4 KLOHD|KE TO THE
REAL FARMER
A Western Canada Crop Estimat-
ed at $4,000, Makes
$4,000.

Messrs. Harris, formerly of Audu-
bon, Iowa, wrote the Audubon Advo-
cate" expressing their satisfaction of
things in Western Canada. They To-
Gated at Makepeace, Alberta. They
say there are those who make good,
and those who fail. The former are
those that land agents refer to when
advertising their land. But" contin-
ues the letter, "a great many of the
farmers in this vicinity pay for their
land with their first crop. A man
near here bought a section of land in
the year 1915 for 500 per acre. He
broke 800 acres of the land during the
summer of 1915. In the fall of 1916
he threshed 10000 bushels Of wheat,
which paid for his land, all expenses
and had balance of $4,000. In the
fall of 1917 he threshed nearly as
much off the other half of the section.
At the present time he would not take
$50 per acre for his land.
ave have had five crops in Alberta.
The two dry years 1914-1917) our
wheat made 20 and 80 bushels to the
acre respectively. In 1916 we raised
so bushels of wheat to the acre on
summer fallow. The best results are
obtained by blowing or breaking in
the summer, working it down in the
fall so that it will retain the moisture.
Thus farming one-half your ground
each year.
persons owning land here and still
living in the States should, if they
don't feel themselves able to come up
here and finance themselves until they
could get their first crop, get some of
their land broken and worked down
in the fall before they come. The
next spring they could come and put
in the crop, fence and put up their
buildings. This way they have to
wait only one summer for their first
crop.
cit is not advisable for a person to
come here in the spring, break out
because the moisture is not in the
ground and a failure is almost GER
tain unless it is an exceptionally wet
year.
Zone of the boys from that locality,
Mr.. Peder NJ. Jensen came to Alberta
last spring. He bought a 5000 Rum
ely Oil-Pull engine on the Sth day of
June, 1917. After that date he broke
LOO acres of prairie sod for which
he received an average Of $500 per
acre.
"Mr. Hansen from your community,
was up here last fall with several
prospective land buyers from that
neighborhood. At that time he in
quired the value of the crop on the
section we were farming. We told
him that it would probably make in
the neighborhood of $4,000. This
same crop when sold brought nearly
$4,000. The most of it being sold
