From the West Writing from \\‘askarla. a little town 120 miles Solllll west of Win- nipeg and close to the United States boundary, a corresmmdent says: "Wheat in Manitoba was generally a. failure but around here it was very good. As many as 32 carloads have been shipped out of here in a week. I must say oats are a. scarce article this year. You will have to pay 50¢. per bushel for them and likely $1.00 before seeding is over. Some of the farmers are busy hauling wood from. Turtle Mountain which is about. 20 miles from here. We can get so“ coal for $3.60 per ton. That is cheaper than wood hauled so far. Of course we like wOod for summer use. The weather so tar has not. been. extremely cold. though we have. had some very stormy weather a few blizzards. or at least what I would call blizzards, but the settlers call them "quite a. blow." Yesterday morning it was fine and I hitched up and drove to town. I had three miles to go. Before I got. there the wind rose a little I did some shopping and by the. time I was through I could hardly see across the street. It. got. worse all the time and to look out on the prairie noth- ing could be seen but sheets of flying snow. I started out though and afâ€" ter a. hard journey got home." B.B.B. Makes Blood Pure.
