Who Should come to Prince Edward Island

fl'Ll HOUGH PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND cannot expect to / receixe very many of the thousands of settlers who are yearly coming to Canada since there is now compar- atively 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 comparatively old well-settled country.‘ Scientific farmers with a little capital can here obtain excellent farms at from $30 to $40 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 aflord 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 turn their faces to the "' Golden West. ”
