    The 1915 Yield of Grain Keeps
Western Canada to the Front.
The great publicity that has been
given to the grain yields of the Prov
inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta, the three provinces that com
prise that portion of Western Canada
east of the British Columbia boundary,
has kept Canada to the front with a
prominence that is merited.
The grain crop of the three prov
inces has now been harvested, and suf
ficient of it has been threshed so that
it is no longer a matter of estimate as
to the returns. It is safe to say that
the entire yield of wheat will be up
wards of 275,000,000 bushels, and the
average yield well over 25 bushels per
acre. In proportion to the aggregate
this is perhaps the largest yield ever
known on the continent.
Most of this wheat will grade No. 1
northern, and better, and with pres
ent prices the condition of the farm
er is to be envied. Many individual
yields are reported, and verified, and
they are almost beyond belief, but
they go to show that under the care
ful system of agriculture that pro
duced these yields Western Canada
would have far exceeded a 300,000,000
production of wheat in 1915 had the
system been universal.
It was not in one or two districts
4that big yields have been made known.
The reports come from all parts of
the 24,000 square miles of territory in
which the growing of wheat is car
ried ion.
Mr. Elmir Seller, a farmer south ot
Strassburg, Sask., has harvested 5,405
bushels No. 1 hard wheat from 100
acres.
Jas. A. Benner, near Daysland, Al
berta, says his wheat went over 40
bushels to the acre, with an all round
crop of 33 bushels to the acre.
J. N. Wagner, near the same place,
also lays claim to over 40 bushels oi
wheat per acre.
A Norwegian farmer, named S. A.
Tofthagen, not far from Daysland,
had 23 acres of wheat which gave a
yield of 47 bushels to the acre.
Well, then, near Gleichen, Alberta,
D. H. Engle of Humboldt, Iowa, owns
a quarter section of land. This land
was rented so that Mr. Engle should
receive one-third of the crop, and this
gave him $612.65, his net rental for
the crop, and there was only 80 acres
iu crop.
Scores of reports give yields fully
as large as those given above. A
large field of spring wheat near Leth
bridge averaged 69 bushels, another 59
and a third 56 bushels per acre. On
the Jail farm at Lethbridge 25 acres
of Marquis wheat yielded 60 bushels to
the acre and weighed 67 pounds to the
bushel. A test lot of one acre of Mar
quis wheat when threshed yielded 99
bushels and a 30 acre field averaged
601-3 bushels. This farm had 200
acres under crop to Marquis wheat
and it is expected the average from
the whole will exceed 50 bushels.
In all portions of Saskatchewan and
Manitoba, as well, remarkable yields
are reported, many large fields show
ing averages of from 40 to 55 bushels
per acre.
When the story of this year's thresh
ing is completed some extraordinary
yields will be heard of. One farmer
west of Unity, Saskatchewan, threshed
10,000 bushels of No. 1 northern from
200 acres and such instances will not
be isolated.
Considerable of the wheat grown in
Western Canada is finding its way to
the markets of the United States, not
withstanding the duty of ten cents
per bushel. The miller in the United
States finds Western Canadian wheat
necessary for the blending of the high
class flour that is demanded by some
millers. Already near a hundred
thousand bushels of the 1915 crop has
found its way to the Minneapolis, Du- !
luth, St. Louis and other markets.
It was not in wheat alone that there
were extraordinary yields. A farmer
living south of Wadena, Sask., har
vested 900 bushels of oats from ten
acres. S. A. Tofthagen of Daysland
before referred to had oats which
yielded 110 bushels to the acre, while
those of J. N. Wagner went 90 bush
els to the acre.
As is pointed out by a Toronto pa
Iper Canada's great good fortune and
splendid service as the Granary’ of the
Empire are revealed in the record
harvest from her rich fields of wheat
i and other grains. "The foundation of
its prosperity is solid and enduring.
While mines may be exhausted and
■, lumber may disappear through im
I provident management, agriculture is
a perpetual source of wealth, increas
ing from year to year by the stimulus
of individual industry and personal in
terest. A wheat harvest of 336,250,000
bushels from 13,000,000 acres, an av
erage yield of 26 bushels to the acre.
The substantial nature of this growth
in production is shown by the fact
that the harvest returns are 72 per
cent greater than the average for the
past five years.
The same satisfactory and highly
important success has been attained
in other grain crops. The aggregate
yield of oats is 481,035,500 bushels
from the 11,365,000 acres under crop.
Of this yield 305,680,000 bushels are
from the three Prairie Provinces.
These provinces also contribute 304,
200,000 bushels of wheat. The bar
ley harvest is 50.868,000 bushels from
1,509.350 acres, an average yield ot
33.7 bushels per acre."
"The impression one gets in going
through Alberta, Saskatchewan and
Manitoba,” said a traveler from the
East, “is that all the horses and teams
and all the threshing machines en
gaged make no Impression on the
crops, and that it will take six months
to thresh the grain out; but two
weeks ago the Canadian Pacific rail
way were having a daily shipment of
] 1,700 cars of wheat from the three
i provinces, and a week ago they had
I got up to 2,100 cars a day. And be
sides this there is the Canadian North
i ern railway and the Grand Trunk Pa
cific, so an enormous quantity must
be being shipped out of the provinces
'The wealthier farmers are building
large granaries on their farms, while
there is a great improvement in the
storage facilities provided by the gov
ernment.”
It is therefore no wonder that the
greatest interest was showm by those
who attended the Soil Products Ex
position held at Denver a short time
ago, when it was demonstrated that it
was not only in quantity that Western
Canada still occupied the primary po
sition. It was there that Western
Canada again proved its supremacy.
In wheat, it was early conceded that
Canada would be a winner, and this
was easily the case, not only did it win
the big prize, but it carried off the
sweepstakes. What, however, to those
who were representing Canada at this
exposition, was of greater value proba
bly, was winning first and second prize
for alfalfa. The exhibits were beauti
ful and pronounced by old alfalfa
growers to be the best they had ever
seen. First, second and third cuttings
of this year’s growth were shown.
At this same exposition, there were
shown some excellent samples of fod
der corn, grown in the Swift Current
district.
Topping the range cattle market in
Chicago a short time ago is another of
the feats accomplished by Western
Canada this year.
On Wednesday, October 13, Clay.
Robinson and company sold at Chi
cago for E. H. Maunsell, Macleod, Al
berta, a consignment of cattle, 17 head
; of which, averaging 1,420 pounds,
; brought $8.90 per hundredweight, top
ping the range cattle market for the
week to date. The same firm also
sold for Mr. Maunsell 206 head, aver
aging 1,240 pounds, at $S.55, without a
throwout. These were all grass cat
tle. They were purchased by Armour
and company. Clay, Robinson and
company describe the cattle as of
very nice quality, in excellent condi
tion, and a great credit to Mr. Maun
sell. It speaks well for our Canadian
cattle raisers that they can produce
stock good enough to top the Chicago
market against strong competition,
there being over 4,000 range cattle on
sale that day.
It is one thing to produce crops
such as are referred to, and another
to get them to market. The facilities
of Western Canada are excellent. The
railway companies, of which there are
three, the Canadian Pacific, the Cana
dian Northern and the Grand Trunk
Pacific, have the mark of efficiency
stamped upon all their work. Besides
the main trunk lines of these systems,
which extend from ocean to ocean,
there are branch lines and laterals,
feeders which enter into remote parts
of the farming districts, and give to
the farmer immediate access to the
world's grain markets. The elevator
capacity of the country is something
enormous, and if the figures can be
digested, the full extent of the grain
producing powers of Western Canada
may be realized. The total elevator
capacity is about 170,000,000 bushels,
or nearly one-half of the entire wheat
production of the Dominion in 1915.
Of this large storage facilities the
country elevators number 2,800, with
a capacity of 95,000,000 bushels.—Ad

{ mules superior to horses fob work"
Two-Year-Old Mule Colt.
Nearly everyone knows that in con
struction work in the cities where
teams are used, the mule stands alone
as the only means by which such work
can profitably be done. This being
true, it seems strange that farmers
have not seen the economy of keeping
mules instead of horses for farm work.
It is true th^t some farmers, scattered
here and thbre, have recognized thei:
advantages; yet, judging from the
number of advertisements of mules in
the stock papers in comparison with
those of horses, it is evident that
mules are not widely used—at least
as widely as they should be.
In the first place, two horses eat as
much as three mules, while two mules
will do as much work as three horses
of the same weight. Farmers who
keep mules know they eat less than
horses, but few have probably realized
the great difference in amount of feed
consumed. In an experiment the Ne
braska station, by keeping careful
account of the rations during a con
siderable period, found that it cost
2414 cents a day to keep each horse,
and only 1614 cents a day to keep each
mule, says a writer in Successful
Farming. On this basis it costs about
$90 a year to keep a horse and about
$60 a year to keep the humble mule.
When it comes to hard work, mules
are far superior to horses. They can
pull more than horses of the same
weight and can stand the strain much
longer. One breeder states that they
can pull a load almost twice as far
as a horse team in the same length
of time. They can stand continuous
hard work much better than horses,
and have greater recuperative power.
That is, they can do hard work day
after day and still be fresh tho next
■ day when horses are too fatigued to
: work.
Mules can stand more hardships
■ than horses and require less care.
! Indeed, it is surprising how well they
do under neglect and abuse. They
stand up much better than torses in
hot weather. They aro less liable to
sickness and disease and are hardly
ever troubled with spavins. They do
not founder from over-eating. They
are patient and will do any work that
a horse can do.
Two pther great advantages that
should not be overlooked by the pro
spective buyer are that mules can be
put to light work when less than two
years old, and are useful for twenty
to thirty years.
Mules are, as a rule, gentle. They
will eat out of the same trough with
other mules and not fight. Occasional
ly, mules run away, but when they
do, they never hurt themselves as
horses do. And when running in the
pasture, they seldom get cut on barbed
wire.
A further advantage is that they
grow more to uniform sizes and colors
than horses. If a man has a mule to
sell, he can get a better price than for
a horse, because mules are more eas
ily mated. Mules are invariably sound
and therefore marketable, while a
large majority of horses become un
sound and have to be sold at a dis
advantage. A three-year-old mule is
wTorth $250 and a span in their prime
from $500 to $800.
CAUSE OF DISEASE
AMONG LIVE STOCK
Lack of Care and Attention Is
Responsible for Much Trou
ble—Attend to Details.
Want of care is the prolific cause
of accident and disease among stock.
The master’s eye or the owner’s so
licitude are proverbially preventives
against trouble or waste; but if the
masters or the owners will not trouble
themselves to exercise the watchful
care needed, we may be sure no one
else will.
The careful farmer will never have
his teams brought in at night without
having their legs well rubbed down,
the sweat washed off the shoulders,
then watered, the stalls well bedded
and properly fed. Old horses, care
fully handled and fed, will outlast
young horses that are badly fed and
worked. In the dairy, the least falling
off in the yield of a cow should be the
cause of inquiry or observation until
the reason is found; for that there is
a reason we may be assured, sayu a
writer in Baltimore American. The
careful dairyman will have each cow’s
milk weighed and recorded at each
milking; this is the only way to find
out the profitable cows in the herd.
The feeding of the cows, sheep and
horses and hogs should be done by
the farmer or a competent hand, and
not by first one person and another.
Have regular hours for feeding, milk
ing and working. More and bettor
work can be done with less exertion
by man or animal.
The most prosperous farmer in our
neighborhood at a farmers’ meeting
stated that his success “was largely
owing to strict attention to little
things.” If this habit of close scrutiny
and observation becomes the rule in
stead of the exception, there will be
much less trouble and loss for farm
ers to complain of.
Fresh Air and Exercise Needed.
Breeding bulls, boars, rams and
stallions should have plenty of fresh
air, light (and exercise during the
winter. Our animals cannot develop
good bone, muscle, constitution, etc., if
they are compelled to spend the win
ter in the dark, filthy, poorly ventilat
ed pens and stables and not allowed
to exercise during the favorable
weather.
Roughage for Breeding Animals.
Clover, alfalfa and mixed hay cut
early and cured properly, are the best
kinds of roughage for breeding ani
mals of all kinds during the winter.
Get Rid of Poor Cows.
A good cow in the hands of a poor
dairyman is a poorer proposition than
a poor cow in the hands of a good
dairyman.
Both are very poor combinations,
and a good dairyman will not keep a
poor cow more than one season.
Efficiency.
The capacity of the soil is not to be
measured by its fertility alone, but
by the ability of the man behind the
farm to extract every dollar’s worth
there is in if.

PROPER FEEDS FOR
FATTENING SWINE
Much Material May Be Gathered
Up in Fall in Orchard, Gar
den and Elsewhere.
Flesh and fat are now made at
half the cost of grain when the
weather is cold and wet. Much food
may now be gathered up in the
orchard, garden and field, which costs
little, and would otherwise bo wasted.
Boil the wheat screenings from the
threshing machine with small potatoes
and mix with wheat bran; feed luke
warm to the shoats. After the slop is
eaten give a little old corn, just what
they will eat up clean. Experienced
feeders say that a better quality of
meat and at the least cost may be had
when old corn is the main grain fed
the last fattening month. Pork made
with soft corn is not cheaply made.
Keep the soft corn and nubbins for the
store shoats.
Corn fed to growing shoats, in con
nection with grass and clover will
make a better gain in proportion than
if either is fed alone. While slops are
a good feed, they should never be al
lowed to become too sour before feed
ing. An important item is to have a
dry shelter for the hogs and a clean
dry yard.
Another important matter is plenty
of pure water, wood ashes and corn
cob charcoal.
Shoats grazed during the summer
in clover and given a moderate
amount of bran and middlings made
into slop, fed slightly sour, and given
a liberal allowance of old corn and
pure water one month before butch
ering will make the choicest kind of
family meat and lard. The meat will
be firm, not over-fat. sweet and fine
grained, the fat making the best of
lard.
Plan to Induce Exercise.
Many swine breeders make a prac
tice of feeding their brood sows at
quite a distance from their sleeping
quarters, in order to induce them to
exercise freely; and I have found this
an excellent plan, for many sows be
come sluggish during pregnancy and
will not exercise unless compelled to.
Watch Sows and Litter.
Sows with a young litter should be
watched carefully, for there are many
sows that do not give enough milk to
start the pigs off well. In such cases
the youngsters should be fed a little
whole cow’s milk, warmed at first,
and later skim milk, with a handful of
shorts in it.
Exercise Is Beneficial.
Exercise is not only beneficial to
the muscular and maternal develop
ment of breeding sows, but it prevents
constipation, which is one of the most
serious problems we have to contend
with, if our sows are in good flesh con
dition.
Room for Sows and Ewes.
Brood sows and breeding ewes re
quire plenty of room and will thrive
best if separated in bunches, so as to
prevent crowding and fighting at the
troughs and feed racks.
MAKE CANDY AT HOME
CHEAPER AND GENERALLY BET
TER THAN CAN BE BOUGHT.
Suggestions Here That Are W#'l
Worth Making Note Of—Dipped
Chocolates Among the Best—
Various Ways to Prepare.
Homemade candies are cheaper
than those one buys in the shops. Of
course, dipped chocolates made at
home cost a good deal, but even they
do not cost as much as good choco
lates from the shops. And homemade
peanut brittle is as much cheaper, rel
atively, than homemade dipped choco
lates as “storemade" peanut brittle is
cheaper than good chocolates.
An inexpensive and delicious sort
of peanut brittle is made from shelled
peanuts and granulated sugar. Spread
the peanuts, shelled and skinned and
broken in halves, in buttered pans.
Melt granulated sugar and cook it un
til it turns brown, but do not let it
burn. As soon as it is all brown, but
before any of it has begun to burn,
pour it over the nuts. A few drops of
vinegar may be added just before re
moving the sugar from the fire.
Dipped chocolates are most easily
made with an uncooked foundation.
Break the white of an egg in a big
bowl and add to it three tablespoon
fuls of cream. Mix a little and add a
pinch of cream tartar and confection
ers' sugar enough to make a stiff
cream. Then divide it into several
smaller bowls and flavor each differ
ently'.
Into one pour a little very strong
coffee, ^or coffee extract, and add
enough more sugar to stiffen suffi
ciently to handle with a teaspoon.
Then form with a teaspoon and place
in little mounds on waxed paper. If
y^ou add enough confectioners' sugar
to make the cream dry enough to han
dle with the fingers it does not taste
quite so soft and creamy as when it
is handled softer with a spoon.
To another batch of the fondant
add some raspberry jam and form into
mounds. To another add grated
orange rind and a little juice. To an
other add essence of peppermint. To
another the juice from maraschino
cherries. To another chopped nuts.
To another cocoa powder enough to
color rich chocolate. Add enough sug
ar always to make the cream stiff
enough to handle with a spoon. A lit
tle vanilla may be added to any of the
other flavorings. Stiffen some of the
fondant and mold it around candied
fruit and nuts and maraschino cher
ries drained of their juice.
Let the cream forms harden over
night in a cold place, and the next day
melt the special coat chocolate sold
for the purpose. Don't use it too hot.
Take each form on a fork, dip it into
the chocolate arxl slip on waxed paper
to dry.
Decorate the tops of some of the
chocolates with nuts and candied
fruits.
Fruit Puffs With Butter Sauce.
Make a biscuit mixture by sifting a
pint of flour with two tablespoonfuls
of baking powder and one teaspoonful
of salt; add two tablespoonfuls of
shortening ar.d mix to a soft dough
with sweet milk. Put a tablespoonful
of the mixture into a buttered cup,
add sweetened berries of any kind,
then another tablespoonful of dough.
Steam for a half hour. Serve with a
sauce made by creaming two table
spoonfuls of butter with a cupful of
powdered sugar and the juice of a
small lemon. Pour on half a cupful of
boiling water and a cupful of the
fruit. Serve with the sauce poured
over each puff.
Corn Mexican.
Peel and slice a small onion and fry
in a little butter or dripping. Peel
and cut up two tomatoes and one
green pepper freed from the seeds.
Drop them into the skillet with the
onion and cook for 20 minutes, then
add the corn cut from three medium
sized ears, and season to taste. Cover
and simmer till the corn is tender.
Serve very hot.
Tomatoes, Italian Style.
Peel and cut up enough tomatoes to
make a quart; chop a sweet red pep
per and a small onion coarsely and
add to the tomatoes; simmer all to
gether for an hour, then add a fourth
of a pound of macarc ti broken in
small pieces and cook till tender, sea
son and add a tablespoonful of butter.
Grate a little cheese over the top when
serving.
Fried Chicken.
Cut the chicken in pieces, lay it in
salt and water, which change several
times; roll each piece in flour; fry in
very hot lard or butter, season with
salt and pepper; fry parsley with them
also. Make a gravy of cream seasoned
with salt, p^)per and a little mace,
thickened with a little flour in the pan
in which the chickens were fried, pour
ing off the lard.
Substitute for Cream.
If a recipe for soup calls for cream,
and it is not at hand, try milk and
egg as a substitute. Boil a cupful
of milk, and when It is cooled add a
beaten egg. Strain, and add a table
spoonful of butter. Add this mixture
to the soup, bring it to the boiling
point and serve at once..
Grapes With Orange Juice.
Cut the Tokay and white grapes in
halves after washing and draining
them well and extract the seeds,
place in sherbet cups and sprinkle
lightly with sugar. Squeeze the juice
of halt an orange over each cup and
serve very cold.
Chicken Soup.
Three pints chicken broth, ten pep
percorns, two slices carrot, one slice
onion, on blade mace. Cook one-half
hour, add one pint milk, three table
spoonfuls each butter and flour. Salt
and pepper to taste.
Roasted Cheese.
Slice graham or white bread thin
ard cover with slices of Swiss cheese,
sprinkle with paprika and salt and
bake in a hot oven till the cheese Is
melted

How to Heal
Skin Diseases
A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive,
home treatment for people suffering
Itu VVliWlliU, llUfe
worm, rashes and
similar itching, burn
ing skin troubles.
At any reliable
druggist’s get a jar
of resinol ointment
and a cake of resi
nol soap. These are not at all expen
sive. With the resinol soap and warm
water bathe the affected parts thor*
oughly, until they are free from crusts
and the skin is softened. Dry very
gently, spread on a thin layer of the
resinol ointment, and cover with a
light bandage—if necessary to protect
the clothing. This should be done
twice a day. Usually the distressing
itching and burning stop with the first
treatment, and the skin soon becomes
clear and healthy again.
WHY “ANURIC”
IS AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATHI
Sufferers from Backache, Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble
Before an Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and re
port whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells, or the twinges
and pains of lumbago, rheumatism and
gout. The urine is often cloudy, full
of sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three
times a night. This is the time you
should consult some physician of wide
experience—such as Dr. Pierce, of the
Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10 cents for
sample package of his new discovery—
"Anuric.” Write him your symptoms
and send a sample of urine for test.
Experience has taught Dr. Pierce that
“Anuric” is the most powerful agent
in dissolving uric acid, as hot water
melts sugar, besides being absolutely
harmless and is endowed with other
properties, for it preserves the kid
neys in a healthy condition by thor
oughly cleansing them. Checks the de
generation of the blood-vessels, as well
as regulating blood pressure. "Anuric"
is a regular insurance and life-saver
for all big meat eaters and those whc
deposit lime-salts in their joints. Ask

Pierce, in 50-cent packages.
