EXCELLENT FARMING
CONDITIONS IN CANADA
Letters from Settlers Indicating
Growing Prosperity.

The present year will add another
proof that farming in Western Canada.
when carried on with the same energy
and system devoted to other lines of
business, will bring about results fully
as satisfactory.
Mixed farming as tocsin has been
sounded for number of years. and
today it is being adopted pretty gem
orally throughout the Provinces of
Manitoba. Saskatchewan, and Alberta
There are those who have made no
greater success of it than they did
when they pursued grain growing
alone, but where one has failed to &C
complish what he had hoped to do,
dozens have scored success.
From Sedgewick, Alberta, we hear of
3. L. Deputy. for past twelve years
manager for Frye & Sons. packers.
Seattle, who during 1914 were the
largest buyers of hogs on Alberta
markets. He is taking up active work
on his 1,200-acre farm near Sedge-
wick. Although he was one of the
highest paid salaried officials on the
Pacific Coast, his frequent visits and
personal knowledge /of farming condi-
tions in Western Canada convinced
him there are greater opportunities in
farming Alberta land than in CONNER
cial life, with greater assurance OF
ultimate independence and prospects
of home-making under the most de-
sirable conditions.
Thomas Mckay, a farmer near Har-
disty, Alberta, has this to say about
the country:
Il came to Hardisty from Usage
City, Kansas, nine years ago and took
up homestead here. This is a good
district for the farmer who wishes to
raise grain exclusively, and as a mixed
farming country it cannot be beaten
anywhere in the world to my knowl-
edge.
Il had ten cattle, which ranged out
side all last winter, and this spring
they were fat enough for the market,
this without being fed but one night
during the entire winter; they were

Odd in trim, but exceptionally neat
and pleasing in appearance is this
beautiful five-room bungalow. The
size is ~ feet inches by 40 feet 6
inches on the ground, but it has an
overhang of nearly four feet.
1t is known and spoken of as the
prettiest bungalow in town, and the
owner admits that there may be some
truth in the statement.
The cobblestone porch abutments,
porch stair walls, piers and chimney

proposition and help to keep up inter-
est. The different parts of the house
are not made all in one mold as for
merly, but the general design is ad-
hered to, without repetition. In this
window scheme there are single win
dows, double windows, and one frame
holds five two-sash windows separated
only by the sash-weight boxes, but ev-
cry window in the house is bordered
around with the same plain white
casing.
There also is similarity in glaz-
ing, but it is difficult to find two win
dows that are exact duplicates of each
other. There is general combination
Of large lights in the lower sash and
small lights in the upper sash, but
they all fit into the perspective to
take their proper place in the COM
plete picture.
There is considerable width to the
front steps and the front walk. The
front door also belongs to the new
wide order of house building, which
means that broader ideas have pre-

vailed all through the house, from the
basement to the attic.
This bungalow is built with good
basement, having a ceiling feet 6
inches in height on purpose to &C
commodate a modern warm-air fur
mace that requires considerable head
room to work properly. We build a
basement and install a furnace in or
der to keep every room in the house
the same temperature all through the
day and evening. The windows are
always left open in a warm house, SO
that the air is pure and the children
are free from nasty colds.
The front parlor in this bungalow
is a grand room. It is "a by II feet
in size, with light on three sides, and
it is literally lighted, too
Such large windows interfere with
natures plan to keep house dark
and gloomy in the fall. They also
interfere with the placing of large
articles of furniture against the walls.
The modern idea is to make living
rooms big enough to place the furn1-
ture out into the middle of the room
A very satisfactory arrangement is
to place big davenport facing the
open fire. Back of the davenport
group of easy chairs may be arranged
in sociable positions. If there is a
parlor table it is showed into the
darkest corner Of the room, where
it is merely tolerated as doubtful
ornament, but the big upholstered
easy chairs, tuffed all over, have the
best positions before the incest win
dows, and their embraces are enjoyed
on every possible occasion.
A woman loves a room like this
when she has the means to furnish
it. and she viii generally economic
in some way until she accomplishes
her object.
The furnishing Of a dining room is
easy. All you need is a rug on the
floor, dining table and chairs to
match. There win be a cabinet for

raised some winter wheat here which
weighed sixty-seven and half pounds
to the bushel, government weight, and
which shipped to Calgary. The mil
Ter who bought it said that it was the
best wheat that had ever gone into
Calgary. Wheat in this district yields
as high as forty bushels to the acre.
oats average sixty bushels. Alfalfa
does well here.
"All in all think the farmers are
very well satisfied with the country,

June he sold $1,000 worth of hogs and
in November two more carloads, be-

Head Bookkeeper Must Be Reliable.


The chief bookkeeper in large

Western cities speaks of the harm
coffee and tea did for him:
my wife and drank our first cup
of Postum a little over two years
ago, and we have used it ever since,
to the entire exclusion Of tea and
coffee. 1t happened in this way:
II had an attack of pneumonia,
which left me with dyspepsia, or neu-
ralgia of the stomach. My cup OF
cheer had always been coffee or tea.
but became convinced, after time.
that they aggravated my stomach
trouble. l happened to mention the
matter to my grocer one day and ne

because it is necessary to consider
appearance. On general principles, a
bungalow, to look right, should be
placed on wide lot. There are &C.
casions, however, when it seems neces-
sary to use a narrow plan, one that
will fit the neighborhood and the
pocketbook.
From the first front yeranda step
to the ending of the rear porch stairs

ally all town lots have considerable
depth. 1t is seldom that builder
is called upon to restrict operations at
the rear of a house. except to curtail
expenses. For this reason usually a
house may have considerable depth
