THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been MADE
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga.
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country viii recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE the toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions, of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances, that is the first
thing asked for. Adv.

INCREASE IN WESTERN
CANADA ACREAGE
WIN Prove a Big Factor in Win
ming the War.

Reports to hand Indicate that West.
ern Canada has a vastly increased
acreage ready for crop this year over
last year. The splendid open fall OF
1917, gave better opportunity for fan
blowing than for some years, Work
In the. fields was almost continuous
until the end Of November. In fact, In
the neighborhood of Pincher Greek.
Alberta, there was sufficient mild
weather in January of this year TO
permit farmers TO pillow, and many
took advantage OF II. A great many
Americans owning land in Canada
moved up last year, and this has also
helped to increase the acreage. They
came into possession of the land at
prices varying from $500 to $1,000
an acre, and with the proven yields
OF wheat running from twenty and as
high as fifty bushels per acre. with n
set price of 1921 busbel. they could
join production and patriotism to-
gether with big margin Of profit.
The Post-Intelligencer of Seattle,
Wash, gives a very conservative state
ment of the agricultural development
and opportunities in Western Canada.
In its issue of December II, 1917, II
says
"Since the beginning OF the year
American emigration into Canada has
been greatly stimulated according 10
the reports OF the Dominion authori-
dies, and has been almost entirely made
up of farmers attracted by the fertile
and comparatively cheap wheat lands.
Whatever may be said OF wheat
culture as a profitable avocation in
ordinary years, since the beginning OF
the war IL has offered advantages
quite beyond the usual opportunities
War has doomed the price OF wheat
until the farmer now receives around
81 for his product at his granary
| Average crops, according to the adap.
tation of soil and climate are from
| u to % bushels to the acre. Ever
the minimum crop, at 50 per bushel
brings in these war times q reasonable
profit. Before the war wheat culture
was fast being abandoned by farmers
who worked intelligently for results
on the right side of the ledger 1t ha,
been the popular crop for new coun
tries, but when the pioneers settled
down to business 1t was generally
corn, hogs, cattle and diversified farm
ing that brought the profits. Iowa ant
the Dakotas in turn, as their prairie
became settled, mortgaged the land OF
wheat culture and afterwards paid OF
the mortgages with corn and hogs.
''War is thus bringing n Temporal,
encouragement to wheat farming
Many of the ranchers of Manitoba, Sas
katchewan and Alberta laid ava,
$4,000 to $4,000 in the banks last fall
It may be pointed out, however, tina
the growing of wheat is not the onl
inducement which is leading settle
ment to Canadian lands. Low taxation
favorable agricultural climate, ant
profitable prices not only for grain bu
for hogs, cattle and all forms Of farm
produce all contribute their shar
toward the rapid settlement of the fer
tile lands Of Western Canada. "-Ad
