10 her lover to make a man of himself
and do his duty. This appeal not only
accomplishes the desired result in the
picture but strikes home TO the hearts
of hundreds of young "slackers" who
are often found as steady patrons of
the photoplay theatres. These men
and boys may not be military slack
ers. they may have volunteered and
been rejected for numerous reasons,
but they have made no further at

The example set by Miss La Babe,
however, radiates from the screen to
the very soul of the luke warm Ameri-

would be respected in the community
he must be up and doing.
In this way Miss La Badie has left
behind her an invaluable weapon TO

Rice q La South Carolina.

No food, regardless of its merits, will
appeal to the consumer unless 1t can
be made into an attractive dish. In
this country rice usually comes to the
table as an uninviting. glutinous mass.
except in certain sections of the South
ern states, where 1t Is served with each
grain distinct and separate, making q
very tempting and appetizing dish. A
platter heaped with loose, flaky ker-
nels Of rice Is not only pleasing to the
eye, but satisfying to the APPETITE. II
is very probable that the attractive ap-
pearance Of this dish on the South
Carolina table has had much to do
with the popularity and usefulness Of
rice in ,that state.
In seeking information on the art Of
cooking rice. no mistake Is made In re-
ferring to South Carolina, where the
true value Of this cereal has been ap-
preciated for over two centuries. A
Carolina housewife would advise the
using Of one pint Of rice, after thor
ough washing, which she considers i'm
portant, ITO a quart and pint Of wa
ter" and a teaspoonful of common
salt. "This is to be boiled over a quick
fire for ten minutes. stirring occasion
ally. Then pour OF all or nearly all
the water; cover the vessel and put
over a very slow fire, and allow It to
steam for 10 minutes at least, stirring
occasionally. The rice will be soft or
grainy, according to the quantity Of
water left on It when put to steam. and
the length OF time allowed in the
steaming. The larger the quantity Of
water and the shorter the steaming,
the softer will be the rice"
OF course. other methods are used in
boiling rice or at least notifications Of
the recipe given. but It must be re-
membered that the results should not
be glutinous mass and that success
depends upon the proper amount OF
water used and the length Of time in
steaming.

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, 900, while the
sales of live stock at Winnipeg alone
netted $4O,000,000 additional. OF this
sum hogs alone gave over eleven mil
lion dollars. The increases at Calgary
and Edmonton were over 6H million
dollars.
This money, so easily earned. is be-
ing spent in improvements in farm
property, purchasing additional land,
buying tractors, automobiles, and i'm
proving home conditions, providing
electric light, steam heat, new furni-
ture, pianos, buying Victory bonds,
paying up 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
ehiS e'iueice ulOne WHICH proves tne
advancement and growth of the three
prairie provinces, but the large in
crease In the number of settlers; the
Improvement in the extent of the cul-
tivated areas and agricultural produc-
ton; the increase in value of which
over 1916 was $77,OOOOOO.
This wonderful progress that has
been made in agriculture In Western
Canada is but the beginning which
marks the future of the greatest agrl-
cultural country on the continent,
showing future Of great possibilities.
There are millions of acres yet I'M
TILED, and of land as good as any Of
that which is now giving its 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 figure which leaves a
large balance to the credit of the pro-
ducer.
