During the prevalence Of the foot
And.mouth disease In some portions OF
the United States. an embargo was
placed upon interstate shipments.
This also had an effect upon ship
ments to Canada. and necessarily an
embargo was placed upon them max
ing it almost impossible for upwards
Of . year to ship cattle into Canada
from the United States. This was es'
pecially hard on the settler. As q re-
suit. Western Canada lost a number or
settlers. they being unable to take
their Mve stock with them. Canada Is
practically free from horse and cattle
diseases, and the wish Of the authori'
ties is to keep 1t so.
Recently. though. an order has been
issued by the Department Of Agricul'
ture. removing the embargo. and set
tiers are now free to take In the num-
Der of head of horses or cattle that are
permitted by the Customs authorities
and the freight regulations. This Will
be welcome news to those whose IN
teution It is to move to Canada. taking
with them stock that they have had IN
their possession for six months. ana
which it 10 the intention to use on land

of Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta.
There are thousands Of splendid

to the settler. What these lands Will

be more strongly emphasized than IN
reading the reports Of the crops

West in 1916. Yields Of SO. 60. and as
high as 20 bushels Of wheat to the
