A writer in the Winnipeg Free Press points out that the returns of the harvest in Great Britain show wheat yields of 33.97 bushels an acre, the average for ten years being 31.15 bushels an acre. In the Can- adian West, with new soil the av- erage is under 20 bushels, and in some important gram growing dis- tricts on this continent it falls to 12 bushels an acre. The Writer thinks that it might be well to im- port some of the British farmers who malle such records to show how the work is accomplished, The point is well enoush taken: The Englishman is counted green and slow thiefly by people who do not know much Son him, or about any other people.
