They are Pleased
with the Land

The Lethbridge Alberta Times is
enthusiastic over the settlement
work done by the o. w. Kerr Co.
OF Fargo, n that vicinity, who
recently purchased a large tract at
Warner and also own the town
site. Of the party taken there
several weeks ago, thirty-four out
OF thirty-fve purchased land, and
are we'll pleased with the soil and
climate. One farmer in that vi
cinity who settled there last year
has already sown 200 acres Of
wheat this spring. Charles A
Grettrm is looking after the in
terests of the company at Warner
and he reports that they will bring
i'll about 500 settlers every sixty
days.
The next Special Chartered Car
leaves st. Paul, MINI, Tuesday
April 18th, on the 500 Railway
Parties will be taken on at inter
mediate points. This will be the
best opportunity offered to see the
land. An interesting letter from
Judge Anxiety of Minneapolis is
given below:
NY-,rl ~ 1nnn
Mr. CA. G-c tuin, Manager Land
DEPT. The &. NJ. kcrr Co.,
Iergo, \. ID.
Having learned il Minneapolis
of YOUR large tract oil land in
Southern Alberta. I iatcl,. made
one OF a p2rt.g OF between 30 and
40 members, most q when were
farmers wishing uomake selections
OF Canada lands. ! have traversed
the region in which your lands lie,
and | have no hesitation in saving
that your lands are even better
than you have claimed them to be.
They are gently undulating, have
a fine soil, and-wllat is of first |
nomenclature a clay subsoil of
unusual depth which must ensure
the retention OF moisture under
ordinary conditions. The climate
is superb. In driving for DAYS it
was unnecessary to button up
ones %overcoat, and generally one
was not needcdatall. Chinook
winds from the Pacific make the
climate, i'll the succession Of seas /
ons, mild, h%ealthful and temperate.
To find combined. in all the broad
limits of Canada, the same CON F
ditions would be difficult ifnot i'm /
possible. The day ofcheap land is
rapidly passing and my own CON
viction is that no proper invest
ment III the lands you are now
offering will proveto be a mistake.
This opinion is backed by the pur-
chase l have made from you and
only regret it could not be larger.
Most truly yours,

Colored Congregationalist

Rev. H. w. Porter, pastor of the
Union Congregational church. will
leave on Tuesday September 1S, to at
end the convention of Congregational
minister's and teachers of the colored
churches and schools in the south.
Little is known of the real work
which is being done by the colored
Congregationalists, yet he work is
having it's effect In raising the men
tal moral. physical, financial and
spiritual standing of the negro in all
parts of this country. 1t is often said
that the congregational church Is not
known among the negroes. Such
statement is only made by those who
are not acquainted with the work be-
ing done by the negro Congregations
alists.
Again. the Congregational church
has given to tho field some of the
most prominent men among the ne
grOes. as well as women who are the
leading factors in the uplift of the
negro race.
Our institutions have been broad in
their work in tha Baptiss. Methodists
and all denominations have been aud
are being educated not as denomina-
tional men and woman but as intelli-
gent Christians.
In the south the negroes have six
chartered institutions, GA common and
graded schools. 476 instructors and
$1,000 pupils. $50 churches. 1876 min
listers and missionaries, 12,549 church
members and 1886 pupils in Sunday
schools This is the work of the Con
gregational church among the negroes
of the south. a church that stands
for an intelligent ministry and mode
Of worship and church that recog
nizes Jesus Christ as it's head.
Three hundred or more workers will
assemble at Memphis, Tenn, Septem-
Der 90 to 25, to devise plans for the
advancement of this work so well be-
gum We know that the field is the
world and there is work for all to do.
We shall labor on with the bright
reward in view
