GERMANY AND CANADIAN
WHEAT.
Looks to the Canadien West Eor Her
supply.

Supply.
A dispatch from Winnipeg, Mani
toba, dated March 18, 1910, says that
Germany is anxious to secure a share
of Canadian wheat to supply her i'm
ports of that cereal" The recent ad-
justment of the trade relations with
Germany has made it possible to carry
on a Canadian-German trade with
much fewer restrictions than in the
past, and considerable development of
trade between the two countries is
now certain. The great men of the
United States are alive to the wheat
situation in this country now, and
there rs consequently the deepest in
terest I'm every feature that will tend
to increase and conserve the wheat
supply With its present $50, 000,0
bushei production of wheat and all
efforts to increase it almost unavail-
ing, and the rapidly growing cconsump-
ton Of its increasing population, there
is certainly the greatest reason for
the anxiety as to where the wheat is
to come from that will feed the ma
as Germany is to look to the wheat
fields of Canada One province alone
raised last year one-eighth as much
as the entire production of the United
States, and but twelfth of the wheat
area has yet been touched. The Amer
leans who nave gone to Canada, are to-
day reaping the benefit of the demand
for Canadian wheat and they will con-
tinue to join in the benefits thus
reached for great many years. Splen-
did yields are reported from the farms
of that country, and from land that
the Government gives away in 100
acre blocks, and from other lands that
have been purchased at from $12 to
SIS an acre. John Munter, near Eye
brow, Saskatchewan, former resi-
dent of Minnesota, says:
Last fall got over 80 bushels of
wheat to the acre and had 80 acres of
it; also 20 acres spring breaking On
which had flax of which I got almost
20 bushels per acre. Had 20 acres in
oats and got 70 bushels per acre, and
500 bushels potatoes on one and three
quarter acres, and can therefore safely
say that l had a fine crop and am
well satisfied with my homestead"
He is considered but a small farmer,
but he will be one of the big farmers,
some of these days. There are many
others, hundreds of others, whose
yields were beyond this, and whose
average under crop was vastly greater.
The story of the experience of Ameri-
can farmers in the Canadian West is
long one. The time to go, would
appear to be now, when splendid selec-
lions may be made, and where land
can be purchased at prices that will
be doubled in couple of years.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an intlamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed. Deafness is the result. and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing win be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

Afted devoting two hours to the rail-
road bill the Senate Thursday laid
aside that measure until Monday The
only amendment adopted was one pro-
nihiting the Interstate Commerce Com
mission from exercising jurisdiction
over routes which are entirely by wa
ter. The Senate passed the Warren
bill authorizing the government to dis
pose of surplus irrigation water The
President was requested by the House
to send to Congress any facts in his
possession which might make inadvis-
able any investigation of the sugar
trust frauds, unless in his Judgment
such action might be incompatible
with the interests of the public SER
vice. A speech by Mr.. Rainey of ILL
nois, dealing with the sugar trust and
charging that Attorney General Wick
ersham and Henry w. Taft, brother of
the President, had certain legal con-
nections with the trust, attracted con-
siderable attention. Representative
Mann concluded his opening speech on
the railroad bill and Mr.. Adamson, of
Georgia, senior minority member of
the committee on interstate and for
eign commerce, spoke in opposition to
the measure.
