WESTERN CANADA’S STRONG POSITION

"THE WHEAT GRANARY OF THE WORLD," A WELL APPLIED TERM.

Western Canada occupies a stronger posftion today than it ever has occur pied. Taking one year with another; the efficiency of its lands to produce has been well proved. It has not been said of it that year in and year out there were bumper and bounteous crops. If such a condition existed it would be phenomenal In the history of any country. With' an extensive territory producing g*ain, hogs, cattle and sheep, of some 800 miles wide and 1,000 miles long, it is easy to conceive of a wide variation In temperature and climate; thereto variation in rainfall &hd snowfall; every section is not the best in the diftyirit —some are better than others and some worse, but as a general thing, the great percentage is “better.” This past year has shown that some portions are not altogether immune from periods of drought The same may be said of adjoining states to the south. But this year has also shown that in the greater portion of Western Canada drought does not appear, but even in the drought-stricken area of this year, past years have shown that the soil produces wonderfully well and even this year, with modern methods, known as “dry-farming,” good crops were harvested. The large number of Americans who during the past sixteen years have been attracted to Canada have not gone simply because of the advertising of that country, but because their friends and their oldtime neighbors have done well there, and with careful and judicious farming almost everyone has done well. As a result of the great influx of immigration the open or prairie homesteading area is being rapidly taken up. The fact that this is so is evidence that Western Canada lands are productive, and on. these open plains today are to be seen the homes of successful farmers from almost state in the Union. They have earned their patents, own outright their 160 acres of land, together probably with an adjoining 160 acres, which they have purchased or preempted, all of which is worth from $25 to S3O per acre. They originally started by growing grains altogether, but they found that they could secure a better price for much of their grain by feeding it to hogs and cattle, and the most successful ones are those who have followed this course.

But to meet the wants of the newcomer a new homestead area has been opened up, known as the “park country.” In this park country are to-be found beautiful groves of poplar and willow, small lakes and streams, with sufficient open area to enable one to go Into immediate cultivation of crop, and in due time when they wish more land to be put under cultivation, they may at small cost cut down some of the groves, which' in the moantime have been valuable in providing fuel and in giving shelter to cattle. Notwithstanding the high character of the open prairie lands and the fact that farmers there have realized In a splendid way, there is the opinion backed up by a lot of experfeqce that this parklike country contains soil even better than that of the open area referred to.

The opportunities, therefore, for money making are as great today as they ever were. The opportunities for carrying on farming successfully are fully as great as they ever were. Of this park area we have an immense quantity of land yet to be settled. It is true that the railroads have not yet penetrated these districts to the extent that they have the open area, but this will come and as settlements advance, so will railroads build. For the present there is a temporary lull In railroad building, but it Is always the case that where there is a demand there will come a supply, and it will not be long before the park Country will be penetrated by railroads that will give sufficient accommodation for all needs, but to those who prefer it there are lots of opportunities for purchasing land nearer towns and villages 9 and at low prices and on easy terms.

Whether one! cares to purchase or homestead it can better be done by paying a visit to.the country and it will repay ypu to spend some little time visiting' the different districts. — Advertisement

These Draws.

CoL Sigismund L. Goodwin, the well-known tactician, said at a dinner Lm Lincoln: “A good deal of the war news —that from Berlin and Petrogr&d—reminds me irresistibly of little Willie. “ ‘Papa.’ said little Willie, looking up from the Evening Bulletin’s extra special, ‘papa, what Is a drawn bat tier “ ‘A drawn battle, my son,’ the father replied, is one wherein the en emy wins.”’

Good News.

“Paw.” “Well?” “When I promise to marry him, do yon want him to come and ask your consent V “No; not my consent, but I would like to have him trot in and tell me the good news. I sort of feel like I needed cheering up.”—Houston Post

EFFECT OF WAR BHOWN IN THE PREVAILING FASHIONS.

Tailored Bulta Undeniably Martial, and Alto Smart'—lllustration Reveals How the idea Has Taken Feminine Fancy.

If the brass buttons and other military paraphernalia are to make an appeal now is the time. Bursting shells and the sound of drums in some corner of the world, whether it be far or near, showß a very decided military influence sh the world of fashion, and the tears we shed over the tragic losses each day reveals are more than apt to fall on our own brass buttons and gold braid promptly supplied by vigilant Dame Fashion for the fitting occasion, writes Lillian E. Young in the Washington Star. Many of the newest tailored suits and frocks are undeniably martial In appearance, and, let It be added, undeniably smart on that account. Here, for example, is one in black velvet with collar and cuffs of white fox and buttons and braid —well, no, they aren’t brass —for silver is so fashionable, you see, and goes well with black. I '

The long body of the coat is very slightly gathered under a corded waist line started at either side of the front and slanted to a point in back. This also forms a heading to the full coattail. The < severe double-breasted

fronts are appropriately trimmed with silver braid and suspended silver ball buttons.

The straight lines of the long, full tunic skirt are broken at the knee across the sides and back by an applied cording that holds in a. scant line of gathers. The underskirt is narrow and quite plain. The modish silver-trimmed black hats are particularly well suited to such a costume as this.

Apropos of the Millinery.

Fashion has been very kind this autumn in the way of millinery modes, for she has decreed that either big or

London Journal, Humorously Bars Two on Account of the War— Some Others to Be Popular.

The one color that we may be Sure will not be popular is Saxe blue; we shall have to renam e It French blue. The cornflower will also incur some disfavor, because it is said to be the kaiser’s favorite flo|wer. Brown will be a very favorite Shade, and purple of the red wine tones which are warm and becoming is being looked upon with much favor. That black must be largely worn we know; there have been times, howfeverj when the somber hue has been assumed by smart women from choice. Tawny tones we shall undoubtedly Bee many of, and also deep crimsons. Women are taking, happily, their usual wholesome interest in their clothes and there la no reason to suppose that our sex will not look as nice and smart and well turned out in war time as in peace time. —London Sketch.

WITH THE ETON JACKET

American designers have revived the eton jacket for fall wear. In this model, one of many charming ones seen on the avenue, the eton jacket ie of black broadcloth. The skirt is a Russian tunic, with broad accordion plaits. A black and white striped girdle in vest form completes this three-piece garment. A roiling medlcl collar gives it that chic set-off which American designers are using to such good advantage. The toque is of black velvet with black ribbon feathers.

little hats are to be in vogue. Therefore all types of women should he pleased. The ones who like small shapes will find plenty of new models to pick from, and the women who like the broad, shady hat also will not be disappointed. Four of the smartest new hats for autumn wear were seen the other day. The first one was a navy blue velvet hat,! trimmed with white satin roses and strands of marabou. The next model was a very chic affair in the popular new sailor shape, with a band and bow of uncut white velvet and'black fancy feathers. The third one was a smart little toque of black velvet with black wings shooting out at the rear. The last was by no means least This was a white felt hat with silver roses and a black velvet facing.

Moire Watch Bracelet.

The Very latest wrist watch is exceedingly small, and instead of the usual bracelet of platinum, gold or silver, it is made of moire ribbon onehalf inch wide, double, and fastened with a buckle or clasp. Some of the watches are scarcely larger than a flve-cent piece, the face surrounded with jewels. The clasps for the ribbon are -also jeweled. *

Taffeta and Pique Combined.

Some ordinary morning blouses are a combination of taffeta and pique, the taffeta making the body of the blouse, the pique the* collar and the cuffs. Lingerie blouses have made their reappearance in striped effects, a stripe of wide Valenciennes lace alternating with a stripe of tucked batiste, making a very lacy affair.

sion, and remember that lips which curve upward and smile are much more attractive than the drooping sort. A delightful way of imparting a delicate Bcent to the hair is to let It filter through in the form of steam. It sounds difficult, but it 1b not at all. Simply fill a small bowl with boiling water tod pour some of your particular perfume upon it. The two liquids will not mingle, but If you bold your head over the bowl the steam of the water will carry the scent with it and through the hair in a most satisfactory fashion.

Silver Lace and Satin.

A frock, InPonce piece, fastening in the back, Is made with a black satin foundation and a deep, full chiffon sleeves, and there Is an overblouse of satin/cut so that it bangs smooth and wrinkleless from the bust and ends below the waist in a rounded outline. Sliver cords reach from the underarms seams to the back of the waist The straight satin bodice suggests, in its lines, a coat of mail. There is a slightly rounded neck line, finished with a little rolling collar, as high in back as in front, of silver lace.

Broadcloth and Satin.

Broadcloth and satin are much combined. For instance, there will be a skirt of broadcloth with a bodice of satin. Plaid broadcloth is also used. But it is plaided in dull, deep colors. These colors, which are employed In pie season’s plaids and •tripes, are infinitely more pleasing than the vivid, garish colors used last year..

Trifling Mistake.

Mrs. Lane Is a zealous and loyal wife, according to Harper’s Magazine, and Intends to avoid exaggeration, but she has a strong tendency in that direction. “It is perfectly wonderful,” she said to a patient friend, “to see the way Mr. Lane counts bills at the bank. .1 think they are so lucky,to have hfm! He’ll take a great pile of five and ten and twenty dollar bills and make his fingers fly just like' lightning, and never make a mistake!” “Never?” asked the friend, who knew Mrs. Lane’s weakness, and could not forbear the question. “Well—no —at least,” stammered Mrs. Lane, “why, perhaps he might get fire or ten cents out of the way, but not any more, ever.”
