You know—or should—that just such an opportunity is offered to you by the construction of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railroad through British Columbia to Prince Rupert. A nifference There is one difference, however. In a stead of the immense tracts of open country and prairie tapped by the two former roads, the Grand Trunk Pacific runs through a rough and mountainous country G ne 1, w a 13 Nechaco Valley Farms, Br back and forth between and around the numerous islands and bordered by wooded banks that dip to its embrace. Into this feed a number of smaller streams that both water and drain the valley, cutting it into rich meadows that yield bountiful harvests for the mere tickling of a hoe. The soil, black loam and Rich alld Ffl“l' s0i m deposit, is of the finest quality and fertility, being rich in natural plant foods and entirely free from sand, gravel, stone and alkali. With even a minimum amount of cultivation and care this land can be made to yield diversified erops the equal of, if not superior to, those grown in any of the most favored parts of the continent. ‘“The soil everywhere is of the richest quality. It is composed of fine deposit soil with clay sub-soil; in some parts the deposit attaing a thickness of over forty feet. Not only is the grass very luxuriant on the prairies, but even in the wooded portions pea- vines and vetches of different species grow to such a height that it renders traveling very difficult.”’—Extract from Government Report. While, prior to the coming of the nearly all the way from the eastern slope of the Rockies to the Pacifi¢ Coast. Agricultural land along its route is limited. But. on the other hand, what farming land exists is exceptionally rich and fertile, beng owned and held for sale by land companies who have taken up all that was available and of value. The cream The eream of this land is contained in s what is known as the NECHACO VAL LEY, which lies in the middle western part of British Columbia. between the Rocky Mountains and the Coast Range, within a hun dred and twenty-five miles of the Pacific Ocean, just north of Seattle. Here the mild climate, the wonderful produetivity of the soi s evidenced by the wealth of natural vegetation, the abundant rater supply, the numerous lakes, rivers and streams, the beauty of the landscape, the markets and assured transportation—all make of this an unsurpassed agricultural district for highly suc cessful farming. ‘‘All available reports go to Government Reports: suow that shis district s one of the most greatly favored by Nature in the whole of the Province. . The Nechaco, with its level valleys and rich deposit, offers special inducements to farmers. Its advantages are many; the land is level; the soil is rich; and to a great extent open; the climate is mild; the principal crops can be grown with- out trouble; and the general altitude is much lower than that of the surrounding country,”’—Extract from Government Report. (The above and following extracts are taken from the Cana- dian government report issued by authority of the legislature assembly at Victoria, B. C., and compiled from reports made by the Government experts, A. L. Poudrier, D. L. 8., W. Fleet Rob- ertson, P. M, and J. H. Gray, C. E.) While the statements made are official and absolutely un- b biased you will see that they agree fully with what we have said | of this valley, and the complete confirmation of our claims.

Had it not been for this draw- back these lands would have been settled and cultivated long before much of the country further east, as they are much super- ior in every way. Yet, in the face of this difficulty, large crops of grain and vegetables have heen raised, crops that would com- pare favorably with those from any part of the country. ‘“In previous reports I have described the flat country of the Lower Nechaco as constituting the greatest connected region sus- ceptible of cultivation in the Province of British Columbia.’’'—Ex- tract from Goverment Report. A recent newspaper re- An omaha Man 's napofil port, written by Lysle 1. Abbott of Omaha, who had been in the valley, states: ‘‘ At Quesnel saw on July 20th, oats fully headed out, their tops touching the extended arms of a six-foot man. We gathered and brought with us peas of a heavy yield just beginning to ripen; potatoes larger than a man’s fist; and rhubarb with leaves thirty-six inches in width, the stalk thirty-two and a half inches in length and five inches in circumference. I picked one head of timothy ever twelve inches in length, the growth coming from seed thrown upon the unprepared ground of a burned élearing. From the data I col- lected I could multiply evidence of the almost tropical produc- tiveness of this wonderful garden spot.”” H No locality, whatever its other All ldEal cllmaie- udv:mmgés, is desirable with out a good elimate. You want to be healthy and comfortable as well as prosperous. The Nechaco Valley offers all three. Spring, summer fall and winter—the year through the climate is all you could ask, for health, for comfort, for the raising of a wide variety of crops. The moderate and even climate of this valley is due in part to the protection given by the surrounding hills, the remoteness from snowclad mountains, the nearness to the Pacifie, and the fact that the intervening section, between the Nechaco Valley and the ocean, has a lower altitude than any of the surrounding country. This low belt of land allows the warm southwest winds, which GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC LAND CO., course, a most beautiful stream of cool, crystal water, winding J. C.

Another tempering ele ment is due to the fact that the Japan Current, with its warm | influence, swings nearer to the land at a point due west of the Nechaco Valley than at any other place. Mild Willl'fl’s As a result the winters are short an”, " mild, and the light falls of snow cannot drift to any extent on account of the sheltering hills that surround the valley. Volunteer crops of potatoes have grown from those left in the ground the preceding autumn. The aver age summer temperature is 80 degrees, seldom higher, and is kept from being oppréssive by the constant blowing of a refreshing breeze from the west that makes even the hottest day comfortable. The rainfall, which comes during the growing season, is ample for all ecrops. Heavy storms or destructive winds are unknown. “‘The climate is all that could be wished for, no extremes; the days during the summer months, though hot, are never uncomfort- ably so. During the winter the snowfall is light and the climate mild. Settlers informed me that they never thought of feeding their cattle until about Christmas, and that in March they could be, as a general rule, turned out again.’’—Extract from Govern- ment Report. ¢ § S. 8 an old story. The sea, which contribntes two or three per cent; the | farm, the forest and the mine. 1 want to raise my voice always on the side of what I conceive to be the foundation of the wealth of our country—the farm. The crop of last year amounted in money to nearly nine and a half bilion dollaks—more than the entire trade of all the continent of Kurope. This year it is unques- tionably over ten billion. ‘“When a mine is exhausted you have a hole in the ground. When the forests are cut down, in most parts of the country you have sand ridges, but with a good farm you have fertile soil that can be cultivated and will renew itself in the most kindly way Mother Earth will take care of her children forever and forever.’ Look ahead. Think a little. Try and lonk Aheadl realize what the Nechaco Valley will be next year and the year after. Discount the future. You know farm land is the safest investment in the world.

The total amount of good land was limited in the beginning. It is much more limited now. There is none available for homesteading. There is no land.
