Prince Albert Pally Herald Tells This
Story, of Thos. Bane, formerly at
Morris T4wnrhip, eon of henry Bone
of Brit Line.
Thomas W. Bone is still a young
man, t do not it pw his exact age,
but it is around forty-two years. It
Is said that in this present day a plan
Is a boy until he is forty. 1 therefore
40 not with to Igive a wrong nnpres-
slon by referring to "Tom" as an old
rimer in the Valparaiso district. He
has been long In the district. He came
in young—on foot with a pack on his
back. Today if you went out and
captured the firstthousand farmers
that hove in sight and lookd into their
real circumstances, 1 am convinced that
if Tom Bate was amongst them he
would show .up as probably the best
off of any of them, He 'turned the
corner' eight years ago, :since then the
dollars have been working for Tom,'
while Tom worked for still more dol.
tars, For he is a worker, brat, last
and all the time,.
But there has always been this dif-
ference with Tom—he has always been
muster of his circumstances. lie has
always steered a definite course. He
bas never deleted. He set out to reach
a well-defined objective—and achieved
it, He knew exactly what he wanted
And he strove for that one thing—and
got it.
He never thought of failure. If times
were bad he went out to work so that
he would not go behind. He put to
no less than seven winters working in
lumber camps in the bush and return-
• ing to the land as soon as spring
came.
He took up his homestead of 160
acres in 1904. He Is still on it. He
resisted the allurements to be a big
farmer, but concentrated upon being
a good farmer. This is where his
success lay. He never burdened him-
self with debts for land. He shunned
debts. His policy was not to 'look
big,' but to 'make good.'
Came West.
Tom Bone is a farmer's son. He
has been used to farming a'11 his life,
Ha heard of the opportunity of the
West and came West. When he took
up his homestead it was a swamp
covered with thick brush, There was
no railroad. There was no fine gov-
ernment automobile road in those days
such as 'passes his gate today. Tonere
was only a mere trail in the bush,
skirting around sloughs and not at-
tempting tc follow the line. This is
what he came out to, when as a young
manhe left his father's home and
struck out for himself. With packs
on backs, he and a man named Jellis
walked from Irwood to Tisdale. Jellis,
I am told, le now located three miles
out of Star City and is a richman. His
homestead was near to Tom's home-
stead, but he sold it long ago and
bought his pfesent holding. This ,is
what I am told. I am not yet person-
ally acquainted with Mr. Jellis, but
hope to soon.
Tom Bone's first house was a tent.
His first horses were oxen. He got a
job clearing the railroad right-of-way
or brush for a two mile stretch close
to his Homestead. The railroad was
under construction. With his oxen he
cleared and ploughed a small strip on
his homestead near to the present gov-
ernment highway. One day two men
stopped at C. E. Green's homestead
,which was nearby. They also came
from Huron County, Ontario, where
Tom had come from. When they
saw his oxen plowing the narrow strip
in the thick bush they said: "The way
you are getting along, in ten years
you will be riding In buggy." Their
'prophecy came true In part., He was
driving in a buggy, but this says nath-
tng about his automobile and his trac-
tor outfit. In those early days there
were no bridges across the Carrot
River and Mr. Bone used to swim his
oxen across and afterwards pull the
wagon over with •a rope, the banks
being very steep.
His Experiences
Tom left his father's home in
,Huron County to become a farmer—
a real farmer—In the West. tie found
that it would take a ,long time to get
his homestead cleared of brush, and the
swamp water dried off sufficiently for
wheat growing, so he rented some land
on which to put in 'his first crop. From
1911 to1914he re ande
rented fanned
the WIlson quarter -section, west of
him. From 1914 to tht7 he farmed
the land adjoining his homestead on
the east side. From 1917 to 1919 he
rented ante Pringhomestead 's to the south.
He had a hundred and ten acres in
wheat. This gave him his real start
financially. In the meantime he had
been gradually getting his own home-
stead cleared and plowed, and after
1919 he did not need to rent any more
land, but tarmed his own land.
In the fall of 1911 Tom went home
to Ontario for a holiday. On his re-
turn In 1912 he brought with him six
pure bred brown leghorn hens. These
hens have been a great factor in. his
success. They soon increased and be-
came one hundred. He 'hes a hundred
'hens or more, butt never less, from
that time on. They lay eggs by the
bushel all the year around. The eggs
for years have paid all this store bills
and more besides, He has a credit for
the eggs standing to this account at the
store all the time, People sometimes
some long distances to secure a sett-
leg of eggs from Tom's famous flack
of brown leghorns. His pure bred
rooster has been neck -named "Robin-
son" by some off these folk—they
say because it "crew so" (Orasoe.)
So, 'with the store 'bill paid by the
bens, and the farm being of a size
Which Tom Ovid handle practically
single-handed, cutting out most of the
-cost of hired help, the grain money
w'as capital in the bank, year alter year

Now Independent
Toni is now in a position of inde-
pendence, He has money, like spuds
!n the cellar. No—that Is wrong. He
is ttuo clear -brained business man to
hoard it. Every. dollar Is out working
hard, "doing its bit," making 'more
money. I do not know how he in-
vests it, but I do know that Tom loaned
a neighbor two thousand dollars. Tom
is a generous kind of man, and likes
to see his neighbors successful. They
would all be successful if they took a
leaf out of his book—fixed for them-
selves an objective and worked con-
sistently towards it, never wavering.
Today Tom has a beautiful home,
Is good as any in the country. Every-
thing is kept in the top-notch of re-
pair, painted and always fresh look -
Ing. He uses a Waterloo Boy tractor
to aid .him in his field work, and etas
some fine horses weighing around
seventeen hundred pounds each.
Tom would have made good in any
other line of business. He makes
good In all he undertakes, and the
simple secret is: a clear vision of what
he wants to achieve; lots of industry;
good judgment, good management, and
self-restraint. These qualities will
carry any man through to success,
whatever maybe his line of life.
Thomas W. Borne is a young man
yet with a career hefrre him. All he
has ha has worked Inc-. He is scrun
ulnuely just in ail his dealings, He
is popular in the district. He is a
trustee of the Caribou seboni. Every.
one has a good word for Tom.
Force of Example
His Secret
The piiucipai vel ue of these biog-
raphies of living men in our own
North Saekatchetva a country is that
we may consider the ways of these suc-
ceeeful men and see by what means
they succeeded. Totes Bone, coming
in on foot, with a pack on his back, to
a wilderness Bird swamp, and making
gond on a quarter -section, withiu a
few years, is an inspiration for all who
are struggling for .-access. By his i-
chievemettt he is encouraging and
helping all of us to be of good courage
and to keep our eye fixed upon inevit-
able triumph over all obstacles—the
battle won.
Thank you, Tom. Your example is
inspiring and its lesson sinks in. We
are all indebted to you

so that the work may successfully be
carried on.
A great deal of correspondence was'
submitted and many cases discussed
and advice given as to the best method
of dealing with them.
Two children were placed in homes
during the month' and Two others re.
ceived. -
There are nine children at present in
the Shelter, girls 5 to '14 and boys 7
10 41 for whom homes are earnestly
