Never Touched IL.

There was little target practice
in town Thursday Deputy Sheriff
Jones bet Cousin Jack Kitchens that
he (Jones) could put three bullets ont
of five into coyote at distance OF
200 yards with a Colts So calber re-
volver. A sheet of paper cut in the
figure of coyote was tackled on the
Knapp mill, 200 yards measured off
and S25 deposited with the stake
holder, Alfalfa Hays of Pumpkin
Holler.
In the morning Jones went out to
practice and put six out of eleven
bullets in the right place. But after
the ground was measured he found
that he had been shooting 100 instead
of 200 yards. However, he took his
position (on his belly in the SANDY.
The first shot struck about half way
between the shooter and the target.
The next went about 40 feet further.
The next perforated the atmosphere
near the north star, the fourth hit
the mill about two feet north of the
coyotes nose, and the last went some
place. So Cousin Jack won the $25
and took all hands down to Johnny
Mack's and stood that gentleman off
for the liquor.

because of the extensive private hold

trict for wheat growing, 1t Is not good
for mixed operations as well 1t is be-
cause it is level, has sufficient rain
fall every year, plenty of snow in the
winter for moisture in the early spring
and favorable climatic conditions the
year round that it is specially marked for
this branch of husbandry.
In this part of the country wheat is
king, and here it is raised in the great
est possible perfection by combination
of soil and climate in it's favor. and the
tendency has been to neglect the more
laborious branches of husbandry for
which the country is equally well
adapted.
AS if to cope with the offerings of ma
ture, the railway companies are ready
with their railways to haul the grain as
soon as it is relieved from the straw in
the fields by the threshers. Throughout
this entire belt there is an enormous
length of railway mileage, branches are
radiating in every direction from the
trunks until they scarcely leave a grain
field more than six or seven miles from
a road, and they are all required, for in
the fall and early winter the sight of the
trains passing to and from the elevators
at the railway depots makes the entire
country look like one hive of industry.

VI COuTS6 du 6ACeptlOUdl expenditure
as when it is once done it is done
for all time. This costs about $3.50
per acre. After the breaking, plow-
ing and seeding, harvesting, threshing
and marketing, all expenses combined
amount to about $5.25 per acre; that
is, if man has everything done it
will cost him $5.25 per acre. If he
does the work himself he is earning
wages while producing at that fig
ure. Now as the average yield is 20
bushels, and the average price so cents
SIP per acre-the difference between
the result and cost, $6.75, is the profit
of grain growing year in and year
out in the great wheat belt of TIE
Canadian prairie country. If a man
has a half section of land and puts
half of it, 100 acres, under wheat,
which is very common occurrence,
he makes $1,080 on wheat alone and
should make if ne is a capable farm
er enough out of ether crops, sale Of
cattle, dairy and other products TO
keep himself and family the year
round besides.
The Third Division
The third division Of this great
country lies to the north of the wheat
belt, between it and what is known
as the forest county. AS wheat
growing implies the raising of all
cereals, that can profitably be raised
in the country, the remaining
branches of mixed farming are dairy
ing and the raising of farm stock
1t must not be supposed that dividing
the prairies in this way is saying that
any one portion of the country pos
sesses better soil than another, for
such is not the case-all districts are
equally fertile, but the topography
and climatic influences differ, as well
as the conditions for production.
Ranching and grain growing are car
ried on quite successfully in this
northern zone; but it is found more
profitable to combine all the features
of the industry. On account of the
land being more broken than in tho
southern district, though the soil is
equally fertile, there are not the same
opportunities for extensive operations;
and while cattle raising is as profitable
here as elsewhere, different methods
have to be adopted for their protec-
ton, especially in the winter season.
An authority On the subject has
stated that agriculture in any coun-
try never reaches the minimum of
development until the farmers engage
at least proportionately in dairying,
though the surroundings must always
determine the extent to which any
feature of the industry may be prose-
cuted. 1t is certainly then that if
the agricultural possibilities of this
portion of the prairie country be esti-
mated by its adaptability to dairy
farming even the most skeptical must
acknowledge they are unsurpassed in
any country in the world. AS inti-
mated above, even dairying may be
successfully carried on in any corner
of the territories, but this zone has
everything to recommend it as the
ideal spot for this branch OF the busi-
ness.
The mining districts Of British
Columbia. which consume an immense
lot of dairy products, are close at
hand and always afford good mar
ket for butter, cheese. pork. poultry
and eggs.
