THE GROWTH Or
WESTERN CANADA
Increase in Railway Mileage,
School Attendance and
Population.

Some idea of the extent of railway
construction in Western Canada can
be derived from the fact that the rail-
way mileage in the Province OF Al
berta has been doubled in three. years.
The present mileage is 4,097- In all
Of the settled districts there is ample
railway privileges. The rates are gov
erned by Dominion Railway Commits
sion, and in the exercise of their pow
ers they not only control the rates,
giving fair equality to both railway
and shipper, but form a court to hear
complaints OF any who may desire to
lodge the same.
In the matter of education no better
instance of the advancement that Is
taking place can be given than that
found in the information to hand that
attendance at the University of AL
berta has increased 1000 per cent in
FIVE years, and is now thoroughly rep
resentative of all settled portions OF
the Province. The students in attend
ance are from sixty-one distinct dis
tricts.
Then as to the prosperity which fol-
lows residence in Western Canada, j.
b. Edward OF Blackie, Alta, gives
splendid testimony. He writes, In
the spring of 1907 first came to this
locality from the State of Iowa, Cass
County, and located on quarter sec
ton of land near Blackie. Since COM
ing here have been engaged in mixed
farming, which / have found to be
more profitable than where ] formerly
lived. On coming here my worldly
holdings we're small besides having a
family to care for l now own three
quarter sections, sixty head of cattle,
twenty head of horses and forty head
OF hogs, without encumbrance.
During the seven years have not

averaged ninety bushels per acre, with
general yield of thirty-fve bushels
and upward. My best wheat crop aver

FASTING IS PLAYERS HOBBY
Keeps in Condition-Takes Good
Care of His Health.

AL Bridwell, with the st. Louis Fed
eral league team, is one of the best
preserved men in baseball. AL is past
thirty-one years Of age and is still
spry enough to forbid his being re-
placed by a younger man. In his day
he has led all shortstops as a fielder
and he retains still a large part of
the wonderful ability which made him
famous when with the New York
Giants. Not only is he covering Sec
ond for Manager Jones this year, but
in all probability he will be seen in
the same position for the next few
years to come.
Bridwell is clean liver. He takes
particularly good care of his health.
One popularity he resorts to in keep
ing himself in the best of condition is
fasting. He never eats lunch and his
meals in the morning and evening are
very light ones.
At the time he was playing semi
professional ball he went for five days
in stretch without bite to eat. The
only nourishment he took during this
and other periods Of fast was water.
Some years ago, in the winter time, AL
went for full week without food. He
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1915-06-17

has gone this length of time on two
separate occasions, and during this
time he was putting in ten hours a
day for six days week, working over
machine in a shoe factory.
When have played my last game
of baseball, I am going to continue
with athletics just as industriously and
regularly as l have for years past"
says Bridwell. Il will take up hand
ball, boxing and bag punching and by
this means | hope to keep in good
physical condition as long as l am
alive and kicking"

When President James F. Gaifney of
the Braves refused to allow his club to
pay fines of $50 and $25 imposed by
President Tener on Gowdy and Tyler
for abusing an umpire he set a new

National league in his endeavor to
make baseball as clean as possible.
And it is next to impossible to have
decent sport when club presidents
wink at their players capers on the
field by paying all fines imposed on
them.
Sometimes when fines are paid by
the clubs the money is deducted from
the players salary, but many clubs
conveniently forget to subtract the
fine money on pay day. This has
practically given players license to
set up their own rules of conduct on
the ball field.
