WESTERN CANADA AROUSING
GREAT INTEREST.
The Wonderful Yields of wheat-At-
tracing Thousands

Until the last five or six years but
little attention was givtn to that
vast area of producing land
lying north of the 10th parallel and
Immediately adjoining the northern
boundaries of Minnesota and Dakota.
The Canadians thems elves were
aware of the wealth that lay there,
but being unable to fully occupy it,
they have asked the Americans to
assist them in converting the land
from it's virgin state to one that will
largely supplement the grain-produc-
ing area of the North American Con-
tinent, and the response has been
most liberal.
During the year 1901 upwards Of
10000 from the United States went
over to Canada, being induced to set
tie there by the reports that reached
them of the success of those who had
preceded them during the previous
years. This 10000 was increased to
10000 during the year 1902, and it is
fully expected that there will be fully
$4,000 during the present year. The
work of the immigration branch of the
! Canadian Government is not now be-
ing directed towards giving informa-
ton as to the advantages of settle
ment in Canada a. it is to extending an
invitation to the American to follow
those who have gone.
Those who have charge of the work
point with considerable pride to the
duced to take advantage of the offer
of 160 acres of land free in Canada, and
| have no cause to hesitate in continuing
| the invitation. Many of those interest
| ed say there are no more free home
steads to be had in Canada, but the
writer has most positive assurance
from the Canadian Government that
there are thousands of such home
steads to be had, and in one of the dis
tricts now being opened up fully as
good as the best, and it is probably the
best.
The Canadian Government has estab-
| hshed Agencies at St. Paul, Mimi;
Omaha, Neb.; Kansas City, Mo-; Chi
cago, ILL.,; Indianapolis, Ind; Milwau-
kee, Wis; Wausau, Wis; Detroit, Sault
| Ste. Marie and Marquette, Mich; To-
| ledo, Ohio; Watertown, S. Dakota;
Grand Forks, n. Dakota, and Great
Falls, Montana, and the suggestion is
made that by addressing any of these,
who are the authorized agents of the
Government, it will be to the advantage
of the reader, who will be given the
| fullest and most authentic informa-
ton regarding the results of mixed
farming, dairying, ranching, and grain
raising. and also supply information as
to freight and passenger rates, etc.

It must be apparent to every one that
qualities of the highest order are neces-

modern commerce to attain permanently

heralded, they may not hope for worldwide
prominence unless they meet with the
general approval, not of individuals only,
but Of the many who have the happy
faculty of selecting, enjoying and learn
ing the real worth of the choicest prod
ucts. Their commentator, consequently,
becomes important to others, since to
meet the requirements of the we'll in
formed of all countries the method Of
manufacture must be Of the most per-
feet order and the combinatio the most
excellent of its kind. The above is true
not of food products only, but is espe-
cially applicable to medicinal agents and
after nearly quarter of century of
growth and general use the excellent
remedy. Syrup Of Figs, is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family laxatives. It's quality is
due not only to the excellence of the
combination of the laxative and carmin-
ative principles of plants known to act
most benefcially on the system and pre-
scented in the form Of a pleasant and re-
freshing liquid, but also to the method
of manufacture Of the California Fig

and attainment of these objects,
would it not be very we'll for the

A change of venue shall be
