thAT Mr., kALTENRRUNNER HAS
TO SAY ABOUT HIS GRAIN
CROPS IN CENTRAL
CANADA.

Writing from Regina, Saskatche.
IAN, Central Canada, Mr.. A. Kalten-
krunner writes
Some years ago ! took up a home
ytead for myself, and also II for my
lon. The half section which we Own
&djoins the Moose Jaw Greek; is a
low, level and heavy land. We put
n 10 acres Of wheat in stubble which
went 20 bushels to the acre. and 80
heres Of summer fallow, which went
rs bushels to the acre. All the wheat
we harvested this G a is No. | Hard.
That means the best wheat that can
be raised on the earth. We did not
sell M wheat yet, as We intend to
keep u part for our own seed, and
sell the other part to people who want
first class seed, for there is no doubt
az you SOW good wheat you will har-
vest good wheat. We also threshed
1000 bushels Of first class oats cut Of
100 acres. 80 acres has been fall
blowing, which yielded 80 bushels
went 80 bushels to the acre. These
oats are the best kind that can be
raised. We have shipped three car
loads of them. and got SO cents per
bushel clear. All our grain was cut
In the last week of the month Of
August before any frost could touch it.
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had a late spring, and that the
weather conditions this ear were
very adverse and unfavorable. We will
make mor money out of our crop
this year than last.
For myself | feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked, wen by unusual conditions"

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's Ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days OF
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day car produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years IN
the study OF drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their pc
culiar ills, more potent and etfica-
cious than any combination ofdrugs.
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, Of 515 NC. St,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
Complete restoration to health
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women l am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years l had been suffer
ing with the worst formso of female ills.
During that time l had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times l
could hardly walk. About two years
ago I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
l followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia L. Pinkham's Vegetable CON-
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains Of gold to suffering
women
What Lydia F.. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.
