TORY REPORTS,

The census branch of the Depart.

mas completed its returns of the show.
Ing or Western Canada's grain Weld
for 1908, and the reports make very
interesting reading. In the three prov.
lnces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta, which comprise what may be
known as Central Canada, there was a
total wheat yield Of about 07,00O 900
bushels, worth to the farmer about
$S5 100000; in addition to this the oat,
barley and flax crops were worth an.
other $35,000,000. Letters have been
received from many of the settlers
from the United States. From these,
that Of Rev. Oscar L. King has been
selected. He lives in the vicinity of
Edmonton, Alberta, and what he says

Government agent Mr.. King says:
Mr.. M. V. Mclnnnes, Detroit, Mich.
igan: | am we'll satisfied with Al
berta. This country offers excellent
opportunities for anyone to make a
good home for himself and family
if he is willing to put up with few
hard knocks for the first two or three
years. But it is worth few hard
knocks to get 160-acre farm Of rich,
productive land with no mortgage on
it. This province is we'll fitted for
grains, stock raising and dairying. We
have found the climate generally
healthful, more healthful than Mich.
lgan, and although the thermometer
sometimes drops to 40 degrees below
zero in winter, yet we do not seem to
feel that temperature any more than
we did 5 or 10 degrees below zero in
Michigan. We like the winters.
The Government takes great inter
est in the education of the people and
quickly aids the settlers in establish.
ing schools where they are called for.
The schools, though graded differently
than those in the States, are efficient
and advancing. Our great drawback
has been the limited and inadequate
railway facilities, but new roads are
being rapidly built and many more
are projected through various parts
or the province. The new policy of
the Alberta government to construct
q great many branch lines throughout
the province will greatly help all parts
of the country. If those new settlers
who have TO go back a considerable
distance from existing railroads and
towns TO find free homesteads will
but locate along the line of a project
ed railroad they will in two or three
years be near both town and railroad.

speaks of tin the following terms:
DIR. Hartman's remedy, Peruna, I
have found to be the best, if not the only
reliab remedy for COUGHS, COLDS,
CATARRH and diarrhea.
"Peruna has been my standby for
many years, and I attribute my rood
health and my extreme age to this
remedy. 1t exactly meets all my re-
quirements.
Il have come to rely upon it almost
entirely for the many little things for

be especially valuable to old people"
