CORN CAN BE GROWN
ON CANADIAN PRAlRlES

Manitoba IL 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 a field
OF corr in southern Manitoba on Sep
TENDER rs. The corn then was un.
touched by frost and It stood on an
average eight and nine feet In height.
The corr had developed into the
dough stage, and the crop would easily
exceed 90 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 II.
should not II receive the serious at.
tentiUn OF the western ag%riculturlst?
Corn is successfully grown in the
northern part OF Minnesota in simi.
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. II 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 w~intering cattle and espe.
clally dairy stock are to be grown.
why should not corn be one OF these
crops? In Ontario and In the United
States We find II 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 BIO retained on the same amount
OF land. besides considering It's 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, I've now we find scat.
tered fields OF corn In Alberta and

BROUGHT HER BACK TO LIFE
Remarkable Cure That Was Effected
by the Administrator ~ ~.

On his return to his native heath
n year or two ago. p. J. O'Keefe found
the neighborhood very much agitated,
Nellie, the Oldest woman In the parish,
was dying.
Her friends, arriving Mt her home,
found her lying back in her easy chair,
apparently about TO pass over the last
threshold. Nellie, being n good house
wife, carried a bunch OF keys at her
girdle and. thinking that she was now
gone, n OF the neighbors reached
under the folds OF her dress to find
the key that would unlock the closet
where her shroud was kept. As the
good woman was fumbling at the cir.
die she felt a sly pinch OF her hand
and knew BY that that there was still
"a spark OF life remaining.
Perhaps" she suggested, "a wee
drop Of brandy would revive her"
a teaspoonful OF brandy was ad.
m~inistered. but with only n Pickering
response. SO the friends departed sor-
rowfully. forgetting. however. 10 re.
move the bottle from her side. On
their return o few hours later they
discovered that the brandy had van.
ished and that Nellie had completely
recovered. She lived TO be more than
n hundred years old. But that"
says Mr.. O'Keefe. was the story OF
Nellie's dying"

HODGES At La HARPE.
Delivers Commencement Address
Commends Independent Voter.

LaHarpe, Kan, May 21.@That the old
partisanship of politicians is rapidly be-
ing driven out of American political af-
fairs as people come to realize that the
bigoted partisan in politics is in politics
for his own selfish interest is the belief
Of Governor Hodges.
The governor made the annual COM
mencement address to the La Harpe
high school Wednesday night and
urged the graduates to study state and
national affairs so they could vote for
the best interests of themselves and
the country rather than for the selfish
interests of the partisan politician. He
said in part:
Il would urge your studying state and
national affairs, study men, study poli-
tics and prepare yourselves for the bur-
den of state that must eventually fall
upon your shoulders Do not belong to
a political party because father did.
Conditions are changing. Party plat
forms and pledges were never held so
lightly.
The Independent voter is the purify
Ing element in politics. He is the anti
septic that cleanses parties Of corrupt
practices. He is the most potent force
in the state today. This growing body
Of men have been the great moral force
that has been shaping the destiny of the
nation by exercising their suffrage for
the betterment of the state, and unlike

There is considerable discussion of
the point in all beauty Journals today
and as near as we can CLEAN the opin-
ion is that the discarding of pore-clog-
ging powders has made for a decided
increase in beauty OF the American
woman's complexion.
A plain lotion is best for the COM
plexion because it protects the skin and
gives to 1t an indefinable charm and
elegance impossible with powder or
rouge. To prepare a perfect lotion at
home, dissolve ounces spurmax,
which you get from your druggist, in
n pint hot water or witch hazel and
add teaspoonfuls glycerine. The
spurmax lotion cannot be detected
when on and a single application lasts
an entire day. 1t blends SO nicely with
the skin that spotting or streaking is
impossible. This lotion Is splendid for
that shiny. oily appearance and other
complexion upsets. It will give to a
xough.. aged skin q smoothness and
youth-tint tAuly charming.-Adv.

COUNTY TO FURNISH LABORERS

county promised a meeting of farmers
held here, that the county would as
sumo the work and expense of getting
in the harvest hands needed to take
care of the record breaking wheat
crop.
Heretofore the work has been done
and the expense borne by individuals
and by taking up subscriptions among
the business men. The county attor-
ney is backing the board and inter-
prets an act passed in 1909 as giving
authority to appropriate funds to pre-
vent great loss of property, as we'll
as in cases where such loss has occur
red. His theory is that a large per-
centage of the wheat crop will be lost
if enough hands are not secured and
as the loss would be widespread
among the people of the county it is
an emergency in which the act ap-
plies.
