Writing from Moose Jaw, Saskatche-

II have much pleasure in saying
that on my farm this year had 500
acres in wheat, and 100 acres in oats.
My wheat averaged about % bushels
per acre, and had 200 acres cut be-
fore the frost, which sold at IS
cents per bushel, thus realizing on
that wheat $500 per acre, not count
ing cost of Irvine, seed and labor. With
regard to the other 800 acres of wheat.
1t got touched with frost but Is worth
so cents per bushel. 1t will net me
$500 per acre, but l do not intend
to sell it at that price, as I can make
more money by feeding 1t to hogs.
my oats turned out about so bushels
to the acre, and at 35 cents per bushel
will give me $500 to the acre. not
counting seed, Irvine and labor.
"On account of the late spring, Q
percentage of the grain was touched
with frost, but on account Of good
prices, farmers will realize fair
profit on their farms even this year.
We are as usual up against short

$4,000, 600 Compress Merger.

A New Orleans company. which
controls the Luce system of compress
ing cotton, and Little Rock concern
winch controls another system, will
be merged into a 100000 corpora
uon with headquarters in New Orleans
and then a campaign will be started
TO introduce the system into every
cotton gin in the south. The two
systems are somewhat similar, but
each had some advantage over the
other; and, by combining, 1t is claim
ed, the best of the two will be in
cluded in one device The new system
Will permit of 100 bales of cotton be-
ing placed on one car and this means
enormous saving in local and ocean
freights. 1t is claimed that this pro-
cess will solve the question which
seemed to be uppermost in the minds
OF the English spinners on their re-
cent visit to the souh-that of i'm
proper packing of the cotton. w. G.
Wllmot, of New Orleans, is now in
Chicago perfecting details of the new
corporation.
The Little Rock Company is the
Thomas Gin Compress Company. DR..
A. ID. Thomas, who lives at 1118 Cum
berland street, Little Rock, is the in
ventor of a machine to compress the
bales at the gin. Some time ago the
Luce company in New Orleans was
sued by the Little Rock company for
alleged infringements OF the Thomas
patents.
Recently overtures were made look
ing toward the consolidation of the
two companies, and the details of the
consolidation have been arranged, so
1t is stated by DR.. A. d. Thomas. The
new company will be known as the
Southern Gin Compress Company.
The consolidation OF the two inter
ests will not affect Little Rock. 1t
means simply that the new company
will use the patents of the Little
Rock company. The Thomas Gin
Compress Company will not be moved
from Little Rock Dr. Thomas con-
firmed the statement in the New Or
leans special to the effect that a cam
paign to place the compress in COM
mon use throughout the south will be
commenced at once.
