( Forty years ago our cousins south
of the line were singing "Uncle Sam

and thousands upon thousands of
Canadians accepted the offer and
settled in the Western States, but
now ibe situation is changed, Uncle
Sam has no more farms to give away.

west to the great provinces of Sast,:-
atchewan and Alberta. The Great
Home Land is rapidly filling up, peo-
ple are flocking in from all over the
world, every day two new schen]
houses are opened, the railroads are
being rapidly extended in all direc-
tions, the buffalo runs have given
place to broad fields of grain and
wealthy cities have grown up where
only a few short years ago nothing
but the smoke from the Indians
teepee blurred the evening sky.
( Two great facts stand forth pro -
5 minently as one studies the condi-
tions in our great west at present, viz:
(1) The people must have railroads.
(2) The railroads must have people.
This brings us to the subject of the
C.P.R. ready made farms in Alberta,
