THE CALL OF THE CANADIAN

The Greatest Wheat Crop of the

Ihc ErenteSt Wheat Crop OF the
Continent.
The year that has just closed has,
done a great deal towards showing the
possibilities of Western Canada from
an agricultural standpoint. The wheat
crop has run very near to the 100000
OCO-bushel limit that was looked upon
as too sanguine an estimate only Il
short time Ago., and the area that has
been broken to fall wheat for the COM
ing harvest will go a long way to-
wards enabling the farmers Of the
West to overlap on the 100000. 600
bushel estimate text year. And while
the spring and winter wheat have
been doing so we'll during the past few
years the other cereals have been keep
ing up with the procession. Rye and
barley have made immense strides, and
peas and flax nave beer moving stead
lily along. Dairying also has been sue
eesSfully carried on in the new prov
inces, and in every stage the farmer
has been striking it rich.' To such an
extent has the success of. the West
taken hold of outsiders, that the rush.
Of Americans to Saskatchewan and
Alberta. which was looked upon as
marvellous last year. bids fair to he.
