ed, and that the tide of immigration
would necessarily turn to Canada.
The fact is this country has much
greater area of surveyed government
lands that are open to settlement
than Canada has, but this has not
prevented comparatively heavy en-
lgration to Canada within the past
ten years. 1t is not a sudden rush
of home-seekers into Canada that has
attracted the attention of the press
and the public by any means, but
rather the sudden rush of American
capital into Canadian lands. So far
as the emigration to- our northern
neighbor is concerned, it has been
going on to such an extent and for
such time that farmers from the
United States are to be found in ev-
cry settled portion of the western
provinces and territories, and in some
sections constitute the bulk of the
population. In the year 1900 10000
people from the states crossed the
border and settled in that section of
Alberta territory lying between Cai-
gary AID Edmonton, and this coun-
try has fer some years been supply

ing from 1000 to $4,000 immigrants
to Canada, practically all of whom go
there to take up government land in
the west.
The following table will give an
idea of the extent of the government
land open for settlement in this coun-
try, though considerable part of
purposes, and much of it is of but
little value for any practical use at
the present time:

In presenting these figures, Mr..
Smith explained that it represented
the total of good agricultural land"
and is probably a larger total of this
class of land than can be found still
open to settlement in the United
States. From this total, however,
must be made several deductions be-
fore we get at the exact number of
acres the government has opened up

tie general total contains 100000
acres owned by the Canadian Pacific
railway, which is for sale at the

other 100000 acres are owned by
the Hudson Bay company, secured by
