Made Good Money in Mixed Farming
A letter from the Scottish Farmer reprinted in The Canadian Countryman recounts an early settler who arrived in the Prince Albert district in 1908 with about $400. Within three years his assets grew to around $5,000 including land and stock, illustrating that mixed farming can provide steady revenue and substantial wealth for homeseekers. It argues the area rewards industrious settlers and urges capitalists to establish local industries to diversify the economy and reduce unemployment. Two or three local factories could employ most seasonal workers, linking farm and factory work for mutual benefit.
