It's a question emphasized by a governmental report which predicts | that in only a few years there will | be as many people living in the cities. of the province as now are living in the country. ; For predominantly agricultural Saskatchewan, Canada's greatest wheat-producing province, that's a considerable change. | The population totals about 800,- | 000. There are only about three persons to the square mile, scattered over the. sprawling 237975 square miles « within the province's boun- | daries. Most of the population farms the elevator-dotted wheatlands, or traps and*hunts in the north. But 40 per cent live in the cities; the five major cities -- Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, . Prince 'Albert and Weyburn-- have .shown considerable increases in population since the Second World War, and have more - than 150,000 persons living in them. It wasn't always so. In 1901, 84.4 per, cent of the population lived in the; country, only 15.6 per cent in the! cities and towns. . The report, compiled: bythe -gov- ernment's economic advisory: and planning board, predicts that by 1960--unless the trend is arrested-- city and country populations will be equal, One of the reasons is that farm- ers themselves don't stay on the land the year round. When harvest- ing is over, they like to enjoy the amenities of city life. They have money; they've been receiving good prices for their pro- duce. 8o they buy city homes--for cash--and their children go' to city schools."
