Yukon in the search for gold, and has
diverted the attention of many others.
But in order to get there it is necessary
that u man should be possessed of the
best OF health, strong powers of endu-
rance and considerable means. He
leaves his wife and his family for a con-
siderable period, and the hardships he
has to endure are all unknown to him.
Canada has other gold fields, though.
They are the fields that produce her
golden grain. This year the crop OF
Manitoba, lying directly north of North
Dakota, yielded 21,0OO,OO0 bushels of
wheat alone. The current price aver
ages 76 cents. which, as a local paper
puts it, makes the product in gold this
year, for wheat alone, equal to a value
of SIS, $50, 600" Twenty thousand farm
ers did this, or an average to each pro-
Queer of about 1898.
But these same farmers are not liv-
ing by wheat alone. This is only one
source of revenue to them out of many.
They have also beef, butter, potatoes,
oats. barley and poultry to sell. and
sometimes other things. so that it may
be fairly estimated that their incomes
will average at least $1,000 per farmer.
Thus Manitoba's fields have yielded
this year fully s20,000,000 in gold, di-
vided among 10000 actual producers,
and a general population of about 200,-
OO0''
After counting the cost of stamp
mills, expenses of men, ETC., rich as is
the KlOndike, such vast wealth as is be-
ing taken out of the soil in raising
wheat in this one province, cannot pos
sibly be secured in any mining district.
Of course mining development assists
agricultural development, and that is
why the Government of Canada feels
so much assurance in predicting pros
perity to all who take up farms in Can
ada. Western Canada today promises
more than any other known field that is
open to immigration. Farms of 160
acres, capable of producing the best
No. hard wheat, yielding thirty to for
ty bushels to the acre, are given away
free. Railways, markets. schools,
churches-all are convenient. The
Canadian form of government is one of
the most liberal known, and a hearty
welcome is given to settlers of all ma
tionalities. Already there are many set
tiers gone in from the states, and the
reports from them are highly favorable
