PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTlCURA REMEDIES

"Four years ago l had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched like
poison. would scratch those places

Our physician pronounced it dry

the doctor gave me, but it did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies. As this trouble has
been in our family for years. and is
considered hereditary, I felt anxious
to try to head it off. I got the Cuti-

they seemed to be just what l needed.

Canada arrived at Chicago the other

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 tho 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

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 large guam
tity of open prairie interspersed by
beautiful groves of poplar and willow.
Water is in abundance, hay 10 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,
