ROMANTIC STORY OF WHEAT
World Being Fed on Grain Grown on
Land That Was Comparatively Re-
Gently a Waste.

A direct result of the present war,
more pleasant to contemplate than the
stories of carnage, is the stimulus it
has given to the chief industry of the
huge central basin Of North America.
Winnipeg is the geographical center
Of the continent, and from it in every
direction in Canada and far down into
the United States spread the rolling
miles of what is undoubtedly the great
est wheat region in the world.
The figures presented by the Ameri-
a and Canadian governments for the
year just closed tell a romantic story.
In the area of the Canadian Northwest
and of the American border states 600,-
100000 bushels of the highest grade
wheat known to the markets was
grown, and yet within the memory Of
men not yet old every acre of it was
given over to the Indian and the buff
falo.
Long after our Civil war a British
traveller wrote an exceedingly inter-
esting book called THE Great Lone
Land, describing his struggles with
billiards. and starvation in what is
now the wheat empire. He did. not
think much of 1t as a country for set
tiers; but time has quickly shown how
much he was mistaken, just as it
showed in a few years de Tocqueville's
great error when he predicted that
our western advance would break
against the Rocky mountains, or Mac
aulay's miscalculation when he assert
ed that W. would cease to grow much
as soon as all our good free land was
taken up.
There are many impressive chapters
in the story Of the continent, but there
is none nor picturesque than the one
which is being made in u day by q
grain of wheat.
