CANADIANS ARE BUYING
MANY AUTOMOBILES

REGINA, Sasl., Nov. ii. N. s.
Figures published by the provisional
government show that the number of
automobiles owned in Saskatchewan
in 1920 was 6O,S25, as compared with
5000 in 1919 and 46,SSO in 1918.
This is a remarkable showing when it
is considered that in 1908 the total
number of motor vehicles of all de-
.scriptions in the province was only
seventy four.
This rapid increase in the number
of automobiles is attributed to the
rapid settlement of the province and
the prosperity achieved by the set
tiers in farm homes. in this country
where farms are often paid for bs a
single crop, more than half the auto
mobiles are owned by farmers.

TTNCLE SANS soil doctors are
" finding new ways to prolong
human and animal life. Their
aim now is to bring about the more
extensive use of soil ingredients
that will afford maximum of life
giving properties. Scientific proof
that lime mixed in the soil not only
results in more abundant agricul-
ture, but more healthfuI products,
has evoked warm support from Sec
retary of Agriculture Wallace and
his corps of experts. Bulletins urg-
ing the more general use of lime in
soil treatment, are being spread
broadcast by the Government. De-
partment officials in their studies
are convinced that lime is needed by
animals as well as by plants.
When their attention was drawn
to the great mortality among ami
mails of all classes last year from
disease and exposure, it was their
conclusion that pastures upon which
animals grazed, because of lack in
nourishment, may have contributed
greatly to this death rate. officials
of the Department declared that
lime is essential to the full growth
and healthful pastures for animals.
Lime, they said, improves the quail
ity and variety of grasses and
clovers. Not only are the grasses
and clovers more abundant on lime
treated soils. but they are grown in
greater profusion.

Craze on pastures which have lib
eral proportion of lime, officials said.
The Nations children of tender
years depend mainly upon good
milk. The soil doctors, therefore,
are advocates of better soil as a
means of producing better plant
food to strengthen the dairy herds.
Secretary Hoover, the Nations
war time food chief, is great advo-
cate of the value of milk in diet,
especially for children. Milk con-
tains probably more lime than any
other food. Children as well as the
grown-ups, officials said, need lime
in their diet because it is a great
bone builder and big factor in
revitalizing blood and tissues of the
human system.
1t was asserted, therefore, to be
of the highest Importance to the
health of, the people that the great
agricultural producing interests of
the Nation employ larger quantities
of lime upon their lands. 1t was
further said. that most farmers look
beyond their own horizon and have
the interest and welfare of their
communities at heart, and of their
beyond their own borders.
In the improvement of the yielding
power of soils and of the quality of
crops, agricultural officials have
