IN NORTHERN ALBERTA
(By United Press.)


Edmonton, Alta, Oct. 19.-More
money has been loaned to soldier set
tiers in northern Alberta than in any
other part Of Canada. Albertans
point to this fact as tribute to the
attractions of the soil and climate of
the province. Through the Edmon-
ton office which covers the northern
half of the province, loans to soldier
settlers have been approved to the
extent of $14,OOO,OOO and of this
amount nearly $10,O00,000 has been
disbursed. About 5000 soldiers have
been actually located on farms with
an equal number settled on home
stead lands for which no loans are
necessary.
Most of the soldier settlers are
making good, according to the soldier
settlement board, and are sharing in
the profits of the bumper harvest.
