gravely, that this has been rendez-

this place just exactly as I have
perhaps several somebodies-but my
present notion is that the discoverer

disreputable gang he has with him.
His determination to get control OF

fellows he has brought there from

INSTINCT is TO OWN HOME
No Possession More Desirable, and
the Great Majority of People
Recognize the Fact.

In the old days-days not so old
after all when you come to think Of it
the home ives the center Of social
activities, the place where all family
pleasures were enjoyed And the
pride of every family head was to own
his home; to know that the abiding
place he provided for his loved ones
was theirs, endeared to them by DOS
session and insuring to them a shell
ter In the event of untoward circum-
stance.
In these days it sometimes seems
that we are drifting away from the
nome. Life is more complex; social
and entertainment features are pro-
vided in such unlimited and varied di.
rections that we are tempted away
from the roof tree during most Of our
hours Of recreation. The old-fashioned
ways Of entertaining company" the
pleasant home parties are almost for
gotten.
And with this there has come to
some persons a feeling that there are
other possessions more desirable than
home. The desire for home owning
seems to have been stifled in them.
But this is but a transient phase In
the lives of relatively few people.
The home owning instinct is a true
one and one that is not supplanted by
any other for any length of time

IN CROPS
Western Canada Farmers AS
sured of Bountiful Yields.
conditions Reported From All Parts
OF the Provinces Satisfactory In the
Highest Oegree-Pass Expectations.

From as early as April II, when
seeding became general throughout the
Western Canadian Provinces, was
there anything but optimism In the
feelings Of the farmers of that coun-
try. An uninterrupted chain Of favor
able conditions have bound the early
seeding data with the conditions OF
the crop today. There were no set
backs. There may have been hall
storm or two with some III effects
through portions of the country, but
the track they took was so small
that the percentage of loss was al
most imperceptible compared with the
whole. Rains fell just when needed,

farmer himself, the ground, generally.
was in perfect condition and fully re-
sponsive. 1t is now question of rival
ry between districts and provinces
which will produce the greatest re-
suits in crop yields and averages. Out
in Alberta, whether 1t be In the north
or in the south, that which gave as
of an excellent crop is passing expec'
tation, and experts say there VIII be
produced crop away greater than
ever befO.e in the history Of the prov
ince, and Alberta has had some big
yields. Then, in Saskatchewan there
exist the same conditions. The ex-
IRENE north and extreme south will
vie with the east and west In the
story at harvest and threshing time.
Manitoba. while not boastful, COM
placently watches fields of wheat,
oats, rye anG barley that promise to
set a new record for that province.
The fact is apparent that Western
Canada will have crop yield in all
grains away ahead of any year in the
history Of the country. This will be
pleasing news to the thousands in the
United States, who have friends and
relatives farming in that country. II
should not be forgotten that these
crops will be raised on land that in
many cases cost less than $40 an acre
and some of 1t was procured by mere
ly homesteading. It is possible today
to secure improved farms at very low
figures, as well as raw or virgin
prairie ANY Canadian government
agent will gladly give information as
to the condition of the crops. and
dates when special rates may be had

is probably one of the greatest grain

capitaIizina Barber Shop Talk.

All the BARRIERS of Lebanon, Penn,
were recently invited to smoker
given by the chamber of commerce.
The invitations were extended in
the belief that the BARRIERS have
continuous opportunity to give Wis
itors a favorable impression Of the
city, that many barber shops are for
ums of public discussion where
municipal questions are freely argued,
and that the BARRIERS should have a
true conception of the city's develop
ment with an understanding of the
part taken by the chamber of COM

vitations made it plain that the smoker
was not in any way scheme to pro-

Mrs. Fred Dreiver, head Of the wom-

"Of course there are men with
money who believe that an investment
in nontaxable stocks is better than
home owning, when you take into con-
sideration high rate Of taxation and
the cost Of building and maintenance.
But the woman's side Of 1t isn't con-
sidered in such a view. A woman
wants home. The family are hap

there is a feeling Of responsibility to-
ward the community and each other
