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

Three young provinces, Manitoba,
Saskatchewan, and Alberta, " says 4
/ New York financial Journal, have al.
ready made Winnipeg one OF the great
est primary wheat markets OF the
world. In 1904 they raised $4,000, 900
bushels OF wheat Five years later
they produced 150.00O,0O0 bushels. In
1913 the crop Appropriated 200 0,000,-
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-
imately it viii dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has been the pioneer Of our
development. Undoubtedly It win
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 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 It's horses, Is cows
and 1000 head of poultry. Another
class OF settler has arrived at Peers.
110 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 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 sen
tral portions Of all these provinces,
the settlement Of new people is going
on steadily. Early In April, Peter
GoertZ arrived IN Cardiff after six.
day Journey from Mcpherson, Kansas.
Mr.. Goertz who had purchased land
here was In charge OF a party OF 3S
people from the same part of Kansas
and they came through with 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
sAat railroad. The farms purchased
by the members Of the party are
amongst the best in the district.
When the Panama exposition opens
next year any OF the three transcon.
tinental lines In Canada viii make
convenient means Of transport for
those going to visit, and In doing
SO agricultural districts of Western
Canada can be seen, and ocular dem
onstration given those who have heard
but not before seen, OF that which has
attracted so many hundreds of thou

a WOMAN NEEDS TO
EXERCISE REGULARLY
fgv Betty elsrnsv9

(ey Betty eIarnsy.)
 4 college woman has discovered that it isn't enough to have only four years of real athletics. She says you need exercise just as much, and more. after you go igto business as while you were studying in college. Not only exercico. but fun while you take it.
 To put it perfectly, woman needs play The harder her work during lhe day the more she needs 1t. Coed, lively play tht will loosen up her muscles and get her in a glow. that Will take her mind off her worries and put her into healthy physical competition with other women like herself.
 This young woman has formed o club which meets twice Q week Monday evenings for exercise on the track, for folk dancing. swimming, bowling, basketball, handball, and Fri day evenings for riding
 A girl can join for both evenings or for one. as she prefers. She can choose the games che likes best. and play with tho groups she knows or meet new ones
 The idea is that rules and regula- tions should be as few as possible and that the main idea is good time in a healthy. athletic way.
 The plan has met with the great est success and is to be much ex- tended A large gymnasium is hired for the chosen evening, and with 60 large 2 class to meet expenses the individual cost is slight-only f5 a head from November to April l5 iol the Monday evenings. Every neigh borhood or section Of the city should have such an association. l If college women why not other wo- menG A college girl has learned the value of gymnastics and the fun 1T play but other women are capable Q. learning Che lesson with Q llttle prac tlce.
 A club Of twenty or forty girla could have 8 glorious time by hir ing the services of couple Of goo, instructors and securing one night . week in well equipped gymnasium.

LORD
 TO DRIVE
 OFFENSIVE

LONDON, Dec. 23.-Again there comes trickling through from Holland reports of vast movements of German forces from East to West.
 A dispatch reaching here ct noon from Amsterdam says that thousands of German troops have passed through Aix-la- ChapelIe toward Northern France, in the last tWenty-four hours.
 This activity may be fore runner of a renewed German of- fensive in the. Western. arena, under the eyes of the Kaiser, who reached the battlefield to- day, accompanied by his suite. Or, the militarists argue, the massing of German troops may be intended to offset the rein forcements Great Britain has been lately throwing into the French field of hostilities.
 Alliee Make Prosress.
 The early communique issued at Paris said slight progress was made by the Allies on the Northern end of the battleline in France and Bel gium. Fog caused the slackening ol tho fighting near Arras. Advances were claimed near Perthe-Sleshuflus, where German machine guns .yieza captured.

aA0EEY LAND DECISION
 HANDED OUT TODAY


 The local land ofNde this morning save a decision. in tho. case Of Hans Anderson. Against George Mumford. involving tho site of the old Hadley shelter. Register c. B. Walker and Receiver Frank A. Boyle of the Ju- neau land office hold that the land is non-mineral in character and dis misses the protest Of Anderson.
 The land in question was located as the smelter site in 1907 by Mum ford who applied for it with soldiers additional homestead script. Ander- son protested Mumford's right to pat ont on the ground that he owned three lode mining claims on the same tract of ground which were located in 1908.
 The case came on for hearing in the Juneau land office last May. Mau- rice D. Leehy, Of Seattle and Charles IT. Cosgrove. Of Ketchikan represent- ed Mumiord at the hearing while Ka- zis Krauczunas, represented Ander- son
 The case Is interesting in view of the feet that the Granby people have re- cently bought outright or taken an op- ton on the Mamie mine and other properties at Hadley and viii probably have use for the old smelter site.
