make this statement from the stand

know what the future has in store for
this country. Now that it Is being
rendered accessible to the markets of
the world through the construction of
the two new transcontinental rall

extension of the. Canadian Pacific,
this country will be developed beyond

vading army of Australian sheep
growers. F. W. Falrbain, an Australi
an wool king with headquarters in
London, recently purchased 4,000
acres in Alberta for sheep raising pur
poses. Mr. Falrbain la the largzst
grower of wool in the world and his
determination to have his son en
gage in the sheep industry in western
Canada is taken as an Indication umi
his future operation on a large scale
will be on this continent. '
A study of the" business at the Chi
cago stockyards and' at the other
packing centers of the country and the
reports of the. federal government In
dicates that unless the livestock of
this country Is largely increased, or
there is some relief from our neigh
bors, the prices of meats will contin
ue to remain high and may go higher.
. There are four million fewer cattle
in the United States than there, were
four years ago, while there are ap.
proximately seven millions more peo
ple to feed. The cattle number 47,270.
000 according to the government fig
ures. In 1907 the number was 511,665
000. The number of cattle decreased
in the United States. In the last year
by 4.4 per cent. Thrsre was a slight In
crease in ' the number of eheep, al
though there are 6,750,000 fewer than
there were in 1903. The following
table of percentage increase in the
last year in the United States and the
provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta show how western Can
ada is rapidly preparing to meet the
meat deficit in the United States.

Thus our northern neighbors are
increasing their supply of sheep more
than twice as rapidly as we are, and
they are maintaining a substantial in
crease in the cattle supply while we
are unable, to malfe a gain. l -
' Alfalfa that has been acclimatized.
and that has been found by experi
ments to be as good as any fattening
food for cattle, sheep or hogs, is res
ponsible for most of the rapid growth.
The alfalfa that has been found to
be the best producer for thig part of
the country was Imported from Ger
many by a settler In Northern Minne
sota nearly eltxy yearri ago. His
name was Wendelln Grimm, and the
alfalfa has been given his name. The
plant has become thoroughly Ameri
canized and a series of exhaustive
tests both in Canada and the United
States have proven it able to take case
of itself and furnish bumper crops un
der even adverse circumstances. Ex
periments conducted between 1904
and 1909 at the Indian Head experi
ment station in Saskatchewan proved
Grimm capable of averaging three
and a half tons to the acre, withstand
ing a temperature of more than forty
degrees below zero, and with only
nineteen Inches of rainfall during the
growing season. ..,
Mr. Angus Mackay, superintendent
In charge of the experiments reported
"From the first the Grimm alfalfa
has never been winter or spring killed
In the least and on this account I
consider it the most valuable strain
for this country." -
There are millions of acres In Man
itoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta
which can be converted Into alfalfa
fattening fields for cattle, sheep and
hogs. Mi. Falrbain saw the possibll
Itles In these acres and instead of
buying a small cattle ranch a8 he or
iginally intended before' arriving In
Calgary, he decided to purchase the
4.000 acres for cheep. -"The
