May Yolte once darling of royalty
has found It at Inst as the wife of a
workingman amid bumble surround-
ings herself a Janltress She has
found It In wprk In service and In
self-effacement
It Is as Mrs John Smuts that the
tempestuous theatrical star of yester-
day has added a bright chapter to the
life that led the American girl to an
English peerage at eighteen Into
troublesome days of escapade through
'heartbreaking years and decline of
fame Into marriage again and adven-
tures in far lands All In the restless
search for love
At the end of her kaleidoscopic ca
reer she Is now In Seattle knowing
poverty and the meaning of toll and
she says she’s found what she’s bunted
for a lifetime in the man who loves
her and is good to her
Twenty years ago May Yohe had
the theatrical world at her feet She
became Lady Francis Hope mistress
of the great blue Hope diamond Jewel
of 111 omen As such she was the pet-
ted favorite of aristocracy and of King
Edward VII "
Then she listened to the blandish-
ments of Capt Putnam Bradleo
Strong sou of the then mayor of New
York and seeking happiness uncon
ventlonally went away with him The
adventure brought only sorrow and
disappointment
Striving to regain her lost glory
she stood again before a London an
dlence In 1913 and London forgave
her and took her back Into its heart
with a roaring welcome as in the older
dnys of song and dance and youthful
allurements
Having accomplished that she be-
came the bride of Capt John Smuts
cousin of Gen Jan Smuts of Boer war
fame and himself an officer In that
war She quit the stage and accom-
panied him to South Africa to Singa-
pore to India China and Japan
Coming to America a year or so
ago la the hope that he would get a
commission In the British army Cap-
tain Smuts went to work In a Seattle
shipyard when his application was
turned down and ready funds were not
available
It was there he developed Influenza

the footllght world went to work as
Janltress to earn their dally bread As
worker and nurse she battled desper-
ately for his life — and won
’Won the greatest happiness I have
ever known” she said' “as well as tbs
life of my dear husband”
When Captain Smuts resumed work
In the shipyards after his illness he
“banished” May Yohe to keeping house
In their one-room apartment where
they are living today
Their financial straits were explained
by Mrs Smuts as due to red tape that
prevented access to estate moneys
and to the fact that Captain Smuts a
Judge and barrister In South Africa
knew po one In America
“When Ja'ck became 111 they asked
me Jokingly at the shipyards If 1
wanted a job I accepted It seriously
The only place open was for a Janl-

Special permission to accompany
the French armies Into Strassburg was
asked by Captain Danner grandson of
Baron Pron prefect of Strassburg dur-
ing the war of 1S70 At the time of
the old city’s bombardment the cathe-
dral belfry was struck and from the
debris the prefect secured a piece of
granite and instructed bis children
that whenever the day of liberation
came they should take the stone back
and present It to tbe authorities of
the town Carefully kept during the

How U-Boats Wore Trapped
One of the novel devices adopted by
the British for the co-ordination of the
efforts of trawlers and submarines has
Just been divulged A trawler would
drag a submarine by a cable and main-
tain communication with it by tele-
phone When the trawler sighted a
German U-boat the British submarine
would slip Its cable and attack the
German boat before the surprised Ger-
mans could submerge or prepare to
give fight

It Is hard to tell where this very
smart top coat for spring found Its
greatest inspiration for it might have
been In far Japan that It got Its
kimono sleeve or In England that it
found Its Raglan outlines or In the
war zone that it picked up a hint of
the military scape It Is a hand
some and practical affair that will de-
light the heart of the tourist and It
has achieved what Its designer start-
ed out to get — a fine style that we
will see aired In’ Easrer time prom-
enades and In all the paths to which
spring lures our feet
This coat is shorter than many of
the new models for spring It will
appeal to the traveler and to the mo-
torist and Is one to wear with sat-
isfaction on the street The sleeves
are finished off with effective cuffs
having large link buttons to distin-
guish them from others less smart and
original Two very practical slit pock-
ets and a high and cozy convertible
collar proclaim that comfort and serv-
ice as well as good style are a part
The two youthful and pretty dresses
pictured above could never be mis-
taken for anything other than they
are Everything about them spells
practical and tasteful style for the girl
In her teens and at the beginning of
those crowded and lively years — any-
where from twelve to sixteen years
As in nearly all the frocks for young
girls the skirts are plain and wide
enough to allow perfect freedom with-
out being bulky They are almost as
long as some of those worn by grown-
ups terminating In three-inch hems
about six Inches or a little more above
the ankles The dress at the left has
a slip-over middy In a good style for a
slender girl It has a shallow yoke
with round plain neck that extends
over the shoulders and top of the arm
This widens the figure The body of
the middy Is gathered Into this and
there are long plain sleeves with turn-
hack cuffs There are delightful and
practical patch pockets set on pven
with the bottom of the middy having
a urn-over band at the top finished
of the business of top coats Nothing
more effective than wool velours or
duvetyn has been produced for coats
It Is hard to' Imagine anything better
than these soft rlch-looklng fabrics
Another new arrival in wraps that
Is popular Is a cape set onto a short
waistcoat that buttons down the front
and gives 'It added warmth This is
amply wide and has a snug fitting
cape collar that hugs the neck and
falls to the shoulder There -are lit
tie slit diagonal pockets In the waist-
coat that will accommodate a hand-
kerchief and a little purse Another
smart aspirant for favor hangs like
a full cape at the back and front
with the sides cut away into flowing
sleeves But pieces set In at tbe
sides are extended into undersleeves
producing an unusual silhouette It
has also a high snug-fitting turnover
collar i '

front with a small black buckle
The model shown at the right was
designed for cotton cloth but would
make ahandBome suit ' In Jersey —
either wool or silk It is cut on the
lines of a middy but Is one of those
new designs that mahage to be like
two-in-one garments with Its overgar-
ment having revers at the front and
an opening which extends part way
down and fastens with large pearl
buttons The sleeves flare a little at
the wrists and the turned-back cuffs
like the revers are made of white per-
cale or other heavy white cotton
goods while the dress is In a color
Slides of the material on each of these
dresses support the narrow patent
leather belts fastened with buckles
that make so smart and practical a

LAUD OF VMTI
Western Canada Has Unbounded
Possibilities
Qlorleus Opportunities for the Stock
Raiser the Whsat Grower and the
Mixed Farmsr— Its Fields to
Feed the World
Before there were any cattle In
Alberta or it was known that It was
possible to feed them outside all tbe
year round the Indian hunters could
always find the buffalo during tbe
winter months pasturing In the foot-
hills In the summer the herds wnn
dered on the plulns and fed on the
prairie grasses The plains have since
become grain fields' but the foothill
district extending north from the In-
ternational boundary for a thousand
miles will always be a natural feeding
ground for live stock In the southern
part of Alberta the altitude Is greater
than in the more northerly districts
but while the herds in the south have
winder tracts of treeless pasturngo in
the north from Red Deer on into the
Peace river country there are more
trees a richer vegetation - and more
natural shelter
Those who have been advocating
stock raising and mixed farming for
the past few years point to the number
of hogs tnnrketed as an evidence of the
Increased production of the Western
Provinces They may also take credit
for the Increase In cattle and sheep
which Is very great but perhaps not
so marked as what has been accom-
plished In hog raising For the first
six months alone last year about half
a -mlllfon hogs were shipped from
Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta
A very conservative estimate value Of
these animals to tbe farmer would be
12500 a head
The Canadian West Is fast forging to
the front of the wheat-producing coun-
tries of the world and "No 1 hard’
Is without doubt the best wheat In the
market today When It Is considered
that the three hundred and forty-three
million four hundred and seventy-three
thousand bushel crop of 1915 was from
only eleven million acres of her hun-
dreds of millions of acres it gives an
Idea of what her future wUl be
It la felt however that on account
of tbe great money there will tin
doubtedly be lu growing wheat during
the next few years there Is a possibil-
ity that farmers may be tempted to
drop the growing of coarser grains
which might result in less stock being
raised Every effort Is being made by
the Agricultural Departments of the
various Provinces to Impress on the
farmers that forage crops and coarse
feed In abundance mean production of
flesh and milk and that in the long
run the great future of the Western
Provinces lies In mixed farming which
will found her prosperity on a more
enduring basis
Mixed farming has always been the
rale In the Eastern Provinces where the
formation of tbe land invites variety
of crop but It has not been as common
In the Western Provinces though the
practice has 'grown tn recent years
Hitherto the man mining wheat from
the rich soil has purchased most of his
household footf and necessities' his
energies being devoted to getting every
possible bushel of grain out of every
foot of his land and he has paid prices
fbr his supplies that have made a big
dent tn his profits It has now dawned
on him that he cap - raise vegetables
and poultry and supply his own table
that with very little effort he can raise
a lot of garden produce and in a very
simple manner solve his own problem
of the cost of living Further that
there Is an Increasing market for do-
mestic necessities such as poultry
eggs butter milk and cheese which
command very high prices and that
there are other roads to prosperity
besides that through the wheat field
In 1916 Canada Imported 7989269
pounds of butter most of It from as
far away as New Zealand and for the
first time In 60 years failed to ship
butter to England a condition due to
the 1 home consumption which is esti-
mated to be increasing at the rate of
1 3000000 worth a year being great-
ly In excess of the increased supply
This condition has brought about a
change in fanning methods that Is far-
reaching and will result in greatly in-
creased production all round of the
necessities demanded by the home
market :
Natural Resource
One of the most Important consider-
ations to the former Is fuel In north-
ern Manitoba Saskatchewan and Al-
berta where portions of the country
are well wooded the settler has little
difficulty tn getting nil the wood he
requires and thousands of men find
employment In the winter cutting
wood which rf s shipped all over the
prairie portions of the provinces
There Is an abundance of - coal
throughout the country It Is estimat-
ed that the coal deposits In Alberta
cover over 81000 square miles and
represent an available tonnage of over
tea hundred thousand million tons
while those In Saskatchewan cover an
area of 13000 miles containing over
09000000 tons In Manitoba the coal
reserve Is not as large but even there
160000000 tons Is considered a conser-
vative estimate At the present time
these deposits are only worked to a
small extent but there Is no doubt that
they will be a great feature In upbuild-
ing the country and will exercise a
powerful Influence on Its commerce
It Is a common thing In the coal dis-
tricts for farmers to get their coni
supply off their own farm Near Ed-
monton for example the farmers not
only supply themselves but they car
ry coal to tbe city market and find It
a considerable source of revenue In
the winter time The EdmOnton coal
fields tinder and around the city have
an estimated content of sixty thousand
million tons Farmers sell the coal
at 84 a ton for domestic use
The pioneer of Western Canadn
knew little of the enjoyments of life
compared with the farmer In that
country today The continual exten-
sion of railway lines affords facilities
undreamed of a few years ago dosing
up the gaps of communication creat-
ing Immense business for the East In
the West and the West In the East
and drawing tho farmer all the time
nearer to the zones of commerce in
creating wider markets the railways
are doing more than any other agency
can do for Western Canada and the
country aa a whole The products of
the farms which are now readily mar-
keted and the vast train of employ-
ment that follows the enlargement of
the farming Industry Is creating new
agricultural centers and causing towns
and cities of importance to grow all
along Its lines
An admirable system of agricultur-
al Instruction has been developed
through the efforts of the Dominion
government and the various provin-
cial Departments of Agriculture This
forms part of the educational system
of Western Canada and is doing much
for all branches' of agriculture Ex-
perimental - farms have been estal-
llshed at various points In the prov-
luces which have doite wonders In de-
veloping improve methods of farm-
ing The result has been a grpat awaken
Ing to tbe necessity of better methods
of tillage scientific stock' raising and '
dairying Farmers are beginning to
realize that to get what they are en-
titled to out of the land they must
adopt scientific methods and as a re-
sult careful seed selection proper ro-
tation and summer fallow Is the order
of the day Under the favorable con-
ditions generally anticipated prospects
point to an all round Increase In pro-
duction that will leave a great deal
of money In the hands of the western
farmer this year and prosperity for
Western Canada as a whole It will be
year? before Europe will make up ar-
rears In agricultural production
caused by the enforced Idleness and
wholesale destruction and Western
Canada will play a big part In filling
the void
The result of the continued shortage
In cattle the future price of beef and
the solution of the perplexing problem
of feeding the world are vital ques-
tions uppermost In the minds of many
thinking people today
There Is no doubt that the wide
acres of Western Canada can and will
be made to play an Important part In
bringing about a proper balance In
supply and demand In the northern
parts of Manitoba and Saskatchewan
and In Alberta are many thousands
of acres of the richest pasture In the '
world well watered and treated by the
sunniest of -climates These rolling
hills for tbe greater part are still un-
peopled and untrodden by the hoofs
of domestic animals
One of the causes assigned for the
decline In stock-raising Is the reduc-
tion In the areas available for grazing
on account of so many big ranches be-
ing converted into farms Experi-
ments conducted at Vermilion Al-
berta would rather go to show that
the old grazing grounds were too large
and that the feeding is really better
when the animal Is 'confined to a com-
paratively limited area providing the
pasturage Is of the right kind and
there Is plenty of water — Advertise-
