PER ACRE In th-Canadlan Pacific's 3,000,000 acre tract of wheal land east of Cal gary, Alberta, a new district has just been put on the market at $10 per acre, on 10 years' time at per cent interest. .This land lies directly on the main line of tho Canadian Pacific and one crop of wheat or oats will pay for it. The winter Is open and mild and Vmatllla county purchum rs. tire mov ing over this month to bi-gln work on their new farms. Mordo McDonald of Walla Wallit, but v-ll known In Grande Rondo, is ending over a big farming outfit to begin work on his section and a half east of Calgary. He says that It Is the best wheat country on the American continent. Bert Huffman, formerly of Union county, Is farming his land east of Calgary this year. Conductors Jack Smith and Len McCrary, of the O. H. & N., will begin work on a section near Strftthmore thin sprlnn. ' Wheat raising on the Canadian Pa cific tract is not an experiment now. Miles Parrel, a farmer near Calgary, harvested 4ti'4 bushels of winter wheat per acre on a full half section of new land. Yields of from 50. to 60 bushels have been commonly reported all through the new settlement In the Bow River valley. One crop pays for the land. A. E. Burnett harvested 60 "4 bushels Of No. 1 wheat on new land east of Calgary In 1908. Over 100 bushels of oats were grown on land adjoining the above tract. Spring wheat matures In 120 days owing to the long hours of sunshine In the growing season. DON'T HE A RENTER "WHEN YOU CAN OWN A HOME IN A XKW' COUNTRY.
