tells the Record that he didn't find any
golden EIdorado in that locality for
men with small capital. He found
crops in that locality not showing any
big yields, prices low on all farmers
products and prices high on everything
they had 10 buy. Oats sold at "A cents
per bushel, and 80 bushels was very
good yield. Wheat sold as low as "a
cents and 55 cents. and Is bushels per
acre was an average yield Well loca-
ted land is taken up. and the person
looking for homestead land found il so
to 80 miles from the railroad. An or
binary harvester sold for $40. and all
farm machinery in proportion. He
says he Is glad to get home, where he
can hear the eagle scream. and is
satisfied that Michigan offers more OPP
portunities to the farmer than Canad-
ian northwest.
IL is doubtless true that plenty OF
testimony of this character would be
valuable II IL could be reached.
There isn't a county from the Sagi-
nav river TO Keweenaw but offers bet
ter inducements and more comforts of
life TO the settlers than TO those far
away provinces. Fertility Of soil does
not compensate for lack of the ordin-
airy comforts of civilization. The
winters up in that region are long and
the weather severe. The religious and
educational advantages are meager.
The markets are unreliable. Thief ar
mer may be able to sell his products
and he may not be able to dispose of
them at profit. Transportation faci-
lities are limited, and there are many
unpleasant vicissitudes TO which every
settler is subjected.
In northern Michigan there is any
quantity of good land available. the
water courses are numerous and good
water in abundance always available.
The region is traversed by numerous
lines of railroad IL is right In the
region OF the country. Excellent school
and religious advantages are within
reach OF all and the fuel problem is
not vexatious.
The man who wants a farm in re-
gion in which all the advantages Of
civilization are available. where des-
tructive storms in summer and in win
ter do not disturb the settler. will be
satisfied with northern Michigan If
satisfied with any location.
There are people who are continually
on the move and never find what they
want. They go farther and in the
majority Of instances fare worse. -
