LAND CROWS RICH
Wonderful Development of Can
 ada in Forty Years.
Four Decades Ago Little Considered, Today One of the Greatest Gran-
 aries and Dairying Centers.

The recent announcement that the sale of the first section of Cana dian Pacific land was sold forty years ago. and when you read that the first carload of wheat was shipped from Winnipeg forty years ago, the changes that have taken place since then are matters of reminiscence, but yet of interest. What forty years ago was an unknown quantity, barren be- cause but little production was at tempted, is today one of the greatest granaries in the world. Then there the West. Dairying was not engaged in at all. Today there are 6,99S,31I farm animals on the prairies, of which SS1,S99 are milch COWS; and dairying is only second in importance to grain growing, in the West.
 Forty years ago the shipment of one carload of grain was notable ex- ploit
 Today, Canada ranks as the second largest wheat-producing country in the world, with 329, ,1S5, 300 bushels. 90 per cent of which was grown in the three prairie provinces, of which the, pro- vince of Saskatchewan produced more than h5if. The Dominion is today the second largest producer of oats. with 530,T10,000 bushels, of which 60 per cent was grown between Winnipeg and the Rocky mountains; and the fifth largest producer of barley with 63,311,- 900 bushels, of which the prairies yielded 65 per cent.
 Forty years ago scarcely any of the tivation. The farm machinery of the time was crude; there were no com potent advisers; government eXperi- mental farms were blessing that came years later.
 Yet these hardy pioneers stuck il out, and in forty years numbers of them are enjoying their declining days in the communities they wrested from the wilderness, prosperous, cOntented, with their children's families gathered about them or seeking their own for tunes still further westward or north ward. They have seen civilization step in to the West and the wilderness swept out. Today are thriving cities and towns where bleaching buffalo bones marked the OK trails of forty years ago.. Today are mighty freight trains, each with it's thousand-ton car go of wheat or merchandise, roaring down the roads where the old carts creaked. Today are schools within walking distance of every farmhouse, churches within driving distance of every home. Today are telephones and every modern convenience linking communities over vast distances by the common bond of the spoken word.
 Forty years ago the Rockies were practically an impenetrable barrier.

may be quite loving and devoted, too Some don't think it makes a creature any less fine to be sweet and friendly.
 Tn fact, some think it shows a finer, nobler nature"
 "Some may think so," said King Lion, but l do not. Some may think all sorts of things, but pooh What do such creatures amount to?
 Have people who may think such thoughts names?
 "I answer my own question. No, they have not! Can they roar?
 Again I answer my own question. They try to roar at times, but they cannot They can't hold up their heads and open their mouths wide and let great. noble, wild, terrific sounds come forth.
 They can open tEeir mouths wide and they can hold up their heads. but that is as far as they can go. They can go m other ways, perhaps-I mean they can run and so forth. but they can't go very far with their voices.
 "So why should pay any attention to what they do? I don't"
 q see" said Mrs. Lioness.
 But was talking about dog" con tinued King Lion.
 "So you were, Your Majesty" said the Lioness.
 And I shall continue to talk about the dog and the person who said was like a dog" said King Lion
 By all means, talk away" said the Liuness.
 Roar, roar, roar" said King Lion. "I do not like dog, and I don't want any one to say that about me
 And if any one says that about me again will give such roar tha, will make such a person tremble with fear. That I will do. Most cer- tainly I will.
 Just because I was having q beau some one thought l looked like dog"
 "l don't believe any one really thought so." said the Lioness. "I sup pose they just thought the bone looked like bone a dog might enjoy"
 "It was too big a bone for a dog" said King Lion. ''The keeper gave me a great raw meat bone because he knows must chew on something hard like that. It gives more variety or change tO my meals. That is impor- tant
 But dog isn't even any distant re- lation of mine I'll let them know that my bone is the bone for a lions meal, and not for dog.
 Roar. roar, roar" said King Lion at the top of his tremendous voice.
 And the Lioness smiled wild, mild smile and said:
 q guess no one thinks you're like anything but lion :"

ONLY MADE MATTERS WORSE
"Dowaqer Mrs. Smythkins" Might Setter Have Not Spoken to That
 "Butler" of Hers.

When the D. Smythkinses got on in the world q little, Tim, their handy man, was promoted to a decayed dress suit and the title and emoluments of butler. In this capacity he had been taken severly to task by Mrs. D. Smythkins, Sr., for allowing some visitors who inquired for her sons wife to go away without having an- nounced the fact that she was at home.
 If this happens again, Tim, you must say. My mistress is out, but the dowager, Mrs. Smythzins, is within. Please step aside.'" she wound up. And Tim promised to obey.
 Long words. however, were not his strong point, and when few days later more visitors called, the word "dowager" refused to remain in his mind
 My mistress is out, sir" he said but the-er-ah-the owld badger is within. Prey step inside. Sure ye needn't look surprised. 'Tis what she towld me to say herself. f.'-LondOn Tit Bits.

WOMEN NEED SWhMP-ROOT

Thousands O. women have kidney and bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other or gans to become diseased.
 Pain in the back, headache, loss of am bition, nervousness, are often times symp- toms of kidney trouble.
 Don't delay starting treatment. Dr. Klmer's SwampRoot, physicians pre- scription, obtained at any drug store, may be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions
 Get medium or large size bottle inn mediately from any drug store
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N Y, for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this advertisement.

TANKS CAPTURE 1921
 TITLES IN SPORTING
Polo and Tennis Were 0utStand'
 ing Features.
Time and Space Saved by Enumerat ing Events in Which United States Met Defeat-Tilden and Hutchi-
 son Victorious.

International sport had its climax during the year which is drawing to its close. If q person touches only the high spots the list is q long one. The coming season of 1922 may sur pass the present one in the multitude of important events, but it'll have to step lively.
 The two surpassing items, the con- petition for the Davis tennis trophy and the International polo cup, were both won by the American teams. This is highly gratifying, writes Malcolm MacLean in the Chicago Post. Notably in the case of the Davis event was the United States triumph one of surpass- ing interest. More nations entered the play than ever before in the history of the famous emblem, and this coun- try fought it out in the challenge round with the representatives of Old Nippon.
 After a. spell of resting in England, the International polo cup was brought back home. This series pro duced a brand new star in the ranks of champion polo stars, young MT. Hitchcock, who is little more than a lad.
 William Tilden, the worlds greatest .ennis player, not only made things 1um in the Davis cup competition, but also captured the British title, the New Zealand crown and the international bard court championship.
 This country has reason to feel proud of the victory of Jock Hutchison in the British open golf championship.
 In fact, so many victories were cap tured by the United States that it will save time and space to record the few H which they were defeated.
 Willie Hunter kept a swarm of Yankees from wrestling away the British amateur golf title, Miss Cecil [eitch guarded the British women's tennis singles title successfully, Great Britain won the international 6-meter boat series, Canada swatted the United States in trap shooting and the girls teams in hockey and soccer from the British Isles were triumphant.
 Outside of that the Americans gob- bled about everything in sight.
