There is no- better safeguard against illness. Just take one-dose tonight. 25c at your druggist. Elizur Sage returned yesterday from Redwood Falls, Minn., where he has a farm of 630 acres. This is the farm that he contracted to sell to a Fowler woman, who pqt up SI,OOO and then decided not to complete the purchase. Mr. Sage sued to compel her-to fulfill the contract but he now expects to withdraw the suit as he found the conditions so fine there that he would sooner keep the farm than to sell at the figure he had made in the contract. All crops were spelndid there, the corn being as fine as Mr. Sage ever saw. Opts made from 50 to 75 bushels to the acre, the average being around 65 bushels. The wheat, however, made only about a half crop, black rust having damaged the late wheat. Mr. Sage was at his farm about two weeks and came home convinced that his land has advanced sls per acre over last year. Summer Constipation Dangerous. Constipation in summer time is more dangerous than in the foil, winter or spring. The food you eat is often'contaminated and is more likely to ferment in your stomach. Then you are apt to drink much cold water during the hot weather, thus injuring your stomach. Colic, fever, ptomaine poisoning and other fills are natural results. Po-Do-Lax will keep you well, as it increases the bile, the natural laxative,, which rids the bowels of the congested poisonous waste. Po-Do-Lax will make you feel better. Pleasant and effective. Take a dose tonight. 50c at your druggist. 'Try a Republican Classified ad.

CANADA AS SEEN BY FORMER RESIDENT

J. W. Bishop Corrects Statements Made in The Jasper County Knocker. ■i --| J. W. Bishop has written the following letter to Theodore George from his home at Czar, Alberta, Canada, telling of the actual erop conditions in Canada as found by one who is in a position to know. Mr. Bishop married Miss Bertha Nichols, who was deputy treasurer of this county for her father, S. R. Nichols, during his term of office. The letter follows: Czar, Alta, Canada, August Bth, 1914. Mr. Theodore George, Rensselaer, Indiana, U. S. A. Dear JBir: . • . ' ..

I have noticed an article in The Jasper County Democrat, of July 31. I will say that I believe your Democrat editor has shaded general conditions in Alberta and western Canada to an exaggerated degree. I have lived.:jn Alberta lour years and as yet I have not seen the for* mer in want of food; nor bis children begging bread notwithstanding that this is a newly opened country and freight is high; nor have I seen persons who have purchased land of either the C. P. R. •or H. B. anxious to sell it. In my four years’ experience with central and eastern Alberta I have seen fair crops of oats, wheat, barley and flax, and I have seen the value of a homestead increase in value from SBOO to $3,000. I have neighbors who came into Canada five years ago with just enough money to make a homestead entry, and through skillful management are worth $5,000. I have seen wheat yield 38 *to 46 bushels per acre, oats 40 to 70 bushels per acre and flax 18 bushels per acre. Last year the flax on my homestead averaged 15 bushels to the acre; this year I have a 20-acre field of wheat which will go anywhere from 20 to 25 bushels per acre. The stems will average about 32 inches in height. I admit a hail storm hit this section of the country June 17th, and did great damage; but I havb seen hail storms in Dear Old Hoosierdom split the corn blades and blight the ears. I judge the wheat <?f this section will average 20 to 25 bushels perkcreage out. We have very small acreage of oats as wheat thrives too well to give the soil to oats raising. Your Democrat editor’s friends spoke of our enormous amount; of sunshine. I wonder if they know that sunshine is a balm to the spring Wheat and that in her long bright day the wheat stem tossed and basked for about four-score days ten. Returning to Winnipeg via C. P; R. from Edmonton, they certainly passed through my section of the country and with a vigilant eye they could have seen through the dawn’s Sarly light, a church at either of the villages, viz. Sedgewick, Lougheed, Hardesty, Hughenden or Ozar, which range in population from 200 to 1,000, and even churches in the country, and they could have seen 1 to 3 grain elevators at either of the named villages. The Gen. Merchants’ store of Czar is 40x100 feet and is two stories and a half. The second stoiw is devoted to general use as a hall and chapel; the other half to furniture and undertaker’s equipments and suppiles: the ground floor is used for groceries and shelf hardware; in addition to this is a warehouse for harness, heavy hardware, flour and building supplies. It certainly takes a farming district to support such a stock of goods, but we have another prosperous little store, two lumber yards, a good depot, a bank, a doctor, two livery barns, two blacksmith shops, a hotel, a loan and real estate building, a church and two ministers, a pool room and barber shop, a restaurant and last but not least a jack of all ■’ ades. The citizens of Czar and vicinity sport 5 automobiles. This far is the sunny side of conditions as they actually exist to my knowl-

edge in my section of the country, and have existed since I crossed the States and Canadian line. We have heavy hay crops this year and4ast year was a good wheat year throughout western Canada. gowever, our latitude and position l relation to the mountains places us to a great disadvantage, and it is posible for one to see all the famine your Democrat editor’s friends spoke of; but on a very limited area to what their statements would convey. The reader will remember, Alberta lies just east of the Rocky Mountains, and the physiography of a narrovotrlp in Canada and broader as we go south into the States, is bordered by foothills, and ravines, making a very changeable climate near the

mountains, and as the C. P. R. from Calgary to Edmonton in, places touches points susceptible'to frost any day of any month, they could easily have seen frozen wheat. As we journey south from Red Deer River this year crops grow scant and at last fade away and the relative territory in the States, I am very sorry to say, has shared like fate and is a famine stricken district this year, and I am safe in saying not one-twentieth of Alberta Is arid this year and your Democratic editor's friends must have mistaken a shower of manna for hail, as'~God will never forsake western Canada Yours respectfully, J. W. BIBHOP. < Ctawdfled Adv will find ft Look over our classified eolumn.
