American settlers had in cash or
checks $225.00O In a single day the
settlers through st. Paul to Canada
in twenty -four hours represented a
total capital of little more than 81
OOO, 900. Statistics gathered during re-
cent years show that these immi-
grants enrich Canada at the rate oil
about $1,000 per capita. The tota
number of settlers entering CANADA
from the United States i'm the eleven
months ended March l was S6.4SS. foi
the corresponding period of the pre-
vious fiscal year the figures were
50,650.
"These prosperous people seek new
homes because the wheat GROWING
land of the United States is nov
practically all in the hands of indi'
vidual owners, and the farmers witt
families of sons growing up find 1t I'M
possible to obtain an acreage for then
to cultivate when they reach years 81
maturity, the result being that th'
price of wheat growing land in tn
Central and Western States Is forced
up until prices now range from 500
SIS to 800 or 5000 an acre. according
to quality and location.
"The American farmer, knowing tina
he can dispose of his property at sue
advantageous prices and obtain II
