! greet benefit to mankind at large
Thought is the food of the soul. I re-
member when old Sam Porsey was
dyin'. don't suppose there was a
poorer man in the neighborhood. But
some of the shallow minded used to
reproach him for his happiness. They
said he was thoughtless. But the fact
is that he had more of the right sort
OF thought than any man for miles
around. He worked hard, made liv-
in and didn't grumble. That was
thought to be some sort of mental dis
ease-the fact that he didn't com.
plain; and joker told him he'd better
take somethin' for it. He did. He took
| things as he found them and tried to
make them better and more cheerful.
Well, when he was lynn on his death
bed one of the neighbors asked him if
there was anything he particularly re-

EXCELLENT TRADE in
WESTERN CANADA
SPLENDID CROPS, BIG PRICES,
AND PROSPEROUS OUTLOOK
FOR THE FUTURE.

Throughout all of Canada, and espe.
cially in the Western Provinces of
Canada, there is buoyancy in every
line of business that is fully war.
ranted by every condition. The crops
| of the past year were what was ex.
pected, and the prices for grain of all
kinds, put the farmers in class by
themselves. Many of them are indie.
pendent, and many others have got
we'll started on the road. The latest
reports are that seeding is we'll under
way in almost every district, and the
prospects are that vastly larger area
than that under crop last year will
be seeded early this spring In the
Lethbridge district, in Southern AL.
berta, steam and gasoline outfits, hun
dreds OF them, are breaking up the
prairie at tremendous pace, but
they work night and day. AS soon as
it becomes dark, gangs are changed,
a head light attached, and on, on
through the night until the first
streak Of dawn, these giant monsters
with their seven or eight gangs of
breaking plows, keep up the work.
Then the more modest farmer is put
ting in the longest hours possible with
his teams of horses or oxen And
what will the Country be like in Au-
gust, when these fields have become
yellowed with the literally golden
grain. There will be one vast ex.
panse of wheat field. And there Will
be a market for it, because it is the
best grain grown, and the demand
will be everywhere. AS previously in
timated business throughout Western
Canada is sound and good. The grain
production of 1909 has been the great
factor in establishing the reputation
of Western Canada, and it is worth
talking about. 1t surpassed all previ-
GUS records, both in regard to quality
and quantity, and such an achieve
ment was by no means easy. The
limit has not been reached, and a
large average increase may be ex-
pected during the next ten years.
There will be odd seasons when a
falling-off will occur, and it is the fall
ing-off that causes alarms and panics
in the commercial world. The plains
have done their duty so far in the
output of grain and it would be rea-
sonable to make occasional allowances
for slowing-up. The faster the rate OF
increase is now, the sharper will be
the check when the production dimin.
ishes. But there are some unreason-
able people who wonder why the
growth of one year is not continued
during the next, and at an even faster
rate. These same unreasonable PEG.
pie are the ones who see flaws in the
situation as soon as an indication is
given that the startling advances have
| not been maintained.
