Recent tree from Canada, our next door ighbour, the neighbourly oo country across the boundary line, are that upwards of ninety thousand settlers from the United States went into Western Canada during the past year, most of them for the purpose of taking up and settling upon the va- cant lands, 160 acres of which are given free by the government, and lands adjoining held by railway and land companies are selling at from nine to fifteen and twenty dollars per acre. Even if thirty and forty dollars per acre were paid, the price would be low, as the lands produce wonderfully, and at these higher figures there is a large interest on the money and labor invested. The ninety thousand tat- tlers of last year, followed about sixty thousand of the previous year, and for several years the number has been running into these large figures. There must be a reason for it. It may be found in the single phrase, \they are satisfied.\ Nothing attracts people more than the success of others, and the news of this reaching other thou- -Mamie. causes them to tarestigeM.

With the ever increasing demand for grain, there comes the ever increasing de - mend for land. Canada is the only country on the continent in a position to supply it. Land there that costa, say fifteen dollars an acre, produces on a reasonable calculation, 25 burhels of wheat to the acre, or about $20.00. The most liberal calculation as to cost makes the cost to produce $7.60 per acre, leaving a balance of $12.50 per acre. The $7.50 carries good wages for the farmer, and all other conceiv- able contingencies. With conditions like this, covering the entire area of about 500,000 square miles, It is read- ily understood why 90,000 Americans should follow the sixty thousand of the preilous Canadian _Wan§ -- meat Agencies at different points in the Union are always ready to give in- formation regarding the free home- stead lands, ready to advise the set- tler as to the districts which would suit him best.
