And we gathered round to see him show

Well, the golfer stuck the spheeroid on

And Packsaddle swiped and swatted but
he didn't do no hurt;
He barked his shins terrific. and he broke
his little stick.
And when he heard a snicker. his guns
came out. too quick

from our American forests, he could pro-

IL will be seen that the number OF
acres sown to wheat, oats and barley
in 1898 was 429,749. and that this had
increased in 1904 to 1,5S7,337. The
total crop in the cereals mentioned
was 9,033,297 bushels in 1898. and in
1904 1t had grown to the magnificent
total of 35,413,522. In the year Just
closed the forward movement" In
the agriculture of the west has been
the wonder and envy of the world.
New sections of the country have
been placed under tribute to the plow
and harrow, and the grain area has
been largely increased. This is par
ticularly the case where 1t has been
demonstrated that Alberta Red" win
ter wheat may be successfully grown,
and along the lines of the new rail-
ways towards the centre of the coun.
try, where mixed farming prevails.
The future of the Canadian West
is assured, and for years to come 1t
is bound to be the land of promise to

WINTER WEAKNESS
Or. Williams Pink Pills the Tonic
That Most People Need for
Blood end Nerves.

In winter the air of the close rooms in
which we spend so much of the time
does not furnish enough oxygen to the
lungs to burn out the foul matter in the
blood. In the cold season we do not exer-
else as much and the skin and kidneys do
not throw off the waste matter as freely
as usual. The system becomes overloaded
with poisonous matter. and too feeble
to throw it OF. Relief can be had only
through the use of remedy that will
promptly and thoroughly purify and
strengthen the blood, and the one best
adapted for this purpose is the great
blood tonic known rs DR.. Williams Pink
Pills.
