WESTERN CAAADA'S
CEREAL. CROP
One Of the Best Ever Harvested.

The cereal cropfof Western Canada
for lol. was Ike most valuable one
ever harvested: The returns FROM All
classes of live stock have been equally
satisfactory. The wool clip was MOI
only greater than i'm any pr"yiolls wear.
hui the price obtained was double That
OF 1916. which in turn WAS salmost
double that of the wear before.
AS was the case in 1919 and 1916.
many farmers We're able 10 pax for
their land outright Will. the proceeds
of their first years crop. Further cvi-
dence OF the prosperity Ut Western
Canada is shown by the fact that one
in every twenty of the population is
now the owner of an automobile. If
the farming community alone is taken.
1T will be found that the proportion of
automobile owners is still greater. The
bank clearingS of the leading cities of
Western Canada were consistently
higher than they were i'm The GORE
spending periods of 1916, and then they
We're higher Than the year preceding.
In Winnipeg S500,0O0.O00 more WAS
cleared in the IL months ending No
Ncmber so than i'm the same months n
year ago.
The entry of the United States into
me war has strengthened the bonds
between that country and Canada. We
are now working together for the
same ends. Those who are not fighting
are promoting q greater production of
1oodStutTS. I'm this connection Western
Canada offers a wonderful opportu-
nifty. NOT only can larger quantities;
of staple foodstutfs be produced. but
the cost of production is lower and the
remuneration greater than where land
is more expensive. notwithstanding
the fact that the price of farm prod
ucts has doubled during the past three
years. there are millions of acres of
arabic ant in Western Canada which
can still be bought at a low price.
Western Canada has an enormous
acreage prepared for seeding to wheat
in 1918. 1t is larger than in 1917. and
Will probably surpass the record area
put into crop in the year 1915. whcn
the largest crop ever known in the
West was harvested. The wear 1a1S
should also see a further increase i'm
live stock activity.
Farmers have been investing consid-
cradle sums in cattle; the high prices
secured for wool and mutton have
opened the eyes of Western farmers to
the possibilities of sheep. and such was
the demand for breeding animals last
fall that it was impossible to meet if
the campaign for greater
hog production is expected to Weld an
of between % and so per cent
in 1918.
Those who are contemplating coming
to Western Canada cannot Go better
than come carly in the spring when
they can put in a crop and harvest it
in the fall. In this way they viii he

His usual pale face was flaming

With a nod of understanding,
Ward carried the drawing to the

his pivoted machine from side to

ample. Then he refolded the nap
and returned it to Marbeau.

With a start, Marbeau pulled

All the world knows now. of

November 4, the question of her
supremacy in Morocco was settled
once for all by the treaty signed at
Berlin. When Europe learned the
terms OF that treaty, it was shaken
with amazement. For Germany
had reccded, after swearing that
she would never recede had guar
anteed to France a free hand in
Morocco, with the right to estab-
llsh a protectorate if she thought
proper;Jand in exchange for all
this received a small strip of the
French Congo! Yes, there was
one other thing she received of
which the treaty made no men
ton. When Herr Won kiderlen-
Waechter had affixed his sigma
ture, Ambassador Cambon. who
acted for France, gave him silently
an envelope sealed with a black
seal. He glanced at the signature
Of the paper it contained, and
placed it carefully in his pocket.
An hour afterwards, he handed it

An opportunity to get atleast $4,000

to carry out its provisions, which
amount will be increased to $1,000, 900
by 1923. The minimum allotment for
states is to be $4,000 year, and II is

a raid upon the Bishop Estate ii
said to be contemplated by wealth

one Of the parties interested in the
proposal being one Of the three per.
sons most conspicuous in the perpetra-
ton of the forgery Of the late Qneen
LiIiuokalani's name to doewaast
which was actually offered for probate
and thrown out Of court by the cir
cult judge.
notwithstanding the setbacks which
persons who have had designs upon
breaking trust deeds have already met,
and despite the fact that trust deed
has not yet been broken in this Terri.
tory, the raid Is contemplated, II is
reported, and the plans have been un-
derwqy for the past six. months, - =
The Bishop Estate Is the largest
in the Islands, being the estate origin
ally controlled by the late Mrs. Bernice
PauRhi Bishop, who left her entire es-
tate in trust form as an endowment
for the Bishop Museum and the Kane
hameha Schools. The estate has grown
under its trusteeship and owns lands in
every nook and corner of the Islands.
Claim cohsanguinity
The genealogy Of Mrs Bishop, to-
gether with that Of her sister, the late
Queen Emma, has many qualifications
and there are several Hawaiian resi-.
dents of the Islands who have some
relationship with her and trace their
genealogy with hers through various
blood channels to certain common
family source. There are others who
claim Relationship by certain channels
which are shadowy, and which rely
largely upon the infection or pro-
nunciation of "a name. In some
respects il is like claiming through a
genealogy which has Smith as an an
cestor when in reality the real ancestor
was Smythe.
The raid is said to contemplate a
tie-up Of all proceedings Of the Bishop
Trust through legal action by the fl
ing of suit as claimant for lands,
in which a large number Of people are
to be named asprOspeetiye heirs, quite
similar to the selection Of names
which were included In the forged
document purporting to be Queen Lii
uokalani,s last will.
1t is possible that in view Of the
exposure of the attempt to carry the
forged will through the courts that the
proposed raid on the Bishop Estate
may be postponed if not altogether
