In that period, with the products of his Manitoba farm, he has carried off no less than three thousand prizes, Including the world‘s championship for wheat at the Peoria International Fair in 1917 and the sweepstake for the best individual farmer‘s exhibit as well as the sweepstake for wheat in the dryâ€"{arming section at the World‘s Soil Products exhibition in Kansas in 1918. His Canadian successes constiâ€" tute an aggregate which gives him lni average over his farming years of one hundred prizes per year. I Such a man is Samuel Larcombe, of Birtle, Manitoba, who expresses pride in the realization of the signal part he has played in making the possibilâ€" ities of Western Canada known to the world. In a period when the profession of farming is more or less stagnant, when the tendency in so many counâ€" tries is from the rural districts to the cities and industrial centres, and the oftâ€"made complaint is that the ardors and deprivations of an agricultural life are not commensurate with its compensations, it is consoling to read the history of a satisfied farmer of thirty years‘ standing, one of the conâ€" timent‘s premier agriculturisis, celeâ€" brating his seventieth birthday in the tranquil satisfaction of the honors which have come to him in his chosen profession. _ tories sell through a common coâ€" operative agency or selling house in England? Do any Danish factories maintain wholesale or retail stores? Ans â€"â€"There are eighteen coâ€"cperâ€" ative factories which ship to the Danâ€" ish Bacon Ageney. The Danish Bacon Agency is principally owned by the eighteen factories which consign their bacon and through this Danish Bacon Agency do a wholesale trade. There is no factory connected with retail busine<s. w signment or contract, and to what extent do the Danish factories deal through agents in the manner that Canadian packers do?

He came to Winnipeg in 1889 and proceeded to Birtle, where even then existed a thriving colony of old country farmers.

At a time when everyore was enâ€" grossed in wheat he concentrated not so much upon grains as on vegetables.

There is no standard cure or trim for , Danish bacon. The L. U. R. brand represents a freedom from tuberâ€" culosis; that is all that the Governâ€" ment of Denmark is interested in. If any factory sends out bacon not proâ€" perly trimmed, which a good many of them do, the fact is brought home to | them in the price. The Danes have no ; representative in England to see about any Government regulations being carâ€" ried out, because there are none. If the bacon accumulates, shipments from Denmark are stopped by the factories themselves, there is no Govâ€" ernment intervention at all; they just stop shipping, as you would stop if{ your goods were accumulating here, and then the bacon accumulates in Denmark instead of lying about here. Packers cannot stop killing in Den-, mark any more than you can do in Canada. It is simply a question of l where the bacon accumulates.

Ans.â€"There is no "bacon" inspecâ€" tion in Denmark or in England by the Danish Government. There is the veterinary inspection, the same as you have in Canada. Hogs that are entireâ€" ly free from tuberculosis are branded with the L. U.
