ECZEMA ITcHED AND BURNED

scalp broke out with fine pimples at
the start. They itched and burned so
much that was compelled to scratch
them and they would tester and come
to head and break out again. The

My hair fell out gradually and the
scalp kept rough and dry with itching

WESTERN CANADA'S
NATURAL RESOURCES
PETROLEUM, NATURAL GAS, COAL
AND FARM LANDS.

The developments that have taken
place recently in the oil and gas fields
Of Western Canada have but added
another to the many previous evil
dences that have been produced,
showing the great wealth that has
been an unknown asset for so many
generations.
The latest reports from the oil
fields at Calgary show that there is a
production there that would appear
to equal the best paying fields on the
continent. Experts have been on the
ground for some time. 1t is said that
one of the wells is able to produce
1000 gallons an hour. If this is so
there are but about dozen wells in
the world of greater production. Dur
ing the past week discoveries of sur
face indications have been made which
show that oil exists over consider
able portion of Alberta and Saskatche-
wan, while in Manitoba there have al
so been showings. At Battleford,
Saskatchewan, few days ago discov-
cries were made which led to the fl
ing for leases on twenty thousand
acres of land, all having strong sur
face indications. Companies were
formed to carry ca immediate work,
and in couple of months, or probably
less, the story will be told whether oil
exists in paying quantities.
But there are also the coal deposits
and the natural gas deposits that are
helping to make of Western Canada
one of the wealthiest portions of the
continent.
With the grain fields covering these
hidden riches it is no wonder that a
continued range of optimism is to be
seen everywhere. Early reports Of
seeding of all grains being successful
ly completed all over the country are
followed by reports of excellent and
strong growth everywhere. During
the first week in June most of the
wheat had reached a growth of from
twelve to twenty inches, with the most
even appearance, almost universally,
that has been seen for years. Oats
appeared equally well, and covered the
ground in way that brought the
broadcast kind of a grin to overspread
the farmers countenance.
Barley, favorite with the hog rails
ers, had taken good root, and was
crowding oats for first place, as to
length Of shoot. Cultivated fodder
grasses are getting great attention.
as a consequence of the inclination to
go more largely into mixed farming,
and the raising of hogs, cattle and
horses. The weather Is reported fine.
just what is needed, and If present
favorable conditions continue, the
grain crop of Western Canada for 1914
will be the largest average in the his

The Way of PROGRESS.

A dog barking at passing automo-
bile is generally supposed to be as tell
ing symbol of futile objection to the
march Of progress as coald well be
imagined. In almost the same category,
however, belongs the strike of the
stevedores in New Orleans against the
introduction of the electric truck TO
transport freight between vessels and
warehouses. The wonder Is that this
improvement has been so long delayed
instead of only now appearing and
then as source of new labor diff
Guilty. One cannot have much SYM
pathy for opposition in this particular
instance. The motor vehicle in all Of
its forms has come to stay, and the
rest of the world has been rather rap
idly adjusting itself to the new condi'
mountaineering Record.

Ffve-year-old Herbert, scion of a

Makes Jobs for Detectives.

Probably the only people to benefit
by recent suffragette outrages are
private detectives, many of whom
are doing little else just now but
guarding pictures and other treasures
of well-known hosts and hostesses

London Globe states.
The head of one private detective
agency told me the other day, says

he had been obliged to engage a spe-
