WHAT AN OHIOAN HAS TO SAY ABOUT CONDITIONS IN WESTERN CANADA. W. E. Lewis formerly lived near Dayton, Ohio. He went to Saskatchewan seven years ago with SI,BOO In money, a carload of household effects and farm implements. Including four horses and three cows. Of course, the first year he only got feed from the crops, hot the second year had 100 acres in wheat which made over 2,800 bushels. He has not had a failure In crop, and at present has 22 head of horses, 15 head of cattle and 35 hogs, and owns 1,120 acres of land, all under cultivation. He has been offered $35 an acre for his land, and should he care to dispose of hiß holdings he could pay all his debts and have $30,000 to the good; but, aB he says, “Where could I go to Invest my money and get as good returns." He continues in his letter to the immigration department, August, 1912: “We have equally as good if not better prospects for crops this year as we had three years ago, when our wheat ranged from 30 to 48 bushels per acre. I never believed such crops could be raised until I saw them myself. I had 15 acres that year that made 50 bushels to the acre. Our harvest will be ready by the 12th. We have this season in crop 400 acres of wheat; 125 of oats, 90 of flax and run three binders with four men to do the stooklng. We certainly like this country and the winters, although the winters are cold at times, but we do not Buffer as one would think. What we have accomplished here can be duplicated in almost any of the new districts.” —Advertisement. Ashamed of Them. “Why does Brown sometimes go by another name?” “He used to sign the popular songs he writes." v
ERUPTION ON ANKLE BURNED Kingsville, Mo. —“My trouble began eighteen years ago. Nearly half of the time there were running 3ores around my ankle; sometimes it would be two years at a time before they were healed. There were many nights I did not sleep because of the great Buffering. The sores were deep running ones and so sore that I could not bear for anything to touch them. They would burn all the time and sting like a lot of bees were confined around my ankle. I sould not bear to scratch it, it was always so sensitive to the touch. I could not let my clothes touch it The skin was very red. I made what I called a cap out of white felt blotting paper and soft white cloth to hold it in shape. Thiß I wore night and day. “I tried many remedies for most of the eighteen years with no effect Last summer I sent for some Cutlcura Soap and Ointment. The very first time I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment I gained relief; they relieved the pain right then. It was three months from the time I commenced using Cuticura Soap and Ointment until the sores were entirely healed. I have not been troubled since and my ankle seems perfectly well."
