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

Three young provinces, Manitoba,
Saskatchewan, and Alberta" says .
New York financial journal, have al
ready made Winnipeg one Of the great
est primary wheat markets Of the
world. In 1904 they raised 6S,000. 900
bushels Of wheat. Five years later
they produced 150, 900. 900 bushels. In
1918 the crop approximated 100000
900 bushels. At the present rate Of
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third In
the line of wheat producers. U1ti-
mately II will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has been the pioneer Of our

last calendar year our trade with Can

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 means to the
people OF the United States.
The influx of American settlers to
the Canadian prairies is now in full
swing. Within the past few days
over 80 Of those arrived at Bassano
carrying with them effects and capital
to the value Of 100000. Fifty settlers
from Oregon arrived in Alberta a few
days ago; while Is families Of settlers
from the state Of Colorado arrived at
Calgary on their journey northwards.
The goods and personal effects of this
party filed 20 box cars. OF live stock
alone they had 175 horses, 15 cows
and 1000 head of poultry. Another
class Of settler has arrived at Peers,
ITO miles west Of Edmonton, where no
fewer than 200 German farmers have
taken up land. These are from good
farming families and brought with
them a large amount of capital.
