EIGHTEEN YEARS
 AGO HE HAD LESS
 THAN } DOLLARS
HE IS NOW ONE OF THE RICHEST FARMERS IN SASKATCHEWAN,
 CENTRAL CANADA.

Arriving in Canada in 1891, just eighteen years ago, E. A. Guillomin could speak but his native language. He is a Frenchman. He had but little over two dollars in his pocket, thus being short over seven dollars of the ten dollars required to secure en- try for a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres. He eventually bor- rowed the money and near Forget, Saskatchewan, he started life in Can ada on the homestead in which to-day he is the fortunate possessor of fifty quarter sections of land, or 5000 acres.
 Now MT. Guillomin did not acquire all these acres as a result altogether of his farming operations, which were extensive. He looked with satisfac- tion upon what he was doing on his limited area, he was saving, careful, and had foresight. Surrounding land could be had for about $500 per acre, and he continued buying as his saw ings would permit, until now he has fifty quarter sections, some of which he can sell at s25.0O per acre.
 Threshed Fifty Thousand Bushels.
 This year he was engaged in thresh- ing on his place for 54k days. He threshed out 50,000 bushels of wheat, of which he sold 34,000 bushels, one train load, at price varying from 84 to S7 cents per bushel. He has on hand still 16,000 bushels. In addition to wheat he raised 30,000 bushels of oats, 1000 bushels of barley and 500 bushels of flax. He owns 104 horses and a number of cattle, but since the construction of the railway he has been engaged chiefly in raising wheat. This year he bought his first thresh- ing machine, paying for it the sum of $2,100. He estimates that the ma chine earned for him this fall $3,000, thus paying for itself in one season and leaving s900 to the good. The weather was very propitious for farm threshing, not single day being lost in the two months which were spent in this work. The wheat averaged 23 bushels to the acre and graded No. 1 and No. ? Northern. In the past nine years seven good crops have been har- vested on this farm. For six success sive years the returns were excellent, that is in the years 1901, 1902, 1903, 1904, 1905 and 1906. In the two fol- lowing years there was a partial fail ure. As the years have passed the oquality of the buildings on the farm have been steadily improved, and are 1N> district. About $10.000 has been in- vested in this way by Mir Guillomin. The farm consists of 6,SS0 acres, of which about 6O0O acres were under crop this season.

SCRATCHED so SHE COULD
 NOT SLEEP

T write to tell you how thankful I am for the wonderful Cuticura Rem- edies. My little niece had eczema for live years and when her mother died l took care of the child It was all over her face and body, also on her head. She scratched so that she could not sleep nights. used Cuticura Soap to wash her with and then ap- piled Cuticura Ointment. I did not use quite half the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, together with Cuticura Re- solvent, when you could see change and they cured her nicely. Now she Is eleven years old and has never been bothered with eczema since. My friends think it is just great the way the baby was cured by Cuticura. send you a picture taken when she was about IS months old.
 She was taken with the eczema when two years old She was covered With big sores and her mother had all the best doctors and tried all kinds of salves and medicines without effect until we used Cuticura Remedies. Mrs. Ii. Kiernan. 663 Quincy St, Brooklyn, N. r., Sept. 27. 19O9."
