ONE OF OUR NEIGHBORS,! “Where Once the Buffalo Roamed” Is Now Formed Into Provinces* Not long since a great American writer, in an article on the ‘‘Wheat supply of Iiurope 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 thp Liard and Macken zie rivers. Fort Simpson Is nt lati tude 02 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 are successfully pro duced. Nor Is this very extraordinary, as will appear further on In this ar ticle. The attention that Is being directed V 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 itstdf. 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 3.456,,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; Ilrlt lsh Columbia, 380,000 square miles; Assinibola, 90,000 square miles; Sas ketehewan, 106,000 square miles; Al berta, 106,000 square miles; Athabaska, 104,000 square miles, to say nothing of Keewatln 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. Assinibola, 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 van fit only for the habitation of the beaver, the buffalo and the bear, but 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 Assinibola and Alberta, but /°"r I AFTER THREE YEARS* RTS!

To properly appreciate the enor mous extent of this territory, four hundred miles north and soutli and nine hundred miies cast and west and embracing a narea of 360,000 square miles, let us state that If we draw a line from the northern boundary of Pennsylvania to tbe southern line of West Virginia, passing through Har per’s Ferry, und take all the west of that line to the Missouri river, em bracing, as well as parts of the slates 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 si/.o on the face of the globe, and it is nearly 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 i3 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 better is localise 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 prod urea a bountiful crop. Again, just when needed, when the heads are ripening, sunshine Is longer. !(• at .uni tonllght am both needed to bring wheat tu maturity. The great er the amount of U>' h the bat er th<* 'erult.

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 cropa 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 busnels 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 f< ct 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 rtnd grubs. Used in fattening hogs and for other feed, they are superior in ev ery way to corn, 'the absence of hog cholera in tills country Is attributed by experts to the excellent feed, corn not being used, Corn ran, 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 Ik* 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 he 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 inOhloto equal it. Three cabbages together weighed one hundred and twenty pounds. These were us 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 Brow to an exceptionally large size. Watermelons have been known to weigh as much as seventy-five pounds, citrons twenty-five pounds. Experimental tests of different va rieties of grains and roots have been made for the purpose of gaining infor 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 lbs., per acre; at the Northwest Territory’s farm the average was 85 bu., 23 lbs. per acre. In two-rowed barley, of six varie ties, the average yield at the Manitoba farm was 42 bu., 31 lbs., per acre; at the northwest Territory's farm 56 bu.. 26 lbs. j>er acre. lu six -rowed barley, six varieties, the average Manitoba farm yield was 51 bu., 1 lb. per ucre; at the North west Territory's farm 60 bu., 6 lbs., par acre. In spring wheat twelve varieties, th* average yield at the Manitoba farm was 35 bu., 28 lies., p**r aero, at the Northwest Territory's farm 41 bu., | 41 lbs., per ucre.

They come next to cattle in point of importance to tbe 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, nnd they are free. The government makes an annual grant to each school. This covers all expenses, including the sala ries ^f tb§ teachers, who are properly 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 must generous en dowment. In 1871 the school popula tion of Manitoba was 817. ft is now pver 50,000. In 1883 the average at tendance was 5,000; It has now Increas ed to about 21,000. In 1883 there were 240 teachers; now there are over 1,100. These schools are w ell Inspected at In tervals by competent educationalists. The average salary of the rural teach ers Is $308 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 tho varied soils that are found on these farms. The results are carefully noted und pub lished for the Information and guid ance of the farming community In tho 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 cheese making, etc., that all may learn the lust 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. VeTy 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 he 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 went 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 FARMERS' TEAMS AT A WESTERN CANADA FAIR. tored. 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 1**1 ng a ranching country, has large deposits of minerals. It Is also heavily w ooded as well as well watered. In all Canada laws are enforced with the strictest impartiality. There is no such a tiling known in Canada as mob law and lynching, not even In ita moat 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 la not alone In agriculture or j stock raising that Canada offers un- | equaled opportunities to the young or middle aged man. Its fisheries are l-he richest In the world.
