Pattee was in a similar position, and the diligent and learned manner in whici: he handled that duty won for him the regard of all people.

ONE DOLLAR WHEAT.
Western Canada's Wheat Fields Pro.
duce It-Magnifcent Yields-Free
Grants Of Land to Settlers.

The returns of the Interior Depart
ment show that the movement Of
American farmers northward to Can
ada Is each month affecting larger
areas Of the United States. Time was.
says the Winnipeg Free Press, when
the Dakotas, Minnesota and Iowa fur
nished the Dominion with the main
bulk Of its American contingent Last
year, however, forty-four states and
districts were represented In the off,
cial statement as to the former resi-
dence Of Americans who had home
steads in Canada. The Dakotas still
head the list, with 1905 entries, Min
nesota being close second with 1857.
but with the exception of Alabama and
Mississippi and Delaware every state
In the Union supplied settlers who, in
order to secure farms in the fertile
prairie country Of Canada, became
citizens Of, and took the oath Of al
legiance to, the Dominion. Last year
no less than 11.S41 Americans entered
for homestead lands in Canada.
From the Gulf to the Boundary, and
from ocean to ocean, the trek to the
Dominion goes on. Not only the
wheatgrowers Of the central MISSISSIPPI
pi valley, but the ranchers of Texas
and New Mexico, and the cultivators
OF the comparatively virgin soil of Oh
lahoma, are pouring towards the pro-
ductive vacant lands of the Canadian
Northwest. 1t is no tentative, half
hearted departure for an alien coun-
try that Is manifested in this exodus;
It has become almost rush 10 secure
possession of land which 1t Is feared.
by those imperfectly acquainted with
the vast area of Canada's vacant lands,
may all be acquired before they ar.
rive. There is no element Of specula-
ton or experiment in the migration.
The settlers have full information re-
specting the soil, wealth, the farming
methods, the laws, taxation and sys-
tenn of government Of the country to
which they are moving, and they real
lie that the opportunities offered In
Canada are in every respect better and
greater than those they have enjoyed
In the land they are leaving.
Canada can we'll afford to welcome
cordially every American farmer COM
ing to the Dominion. There is no
question but that these immigrants
make the most desirable settlers OBJ
tainable for the development Of the
prairie portion of the Dominion. Full
information can be had from any au-
thorized Canadian Government Agent
whose address will be found elsewhere.
