Chilean Volcanic Disturbances.

The eruptionS in Chile last Decem- Der were attributed to the volcanoes of Caulle and Rinehua. They were accompanied by violent earthquakes and it was stated that deep crevices had formed in the mountain sides, from which steam was pouring. Enormous damage was caused to grazing lands on the Argentine side of the frontier, which for 30 leagues was covered with cinders and volcanic ashes from the erupting peaks, which swept across Argentina, obscuring the sun. Ashes were reported to have fallen all the way across to the At lantic ocean.

Burned Forests Build No Homes.

Denver--Every year forest fires in the United States destroy or damage sufficient timber to build houses for the entire population of a city the size of Washington. D C.; New Orleans, La-; Denver. Colo; or San Francisco, Calif., according to statement just is sued by the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, through Safeguarding America Against Fire" the official bulletin of the National Board of Fire Underwrit- CTS. The area burned over each year, il is said. is equal to a strip ten miles wide reaching from New York City to Denver, Colo. The publication directs attention to the fact that fifteen years ago the bulk of public sentiment against forest fires was in the East. Today if is iD the West, where 61 per cent of the remaining timber supply of the country is located. Over S1,OOO,- GOO acres of forest land that were for merly covered with timber are logged off or burned and completely denuded of tree growth The solution of for estry problems, experts say, lies large ly in fire prevention and reforestation.

CROPS AND PROFIT
PROBLEMS JUST NOW PRESS
 ING ON AGRICULTURlSTS
Farmer on Low-Priced, Fertile Lands, Still to Be Had, Is In Best
 Possible Position.

The economic problems connected
 with the advantageous marketing of
 farm crops and the financing of the
 movement of those crops are pressing
 upon agriculture most severely. They
 will be solved, however, and while
 that solution is being worked out 1t
 Is simply good sense on the farmers
 part to make his efforts toward pro-
 ductiOn tell to the very maximum, as
 best carrying him through the period
 of depression and hard times and placing him in the best position to take the greatest possible advantage
 of the better times to come. We may repeat that the cheapest farm crop, whether from fields or from live stock, Is almost invariably the largest crop which can be obtained. Or in other words, the greater the crop, the greater the net profit. To attain such crops and to place himself in the ad- vantageous position referred to above, the farmer must study, and must apply the results of his study to such prob lens as soil fertility, it's conservation and increase; soil moisture, its con- trol; cultural methods, suitable and productive varieties, etc., etc.
 P The question is how can you best accomplish and secure these things? OdQ they De QOn0 on nlSu-pTlC6O ldHQS, by paying high rents, with the prices you get for your produce no greater than may be had from that grown and raised on much cheaper lands, whose production is fully as great as that of the hfgh-priced lands? The answer is unquestionably in favor of the 1Ow-priced lands, when they are selected because of their soil fertility and the other requirements necessary. It is not the purpose here to point out merely that the lands of Western Canada would prove a splendid and ready solution, but to emphasize the fact that in order to overcome your present difficulty, to remove some of the burden that you are 1aboring un- der, you must secure some line of cheaper operation, whether it be re- moval to other parts in your own country where such opportunity may offer, or take advantage of that which Western Canada affords.
 For information regarding these apply to any Canadian aPeQt,-AdvertiSeme
