Every suffering woman owes 1t to herself to give Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound trial.

 NOW WORTH &s,o0ooo.

My parents were originally Cana was born in Monroe County. Michigan. from which place moved to Red Lake Falls, Minnesota, where 1 farmed for 22 years. I sold my farm there in the summer of 1903 and in September of that year came to Canada with my wife and eight children. l had about $400 in cash, team of horses, COW, few sheep and some chickens. I took up quarter section of land near Jack Fish Lake, Meota P. O., and later on purchased for $2 100000 an adjoining quarter section. I have now AS head of cattle, number of horses. good buildings and consider my holding is worth at least ss,00000 My children have raised from $500 to $500 worth of garden truck each year since we have been here. I have never had a poor crop and have never had one frosted. My wheat has averaged from 25 to 30 bushels per acre with one or two years considerably nor . My oats have always yielded well up to 50 DuShVAs pti dSiC anu OnCc ol lWiCC dS high as S5. My cattle have never been stabled in winter. and do not need it. consider that this country offers bet ter opportunities for settlers than any where I have ever been. l am sure that almost any person can come here and buy land at say $15.00 per acre and pay for 1t in one crop. My ex- perience is that If man farms his land in the right way he is not likely to have his crop frosted.
 Most of the settlers in my district are Americans and Canadians and I know lots of them who came here with little or no capital who are now do ing well. but do not know of any who have left through disappointment, or becoming discouraged, have returned to their former homes.
