For a moment. she only nodded; but
her eyes were bent on the road ahead

added whimsically-"will be to make

But, just before they drew up at the

TAKES ISSUE WITH EDISON
Here 10 One Man Who Does Not Be-
ileve the World VIII Give
Up Sleep.

Mr.. Edison says sleep Is a bad habit,
and that We shall some day get over
II. Like drinking and smoking. II Is
to be among those things which we
shall try in time TO give up on the first
OF the year. lie says people called him
crazy when he said electricity would
supplant all other motive power In
transportation. and n therefore hesi'
tates to say that he Is crazy about
anything. However, W will hazard a
guess that II he is OF his box any.
where. II is with respect to the pleas
ant custom OF indulging ourselves In q
good sound snooze. How else we are
to refresh ourselves from the days
work we cannot imagine. The trouble
with this objection, as It applies to
Mr.. Edison. Is that he doesn't think we
are wearled by the days work. He
and some OF his associates worked at
something for a given period OF time
81 hours a day, and they all gained
weight! lie leads us TO infer that II 10
what We do when we are not working
that wearies US. Thinking over II
briefly. we believe there Is something
In that. Probably half the things we
do In our leisure time Is very hard

immense QUANTITY
OF WHEAT TIED UP
There viii Still, However, Be a
Heavy Deficit Of the Worlds
Normal Crop.

A grain expert who has been watch
Ing the grain markets and the worlds
grain fields for a number OF years.
says
There Ia at the present time about
two billion bushels OF wheat, the pro-
duction OF the countries ut war, tied
up. This is about one.half the world's
total production OF wheat. which Is
four billion bushels. One writer ar.
CUES that. granting that the warning
nations produce n one-half crop In
the coming year. a deficit OF one bill
lion bushels will still be shown. The
three countries upon which the filing
OF this deficit of one billion bushels
will rest are the United States, Can
ada. and Argentina. The combined
output OF these three countries is only
1.2i9, 900, 900, their e%xportable surplus
would OF course be much less. SO IL
can easily be seen that the question
is not one TO be easily solved and Il
behooves all the above countries to
increase their respective productions
as much as they possibly can. for
when the war Is owe and trade begins
10 r%e.establish itself and the nations
undergo a process OF rehabilitation,
the demand for all breadstuffs will be
enormous.
During the three years following
the declaration OF peace the farmers
OF all neutral wheat.producing coun-
tries will have ample opportunity to
market their wheat at good prices.
and II may safely be assumed that the
demand will be heavy. Canada has
an unusual opportunity in that she
has the natural environment for wheat
production; she Is under the protec-
tion OF the British flag. and she will
not be molested upon the water to
any great extent; she can increase
her acreage and greatly enhance her
production. In other words. she can
become n far greater wheat-producing
country than she Is at the present
time"
II the s%umming.up as made by this ex.
pert be correct, is there not the very
best reason for the continued effort
that Is being made by the Government
OF the Dominion OF Canada to secure
settlers on the productive vacant
lands OF the country? Not only are
these lands capable OF producing high
class wheat in large quantities. but
cattle, pigs. sheep and horses also do
well. The climate Is admirably suited.

her at the door. while Samson and
Horton stood back, waiting. Suddenly,
Miss Lescott halted and regarded the
newcomer In surprise, II was the
same girl she had seen. yet a different
girl. Her hair no longer fell In tangled
masses. Her feet were no longer bare.
Her dress. though simple, was charm

had dropped Its half.illiterate peculiari.
ties. though the voice still held Its
bird.like melody.
