The farmer must endeavor to secure an equal footing in the competition for a lower cost of production. In "Western Canada the farmer has come through the dark era with that fortitude and determination so peculiar t a new country, and is meeting tie changed situation witn energy and a Mnile. In Western Canada the farmer j Is not hamiered by an annual over- ; head expense of heavy interest on j high-priced land. lie is able to pro- j dure at n minimum, because hi.C land value seldom exceeds $.V) an acre. Owing to the fact that he Is farming land the price of which is from $-." to $r0 an acre, producing crop! of wheat running from 20 to AO bushels per acre, and other grains in proportion, lie is able to produce at a lowcost. In addition to this, a fact which should not be lost sight of. is the large area that he can farm at low cost, giving him an added advantage in reducing the cost of production. The corn that the fairmer fully expected to hring him over a dollar a bushel, he saw carried away to the market, and bring hack a "0 or 40 cent check. Wheat for the whole of Canada averaged Mi cents a bushel in 11 1 as compared with Sl.lVJ in P.VJ0; oats :i7 cents as against Ö" cents; barley -17 cents as against SC cents. Other grain prices similarly fell. While other parts of the continent, where grain-growing is carried on. have suf fered in like maimer hy deflation in prices, they have had to face a much ! higher cost in production, such as high j rents, hlgh-prhvd farms, and high ! taxes. Farmers had calculated on receiving war or nearly war tigures for their grain and therefore were amply j Justified in submitting to the tax that , soaring land prices set upon them. ' Western Canada fortunately did not suffer from inflated land prices. Therefore, when grain prices fell, the losses sustained were not so great ; they did not cut out the margin of profit, excepting in some cases where some climatic conditions caused it. Why not take advantage of the Ilomeseekors rate to any point In Western Canada, of return rate single fare plus $2.00. and get information from the nearest Canadian Covern- ! ment agent?

for the most part they always stay where they are. Men who make the same mistakes twice never get the confidence of an employer. Those who think about their mistakes, and find out ways to eliminate them, are those who g"t along. It is better to discover your own mistakes than to wait for the boss to discover them. Discover them early, and you can do without them the next time. Go over your work. If It Is not ap to the mark that you ought to make, you liavf either made Important mistakes, or wasted time, which in Itself Is an important mistake. Think about that. I?t it sink into your soul. Think how it held your work back, and what the repetition of It will do to your life's work. This may not contribute to your repose the night you are thinking about It, but It will make you sleep better for many a night to come. Perfection Is the absence of mistakes. We cannot any of us achieve it, but we can all achieve a pretty fair substitute by cutting mistakes to the minimum. (Copyright.)

It Is an Indication of a combative nature, which delights in contests of bodily strength or mental agility. Note whether the nail of the finger of Saturn, or second finger, bears a white mark. This is held by some authorities to Indicate a voyage to be undertaken by the subject. If a nail shows black marks, it is an indication of sorrow and trouble. On the thumb nail the black mark shows a faulty, passionate nature. On the nail of the finger of Mercury, the little finger, a white snot means a successful business enterprise, and a black spot means the opposite, a reverse or disaster In business. If there is a white, star-shaped mark on the nail. It Is a sign of affection that is not reciprocated, except when the mark appears on the thumb nail, when it means the opposite, or requited affection. Nails of medium length and width, and of a bluish tint, show that the circulation of the blood is faulty, and there is a tendency toward extreme nervousness. (Copyright.)
