WESTERN CANADA
CAME INTO EVIDENCE
At THE CRUCIAL PERIOD FOR
SUPPLY OF WORLDS FOOD
sTuFFS.

The present demand for foodstuffs
in all parts of the world, and the ex-
pense of producing 1t on high-priced
lands, would make it seem that west
ern Canada came into evidence at the
crucial period. There is to be found
the opportunity that will be large
factor in meeting this demand. With
its millions of acres Of land, easily
cultivatable, highly productive, acces-
sible to railways, and with unexcelled
climatic conditions, the opportunities
that are offered and afforded are too
great to be overlooked.
There have been booms in almost
every civilized country and they were
looked upon as such, and in the course
of time the bubble was pricked and
was burst. But in no country has the
development been as great nor as
rapid, whether in city or in country.
as in western Canada.
The provinces of Manitoba, Sas.
katchewan and Alberta>have the larg-
est area of desirable lands on the
North American continent, and their
cultivation has just begun.
Even with a two hundred million
bushel wheat crop, less than eight
per cent. of the land is under the
ploughs, four per cent. being in wheat,
Less than five years ago the wheat
crop was only 100000 bushels. 1t
is a simple calculation to estimate
that II four per cent. of the available
cultivatable area produces something
over 20000O,00O bushels. what will A
per cent produce? And then look at
the immigration that is coming into
the country. In 1901 it was 49,149,
1900 being from the United States;
in 1906 it was 1879 ,064, of which $1,000
were Americans, and In 1913 it was
about 100000, OF which about 100000
were Americans. But why have they
gone to Canada? The American farm
er Is man Of shrewd business In
stincts, just like his Canadian brother,
and when he finds that he can sell his
own farm at from 500 to 5000 per
acre and move into Canada and home
stead and pre-empt half section for
himself, and similarly for all his sons
who are adult and Of age upon lands
as rich and fertile as those he left,
and producing indeed several bushels
to the acre in excess of anything he
has ever known, it will take more
than an ordinary effort to prevent him
from making the change.
And then, too, there is the American
capital following the capital of Drawn,
muscle and sinew, following 1t so as
to keep in touch with the Industrious
farmer with which 1t has had dealings
for years back. This capital and the
capital of farming experience is no
small matter in the building up Of a
country.
Nothing is said of the great mineral
and forest wealth. Of which but little
has been touched.
No country in the worlds history
has attracted to its borders a larger
number of settlers in so short time,
or has attracted so much wealth In a
period of equal length, as have the
Canadian prairies. Never before has
pioneering been accomplished under
conditions so favorable as those that
exist in western Canada today.-Ad-

SENATE IS PUSHING
 APPROPRIATION BILLS
IT IS NOW HOPED TO HAVE THEM ALL our OF THE WAY BY
 THE END OF JUNE.

Washington, June 16,--With Presi- dent Wilson insisting on the enact ment of the full program of antitrust legislation at the present session and the fall campaigns calling for active work, democratic senate leaders to- day began preparations to put through trust legislation and get away from Washington late in July.
 So far in the senate committees handling antitrust measures there has been some spirit of collaboration between democrats and republicans and if this spirit is shown on the floor adjournment at the end of six weeks is not thought impossible. It was said today a call for demo. cratic party conference on trust leg. islation might be issued before long. This would give an opportunity for al understanding on the main trust bill features and for an agreement on debate
 There is every prospect that the senate will pass all annual appropria- ton bills by the end of June. As an evidence of the speed it can put on, the senate today put through the dip lomatic and the pension approximation bills and got well along in ccnsdera- ton of the Indian biIl After the In dian biil only the sundry civil and rivers and harbors bill must he passed.

HAS RENDERED HIS RESIGNATION AS SECOND CHIEF OF CON
 STITUTIONALlST ARMY
WILL BECOME A GOVERNOR
Villa Refused to Assist Natera In At
 tack On Zacatecas and Is Supported
 by Other Generals of Brigades-ViI- las Friends Take Telegraph Office.

Laredo, Texas, June l6.-lt was re- ported in official circles today that Francisco Villa has rendered his re- signation as second chief of the Con stitutonalst army and will become governor of the state of Chihuahua, succeeding Fidel Ayila, who is tempo rarily acting in that post Rumor states that it is likely that Felipe Ageles, at present Secretary of War for the Constitutionalists will succeed Villa.
 The resignation of Villa is due, it is said, to General Natera's attempt to take zacatecas without orders.
 Current reports state that Villa with fifteen thousand men is enroute to Zacatecas to reinforce Natera but other sources state there is nothing to this, that Villa refused to assist and has been supported by other generals of brigades. However, it is not be- lieved there is any rupture between Villa and Carranza.
 It is reported Carranza has called together chief army officers of various brigades under General Villa for the purpose of selecting by vote a second in command to succeed Villa in the same way as the latter was chosen.
 It was stated that it was the ambi- tion rf Carranza to fight his way through to the capital and when he reaches that piace one of his first endeavors will be to bring about im- partial elections throughout Mexico. Carranza will remain as supreme head of the constitutionalist army pending the re-establishment of peace it was said.
 Construction gangs have been mak- ing good progress repairing the rail way toward San Luis Potosi, and it is believed the constitutionalsts will get beyond the desert and attack that place before the lapse of a fortnight.
 It was believed that in event of success in the at tack on San Luis Potosi their forces wound experience little difficulty in rapidly forging scuthward, but it was pointed out by those familiar with strategic positions that the constitu- tionalists would first center every of fort toward taking Zacatecas and Aguas Calientes, before proceeding southward from San Luis Potosi for the presence cf the railway line con meeting Agua Calientes and San Luis Potosi might result in miscarriage of plans and give the federals an op- portunity to split their forces and at tack from both north and south. It was believed this possibility was re sponsible. for efforts being centered on the capture Of Zacatecas before proceeding south to Aguas Calientes.

 For some time we have been trying to get into communication with the constitutionalists.

With the approval of Wash ington we waived all formality and went to see them. We met Rafael Iubaran and Luis Cabrera, the au, thorized representatives of General Carranza.

 Justice Lamar and Mir. Lehman had gone to Buffalo not only in the hope of arranging some practical way for negotiating with the constitution alists while the mediation was in progress but of getting names of suit able men for provisional president as well as general information about the constitutionalist cause.
 The constitutionalists made clear first of all that the condition imposed by the mediators-the declaration of an armistice-was an impossible one for them to fill in advance of some definite agreement on a peace plar MT.
