creating wider markets the railways
are doing more than any other agency
can do for Western Canada and the
country as whole. The products Of
tho farms, which are now readily mar
keted, and the vast train of employ
ment that follows the enlargement of
the farming industry, is creating new
agricultural centers and causing towns
and cities of importance to grow all
along its lines.
An admirable system of agricultur-
al instruction has been developed
through the efforts of the Dominion
government and the various provin-
cial Departments of Agriculture. This
forms part of the educational system
of Western Canada and is doing much
for all branches of agriculture. Elk
perimental farms have been estab-
lished at various points in the prov
inces, which have done wonders in de-
veloping improved methods of farm
ing.
The result has been great awaken
ing to the necessity of better methods
Of tillage scientific stock raising and
dairying. Farmers are beginning to
realize that to get what they are en-
titled to out of the land, they must
adopt scientific methods. and as a re-
suit, careful seed selection, proper ro-
tation and summer fallow is the order
Of the day. Under the favorable con-
ditions generally anticipated, prospects
point to an all round increase in pro-
duction that will leave a great deal
of money in the hands of the western
farmer this year, and prosperity for
Western Canada as a whole. 1t will be
years before Europe will make up ar
rears in agricultural production
caused by the enforced idleness and
wholesale destruction, and Western
Canada will play big part in filling
the void.
The result of the continued shortage
in cattle, the future price Of beef and
the solution of the perplexing problem
of feeding the world are vital ques-
tlons uppermost in the minds of many
thinking people today.
There is no doubt that the wide
acres of Western Canada can, and WILL
he made to play an important part in
bringing about proper balance in
supply and demand. In the northern
parts Of Manitoba and Saskatchewan
and in Alberta are many thousands
of acres of the richest pasture in the
world, well watered and treated by the
Sunniest of climates. These rolling
hills for the greater part are still I'M
peopled and untrodden by the hoofs
of domestic animals.
One of the causes assigned for the
decline in stock-raising is the reduc-
ton in the areas available for grazing
on account of so many big ranches be-
ing converted into farms. Expert
ments conducted at Vermilion, AL
berta, would rather go to show that
the old grazing grounds were too large,
and that the feeding is really better
when the animal is confined to a com
paratively limited area. providing the
paSturage is of the right kind and
there is plenty of water.-Advertise-

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are eX-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent~ druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation | have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers SwampRoot is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle of
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address

Among the interesting developments
of the week was the dispute between
China and Japan relating to the dis
position Of Shantung province and
Tsingtao and in general the conces-
sions which China had been forced TO
grant to Germany. These, ii appears,
Japan is trying to obtain for herself,
and China relies on the peace confer
ence for protection. The council Of the
five great powers asked that all secret
agreements made by Japan and China
with each other and other nations
since the beginning Of the war be sub
mitted to II. This was In accord with
the desires Of the Chinese and the
japanese government complied with
the demand.
The japanese threw another small
monkeywrench into the machinery by
the fiat statement that they intended
to hang onto the Caroline and Mar
shall islands, which they took from
Germany Notwithstanding the ex.
pressed will of the peace conference
that all the captured colonies should
be governed by mandatories of the
League of Nations. The outcome of
this is uncertain.

their national assembly at Wemar be-
came more arrogant than ever. Their
attitude was accurately reflected by
Ebert who, in his speech accepting the
Office, said: I'VE shall combat dom
ination by force to the utmost, from
whatever direction it may come. We
wish to found our state only on the
basis of right and on our freedom to

Matthias Erzberger before meeting

tension of the armistlce, conferred

they determined that he should de-
mand that the allies recognize the new
German government
All this, and the fact that the enemy
countries were preserving enough war
quickly an army of 100000 men, had
full effect on the supreme war coun-
ell when it decided on conditions OF
renewal of the armiStice. The mill
tary members and the newly added
economic members agreed on the
terms, which are designed to place
Germany in such a situation that she
cannot renew military operations. The
German authorities were called on to
furnish full information of the war
material of all kinds in their posses
sion. The council also decided ac-
cording to one correspondent ito make
Germany realize that we are the con-
querOrs and that it Is not a white
peace that we are seeking to impose
on her"
According to reliable information
the armistice is renewed for a very
brief time, the allies reserving the
right to suspend it if Germany fails
TO carry out the new clauses, which in
clude the cessation of hostilities
against the Poles. Meanwhile spe-
cial commission is to draw up arns-
tice terms to last until the peace
treaty is signed. These terms will
provide for the rehabilitation Of the
German army and the disarmament of
the nation under the supervision of the
allies. The German government, It
was said, was given to understand
plainly that If it was recalcitrant the
resumption of the war by the allies
was by no means out of the question.
The firm attitude of the supreme war
council possibly was due in some
measure to an impressive speech by
Premier Clemenceau in which he
showed the council the necessity Of
taking all precautions against the
treacherous Huns. In this ne was sup
ported by President Wilson.

France, which, since the outbreak of
the great war, justly considers herself
an outpost nation guarding a frontier
Vt civilization, strongly urged the crea-
ion of an immediate international
army and navy to enforce the rulings
of the society of nations. Leon Bour-
geois argued earnestly for the con
stitution of such a force and for the
placing of it in France until all danger
Of an attack by Germany was at an
end. This was opposed, especially by
American and British representatives,
who showed that it was contrary to the
constitutions of their countries. The
long discussion ended in an agreement
that if a country should be attacked,
In violation of the rules of the league,
the attacked country would employ
her military forces as covering

demonstrated that in a sudden shock
attack a nation can suffer immense
damage before her allies can mobilize
their forces and transport them to the
scene of conflict. This is just what
France fears will happen again with
Germany again as the aggressor, and
her alarm, though it may be as fool
ish as some correspondents think 1t,
will not be allayed until or unless the
allies render the Huns miltarlly i'm

signed. There is growing feeling in
Paris that the American and British
delegates are disposed to be too lenl-

adopt the insidious claim of the Ger
