GREAT PROGRESS
OF WEST CANADA
GOOD PLACE TO co IN THE
STRUGGLE FOR DAILY BREAD
WHERE THE GOVERNMENT
BUILDS ROADS, RUNS CREAM
ERIEs AND LOOKS AFTER IT'S
PEOPLE.

The struggle for bread, is as old as
the human race; advancement and
education makes a demand for a bet
ter bread.
Bread is made from wheat, and the
demand for better bread, makes the
investor look for the land that pro-
duces the best wheat.
Saskatchewan won the sweepstake
prize for best wheat grown on the
North American continent at New
York in October, 1911.
We sell land that produces the No.
| hard that can always be traded for
gold, as it is what the people demand
today for their bread; we have 100, 900
acres of the choicest wheat lands in
the world, located in the famous Car
rot River district, that we are offering
for the first time to homeseekers and
investors, where there is good set
tlement, railroads, markets, churches
and school; where fuel is cheap, water
plentiful, and the purest, and these are
potent factors, which give our terri
tory a desirable preference over any
other part Of Canada, these lands To-
Gated as they are On the main line Of
the Canadian Northern railway, near
to the Hudson Bay railway which is
building, and will be completed in time
to carry the wheat to Liverpool via
Hudson bay in 1913, thereby bringing
this section 1900 miles nearer Euro
pean market, than the west central
states are.
No insect pest to east the crop, no
hot winds, plenty of moisture, and no
irrigation required; heavy clay sub
soil, with a deep vegetable loan tor
soil from 2 to 3 feet deep, not sticky
gumbo, no alkali; the lands are as
mellow as a garden, and as fertile as
the Nile.
Government patent deed guaranteed
by the government, deed abstracts at
only so cents when you want to sell.
No lawyer fee to give title, as gov
eminent does that free Of cost; no
government taxes. except $1.60 per
quarter section, no taxes on personal
property, or industry; free schools and
free school books.
Government guaranteed banks; Sas-
katchewan government appropriation
of $5,000,000 for country road and
bridges; government owns creameries,
and paid 27.3 per pound net to farm
ers for six summer months, for butter
fat 1911; 1875 cents per pound net 10
farmers for six winter months of 1911.
A rich soil in mari phosphoric acid
and potassium and lime. .
Regina, the capital city has doubled
in one year, and is now growing at the
rate of 1,5OO per month.
The Saturday Evening Post is au-
thority that western Canada, has dou-
bled her building operations in the last
two years.
Thirty-ive Canadian cities made a
greater increase per cent that 206 U. S
cities OF same size, and these 206 the
best that the u. S. could get.
Government aided projects in Can.
ada, make the u. s. governments
little venture at Panama look quite
modest; there is now under construc-
ton railways at a o. of $500, 600, 900;
it is deepening the WeIland canal at
a cost of 100000, 900, all to make out
let for Saskatchewan products. The
government builds bridges, court
houses, registration offices, land title
offices, jails, postofhces. and aids lib
orally in improving public highways.
Government telephones and elevators
without tax to the farmer.
Department of immigration for Cam
ada estimates 175, 900 new settlers from
the u. s. alone for 1912; only $4,000
American settlers here now, so that
Champ Clark can well be frightened at
this years prospects, as they now find
that western Canada produces staples
that always bring gold.
In 1910 Minnesota took first prize
among the various sections of the
North American continent as a pro-
Queer Of wheat In 1911 the honors
fell to Saskatchewan, and will remain
in Saskatchewan for years to come,
because their yield was just an aver
age last year, and yet Saskatchewan
produces over 100000 more bushels
Of small grain than it's nearest COM
p%etitor, and 1912 will far surpass all
previous years.
Hon. w. r. Motherwell the minister
or agriculture for Saskatchewan, just
reports to us that Saskatchewan has
increased her wheat area Is per cent
which means 7,815,500 acres in wheat
this season; Manitoba unchanged with
100000 Alberta unchanged with
spring wheat 10000 acres. and much
of this is winter killed wheat resown
to spring wheat, so that Alberta's area
of winter wheat will be less and price
of wheat higher this fall with Sas-
katchewan holding the full ~granaries
to change for the worlds gold.
The earning power Of the farms in
one year was $1,46O to every nan and
woman in the province. The forego-
ing are a few of the reasons why we
ask you to take advantage of our ex-
ceptional low rate, and superb equip
ment and go and see for yourself what
a mighty future this "the last west"
has in store for the homeseeker and
investor. Our rate OF SIS for the round
