BABY'S TERRIBLE SUFFERING
"When my baby was six months old,
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to itch and
burn, and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pimples which
would open aud run, making large
Bores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell off, and the sores were over
the entire body, causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come off when I removed his
ehirt.
"We tried a great many remedies,
but nothing would help him, till a
friend induced me to try the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. I used the Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment but a short
time before I could see that he was
improving, and in six weeks' time ho
was entirely cured. He had suffered
about six weeks before we tried the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things, and
doctors, too. I think the Cuticura Rem
edies will do all that is claimed for
them, and a great deal more."
(Signed) Mrs. Noble Tubman, Dodsou,
Mont., Jan. 2S, 1911. Although Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment are sold by
druggists and dealers everywhere, a
sample of each, with 32 page book,

CANADA'S IMMENSE
WHEAT FIELDS
THE ATTRACTION FOR THREE
TRANSCONTINENTAL RAIL
WAYS.
Last August there visited the Cana
dian west the vice-president of the
largest individual hardware company
in the United States. As his firm havo
a turnover of millions, and deals ex
tensively with farm implements, this
man took a deep interest in crop con
ditions in Canada, and on his return
he embodied his findings in an article
for the Hardware Reporter. This ar
ticle should be *f special interest to
farmers.
The writer speaks of the importance
of the spring -wheat crop of Western
Canada. He might also have spoken
of the importance of the oat crop and
also of the winter wheat crop, as well
as barley. Winter wheat during tho
past few years has been a great suc
cess, and experiments have shown
that it can be grown with success in
almost any portion of the three prov
inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta. IJut apart from this, the !
spring wheat crop is the one generally j
grown, and all who know anything of I
grain, anyone who has had anything I
to do with markets, knows or has
heard of the high character of this
cereal and the splendid yields that aro
annually produced. Reproducing from
this article:—
"In a land of such great sweep, and
of such difference in soil and climate,
there are many resources, but none
are at present of the same overwhelm
ing importance as tho spring wheat
crop. In the interminable prairie I
stretches of tho northwest provinces ;
it is tho one absorbing topic of inter- ;
est and of conversation during its
growing and its harvesting, for upon |
its success or failure hangs the weal '
or woe of a large part of the Domin
ion. Its influence extends far down !
into the United States, drawing thou- j
sands of farmers northwards with the i
lure of cheap lands, but likewise be- j
yond the great lakes, even to the easy I
going maritime provinces, calling the i
flower of their young men to its op- !
portunities. Development in these '
prairie provinces goes on at high pres
sure for everything hangs on the out- |
come of spring wheat. Success has
emboldened the raisers of this one all
important crop, and each year there
is further incursion into those north
ern fields that only a short time ago
were regarded as Arctic wastes. The i
Canadian Northwest seems to be ono :
of those modern agricultural examples
set forth to drive the final nail in the
coffin of that ancient Malthusian de
lusion that population tends to outrun
the means of subsistence, since the
only fear now among Canadian econ
omists is as to the danger of over
stocking tho wheat market. O'nly
about two and one-half per cent of
possible arable lands in the northwest
provinces is now under cultivation,
and this year the crop promises to
be close to 200,000,000 bushels, so j
that your imagination and your arith
metic can easily supply the answer -as i
to the possible or even probable out
come."
During the months of July and Au
gust the weather was unfavourable
and the production of a 200 million
yield of wheat will not likely be real- J
ized, but even with this, the threshing
reports coming to hand show that the '
crop will be a splendidly paying one.
