Rev. R. D. Britain, for two years
and nine months pastor of the Glas-
gov Baptist church, has given up his
passionate and has applied for en-

they will visit Mr.. Brittain's parents
for several weeks. While there they
will have the pleasure of being pres
ent at the golden wedding of Mr.. and
Mrs. Britain, ST.,
The reception which was to have
been given in honor of the departing
pastor and his wife had to be given
quarantine. At the ladies' aid meet
up Of course because of the influenza
ing last Thursday Mrs. Britain was
presented with a lovely gold brooch
set with a Montana sapphire as a token
of the esteem of the ladies. Mrs.
Roberts made the presentation speech
which was fittingly responded to by
Mrs. Britain. The beautiful gold
watch which the church was to have
given to the pastor at the reception
was presented to him before leaving.
During the past three years the
church has had a remarkable growth
due to the unceasing vigilance of the
energetic pastor, who has always been
a factor in every movement for the
uplift Of the community.
For the time being the Brittains
will remain in Missouri and Rev Brit
tain will supply a church while await
ing his call into the army.

dition until he arrived in Hinsdale on
Sunday, a short time after death had
claimed it's victim.
Mrs. Butcher was % years of age

LEAGUE TO REPUDIATE MANN.

Pocatello, Idaho, Sept. 29.-Efforts
of Nonpartisan League officials in
Boise to r~epudiate Horace Mann, who
was jailed in Gooding yesterday by
the county council of defense of that
place for having made seditious re-
marks and scattering seditious liter
allure in Gooding county, were in vain,
when evidence was sprung on the
Boise leaders of the league showing
that Mann was in good standing in
the league.
At Boise headquarters later it was
admitted that Horace Mann had been
in the employ of the league, working
under its direction. Several letters
and articles of a radical nature were
found on Mann and also confidential
letters from Ray McKaig of Boise,
one of the leading movers in the Non
partisan League.

Somewhere in England,

Dear Sis: Well, l have seer a bit
of England, as I have travelled by
train better than 200 miles and all in
the day time, too. So l had a fine
view of the country. 1t sure is a pref
ty country. The farms are small but
extremely we'll cultivated.
They have a bumper crop here in
England this year. They are in the
middle of harvest now. The livestock
that they have here is very good. The
horses are large and the cattle fat.
English blue grass is sure green. 1t
is such a bright color. You have no
idea how thickly the country is set
tied. 1t is a beautiful country but old
Montana in the U. S. A. is plenty good
enough for me. A person has room to
turn around in out there. 1t is a beau
tiful day today. 1t is always foggy in
the mornings.
I am we'll and feeling fine. l will
soon be at the front in France OF
somewhere else. The English are
rather hard to understand unless YOU
pay strict attention to them. I sure
would hate to be a German soldier anC

Germans knew what was good fol

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 fall
blowing than for some years. Work
in the fields was almost continuous
until the end Of November. In fact, in
the neighborhood Of Pincher Creek,
Alberta, there was sufficient mild
weather in January Of this year to
permit farmers to pillow, and many
took advantage Of 1t. 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 ut
prices varying from $500 to $4,000
an acre, and with the proven yields
Of wheat running from twenty and as
high as fifty bushels per acre, with a
set price of 1921 bushel, they could
Join production and patriotism to-
gether with a big margin Of profit.
The Post-Intelligencer Of Seattle,
WASH, gives very conservative state
ment Of the agricultural development
and opportunities in Western Canada.
In its issue of December IA, 1917, it
says:-
"Since the beginning Of the year
American emigration into Canada has
been greatly stimulated according to
the reports Of the Dominion authors
ties, 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 It has offered advantages
quite beyond the usual opportunities.
War has doomed the price Of wheat
until the farmer now receives around
So for his product at his granary.
Average crops, according to the adap-
tation Of Soil and climate are from
IL to Is bushels to the acre. Even
the minimum crop. at 81 per bushel,
brings in these war times 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 has
been the popular crop for new coun-
tries, but when the pioneers settled
down to business it was generally
corn, hogs, cattle and diversified farm
ing that brought the profits. Iowa and
the Dakotas in turn, as their prairies
became settled, mortgaged the land on
wheat culture and afterwards paid OFF
the mortgages with corn and hogs.
"War is thus bringing a temporary
encouragement to wheat farming.
Many Of the ranchers Of Manitoba, Sass
katchewan and Alberta laid away
$4,000 to 10000 in the banks last fall.
It may be pointed out, however, that
the growing Of wheat is not the only
inducement which is leading settle
ment to Canadian lands. Low taxation.
favorable agricultural climate, and
profitable prices not only for grain but
for hogs, cattle and all forms Of farm
produce all contribute their share
toward the rapid settlement Of the fer
tile lands of Western Canada. "-Ad-
