Mary Edna Peters
The funeral of Mary Edna Peters, 60 years of age, of Car- bon, Alberta, whose death oc- curred on Februnry 15, took place at Shaver's tuneral chur. ch, Calgary, Thursday after- noon at 3 o'clock, Rev, Mr. Mc. Kelvie, at Carbon, and Rev. G. A. Dickson, of Knox United Church officiated,
Mr. Dickson, said that there is no mystery about death, Birth is greater mystery. Death is only « mystery be- cause we possess a finite mind, and we are little children in trying to compare ourselves, or to understand the plans of the infinite. Mr Dickson comfort- ed the berenved members of the famlly with those beautiful words, “Precious in the sight of God is the death of his
saints,’’

Sheep Industry
Many farmers in Alberta are now running small flocks of sheep on their farms, The fact that the day of the small farm flock hus arrived, is indicated by the fact that the Southern Alberta Wool Growers’ Associ- ation now has more than 350 members, in the place of some 60 .members five years ago. There is plenty of room for ex- pansion in the sheep industry on the basis of the small farm flock idea, however, for Canada, as yet is producing less than 5,000,000 dollars worth otf wool, while it imports some 46,000,000 dollars worth of woolen goods. Farmers who desire to start farm flocks are advised to write to the Alberta Department of Agriculture at Edmonton for pumphlets,

“Suppose you were broughy up In a square room without windows, and nothing but chest weights on the walls. No chance to talk with any- body, or read any books. Always ex- actly the same kind of food. Then imagine being pushed out into the world, full-grown.

Corn Excels Barley For Laying Hens
Results of Test at Lethbridge Experl- mental Station Is Given
In an effort to find a cheap home- grown food for laying hens that could be substituted for imported corn the Lethbridge, Alberta, Experimen- tal Station made a test comparing barley with corn in the grain ration. Four hundred and fifty pullets were used for the experiment. To half the number the ration consisted of one part cracked corn, one part crushed oats und two parts wheat as scratch- feed, and equal pars of bran, shorts, middlings, oat-chop, meat meal and corn meal as a dry mash. The other half of the flock received a similar ration, differing only in the substitu- tlon of barley for the corn both in the seratch-feed and the mash. The usual additions of salt and charcoal were added to the mash in each case, In the summer a slightly higher propor- tion of wheat was used than in the winter. Both pens had access to alfalfa runs in the fall, spring and summer and in the winter were given cabbage, alfalfa leaves and mangels in liberal quntitles. Only water was glv- en for drink.
The results of the test were greatly in favor of the corn-fed lot both as to egg production and vitality of the

N. Carver of Iar- vard University in January “Current History.” “It is the machine that makes the high wages and the lght work of the present day and the still higher wages and still lighter work of the future possible, since the world over a high product per worker goes with a high wage rate and a low pro- duct per worker with a low wage rate. It is the machine that is relieving | housekeepers, small shopkeepers and farmers of the soul-killing drudgery to which they formerly were slaves.

Place in Rotation to Seed Fall R Fall Rye
Yielda
Better When Rotated With Barley Instead of Wheat
Conclusions reached at Lacombe, Alberta, experimental station relative to the place in rotation of seeding fall rye are of interest and value. As given in the last report of the Superin- tendent, Mr. F. EL. Reed, these in brief are:
Fall rye does not work in well In a rotation where wheat precedes {t.
Barley is a better crop than wheat to precede fall rye in the rotation.
Pioughed barley stubble has advan- tage over disked barley stubble in a wet fall. In a dry fall the reverse is the case. Taking ono year with an- other the expense of ploughing the barley stubble is not justified.
Oats for grain“or green feed is not & suitable crop to precede fall rye in the rotation, the yleld of the rye be- ing lower than whero it follows barley or even wheat. |
An annual pasture of 2 bushels oats | and 1 bushel fall rye has been found | a most dependable pasture. |
Advisabllity of seeding fall rye on} sod that has preduced a crop of hay during the current season, and has been ploughed after harvest for the} fall rye seed-bed, depends largely up- on the amount of molsture in the ground and the amount of preciplta- tion.

Wealth Told i Abies
in Ten Years Alberta’s Registration Increased by 54,000
When some bluo ruin artist stands up and tells you that Alberta is not what {t used to be, just tell him that today Alberta’s automobile registra- tion exceeds 64,000 wherens in 1916, or ten short years ago, it was less than 10,000.
The yalue of the automobiles driy- ing tho roads and the city streets of Alberta today is $60,000,000. The money to buy those cars has been pro- duced in Alberta.
The annual bill for keeping these automobiles going is, at a conserva- tive estimate of $25 per month per car, $19,200,000 or $7,000,000 more than the provincial budget of expenditure.
The depreciatign upon these cars, at $200 each, adds another $12,800,000 to the bill, making a total automobile bill of $32,000,000 annually besides the money expended for the purchase of new cars, Last year 11,000 new cars were added to the Alberta list at a valuation of $14,000,000, so that in 1926 our total automobile expenditure reached $13,000,000.—Lethbridge Tler- ald.

Marsh Lands for | for F Fur fay
Saskatchewan — aevernmalt Taking
Over Area Required In Province
Negotiations between the Saskatch- ewan and Dominion governments, re- garding the leasing of marsh lands for fur farming purposes, have now been completed and arrangements are being made to turn over certain crown lands for this industry, Hon. C, M. Hamilton, provincial minister of agrl- culture announces.
Large areas of marsh lands con- trolled by the crown are available for fur farming in the northern part of Saskatchewan, and there is reported to be a moderate demand for such land.
The fur farming industry is so in- timately bound up with the control of wild life, for which the provinclal authorities are responsible, that it Was considered impossible by the Dominion Government for one to be divorced fromm the other. An agree- ment was consequently reach®d whereby the Saskatchewan govern: ment is authorized to take over avail: able Dominion land in the province re- quired for the development of the in- dustry.
Has Abundance of Good Coking Coal
Plenty in Alberta and B.C. for Indus-} trial Purposes
That there is plenty of coking coal |
in Alberta and in British Columbia for industrial purposes was the statement | made by C. C. Ross, Dominion Gov: | ernment engineer, Calgary, in reply to the assertion of Hon. T. A. Crerar in a speech in Montreal that there would be difficulty in industrial development Canada largely because there is no coking coal or iron be- tween Cape Breton and British Colum: | bia,
Mr. Ross stated that all the big {mines tn the Crow’s Nest Pass, which | lies paruly In Alberta and partly in|
| British Columbia, could produce cok- jing coal and that the International |
Coal Company at Coleman, Alta., was | actually producing coke, In addition, the Ford-Burns mines |

As for iron, Mr. Ross did not know of any big deposits in Alberta or Bri | tish Columbia,

Wonderful Progress Made
By the Dairy
Industry in
The Three Prairie Provinces
It {s only in recent years that the Prairle Provinces of Canada have tak- en seriously to dairying, but the tn- dustry has made wonderful progress, and the manufacturer of dairy pro- ducts in Western Canada has become one of the most pronounced features of Canadian agriculture. The vast areas of Western Canada still unoccupled or still devoted entirely to grain growing are well adapted to the production of milk, and in all probability the great- est expansion of the Canadian dairy industry {n future will take place in these provinces. A feature of the but- ter made on the prairies is {ts excel- lent keeping quality, a very important consideration now that there {s a sur-
plus for export, The fine quallty of the |
datry products of Manitoba, Saskatch- ewan and Alberta {fs also shown by their popularity in open competition The entries of these provinces in in-
ternational and Interproyincial ex- ibitions have repeatedly won leading prizes wherever shown.
Between 1900 and 1924 the butter production of British Columbia, Al berta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba increased from three to fifty million
pounds and the cheese production of 1% million pounds was doubled. Al- berta has now replaced Manitoba as the leading dairy province of, the west and the Saskatchewan figures show a doubling of production’ every five years. It 4s predicted that by 1930 the production of Western butter will ex ceed 100 million pounds of which pos sibly three quarters will be avatlable for export. Such an exportable surplus would definitely place Canada among the world’s outstanding dairying tries.
The estimated current | duction is as follows:
