CANADA WINS AGAIN
THE COLORADO SILVER TROPHY
FOR OATS WON A SECOND
TIME BY CANADA.

The most recent achievement of
Canada's West is winning for the sec
ond time the magnificent 81 500 silver
trophy awarded by the State of Colo
RADIO for the best peck of oats At
Columbus, Ohio, in 1911, J. c. Hill &
Sons of Lloydminster, Saskatchewan,
placed a peck of oats grown on their
farm in competition, with oats from
every part of the world. The judges
had no difficulty in deciding. and the
award was given to the Saskatchewan
grown oats. In 1912, the Corn Expo
sition had no exhibition, and our Ca
madam friends, although ready for a
second contest had no opportunity.
In 1913, the exhibition of the Society
was held at Columbus, S. c., and it is
said of it that it was one of the best
yet held. At this exhibition, which
comprised corn and all the smaller
grains, Hill & Sons of Lloydminster
had on exhibition for the contest an
other peck of oats grown on their
Saskatchewan farm, in 1912. There
was no trouble for the judges, no time
necessarily lost in reaching decision,
Hill & Sons won, and for the second
time their name will appear on the
crest of the cup. The third space will
doubtless be occupied by their name,
and then this splendid trophy viii be
theirs.
During the past few years Western
Canada grains-wheat, oats, barley and
fax-have been in competition with
grains from all other countries, and in
every case their superiority has been
shown. 1t is not only in oats, but it
is in wheat, in barley and in fax, that
Canada more than holds its own, when
placed side by side with grains from
other parts.
Mixed farming is taking a strong
hold not only in those parts of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
which up to the present have been de-
voted solely to grain growing, but also
IN the districts contiguous, where the
conditions of climate, shelter, water,
grass and hay make farming of this
kind, easy to prosecute and large in
profits. 1t was in the Province of
Manitoba that the steer was raised
that carried off the Championship of
the steer class, at Chicago last De
cember. This beast had been fattened
on the grass and hay of the Province
and the only finishing grain it had was
barley; not an ounce Of corn.
Western Canada presents innumer-
able opportunities for the big farmer
who wants to cultivate his thousands
of acres, the medium man satisfied
with a few hundred acres, the man
who is content to farm his free home
stead of one hundred and sixty acres
It has opportunities for the investor,
the capitalist, the business man, the
manufacturer and the 1aborer.
Agents of the Canadian Government
located at different points in the Unit
ed States will be pleased on applica-
ton, to give any desired information.
