From England, from France, from Denmark, and from Hungary,--to say nothing of Russian nobles, they are drifting to the prairies of Alberta and Saskatchewan to prosper on farms or ranches. Everyone knows, of course, that the Prince of Wales has a large ranch in Alberta, stocked with thoroughbred cattle, sheep and pigs. But everyone does not know that along the shores of the Saskatchewan River at Fort Saskatchewan a twelve room house of graceful architecture and modern throughout has been built on a ranch covering a thousand acres where Lord and Lady Rodney, with their family, have decided to spend the rest of their lives, with occasional trips, of course, back to England to visit their friends and relatives. Before undertaking to run the ranch, however, both of them "hired out" as farm hands on a neighboring ranch until they felt that they knew something of conditions which homesteaders on the prairies are obliged to meet. Now they are not only successfully running their own large farm, but friends in the nobility of England have sent out their promising sons to train under Lord Rodney before they, too, buy their own ranches. Lord Montague, son of the Duke of Manchester, is a pupil on Lord Rodney's ranch. The son of Lady Farquhar, of London, England, is another Lady Rodney's little son, John, although only eight years of age, helps his father round the farm and bids fair to being an experienced farmer before he is out of his teens. One of France's wealthiest noblemen, the handsome Due de Nemours, who attended the annual ride of the Trail Riders of the Canadian Rockies this summer, was so fascinated with the country round Banff and the Yoho Valley that he is reported to have bought some property and intends to return again next summer. Prince Eric of Denmark, whose marriage to one of Canada's best known society girls was an event much heralded, has expressed his intention of following the example of the Prince of Wales.
