THANKSGIVING 4

CanAda,s Day OF Thanks q Month
Earlier than In the UniteA states.
For some reason, better known: to
the Canadiann themselves than to the
people on this side Of the line, our
Canadian cousins celebrated their
Thanksgiving q month or more Bal

Canadian turkey had become impa-

reasons for giving thanks 10 much ear

selves so hard and . fast that the
Canadians were ashamed to postpone

and good ones. too. for giving thanks.

Saskatchewan and Alberta, have the

in the line of production give ample
reason for deyout thanksgiving to
Providence. This year has surpassed
all others in 30 far as the total In
crease In the country's wealth is con-
cerned. There is no question that
Providence was especially generous.

so, for with a demand for labor that

greatest danger, but with suitable

There have been low general averages,

that farmers were Indifferent, relying

many farmers have realized sufficient
from this years crop to pay the entire
cost of their farms. The Toronto
Globe says:
The whole population OF the West
