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.

of the past year were what was ex-
pected, and the prices for grain of all
kinds. put the farmers in a class by
themselves. Many of them are indie
pendent, and many others have got
well started on the road. The latest
reports are that seeding is well under
way in almost every district, and the
prospects are that a vastly larger area
than that under crop last year win
be seeded early this spring In the

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 i'm 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 VIII
be market for II, because II 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 II is worth
talking about. II 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 II 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 II 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-
aole people who wonder why the
growth of one year In not continued
during the next. and at an even faster
rate. These same unreasonable peo.
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.

protects just such persons. so we
could not compel him TO move. Well,
