Western Canada shines at the Kansas City Soil Products Exposition with multiple awards in wheat oats barley flax and vegetable collections. Rosthern’s Siger Wheeler and Alberta’s HH B Sheeley and Nick Tallinger win top prizes. The note adds a controversial line about Bolshevik Russia and a closing remark urging citizens to buy bonds to seat Bertin.
