The Manitoba Free Press editor argues for a coordinated drive to settle Western lands. Aimed at attracting careful farm families, the plan envisions government land boards listing vacant lots with two year price maps and literature to link settlers with suitable land. It would mobilize Prairie provinces and immigration agencies to boost Western Canada settlement.

It envisions benefits for municipalities, schools, merchants, railways, provinces, cities, and the Dominion.
