+Without using the checkbox \checkbox{Only request features overlapping the
+current view extent} QGIS fetches all features from the WFS-server. If you
+only want to have a small selection based on your extent, zoom to the area
+of interest, request the WFS-layer again and make sure you have checked
+the checkbox mentioned above. Basically this addes the BBOX-parameter with
+the values from you current extent to the WFS-query. This is extremly
+usefull when you only want to request \textbf{some} features from a huge
+WFS-dataset.

 You'll notice the download progress is visualized in the left bottom of the QGIS main window. 
 Once the layer is loaded, you can identify and select a province or two and view the 
 attribute table.
