co.Ouerative Creameries Show
tremendous Increase in
Butter Production.

The Dairy Commissioner, at first an
.., convention Of Saskatchewan
rnsa,,vmens association, reviewed pro-
- -oss of 1915 which shows great In
Ease in the butter production Of the
.noneratiye creamerles amounting to
$4,000 lbs. He also said the i'm
royement in quality is shown by the
rotorence accorded Saskatchewan
tr,ter in outside markets. Shipments
| Out Of the province for the year to-
,aled 50 carloads.
According to bulletin Just Issued by
,ho Manitoba department OF agrlcul-
,ure the dairy industry had a very
,rccessful year in 1915. There was an
'ncreose of over ZOO, 900 lbs. Of cream
orv butter produced, as against the
.revious year about 100000 lbs. In
rroose IN dairy butter and over 25,000
ms increase in the cheese output. The
,rreose of the total value of milk and
milk products was over 1927 900. The
,,oductlen Of dairy butter for Mani
,oba during the year was 4,l50, ,444 lbs
and II brought an average price Of 23c
nor H.. OF creamery butter 5,SS9667
ms were produced which commanded
Qoc per lb. on the average; cheese pro-
drctlon was 726,725 lbs. which sold at
an average price Of 15c-the total
value of these three products is given
ss s276O698, in addition to which the
milk produced Is valued at $J25,659
and the cream at $15S,S27, the average
nrlce Of the milk being reckoned at
Ole per ID. and Of sweet cream at 32c
nor III. butter-fat. In connection with
,he dairy industry II Is interesting to
note that almost the most important
fodder crop now is corn, OF which the
1915 production amounted to 19O,132
tons. The biggest cultivated fodder
crop IS timothy which for last season
produced 193,357 tons and the next
most popular crop was bronze grass
with 1876 tons; Of alfalfa and clover
there were produced some $4,000 tons
The number OF cattle in the province
is given as 631 ,005. which Is an in
crease Of 10000 over the previous
year.
The fact that the Red Deer. Alberta,
cheese factory is handling four times
as much milk this season as last win
fer shows the growing Improvement in
the dairy industry. On Feb. II, It was
announced the factory had just
shipped two tons of cheese for Calgary
market.
Cardston, Alberta, creamery in 1915
paid It's patrons q rate of 27lSc per
II. for butter fnt and had a profit re-
naming over all expenses of 1854.
The creamery during season dlstrib-
uted among farmers SCI, and manu-
featured 256000 lbs. butter and 1900
lbs. cheese. Average price realized for
butter was 2S1A cents.
The development Of the dairy indus
try Of Northern Alberta is well indi-
Gated by the growth Of prominent
dairy business here, which In 1915 pro-
ddced 2,525000 lbs. butter, an increase
Of 100000 lbs. over the previous year
This product has found n market In all
parts Of Canada and this year will en-

knowledge That is Life.

The knowledge of God which con-
stitutes eternal life Is personal
knowledge. God may be known me-
chanlcally through his works Just as
men may be known through the build
ings they have erected. Men may he
known Geographically In the story OF
their accomplishments; but this is not
the same as n personal acquaintance.
To know Abraham Lincoln as the au-
thor Of the Emancipation Proclnma-
ton is way of knowing him, but he
was known In better and personal
way by soldiers who received his par
don when through excessive weariness
they fell asleep on sentry duty. To
know God is TO rejoice In his father
hood and TO feel the thrill of sonship
through faith In Jesus Christ. Immor-
tality involves an endless blessedness
In the knowledge of God. Human pa
rents are powerless TO prolong the
lives of their children. The eternal
God is Lord of life. The risen Christ
win never withdraw his supporting
life from the redeemed soul. "He that
hath the son hath the life; he that
hath not the son of God hath not the
life" no matter what else he may
have in world knowledge or culture.

Life has been defined as the fpnc-

broad or narrow, In accordance win
the environment that is apprehended.
The worm has a low order of life be-
cause its environment Is simply the
soil. The worm knows nothing but
mud and that by the one sense OF
touch Bird life is higher than worm
life. The bird knows the earth ana
the air. the sky and the clouds, ana
has delight I'm the fellowship and song
of its mates. Mans life Is the highest
OF earthly creatures. because his range
of knowledge is the widest. He knows
mere about the earth than the worm,
and more about air and cloud and sky
than can the bird. He apprehends the
conditions of his own country and age,
anl then sweeps in thought the con-
ditions of other lands and times. He
multlplies his sciences until these en-
brace the multiplied facts of earth and
air and sky. He forms his phlloso-
phles dealing with the mystery OF ex-
istence. Mans life is thus the highest
of the earthly creation because the
widest in knowledge.
Eternal Life.
The widest circle OF human knowl-
edge has TO do with God. Science ex-
uts In the scope of her domain when
she turns the pages of the rocks to

out the pathway of the stars but there
Is truth deeper than that written on

In the realm of the physical the du'
