Western Canada As
A Grain Producer
NEVER SAW SUCH FINE WHEAT
ANYWHERE.

Gust. Anderson of Maidstone, Sask,
was formerly of Minnesota and has
been in Central Canada three years.
On January 16, 1910, he writes:
ARRIVING fifteen miles from Maid
stone, I bought couple of steers from
rancher, as my capital was not
large, and with the two oxen brought
with me, broke Is acres which l put
in crop in 1908 and had to clear some
brush. I earned $4,000 by breaking
fifteen acres for a neighbor and dur.
ing the summer I put up hay and
hauled timber and put up houses for
other settlers. Notwithstanding a
heavy frost on August 18th, had 22A
bushels of wheat per acre and 60
bushels of oats. Off IS acres of wheat
in 1909, I got q bushels of wheat
per acre and 1900 bushels of oats off
20 acres. I never saw such fine wheat
anywhere. We have plenty Of rain
between May and August and after
August seldom any but dry warm
days. Water can be had at from 20
to 40 feet and plenty of grass for cat
tle."
The evidence of Mr.. Anderson is
given because it is encouraging to the
man of small means who is DESTROYS
of lettering his condition. 1t shows
what can be done, and there is really
but small limit to the man. with push
and energy to become wealthy on
Canadian lands. And the grain that
he raises is good. A press dispatch
says:
The quality Of the wheat continues
to be the feature Of the deliveries. II
the total of 1878 cars in the February
inspections there were 2,847 of high
grade stuff, percentage of S4.28. Fol
January the percentage was 1921, anc
for the six months it was 88.6. This
is an unusually high average, and Il
demonstrates beyond the shadow OF
doubt that the farmers in this par
Of the Dominion still know how tt
grow first.class wheat. The crop O.
1908 was considered good enough, ant
it's average of contract wheat was
only 70 per cent. Good weathe
throughout the season was an impor
tant factor, of course, in insuring thu
high quality of the grain, and it is no
likely that atmospheric influences o
so favorable a character will be en-
countered for a long time to come
The best that can be expected is tina
a fair average for a term Of year
will be maintained.

prison world. Perhaps this is why
they have given me the sacred name
of Little Mother" and why l have,
since then, always called them my
"boys," and why, also, in the new
prisons to which go I find always a
loving and loyal welcome, even among
the many l have never met before,
who have heard from others of my at
tltude towards them and who believe
can understand that which concerns
them.

into that which l have learned from

have to read the hundreds and thou
sands of letters have received. They
would have to be listeners at the hun
dreds of personal interviews with in
dividuals of the prison world, and
they would have to trace back their
lives by visits to mothers and wives.
Above all, they would have to watch
them month after month, year after
year, and see the valiant effort and
steadfast endurance of the many who
have determined to make good against
almost overwhelming trials and diff
ficulties. Then they would have al
so to travel with me in countless long
Journeys throughout the country and

the disaster last month to the
two passenger trains which
cost nearly a hundred lives,
would have been averted. Be-
sides, with the tracks unpro-
