A farmer Of Monarch, Alberta,
claims the distinction Of being the first
in the province TO sell q carload Of
hogs at the high price of eleven cents
. pound, live weight. The sale was
made q short time ago at Calgary, and
at that time was record, although
prices have since gone as high as
$11.12h per hundredweight. With
such prices available for hogs the
farmer has a market for everything
mis- farm produces, as there is prac-
tically no farm product which cannot
be converted into good hog flesh. The
uncertainty Of results which attends
grain farming even under most favor
able conditions is removed when the
settler goes In for raising hogs, beef
and dairy products. With Western
Canada's cheap lands, heavy crops, and
climate free from diseases Of stock,
the stock farmer is as sure Of success
as anyone can be.-Advertisement.

Mrs. sophi. G.. ch.,l.w Lose. Suit.

Colorado Springs.-The case Of Mrs.
Sophia Gertrude Chellew, who several
years ago started suit for half of the
estate OF Winfield Scott Stratton, late
multimillionaire mining king, was
thrown out of court by County Judge
w. P. Kinney at the conclusion Of
several days of evidence. He declared
his decision that the claimant was not
the widow of Stratton, according to
the testimony given by witnesses.
His specific findings were:
That from Dec. 81, 1873, to Jan. g,
1874, Stratton was in or near Colo
rado Springs, and not In Texas, where
Mrs. Chellew claims he was.
That A. N. Poor, first husband Of
Mrs. sChellew. died in 1875, and that
therefore the claimant was Mrs. Poor
at the time she claims to have mar.
ried Stratton:
That the claimant was not married
to Stratton Jan. /, 1874, in Texas, as
set forth in her complaint.
Judge Kinney's decision ends the
suit as far as his court Is concerned
unless an appeal is taken, which is
not expected

the war needs have limited the local
supply. but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth 1t is hoped
that this will be met. As matter Of

farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
and there 70 every prospect of an ex-

which obtained last year will undoubt-

ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making Of cheese, the
feed and the cool nights. two things
essential, and in time 1t is bound to
become one of the finest cheese coun-
tries OF the continent.
The lower foothills of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose. will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark.
The cool nights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is great thing for
the industry. especially when COM

such as exist on the long slopes from

The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one, and the low

realized. make this industry very prof

Of the scenes of special interest is the series on the Katmai Volcanic Eruption of 1912 one of the greatest film productions of an actual eruption ever taken. Other items of interest are the Miles and Childs glaciers, showing huge pieces of ice falling from the face of the ice wall: the hunting of the famous Kodiak Grizzly, capturing of whales and views along the Copper River Rail- road. Of local interest are pictures showing the sea lions at the entrance of Resurrection Bay, the hunting of Moose near here. the "bore" of Turni- gain Arm and beautiful scenes along the Alaska Northern railroad. Pictures of Governor J. F. A. Strong, Delegate Wickersham and scenes of many of the coast towns are also in- cluded in the feature.
