Your WILL or the Courts Do you know that when a person dies without leaving a Will and naming an executor, that the court appoints some one as administrator of the estate? Do you feel that an administrator whom the court wculc point would be one whom you would have selected yourself had you made a Will during your lifetime? This company has during its nineteen years of experience gained a reputation for itself throughout the Territory for its competent and economical manner of handling estates. Correspondence invited.

GALT, Treasurer THE WORLDS E The high prices of flour and oth-jr cereals is the result of se rious shortage in crops, tiot only in America but the world over The great wheat growing slates of t;ie mainland aggregated otllv about a two thirds crop last fall, and give promise of even greater shortage this coming season, be cause of severe weather conditions, which have destroyed the winter wheat, and the shortage of seed tor thtSpring planting. Argentina has forbidden the ex portation of wheat because of crop failure, and consequent shortage which is already causing much suffering. A great deal of Rus sia's surplus has rotted on the ground, and there is no outlet for any part of it that could be spared. it Is estimated that the Europ ean yield this coming year will be only 75'' of the normal quantity. The Entente Allies will need 560 million bushels, while only some 360 million wfll be available.
