"Where Once the Buffalo Roamed" Is Now
Formed Into Provinces *
Xot long since a great American
writer , in an article on the "Wheat
supply of Europe and America , " made
the statement that to the north of the
International boundary line there was
only a narrow fringe of land capable
of producing wheat. Another writer ,
replying to this , said that wheat could
be successfully grown at Fort Simp
son , a Hudson Bay Company's post at
the junction of the Llard and Macken
zie rivers. Fort Simpson is at lati
tude 62 degrees north , and is as far
northwest of Winnipeg as that city is
northwest of New York city. It is
possible not only to raise wheat at
Fort Simpson , and of a better quality
than is grown in any other country ,
but at a point miles further north rye
and oats are grown , whilst two hun
dred miles still further north barley
and potatoes arc successfully pro
duced. Nor is this very extraordinary ,
as will appear "further on in this ar
ticle.
The attention , that is being directed
sibllities it presents to the poor man ,
the man of moderate means and the
capitalist , will therefore be in order.
To properly appreciate the enor
mous extent of this territory , four
hundred miles north and south and
nine hundred miles east and west and
embracing a narca of 360,000 square
miles , let us state that if we draw a
line from the northern boundary of
Pennsylvania to the southern line of
West Virginia , passing through Har
per's Ferry , and take all the west of
that line to the Missouri river , em
bracing , as well as parts of the states
named , all of West Virginia , Ohio , In
diana , Kentucky , Illinois , Missouri and
Iowa , we shall have American territory
equal in extent and area , but in no
wise superior , to the portion of west
ern Canada under consideration. In
short , there are in Canada two hundred
and seventy nine thousand square miles
of land for the plow not surpassed in
fertility by any area of similar size on
the face of the globe , and it is nearly

A WESTERN CANADA WHEAT FARM.
towards Western Canada at the present
time and the large number who are
going there for the purpose of making
it their home , has been the cause of
an interview with Mr. James A. Smart ,
the deputy minister of the interior
for Canada. He is a gentleman thor
oughly posted and ready at all times
to impart information concerning
Canada's resources. Mr. F. Pedley , also
of Ottawa , Canada , is the superintend
ent of the immigration branch , which
is almost a department by itself. The
result of the interview with Mr. Smart
is practically embodied in the accom
panying article.
The extent of Canada is enormous.
The distance through Canada from the
Atlantic to the Pacific is 3,000 miles.
Its area , all told , is 3.45G..383 square
miles. Of this it is safe to say , there
is less waste land than In any other
country in the world. It is not our
purpose to say much if anything about
the older provinces of Canada , as they
are mostly fairly well settled. Western
Canada comprises the province of
Manitoba , 74,000 square miles ; Brit
ish Columbia , 380,000 square miles ;
Assiniboia , 90,000 square miles ; Sas-
ketchewan , 106,000 square miles ; Al
berta , 106,000 square miles ; Athabaska ,
104,000 square miles , to say nothing of
Keewatin with about 300,000 square
miles , and the unorganized territories
of the northwest with over 900,000
square miles. As a grand total the
area of Canada in square miles is 3-
456,383. Assiniboia , Saskatchewan ,
Alberta and Athabaska alone consti
tute a region larger than all Russia in
Europe. Time was when it was to
the interest of the great fur dealing
companies of the continent to send the
impression abroad that this vast re
gion was fit only for the habitation of
the beaver , the buffalo and the bear ,
Tjut it has been demonstrated and is
now generally understood that these
vast plains contain the finest wheat
and grazing lands in the world. This
applies not only to the comparatively
well-known province of Manitoba and
the districts of Assiniboia and Alberta ,
but to the entire region lying four
all embraced within the limits herein
described as western Canada.
A few words as to the climate of this
great country may not be out of place
right here. The climate of western
Canada , as described by those who
have lived there for some years , is very
agreeable , and much preferable to that
of the east. Disease is little known ;
epidemics unheard of. Winter extends
full three months , usually. There is
little change during winter. Frosts are
keen , but , the air being dry , a tempera
ture of 20 degrees below zero there is
more bearable than 10 degrees above
in the damp and changeable climates
of the east. Spring sets in about the
first of April. Some seasons , however ,
seeding is begun early in March , the
snow having entirely disappeared.
Spring is quickly followed by summer ,
whose long days and cool nights have
a very beneficent influence upon vege
tation. The growth is more rapid than
anywhere known in lower latitudes.
The soft maple has been known to
grow more than five feet high in a
single season. Autumn is delightful.
It extends into the middle of Novem
ber. Snow sometimes does not fall un
til late in December. This gives the
farmer the opportunity of finishing
his threshing , marketing his thousands
of bushels of No. 1 hard wheat , and yet
leaving him sufficient time to put his
land in crop for the following year.
The wheat of western Canada is known
to be extremely hard. The yield is al
so from 30 to 50 per cent more than
In the states south of the boundary
line. There are natural causes for
this. The further you travel towards
the northern limits of its growth the
better the quality of the soil. The rea
son that It is bettor is because the sub
soil , throughout the heat of the sum
mer , is kept moist at all times by the
slow melting of the deep winter frosts ,
the moisture thus maintained ascend
ing to the surface and nourishing the
roots of the grain. This stimulates
the growth , keeps the plant always
fresh and produces a bountiful crop.
Again , just when needed , when the
heads are ripening , sunshine is longer.

adian Pacific Railway. To the west
of this vast territory lies British Co
lumbia with its innumerable rivers ,
rich in fish , its gold , silver and copper
mines and its fertile valleys capable
of producing the choicest fruits in
great abundance. It is to that portion
of western Canada lying between
Lake Superior on the east and the

Heat and sunlight are both needed tc
bring wheat to maturity. The great
er the amount of both the better the
result. From the 15th of June to the
1st of July there are nearly twc
hours more daylight in every twenty-
four in western Canada than in the
svate of Ohio.
A. great deal ca.n be said as to the
agricultural possibilities of this vast
region. Lord Selkirk , at one time ,
prophesied that these plains and val
leys would one day maintain a popu
lation of thirty million souls. And
why should they not ? Manitoba alons
last year had nearly two million acres
under crop wheat , oats , barley , flax ,
and other grains and potatoes and
other roots. Between sixteen and sev
enteen bushels of wheat were market
ed. Ninety-five per cent of the prairie
is good wheat laurl.
The average yield of wheat varies
under different conditions. In some
years the average has been over thirty
bushels. Once or twice it went as low
as eighteen bushels. At even the low
est average , with good prices there
are few industries that will give bet
ter profits. A late United States con
sul , in one of his reports of harvest
time , states that the entire labor of
the region was found to be totally in
adequate for the task before it. The
wheat straw was so tall and stout and
so heavily laden with grain that the
work of reaping and sacking was ex
tremely exhausting. The strength of
the growing grain frequently broke the
reaping machines , and the utmost ex
ertion of strong men was required to
handle the great weight of the sheaves.
But while wheat is king in that re
gion it is by no means the only cereal
grown. The oat , barley and pea crops
are phenomenal. Oats yield all the
way from CO to 90 bushels per acre.
In some cases they have been known to
exceed over one hundred. A delegate
who visited the country reports , "One
hundred bushels of oats , and sixty
bushels of barley per acre were com
mon crops. In one case the oats stood
feet six inches high , the heads were
five feet six inches long , and each chaff
twelve inches long , and each chaff
case contained , not one but three per
fect kernels. "
Barley , as stated , yields enormous
ly. It is sought after by brewers ev
erywhere and it brings several cents
per bushel more than that grown in
other countries. Peas yield splendidly.
They are extremely free from bugs
and grubs. Used in fattening hogs and
for other feed , they are superior in ev
ery way to corn. The absence of hog
cholera in this country is attributed
by experts to the excellent 'feed , corn
not being used. Corn can , however , be
grown , but wheat pays so much bet
ter that but little attention is given to
corn.
In roots and vegetables , it is esti
mated by all who have any knowledge
of the matter in these products , this
region has no competitor. Ripe toma
toes may be seen in profusion in the
middle of September. They have been
known to ripen as early as the 1st of
July. Displays of roots , vegetables ,
garden products are made at the agri
cultural fairs that for size and quality
cannot be equaled at any of the fairs
In the United States. An Ohio gentle
man visiting one of these fairs said he
had never seen anything in Ohio to equal
it. Three cabbages together weighed
one hundred and twenty pounds.
These were as solid and fine grained as
though they had weighed but six
pounds apiece. Prize potatoes , he said
weighed four pounds each ; those
weighing three were so plentiful that
they attracted little attention.
Beets , carrots , turnips , etc. , also
The export trade in hogs Is constant
ly on the increase. They come next
to cattle in point of importance to the
farmer.
Poultry Is also very profitable , but up
to the present time the local demand
has absorbed the supply.
The educational facilities of the
country are equal to any on the con
tinent. Rural schools are about three
miles apart in the settled districts , and
they are free. The government makes
an annual grant to each school. This
covers all expenses , including the sala
ries of the teachers , who are properlv
certificated. One eighteenth part of
the whole of the "Fertile Belt" from
Pembina to the Saskatchewan and be
yond is set apart for the maintenance
of schools. This is a most generous e -
dowment. In 1871 the school popula
tion of Manitoba was 817. It is now
over 50,000. In 1883 the average at
tendance was 5,000 ; it has now increas
ed to about 2-1,000. In 1883 there were
246 teachers ; now there are over 1,100
These schools are well inspected at in
tervals by competent educationalists.
The average salary of the rural teach
ers is $3GS per year. The schools are
non-sectarian and in no character na
tional.
In connection with educational gov
ernment , experimental farms have
been established in Manitoba and the
territories. All the different kinds of
grain , seeds , roots , vegetables , etc. ,
that it is sought to grow in the prov
ince , are sown on the varied soils
that are found on these farms. The
results are carefully noted and pub
lished for the information and guid
ance of the farming community in the
different newspapers of the country.
The government also sends around to
the towns and villages a traveling
school of dairy instructors who give
lectures , accompanied by practical op
erations by competent men , in all the
arts of cattle raising , butter and cheeao
making , etc. , that all may learn the
best methods known without the loss
of time and money to the settlers.
Farmers' institutes have also been es
tablished. These , affording practical
farmers the opportunity of interchang
ing experiences , are of great assistance
to the agricultural community.
Railways now traverse all the set
tled parts of western Canada. Very
few farmers are more than a dozen
miles from a market or railway. Rail
way stations , with post offices , and ele
vators for the storage of-grain occur
at intervals of about seven or eight
miles.
The only remaining territory on this
continent in which ranching on a large
scale can be gone into is to be found
in western Canada. The District of
Alberta , immediately east of British
Columbia , is pre-eminently fitted for
ranching. Its area is 400,000 square
miles , and it extends from north to
south 430 miles , and from east to west
250 miles. The opportunities offered
here in this respect are unparalleled
by any other country in the world. The
country is open , rolling and well wa-

grow to an exceptionally large size.
Watermelons have been known tc
weigh as much as seventy-five pounds ,
citrons twenty-five pounds.
Experimental tests of different va
rieties of grains and roots have beer
made for the purpose of gaining information
mation as to their productiveness and
usefulness. The results of these tests
for three consecutive years are given
below :
In oats , of twelve varieties tested , the
average yield at the Manitoba Experi
mental farm was 75 bu. , 20 Ibs. , per
acre ; at the Northwest Territory's
farm the average was 85 bu. , 23 Ibs.
per acre.
In two-rowed barley , of six varie
ties , the average yield at the Manitoba
farm was 42 bu. , 31 Ibs. , per acre ; at
the northwest Territory's farm 56 bu. ,
26 Ibs. per acre.
In six -rowed barley , six varieties ,
the average Manitoba farm yield was
51 bu. , 1 lb. per acre ; at the North
west Territory's farm GO bu. , 6 Ibs. , per
acre.
In spring wheat twelve varieties , the
average yield at the Manitoba farm
was 35 bu. , 28 Ibs. , per acre ; at the
Northwest Territory's farm 41 bu. ,
41 Ibs. , per acre.
In potatoes , twelve varieties , the av
erage at the Manitoba farm was 343
bu. , 50 Ibs. , per acre ; at the North
west Territory's farm 300 bu. , 15 Ibs. ,
per acre.
Wild fruits , strawberries , raspber
ries , currants , gooseberries , grapes ,
i plums , cherries , and cranberries grow
in great abundance.
Dairying in all parts of western Can
ada is a specially important industry ,
and has made great strides during re
cent years. The butter which has
found its way to the east and the
English markets was found to be of
excellent quality and in some cases su
perior to its competitors.
Mixed farming pays well through
out the region. Horses and cattle
thrive well on the prairies. Almost all
classes of high bred cattle are to be
seen. Beef export is very large , but it
is now expected that the mining dis
trict of British Columbia and the
Yukon will create a splendid home
market. The quality of the beef is the
richest , and the cost of production is
reduced to a minimum the profits are
very large. Frequently an animal will
bring from $30 to $50 , which did not
cost the farmer or rancher more than
a few dollars. This is most especially
the case in the great ranching district
of Alberta , where the herds roam the
ranges throughout the year.
The country is peculiarly adapted to
sheep raising , and it is found very re
munerative.
tered. The valley and beach lands pro
duce a most luxurious and nutritious
growth of native grass. Cattle , horses
and sheep graze outside the whole year.
The snowfall is light , and it is melted
almost as it falls by the warm Chinook
winds which blow from the Pacific
ocean. Profits are large. Steers cost
ing the owners but a few dollars each
bring from $35 to $45 on the ranges.
Heretofore the cattle have been ex
ported , but with the opening of the
British Columbia Yukon mining re
gions , there is a large and constantly
growing market right at home.
The northern part of Alebrta , in ad
dition to being a ranching country , has
large deposits of minerals. It is also
heavily wooded as well as well watered.
In all Canada laws are enforced with
the strictest impartiality. There is no
such a thing known in Canada as mob
law and lynching , not even in its most
remote districts. The peace lover and
the law breaker both know that the
laws of the land will be enforced , and
they govern themselves accordingly.
It is not alone in agriculture or
stock raising that Canada offers unequaled -
equaled opportunities to the young or
middle aged man. Its fisheries are
the richest in the world. Its number
less rivers and lakes , as well as its sea
line , teem with fish of all kinds. Brit
ish Columbia salmon is famed the
world over.
British Columbia has enormous for-
ets of timber. This province is one of
the finest fruit growing regions in the
world , while in its valleys there are
large areas of agricultural lands open
for settlement.
In mining Canada promises to equal ,
if not eclipse.any other country. Brit
ish Columbia mines have made for the
province a reputation that any country
might be proud of. In fact , the entire
region from the boundary line north to
the arctic circle , and from the eastern
slope of the Rocky mountains to the
Pacific ocean , appears to be an inex
haustible deposit of minerals of all
kinds. The Klondike region , almost
wholly in western Canada , is known
throughout the whole civilized world
today. Throe years ago it was quite
unknown. The output this year is ex
pected to reach the magnificent sum of
twenty million dollars iu gold. Com
petent authorities believe that the out
put will be doubled each recurring
year , for years to come.
There is no other country offering
the great opportunities for either the
poor man , the moderately rich man , or
the capitalist as western Canada af
fords. Millions of acres are ready for
the plovr. Snme of it free , and the rest
of it at a very lav/ price per acre.
A company of wandering comedians
have been acting at Przemysl a play
entitled , "Captain Dreyfus. " The pub
lic followed with such interest the
action of the drama that several of
the spectators waited for "Henry" and
"Esterhazy" as they left the theatre ,
and cudgeled the two miscreants. The
two artists who had sustained the
parts of the Uhlan and the forger
were conducted back to their lodging
in a pitiable state by the police. And
now who will give them compensa
tion ?
