FRIES Taken at international Live
stock Exposition Show What Land
is Capable of Producing.

forty years ago the first sale was
inade OF lands acquired by the Cana
oian Pacl1c railway. This is but
snort span in the lives of many, and
there are those who look back upon
that period as it being but of yester-
Jay. Yet when one glances back it is
10 marvel at the accomplishments of
that period. One Of the most striking
VI these Is the progress that has been
hade In Western Canada since that
Jay, forty years ago, when an official
OF the railway placed his signature to
Ine document that gave possession to
the new owner of a section of land.
Ihis was the first sign of the wealth
that In time would be added TO the
wealth. of the world in forty years,
thls single section of land being the
Dase upon which the future would be
Dulit. The potential wealth was but
III embryo; today it is a big, living
ieaiity. Among the many things that
reveal this, may be seen the winnings
maze by Western Canada exhibitors at
the international Live Stock show held
IN Chicago in 1921. These were SO
marked in their number as to give to
the World-the American world-a
splendid idea Of the excellence of the
products of the farms of the new but
rapidly developing country lying to the

and Percheron and Clydesdale horses.
An Alberta-bred heifer got fourth place
in class of eighteen outstanding in
dividuals. In grain, Alberta made sim
ply an astounding record, securing the
sweepstakes for oats, and eight or nine
prizes before even the American eX-
hibitors secured a placing, and while
the grand championship for wheat
went to Montana, the prairie provinces
took % out of % possible placings.
The first prize for alfalfa seed was
awarded for seed grown at Brooks,
Alberta, in competition with 43 entries.
Alfalfa-g growing in Western Canada
has been increasing by leaps and
bounds, and this victory will give it
and the dairy industry, which is al
ways linked with it, 4 further impetus. |

Hogan, but something went wrong
with one of TRUTHS hands and the
bout was declared off.
Then in the natural course of
events Jimmie drifted to a small ad-
joining town, and there became ac-
quainted with a man and his wife, As
days went by Jimmie showed a de-
cided interest in the woman and less
interest in her husband.
Not more than four weeks ago he
appeared at the office of Sheriff
Louis A. Allen, and confessed his in
terest in the woman, and demanded
that the sheriff arrest the husband
on a trumped-up charge, so that he
and the woman could leave the couh
try.
About this time there came into
TRUTHS strange career another
youth, Miami lad whose life inI
many respects was similar to that of
Truitt.

Iboys of the neighborhood envied
him his chances. He attended school
at Lemon City and was fairly adept
pupil, although he was not as intel
|ligent as might be expected In fact,
he appeared mentally deficient in
some respects. Time went on and
he passed through school, without
getting into any more trouble than
the usual school boy.
Jimmy Truitt, now classed by his
fellow men as a pirate, first came
into public view when about 10, when
he passed a number of worthless
checks and took charge of motor
cycle belonging to another. But the
lesson was not impressive and before
long Jimmie was in trouble again.
Then the United States navy beck
oned and Jimmie responded to the
call, and for the next four years his
friends and acquaintance contem-
plated the changes that were no /
doubt taking place, to make a man
out of him" But these things never
materialized, as his acquaintance !
learned when he returned to Miami
at the conclusion of the world war,
after his four years in the navy.
One night Truit, with others, went
to a grove with automobiles and fill
ed the machines with fruit and sold
it. L

GREETED back in his brain, the idea that
the William H. Albury would provide
suitable victim to a well arranged
plot. He mentioned the fact to an
acquaintance. He needed money for
and to obtain the woman he
desired. Yet Jimmie Truitt was not
enough, or possessed suf-

such an undertaking.

NIOW that June is not far away, N the shops are all showing fine underthings, or the materials for mak ing them, for brides-to-be; and they are entitled to point with pride to the quality and character of this years offerings. Designs are simple and practical, materials fine and beautiful. Trimmings are not at all lavishly used, but present themselves with flavor of refinement, which has not been ex- celled; with drawnwork, hemstitching, faggoting, infinitesimal tuks and deli cate embroidery, all done by hand.
 In materials, crepe de chine, chiffon cloth, handkerchief linen, fine batiste predOminate and the color favored is rose pink, which is even a little more liked than white Other colors are shown, but none of them have become rivals of pink or white, except among negligees and dressing jackets or bed jackets. These select what they will in color and their choice falls upon many a flower-like hue in georgette, satin, crepe de chine, with cream colored lace and ribbon flowers bear ing them company.

Two combinations, in which knick- erbOckers take the place of the usual short petticoats, are among the under silks that entice the bride, to add the most up-to-date of garments to her trousseau. In one of these the bodice is decorated with embroidered flow- CTS and the knickers with a band of lace insertion about the knees, with little bows of narrow ribbon for en- bellishment. In the other, the knick- CTS are plain and the bodice enriched by band of filet lace at the top. Shoulder straps of satin ribbon are almost universal in combinations.
 Fine val lace is not outrivaled, but has competitors in net bandings and borders, which make very new deco ration for petticoats of crepe de chine., Applique flowers, cut out of silk, anal outline embroidery find the net their| ideal background.

\ LWAYS there are pretty new fur A bellows at the ribbon counter with which to tempt a frail, feminine love of finery Many of these are too small to be well represented by photo graphs, but they coax as many dol lars out of fair admirers as their larger rivals, and are entitled to hon. orable mention. They include an end less variety in lingerie bows and ros- cites. ribbon flowers, sachets, pow der bags, corsage flowers, garters, sleeve bands, and other little accessor- ies. The new feature in these famil- far luXuries for this season is the in- troduction of very narrow ribbon in the making of flowers, fiowerlike ros- cites, bows and ornaments.
 Bags and sashes or girdles still oc- cupy the places of first importance at the ribbon counter. Boudoir caps have always depended upon ribbons to do their cheerful part in their making, and few examples of these have been selected from late arrivals, for illus tration here. Two very handsome bags, shaped to harmonize with their mOuntings, show rich brocaded ribbons in graceful developments One or them employs plain satin ribbon with the brocade, and both have plain satin

 One of the new saShes with loops at each side and simple knot at the back is made of heavy satin, two toned ribbon. Little flowers of mar row ribbons at the base of the loops are the straws that show the direction of the wind in ribbon sashes. Nearly all of them are elaborated with ribbon flowers far more lavishly than in the example pictured.
 Two new bOudoir caps reveal that there is still something new under the sun in these fiattering pieces of head wear. They do their best to start the day or end it right, with dainty laces and gay ribbon substituting for coiffure. One of them is the anus ing stocking cap model of lace, with three narrow ribbon frills about the face and a tassel, made of baby rib bon, dangling from it's poipt The other employs wide, softkAtifi rib bon and lace to make it and hang ing loops and little foweiA o baby ribbon at each side for ornaments.
