is no doubt many at the east who are
wishing to better themselves by chang

money market begins to assume lively
aspect at the east, and they will be able
to dispose of their property and make
their means available, if DESTROYS of
moving westward.

not satisfied with their present situation.
and yet are 10th to leave their eastern
home fearful of not lettering their con
dition by removal. They are now
making "a bare subsistence by their labor,
and cannot look forward 10 a future
which will bring to them either more Of
comfort or ease in life. There are 9TH

valleys flow clear, sparkling streams,
Astounding in water falls,-beautiful,

amount of labor expended on their cul-
ovation. There is profusion Of timber
here surprising any other prairie States,
and even in the centre of our widest
prairies it is rare that the settler is not
within easy access of timber. Few farm

In addition to all this, in our numer-

there is always good market for the

sequence OF this we have population OF
industrious, thriving farmers, who every
year are increasing their means, and ad

deaden you energies, and destroy your

our prairies, get a home of your oaon and

and our vast resources are fast being de
