INCREASE IN
FARM LANDS, aF~
"SoUTHERN ALBERTA IS A
MIGHTY GOOD COUNTRY"

No stronger or better evidence can
be given of the merits OF country
than that which comes from the testi-
mony OF the settler who has deter
mined to succeed. This is why we
reproduce the following letter, which
speaks for itself. These people were in.
duced to go to Western Canada
through the solicitation Of a Canadian
Government agent, who secured for
them the low railway rates.
"Carmangay, Alta, Canada, 12.15-'0S.
Mr. c. J. Broughton, Canadian Gov
ernment Agency, 1856 Adams Street,
Chicago: We had audacity enough to
tackle the proposition OF buying four
sections Of land in Southern Alberta,
thirty miles east of Clairsholm and
heading up on the Little Bow, and our
two boys each got a homestead ad.
joining. We fenced three sections and
the two homesteads, and built a house,
barn, corrals and granary. and have
since enlarged some of these build
ings. We have broken 200 acres OF
land, which has been sowed to oats
and wheat. During the severe winter
of two years ago the winter wheat
killed out somewhat. and our crop
yielded only ten bushels to the acre.
but the spring wheat went "a bushels
TO the acre. In this country we must
be prepared for storms and cold, at
times 20 to 30 below zero, yet on the
whole the winters are mild; and while
there are exceptional crops, 1t is fair
to say that the average farmer can
depend on having a yield in average
years of from 20 to 25 bushels to the
acre for spring wheat; and winter
wheat in our immediate neighborhood
yields from 25 to 80 bushels to the
acre on the average.
We have now quite a bunch OF
horses, over so in all, about $50 sheep.
after having sold 140 for mutton this
fall. We have 20 head of pure bred
registered Shropshire, which are
worth 500 each. The average price
received for mutton sheep was $500
and a little over Pork brings and
6 cents a pound. We have about 30
head of cattle on our ranch now,
and last winter they picked their en-
TIRE HNlnB lToln our pdhluIe, IuhHlHE
to the straw sta cks for shelter at night.
THE increase Of land values has
been extraordinary. Our land four
years ago cost us a little less than
$500 an acre. We have sold one sec
tion for $500, but we would not sell
any more for less than $500 per acre,
as we expect the railroad within four
miles of our ranch within the next IS
months. Southern Alberta Of West
ern Canada is a mighty good country
for any man or woman who oloves outdoor
life, and who wants to get good re-
turns for their labor and investment.
I'VE have been pleased with our
treatment from the Canadian Govern
ment, and can heartily commend South
ern Alberta as a splendid country in
which to locate.
yours very truly,

A COLORADO state officiai wants the |

A Colorado state official wants the
parents punished when the child is de
linquent, on the theory that 1t is the
fault OF the parent. That would be
grand revenge for children after all
OF these years OF engagement with
barrel slaves and skate straps. How
ever, it would be hard on the parents,
as It would mean that there would be
no part of their life free from
punishments. Most OF the parents
grow up before the moral suasion
ideas got very far along and they
would have to stand 1t at both ends.
Their only hope for relief would be in
becoming grandparents as speedily as
possible.

WOULD Bar the Judiciary.

Young ministers sometimes say
some very irreverent things when first
they get in harness. but seldom are
so broadly condemnatory as the young
clergyman who was called upon to act
as chaplain at the opening of a recent
term OF court down in Maine.
After covering everything he could
think OF as appropriate to say from re-
ligion to law. he closed his prayer
with the supplication And, finally,
may we all be gathered in the happy
land where there are no courts, no
lawyers and no judges"
Then they changed chaplains.

Willie, aged five, was taken by his
