Why Wait? Why Not Go to West
ern Canada Now?


remark that after the war we will go
to Western Canada" 1t does not &C.
cur to those making the remark that IL
they wish to secure lands in Western
Canada, whether by homestead or pur-
chase, the best time to go is now. After
the war the welcome will be just as
hearty as ever, but the chances are
that land values will increase and to-
day homesteads are plentiful and land
is reasonable in price. There is no
question about what the land in Mani
tOba, Saskatchewan and Alberta will
do, what it will give under proper Gull
tivation.
Farmers in Western Canada are pay
ing for their land holdings with the
proceeds of last years crop. That this
is no idle statement may be Cleaned
from the three following items, which
are picked out at random:
''In the spring of 1916 half-section
of land was offered for sale at $500
per acre. There were 105 acres of
summer-fallow, which because the
owner could not at the time find a
buyer, were seeded to wheat. A yield
of 40 bushels per acre. 1920 bushels
all told, grading No. l, was obtained.
The price the day the grain was sold
(Which was very early in the season.
before grain prices advanced to round
about $1,000 was SLIGO, which brought
the handsome total of $6,720.00. Three
hundred and twenty acres at S17OO
equals $5,440.00, so that buyer, by
placing less than half of the whole
under crop, would have made a profit
of $1,2S0.00." - Robson Messenger,
Robson. SaSk.
THAT the Indiana Boys farm this
year raised sufficient crop to pay for
the land, all the machinery and all
overhead expenses as well as make
handsome profit, is the information
given by n. B. Davis, the manager.
The wheat yield was over $4,000 bush
els. OF twelve cars already sold, nine
graded No. 1, and Mr.. Davis has sold
over 1000 bushels locally for seed at
$500. Naturally, when he gets to In
diana he will be big booster for AL
berta. "-Bassano Mail, BassanO, Alta.
oscar Castalor, who bought land at
Blusson after the crop had been put
in last spring, for $3,S00.CO, has
threshed $500 bushels of wheat, which
is worth at present prices about
81, 10000. He refused an offer of
S5,0OO.OO for the land after the crop
had been taken off."-Lethbridge Her.
aid. Lethbridge, Alta.
Reports from the wheat fields are
highly encouraging and show that the
wheat crop of many farmers in West
ern Canada was highly satisfactory.
Coblenz, Sask.-W. A. Rose has
threshed an average of 33 bushels per
acre and SO bushels of oats.
Gleichen, Alberta.-Up to date 237,-
S12 bushels of grain have been received
by local elevators, of which nearly
10000 bushels were wheat. Seventy
one cars of grain have already been
shipped.

has threshed 5,4O0 bushels of grain.
1000 bushels of which were wheat,
grading No. l Northern. One field
averaged A bushels per acre, and

"The execution of such a series Of
crimes perpetrated without any regard
for universal reprobation fully explains
TO President Wilson the protest of the
allies.
president Wilson desires more !:
He desires that the belligerent pow
ers openly affirm the objects which
they seek by continuing the war; the
allies experience no difficulty in reply
ing to this request.
Their objects in the war are well
known; they have been formulated on
many occasions by the chiefs of their
divers governments. Their objects in
the war will not be made known in
detail, with all the equitable compen-
SatiOns and indemnities for damage
suffered, until the hour of negotia-
tons.
Their Terms Stated.
But the civilized world knows that
they imply in all necessity and in the
first instance the restoration of Bel
GUM, of Serbia, and of Montenegro
and the indemnities which are due
them; the evacuation of the invaded
territories of France, of Russia, and
of Roumania, with just PREPARATION;
the reorganization of Europe guaran-
teed by a stable regime and founded
as much upon respect of nationalities
and full security and liberty of eco
nomic development which all nations,
great or small, possess, as upon ter
ritorial conventions and international
agreements suitable to guarantee ter
ritorial and maritime frontiers against
unjustified attacks; the restitution of
provinces or territories wrested in the
past from the allies by force or against
the will of their populations; the lib

apparent Omission) to western civili-
zation.
1.-THE intentions of his majesty the
emperor Of Russia regarding Poland
have been clearly indicated in the
proclamation which he has just ad-
dressed to his armies.
1T goes without saying that if the
allies wish to liberate Europe from
the brutal covetOusness of Prussian
militarism it never has been their de-
sign, as has been alleged, to encOm-
pass the determination of the German
peoples and their political disappear
ance.
"That which they desire above all
is to insure peace upon the princl-
pies of liberty and justice, upon the
inviolable fidelity to international OBJ
legations with which the government of
the United States has never ceased to
be inspired.
Omitted in the pursuits of this SUI
preme object, the allies are deter
mined, individually and collectively, to
act with all their power and to con-
sent to all sacrifices to bring to vic
torious close a conflict upon which
they are convinced not only safety and
prosperity depends but also the future
civilization itself. "SHARP.
