The Spring Wheat Areas Are Rapidly
Increasing.
It Is only few short years since
the impression prevailed that large
portion OF the Canadian West was un-
fiteed for agriculture. To such an
extent did this impression prevail
that districts larger than European
principalities were devoted solely to
ranching purposes, and focks and
herds roamed the ranges. But the
agriculturist was doing some hard
thinking, and gradually experiments
were made, slowly at first, but sure
ly later on. AS result, to-day in
Southern Alberta, which was looked
upon as the "arid belt" large quanti-
ties Of the finest winter wheat in the
world are now grown, and so salts
fed are the farmers and buyers that
the industry has passed the expert
mental stage that elevators by the
score have been erected in the past
two years and others in course of
erection, to satisfy the demands that
will be made upon them in the near
future.

wheat has achieved world dwide
reputation, and there can be no ques-
tion that ere long mo. / Hard" win
ter wheat from Alberta will attain
similar repute. The great market for
this production will undoubtedly be
the Orient, and, with increased rail
way facilities and the erection of adj
ditional elevators and Touring mills,
a largely increased acreage will be
| broken to winter wheat. The increase
| of population in Southern Alberta in
the past year has been largely due
| to settlers from the United States
