As a rule a farmer in a new counâ€" try does not get nearly so much as he might from his farm. Why should he ? Land is cheap. If he wants to get larger returns he can easily get more land." Soihe reasons. He aims, therefore, rather .to increase the size of his farm than to increase the output from the land he has. But will not intensive farming pay in a new country ?° â€" Is it not better for a farmer to double the production on the land he has rather than douâ€" ble the size of his farm to attain this end ?

One farmer who has made a great success by farming inâ€" tensively in this new country is Wilâ€" liam Gilbert. Hisâ€" farm at Stony Plain, Alberta, about twenty miles west of Edmonton, is being made to produce to the limit, and yet, at the same time, is being conserved to the utmost, because the main products are butter, milk, pork mutton and Mr. (ilbert hails from England, whore the farms, as a rule, are conâ€" siderably smaller than those in Canâ€" ada"or the United States, There he spent his early life, and learned a good deal ahout the dairying and stock raising businesses. He came to Canada in 1904, taking up a homeâ€" stead in the West, to which he added another quarter section, so that for a long time he was farming three hundred and twenty acres. About five years ago, however, he sold this farm ‘and bought the one he now occupies at Stony Plain, consisting of one hundred and sixty acres. The land was rougzh, low lying, and had more than seventy acres of meéadow. In fact. it was considered more or wool WANTED William Gilbert‘s Home and Farm at Stony Plain, Alberta. less worthless, as land is rated in Western Canada. Mr. Gilbert thought something could be done with it, however. And he was right. Durâ€" ing the five years it has been in his possession, the proceeds from this land have enabled him to spend more than ten thousand dollars in various kinds of improvements, such as clearing the land, ditching, erecting a silo and barns. The farm is now in such a state that it will carry more stock than some farms four times as large will maintain, In addition to his work horses, he has kept as many as three hundred hogs, one hundred sheep and between twenty and fifty head of cattle at the same time on this farm. His aim has been to intensify as much as possible, raising cnly the best stock he can obtain. The National records show that Mr. Gilbert has sold more pure bred Berkshire <© hogs than any other breeder in Canada. He is the first Alberta breeder to sell a herd boar to the United States. He says the whole secret of producing stock of this quality is to breed nothing but the best. When he started in the bog business he scoured the Amerâ€" icag) continent in quest of herd boars and bought the two best sires that he could got in the United States. One is Ames Rival 148. whose half Winter Apples Al1 Winter apples ~are uniformally a good crop, it is said, but Greenings and Baldwins are of an exceptionally fine quality. The Northern Spies and that delectable apple known as the Snow, the queen of table fruit, are alâ€" so reported as being of exceptional merit as to quality and of an average yield. Russets, gradually becoming extinct, are making such a good showing that it should encourage fruit growers to include a greater number of this variety in their orchards. Develop London Market Owing to the shortage, estimated at many thousands of barrels, in Nova Scotia, of apples suitable for shipping Buyers are now offering the farâ€" mers from $1.75 to $3.00 per barrel for their orchards, according to the quality of the fruit. Barrels are sellâ€" ing at $1.65, and the cost of picking and packing a barrel of apples is estimated to be about $1.00. The price to the consumer, which includes not only the above items, but also the middleman‘s profit, will probably be from $5 upwardâ€"principally upward â€"doubtless. ‘ONTARIO APPLES FOR EUROPE The Niagara district will supply thé apples for Ontario this year, said a well known grower in speaking Oof that luscious and favorite Canadian fruit last week. The general crop throughout the province, according to reports from the Department of Agri culture, is in most sections much beâ€" low the average, so it will be good news to the housewives of this secâ€" tion that the yield here is better than it has been for many years. building up a at the present calves, a herd : pure breds.

In most instances the farmers are hindered by a lack of containers, ratherâ€" than a shortage of pickers. The unheard of price of $250 per thousand is being paid for baskets at the present time by farmers who were soâ€" unfortunate as to not have a supply or an early contract for their season‘s needs. dealers in thigs idstrict are anticipatâ€" ing a larger overseas trade than usâ€" ual this fall. Canadianâ€"grown apples are much sought for by the people in the British Isles, and every year thousands of barrels are shipped from the Dominion to supply that market. The Ontario apples, while of excellent quality, have in the past .been overâ€" shadowed by those®of the maritime provinces. Horticulturists and dealers declare that after the Britisher gets a few bites of the Ontarioâ€"grown proâ€" duct the Nova Scotian will have to look to his laurels if he intends to keep the first place in the apple exâ€" port trade. Apples will be ready for picking in the course of a couple of weeks, and will take all the pickers which can be mustered, as the grapeâ€"cutting will also be at its height about the same time. Jordan Station, Sept. 22.â€"The Jorâ€" dan Club held its thirteenth annual fruit shoot on the club grounds here toâ€"day, and as the shooting conditions were ideal some extellent ~scores were mia@de.

The display of fruit was grand, and consisted of the cream of the peach orchards of the Jordan and the Vineâ€" land district. Considerably over 200 baskets were distributed among the shooters, who went home with their automobiles filled to the tops. The race for high average was very keen with three shooters finishing with 97 out of 100, viz., T. Newlands, Galt; J. Dennis, Brantford; and G. Runchâ€" Clara Kimball Young, in "The! Road Through the ark," will be seen at Moore‘s Theatre on Saturday, Oct.! 2nd. This is, destined to go down in film history as one of the most sumpâ€" tuously and beautifully costumed plays ever produced. Lucile, Lady Duffâ€"Gordon, creator exquisite of women‘s fashions, has had a very active part to play in the filming of "The Road Through the Dark." Miss Young came to New York this summer, . and instead of resting up for the making of her coming production, as she had been ordered to, she was very active lookâ€" ing for new styles that she thought might be appropriate and becoming to her for the filming of "The Road Through the Dark". Daily she walkâ€" ed Fifth Avenue, thinking perhaps she might see something that would be particularly suited for her picture. All of Miss Young‘s gowns were Oorâ€" dered from Lady Duffâ€"Gordon. "The Road through the Dark" is a story of the early stages of the war. Europe and America form the background for the action of the story, and the characters are tinged with romance and high adventure. the picture has been scenarized by Kathryn Stuart, from the story by Maud Radford Warren. Edmund Mortimer directed the picture. .

Milk treated in this way has been kept for a year without turning sour.

A tablespoonful of â€" secraped horseradish put into a pan of milk will keep it sweet for longer than‘ might be expected, even in the hotâ€" test weather, always supposing that the pan is kept in a cool place. The milk intended for children should be absolutely free from any <of the preâ€" servatives commonly used for that purpose. The bttled milk may be found useful when mothâ€"rs are takâ€" inss their chilren a distance by rAhil. Ground cinnamon is disliked by ants. A little sprinlaled about occaâ€" sionally in rooms where they are found will help in keeping them away. 6. W. V. A. GORNEB PAID UP LIST Mackie, Smithville T.
