YIELD BIG CROPS Grain Seeds From Western Can? ada Do Well in Ohio. ; Demand for Them Is Bound to Add Value to the Xand of Our Northern Neighbor, Now to Be Had Cheap. A large area of the land in several counties in Ohio prepared for spring seeding will be seeded wfffi Marquis wheat —a spring variety. This wheat is imported from Western Canada. It was about three years ago that the first of this seed was imported into the States, and the result, watched each succeeding year, proved that Ohio soil and spring seeding was a success. The demand for the seed has now become so great that one of the largest seed houses in the state, that has been purchasing from Western Canada farmers and importing it, has decided to purchase a large block of land In that country for the purpose of growing the grain themselves. They will devote a considerable portion of their Western Canada holdings to growing oats, barley and rye. Their action is a strong indorsement of the product. For some time past a considerable quantity of seed oats has also been imported' The prolific yield reported was what probably gave an impetus to the Introduction of wheat. It was found, though, after a couple of years the quality of the oats, as well as the yield, began to deteriorate when grown seed was used, making it necessary for frestr importations every couple of years. It Is possible that the same experience may follow the growing of Western Canada wheat. Tn fact it is quite probable, and the Ohio farmer will find it necessary to import every two years. With the success that has followed the Ohio farmers’ experiments with this imported seed it is possible other states now growing winter wheat will begin growing spring wheat. It may therefore be taken for granted that Western Canada, in addition to its ability to produce hundreds of millions of bushels of wheat possessing the greatest percentage of gluten of any wheat in the world, will-shortly he called upon to provide the seed that will he grown on the additional acres in'the United States that may be devoted to spring wheat. It is a well-established fact that the further north any product of the farm can be brought to a state of maturity, the more vigorous It becomes. This has been proven in the grains that have been produced In Western Canada ; it has been shown in the development of Its horses. Its cattle, its sheep and its hogs; also In its people. The neighbor to the north really has a splendid future before him, and many years will not have passed before the lands that are selling today at much less than their producing value will bring prices more commensurate with their true worth than they do today. Think of lands that yield in their operation a profit of from fifteen to twenty-five dollars an acre a year selling at figures less than S4O an acre. It does not require a mathematician to figure the percentage of profit. ,It Is unfair to these lands to ask them to continue these profits for long. So It ,is safe to make the prediction that In a very few years they will place themselves on a parity with other lands that tqday produce less and sell tor much more. —Advertisement.
