OPPORTUNITIES
THAT ARE MISSED
Why Wait? Why Not Go to West
ern Canada Now?

The writer has frequently heard the
remark that "after the war we will go
to Western Canada" It does not Oc-
cur to those making the remark that if
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 az
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 cul-
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:
I'm the spring of 1916 a 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 % bushels per acre. 1920 bushels
all told, grading No. 1, was obtained.
The price the day the grain was sold
(Which was very early in the season,
before grain prices advanced to round
about 5000 was $1.60, which brought
the handsome total of Sc, 10000. Three
hundred and twenty acres at $17.O0
equals $4,000. SO that a buyer. by

of $1,280.00." = 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 we'll as make a
handsome profit, is the information
given by n. B. Davis, the manager.
The wheat yield was over %, 600 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

oscar Castalor, who bought land at
Blusson after the crop had been put
in last spring, for $3,SOO.OO, has
threshed $500 bushels of wheat. which
is worth at present prices about
$4,000. He refused an offer of
$5,000.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.
Stoop Creek, Sask.-James McRae
has threshed 5,400 bushels of grain,
1000 bushels of which were wheat,
grading No. 1 Northern. One field
averaged A bushels per acre, and a
large field of oats averaged SO bushels.
