WHAT WESTERN CANADA DOES.
Satisfactory Yields of Wheat and
Good Prices.

Dundurn, Sask., Sept. 80, 1906.
Mr.. w. H. Rogers, Canadian Govern
ment Agent,
indianapolis, Ind.
My Dear Sir:
When you were at our place in July
/ promised to write you what my
north quarter made per acre. You
will remember it was all sown to wheat.
Well, l finished threshing yesterday
and received from it an average of
43N bushels per acre-testing 641a
pounds per stroked bushel The wheat
is the best sample l have ever raised
SO uniform and even in size. You
may know it was good sample when
l tell you that / have already sold 2 900
bushels of it for seed to my neighbors.
This year has been my best effort in
farming during my life. Ny wheat
totaled $3.50 bushels and my oats
nearly 5000
If you remember pointed out to
you half section lying just west of
our house and joining my upper quar-
ter on the south, which / said l should
have in order to make one of the best
farms in western Canada. / am very
glad to be able to tell you that | now
own that half section. My ambition
now is to be able to market 10000
bushels of wheat next year. If some
of those good, honest Hoosiers could
have been with me during the last two
weeks and could have seen the golden
grain rushing down the spout into my
| wagon and then could have seen it in
great piles in my granaries, feel sure
| they would have been forced to
| acknowledge there is no better farm
| ing country in the world than this. /
may just say that have done all my
farming with eight head of horses and
one hired man except during harvest
| and threshing. This year / proved to
my neighbor that the Hoosiers, when
once woke up" can raise grain equal
| to the best Minnesota farmers. His
best yield was 421a bushels per acre,
so you see ''old Indiana" is holding the
ribbon this year.
Yours very truly,

PREPARE THIS YOURSELF.
Tells How to Make the Best Blood
Tonic at Home.

For those who have any form of
blood disorders; who want new, rich
blood and plenty of it, try this:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Shake well in bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime Any good pharmacy can
supply the ingredients at small cost.
This is the prescription which, when
made up, is called 'The Vegetable
Treatment" by others, the Cyclone
Blood Purifier" 1t acts gently and
certainly does wonders for some peo-
pie who are sick1y, weak and out of
sorts, and is known to relieve serious,
long-standing cases of rheumatism
and chronic backache quickly.
Make some up and try it.

TIMELY FRUIT TOPICS.

In selecting varieties for family use
have a succession from early to late.
In this way you can have apples the
year round.
Never plant a peach tree over one
year from the bud but good strong
healthy stock to feet high with
clean bark and clean roots free from
root gals.
l prefer to plant one-year-old apple
and pear trees when can get strong
4 to feet whips. Such trees have a
strong robust habit, strong individu-
atty and are the very cream of the
nursery.-Dr. ]. H. Funk, Berks Co.,
Pa.
When picking over potatoes or ap-
pies save the small ones or those
partially decayed for the hens. We
think it pays better than to feed them
out to the cows. Boil and mix with
the mash or throw few raw ones
into each pen in the middle of the
day.
The winter peach blight which has
been serious for several years in parts
Of California is caused by a fungus.
it attacks the buds in late winter and
early spring. Spraying with bordeaux
mixture four to six weeks before
growths start in the spring is usually
effective.

CARE OF TREES.
The Relation of Pruning to Fruit Pro
duction.

Pruning so as to maintain balance
between fruit production and wood
growth is of vital Importance to the
fruit grower, because upon such bal
ance success or failure depends. In
nature the trees come into close con-
tact with other trees and struggle
for existence between them results,
the stronger ones crowding out the
weaker. In cultivation, this struggle
for existence between trees is elm
mated, and they are given an oppor-
tunity to develop without much COM
petition. 1t is obvious that under
such conditions, the natural tenden-
cies and functions of the trees are
often thrown out Of harmony.
If the soil is very fertile, or espe-
cially rich in nitrogen, the wood pro-
ducing functions tend to crowd out
the fruit-producing functions, or, if
the soil is poor, fruit production is en-
couraged at the expense of wood pro.
duction, and the vitality is affected.
This may result in premature death.
Often under conditions such as these,
intelligent pruning may correct the
diffeTence.-Prof. e. P. Sansten.

The Garden Beet.

The red garden beet may be grown
in any good soil, but rich, sandy loan
viii give the best results. Sow the
seeds in the spring as soon as danger
of frost has passed. Beets should be
planted in drills II to is inches apart,
and when the plants are we'll up they
should be thinned to or 5 inches in
the row. If desirable to plant n rows
three feet apart for horse cultivation,
says Orange Judd Farmer, the seeds
may be sown in double drill
with six inches between, leaving so
inches for cultivation. Two ounces
of beet seed are required to plant 100
feet of row, or five pounds to the acre.

How to Sleep in Blanket.

There are a great many very com
petent treatises telling you how to
build your fire, pitch your tent and all
the rest of it. / have never seen des-
clibed the woodman's method of using
a blanket, however. Lie fiat on your
back. Spread the blanket over you.
Now raise your legs rigid from the
hips, the blanket, of course, draping
over them. In two swift motions tuck
first one edge under your legs from
right to left, then the second edge un'
der from left to right, and over the
first edge. Lower your legs, wrap
up your shoulders and go to sleep. II
you roll over one edge will unwind
but the other will tighten.-Stewart

Proof of Merit.

The proof of the merits of plaster
is the cures it effects, and the volun-
tary testimonials of those who have
used Allcock's Plasters during the
past sixty years is unimpeachable
evidence of their superiority and
should convince the most skeptical.
Self-praise is no recommendation, but
certificates from those who have used
them are.
Allcock's are the original and gen.
uine porous plasters and have never
been equaled by those who have
sought to trade upon their reputation
by making plasters with holes in
them. Avoid substitutes as you would
counterfeit money.

Something About these Enemies Of
the Gardener.

Cutworms are not properly worms
at all, but the caterpillars of certain
small night-fying moths, which lay
their eggs in masses or strips on the
twigs of trees, says Montreal Herald.
The minute larvae, or caterpillars,
Matched from these eggs descend into
the soil and remain there during the
day, and in most cases spend the
winter there, and are ready to attack
early vegetation. They are very
voracious, and work only at night,
cutting the plants off at the level Of
the ground and destroying far more

than they can eat. They attack wheat,
Indian corn, oats and all the cereals,
as we'll as garden vegetables. Some
kinds of cutworms ascend trees by
night and cut off tender leaves and
buds, descending and hiding in the
early morning. BY day they hide I'M
der the surface of the soil, where each
patch Of whitening vegetation marks
their hiding places. In vegetable beds
these spots should be dug over and
the upturned worms killed; holes
made with hoe or rake handle fur
nish favorite hiding-places by day,
and thus serve as traps to catch
many a worm.
There are a great number of kinds.
and some of the worst are introduced
species from Europe. One of the
most widely distributed and destruc-
tive is the spotted cutworm shown

While clambering up noticed what
looked like the hulk of ship, about
400 yards away, says a writer in the
London Field. 1t turned out to be a
monster crocodile; it must, without
exaggeration, have been 27 or % feet
long, and in its close vicinity were five
or six small muggers, looking like a
bodyguard. I was afterward told by
an old Cawnpore resident that they
actually act as such, and give warn.
ing of any approaching danger to their
overload.
