Flour 10 Explosive.

During the last ten years, about
twenty explosions have occurred in
cereal, -four and feed mills. with the
loss of two million dollars worth Of
property, as we'll as the killing or In.
juring of over 200 employees. Inves.
legations regarding the causes Of these
explosions and subsequent fires have
not proved conclusively what are the
difficulties to be avoided. In eight
cases the explosions are believed to
have originated from the sparks pro-
duced in the machines during the
grinding process. Tiny particles Of
gravel or metallic substances coming
into contact with the plates Of the
machine may produce enough sparks
to ignite the dust within the machine.
Another possible cause for cereal
dust explosions suggested is the use
of naked fames.-Popular Science

Murder.
For q moment the girl stood, gazing
with horrifed eyes at the Jewel at her
feet. At first she could not believe
that she was awake; then, leaning
forward, she picked it up and placed It
upon the table. The act. simple as It

was watching her through half-closed
eyes.

Her father nodded silently but did
not take his eyes from her face.
Well she knew where the trouble
lay. Well she knew why he had taken
the stone, for the trouble had lain with
them always, and the shadow of 1t
had blighted the latter years of her
mothers life
Sane upon every other subject, the
wealthy old miner, who had earned a
worldwide reputation as connoisseur
in matters of art, had got along with
it an equally well-earned reputation
as kleptomaniac.
For years she had known Of this
failing Of her father. On her very
deathbed Dorothy's mother had spoken
plainly Of 1t, laying it upon the daugh-
ter to be careful to prevent any such
thing from occurring again.

in his camp" she reiterated. WAS 1t

Again he nodded silently. The girl,
her bright head sunk upon her hands.
stood silent with the shame Of it.
II needed It'll needed 1t! And
they would not sell such curio. That

Who Is that coming up the hill? Is 1t
Wilkes come back?"
1t was Wilkes come back, and
Manuel along with him. A volley of
curses of more than ordinary fluency
told that they had companions.
Motioning the women back, Upton
flung open the door, admitting the two
men with their prisoners.

WHO'S GOT
THE MONEY
In Four Staples Alone the Farm.
ers of Western Canada Pro-
duced 400 Million DOL
lars in 1915.

The Calgary (AlDerta) printers nave
house organ, called 'The Magnet"
and-in its columns a few weeks ago
appeared an article entitled "Who's Got
the money!" 1t was cleverly written,
and but for its length, the writer would
have been pleased to have copied the
article In its entirety. The purpose for
which this article is published, how
ever, that of letting the readers of the
paper know of the great progress that
is being made in agriculture in West
ern Canada, will be served by copying
portion OF the article. Many of the
readers of this paper doubtless have
friends in one of the three provinces
Manitoba Saskatchewan or Alberta,
and they will be interested in feeling
that their friends are enjoying Q
portion of the wealth that has come
to Western Canada farmers as re-
suit of careful tilling of a soil prOdi-
gal in everything that goes to make
good grain, cattle, horses, hogs and
sheep.
Reproducing from the article:
The government does not produce
money. It can stamp "One Dollar" on
a slip of white paper, and we accept
It at dollars worth, but neither the
paper nor the printing are worth
copper. What gives 1t value is the
promise of the people Of Canada which
stands behind the printed slip, and our
faith in that promise.
Now do you know who's got the
money?
Let us put it into figures. The farm
ers of Alberta, Saskatchewan and
Manitoba last year raised 342,94S,O00
bushels of wheat. If we take for an
average 50 cents bushel in Manitoba,
81 cents in Saskatchewan, and 20 cents
In Alberta the seasons wheat crop was
worth 2SO,629,OOO. Add to this IN
oat crop of 334,S4O,O00 bushels,
worth $95, 457 600; barley crop Of 3d.
200 bushels, worth 1881, 600, and
a flax crop of 1O,559.OO bushels worth
SIS, 843 900, and you find that on these
four staples alone the farmers of West
ern Canada produced a wealth Of
$$407, SOC, 900.
Please note that this wealth is in
money. 1t is not in real estate at In
fated values, industrial stocks that are
half water and the rest air, fictitious
goodwills or unsaleable merchandise.
1t is In hard cash, or-which is better
