Why Americans Are Hiking to Canada From Winnipeg
Winnipeg July 11 The largest land dealer in the world is Fred T Griffin head of land at Canadian Pacific railroad with 11 000 000 acres of flat wheat lands on sale. He says Americans seek large scale farming and will quickly pay for land and machinery. He cites an Iowa farmer who cultivated 260 acres, yielded 6 000 bushels, and left 2 000 dollars profit. The lands stem from a 25 million acre grant to CPR. 1 million acres were sold to US settlers for a million-dollar profit. Griffin argues lands cost 36 an acre and yield average 19 bushels per acre with highs to 40, inviting American settlement as crops prosper. The movement accelerates as settlers share news, drawing more Americans south of the line seeking liberty and economic opportunity.
