Hughes That this Is a most prosperous year for Alberta province, Canada. . and that land values are advancing rapid ly in that section of the country Is declared by M. McDonald the Walla Walla linr.se man, well known in tills city, who has Just returned from Cal gary, where he purchased Kino acres of wheat land at $12 per acre. Thousands of settlers are rnshlnR Into that country this fall and all are buying' land. The Canadian Pacific company Is selling a fine body of laud east of Calgary and this year many extraordinary wheat and oat yields are being' enjoyed. Mr. McDonald, Mr. Resser and oth er Walla. Walla people are buying heavily and are bcRlmilng to develop their land. It Is thought by these practical wheat growers that Alberta, nnd especially that portion enBt of Calgary, will become the granary of tho north, to ami a Lind has advanced from $3 per acre there in the past year still greater advance is expected inj the next year on account of the thou sands of eastern farmers going thorn.' The Canadian Pacific sells Its land' direct to the settler on eight year's lime, which makes it possible for men with small means to get a foot hold. Mr. McDonald declares that one fa miliar with the country two years ago would scarcely recognl.e It today on account of the large wheat and oat fields which now cover the entire country. He believes that the Canadian wheat land Is particularly Inviting either as a farming or Investment proposition nnd Is himself heavily In terested there. His land is not for sale, but he will farm on a large scale as will also Mr. Reeser, who has shipped up a steam plow nnd Is then taken to the office of Justice. Parkes to give bail. So completely were all taken by surprise that it was not until the dif ferent men faced each other In the court that they learned a general raid had been made.
