ed a letter to each member of the
church urging that An effort be
made to round up Methodists who
have moved into the city and who

SOUTH TEXANS TURN
TO ONION GROWING;
Doubled Acreage Likely ~ Result OF
High Prices Last Season.

High Prices Last Season.
Austin, Texas, Oct 2.-The pes
known as thripp caused the Bermu
da onoin growers of South Texai
losses aggregating 100000 last sea
son, according to statement just Is
sued by the Texas department OF ag-
riculture. notwithstanding the losses
the profits were enormous, averag-
ing about 1926 per acre.
Planting onion seeds In beds will
take place next month, and the trans
planting into the fields will begin
the latter part of November. II snf-
ficient quantity of seed can be OBJ
tanned, the acreage next season will
be greatly increased, perhaps more
than doubled.
Nearly all of the Bermuda onion
seed for the Texas growers comes
from the Teneriff Islands, and. for
some unexplained cause, difficulty
has been experienced in obtaining
sufficient seed from that source for
next seasons planting.
The South Texas Truck Growers
Association. which handles the bulk
OF the Bermuda onion crop of this
state, obtains It's seed supply through
Roy Campbell, its general sales man
ager. Mr.. Campbell has been visitil.;
the Teneriff Islands about once a
year, contracting in person for a suf-
ficient quantity Of seed to meet the
needs OF the members OF the assoei-
alton.
Much of the prospective non
acreage is in the lower Rio Grande
Valley, in the vicinity of Mission,
Mere edes, McAllen, Harrington ana
San Benito. The acreage around Lar
edo, Cotulla and Garlic Springs will
be but little larger than last season,
1t is stated.

CANADA'S IMMENSE
WHEAT FIELDS
THE ATTRACTION FOR THREE
TRANScoNTINENTAL RAIL.
WAYS.

Last August there visited the Cana
dian west the vice-president Of tho
largest individual hardware company
in the United States. As his firm have
turnover Of millions. and deals ex-
tensively with farm implements, this
man took q deep interest In crop con-
dittons in Canada, and on his return
he embodied his findings in an article
fer the Hardware Reporter. This ar
tlcle should be of special interest to
farmers.
The writer speaks Of the importance
OF the spring wheat crop Of Western
Canada. He might also have spoken
OF the Importance Of the oat crop and
also of the winter wheat crop, as we'll
as barley. Winter wheat during the
past few years has been great sue
cess, and experiments have shown
that it can be grown with success in
almost any portion of the three prov
inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta. But apart from this, the
spring wheat crop is the one generally
grown, and all who know anything Of
grain, anyone who has had anything
to do with markets, knows or has
heard of the high character of this
cereal and the splendid yields that are
annually produced. Reproducing from
this article:-
In land Of such great sweep, and
Of such difference in soil and climate,
there are many resources, but none
are at present of the same overwhelm-
ing Importance as the spring wheat
crop. In the interminable prairie
stretches of the northwest provinces
it is the one absorbing topic Of inter-
est and of conversation during its
growing and it's harvesting. for upon
it's success or failure hangs the veal
or woe of large part Of the Domin-
ion. It's influence extends far down
into the United States, drawing thou
sands of farmers northwards with the
lure Of cheap lands, but likewise be-
yond the great lakes, even to the easy
going maritime provinces, calling the
flower of their young men to its OPP
portunities. Development in these
prairie provinces goes on at high pres
sure for everything hangs on the out
come of spring wheat. Success has
emboldened the raisers of this one all
important crop, and each year there
is further incursion into those north
ern fields that only short time ago
were regarded as Arctic wastes. The
Canadian Northwest seems to be one
of those modern agricultural examples
set forth to drive the final nail in the
coffin of that ancient Malthusian de-
fusion that population tends to outrun
the means of subsistence, since the
only fear now among Canadian econ
omists is as to the danger of over
stocking the wheat market. Only
about two and one-half per cent of
possible arabic lands in the northwest
provinces is now under cultivation,
and this year the crop promises to
be close to 20o,00O,OOO bushels, SO
that your imagination and your arith-
metic can easily supply the answer as
to the possible or even probable out
come"
During the months Of July and Au
gust the weather was unfavourable
and the production of 200 million
yield of wheat will not likely be real
lied, but even with this, the threshine
reports coming to hand show that the
crop will be splendidly paying one
