"1'nke a mcsMige mid a token,
'I o these (1 s, ant 1 1 ionds of mine."
If it wore possible to send a token I
would like to send a sample of the
bjuutltul weather we are having heie
in Alborta. Every day is a repeater;
cool, frosty nights and warm sunshiny
days, with no wind nor storms of any
kind to mar the serenity. I sometimes
wondered In Maj and .Juno why It was
called "Sunny Alberta," but it is no
woudor now, the old settlers say it is
characteristic of the country to have
such weather and last year and year
befoio were the exceptions instead of
the rule. The loads ate dry and one
e.m go tinywheto without fear of mud
Tf Alec Philips weie heie now, I could
easily show him the "two feet of dry
ground to stand on", or two miles eith
er for that matter and the live feet of
wiow "Hob" Potter piomiscd me for
November 1st has so far tailed to ma
teriulizo in the minutest form Harvest
is over and the threshing well begun
My oats nvoiagod about i bushels per
a -re; some tlelds went much mote
Mine are tin eshed while some of the
big tlelds aie in the stack, which may
make sotuo dilToi once I ha e ."00 bush
els of potatoes fioin one ticto and u
lialf of giound and as they aie all in
the cellar I know what the yield was
for them Wheat in t his pait of Alber
ta is not the best The yield is fairly
go til, but is badly stiui'k with smut,
caused T supp s by so much nun in
June
It has boon in my a year since I saw,
i l Xobr iska, such good feed, the last of
October tor stock as tlieto is heie
Cnttlo and lioises that inn out have
nut ha I a tnoi.t hful l'hn. and will not
need any lor sometime to come unless
it com s a heavy snow and I never miw
fatter stock aujw heie at any time of
the year.
Prices are good for most everything;
two year-old steers that will weigh 1000
pounds d most of them do, are
worth W and three- ear olds aro worth
from forty to tifty dollars. Oats aro
thirty conts por bushel, potatoes forty
cents, eggs twenty conts por doon, and
butter oighteou to twenty cents por
pound Thoro has boon lots of hay
put up and yet it is woith from four to
slxdollaisa ton for shipping to the
mountains, tho gi oat market for Albor
ta for nearly everything
Thero Is a ory largo immigiation
into Albotta this fall, mostly from tho
States and a largo number of tho visit
ois either buying laud or taking up
homesteads Of course pvcyono who
comes is not satisfied but in tho main
It is homesickness that takes people
back moie than anything else. I saw
some voiy bad cases of homesickness
this summer.
Mr- Hioomlioldcut 110 acies of hay
on his farm this year besides quite a
crop of oats nnd barley and has a good
sized pasture on it besides Ho only
had 100 acr s of land, so you see tho
