Canada Offers
I6O Acres Land
Free to Farm Hands
Bonus of Western Canada Land to
Men Who Assist i'm Maintain
ing Needed Grain Pro-
duction

The demand for farm labor in
Canada is so great that as an in
ducement to secure at once the nee
essary help required, Canada will
give one hundred and sixty acres Of
land free as homestead and allow
the farm laborer, who files on land,
apply the time he is working for 9TH
err farmers as residence duties the
same as if he had lived on the land
he had applied for. This offer made
only to men working on Canadian
farms for at least 6 months during
1917, thus reducing the necessity
of actual residence to years instead
Of 3 years, as under usual conditions.
This appeal for farm help is in no
way connected with enlistment for
military service but solely to secure
farm laborers to increase agricultur-
al output. A wonderful opportuni-
ty to earn good wages while secur-
ing a farm. Canadian Government
Will pay all fare over one cent per
mile from st. Paul and Duluth to
Canadian destination Information
as to low railway rates, etc., may be
had on application to

NO ASSESSMENT
WORK NECESSARY
ON IDAHO CLAIMS

Ravenal Macbeth. secretary of
the Idaho Mining association, has
received a telegram from Con-
gressman Smith stating!
The president has just signed
the bill eXempting mining claims
from assessment work during the
current year and in 1915"
This exemption, 1T is stated by
Secretary Macbeth. applies to all
mining claims. whether owned by
men in the army or not.
The Idaho Mining association
has been working on this matter
for some time and hoped to get a
decision earlier.
The exemption will save mining
men of Idaho many thousands of
dollars next year. Many have al
ready completed their assessment
work for 1917 although some wait
ed the final action of the president
and will be relieved of the expense
for the current year.
