It is not necessary to have ones

the amateur will remember q few sal
lent rules of table decoration.
Do not have clashing colors. They
jar on the eye like "calithumpian

harmony take into consideration the
color OF the room and Of ones prin-
cipal china; likewise. unless your
complexion is of the best, of your own

but should have a background OF
green in foliage or trailing vine. IN
combination do not try to be bizarre
and remember that all shades OF the
same color will not harmonize.
SEE Pink and lavender are charming TO-
gether, and far less commonplace
than blue or pink. Dark blue and pur-
pie and pale yellow are effective: SO.
oddly enough. are orange and scarlet
or scarlet sage and goldenrod.
Further consider the season OF tho
year. A vivid decoration that would
look we'll in the fall or winter would
be ugly in hot weather. Likewise con.
slider your color scheme for tho light

THE BANKS
+. Of CANADA

The closing Of tho year. 1912 has
brought out the usual bank statements
accompanied by the addresses Of the
Presidents and General Managers OF
these institutions. Their reading is
interesting as they show in q striking
manner the prosperity of the country.
and deal with economic matters in .
first hand way. Those who know any.
thing of Canadian banking methods
know the stability OF these institu-
tons, and the high character Of the
men who. are placed in charge. In
discussing tho land situation the Pres.
ident OF the Union Bank of Canada,
whose branches are to be found in oil
parts OF the Canadian West, said:-a
"A good deal has been said about
speculation in land. The increase in
land values has added enormously to
the assets Of Western business, and
has to some extent formed basis for
extended credit, but this is not felt to
be drawback when the value is real
and convertible. We consider that q
business standing which ia strength
ened and enhanced by property hold.
ings Is entitled to reasonable en-
largement Of credit for legitimate bust
ness operations"
It will thus be seen that the banks
recognize the certain rise in the value
OF farm lands in Western Canada.
When the facts are known OF the won.
derful producing qualities of farm
lands in the Provinces Of Manitoba.
Saskatchewan and Alberta; 1t Is sim
pie to understand the liberal stand
taken by the banks. 81,
Living not far from Lashburn, Sask..
is a farmer named Clarke who in 1912
secured q crop Of Marquis Wheat,
yielding 76 bushels per acre. This
is spoken Of Al . record yield. and this
ia doubtless true. but several cases
have been brought to notice where
yields almost Al large have been pro
duced, and in different parts of the
country. During the past year there
have been reported many yields OF
from IS to As bushels of wheat to the
acre. Oats. too. were q success
full crop. and SO was the barley
crop. Wheat that would yield 40
bushels per acre. would bring on the
market zoe "a fair igure) per bushel.
q gross return Of $500 per acre. Al
low $1,000 per acre Gan outside hgure)
there would be . balance Of $500 per
acre net profit. This figure should
satisfy anyone having land that cost
less than $4,000 per acre. Very much
less return than this proves satisfac-
tory to those holding lands in. Iowa
and Illinois worth from $3.50 to $500
per acre. . $s 539&
The latest Government returns give
an approximate estimate of four hum
dred thousand Of an immigration to
Canada during 1912. OF this number
200 900 will be from the United States.
Most OF these are of the farming class
and it is not difficult to understand
why farming lands in Canada will ad-
vance from ten to, twenty per cent.
