Dear Sir:
1t Is with pleasure that reply to
your request. Some years ago took
up a homestead for myself and also
one for my son. The half section
which we own is situated between
Rouleau and Drinkwater, adjoining
the Moose Jaw creek. is a low level
and heavy land. We put in 10 acres OF
wheat in stubble, which went 20 bush
els to the acre, and 80 acres OF sum
mer fallow, which went 20 bushels to
the acre. All the wheat we harvested
this year Is No hard. That means
tHt JUDI "hthL NLdA tail W lhtS'u va
theearth. We didnot sell any wheat yet
as we intend to keep one part for
our own seed and sell the other part
to people who want first-cass seed,
for there is no doubt II you sow good
wheat you will harvest good wheat.
We also threshed 5000 bushels Of
frst.class oats out of 100 acres. so
acres has been fall blowing which
yielded 90 bushels per acre, and so
acres stubbe, which 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
II.
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had late spring and that the
weather conditions this year were
very adverse and unfavorablc, We will
make more money out of our crop
this year than last.
For myself ! feel compelled to say
that Western Canada crops cannot be
checked. even by unusual conditions.
am dear sir.
Yours truly.
