That Canada was able to make such heavy exportations' was due to the fact that she is 'exceeded in oat production only by Russia, Germany and the United States itself, having a erop clast year of 404,500,000 busliels, which was in excess of the Dowminion's requirements. Oats are proditiced almost exclus- ively in the nortliérn and central countries of Europe, in Canada, and the northern sections of the United States. A recent bulletin from the depart- ment of agriculture of the latter coyntry says that oats have retained their traditional rank as a stock food, and that the tendency in many countries has béen toward expansion rather than the curtailment of cul- ture, in spite of the introduction of other feeds. It is from this repart that the information was gleaned for this article. , The following table shows the yield in bushels of gats for the prin- cipal countriés which go to produce the total world's crop of 4,700,000, 000 bushels: " Russia United States Germany Canada France Austria Hungary Great Britain . 181,126,000 In Canada the increase in oat growing has been general through- out the Dominion, though New Brunswick and Manitoba show a slight falling off in the last three years. It bulk of the Canadian crop-is produc- ed. in sections of the Dominion ac- cessible by boat or rail to the leadg ing grain market "of the United States. 2 Canada has, for a number of years at least, raised more oats than the local demand called for, and, in spite of the heavy duties, has sent large quantities to the United States mar- kets. In fact, official figures from that country show that Canada has furnished the larger portion of the outs imported by that country each year since 1906. Last year the oatferop in the Unit- ed States was-alinost 300,000,000 be- low' the previous year, which was, 1,168,490,000 1,121,786,000 669,231,000 404,669,000 $82,131,000 268,869,000 however, an exceptionally good year. !

"Now that the free wheat question is settled," declared the colonel, "the Lake of the Woeds Milling company is preparing to invest large sums of money in furthering the plans in Western Canada, to buy more wheat from the western farmers, and to grind it into flour on Canadian soil. This company has always believed in the Canadian West, as is shown by the fact that it is the only large flour company that has all its mills west of the Great Lakes, but, I say emphatically, that thought that free wheat was to be the policy of the government, we would not invest another dollar west of Fort William."

He seldom speaks, and always his face seems the same--expressionless, lips tightly compressed, eyes cold and black and penetrating, looking straight ahead. When he speaks it is slowly, and at times his voice is so low that his words are scarcely aud-- ible. And then he will clench his hands and strike the nearest object a resounding blow, as if to accentu- ate his power to command obedience. Here is a picture of the dictator at home. Deep down in a,comfort- able chair reposes General Huerta. At his side is a fable littered with papers. Within reach of his right hand is a bottle of cognac and a glass. As the night wears on the contents of the bottle diminish and, finally, the glass is no longer used. Huerta drinks from the bottle. Hours roll by, but deep in his easy chair General Huerta takes no eare of the fleeting hours. 'His waistcoat is unbuttoned and his old brown suit, showing the wear of months, is stained here and there. His eyelids become heavy, and his head nods from side to side, and not infrequent- ly he falls asleep in 'his chair by the empty cognac bottle. But there is another side to man. No one doubts Huerta's bravery. He does not know fear. Into the muzzle of a gun he will look with the very same indifference with which he regards a plea for mercy. He is nothing more than a rough soldier, but down in his heart he has admira- tion and great respect for a brave man. On the man who would run away Huerta wastes no sympathy. Huerta is a fighter of the old Por- firio Diaz school--the kind who takes few prisoners, He believes that the best place for a disturber of the peace is the grave, and it makes little differenice to hinf- if the grave be shallow. He lets nothing stand in his way or hold him from his am- bitions. Huerta was once almost blind from a cataract on one of his eyes: Dr. Aureliano Urrutia, a noted Mexi- can surgeon, was interested in the case and consented to uperate to re- move the cataract. Huerta entered Dr. Urrutia's sanitatium at Tlalpam, a suburb of Mexico City, and/ the operation was performed without the use of an anaesthetic, it is said. "Cut it off," Huerta fold the sur geon, and Dr. Urrutia, as cold-blood- ed as Huerta, proceeded to do it. Huerta is a man to play a big game. Conscience he has none, or his waking moments would be a wild delirium of remorse, and his nights a mad fantasy, in which the spirits of thousands of slain would hover over his couch and in fearful accusation shake at him their skeleton fingers. Strength, indomitable will, fixity of resolve, absolute ignorance of fear, cruelty, mercilessness--those are the elements the fates gathered together and poured intd the crue- ible where was moulded Victoriano Huerta. | On the firing line, wherd death- dealing rapid fire guns and Maus- ers are pouring volleys into a sway- Ing mass of troops, and shrieking shells are bursting overhead; in the ig Se Tal CT onal; f=) game 1 g icky » drinking cognac from a tedcup in the EI Globo fea rooms, al- : there is that same look on face, It never changes.
