Excerpt from Agriculture, Climate and Population of the Prairie Provinces of Canada: A Statistical Atlas Showing Past Development and Present Conditions The material is presented by means of maps and charts which are supplemented with interpretive comments. The dot map is a convenient graphic device for showing the geographical distribution and density of production and population and for comparing farm values, incomes, and expenditures in different districts. Although the value of the dot is shown for each map, the choice of scale was made rather with a view to visual effectiveness than for easy computation of totals. The totals from which the maps were prepared are for the most part tabulated by municipality in the printed census volumes. In both the dot and shaded maps use was made of the smallest political or other divisions for which data were available. The volume has been designed to serve the purposes of the farmer, the prospective settler, the agricultural scientist, the business man and the student of Canadian economic geography as well as of persons concerned with settlement policy in the West.
