fittractions for Immigrants
UUU
LTHOUGH Prince Edward Island can not expect to receive very many of the thousands of settlers who are yearly coming to Canada, since there is now
comparatively little room for such, yet it is a desirable place for a certain class of immigrants in search of improved farms with buildings, and within reach of the social comforts of life to be found in a relatively old and well—settled country. Scientific farmers with a little capital can here obtain excellent farms at from $30.00 to $40.00 an acre, and reach a more independent position than is possible in Great Britain. Nor are these farms by any means worn out or inferior; on the contrary, they are often among the best~— farms which will yield a good return for the work bestowed on them, and afford a good income. In many cases farms are thrown on the market in consequence of the death of the owner, or through the preference of the younger members for city life; or in other instances they are vacated by those who, wisely or unwisely, leave this favoured land and turn their faces to the “Golden West.”
