary way. So, we may say,
with corn at % cents a bushel.a pound
of gain on a steer, will cost 5 cents.
AS that is about all the steer will sell
for per pound, there would appear to
be no gain, but the gam m from
two other sources. First, from hogs
following the cattle, and second, from
the fact that the thin steer or feeder
costs say q cents pound, after say
200 pounds more flesh is added, all the
weight of the steer is worth 5 cents a
pound. There will be good money in
feeding good steers this winter if one
is fixed for 1T.
