CANADA AGAIN
A PRIZE winner
Highest Premiums Awarded at
Many Exhibitions.

The Fall fair season is past and a
retrospect OF them shows that Western
Canada is stronger than eel in the
matter of exhibits, and has taken more
than her usual share Of the prize
money. From Western Canada to
Texas is a long look. from Alberta,
saskatchewan and Manitoba to the
southwestern corner of Texas is e v
eral days journey. but the enterprising
northwest we're wide awake to the
possibilities that waited them at the
international Dry Farming Congress
held at Ell Paso. Texas, Il few weeks
ago. to bring to the attention of those
In that far-Off corner what the land of
Western Canada could do in the pro-
ductiOn of grains and roots from its
soil. And what did these farmers do?
The first thing was to carry Off the
FIRST prize and sweepstakes for wheat.
hnt was Il %fOregOne conclusion, for IL
las nOwb become an established fact that
nowhere else in the world is there
grown wheat of the high character and
market value Of Western Canadian
wheat. The same may be said of oats,
1T barley and of rye. But when it came
to notice that Western Canada took
frst prize for alfalfa, it was then that
more special attention was given to
the products from Western Canada. 1t
showed that in that country there lies
..he opportunity for supplementing the
wonderful native grasses, so full of nu-
triton that With the tanned varieties,
among them being alfalfa, the cattle
with no other food were fattened and
lifted for the SHAMELESS. Western Cam
ada'S worth was proved MS probably
The greatest mixed farming portion Of
the continent When the steers from
The Western Canadian prairies reach
he Chicago stockyards they bring
The top price and outweigh those from
,ther places where grass f%attening is
The process. But it was not only in
grains that Western Canada carried
,f the highest Ilonors at the FL Paso
exhibition. Potatoes, parsnips, beets,
carrots and %rutabagas also took the
highest honOrS. I'm root production
ms country is becoming favOrably
known.
The question often arises as to mar
kets. There is always the highest
price awaiting the producer, and as
SOC as the Hudson Bay Railway, now
about completed, reaches the Bay,
there will be an additional outlet for
The product of the farm. The Pacific
coast route, via the Panama canal, will
give another outlet of which full adj
vantage may be taken. With virgin land
selling at from SIS to $40 per acre, and
improved farms at reasonable prices
md On easy terms, there is no better
opportunity for the man with limited
ear and Il desire to secure a home
at the least cost in a country where
ne can oon become wealthy, as thou
sands of others have done, than in
Western Canadn. To the man with less

Commencing to Simmer

Now, since the two old national
parties have placed their candidates
In the field, state, district and local
politics will soon be receiving some
attention.
So far as this county js concerned.
THE HERALD has not heard Of any
prospective candidates. But legisla-
tive candidates are being mentioned.
Rio Blanco county is again linked
with Routt and M0ffat counties In
the state senatorial district, 30 We are
interested In this matter. But, ~ far
As we know. Rio Blanco county has
no senatorial sspirants. Routt and
Mof1at counties, will. according to
report, have several, both Democrat
ic and Republican.
The Craig Empire, on behalf Of
Mofiat county, has nominated sena-
tor Thomas H. lies to succeed him
self. AS to whether the Senator has
consented to enter the race for pri-
,nary nomination, we are not advised.
He would be . strong candidate in
this county.
Routt county Democratic will like
ly induce J. N. McWilliams Of Steam
boat Springs, to enter the race. Mr..
McWilliams is . pioneer cattle and
successful business man Of the
Steamboat section. He is very pop
ular throughout Routt county.
OF course, this county Is still tied
up with Garfield county as far As the
legislative representation Is concern
ed. So far Rio Blanco county has no
prospective candidate.
For district attorney, the present
efficient and popular holder of that
position, will have practically no OPP
position for denomination and elec-
ton.
Despite the fact that this is a Dem
ocratic year, the Republicans will
likely have candidates for all Of these
places. But there is no reason why
we should worry" over their slim
chances.
