HIGH PRICES
GOOD CROPS
And Good Demand for An Farm
Products.

Il 10 no new experience for settlers
located in a fertile country such ~
Western Canada, where lands may be
bought at very reasonable prices, TO
harvest q crop that In one season pays
the entire cost Of their farm. Undoubt-
eddy this was the experience Of many
farmers during 1915, but n instance
may be quoted. A settler who came
to Canada from the United States
some years ago decided to add to his
holdings by buying an adjoining quar-
ter section near his home at Warner,
at $1,000 an acre, with terms spread
over a period OF years. He got the
land into a good state OF cultivation
and last spring put the whole quarter
section in wheat. When the crop was
threshed he found that It only took
half the wheat on re farm to pay the
whole purchase price OF Il; In short
a single years crop paid the cost Of
the land, paid all the expenses OF op-
Grafton and left him q handsome sur
plus as profit. This settler had some
adjoining land. and his whole wheat
crop for the season amounted to
over $4,000 bushels. He is nov plan.
ming to obtain some sheep and invest
his profits in live stock which will as
sure him a good living irrespective OF
what the season may happen to be.
Canada's financial position is ex-
cellent. All speculation has been elm
mated, and trading is done, on n cash
basis, with restricted credit.
Detailed figures Of Canada's trade
for twelve months ending October 81
show how the war is forcing Canadian
trade into new channels. One Of the
most extraordinary changes Is In COM
merce with the United States. A
couple Of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth OF
goods more than she exported. The
balance OF trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
ly disappearing, and the present out
look is that by the end Of this year
Canada will have exported to the
United States more than she has I'm
ported.
The figures for the past tour years
are Illuminating, They are as fol-
lows:

Invisible GOVERNMENT

Not a great while ago, Senator
Roles pcnrose delivered himself oi
the following protest against the
methods OF the bosses:
THE term invisible government is
one OF those calehpenny phrases
which have been worn quite thread
bare and will not find much currency
In these days. when common sense
Is beginning 20 assert Itself"
In ono particular senator Penrosc
is right; common sense Is beginning
10 assert itself. only Il IL not the par
ticular kind OF common sense that Is
conducive 10 his purposes. The
common sense which the American
people have exhibited from time to
time in their history Is slow In
growth. slow in anger. slow TO see
The wheels 20 round: but when once
the scales are wholly Off the eyes Of
the American people upon any given
issue, their common sense usually
makes pretty good job Of destrnc-
ton ana reconstruction.
The job may not always be done in
tho cheapest and most efficient and
direct way. but Il gets there, and
gets 40 those who oppose II.
II took American common sense
many. many years 10 zee that this
country had had enough Of negro
slavery And Il has taken II even
longer 20 see that slavery to bosses
and Invisible government has been
an expensive luxury, which might
better be wiped Off the slate.
