WESTERN CUDS LEARS AS WHEAT PRODUCER

342,000 v 0t)0 Bushels Wheat to 1915; In 1916 Many Farmers Paid for Their Land Out of Their Crop. That Western Chnada Is indeed “Mistress of Wheat” to the extent that Its 1915 crop exceeded, acre for acre, the production of any country on this continent is a striking fact proved by the following figures: —: — In 1915 the Dominion of Canadrt produced 376.000.000 bushels of wheat, which represented an average yield of 29 bushels to the acre. The United States produced 1,0M,505,000 bushels, yield of 17 bushels per acre. The only serious competitors in wheat production in South America were Argentine, with 178,221,000 bushels, or~icss-than 12 bushels per acre, and. Chile, with 19,000,000 bushels or 13 bushels per acre. . _ v • •• — The three Western Canndian prairie provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta produced between them 342,000,000 bushels out of the total Canadian 376,000,000 It will be seen, therefore, that, outside of the United States, Western Canada produced considerably more than the combined production of North and South America. Canada is of course a newsettled country, and the fact that the crop of the United States was practically three times us much is no discouragement. The United States has at present more’than twelve times the population of Canada In approximately -the same area. - —jfo 11 m strator in e greaterp rtr Tluctlveness of Western Canadian land, we submit the following figures, showing the 1915 yields per acre in the three provinces of Western Canada and in the states which in that year produced the greatest quantity of wheat. The figures are taken from the U. S. department of agriculture’s annual report and from the figures of the Dominion census bureau:

Bushels per acre 1915 All Canada ...29 Western Canada only 29 1-5 Province of Manitoba 28 4-5 Province of Saskatchewan .... .281-2 Province of Alberta ..j. 32 4-5 United States, all 17 Montana 77777777284-2 Washington ...251-5 Wisconsin .-. .22 3*4 — Ohio ,20 2-5 lowa .........................19 4-5 Illinois 7777777/. 19 Pennsylvania 181-2 Nebraska 18 2-5 North Dakota 7.. 18 1-5 Indiana 171-5 South Dakota 7 171*10' Minnesota 17 Texas ttt ...... .......... ...7.151-2 Virginia-, 13 4-5 Kansas 121-2 Missouri 12 3-10 Oklahoma 113-Sy In 1916 the crop was not ns heavy, but the yields In many districts were very large. So large, Indeed, was the acreage under cultivation in 1915 that the resulting crop proved too large to be all threshed the same fall. It overloaded railroads, and made jmarketing Tsldw. A less amount of fall plowing was done than would have been done in a less heavy year, because the average farmer was too busy with his threshing. AH these conditions necessarily reacted upon” the acreage seededinthesprittgof 1910, Add-ta this that labor last yean owing to the great number of Canadians who have enlisted, was scarce and high-priced, and one factor in the decreased yield—smaller acreage under crop was evident.

Another factor is that this year Western Canada has experienced, in common with the entire North American continent, conditions- that have been less favorable to the production of big crops. The conditions have resulted in smaller yield per acre and reduced of grain in certain localities. The,, average yield of wheat in the three western provinces is estimated by the government at about 36 bushels per acre, oats 43 bushels, and 27 bushels. The financial value of their crops to Western Canadian farmers has been greater this year than ever before. Owing to the high prices of grain that are prevailing, returns have been re=~ ceived that are extremely profitable. With wheat standing at the present time at over $1.90 per bushel at the Great Lakes, a wheat crop at present figures would pay the farmer, even supposing he had only the average of 16 bushels per acre, over $30.00 per acre. A large number are receiving $50.00 per acre—soine have received $75.00, and a few even more tlmn that. This price, of course, is not all profit: it represents the gross return, and the cost of operation must be deducted. But It does not, even at thelilghest figures, cost more than 65 cents to raise a bushel of wheat in Western Canada, so that the profit can be figured accordingly. It myst.be emphuslzed that the acre which produces a $30.00 crop costs in the first case, probably less than that. In the United States the same class of land would' cost in many districts from SIOO to S2OO per acre, and even then a return of s3oroo”would considered extremely satisfactory. In Western Canada the best class ofagricultural land, capable of producing crops that in size compare with any country in the *orld except, perhaps, some European countries, can be oh-

It is no exaggeration whatever- to say that a number., of Western Cunadian farmers have paid for their land entirely from the pror cecils of last year’s crop, and this includes men who last year began for the first time. —Advertisement.

ALL WORTH WHILE

EVERY KIND OF FAD HAS SOME . ADVANTAGE/ ♦ Trouble Is, One Is Apt to Go Into Them With Too Great Enthusiasm at First—Three Good Examples of That Kind. Do you remember a few years ago when we all went wild about paperbag cookery? Everything from soup to pudding we baked in paper hags, nod We vowed that every dish that bad been cooked by that new method possessed a strange delieiousness that never have been gained but through the paper bug. We bought recipe books and no end of bags. We liked the fad for a while and then we forgot. We had a few failures and we became disgusted. So passed the fad for paper bags. And then came a new vogue for casserole cooking. To be sure, similar dishes had been cooked with similar results in France, Spain, Germany and Scotland, and other lands, for eons of years. But somehow our culinary interest was focused on the casserole, and we swore our eternal and undying devotion to it. It was chicken en casserole, beef en casserole and everything else en casserole until we forgot all about the casserole and relegated it to the top shelf with the paper hags. one time in the history of our culinary experiments we became addieted to the use of the fireless cooker. We spent our good money on a largo and complete outfit and spent long hours experimenting' with the various appliances. But before we had saved la fuel enough to- cover half the cost and up to the attic went the tireless cooker in disgrace. Now, the really sensible thing to do would be to accept these fads for what they are worth and to keep them all. There are things that can in no other way be so well or so conveniently cooked as in paper bags. Baked fish in a paper bag is delicious and leaves no dishes to be washed. Casserole chicken is more delicious than any other sort of chicken and an occasional casserole stew is well worth while. For cereals and many sorts of meat dishes the tireless cooker is a convenience to •every housewife, and surely vegetables and puddings cooked in glass have many decided advantages. Therefore, keep all these devices for what they are worth, and take care not ,to exhaust your Interest at flrst by too great enthusiasm.

Why Rheumatism Comes With Cold Weather! BT VAUSHTINE MOTT PIERCE, M. D.

A close connection exists between theeetwo coid weather and rheumatism. Prof. Alex. Haig, of London, has the most followers in the medical profession in the belief that the presence in the system of uric acid, or its salts in excess, is the real cause of rheumatism. Everyone has recognized the difference in the appearance of their wdter as soon as it gets cold j there is often a copious sediment of bnckdnst. Several causes may lead up to an accumulation of nric acid in the system, which, itx Thru, canserrheutnatremor gout, or creaky joints, or swollen fingers, or painful joints. « For ope reason the skin dfcHGpot throw off the uric acid, by profuse sweating, as in the hot weather, and-the kidneys are nnabje to take care of thg double burden. Another reason a. ' *' ‘ V
