If you know what magnificent cows you've got, just go to Bill and kick about your roads, and if you'd like to know about ithe marvellous roads you're bles- sed with, just go to the same party and beef about your cows.

Don't worry if you're getting nothing a pound for your butter-fat, talk to Bill about it, and come away satisfied with the idea that the view of Mt, Baker from your farm, the lovely green of your pas- tures (together with the emerald sheen in your eye), not to mention the healthy open air life, makes farming one of those recreations you should pursue as an amateur, and not demand money from, like a mercenary professional.

Of course, Bill's got his enemies; some Say he has’nt got a leg to stand on, but that’s all wrong.

AT THE VICTORY THEATRE

Pictures such as “The Covered Wagon will never die but they have been sur- passed in realism by the story brought to the screen in “Fighting Caravans.”

Here the actual thrills, the adventure the romance of the heart-stirring per- fod when the West was still an untrack- ed wilderness, actually lives again on the screen. On Tuesday.and Wednesday next, the stage of the Victory Theatre where the “Fighting Caravans” is to be shown, has become the historic ground on which one of the greatest and most vital dramas of all time takes place.

Into the spectacular drama is woven with all Zane Grey's talent, a beautiful loye story, of a man and a girl who meet as the trek begins, carry their love through a series of adventures and reach the promised land together

THE MAN WHO IS DOING HIS BEST

No matter how humble his job is, if he's striving to reach the crest, The world has a prize for the fellow who tries—

The man who is doing his best.

The fellow who never surrenders And is taking things as they come; Who never Says quit, and exhibits his grit,

When the whole world’s looking glum; Tne fellow who stays to the finish, That nothing can hinder or stop, And who works like sin, is the chap who'll win—

And some day he'll land on top.

It’s NO TASK NOWADAYS!

Cuvrnine butter was a laborious = task that took a great deal of the house- wife's time on the farm.

Thanks to the introduction of electric power, churning instead of being a household duty looked upon with dis- like has become a minor detail in the home schedule.

Sufficient butter for farm use, plenty for sale and all done by pressing aa electric button and letting power do the work!

Our nearest agent will tell you how to get electric power on the farm.
