After scratching It to relieve the Itching it would burn so dreadfully that I thought I could not stand It For near ly a year I tried all kinds of salves and ointment, but found no relief. Some salves seemed to make it worse until there were ugly sores, which would break open and run. "One day I saw an advertisement of Cutlcura Remedies. I got a sample of the Cutlcura Soap and Cutlcura Oint ment and began by washing the sores with the Cutlcura Soap, then applying the Cutlcura Ointment twice a day.

CANADA WINS AGAIN THE COLORADO 8ILVER TROPHY FOR OAT8 WON A 8EC0ND TIME BY CANADA. The most recent achievement of Canada's West is winning for the sec ond time the magnificent $1,500 silver trophy awarded by the State of Colo rado for the best peck of oats. At Columbus, Ohio, In 1911, J. C. Hill & Sons of Lloydmlnster, Saskatchewan, placed a peck of oats grown on their farm In competition, with oats from every part of the world. The judges had no difficulty In deciding, and the award was given to the Saskatchewan grown oats. In 1912, the Corn Expo sition bad no exhibition, and our Ca nadian friends, although ready for a second contest had no opportunity. In 1913, the- exhibition of the Society was held at Columbus, S. C, and It Is said of It that it was one of the best yet held. At this exhibition, which comprised corn and all the smaller grains, Hill & Sons of Lloydmlnster had on exhibition for the contest an other peck of oats grown on their Saskatchewan farm, in 1912. There was no trouble for the judges, no time necessarily lost In reaching a decision. Hill & Sons won, and for the second time their name will appear on the crest of the cup. The third space will doubtless be occupied by their name, and then this splendid trophy will be theirs. During the past few years Western Canada grains wheat, oats, barley and flax have been In competition with grains from all other countries, and In every case their superiority has been shown. ' It Is not only In oats, but It Is In wheat In barley and In flax, that Canada more than holds Its own, when placed side by side with grains fron other parts. Mixed farming is taking a strong hold not only in those parts of Mani toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, which up to the present have been de voted solely to grain growing, but also in the districts contiguous, where the conditions of climate, shelter, watar, grass and hay make farming of this kind, easy to prosecute and large in profits. It was in the Province of Manitoba that tbe steer was raised that carried off the Championship of the steer class, at Chicago last De cember. This beast had been fattened on the grass and hay of the Province and the only finishing grain it had was barley; not an ounce of corn. Western Canada presents Innumer able opportunities for the big farmer who wants to cultivate his thousands of acres, the medium man satisfied with a few hundred acres, the man who Is content to farm his free home stead of one hundred and sixty acres; It has opportunities for the Investor, the capitalist the business man, the manufacturer and the laborer. Agents of the Canadian Government located at different points in the Unit ed States will be pleased on applica tion, to give any desired Information, free of cost. Advertisement His Sarcastic Fling.
