wheat from a twelve acre field.

a year ago and now ohe can see field
of fall wheat from five acres to 250
acres. Oats and barley do well also
and some have tried spring wheat,
Cattle are low in price this 'fall, that
is cows and young cattle. Three or
four year olds will bring from $33
to $43 off the range. All we get for
fat steers ' the spring is four cerits
and for grain fed, 41-2 cents. Piga
are a good price and there IS a ready
market for them,. Some have gone
into pig raising pretty strong. One

Home From the West.--0ou.nty Com-
missioner John G. Grieve, and Mrs.
Grieve, of McKillop, returned on Set-
urda,y, from an extended visit to
the west. They were on the train
which was wrecked at Sudbury, but
apart from this unpleasant exper-
ience, they enjoyed their trip thor-
oughly. ,They went as far west as
Calgary, and as far north as Ed-
monton, and saw a good deal of the
country in between. Mr. Grieve lik-
ed Alberta better than Manitoba. He
says they can grow great crops of
wheat and oats there, and tells of
one field that averaged 00 bushels
to the acre; while he liked the Clim-
ate better. They spent considerable
time with the Messrs. Scarlett, in
the vicinity of Innisfail, -.Alberta. The
Messrs. Scarlett have large lead
holdings,and go extensively into
cdttle raising. Mr. Grieve says the
boom in many of the weetern towns
Is marvellous, and although he did•
sot go out with the Intention of buy -
Ing anything, came beak the owner
of some Regina town lots, out of
which he expects tp make his ex-
penses. Although ae great country,
Mr. Grieve has no de re to live there.
He says a man wh is comfortably
located here can en oy life much
better than they do in the west; and
thinks a men who has a geed farm
here would be foolish to up
and go where they have not nearly
the comforts or conveniences that
the Ontario farmer has.

From Saskatchewan. -jt subscriber
writing from Saskatoon, -Saskatche-

-your valuable -paper I notice that a
man who has recently -returned to
Ontario from this country and who
had been out here on one of the har-
vesters' excursions -says .that while
there is plenty of work on the rail-
ways there is little or no employ-
- ment, for farm hands in Winter and
that farm laborers are not required
here except in harveet and thresh-
ing. Now I beg to differ from this
writer. A good man can always
get plenty of employment in thie
country at good wages, and at
other work too besides on the rail-
ways. I know of many 'farmers .in
Ulla vicinity who were looking for
good Ontario boys. -to drive their
horses and being unable to get them

knew nothing of the work required
of them. I an afraid that the re-

labor :is scarce here got -homesick or

our prairie country as many of the
Ontario people seem to have a Treed -
less dread of our winters, Which are
not any harder to endure than are the
'winters in their own Province. Let
me also say that this is the coun-

Our noya,—For some reason the
boys in our Allege have obtained a
reputation that was not altogether
complimentary for their conduct dur-
ing public meetings. Whether it was
deserved or not in the past we are
not prepared to say, but we can cer-
tainly vouch for their behaviour
now. Within the past couple of
weeks two entertainments have been,
held here. On each occasion the
buildings were crowded; and yet the
order was of the very best, and that
at a time when, with sitting room at
a big premium. it might have been
expected that there would have been
some commotion. But such was not
the case on these occasions and we
think the boys are to be highly com-
mended for their excellent conduct
under not too favorable conditions.
That Ts right boys. Keep it up, you
can put to shame many' places that
consider themselves a little better
than the rest of us.
Foresters' Night. -Thursday night
of last week was Foresters' night in
our burg, and every person for miles
around was out. The occasion was
the oyster supper and entertainment
given by the Foresters' lodge of this
village. Supper was served in the,
basement of the Methodist Church
frorn six to eight o'clock, and dur-
ing the entire time the waltere were
kept busy. The ladies of Constance
neighborhood have a great reputa-
tion to sustain, and they did it to
perfection this night. After sup-
per an adjournment was made to the
hall, where the entertainment waa
held. - When Mr. Bert Stephenson, who
acted ad 'chairman for the evening,
took the chair, the ball was packed to
the doom, and a number were unable
to get in. While the supper was be
the very best the programme fur-
nish d was in full keeping, and cer-
tainly every person should have been
mor than delighted with the entire
evening. Mr. C. LeRoy Kenny, of
Toronto was the star of the evening,
and his comic songs, witty sayings
and funny costumes and poses kept
the u ,d le4ce in' the best a 'good
