Why Be a Farm Renter and Make Some Other Man Rich? The Canadian Pacific Railway Offers You the Chance to be a Farm Owner in Fertile Western Canada. v V
TELL ME: Why should I leave my farm and home and move to Western Canada? YOU—Like Thousands of Other American Farmers—Are Asking That Question. Nearly a Million Americans Prospering Now in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba Would Give You This Answer: “TO BETTER YOURSELF. To Start on Little if You Have But Little and Make Yourself independent and Wealthy in a Few Years—Or if You Are a Wealthy Farmer Now, to Make for Yourself Far Greater Profits.” The Western Canada farmer knows that any American farmer with energy and enterprise and smaller capital than would be required to start anywhere else on earth, can make good in Western Canada. It is the enormous crops raised on land that is very cheap but most productive, which makes success so certain for the good farmer in the Canadian West. But besides the answer of the Western Canadian to the American farmer, there are SIX SPECIAL AND PARTICULAR ANSWERS—startling, remarkable answers that at first thought seem too good to be true—answers that offer you more than you were ever offered before. Yet these answers are made today, to YOU, by the greatest transportation company on earth; they are backed by capital of hundreds of mi|h#ns of dollars. These answers are the greatest features of the most wonderful and the most liberal colonization policy the world has ever seen. , * . ... . • . • . The Answers: -
Lands For All Lands that will pay for themselves. The richest soil in the whole world—soil which produces immense crops. Lands '3 for grain growing, mixed farming, intensive farming, stock raising, dairyng, and poultry. Ready for the plow. Near railroad and established towns. A healthful climate.
The Easiest Terms on Land Ever Offered— Only Down; 20 Years in Which to Pay. $2,000 Loans to Settlers. Let the Canadian Pacific Railway Put You on the Road to Fortune
With the richest soil in the whole world in Western Canada; with cheap lands which will produce double and triple what worn-out, high-priced lands anywhere else will produce; with the chance the country offers to start on little, to make your farm pay for itself and make you independent in a few years, why does the CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY make such startling, amazing liberal offers to get settlers for the Canadian West? Many a farmer has asked this question. It seems to him that if the opportunities there are so great, the country would quickly settle itself without such inducements. The answer is easy. The natural resources and opportunities are Western Canada rapidly—yet not as fast as it might be settled. Every new settler means bigger crops, more hauling for the Canadian Pacific Lines. Therefore every effort is made to get more and more settlers. And besides this —not only are settlers wanted, but the best class of settlers are desired and the Canadian Pacific colonization policy gets them. The- motives are-right;- the wonderful Offers made you are backed by brains and vast sums of money to carry them out; the opportunities are conservatively represented; it only remains for YOU to say whether you will be as quick to grasp the chances offered as thousands of good farmers before you. Haw is Yoir Greatest Opportunity— GOOD Land —Lowest Prices, Wonderfnlly Easy Terms. No mere land company on earth could exist and offer such terms oh rich, virgin, vigorous land, as are offered by the Canadian Pacific Railway. Just stop and consider —it takes some thinking to fully realize the tremendous opportunity for you that lies in these terms alone: PAY ONLY ONE-TWENTIETH DOWN t—that is, only 5 per cent of the price of your farm is what you have to pay when you buy it —and if you want this much time, you can PAY FOR YOUR FARM IN TWENTY YEARS! You may ask, “Will it take me twenty years to pay for my farm?” Certainly not, nothing like that long, not' if you farm with anything like the energy of most of the American farmers who have settled in Western Canada. In twenty years you surely will make enough money to pay for your farm and home and buildings over and over again. But here s the point. You can take twenty years to pay if you want that long. These splendid terms let you use by far the greater part of your capital for farm improvements, as you have to pay so little each year on your land. You can invest most of the money you make in bigger crops and make greater returns for
