IT STOPPED SERVICE
Complaint Filed Charging Manllatta n

Manhattan is having more trouble
with her interurban railroad. A COM
plant was filed with the public utili-
ties commission today alleging that
the Manhattan City Interurban rail-
way has stopped running its cars into
the business district of the town with
out consent of the commission.
A short time ago the Manhattan city
government passed an ordinance that
prohibited the interurban from park
ing its cars in the business district,
that made it unlawful for the COM
pany to run it's cars backwards with
the motorman facing the opposite di-
rection from the way the car was go
ing and that compelled the company
to run its cars around a loop.
After this ordinance went into ef-
feet, 1T is claimed the interurban
company ceased to run its cars to the
business districts of the city. causing
great inconvenience to the citizens.

The fellow who buttOnholes you, or
picks hairs off your coat, and maybe
winks a rOguish sort of wink, isn't in
it with the shoulder hitter and crazy
bone crusher. He doesn't appear to
be afraid of your breaking away, but
wants to be confidential and intimate.
Then there is the fellow who per-
sists in trying to keep in front of you.
He necessarily crowds you to the edge
of the sidewalk or to the wall.
His underStudy is the chap who tries
to keep step with you without being
able to get your step. Taking about
three steps to your two he is forever
losing the step and forever trying to
catch it. When you try to accommO-
date your step to his you are apt to
find him trying to accommodate his
step to yours, so that you only muss
up bad mess.

HeIp Save Sheen.

The dog rightfully holds a strong
place in the minds and affections of
men. The owner of good dog finds
in him n most faithful friend. But 1t
sometimes happens that the dog most
highly esteemed is also one that kills
and worries the most sheep and is the
most cunning in obScuring the evil
dences of his guilt. A well-bred dogs
habit Of lying innocently asleep in the
front yard during the daytime is not
proof that the same dog does not kill
sheep at night. Because of the eco
nomic loss OccasiOned by sheep-killipg
dogs, and because such dogs bring the
whole of their kind into bad repute
the true admirers and friends of this
animal should help to further any
steps likely to result in the limitation
of the activity of these dlscrediting
members of a noble race. One Of the
most practicable methods of accom-
pliShing this result seems to be to
place upon dogs such tax as will re-
duce the number of superfluOus ones
and result in fewer being kept by per-
sons who cannot or will not give them
the attention necessary to prevent the
formation of habits and associations
that lead to sheep killing.

WHERE FARMING
IS PROFITABLE
The Future Of Great Possibilities.

Some idea of the great wealth that
the Western Canada farmer had In
view few years ago is nOW being real
lied. The amount received from the
sale of wheat, oats, barley, fax and
rye In 1917 was $27O,OOO,O0O, while the
sales of live stock at Winnipeg alone
netted $40O00,0O0 additional. OF this
sum hogs alone gave over eleven nil
lion dollars. The increases at Calgary
and Edmonton were over 6A million
dollars.
This money, so easily earned, Is be-
ing spent in improvements In farm
property, purchasing additional land'
buying tractors, automobiles, and IN
proving home conditions, providing
electric light, steam heat, new furnl-
ture, pianos, buying Victory bonds
paying off old debts, etc.
Over five hundred tractors were sold
in Southern Alberta in 1917. One
implement agent reports that the IN
crease in his business in 1917, over
that of 1916, was equal to the total
business in 1915. 1t is the same story
all over the country. And 1t Is NOT
this evidence alone which proves the
advancement and growth Of the three
prairie provinces, but the large In
crease in the number of settlers; tho
Improvement in the extent OF the cul'
tivated areas and agricultural produc
ton; the increase in value OF whicn
over 1916 was $77,OOO,OOO.
This wonderful progress that mas
been made in agriculture In western
Canada is but the beginning whicn
marks the future of the greatest agrl'
cultural country on the continent
showing future Of great posslbiltles.
There are millions of acres yet un-
titled. and Of land as good as any OF
that which is now giving it's owners
return Of from twenty to thirty dollars
an acre, figures that in many cases
represent the cost of the land, with all
cultivation costs included. 1t Is true
that the cost of production has IN
creased during the past few years, but
the price Of the product has also IN
creased to a figure which leaves a
large balance to the credit of the pro-
ducer.
