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

1t is getting to be long drawn out
story, the way that Western Canadian
farmers have made money. Many OF
them few years ago, came to the
country with little more than their
few household effects, probably team
of horses and q COW or two, and suffi-
cient money to do them for a few
months, until they got start. Hum
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. q. Merriam, formerly Of Devils
Lake, N. d. He didn't leave there be-
cause 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 1t, too. is
81 came to Alberta in the Spring OF
1909 from Devils Lake, North Dakota,
locating on my farm near palroy.
"I arrived with six head Of horses
and two head of cattle and about
$1,000. Since then, l have increased
my live stock to seven head Of horses,
four head Of cattle, and about one hum
dred head Of hogs, a four-roomed
house, good barn with all modern Inn
provements, a feed grinder, elevator,
chopper, tanning mill, etc. l 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 a gross return Of
$4,000.
81 first started grain farming, but
during the past four years have made
hogs my speciality, and you may see
by the foregoing statement for 1915
that have not done so badly.
Land has increased at least twenty
per cent in value during the past few
years, now selling for from $50 to $35
per uCTe, WIFI IOullHul luAeS VI uDOuI
S27 quarter section yearly.
"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, IL con-
tinued year after year, and IL every
farmer follows this he will be ahead
of the grain growers in the long run.
Taking everything into consideration,
l feel satisfied with my success in
Alberta"

VIII Not Seize Food

1t has been the opinion of a
great many people that the United
States Food Administration would
seize the foodstuffs in the homes Of
North Dakota. In answer to this
the Food Administration emphati-
cally denies the statements and
states that there has been no such
plan by the officials. One varia-
ton OF this statement declares that
the Government intends to take
from each family all canned fruits
and vegetables in excess of 100 OTIS.
The authorities deny that such "a
measure was ever considered and
on the contrary they have been urg
ing housewives to can and dry
fruits and vegetables of all kinds
so as to provide cheap and plenti-
full supply of food for each family.

What Price. Can bs fixed

There has been much discussion
about what prices the Food Ad,
ministratiOn can fix. Prices have
been fixed on coal and wheat by
authority conferred by the Food
Control legislation. Prices ilhve
also been fixed Oh iron and it's pro-
products but not under the Food
Control law. This was done by
agreement with the iron and steel
industries and is voluntary on their
part.
The Food Control legislation
confers power on the president to
fix prices on carload if necessary
to buy and sell it. 1t also confers
authority to buy and sell, and there
fore to fix prices on. wheat, -four,
meal, beans and potatoes. These
are the only articles over which the
president is given the price fixing
power.
The president is given power to
license any business of the country
where the business transacted an
naully exceeds 100000. The
power under such license is con-
ferred to regulate profits in any
line of business but not to fix prices
Authority is given over fertilizer
and agricultural implements under
the license provision but the power
to fix the prices is not conferred
only the power to regulate profits.
The question is often raised in
regard to the price of live stock,
meats, corn, etc. The Food Ad-
ministration acting for the presi-
dent can not under the present law
fix prices on these things because
the authority to do that is not con,
ferred. What the next Congress
nigh do in that line is not known,
but until Congress does act no one
has the power to fix prices on any
commodity except as stated above.
The regulation of profits, which
may be done now in any line of
business, is an entirely different
thing from the fixing of positive
prices. 1t will eliminate specula.
ton but it will not prevent high
prices if they are due to causes
other than speculation.
