Less than half a mile to the south

Roman fortress of Segontium. The
castle IL a grim and lordly pile plant

There are few more obscure periods
IN the history Of Wales than that of
the Roman occupation, and 1t Is not
to be expected that much light will be
thrown upon 1t by literary records.

EATONIC Users
DO This Get the
Greatest Benefits

Chicago, nl.-Thousands Of reports
from people all over the U. s. who
have tested Eatonic, show the greatest
benefits are obtained by using 1t for a
few weeks, taking one or two tablets
after each meal.
Eatonic users know that 1t stops
BeIching, Bloatlng, 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 1t Is all removed, the sufferer gets
well, feels f1ne-full Of life and pep.
II you have been taking an Eatonlc
now and then, be sure and take 1t regu-
larry 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.

PLENTY NEXT DOOR"
Record Harvest Predicted for
Canada.

After having made careful sur
vey of the wheat producing area of
the United States, experts whose bust
ness 1t is to keep the people informed
on the acreage sown to foodstuffs
state that this year there will be
falling off In the wheat production In
the States, due TO a considerably less
area cultivated The opinion of these
experts Is thai the decrease will be
several hundred million bushels of
wheat less than In previous years,
which accordina 10 past experience
will be scarcely sufficient to meet the
requirements az he demands of the
people of this couatry.
In Canada, however. the situation
Is different. Reliable reports on the
crop situation throughout Western
Canada are such as to create the mos.
substantial optimism. Never before
we're the prospects so encouraging for
a bumper harvest. 1t Is predicted
that the yield this year will be even
greater than in 1915. the year Of the
record harvest In Canada, when the
total production was 393,542,60O
bushels. Not only il the wheat looking
excellent, hut the same is true OF oats,
barley and fax, of which a greatly
Increased acreage has been sown In
the great grain producing provinces Of
Canada.
The rains that have fallen recently
have come at the right time to stimu-
late growth and there is now consider
able moisture in the ground. With
the world generally facing a shortage
of wheat and a continued heavy de-
mand for it. the price is likely to be
maintained at the present high figure.
In many districts corn has been more
extensively planted than In previous
years and 1t is looking remarkably
we'll. Many settlers from the United
States who came to Western Canada
and bought improved farms In the
early spring have every prospect OF
a crop yield that will give them re-
turn sufficiently large. after paying
all current expenses, to pay OF large
part of their capital investment.
Livestock is in excellent condition
everywhere. the rains having induced
q good growth of grass.-Advertise-

could not summon up courage to speak.

SCOUT FIRST AID SAVES LIFE.

Theodore f. Curtis Of Troop %, Salt
Lake City, probably saved the life of
Henry G. Kratz in Cottonwood Canyon,
when all the fingers on his left hand
and the thumb on his right were blown
Off by the explosion Of a giant dyna-
mite cap which he had found lying
near where miners had been blasting.
Krantz was taken into a nearby scout
camp. w. d. Wood, scoutmaster, re-
ports: Both hands were bleeding pro-
fusely. Young Curtis applied first aid
and bandaged the two torn hands so
skillfully that the hospital physician
sent note congratulating the boy on
the thoroughness~of- his timely treat
ment. which perhaps saved Krantz's
life"

tons are In progress.
The purchasers of the areas are
willing that all finds shall be depos-
tied in museum at Carnarvon IL a
suitable building can be provided, on
the condition that the exhibition. care

The Prince of Wales.
First among those who are taking
an interest in the excavation of Sc
gontium may be mentioned the price
of Wales. Before he left England on
his tour Of Australia and New Zea-
land he had explained to him the
whole scheme. and he expressed his
warm approval of the work and the
objects which the committee has in
view. 1t was only natural that he
should do so, for Segontium lies
within half mile of Carnarvon cas-
tie, where his investiture as prince Of
Wales took place shortly before the
war. In Queen EleanOr's gateway.
King George presented his son to, the
assembled multitude.
The Cambrian Archaeological as
ISOLATION slgnified its appreciation of
the Importance Of the undertaking at
its last general meeting, and its ex-
cavation committee has recommended
an initial grant of $3.50 to head the
list Of subscriptions. An annual in
term report Of the excavations will
appear In "ArchaeOlogia Cambrensis."
Active support has also come Prom the
Society of Antiquaries, and it is pro-
posed to solicit the help and influence
OF the Smithsonian institution Of the
United States Of America. The com
bined appeal to the pocket and imag.
nation of the scientific archaeolo-
gist ought not to fall on deaf ears.
While archaeologists have been
making history during the war in the
near East, archaeology, like most Of
the more serious pleasures of life, has
been alternating. Now IL Is begin
ming to awake and realize how much
lost time has to be made up, and one
of the first tasks to hand Is the ex-
cavation Of the Roman fortress OF
Segontium, by which, 1t is hoped,
much light may be thrown on one of
the darkest pages Of British history,
on the history, indeed. Of all races Of
British origin.
