THRIFT
BY William T. Budd.

Entirely too large a proportion OF

either inconvenience or undue sacrifice,
would be 50 startling convincing that
everyone would see the immense Dene-

EATONIC Users
DO This Get the
Greatest Benefits

Chicago, Ill.-Thousands of reports
from people all over the U. S. who
have tested eatonic, show the greatest
benefits are obtained by using it for a
few weeks, taking one or two tablets
after each meal.
Eatonic users know that 1t stops
Belching, Bloating, Heartburn, and
Stomach Miseries quickly, but the
really lasting benefits are obtained by
using eatonic long enough to take the
harmful excess acids and gases entire
ly out Of the system. This requires a
little time, for eatonic takes up the
excess acidity and poisons and carries
them out Of the body and of course,
when it is all removed, the sufferer gets
well, feels fine-full of life and pep.
If you have been taking an eatonic
now and then, be sure and take it regu-
larly for time and obtain all of these
wonderful benefits. Please speak to
your druggist about this so that he can
tell others that need this help. Adv.

Edwards was offered a pardon by
Governor Colquitt several years ago,
and again by Governor Ferguson, upon
petition of his relatives. In both In
stances Edwards refused the pardon,
on the ground that he had not yet
suffered enough for the crime he had
committed. 1t was only few days
ago that he arrived at the conclusion
that he had atoned for the deed, and
he thereupon wrote Governor Hobby,
who granted the pardon.
During the time that Edwards was

leased the land for a big price when

This probably as much as anything
else will give some idea of the state
of mind of the Western Canada farm
er, as he watches the tally from the
thrashng machine while his wheat is
being carried TO the elevator.
From all sections of the country,
the most optimistic reports are re-
ceived, the local and city papers are
filled with reports from twenty to thir-
ty bushels of wheat to the acre, while
in some places oats are showing a rec
ord of as high as 30 bushels to the
acre.
Referring to Saskatchewan. it is con-
fidently expected that the wheat yield
will be nearly 125 million bushels
Heavy rains which fell in districts that
did not promise so well in July, had
greatly improved the prospects there,
and there is no question that paying
yields will be produced. The yields
in the eastern part of the province
may not show to the advantage that
will those of the western part, but
too much cannot be said of this, for it
is the results as they come from the
machine, and often these prove happily
deceptive.
There is now every reason to believe
that the wheat crop of the three prai-
rie provinces will approach $50 mil
lion bushels.
xx.;n
bushels that had been looked for. The
average yield will be considerably
higher than it has been in the province
in any of the last four years.
The Department of Agriculture in
recent report gave the opinion that it
cannot fall below twenty-five bushels
to the acre, and that it might easily
pass the twenty-five bushel mark.
Most of the wheat in the province
when the report was written, stood
well up to three feet high, and on
some fields was still higher. The re-
port goes on that in parts of South
crn Alberta forty and fifty bushels to
the acre yields will not be uncommon,
while there will he a good many yields
of from thirty 10 thirty-five bushels
to the acre.
In the northwest part Of the prov
ince, in the country surrounding Bat
tleford and adjacent to the Canadian
National Railway line to LlOydminster,
and south the crops are excellent and
the yield will be heavy.
A larger than average wheat crop
is being thrashed in Manitoba. 1t has
been estimated that the total yield
of the three provinces will not be less
than 225,000,000 bushels, and it may
be that somewhere between 250,000,-
600 and 3OO,OOOOOO bushels will be the
final figure.
Oats is a good crop in all three
provinces. This crop has also grown
rapidly during the last two or three
weeks. Excepting from those fields
which were sown late for green feed,
the yield will be heavy and the grain
excellent Barley and rye are above
the average. There was sufficient help
to harvest the rop.-Advertlsement.
