Americans Are Buyers and Be-
coming SettlerS-Anxious to
Get Cheap and Produc-
tive Land.

Reports are TO hand that there will
United States into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring. For a time
there has been 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 ii would not affect
the American settler, and more than
that the man who was working on the
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 its 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 one crop has reached
the ears o. the man looking for farm.
When he hears that G. III. Beatty OF
Nanton, Alberta. had go bushels OF
wheat from u acres or ON average or
56Ia bushels to the acre. he becomes
interested. When he learns that Sid
ney f. Phillips of Beddeford. Alberta.
threshed ten hundred and fifty-three
bushels of wheat. the average being
52ia bushels per acre. his interest is
further aroused. Thos. Long OF Leth-
bridge had 100 bushels OF oats TO the
mere from field OF % acres, w.
Quinn of Milk River had 6.094 bushels
of wheat from 100 acres. an average
Of 60 bushels per acre. and Robert
Tackaberry of Nobleford makes aftida-
Wit that he had an average of seventy
six bushels OF wheat per acre from
field of 1903 acres. Thos. Boulton OF the
same place makes affidavit that from
fifty acres he had yield of fifty-three
bushels OF wheat per acre. Newell j.
Mobiles affidavit OF getting "a bushels
per acre from 1000 acres stands out
most strongly as evidence OF what the
wheat grower can do. This affidavit Is
strengthened by paragraph stating
that he had 122 bushels and 30 lbs. per
acre from 3o4.G9 acres. Mrs. Nancy
Coe makes affidavit TINT on her farm
Mt Nobleford she threshed six thou
sand one hundred and ten bushels OF
wheat from one hundred and fifteen
acres. or flfty.thrce bushels and eight
lbs. per acre. and from n fax field
tstubble field she got 20 bushels and
% pounds per acre.
II cannot be snld that these wero
freak yields because so many had such
grent success. When these reports arc
read. the man looking for n farm be-
comes convinced.
These are only few Of the reasons
TINT will cause a large influx OF Amer
lean farmers into the Canadlan West
during the coming Spring.
