10000 AMERICAN
SETTLERS GO
70 CANADA
THE YEAR 1909 HAS SHOWN AN
INCREASE OF OVER EIGHTY
PER CENT IN AMERICAN
SETTLEMENT.

Recent advices from Canada, our
next door neighbour, the neighbouriy
country across the boundary line.
are that upwards Of ninety thousand
settlers from the United States went
into Western Canada during the past
year, most of them for the purpose OF
taking up and settling upon the va
cant lands, 16O acres Of which are
given free by the government, ana
lands adjoining held by railway and
land companies are selling at from
nine to fifteen and twenty dollars per
acre. Even II thirty and forty dollars
per acre were paid, the price would be
low, as the lands produce wonderfully
and at these higher figures there Is
large interest on the money and labor
invested. The ninety thousand set
tiers Of last year, followed about sixty
thousand Of the previous year, and for
several years the number has been
running into these large figures. There
must be a reason for 1t. 1t may be
found in the single phrase, they are
satisfied" Nothing attracts people
more than the success Of others, and
the news Of this reaching other thou
sands, causes them to investigate. The
investigation in this case is always
satisfactory. The splendid land OF
Iowa, of Indiana, Of Nebraska, Kansas,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio
and other States has risen to high
value. and 1t is worth every dollar
asked for it. But there is not room
now for all on these lands. With the
ever increasing demand for grain,
there comes the ever increasing de-
mand for land. Canada is the only
country on the continent in a position
to supply It. Land there that costs,
say fifteen dollars an acre, produces
on q reasonable calculation, rs bushels
of wheat to the acre, or about $4,000.
The most liberal calculation as to cost
makes the cost to produce $3.50 per
acre, leaving a balance Of $3.50 per
acre. The $3.50 carries good wages
for the farmer, and all other conceiv.
able contingencies. With conditions
like this, covering the entire area Of
about 100000 square miles. 1t is read
fly understood why 10000 Americans
should follow the sixty thousand Of
the previous year. Canadian Govern
ment Agencies at different points in
the Union are always ready to give In
formation regarding the free home
stead lands. ready 10 advise the set
tier as to the districts which would
suit him best.

Charming prawIna.RoOm.

There Is an old manor house, "far
from the madding crowd" in the south
of England, which possesses a pearl
among drawing-rooms. Long and low
with raftered ceiling and latticed win
dows looking south and west, 1t has
charms which no modern room can
boast. Walls and floor are subdued
IN coloring and the windows hung with
dainty brocade curtains. The huge open
fireplace is never, even in summer,
without a fire, which lights up its
old Dutch tiles and oak paneling and
fiickers merrily on the heavy brass
firedogs. The carved mantelpiece is
crowded with old china and beaten
brass ornaments. Old OIL paintings
some Of them family portraits, and
pierced brass sconces holding tall
wax candles adorn the walls. The
furniture is a fascinating medley Of
Queen Anne, Chippendale and Shera'
ton, "courting" settees and bow
legged chairs. Near the door stands
an old tapestry screen and a convex
mirror hangs above the inlaid bureau
There are masses Of flowers every
