TO KEEP THE SKIN CLEAR

For more than generation, Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment have
done more for pimples, blackheads
and other unsightly conditions of the
complexion, red, rough, chapped
hands, dandruff, itching, scaly scalps,
and dry, thin and falling hair than any
other method. They do even more for
skin-tortured and disfigured infants
and children. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold by druggists
and dealers throughout the world, a
liberal sample of each, with 32-page
book on the care Of the skin and hair
will be sent post-free, on application
to "Cuticura," Dept. L, Boston.

SURELY HARD MAN TO PLEASE
Artist Did His Best, but Somehow
Managing Editor Would Not
Be Satisfied.

An artist was drawing a cartoon
wherein the flag OF our nation played
a large part. He drew the flag, first
time, with five stars in the blue field
and took 1t to the managing editor,
who promptly let out yelp.
''Wadye think this country is" said
the managing editor, "a trust?"
Whats the trouble?" asked the art
list.
Trouble" beloved the managing
editor, why, we need more stars,
stars, stars!"
So the artist brought the picture
back and this time he had III stars in
it by actual count.
The managing editor felt his head
and choked slightly.
What do you think you're draw
ing?" he asked at last.
You're the hardest man to please
ever met in my life," said the artist
Indignantly; FIRST it's too few and
then it's too many. How many stars
do you want, anyway"

COST OF GRAIN
GROWING IN
CENTRAL CANADA

A careful canvass made OF q num-
ber OF men farming in large way
indicates that even with the extreme
expense of harvesting the crop. which
has been caused by the bad weather
and difficulty in threshing, wheat has
been produced and put on the market
for less than SO cents a bushel. The
average freight rate is not over 13
cents per bushel. This would make
the cost of production and freight 6S
cents and would leave the farmer an
actual margin on his low-grade wheat
of 17h cents and for his high-grade
wheat of 1914 cents; and though this
is not as large a profit as the farmer
has every right to expect, it is profit
not to be despised, and which should
leave a very fair amount OF money to
his credit when all the expenses of
the year have been paid, unless the
value of low-grade wheat sinks very
much below it's present level. A mat
ter of importance to the prospective
settler is that of the cost of produc-
ton. The following table has been
prepared after careful investigation:
Interest on 800 acres, value
$50 per acre, 8 years at 6
per cent interest. ......... 81 10000
Interest on horses, machin-
cry, wagons, ploughs, har-
rows, etc., to operate 320
acres--say $4,000 for 3
years ........ 450.00
Getting 800 acres ready for
crop first year, doing ones
own work, with hired help,
about $3.50 per acre. ...... 10000
Getting 800 acres ready for
crop, second and third
year, about $1.25 per acre
per year, or $3.50 per acre
years ones own work and
hired help............... 10000
Seed per year, wheat, per
acre $1.25, 3 years. ....... 10000
Seeding, 800 acres, 20 cents
