GREAT DEMAND
FOR CANADIAN LAND
Americans Are Buyers and Be.
coming SettIers-Anxious to
Get Cheap and Produc-
tive Land.

Reports are to hand that there VIII
be n large influx Of settlers from the
United States into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring. For q time
there has been a falling of, on account
Of the fear Of CONSUMPTION, which OF
course was not possible, and which the
Canadian Government gave every as
surance would not be put into opera
ton. In any case 1t would not affect
tho American settler, and more than
that the man who was working ON tho
farm, helping to produce the grain
that goes to feed those who are at war,
would not be affected.
The excellent yields Of the Western
Canada crops, and the high prices Sc
cured is having it's influence on those
looking for homes. The authenticated
reports that have been sent out from
time to time that this farmer and that
farmer had paid for their entire farm
holdings out Of n crop has reached
the ears Of the man looking for q farm.
When he hears that g. ii. Beatty d
Nanton, Alberta, had $40 bushels d
wheat from IL acres or an average Of
68M bushels to the acre, he becomes
Interested. When he learns that Sid.
ney n. Phillips of Beddeford, Alberta.
threshed ten hundred and hfty-three
bushels Of wheat, the average being
b2M bushels per acre. his interest u
further aroused. Thos. Long Of Leth.
bridge had 12O bushels Of oats to the
acre from a field Of % acres, W,
Quinn Of Milk River had 6,O94 bushels
Of wheat from 100 acres, an average
of 60 bushels per acre, and Robert
Tackaberry Of Nobleford makes aflda-
Vt that he had IN average OF seventy
six bushels of wheat per acre from q
6eld Of 1858 acres. yhos. Boulton Of the
same place makes affidavit that from
atty acres he had q yield Of hfty-thre6
bushels of wheat per acre. Newell ].
Mobiles affidavit Of getting 81 bushels
per acre from 1000 acres stands cut
most strongly as evidence Of what tho
wheat grower al do. This afidavit 10
strengthened by a paragraph stating
that he had 122 bushels and 80 lbs. per
acre from 5000 acres. Mrs. Nancy
Coo makes affidavit that on her farm
at Noblcford she threshed six thou.
sand n hundred and ten bushels Of
wheat from one hundred and fifteen
acres, or flfty.three bushels and eight
lbs. per acre, and from a max neld
(stubble field) she got 20 bushels ana
8S pounds per acre.
It cannot be said that these were
freak yields because so many had such
great success. When these reports are
read, the man looking for q farm bo.
comes convinced.
These are only a few Of the reasons
that will cause a large influx Of Amer
lean farmers into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring.
The farmers now resident In Mani
toha, Saskatchewan and Alberta. are
purchasing additional lands. Prices
are low and Free homestead land can
be had in many districts and the home
steader is Observation-Disclosures.

Buys 10000 Sheep
To Sell to States
Farmers at Cost
Mayors Food Committee to
Bring Animals from
Western Ranges

Mayor Mitchel's Food Supply Com
mittee, through its chairman, George
W. Perkins. announced yesterday that
IL had purchased 10000 Western sheep,
which it would sell at cost to the farm
crs Of New York State. to reestabish
the sheep raising industry here.
The New York Central Railroad has
provided a large tract near Albany,
where the sheep will be herdei on their
arrival, abou, June 1. There the farm
ers may look the animals over and
make their choice.
The Central, MIR Perkins said, was
active in helping the committee IN its
investigation into the sheep situation
or the Western ranges. The cost Of
thcEe sheep to the farmers under the
plan of the Mayors committee would
Ue 50 low, Mr.. Perkins explained. that
the farmers would be glad to pay II.
This committee some time ago be-
San TO look into tho question Of sheep
Oh the Western ranges" said the com
mlttee's ST. tement. an 1879 there
were more than 100000 head Of sheep
grazing in New York State.
This number constantly decreased
until. in 1910. there were about 5OO,-
600. Last year there were only 4OO,-
coo. This decrease is appalling.
zone Of the principal reasons for II
is found in the large number of dogs
allowed to run loose all over the state.
They have killed sheep in such large
numbers that farmers have found II
Improbable TO raise sheep.
"A very strong effort has been made
20 have legislation on this subject
passed at Albany this session. A dog
bill has just passed the Senate which
would do a great deal toward correct
ing the evil This bill should pass the
Assembly and become law at once.
THE committee wishes TO impress on
every one acquainted with members OF
the Legislature the Importance OF pass
ing this dog bill, for if it is not passed
it will be impossible TO get the farm
ers to take up promptly and vigorously
the question Of restoring the sheep IN
dustry Of this state.
This matter is all the more impor-
tant at this time, because the Western
sheep ranges have been largely broken
up. and if we are to be able to furnish
wool for clothing, as well as mutton
for food. il is necessary to revive sheep
raising here in the East on large
scale"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-05-08

To win this war we must have four
things fighters, funds. factories and
food. Whoever is contributing to one
Of these four is doing his bit. Food lies
nearest home. Conserve it. Grow it,.
Make your garden yield 100 per cent by
getting 100 per cent value out of your
seed. Buy good seed from reputable
houses only. Buy only as much as you
actually need. Don't waste it.
The general rule for buying vcSe-
table seeds for the home garden is to
calculate on the basis Of a fifty-foot
row. BY this time you should have al
ready started the early crops. Check
back and see if you have wasted your
seed. For ffty-foot row of each of
the following vegetables you should
have bought beets. one ounce; cabbage.
one-quarter ounce; cauifower. one
quarter ounce; lettuce, one-quarter
ounce; onions, one-half ounce; pars-
nips, one-quarter ounce; peas. one pint;
potatoes, one-half peck; radishcs. one
half pound; turnips, one-quarter ounce.
For late and tender crops. which should
be sown about the end Of this month,
get beans, one pint; lima beans, one
pint; pole beans one-quarter pint; late
cabbage, one-quarter ounce; corn, one
half pint; cucumbers, one-quarter
ounce; melons. one-quarter ounce;
pumpkins. One-quarter ounce, and
squash. one-quarter ounce.
Every gardener should have the fol-
