I — Conditions in Western Canada Please Farmers. Seeding Has Been Begun Earlier Than for Many Years, and Soil ls in Perfect Shape. With weather conditions highly fa- vorable, the farmers of Western Can- ada, with the exception probably of a portion of Manitoba, have completed seeding from ten to fifteen days earller than for some years past. In some parts of Manitoba there were floods which delayed seeding, but they have abated, and left the land in good shape for quick work and speedy germina. tion. In Saskatchewan soil conditions for seeding were never better, With a generous quantity of snow, which after melting left needed moisture, and an- other snowstorm after seeding was finished, there was an {deal condition created. From all parts of Alberta there came the best of reports as to rainfall and snow moisture, leaving the the prospects of a good crop. Spring, as in most other parts of the continent, was backward, but notwith- standing this, as has been sald, farmers were to get on the land than for some years. In fact, seeding able may seem remarkable, when It is spring seeding for several days later, Reports to hand on the 16th of May state that wheat is up abave ground in a great many are being sown, and Farm labor was scarce for awhile, but the demand has fallen off. corn than those paid for special work, The increasing tendency to employ help by ithe vear is evidence that farmers are but are going out into other branches, such dairying, The prospects in all portions of West- ern Canada were brighter than at present. Information regarding the condition of the crops at any time will as stock raising, etc. never be sent on request made to any Cana dian government agent.~—Advertise ment.
