WAS DR.. COOK DELuDED HIM
SELF?

Whether or not DR.. Cook ever reach
ed the north pole is question upon
which tne civilized world has had
honest differences OF opinion from the
time Of the announc ement of his claim
there can, it seems, be NJ final diff
ference on the question of the genu-
ineness of the explorers own belief
that he had been there. Every COM
petent observer who met him person
ally has maintained that he is quite
incapable, morally or Intellectually,
Of concocting a colossal scheme to
hocus the entire world. Throughout
the whole affair there Is no evidence
Of any plan TO impose upon the Gre
duIity of mankind 1t seems probable
that Dr. Cook actually attained a very
high northern latitude, perhaps came
within a shorter distance of the north
pole than he will ever be credited for
1t is sincerely regretted that he did
not, upon his return to civilization,
frankly state his actual achievement.
This was probably in itself notewor
thy enough to entitle him to honor
and financial return, sufficient, per-
haEs, to compensate him for the pri-
zraf "A + J. hot
his lonely Imprisonment during the
six months Arctic night after his
return from his farthest north affect
ed his memory ard judgment
Throughout the whole discussion the
attitude and conduct of the Univer-
sity of Copenhagen and the Danish
people have been worthy of sincere
respect and admiration. They ac-
cepted with dignifed enthusiasm and
at it's face value the claim of an AM
erican explorer against whose record
they had no suspicion. All through
the trying period Of discussion, SO
often bitter and unfair, they maintain
ed the dignified reserve that properly
characterizes all sincere and honest
folk while awaiting a edcision. But
when the necessary evidence was not
produced they did not permit their de-
sire or their preceding action to pre-
vent a decision in strict accord with
scientific truth

WESTEN CANADIANS
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. bought a couple of steers from
rancher, as my capital was not
large, and with the two oxen brought
with me, broke 20 acres which put
in crop in 1908 and had to clear some
brush. earned $500 by breaking
fifteen acres for a neighbor and dur.
ing the summer | put up hay and
hauled timber and put up houses for
other settlers. Notwithstanding
heavy frost on August 18th, had 22ls
bushels Of wheat per acre and 60
bushels of oats. OF 35 acres of wheat
in 1909. l got 81 bushels of wheat
per acre and 1900 bushels of oats off
20 acres. 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 II 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. In
the total of 3,37S cars in the February
inspections there were 2,S47 of high
grade stuff, percentage OF S4,2S. For
January the percentage was 1921, and
for the six months II was $50. This
is an unusually high average, and II
demonstrates beyond the shadow OF a
doubt that the farmers in this part
Of the Dominion still know how to
grow first.class wheat The crop OF
1908 was considered good enough, and
its average of contract wheat was
only 70 Per cent. Good weather
throughout the season was an impor.
tant factor, of courge, in insuring the
high quality Of the grain, and 1t is not
likely that atmospheric influences OF
80 favorable a character will be en-
countered for long time to come
The best that can be expected Is that
fair average for a term Of years
will be maintained.
