Kings Order for Roundup 10 Signal
for outpourin0 OF Natives to
See BIG Show.

When a king of Siam finds that the
stock of tame elephants in the gov
ernment stables is getting low, he
sends out an edict that royal ele-
phant hunt will take place. This or
der is received joyfully throughout
Siam, for a royal elephant hunt il
enough of a spectacle to induce peo-
pie from all over Siam to come to
Ayutha, where the animals are to be
brought when captured.
Days, sometimes weeks, are required
to locate and surround the herds to
be captured. Then they are skillfully
driven in the direction Of Ayutha. So
slowly do the great beasts travel that
four or five miles is sometimes the
daily rate of advance. When Ayutha
IS reached the herd is driven into q
corral, which is a large walled-in court,
and here it is kept until the desirable
beasts are selected. The rest are then
allowed to wander back to their jungle
home.
The tanning of the animals retained
takes several days and is the climax
to the spectacle. Crowds gather to
hear the untamed elephants trumpet
their anger at being caught and to
watch their clumsy struggle against
mastery by the native trainers.-Do-

CANADIAN FARMER
IS WHEAT WIZARD
SeaQer Wheeler Wins World Prize
for Spring Wheat Five Times.
ENTERS CONTEST AGAIN
Comes to Kansas City Exposition a
Guest Of Province Of Saskatche-
wan-Depends on Seed SeIee-
ton and TiIIage.

winnipeg, Canaoa. - Sea0er
Wheeler, is again competing for
the world wheat prize, and this
time he goes to tho Kansas City
exposition az guest Of the province
Of Saskatchewan.
This plain farmer with no titles
before and no degrees after his
name, has won the world prize for
spring wheat no less than five
times.
He has produced not only the
best wheat but he has solved the
problems Of drouth area farming
to such an extent that he can
raise 40 bushels to the acre when
his nei9hbors are sometimes lucky
to get 8. He has gotten this yield
with only 8 inches Of rainfall and
In wet years has obtained AZ high
az 81 bushels Of wheat and 13o
bushels Of oats per acre.
The secrets of his success as he
describes In his book "Profitable Grain
Growing" are careful selection of seed
and tillage methods which make the
parched land capable Of raising crops.
Born on Isle Of Wight.
Seager Wheeler was born on the
Isle of Wight in 1869. His home was
on the seashore, where many inter.
esting events had taken place. When
he was boy he often dug out Of the

ing relics of the time when the Ar.
mada sailed to England and pirates
visited its shores. His one great am.
bition was to be a sailor, and no mat.
ter how many terrible accidents hap
pened to ships, he did not change his
ambition the least bit. He graduated
at the early age of II from the Ma
tional school.
After he had graduated from the
National school he started to work
for w. H. Smith & Sons, owners Of q
chain of newstands. He tried to
get into the navy but was told that
he was an inch too short up and down
and an inch too short around. He
received a letter from his uncle in
Canada telling him about the horrible
Indians, bears and wolves which
would devour or kill the leople II
they caught them. With the receipt
of this letter his ambition changed
from that of a sailor to that Of a
farmer in Canada. As soon as he
could get passage on ship he came
to Canada.
Seager Wheeler's uncle lived In q
log house with roof Of sods. It
stood on the bank Of the Sasatche-
wan river at Clark's Crossing near
Saskatoon, Sask.
Becomes Homesteader.
The first harvest at which he helped
was 80 acres of wheat. He and an
other man cut 1t with cradles and
tied the sheaves by hand. After two
years of farm labor, Seager Wheeler
went to Moose Jaw to work at con.
struction work on the c. p. R., but
finding this not to his taste, he went
back to Clark's Crossing and took up
. homestead on the Saskatchewan
river. From the first he picked his
seed grain by hand. He heard Of some
land near Rosthsrn that was offered
for sale by the G. p. R. He bought
It at s. an acre and moved there. He
grew Red Fife wheat ut first, and

earlier and have the same good mill
ing qualities as the Red Fife.
He went thru his crop year after
year, selecting the best and earliest
heads. He was very energetic, for he
worked in the fields all day and spent
half the nights in selecting kernels
and writing down comparisons and
data. Other farmers who observed
how he put in his time thought that
he was little bit ''off." Many times
he was greatly in danger of losing
his farm, but his livestock saved him.
BY this time he had given up trying
to grow Red Fife and had turned his
attention to Preston wheat. He was
very much pleased with it, as it ma
tured much earlier than Red Fife.
First Exhibit Winner.
L. H. Newman, secretary OF the
Canadian Seed Growers association,
paid him a visit in 1907 and showed
Seager Wheeler easier and more ef-
fective methods of selecting and rails
ing grain. The ordinary Preston wheat
was not fixed to a distinct type, SO he
separated the different strains by
hand.
In 1911 he entered his first exhibit
at Regina and won several prizes.
The same year DR.. Saunders sent him
five pounds Of Marquis wheat. In the
fall he selected the best two bushels
Of his wheat and entered them In the
New York Land Show. He won the
1000 in gold offered by the c. p. R.,
for the best spring wheat grown on
the continent. From now on he had
no peace; reporters, photographers
and special writer's swarmed around
his farm; letters and kilograms of
congratulation poured in from all quar-
tiers.
It was In 1916 when his greatest
misfortune took place. He had just
enough seed left to start over again,
but In q few years he was getting along
better than ever The whole secret OF
his success is In selecting good seed
and tilling the land properly.

TRACTOR SHOWS DECLINE

The attendance of farmers was very
small this summer at both the national
tractor demonstration at Wichita, Kan
sas, and the regional demonstration at
Aberdeen, South Dakota. A good many
tractor manufacturers have declared
that Aberdeen was the last big DEM
onstration for them. It seems that in
the middle west tractors have become
so common that demonstrations no
longer draw from q wide territory.
At least the manufacturers attribute
the declining interest of farmers Tn
big tractor demonstrations to this fac
tor rather than to . lack OF interest
in power farming. A number Of trac.
tor manufacturers favor numerous To-
cal demonstrations, instead Of . few
big ones.-Nebraska Union Farmer.
