GATHER IN WHEAT
Farmers of Western Canada Re-
ioice at Harvest.
Largest Crop in the History of the
Fertile Provinces May Be Con-
sidered Assured.

/ Reports of Western Canada's wheat
crop, which may be considered fairly
accurate, as they are made at the
end of the season, when the crop is
! fully harvested, would indicate a
yield of between 350,0O0,OOO and &c.,
| 100000 bushels from a total acreage
of 21,471 900. This is the greatest
yield in the history of the provinces
of Manitoba, saskatchewan and Al
berta This immense yield has only
been harvested through the combined
ways and governments. 1t required
the assistance, outside of that locally
employed. of upward Of 10000 men.
These were brought into the country
from the East, the West and the
South, by trainloads, and rushed for
ward at express speed, to be placed in
the different districts, under the direc-
ton of officials who were kept advised
daily, by wire, of the needs.
AS a result of this combined effort
the largest wheat crop in the history
of the West was successfully harvest
ed The threshing reports show that
almost universally, in every section
of the country, the grain graded high.
In very few places did rain interfere
with stacking. The province of Mani
toba was the first to complete thresh-
ing, very few fields being left at the
time of writing.
Portions of Saskatchewan that had
suffered from drought for the past
two or three years reaped crop that
largely made up for past disappoint-
ments.
In Alberta there was strange con-
dition. In the central district, always
noted for it's heavy yields, there was
considerable of a falling off. Instead
of the 80 and 40 bushel yields the
average ran from 10 to II, while in
southern portions, where drought had
affected the country for some time
past there were exceptionally high
yields
Reports of individual yields in diff
ferent portions of the three provinces
lead to the impression that when
threshing returns are in there will be
found to have been much better crop
than at present seems possible. Some
of these returns give individual farm
ers as getting as high as 45 bushels
others 35, and so on, while in some
districts, where in early August not
more than or 10 bushels might be
looked for, Is and is bushels are re-
corded, the improvement having been
brought about by rains that worked
marvels in the appearance of the crop.
And then, too, instead of the head
carrying four rows, most of them car.
ried six rows, and filled to the top,
which, to those who know, means at
least fifty per cent more.
The rye crop Of all Western Can.
ada is exceptionally good; the oats
generally good and barley fair.
The weather at the time of writing
is threatening for rainy spell, which
may interfere with threshing, and pro
long it somewhat.
Most of the newcomers from the
States have excellent crops. During
August, the trains to Western Canada
carried hundreds of capitalists and
others interested in Western Canada
land, going up to take care of the crop
that they had arranged to have put
in on the land they owned. Very few
of them will be disappointed.-Ad

Wanted a Clue

My niece took quite fancy to my
college signet ring. One day it was
missing from my dresser, and natur-
ally I suspected the little miss had
carried it out of the house and lost
it. although she emphatically de-
MED having taken it. Thinking to
induce her to remember when and
where she had last seen the ring, |
offered her a generous reward if she
would find it. She went Immediately

Majority Wither Quickly, but Some
Grow Robust When Exposed to
New Yorks Climate.

New York has long been known in
the provinces as the nesting place OF
bank rolls. In this nest either they
grow or they die young. A bank roll
is a sensitive plant, as it were, being
influenced quickly and permanently
by climatic and diplomatic changes.
Nothing can become discouraged more
quickly than a bank roll in New York,
and nothing can gain satisfied and
prosperous maturity more quickly if
it gets the right start, attends to its
own business and keeps away from
strangers.

Cold applications to the nose and
the upper lip and to the back of the
neck are helpful at times. Salt water
or vinegar snuffed up the nose will
stop it. A wad of paper under the

His first trip to the United States from

ditions to-day, despite the numerous in
ventions designed to make ocean voy-
ages swift and safe.
Mr.. Bramwell said that trip began
May 16. 1852, and took only nine days.
That Is as fast as many of the big
liners make the trip to-day" he said

A Silly Song

to our shack. the dodgasted thing
got it's breath through a string
and sucked up the dirt in a sack
The next morning after she
bought it she made me stay home
from the store and in ten minutes
time, I had sucked all the CRIME
from the carpets that lay on the
floor. | had rather begun to en-
Joy it and ] showed the thing I'M
der the bed. The tom-cat was
there and it stripped him as bare
as the top of Bill Karbunckle's
head. l jerked the thing loose
from the toni cat. For miles his
bowls could be heard; then l
flung it in rage and it hit the
bird cage and promptly inhaled
the bird. Now it hangs on a
nail in the smoke-house and I
keep a lock on the door. but the
song of our bird no more shall be
heard and the tom-cat is sunburnt
and sore. My wife still insists
that contraption is just what we
need in Our shack and that nv
head contains where | ought to

tains in the sack.-Copyrighted.
