What Are Swapping Turtles?

Nature and Science for Young
Folks, an immensely popular depart
ment in st. Nicholas, is just what its
title indicates In 1t are gathered
many items Of interest about the
earth and its inhabitants. as well as
the inhabitants of water and air. The
writer of description of swapping
turtles concludes with the following
paragraph:
Considered from a scientific stand
point, the turtle Is of some interest.
for. although classed with the rep
tiles, he has many of the attributes
of other groups; thus he has shell
like the mollusks, legs like the mann
mails, lays eggs like the birds. can live
In the water or on the land like GER
tain amphibians, and hibernates In the
mud during the cold season as do
many Of the other cold-blooded crea-
lures. The fact that his flesh is edi-
BILE, however, and that turtle soup is
somewhat of delicacy, marks his
chief claim to distinction with many
of u.s."

BIG INCREASE OF
FARM PRODUCTS
Province of Alberta Shows In
crease of Over 20 Millions.

Figures just compiled by the public
ment show that last year, notwith-
standing that quite third of the pro-
vince was affected by the drought to
a very serious extent, the total value
of agricultural products actually pro-
duced in the province showed an in
crease of over twenty million dollars
over that of the previous year. AL
though southern Alberta had a bad
year agriculturally. the province as a
whole experienced period of great
prosperity, due principally to mixed
farming. which is becoming more gen.
eral with each succeeding year.
The value OF mixed farming, in fact,
was never better illustrated than last
year as the value of the animals
slaughtered and sold alone equaled
the value of the spring wheat crop.
without taking into consideration the
value Of the butter, milk, cheese. poul-
try, vegetables. and other by-products
of the farm.
Oats was the banner grain crop.
1.147,3S2 acres being seeded. and pro-
ducing 34,397,117 bushels, or 30.15 to
the acre. Sold at an average Of soc
per bushel, these yielded a revenue of
S17,19S,55S. Comparatively little win
ter wheat was produced, the yield be-
ing little short Of one million BUSH
els, but the spring wheat crop
amounted to 15,102,0S3 bushels, the
yield per acre being 1926. AT an aver
age of $135 per bushel, the value of
the spring wheat crop was therefore
S20,3S7,S12. The total production of
barley was 7,S47, $40 bushels, which, at
55c per bushel, yielded a revenue Of
$4,316,202.
Other productions were as follows:
Flax. 207,115 bushels, S310,672.00; rye,
261, 843 bushels, $196,392.O0; speltz, Az
7O7 bushels, 100000; hay. 100000
tons, $2,500,000 potatoes, four million
bushels. 100000; turnips, three mil
lion bushels, S750,000; carrots, 100000
bushels, $4,000; mangolds, $4,000
bushels, $4,000; animals slaughtered
and sold. S20,000,000; butter and
cheese, S1,5OO,OO0; milk. 100000;
wool clip, 100000 pounds, 100000;
fish. $195, 900; game and furs, $780,
900; horticultural products, S150,000;
poultry and products, s2,65O,OO0.
The total Of the agricultural prod
ucts Is given as S7S,516,S91, as com.
pared with SIS. ,0S4 in 1913.
The statistics also show that the
value of the live stock in the province
at the end of the year was $l10,044,-
$50, this being an increase of $7,762.-
S45 over the previous year. There
were 609,125 horses, 750,7S9 swine.

035 other cows. 190,923 beef cattle and
