QUANTITY, QUALITY AND PRICE



Ing Western Canada Greater Inn
pulse than Ever This Year.
The reports from the grain fields OF
Central Canada (which comprises the
provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta) are TO hand The year
1909 has not only kept pace with
previous years in proving that this
portion of the continent is capable of
producing splendid yield of all the
| smaller grains, but ii has thoroughly
outstripped previous seasons. There
IS quantity, quality and price, and
from all parts OF an area OF about
100000 square miles there comes the
| strong refrain of contentment and
satisfaction. In the distribution OF
the conditions causing it no district
has been overlooked
Various estimates of the total yield
of wheat for the country have been
made, but it is not the vast total that
| influences the general reader so much
! as what has been done individually.
The grand total--say 130,000.000 bush
els-may have its effect on the grain
prices of the world; it may be inter-
esting to know that in the worlds
markets the wheat crop of Canada
has suddenly broken upon the trading
boards, and with the Argentine, and
in the making of prices. If so to-day,
what will be its effect five or ten years
from now, when, instead of there be
ing seven million acres under crop,
with total yield of 125 100000 or
139,000.000 bushels, there will be from
100000 to 30,000,C00 acres in wheat
with yield of from 325,000,000 to
600, 100000 bushels. When it is con-
sidered that the largest yield in the
United States but slightly exceeded
700.000,000 bushels, the greatness OF
these figures may be understood. Well,
such is a safe forecast, for Canada has
the lazd and it has the soil. Even to-
day the Province of Saskatchewan, one
of the three great wheat growing
provinces of Canada, with 100000
acres under wheat, produces nearly
90,000.000 bushels, or upwards of one
tenth of the greatest yield of the Unit
ed States. And Saskatchewan is yet
only in the beginning of its develop
ment. AS Lord Grey recently pointed
out in speaking on this very subject,
this years crop does not represent
one-tenth of the soil equally fertile
that is yet to be brought under the
plough.
individually, reports are to hand of
yields of twenty-five, thirty and thirty
five bushels to the acre. Scores of
yields are reported of forty and some
as high as sixty bushels. The farmer,
who taxes care of his soil, who gets
his seed-bed ready eaaIy = certain of
splendid crop.
The news of the magnificent crop
yield throughout the Canadian West
will be pleasing to the friends of the
thousands of Americans who are resi-
dents in that country and who are
vastly instrumental in the assistance
they are rendering to let the world
know its capabilities

badly dashed by the decision of the
committee of the University of Copen-

his graduation from the medical
school, at 2S, he signed as surgeon for
Peary's expedition of 1893. That was
his first experience as an arctic trav-

expedition to the antarctic and brought
back a series of magnetic observations,
and a profile of the bed of the sea
