I truly think Canada offers a fine
opening for young man or a man
who is renting land in Indiana. One
! hundred and sixty acres of good black
land will cost you on4y $40 at the time
you enter it, and by blowing and Gull
| tivating five acres each year for three
years; gives you one hundred and sixty
acres of good land for $40. This land
can be bought from the railroad COM
panies, private corporations or the gov
ernment for So to 81 per acre.
From financial standpoint, 1 be.
lieve that for a series of years (ive)
a young man can make $40 in Canada,
whereas he. would only make 81 here,
and feel sure that l spent more
money to get my eighty acre farm in
White county, Indiana, cultivated than
it would cost me to cultivate eight
hundred acres in Canada. This may
seem a strong view to take Of the
matter. but when you take into con-
sideration the clearing, ditching, fenc-
ing and the expensive breaking in of
the stumps, and then compare the ex-
pense to that of land needing only the
breaking, you will conclude that it is
not such wild or exaggerated state
ment as you might at first think.
I enjoyed the balmy, breezy atmos-
phere, which was bracing and refresh
ing, and the cool nights which made it
| SO pleasant for sleep.
On making inquiries regarding the
winters in this country, learned that
the people never suffer from the cold,
as the weather is dry and invigorat-
ing, and in great many places farm
ers and herders allow their stock to
run outside the year round.
One great advantage to the settlers
in Western Canada is the free cream
cries established by the government
and run exclusively in the interest
of the farmer.
