He again demonstrates his mastery with the finishing sequence In “The Kid Brother,” his newest contribution to the realm of mirth, which becomes the logical successor to ‘‘For Hea- ven’s Sake,” ; .

“The Kid Brorther’ will be shown in the Gem theatre Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week, June 13, 14, and 15.

“The Kid Brother” is far from being a thrill comedy. It’s a mix- ture of comedy, pathos, and romance and relates one of the most entertain- ing stories Lloyd has ever given the screen, aid in a small mountain town it gives an entirély new twist to this type of production and pre- sents the comedian in a characteri- zation as lovable and sympathetic as “Grandma's Boy,” :

The story tells the tale of the youngest son of a family of strong men who control a tiny mountain town. A medicine show arrives, and Harold, wearing the sheriff's badge, gives them a license. Father hears of this, and there’s—well, Harold has a terrible time righting things when the show's tent catches fire and a large sum of money is stolen, But it all turns out for the ‘best as, in a thrilling fight aboard an aban- per ship, Harold proves homselt

PROSPEROTS ARE ROSY

1927 bears the earmarks of a ban- ner year for agriculture in Alberta.

From all sections of the province come reports that crops are jooking good, plenty of moisture in the ground; crop indications never looked better; wheat making wonder- ful growth; and other similar ports. ;

This news is cheering. It is the best news in the world for the people of Alberta.

Agriculture is the basic industry of Alberta. When the farmer pros- pers, everybody prospers. A big harvest means more money in circu- | lation, more business for the busi- ness man, and steadier employment and better wages for the working man.

It’s a long way from

re-

now until

harvest, and Many things may happen between now and threshing time. But at any rate,

the crop is away to a good start, and everybody ought to be cheerful.

GOOD PROGRESS IN OIL DEVELOPMENT

Alberta’s oil industry is looking up. And at the same time the drills are going down. An oil well has been brought in at Skiff, and more production obtainead-at Turner. Val- ley. The next field to attract at- tention will ‘be Steveville..

The only thing that is keeping the Steveville oil field out of the lime- light is because it is somewhat ob- scurely located. Away back in the bad lands along the banks of the Red Deer river, scores of miles from a main highway, and in a_ district where settlers are few and far be- tween, the Steveville oil structure has been overlooked ‘by many petro- leum engineers whose attentions have been centered on the spectacu- lar performance of wells in the Turner Valley.

‘But far sighted directors of com- panies with holdings in’ various parts of Alberta have not overlooked the Steveville field, and got in early on the filing of leases.

At Steveville there is a perfect,oil structure. Geologists have sur- veyed the field, and their findings are sufficient to cause more than a warm enthusiasm In the heart of the true ofl man.

According to reports drilling ac-

the work will be watched with keen interest,

NO ONE IN CANADA NEED DRINK IMMATURE- WHISKY. THE AGE OF

Over a period of nine years various pastures for pigs have been tried out at the Dominion Experimental Sta- tion at Rosthern, Sask., both in com-. parison with One another and with no pasture. In dry years, such as 1924, there was so little growth that no effects could be seen from the use of pastures, but in seasons where there is a fair growth there were both greater gains and more economi- cal gains when pigs were on pasture with meal than when on meal alone. Corn pasture is less valuable than oats or barley, and rape gives best results in amount of gains and ec- onomy of gains, Rape has another advantage. Pigs fed in dry, lof or on grain pasture or corn pasture showed greater gains when fed a supplementary mineral mixture but there was little difference between those fed mineral an dthose without mineral on rape pasture.

in the spring give. a profusion of bloom, followed later in the season by fruits, which are at once orna- mental and which may be used when ripe to replenish the larder with jam and jellies, There are. also the hawthorn and the mannyberry, which have characteristic bloom, the fruit of which is inedible, but decorative.

The ‘shrubs afford much pleasure and joy to the eye. Pembina often given the unfortunate namie of high bush cranberry, blooms very freely and the scarlet berries are decora- tive and useful for pies, preserves, and jellies. Sand cherries bloom profusely, while the fruit varies in quality, but makes good vinegar. Cinquefoil and roses are very orna- mental and bloom abundantly. Silver berry and sumach are more appre- elated for their foliage. Silver ber- ry makes a striking appearance on the lawn with its shiny, silvery leaves, and fills the air with fra- grance when in bloom. The foliage of sumach assumes brilliant shades of red and scarlet, which make it very attractive. Red osier dogwood ig very ornamental, since it has clusters of white bloom, followed by white berries, but makes its most pleasing effect in winter when its bright red branches contrast with the white snow.

The climbers vary the effect and may be used to cover the arbor or back porch. The honeysuckle is

‘I the only one to produce showy flow-

ers. The broad flat leaves of na- tive grape and the clusters of fruit make the grape desirable as a climb- er. Climbing bittersweet is seen to advantage in the fall when its orange ‘colored berries are the more visible after the deaves have dropped Hops are useful for climbing over the trellis or walls. ;

The above list outlines a few of the native ornamentals which thrive at the Morden Experimental Sta- tion under cultivation. They can easily be propagated from seed, suckers, or cuttings, which makes it possible for anyone to become a suc- cessful and interested horticulturist.

CANADA IS GREATEST WHEAT EXPORTER

Montreal—According to figures of the dominion government, Canada led all countries of the world by a wide margin as an exporter of wheat from August 1 to December 31, 1926. In that period Canada shipped 167,795,000 bushels, her closest rival being the United States with 94,191,- 000 bushels shipped. The situation of the previous year with regard to flour was, however, reversed, and Canada took second place to the United States, the Dominion export- ing 4,181,000 ‘barrels, as against the republic's 6,940,000 barrels,

F ortnightly Crop Report

bond Wi, Pierson ad Agrlentiare Edmonton, June 2

In spite of rains in some sections of the province: a the past two weeks, which hive de Ayed work on the land for several days, rapid —pro- gress getierally lias been made with seeding. _ Wheat. seeding in practi- cally all districts has been completed and early sown grain in many fields is covering the ground, Drills are still busy with oats and barley. Tak- ing the province as a whole it is es- timated that fully 75 per cent of these grains have been sown, and the remainder will be completed within the next ten days.

The wheat acreage seeded in the south part of the province ig esti- mated to be about on a par with that of 1926, while throughout the central and northern sections reports indi- cate that this acreage will show quite an increase owing to the con- siderable area of new land cleared and broken last season in prepara- tion for the 1927 crop. This factor, it ig expected, will fully compensate for the areag in some low lying flelds where the presence of water made seeding imposstple. The acreage which: will be seeded to the coarse grains in most districts is reported |} to be about equal to that in 1926.

In the southern part of the pro- vince early sown wheat is from four to six inches high, of-good healthy color, and making rapid , growth. Heavy rains during the past week in some sections of the south - have delayed completion of coarse grain seeding some extent, Winter wheat and winter rye generally, have have come through in good condition and are growing rapidly.

Reports trom districts in the Peace River area indicate that the wheat acreage seeded this year is fully equal to that ot, 1926, and that the coarse grain acreage will show a marked increase. Coarse grain seeding will be completed within a few days in this section of tpe pro- vince.

More interest is being sliown this year throughout the province in the growing of alfalfa, sweet clover, and other fodder crops. Pastures are reported to be in’ better than average condition, and livestock generally is doing welk Japrough some losses have oceurred in the lamb crop as a result of the wet weather over much of the sheep range area in the south, y Reports reaching the department from the ranching area in the south rn section of the province indi- cate that losses of poth cattle
