CANADA'S PLACE
AS A PRODUCER
Canada Is Getting a Great Many
Americans.

Three young provinces, Manitoba,
Saskatchewan, and Alberta" says a
New York financial journal, have al
ready made Winnipeg one of the great
est primary wheat markets of tho
world. In 1904 they raised SO, 900, 900
bushels OF wheat. Five years later
they produced $50, 600, 900 bushels. In
1913 h crop Appropriated 00,000,-
600 bushels. At the present rate of
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third in
the line Of wheat producers. Ulti-
mately 1t will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has beer the pioneer Of our
development. Undoubtedly it will
prove the same with Canada. In the
last calendar year our trade with Can
ada amounted to 497 million dollars.
Only with two countries-the United
Kingdom and Germany-is our trade
greater. No vivid imagination is
needed to see what the future devel-
opment OF Canada mean TO the
people OF the United States.
The influx OF American settlers to
the Canadian p~rairies is now in full
swing. Within the past few days
over sc OF those arrived ar Bassano
carrying with them effects and capital
to the value of s10O, 900. Fifty settlers
from Oregon arrived in Alberta a few
Gays ago; while 10 families of settlers
from the state OF Colorado arrived at
Calgary on their journey northwards.
Inc goods and personal effects OF this
party filled 20 box cars. OF live stock
alone they had 175 horses, Is cows
and 1000 head of poultry. Another
class Of settler has arrived at Peers,
ITO miles west Of Edmonton, where no
fewer thar 200 German farmers have
taken up land. These are from good
farming families and brought with
them a large amount of capital.
Then in South Western Saskatche-
wan, there are large numbers settling.
these from the United States predomi-
mating, while in the northern and cen
trail portions of all these provinces,
the settlement OF new people is going
on steadily. Early In April, Peter
Goertz arrived in Cardiff after a six.
day journey from Mcpherson, Kansas.
Mr.. Goertz who had purchased land
here was in charge of a party of 38
people from the same part of Kansas
and they came through with a special
train which included all their stock
and Implements. The equipment was
all Rock Island cars, and was the first
full immigrant train ever sent out by
that railroad. The farms purchased
by the members Of the party are
amongst the best in the district.
