STOLE TO GET NEW START
Bank Cashier Experiences overpower-
Ing Impulse to Get Some Place
and Start Ira Ans&. ...--.,.

A bank teller in a middle western
state grew weary Of the narrow, cir
cumscribed life in the town where he
lived; he wanted wider interests, a
new start in a new place, but start
with capital SO he could push him
helf ahead. He took $4,000 OF the
banks funds, jumped into his automo-
bile and started for Mexico (this was
before the present revolution across
the Rio Grande had reached such seri-
GUS proportions) across Kansas, Ok
lahoma and Texas. He expected to
make clean getaway by using a
motor car instead of taking train.
forgetting that an auto can be traced.
The surety company at once put an
inspector on his trail. and the man
was captured In Texas when he was
almost at Laredo, ready to cross the
border
OF the sum he stole. $4,000 was re-
covered in the actual wrappers in
which he had taken 1t from the bank.
The automobile was recovered and
sold, and the proceeds used to make
up for part of the money he had spent.
This cashier is now serving a long
sentence in prison merely because he
experienced an overpowering impulse
to go some place and start life anew.

CORN CAN BE GROWN
ON CANADIAN PRAIRIES

Manitoba is now commencing to
produce considerable corn, chiefly for
feeding purposes. In some cases,
where the crop can be matured into
the dough stage, silos could be used
and would be a profitable investment
According to the Farm and Ranch Re
view, a correspondent visited field
of corn in southern Manitoba on Sep
TENDER 28. The corn then was un-
touched by frost and 1t stood on an
average eight and nine feet in height.
The corn had developed into the
dough stage, and the crop would easily
exceed 20 tons to the acre. At many
experimental farms, the same favor
able showing of the corn crop has
manifested itself. At the Brandon ex-
perimental farm this year several va
rieties. all very good yielders, matured
into good silo corn.
Considering the success with which
corn can be produced, and the advan-
tages to be gained by so producing it,
should not 1t receive the serious at
tention of the western agriculturist?
Corn is successfully grown in the
northern part of Minnesota In SINH
lar soil and under the same climatic
condition, and there does not appear
TO be any reason why like results
should not be secured in western Can
ada. 1t is the opinion of many Ameri-
can farmers of experience that the
corn belt is extending northward. The
prairie provinces must gradually take
up with mixed farming. More stock
on the farms must be raised, and In
consequence farming must to some
extent be diverted from grain growing
to other necessary crops. II crops
suitable for wintering cattle and espe-
ciaily dairy stock are to be grown,
why should not corn be one of these
crops? In Ontario and in the United
States we find it forms the main bulky
food for wintering beef and dairy cat
tie. They would not be without this
profitable plant In fact. since its in
PRODUCTION almost twice as much stock
can be retained on the same amount
of land, besides considering its great
value for keeping the land clean.
Some may say that many crops that
can be grown in Ontario and the
States cannot be grown here. but not
so with corn, even now we find scat
tered fields of corn in Alberta and
Saskatchewan. --Advertisement.

equally strong WILL made the dugout
and settled there with his wife. His
name was Soren Sorensen. But they
worked early and late, and were bound
to succeed. One patch of new ground
after another was added to his little
farm. The ground was very rocky.
But he broke up the rocks with his
siedge hammer and sold 1t to the COM
munity for building public roads. on
and on he had to work for others to
get the necessary ready cash. In the
course of time he built a neat house
above the dugout, and what a time he
and his wife and two children had
when they could move into the new
house. Mr.. Sorensen has arranged his
farm SO that the dugout is in the CEN
ter of beautiful garden. 1t has been
slightly changed so as to make a
charming grotto. and no spot on the
farm receives greater attention Mr..
Sorensen has done so well that by this
time his farmer neighbors admit that
they may get pointers from him.
