MAsITOBA'S AGRICULTURAL
INDUSTRY
REMARKABLE DEVELOPMENT IN
THAT PROVINCE DURING THE
PAST FEW YEARS.

The past year MAS shown that the
Province OF Manitoba. the Premier
Province Of Western Canada. stands
out prominently in point Of wealth in
her agricultural productions, Mani
toba had an excellent yield of wheat
IN 1914 the oat crop was not SO good.
and with the high price received, every
farmer was placed in good financial
position.
For some years. as is probably the
case IN all new countries. Manitoba
went largely into the growing OF
grain, and while this paid well for a
time, It was found that having to pur-
chase his meat his milk and a mum
Der of other daily requisites, the farm
oiu not pay rs it should, Now. there
Is another side to 1t. Fodder crops
are grown. cattle are being raised
cheese factories and crea.neries are
established and the result is that the
financial position of the farmers Of
manitoba Is as strong as that OF those

lzed that the growing Of grains alone
has a precarious side. and that posi-

diversified farming. and securing the

ers IN the cultivation Of these grasses.
and the yields compare favorably
VITA those Of many older countries.
while in many cases they exceed them.
1t is worth while recording the acre
age Of these crops this season as com.
pared with last. because the figures re-
fleet the remarkable progress that is
being made in dairying and in the
beer and pork industry In 1913 bronze
grass was sown on 24,912 acres. rye
grass on 2l,917 acres. timothy on
lIS.7l2 acres, clover on 5.328 acres. al
falfa on 4,709 acres and fodder corn on
2o,223 acres. In 1914 the respective
acreage under those crops we're 25.444
acres. 27f00 acres. 165.990 acres. 7.2I2
acres. and 0,250 acres and 30.430 acres.
Alfalfa particularly is coming into it's
own. the acreage having been more
than doubled last year
it is simply the natural process az
evolution from the purely grain farm
ing which Manitoba knew as the only
method twenty years ago to the more
diversified forms OF agriculture that
is responsible for the development
along these other lines in this Prov.
ince. Alberta is coming to it at an
earlier stage than did Manitoba sas-

in the same direction.
Then, as her fodder crop and root
crop acreage indicate, there have been

24S,000 sheep number $4,000. as
against $1,000 and there are 1925. 600
horses, as compared with 800. 600 at

cms and all that sort of rot. Get Just
as far away from Ibsen and Howeus
and Henry James as you can possibly
get"
Here is a book that all the girls IN
the store say is very good, replied
the young woman. 1T is called 'Vir-
gie's Getrothal; or The Stranger at
Birchwood Manor. It's by Imogene
Sybil Beauclerc"
IF it's what it sounds TO be, it's Just
what want" said Payson, showing
his teeth at the young woman with q
devilish glee. you say the girls here
In the store like it?'
YES; Miss Simmons, in the hand
kerchief-box department, says it's just
grand"
Hal All right, I'll take it."
He felt his happiness rising as he
went through the store The joy shone
in his face as he stood at the skate
counter
II have a brother who is forty-six
years old and rather fat" he said to
the salesman. Fl don't suppose he's
been on the ice in twenty-five years.
He wears a No shoe, Give me a
pair of skates for him"
A few minutes later he stood at the
silk counter
What are those things?" he asked,
pointing to some gayly colored silks
folded in boxes
Those are scarfs"
Well, if you've got one that has all
the eolors Of the rainbow in it. I'll take
it. I want one with lots of yellow and
red and green in it, want something
that you can hear across the street
You see, have a sister who prides
herself on her quiet taste Her cos
tunes are marked by what you call
'unobtrusiye elegance I think she'd
rather die than wear one OF those
things. so I want the biggest and
noisest one in the whole lot"
The girl didn't know what to make
of Mr.. Payson's strange remarks. but
she was too busy to be kept wonder
ing.
Mr. Payson's sisters husband is the
president of a church temperance So
ciety, so Mr. Payson bought him a
buckborn corkscrew.
There was one more present to buy.
Let me see" said Mr. Payson.
What is there that could be Of no
earthly use TO a girl of'six years old?"
Even as he spoke his eye fell on a
sign: Bargain sale Of neckwear.'
Il don't believe she would care for

He saw box Of eravats marked "25

Why are those so cheap" he asked.

of style
That's good 7 want eight of them
oh any eight viii do. want them

Without indicating the least eur
