MORE EXCELLENT
REPORTS FROM
WESTERN CANADA
Grains Are Heading Out
Rapidly and Harvest Is
Now Approaching With
a Great Demand for
Harvest Help.

Last week it was pointed out in
these columns that there would be q
yield Of about 200, 900, 900 bushels Of
wheat throughout Western Canada, an
increase of about 100 1000. 900 over the
previous year, and that the demand
for farm help was very great. Con-
frmation of this news is to hand and
the cry still is for more help. The
Canadian authorities are hopeful that
the friends of the 100000 or SOC, 900
Americans who have gone to Canada
during the last few years will come to
the help of these people and induce
as many able-bodied men as they pos
sfbly can to take advantage of the
low rate which is being offered from
all points on the Canadian Boundary,
and particulars of which can be had
from any of the following Agents of
the Canadian Government: M v. Nc

Every facility win be afforded men
of the right stamp to secure advantage
OF these low rates. To those who pro-
pose to go, it may be said that they
will have this splendid opportunity Of
securing first hand information as to
the excellent producing character of
the lands in Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. They will have the op-
portunity of seeing some of the great
est wheat fields in the world and prob
ably the largest yield of wheat, oats
and barley that has ever been grown
on the Continent. And all this on
land some of which cost the settler
only the $1,000 necessary to enter for
his homestead, or, if he purchased,
in some cases, costing him from $500
to $1,000 per acre, but which is now
worth from $500 20 $4,000 per acre.
Even at these prices the land is re-
markedly cheap as will be realized
when the statement is made that from
20 to 25 bushels per acre and over
of wheat are grown, netting the farm
er from $500 to $1,000 per acre; and
this on land that he got for nothing
or paid merely a nominal price. In
fact the production shows that $500
to $4,000 per acre would be a nominal
price for land that would produce as
these lands produce.

DISFIGURED WITH CRUSTS

Some time ago I was taken with
eczema from the top of my head to
my waist. 1t began with scales on my
J body. I suffered untold itching and
burning, and could not sleep. l was
greatly disfgured with scales and
crusts. My ears looked as If they had
been most cut OFF with a razor; and
my neck was perfectly raw. I suffered
untold agony and pain. I tried two
doctors who said I had eczema in its
fullest stage. and that it could not
be cured. I then tried other rem
edies to no avail. At last, I tried a set
OF the genuine Cuticura Remedies.
which cured me of eczema when all
else had failed, therefore I cannot
praise them too highly.

months, but am now entirely cured,

Willis Bailey Horned.

Lovers of the fox chase are quite nu-
mercus in Adair county. and it is a
common sight to see daily from three
to five hunters together upon the public
square, discussing the merits of their
respective dogs in the last run. There
is also a fraternal feeling existing in
the blossoms of all the hunters, and
when misfortune comes to a member of
the club, aid is at once given and words
of profoundest sorrow extended. AS
an evidence of this last statement, Mr..
Willis Bailey. who lives in the suburbs
of Columbia, ard who is an old hunter,
lost his residence by fire sometime ago,
~nearly everything in the building being
destroyed Willis did not grieve over
the losing of his home and household
goods. but his favorite fox horn. one
that he had used for many years, went
up in the flames, This was a great loss
and hard to recover from, but Mr.. E.
o. White, who was in Mexico, and
learning of his friends misfortune, fell
upon a plan to bring joy to Mr.. Bailey
heart. He secured a large Mexican
stear horn, sent it to France and had it
dressed, and when he reached Columbia
two weeks ago, he notified the hunters
that he had present for Willis Bailey
