r,. . k v I w m INTEPXSTINQ TO AMERICANS. Vectern Carada Will Soon Becomo the Supply Depot for Wheat for Great Britain. During the part j ?ar about 60.000 Americana went from the United States to Cnnadn. Most of those set tled upon farm lands, and the writer Is Informed by agents of the Cana dian Government that the greatest success has followed the efforts of nearly all. To their friends on this side of the boundary line the fullest assurance is given of the prosperity that Is In store Tor them. There will ilways bo a splendid market for all tho grain, catUe, and other produce that can be raised In Western Can ada, and with the advantages offered of a free homestead of ICO acres of land, and other lands which may be bought cheaply, an excellent climate, splendid school system, educational advantages of the best, what moro is required. Tho husbandman gets moro return for his money than In any other country In the world.

When it Is borne in mind lliat 80 per osnt of tho lireadstuffs of this great country has to be brought from abroad, you will readily appreciate with what eoat satisfaction we view the large antl steadily increasing sup plies of grain which are annually aall "able for export from Csmada, and t challenge contradiction m'hen I say 'that of rthe wheats we import "from Russia, India, tilie Pacific, and the Ucngth and breadth of 'the Unitall States, nosio gives more general satisfaction, name Is more generally appreciated than that raised in Uhe Province of Mani toba. Wo cunnot get unough of it, and it is mo exaggeration to say that jthero are -before us dozens of mlllere who hunger for It. This is not th 4lmo to renter into statistical ques tions, but wo look forward with coi fidence to1 the time at tfnleh, with th) present rate of progress,! the Dominion of Canadr. will have -sufficient sur plus of wheat to render this country independent of other fcr.irces of sup ply. I think I may, with justifiable pride, remind you that this Is tho chldf grain market of the Ehitlsh Empire, .and through Its excellent geographical position, as well as thrarigh tho enter prise of Its millers, it lc now the sec ond milling center In tfea world.
