PROSPERITY IN
WESTERN CANADA
900 Million Dollars in New Wealth
Added in 1915.

Canada as a whole mas enjoyed won.
derful prosperity in 1915, from the
products of the farm, the orchard and
the centres of industry. No country
wrote a brighter page of history in
agricultural and . industrial develop
ment during 1915 than Canada. Nearly
a billion bushels Of grain produced.
Taxes in Western Canada average $24
and will not exceed s35 per quarter
section. which includes all taxes. No
taxes on improvements.
When Western Canada was faced
with her enormous harvest last fall
the military authorities decided that
soldiers in Canada could give the EN-
pire no better service for the time
being than to assist in harvesting the
crops. For that reason leave of alb.
sence was given to soldiers who
wished to work in the harvest fields,
and their labor was an important fac.
tor in harvesting the big crops success
fully.
The necessity for increasing the ag.
ricultural production is commanding
even more attention in 1916, and it is
now announced that soldiers in Can.
ada may obtain leave of absence from
their military duties in the spring for
a certain length Of time to enable
them to plant the seed for the crops
in every Province of the Dominion
The fact that the Government rec

Canadas crops as being of the first

While Kansas and other western
states have wonderful alfalfa farms
it was demonstrated before the
annual meeting OF Farmer Bankers
association here that there are some
in Wisconsin that rank among the i'm
est. The demonstration was made by
means of motion pictures in which
every phase OF the industry was por-
trayed
One farm owned by the Schwartz
brothers in Waukesha county was
shown with nearly 200 acres of al
falfa, with six mowers encircling the
mammoth fields and with all sorts Of
laborsaving machinery scarcely known
to the average farmer of WISCONSIN
The farmer in northern Wisconsin
does not need alfalfa as badly as the
farmer in southern Wisconsin" said
Prot L. f GRADER, alfalfa expert of the
university. The farmer in the upper
state has the advantage of very rank
growth of clover which offsets in a
Sarge measure the need of alfalfa.
There are some difficulties with al
falfa. 1t must be taken care of dur
ing the summer just at the time when
other crops are pressing for attention.
There are also other handicaps, but
the fact remains that there is no crop
on the Wisconsin farm with such a
high digestible food value as alfalfa.
1t is the crop which restores the most
fertility to the soil 1t is the heaviest
yielding crop, exceeding silage and
timothy greatly"
j. r. Wheeler, discussing herd rec
ords, pointed out that the average COW
in Wisconsin produces only III pounds
of butterfat per year while there are
herds in the southern part of the state
producing GOO pounds of butter on the
average and there are many herds
with butterfat records of $50 to 500
pounds.
The work OF milking which the
farmers complain of. said Mr.. Wheel.
er, the trouble in getting hired hands,
might be minimized easily if the farm
ers kept better COWS One farmer in
single year, he pointed out. by keep
ing better COWS got as big return
from four COWS the second year as
previously from ten.
Dean II. L. Russell pointed out in
his address that the farm college is
costing every farmer in the state about
ten cents on every $1,000 of assess
ment. so that each farmer is paying
in the aggregate about so cents year
for support of the farm school.
Come here and get your so cents
/ worth" urged Dean Russell. Come
and judge if we are delivering the
goods
Professor Russell pointed out all OF
the ways that are being used by the
college OF agriculture TO disseminate
information.

Final details of plan for the eradi-
cation of tuberculosis in cattle
through the establishment of state ac-
credited tuberculin tested herds,
evolved after thorough study by C. p.
Norford. commissioner Of agriculture;
Q. Fl. Eliason, state veterinarian, and
the live stock sanitary board was
made public here.
Assurance has been received from
live stock sanitary boards of many
states by the Wisconsin department OF
agriculture that they will accept cattle
from the accredited herds without test
ing Immediately prior to shipment 1t
is believed that the federal department
of agriculture will cooperate with the
various states in the establishment oil
tested herds. It is pointed out that
the buyers of other states will prefer
animals from tuberculin tested herds
and pay greater prices for them.
A number of applications have al
ready been received Farmers will
agree to follow instructions concern
ing the removal of reacters and sus-
poets and to pay rs cents head for
the test or minimum of $18 for any
herd of less than "a head. These rates
will be raised or lowered according to
the experience Of the first year Only
sufficient fee will be charged to make
the work self-sustaining. Tests Will
be made annually or as often as the
board may deem necessary by veteri-
narians employed by the state.
The number of cattle to be tested
at the time will be limited SO as to give
the veterinarian an opportunity to
study each individual animal. If any
reactors are found they must be re-
moved and the premises disinfected
under the direction of the board. As
soon as sufficient applications are re
ceived from any one part Of the state.
veterinarians will be sent out on SEIZED
ule to test herds for admission to the
list

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they be

When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels oft
en- get sore, water scalds and you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharma'
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts,
take a tablespoonful in glass OF
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act dne.
