The Reason Why We are Following Oot This Plan DROMORE OR&CO. Dromore * Highest Prices Paid WE always have and always will appreciate a good Credit Customer === BUT WHY NOT SAVE MONEY AND PAY CASH P===== farm is owned by an Englishman reâ€" siding in the old land named Strauss and managed from a Winnipeg office. This year he had in crop 3850 acres or more than 6 sq. miles of flax, 125 acres wheat and 25 in oats, 4000 in , all. _ The remaining 6000 acres wusi all bioken this summer and next| year will be entirely in wheat while} the 4000 is to be summer fallowed.E The succeeding year the entire 10, 000 is to be in wheat. It was a beautiful' and impressive sight to behold wavâ€" ing flax as far as the eye‘s range of vision in one direction and to see two of the engines, one pulling 6 binders and the other 4, cutting the flax a section or square inile at a time, The six binders, all connected, each eight ] feet to the left of the one preceding, . cut a 48 ft wide swath in one round, lbut in the arile square field there was ‘apparently little diminution of the uncut area. â€" The entire flax crop has yar on Pre THEF THE J. D. ABRAHAM COMPANY D N been sold for $1. 33 per bus. ard a sq. mile it was estimated would bring ‘,$|7ono. Threshing the flax was in |\ progress simultaneously with the cutting, andthree of the engines and |separators were kept hummiug while |\ dozeas of teams drew the sheaves to |\ the machines. _ Forty large galvanâ€" lized iron tanks are dotted over the \tarm and in these the threshed flax | is emptied. _ From these a gasoline engine supplies power for conveying |tbe contents to waggons, which are | bauled into Flaxcombe by horses and |\engines and the flax here loaded on |\cars for shipment. _ The farm is not | yet paying ruuning expenses but it | is expected will produce dividends in |a year or two. _ The day was an eyeâ€" opener and broadened our ideas and ] vision as to what can be accomplishâ€" |ed in farming. Among our outings was also a 24 mile drive to Kindersley and return in company with Mr McC. _ It is a lively little town of 1250, only five years old and the centre of a good grain growing community, _ During our few days here we drove in all over tro miles, so we were actually , *going some." On different occasions in this 10-} cality our mind was reminiscent and full of visions of the past : when the vast plains, rolling hillsides and valleys were not peopled by the white man ; when it was one vast prairie habited only by the red man and the! buffalo roamed at will in thousands: over its length and breadth ; when | no cultivation of theland was dreamt of and hunting and trapping werel the principal ineans of livelihood. Now we have only ground marks and‘ relics to recall vivedly to our minds these scenes of 50 to 100 years ago and more as they must nave been. Here and there in any direction over the prairie are the straight hollowed out buffalo trails, where thousands of these former monarchs of the prairie in byâ€"gone years, in single file wore paths ; hero we come across a buflalo head or bones ; over there is a buffalo wallow where a deep circular path is worn around a large stone, against which they were wont to rub ; now we come upon the remains of an Indian tepee, â€"in a circular array of stones, in the centre of which enâ€" closure remain a few more stones and a hollowed fireplace. _ The howling of the coyotes is now the only living prairie recognition here of its former wild animal life. _ This is the day of the white man and the former home of the Indian and buffalo is now desâ€" tined to be the granary of the world. Our six days in this locality were ones ot enjoymeut, enlightenment and education and we would they could have been longer. A 110 mile jJourney brings us some 75 miles as the crow flies fnrther northwest and here, under Albertan skies, we take leave of our readers.
