WESTERN CANADA'S
CROPS !,
Got an Excellent Start. Big
Yields Now Assured.

Never in the history Of Western
Canada did the seed enter the ground
under more favorable conditions. The
weather during the month Of April
was perfect for seeding operations,
and from early morning until late at
night the seeders were at work, and
every acre that could be profitably
sown was placed under requisition.
Farmers entered heart and soul into
the campaign Of greater production.
There was the time and the opportu-
nifty for careful preparation, and as q
consequence with favorable weather
from now ION there will be vastly in.
creased yield. They realized 1t was
duty they owed to humanity to produce
all that they could on the land, not
only this year but next as well. In
addition to the patriotic aspect, they
are aware that the more they produce
the greater will be their own return
IN dollars and cents.
In many districts wheat seeding was
completed by the LIST of May, after
which date oats and barley on larger
acreages than usual were planted.
AS has been said, favorable weather
conditions made possible. excellent
seed-bed preparation, and the seed has
gone into the ground in unusually good
shape. The available moisture in the
soil has been added to by rains, which
have not been so heavy, however. as to
interfere long with the work In the
fields. The grain is terminating read

blades Of the cereal are already show
Ing.
An optimistic feeling prevails among
farmers that Western Canada will reap
a record harvest. If the season irons
now on is as favorable as 1t has begun,
these hopes should be realized. Mr..
j. ID. McGregor of the Federal Food
Board, who is also an old and success
full farmer in Western Canada, assert
ed few days ago at Calgary that crop
conditions throughout the Prairie
Provinces were excellent. speaking
generally" he said, "the crops have
never gone into the ground in better
shape than this year, and with an
even break of luck as far as the wealth

enormous crop" His present duties in
connection with the Food Control
Board, taking him In all parts of the
West, Mr.. McGregor has exceptional
opportunities Of observing conditions

already hazardous tasks Of the ships

beating the U-boat, and this requires
constant work. Recently the bottom

he made his way through steam-filled

French Syndicate
 Buying of Raw
 Material Abroad

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15. - What amounts to cooperative, syndicated buying in foreign markets has been adopted as q war measure by French manufacturers who get raw materials abroad. Commercial Attache Pierce Williams. at Paris, points out that French industries, are therefore being rapidly centralized in syndicates act. ing on behalf of the French govern, ment
 These importing syndicates are known as consortiums. Their capital stock is fixed by the government and each manufacturer requiring the raw materials is permitted to take cer. tain amount based on his pre-war i'm. ports.
 The consortium is permitted to dis tribute the material to the members at a price determined by the ministry of commerce. It is expected that waste. ful competition will be prevented in markets which also must supply Frances associates in the war, and that profiteCrinE by mushroom firms will be eliminated.
