SPRINGS FOR FARM WAGONS.
Big Saving In Comfort and Money e.
fected by Their Use.

A big saving in money and in com.
fort could be made by the universal
use Of springs on farm wagons. Per.
ishable products, like fruit. vegetables
and eggs, are greatly injured by be.
ing carried to market over rough
roads. The jolting and Earring from
springless wagons result in much in.
jury to the load. This is often so
great that buyers will cut the price
from one.fourth to one.third.
Peaches carried ten miles on q
springless wagon are often unfit to
ship when they arrive at the car. The
loss on this one crop alone Is very
heavy. Large peach growers and or
chardists know full well that their
fruit must be handled like eggs. SO
they use light wagons with flexible
springs, and draw a small load. Small
farmers and growers. with only an
acre or two, cannot afford orchard
wagons, but they would save enough
on each load to pay for good set
of bolster springs.
The use Of springs is also a great
comfort to the driver OF the load.
Furthermore. says Farm and Home.
they lengthen the life Of the wagon,
because they take up the jolts and the
jars. Even for drawing grain, hay, po-
tatoes and other farm crops they are
very useful. The load rides much bet
ter, is not so likely to shake off, and
the comfort to the driver. who must
spend a good share of his time on
the wagon, Is unreasonable.

80 BUSHELS OF OATS

WHAT Mr.. KALTENBRUNNER Has
TO SAY ABOUT HIS GRAIN
CROPS IN CENTRAL
CANADA.

Writing from Regina, Saskatche.

Some years ago I took up home
stead for myself. and also one for my
son. The half section which we own
adjoins the Moose Jaw Creek; 10 q
low, level and heavy land. We put
In 70 acres Of wheat In stubble which
went 20 bushels to the acre. and 80
acres of summer fallow, which went
20 bushels to the acre. All the wheat
we harvested this year Is Mol Hard.
That means the best wheat that can
be raised on the earth. We did not
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 class seed, for there is no doubt
II you sow good wheat you will har-
vest good wheat. We also threshed
5000 bushels OF first class oats out OF
100 acres. 80 acres has been fall
blowing, which yielded 90 bushels
per acre, and so acres stubble, which
went 30 bushels to the acre. These
oats are the best kind that can be
raised. We have shipped three car
loads OF them, and got 90 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 late spring, and that the
weather conditions this year were
very adverse and unfavorable, we will
make more money out OF our crop
this year than last.

that Western Canada crops cannot Be
checked, even by unusual conditions"
