BISHOP BRENT

Among those who have 1abored steadfastly for the civilization and en- lightenment of the dusky wards of Uncle Sam in the Philippines, few have accomplished as much perma- nent good as Rev. Dr. Charles Henry Brent, the missionary bishop of the Protestant Episcopal church in the distant isles. Bishop Brent is Ca nadian by birth and early environ ment, having been! born fifty-five years ago today, April g, 1862, at Newcastle, Ontario. He is the son of Rev. Canon Henry Brent, and was educated at the University of Trinity College in Toronto, where he won classical honors. He was ordained a deacon in 1886, and a, priest the fol- lowing year, of the Protestant Episco- pal church. serving first as assistant minister of St. Paul's Cathedral in Buffalo. Later he was associate rec tor of the Church of St. John the Evangelist and of St. Stephens in Boston.
 It was at the general convention of the church in 1901 that the young clergyman was elected Bishop of the l Philippine Islands. He had gained wide fame as forceful religious
 
 Churchman, and his clerical associ- : ates deemed him we'll qualified for the difficult task of carrying the faith 1 to the little brown islanders of the | Orient. It is among the savage and feroci- ous Moros that Bishop Brent has achieved his greatest success For centuries these aggressive and inde- pendent people had. resisted all at tempts to Christianize them and to conquer them by free of arms. AL though nominally Mohammedans, they were really pagans until Bishop 1 Brent affected their conquest by kindness. The Moros are intelligent as well as brave, and the suspicion with which they first greeted Bishop Brent's non-sectarian social service work soon gave way to appreciation and gratitude. With his co-workers, Bishop Brent has inaugurated mis- sions, hospitals and schools which have made the Moros real asset to

MADE $1,000
OUT OF HOGS
On His Western Canadian Farm.

-
It is getting to be a long drawn out
story, the way that Western Canadian
farmers have made money. Many Of
them a few years ago, came to the
country with little more than their
few household effects, probably a team
Of horses and a COW or two, and sufi-
cient money to do them for a few
months, until they got a start. Hun
dreds Of such can be pointed out, who
today have splendid homes, well
equipped farms, the latest machinery
and an automobile. Here is the case
Of A. e. Merriam, formerly Of Devils
Lake, N. d. He didn't leave there be-
aus the land was poor, or farming
not a success, for all who Know that
country are aware that 1t is an excel
lent country. He wanted to expand,
to take advantage Of the cheap land
that Western Canada offers. And that
same story has appealed to hundreds
of others who have had like success
with Mr.. Merriam. But his story, and
he signs II, too, is:
II came to Alberta in the Spring Of
1909 from Devils Lake, North Dakota,
locating on mys farm near Dalroy.
~ arrived with six head of horses
and two head of cattle and about
1880. Since then, / have increased
my live stock to seven head of horses,
four head Of cattle, and about one hun
bred head of hogs, a four-roomed
house, good barn with all modern i'm
prOvements, a feed grinder, elevator,
chopper, tanning mill, etc. 1 have in
creased my original capital at least
four times more since coming here.
From the feeding Of hogs during
the last year, l had q gross return Of
5000.
81 first started grain farming, but
during the past four years 1 have made
hogs my speciality, and you may see
by the foregoing statement for 1916
that l have not done so badly.
Land has increased at least twenty
per cent in value during the. past few
years, now selling for from $25 to S35
per acre, with nominal taxes Of about
$27 a quarter section yearly.
1.-THE climate here is better than Da-
kota in that we do not have so much
dry wind; the winters are similar to
Dakota.
"As for farming in general, the grow
ing and feeding Of live stock is more
sure than the grain farming, If con-
tinued year after year, and If every
farmer follows this he will be ahead
Of the grain growers In the long run.
Taking everything into consideration,
I feel satisfied with my success in
Alberta"
