It must be admitted, however, that the bronze
variety Of turkey not only holds the post OF nonor
because of its size and its rich plumage but also'
In the estimation of many epicures, because OF Is
flavor as well. There Is no doubt that the size oi
the bronze variety-ts standard weight ranges
from 16 to SO pounds-is to be attributed to the
fact that the birds of this family originated from
a cross between the wild and the tame turkey
For that matter, the wild turkey OF North Amer
lea was the ancestor Of all our present-day 90
nestle turkeys, but the crosses winch nave
been made in the case Of the bronze variety nave
been particularly fortunate in inducing mammoth
size However one Of the officials Of the depart
ment of agriculture recently declared that the
bronze turkey had been developed TOO mucn IN
the direction Of size, and If he can convert the
turkey raisers to his way Of thinking we may
see some years hence era OF smaller bronze
turkeys of even finer flavor than those regarding
which such enthusiasm has been manifested py
lovers of the good things of life.
OF course the Wanted bronze variety Is not the
whole thing in turkeydom, for there are SIX otner

papers and at the conventions of poultry rasers

fatten in prime condition Such weather condi
tons also tighten the cares of the farmer VINO
does not devote his entire attention to turkeys
and who usually has so many other Responsible
ties that he is mighty glad when the turkeys can
shift for themselves-to say nothing of the bene-
Ht to his poc8stbook. These farmers and poui
try rasers, 1t may be added, are about the only
classes In national community who never
need give a thought to bird for the nome taple
on Thanksgiving. There is always some sort OF
turkey for the gathering round the festive board
at the homestead. We may digress for moment
too to add that in late years there has come
great change In sentiment on the part OF many
of the farmers to the Thanksgiving turkeys
for their own tables. In days gone by there
was often disposition to regard almost any OLD
gobbler as sufficient for the home folks. All the
choice birds were sent to market because they
would bring the best prices. and the farmer and
his household not infrequently had to put up
with the leavings as It WERE Latterly. however
as greater prosperity has come to SO many OF
the farmers there is growing disposition to re-
gard the best none too good for the kings OF
the SOIL and this applies to turkeys as to every
thing else. Consequently 1t is usual for the
progressive farmer to retain one Of his tenderest
birds for the kith and kin that break bread with
him on Thanksgiving, and not infrequently the
chosen bird has been singled out from the others
long in advance and is specially fattened In &C
| cordance with the tastes Of the family.
There has been much discussion on the part Oh
the public In recent years regarding the compare
tive scarcity of small turkeys-that is six to eight
pound birds-in the Thanksgiving market There
is no difficulty in fixing the responsibility for this
disappearance of the small turkeys. 1t is due to
the growing tendency among turkey raisers to
devote their best efforts to the bronze" variety
of fowl-the largest variety of the bird. The
lure Of the American love of bigness has made
itself felt in the turkey realm, and the 80 to SO
pound birds which have attracted much atten-
ton at fashionable hotels and on banquet boards
have come to be regarded the most desirable
specimens Of that fowl which becomes for one
day each year our national bird.

Canada at the
Chicago Land Show
WILL MAKE A MAGNIFICENT EN
HlBIT OF GRAINS AND
GRASSES, VEGETABLES
AND FRUIT.

A carload of grain in straw, grasses
and other Of the products of Western
Canada arrived at Chicago the other
day. and is now installed in the
Coliseum, where the United States
land and irrigation exposition is under
way. Those who are interested In
the Back to the land movement Will
find in the Canadian exhibit one OF
the best displays of the agricultural
products of Western Canada that has
ever been made. There are repre-
sentative, men there, who will be
pleased to give the fullest information
regarding the country
The exhibit shows what can be
done on the free grant lands of that
country and most Of the grain was
produced on the farms of former resi-
dents of the United States who have
taken advantage of the homestead
lands of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta.
The vegetable exhibit will attract
q great deal of attention, and some
marvellous potatoes, carrots, turnips,
cabbage and caulifower are shown.
It is true that the homestead area
is being rapidly taken up and the
bulk of that now to be had lies north
of the Saskatchewan river in por-
ton of the country known as the park
country. Here there Is a large guam
tity of open prairie interspersed by
beautiful groves of poplar and willow.
Water is in abundance, hay Is plenti-
full and consequently fodder for ami
mails is right at hand. Those who
have taken advantage of farming In
these districts and watched the efforts
of those in the prairie proper feel
that they have the advantage of their
brother, who is not able to secure fuel
and the other conveniences of the
park district on his own farm.
The crop conditions throughout
Western Canada the past year have
been generally good, and some won
derful crop yields of wheat, oats and
barley are recorded. The Canadian
Government, under whose auspices
the exhibit spoken of is being made,
is preparing reports on crops in the
different Western Canada districts,
and while these will not be ready for
distribution at the land show COM
mencing on the 18th Of November
and closing on Dec. 9Th, application
