On the following days the young hunters dis

FALL WHEAT RAISING
IN ALBERTA.
The Spring Wheat Areas Are rapidly
Increasing.

II Is only q few short years since
the impression prevailed that largs
portion OF the Canadian West was un-
fitted for. agriculture. To such an ex-
tent did this impression prevail that
districts larger than European prin-
cipalities were devoted solely to ranch
ing purposes, and fiocks and herds
roamed the ranges. But the agricul-
turist was doing some hard thinking,
and gradually experiments we're made,
slowly at first, but surely later on. AS
q result, to-day in Southern Alberta,
which was looked upon as the "arid
belt" large quantities Of the finest
winter wheat in the world are now
grown, and so satisfied are the farm
ers and buyers that the industry has
passed the experimental stage that
elevators by the score have been erect
ed in the past two years and others
are in course OF erection, to satisfy
the demands that will be made upon
them in the near future.
Manitoba mo. 1 Hard" spring wheat
has achieved worldwide reputation
and there can be no question that ere
long "NO. Hard" winter wheat from
Alberta will attain similar repute
The great market for this production
will undoubtedly be the Orient, and
with increased railway facilities and
the erection of additional elevators ant
Touring mills, a largely increased acre
age will be broken to winter wheat
The increase of population in South
ern Alberta in the past year has beer
largely due to settlers from the United
States, who have brought in capital
and enterprise, and who have beer
uniformly successful in their under.
takings. A few more such years Of
growth and Turkey Red" winter
wheat will wave from Moose Jaw to
the foothills. Information regarding
lands in the Fall and Spring Wheat
belts may be obtained of any Canadian
government agent.
