SOLD SHOTGUN
FOR TEN DOLLARS
And Filed on Western Canada
Land. Now Worth $4,000.

Lawrence Bros. of Vera, Saskatche-
wan, are looked upon as being amongst
the most progressive farmers In West
ern Canada. They have had their
'ups-and-downS," and know what it
is to be in tight pinches. They perse-
Vered, and are now in an excellent
financial position. Their story is an
interesting one. Coming in from the
states they travelled overland from
Calgary across the Battle river, the
Red Deer river, through the Eagle
Hills and on to Battleford. On the
way their horses were stolen, but this
did not dishearten them. They had
some money, with which they bought
more horses, and some provisions.
When they reached Battleford they
had only money enough to pay their
ferriage over the Saskatchewan river
and this they had to borrow. 1t was
In 1906 that they filed on homesteads,
having to sell a shotgun for ten dol
lars in order to get sufficient money to
do so. Frank Lawrence says:
"Since that time we have ACQUIRED
altogether section and a half Of
land, in addition to renting another
three quarters of a section. If we
had to sell out now we could probably
realize about $4,000, and have made
all this since we came here. We get
crops in this district of from 80 to
30 bushels Of wheat to the acre and
oats from 40 to so bushels to the acre
Stock here pays well. We have LOO
sheep, 20 cattle and go horses, of which
number are registered Clydes."
Similar successes might be given of
the experiences of hundreds of farm
ers throughout Western Canada, who
have done comparatively as well. Why
should they not dress well, live well,
have comfortable homes, with all mod
ern equipments, electric light, steam
heat, pure ventilation, and automo-
biles. Speaking Of automobiles it will
be a revelation to the reader to learn
that during the first half of 1917, 49,
900 automobile licenses were issued in
Alberta, twice as many as in the whole
of 1915. In Saskatchewan, $1,000 IL
censes were issued up to the first of
May, 1917. In its monthly bulletin for
juno the Canadian Bank of Commerce
makes special reference to this phase
and to the general prosperity Of the
West in the following:
Generally speaking the western
farmer is, in many respects, in a much
better position than hitherto to in
crease his production. Two years of
high prices for his products have en-
abled him, even with a normal crop,
to liquidate a substantial proportion
OF his liabilities and at the same time
to buy improved farm machinery. His
prosperity is reflected in the demand
for building materials motor cars
and other equipment. 1t is no doubt
true that some extravaganza is evil
denced by the astonishing demand for
motor cars, but it must be remembered
that many of these cars will make for
efficiency on the farm and economic
both time and labor" -Advertisement

Disturbing Remark.

A country lawyer was defending a
prisoner who had killed man by hit
ting him on the head with a brick.
The case against the prisoner being
quite clear, the counsel endeavored to
get his client off by making a per-
fervid speech. He said: ''The respon-
sibility of defending my client is al
most overwhelming. This morning as
1 was walking in my garden enjoying
the lovely sunshine and balmy air, lis
tening to the birds singing, and look
ing at all the beautiful flowers, l said
to myself, My poor client, immured in
his cell, can see none of these
things!'"
Just then a spectator at the back of
the court shouted: Neither can the
man he hit on the head with brick !"

kilaueays Lava L axe.

Early reports Indicate that the
alarms of war will not prevent many
Americans from visiting their new
national park in Hawaii. Three cele-
brated volcanoes, Kilauea, Mauna
Loa and Haleakala are in the new
reservation. The lava lake at
Kilauea, a spectacle which has drawn
thousands of visitors in past years
from every part of the world, will
be, it is predicted, unusually spectacu-
lar this season because of the recent
increased volcanic activity in the re-
gion.
