Wheat Fully As Far Advanced As Last Year. Winnipeg, June 15.~The statement {made by the Canadian Northern ran- (way agent at Aberdeen, Sask., in the {company's crop report, is most sig- nificant in showing the phenomenal |orowth made by wheat since seeding. |The crop is two weeks ahead of last | year at this time," he wires. When it remembered that seeding was con- | siderably later than last year, and | that in 1908 the crop 'made fair pro- | gress at the beginning, the significance of this assertion can be appreciated. {and Aberdeen is not a solitary in- | stance; for from such widely separated | points as Mundare and Carberry re i ports come "that . the erop looks as any previous year at this i | i | | i I'well as _ in time. The Canadian Northern railway | crop report the whole west | pretty thoroughly, and there is not a | complaint from a long list of sta | tions. The general report is that the | weather has been most propitious, and | that all the grain is coming on at a { remarkable rate. covers The height of wheat at a large num- ber of points is said to average from leight to twelve inches. Some places | report an average height of from four {to six inches. Everywhere, it is said, {the farmers are confidently looking for ward to' an abundant cgop. | The feature of the report the {statement from Saskatoon, to thie ef- fect that the prairie land is in splen- did condition for breaking, and that | | | | is turned over this season.

Dr. Bayne have been told at the Presby- terian general assémbly. Hon. James Young recalls him as a little boy. then in adult life when on week days he kept nineteen clay pipes alternate ly in commission, so that to enter his study was 'to imagine that a con flagration was in progress, with cone siderable damage from smoke. Never theless, he was one of the earliest clorgymen to take a stand against the liquor traffic. It must be remembered that the total abstinence movement is a purely modern one, borrowed less than an hundred years ago by Chris tians from the teachings of Mahomet. dt is said that temperance was sorely needed among the settlers whom Dr. Bayne came to comfort because whis- key was then only twenty cents a gal lon, and before the days of agricultur- al machinery was a part of the hired man's perquisitc on the harvest field. Dr. Bayne was commissioned by the synod of Upper Canada in 1842, to visit Scotland and obtain ministers for the growing. Presbyterian faith in this country. He arrived there to find Mri cand Mes 0.
