IMMIGRATION FROM
SOUTH EXPECTED
U. S. FARMERS ARE RECOGNIZING
SPLENDID OPPORTUNITIES
OFFERED BY WESTERN
CANADA.

st. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 8, 190S.-Pres-
ent indications are that the Canadian
Northwest will draw an exceptionally
heavy movement of new settlers from
the United States this year. Ii should
surpass the banner record for 1907.
This is not only based on the fact
that the Americans have come to
realize generally that the Canadian
Northwest offers splendid opportuni-
ties, hut also because the railroads
have awakened to the fact and are
Offering rates to the Canadian North
west which are exceptionally favor
able.
The lines which lead to st. Paul
from the east and south are Offering
homeseekers' rates to the Canadian
Northwest this year which are on a
parity with those in existence to the
southwest for couple of seasons.
These rates can be obtained from
any agent OF the Canadian govern.
ment, who will be pleased to give all
information possible regarding those
ducements to settlers. The weather
throughout Western Canada has been
remarkably good this year. A tele-
gram from the winter wheat belt of
Southern Alberta dated at Cardston,
Alberta, January 29th, says:
This winter up to January 20 was
nothing short of a marvel, in fact, it
was the finest anyone can remember
for twenty-five years though there
, have been others nearly as good. The
! days were fine, sunny and warm with
light frosts at night. Overcoats and
gloves, etc, were discarded by most
people in the day time. There was
| so little frost in the ground that post
| holes could be dug without any trouble
after the first inch was broken
through. Winter wheat remained
fresh and green although there has
been Eo snow since the September
storm. If there is an early spring,
winter wheat should gain a great
start"
Amongst the reports of the yield
of last year the following extracts are
| taken:
H. Howe. of Magrath, Alta, writ
ing on November, 1907, says: Il have
| 20 acres in crop, so acres of wheat and
seven acres OF cats. My average yield
of oats was 35 bushels to the acre,
and of wheat As bushels. The value
to me was $35 per acre"
j. F. Haycock, of Magrath, writes
in November: 81 had 65 acres in win.
ter wheat, which went so bushels to
the acre; oats averaged so bushels. l
also had IL tons of hay worth $40
per ton. l got 600 bushels of pota-
toes from three acres of land; l got
eight tons per acre from five acres OF
sugar beet"
]. F. Bradshaw, of Magrath, had
1000 acres of winter wheat last year
which averaged 3919 bushels to the
acre. The value of his farm products
per acre was: Wheat, $3160; oats
$11.20 and barley, $25.15.

After having been seriously i'll for

Many rare and valuable paintings
have just been discovered in one of the
subterranean passages of the State
college here. The building was for

of the building in order that their
