PRAIRIE REPORTS. • Harvesting Will be General by Last Week of August. A despatch from Winnipeg says: The crop report on Wednesday cov- ering the three Prairie Provinces is most gratifying, the feature being the remarkable progress made in the last two weeks. The grain is filling well. The barley harvest has started at most points. Fall wheat in Alberta is largely in shock, and the old fields of spring wheat are already cut. Harvesting will be general from August 12th to 22nd, the 15th' being the clate•given when the majority' of points will com- mence. It. means that with aver- age harvest weather the great bulk of the crop will be of contract grade. Should the West produce two hun- dred million bushels of hard wheat, as there seems every probability it will, it means that this season's crop of Western Canada will the dominating factor in the world's markets. • UNUSUAL. • • "Hew' s, your inSiannia,• Wgrse nd wersel 'Sleep Whelk" timefie e;,et: 'ma a!' • ELECTRICITY FOE OF HUNGER Currents in "High Frequency" to Take Place of Food.

Bergonie recalled the experiments of Professor Ber- thelot, who claimed that within a generation steaks and other foods would be replaced by small pills containing the necessary chemical constituents to sustain life. Ber- gonie added that what chemistry had not accomplished electricity will achieve through "high fre- quency treatment." Therefore we may shortly be Ordering five electric currents at intervals of seven sec- onds instead of soup. COUNTERFEIT BILLS. Crude Fakes of $1 and $2 Notes Haae•Been Circulated. A despatch from Toronto says: Counterfeits of Canadian Govern- ment one -dollar and two -dollar notes have been put in circulation in Toronto and Hamilton. The police have come across a few of the bad bills, and are on the look- out for more of them, and for those who are sending them out. Only a few are as. yet known to have been put in Toronto, but it has been learned that quite a number have made their ampearence in Hamil- ton. The bills are very easy of de- tection. They are photographs of the eriginals on paper of a much more inferior quality than the true notes. The greens and blacks on the etchings are not of the same strong tones as those of the origin- als, but appear washy, especially the greens. BATONS TIRrn TOO FREELY. Shake-up in St. John Poliee Force Imminent. THE PEAT INDUSTRY. Hines Department Will Leave it t� Private Enterprise. A despatch from Ottawa says: The Mines Branch of the Govern- ment Department of Mines on 'Wed- nesday announced that its demon- stration of the commercial possi- bilities of peat as a fuel in Canada had been successfully completed, and that henceforth the activities of the branch wou'd be applied in another direction, probably the OLIO- . nonne production and testing of fuel, concerning which the depart- ment already has a man in tl..e West. The peat industry in Can- ada will now become a matin;' of private enterprise. There are two big plants under construetion, 'Cale at Alfred, Ont., and another at Farnham, Que., which are expected to supply Ottawa and Montreal and possibly.ether cities with cheap fuel.
