THANKSGIVING DAY
Ca,sada's Day Of Thanks q Month Ear.
iier Than In the United States.

For some reason better known to
he Canadians themselves than to the
people on this side OF the line, our
Canadian cousins celebrated their
Thanksgiving month or more earlier
than we do. 1t may be that the Cana
dian turkey had become impatient, and
sounded a note of warning, or 1t may
be that the frost on the pumpkin de
olared itself. But whatever the reason,
their Thanksgiving day is past. 1t may
have been that the reasons for giving
thanks so much earlier than we do
were pushing themselves so hard and
so fast that the Canadians were
ashamed to postpone the event. They
have had reasons, and good ones, too,
tor giving thanks. Their great broad
areas of prairie land have yielded in
abundance, and here, by the way, 1t Is
not uninteresting to the TRENDS
the millions of Americans who have
made their home in Canada during the
past few years to know that they have
participated most generously in the
cutting of the melon" Probably the
western portion Of Canada, comprising
the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche.
wan and Alberta, have the greatest
reason of any of the provinces to ex'
press in the most enthusiastic manner
their gratitude. The results in the
line of production give ample reason
for devout thanksgiving to Providence.
This year has surpassed all others in
so far as the total increase in the coun-
try's wealth is concerned. There is no
question that Providence was espe'
cially generous. The weather condl-
tons were perfect, and during the
ripening and harvesting period, there
was nothing to interfere. And no" IL
was well it was so, for with a demand
for labor that could not be supplied,
there was the greatest danger, but
with suitable weather the garnering OF
the grain has been successfully accom-
niished There have been low gen
eral averages, but these are account
ed for by the fact that farmers were
Indifferent, relying altogether upon
what a good soil would do. There
will be no more low averages though,
for this year has shown what good
careful farming will do. 1t will pro-
duce 100 million bushels of wheat from
seven million acres, and 1t will pro
duce splendid lot of oats, yielding
anywhere from so to 100 bushels per
acre This on land that has cost but
from $40 to SIS per acre-many farm
ers 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
rejoices in the bounty of Providence,
and sends out message of gratitude
and appreciation Of the favors which
| have been bestowed on the country.
! The cheerfulness which has abounded
with industry during the past six
months has not obliterated the concep-
ton of the source from which the
! blessings have flown, and the good
/ feeling is combined with a spirit Of
/ thankfulness for the privilege of living
in SO fruitful land The misfortunes
/ of the past are practically forgotten,
/ because there is great cause to con
