THRIFT AND THE
FAMILY BUDGET

After a short business session at
Saturdays meeting of the Ocala Wom-
ans Club, Mrs. L. N. Green. chairman
of household economies. in a few hap
py remarks. introduced the speaker of
the afternoon, Miss Layton of the
University of Florida, who spoke on
"The Budget System in Housekeep-
ing," and handled her subject well.
A budget is simply pattern for
spending. If people plan ahead, write
down their plans and then carry them
through, they will be better able to
make their incomes cover their living
expenses. No business can be run sue
cessfully withoM a budget. Neither
can homes. tho homes are infinitely
more than business concerns. If a
husband spends eight to ten hours a
day earning the money it is only log
ical that the wife should spend eight
to ten minutes day planning the ex.
renditure. Budgets are the things
that make dreams come true if one
has courage to forge ahead when there
is some good to attain. DIR. Frank
Crane says thrift implies budget.
Spending, saving and giving arr
the three uses of money. All of these
can be controlled by the budget anC
made more interesting. more benefi
cial, better balanced, and after it j.
al over, one is better satisfied be
cause he will know that he did tn,
best he could.
There are two things that must b.
reckoned with in making a budget
first, the size of the income, and sec
end, the standard of living of tn
person or family. Whether a persol
has an income of $500 or $4,000 /;

WINNIPEG ENJOYS
AMAZING GROWTH
Canadian City Boasts POpula-
= tion of 1864 and Assessed
Valuation of $236,97O,410.

WINNIPEG. Man, April 10
Winnipeg has a population of 1885,
947. and an assessed property val
uation of. s2sS.s7O,41O. according to
the latest compilation Of the city
assessment department.
Few cities on the continent have
had a more rapid growth. In 1870
it was a struggling village of BIS
people, under the walls of Fort
Garry, a Hudson's Bay Company
trading post. 1t had 1859 inhatd-
tants when it was incorporated in
1873. Itr was connected by rail-
way with st. Paul in 1878. The
Canadian Pacifi0s transcontinental
line was built through in 1886.
The Red River colonists. brought
in from Scotland by Lord Selkirk,
of the Hudson's Bay Company,
planted their first wheat in 1912.
This was the beginning of farming
in Western Canada. The Hudson's
Bay Company then owned practi-
cally albwestern Canada in fee
simple under charter rights grant,
ed by Charles II. in 1870. It sur
rendered its sovereignty to Can
ada in 1870, and is now fast clos
ing out to settlers the farming
lands that formed part of it's old
empire. Fort Garry, which for
years was the company's seat of
power, now known as Winnipeg.
Is still the metropolis of Western
Canada. the worlds greatest wheat
csnter and the. third city of the
Dominion. while the prairie prov
inces are among the richest grain
producing regions In the world.

OCCUPIED LAND
+, VALUES SHOW RISE
Ontar.o Reports Average at
$4S Per Acre at Close of
: Past Year.

OTTAWA, On. April 1o.-The
value of occupied farm lands
throughout Canada rose 50 an acre
last year. IT averaged SIS an acre
at the close OF 1920 as compared
with s46 y 1919. according to
recent report of the Dominion Bu-
reau of Statistics. Per acre values
in the provinces were: British Co
lumbia, s175; Ontario and Quebec,
$40; Prince Edward Island, $50;
Nova Scotia. s43: Manitoba. $50;
New Brunswick, s33; Saskatchewan
and Alberta, $50.
The fact that British Columbia
land is the highest priced is ex-
planned by the extensive acreage
devoted to small fruits and or
chards in the southern part of the
province and on Vancouver Island
which with the comparatively small
area under settlement, increases
the average. Some wonderful val
leys like the Bulkley and the Ne
chako along the Grand Trunk Pa
cific Railway, in the, central part
of the province, have only recently
begun to receive the tide Of home
seekers.
Ontario and Quebec have been
settled for centuries. The farms
are medium sized or small, as a
rule, and much OF the land has
been intensively cultivated. Prince
Edward Islands high average is in
fiuenced by the large holdings de-
voted to silver fox farming. 1t il
the original home of fox farming
and millions of dollars are devoted
to this profitable industry.
The rich farming country of Red
River Valley, scene of the hrs'
agricultural development in West
ern Canada. brings up the average
of Manitoba. Saskatchewan and
Alberta include. some of the bssi
farming land in Canada and rank
among the richest wheat producing
regions on the globe, but vast areas
remain unsettled. Land in the best
developed parts OF these province:
is valued at $500 and more an acre

IMPORTS FOR THE ! MONTHS BINDING JANUARY 81

Comparing imports for the seven
months ending in 1921 with the ear
Iier periods, it is seen first that there
has been an enormous increase in
the imports of wheat and wheat
-four. This. of course. has come al
most entirely from Canada, which
country had a very large crop last
year. In terms of grain the imports
of wheat and wheat fourth the past
seven months were 41,4s2.00O bush
els compared to 2.765,000- bushels
last year. 1t would seem that some
thing ought to be done to protect
the farmer from this big importa-
ton. but IL we look at the other side
Of the question, we find that we
have exported more wheat since the
last Of July than we have ever done
before in similar period of time.
The total exports of wheat and
wheat flour are equivalent to 233,-
$4,000 bushels in the seven months
ending this year compared to 49,
O39,0O0 bushels last year and 161,-
$4,000 bushels the year before. Our
heavy imports therefore have only
served to offset our exports. II we
had not imported Canadian wheat
we could not have exported the same
anu Ndndoa Hdu SOFA
it to US, she would have exported it
direct to Europe, thus affecting the
world market to the same degree.
An embargo tariff on wheat will
give us the ill will of Canada with
out bringing about any change in
the returns to our farmers.
Furthermore, so or So per cent Of
the marketable wheat from last
years crop has already passed out
of the farmers hands. Any increase
in price would not affect his returns
for this crop, but would raise the
profts of the middleman and the
miller.
The proposed emergency act, ac-
cording to present plans, would run
for six months or. il it is passed

ber. The new crop year for wheat

SCIENCE HELPING
LIVESTOCK TRADE
Converts Cheapest Feeds Into
Marketable Meat, Declares
Canadian University.

CALGARY, Alberta, April 10
Science is converting the cheapest
feeds into marketable livestock. In
a series of remarkable tests ex-
perts of the University of Alberta
are working out new menus for
beef and dairy cattle that promise
to revolutionize livestock feeding
and save millions to breeders and
farmers. When the tests, which
have attracted international at
tention, are completed, it will have
been determined precisely the type
of silage, grain or hay that will
bring best results from poor, me-
dunn and good types of cattle.
There are ten different sets, each
comprising different types of ami
mails Each set Is under a specific
diet. So far those subjected to
sunflower feedings have made the
most pronounced gains. Use OF
sunfiowers for silage is of recent
origin. Millions of sunfiowers fell
before the knives of the mowers
last autumn in the most gorgeous
crop ever harvested in Western
Canada, and immense areas will be
planted this year. The nutritive
value. according to the university
experts, is equal to that of corn
fodder.
Tests of the type now in prog
ress are largely responsible for
