HIS FIRST YEAR AT FARA...y
IN SASKATCHEWAN
Win Premiums and Prizes in
Competition With the
World.

There are thousands of young men
filling positions in stores and Offices,
and in professional occupations
throughout the United States, who in
their earlier life, worked on the farm.
The allurements of city life were at
tractive, until they faced the stern
reality. These people would have
done better had they remained on the
farm Many Of them, convinced OF
this, are now getting back to the
land" and in the experience, no bet
ter place offers nor better opportunity
afforded, than that existing in Western
Canada. Many OF them have taken
advantage of it, and there are to be
found today, hundreds Of such, farm
ing in the Provinces of Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and Alberta. The con-
ditions that surround farming opera
tions today are so much superior to
those in existence during their early
farming days, that there is an attrac-
ton about it. Improved machinery,
level and open plains, no rocks to
shun, no trees to cut down, but wide
stretches with mile-long burrows, ele-
vators to handle the grain, railways to
carry it to market. and bring almost
to their doors the things necessary to
operate. Splendid grazing areas. ex-
cellent opportunities for raising cattle.
These things are all so different from
what they once were that there is rea-
son to speak of the attractions. R. II.

prizes at the International Dry Farm

his first year farming. Up to 1918 he
was an engineer and the only knowl-
edge he had of farming was that OBJ

very useful; in fact 1t was valuable

Explaining TeIepathy,

There are numerous well authenti-
Gated cases ON record in which per.

peared as phantoms to persons who
were dear to them at the moment OF
death. The emotion which person
who is conscious suffers at the mo-
ment when violent death is offered
him in the form OF murder or acct
dent, beggars every other emotion.
Science, proceeding on the lines indi-
Gated above. hopes to unravel the
mystery attaching to telepathy, by
showing how the electric currents OF
the air. when impinged upon by the
electric currents of the body at mO-
ment of supreme emotional excitation,
will transmit that shock over miles

receiving instrument in the form of an
other human electric current, aLtuned

has not yet explained.
