HUDSON BAY CO.
ONLY A MEMORY
Of EARLY DAYS


WINNIPEG. Man, Nov. 2S.-The
Hudson Boy company has altered its
policies with the rapid advance Of
civilization that has curtailed the
production of furs in its territory
and has before one of the great
merchandising corporations of Can
ada With two centuries and half
behind it, the company just now is
closing out to farm settlers the land
that represents the last vestige OF
its former empire,
The company is still one Of the
worlds greatest fur traders. It has
l42 fur posts and still sends to Eng
land annually millions OF dollars
worth Of raw furs But with the
wonderful growth Of its business as
4 general merchant, it no longer
has need Of land
Under the charter granted by King
Charles II in 1870 the Hudson Bay
company became virtually sole own
ar and ruler OF three-tourths OF
North America Its territories ex-
tended from the Great Lakes to the
Pacific and from the Arctic ocean
far south across the present Ameri-
can boundary line to the Spanish
settlements In California.
When it surrendered its authority
over this vast rerion 10 Canada It
received as an indemnify s. 30 100
and retained one-twentieth of all the
land in the fertile belt between Lake
Winnipeg, Lake of the Woods, the
waters connecting them and the
Rocky mountains and between the
North Saskatchewan river and the
international boundary.
The land amounted to 5000 900
acres at the end of October and
has been untouched by the plow in
the midst Of the richest sections OF
western Canada. Farmers OF dis
tricts that hem 1t in have long cast
covetous eyes upon It. In a few
wears it is expected 1t will be dotted
with the farms of settlers, and grair
fields will wave over the last rem
nants Of the Hudson Bay company
1rcient empire.
