From where are we to get more
cheese when none is being imported
from Europe, and we now consume
all that our American dairies are
manufacturing? Why, from our
neighbor Canada, of course. For the
production of good milk, and hence
good cheese, no country in the world
is better adapted than Canada. Its
prairie provinces occupy the same
latitude as do the famous cheese
making countries of Europe. The
climatic and atmospheric conditions
throughout the whole of Western
Canada are ideal for the raising of
live stock. 1t is unsurpassed for
grazing purposes, being for centuries
the home of countless thousands of
buffaloes. These were displaced by
the great herds of Cattle Barons.
What was good for beef cattle is
good for dairy cattle and Canadian
dairymen are proving this. If it is
desired to supplant grazing with
other feed, Canada's rich virgin
prairies yield maximum harvests at
minimum cost.

Canada's output of cheese is ev..g
up by leaps and bounds. Manitohs,
and Alberta each put on the market
a million pounds in 1916. Canadian
butter has great reputation, due to
the splendid system of grading
which insures a standard quality ta
the consumer. Canadian cheese is
gaining this same high reputation
because the same system of grading
governs its marketing, The demand
is taxing the output and more and
more farmers are turning their ati
tention to dairy cattle. Dairyinc
Associations and good railroad trans
portation combine to bring big re-
turns into the dairy farmers
pockets.
There is still much good grazin-
land to be had at low prices and
dairy stock of all breeds is available
at the various Canadian Government
Experimental Farms and the Can
adam Pacific Demonstration Farm.
For the man who wants to get into
the Cheese Game, now is the time
and Western Canada is the place.

Official Report Of Aviator S
Death Says Accident o.
Cured in Line of Duty.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 10
Failure to buckle his safety belt and
the peculiar quick snap" Of his scout
plane when 1t was nosed over for q
glide apparently caused the death Of
Major John Purroy Mitchell. the Of
fetal report says on the accident at
Gerstner field, Louisiana. received
here Yesterday at the War Depart
ment.
The Investigating Board found that
Major Mitchells death occurred in
line Of duty"
The official report from Major Kir-
by, commandant Of Getsrner field. fol-
lows:
The board found that Major ]. p.
Mitchell, r. c. A. s., while flying a
scout plane. Signal Corps. at Gerstner
field. Lake Charles. La. at about sos
a. m, on July 6, 1918, fell out Of said
airplane at an altitude Of about 500
feet, when said airplane nosed down
sharply, and was killed instantaneous
ly. Sail airplane was found about
half a mile south of hanger, total
wreck. and Major Mitchell's body was
found about 500 yards nearer.
The board also finds that death oc-
CURED In line OF duty. The accident
investigation officer reports that the
safety belt was found unbuckled and
intact. with no evidence OF any strain
having been placed upon 1t. The fire
extinguisher was found 20 yards from
the body, on line with the ship.

glide was thrown out by the peculiar
quick snap OF the scout plane when
the stick pushed too far forward.

Here's tip to use in your battle
with H. C. L. Cheese it. Not in
slangy sense, but literally. We have
had meatless, wheatless and other
less days prescribed. We have been
urged to eat corn and fish to save
wheat and meat. Why has no one
urged the use of more cheese?
In food value cheese is the equal
of most meats and superior of many.
1t is far less expensive and can be
cooked in many ways to make it
staple food. Potatoes, rice. maca-
rom, hominy and other cereals
baked Eau gratin" provide dishes
whose richness dispense with meat
accompaniment. Europeans have
long used cheese in lieu of meats.
In many sections Of Europe cheese
is served at all meals, the cheese
dish being as indispensable as our
butter dish. There the whole cheese
is placed on the table and slices are
cut as wanted. This is much more
economical than our habit of serving
it in bits.
