economy in feed is an important matter,
and has led to several tests, the result of
which is recorded as follows: To each of
three thousand of their horses they gave a

daily allowance of oats sixteen

pounds, ground hay seven and one-half
pounds, and cut straw one and oneseighth
pounds—the hay and straw being cut into
pieces about half an inch long, and well
mixed up with oats in a little water, thus
making twenty-six pounds of food for each
horse. And to each of the other three
thousand horses they gave a daily allowance
of whole or unbruised oats nineteen
pounds, and uncut or whole hay or straw

2. The point between Fort Edmonton
and the Rocky Mountains is to be mined by the Governor in Council.

3. The terminus of the branch line to
some point on Georgian Bay is to be deter-
mined by the Governor in Council.

4. The mode of working of the sections
constructed, the kind of engines, locomo.
tives, and gear, are to be under the direc
tion of the Governor in Council.

5. The sections may be divided, and

6. The price of the land on the line is to
be fixed by the Governor in Council.

7. The Companies building the section |
may be granted further lands and rights
of way by the Governor in Council.

8. The working of completed sections of
the line is to be earried on under the dis |
rection of the Governor in Council.

9. Any portion of the railway may be
constructed asa Government work by order
of the Governor in Council.
