Forty left Oskaloosa for Canada last Monday, led by G A Gesman and N J Gesman. Two weeks earlier Gesman bought 112 acres for E H Gibbs and has now authorized purchase of 2 more sections. The offer promotes land near Regina at about $3 per acre cheaper, within 2 to 15 miles, and cites Gibbs on Regina’s future growth.
