In the Northwest. | LETTER FROM ONE WE KNOW.

Deax Mr. Eprror,—Hitching my ponies to a double rig on Monday, at 4 p. m., with Mrs. C. and Mrs. D. and two little girls (the youngest of the family) I drove out of Neepawa for a summer outing. Tak- ing a south-western trail for twelve miles we arrived at a friend’s house and tarried all night. We notice with pleasure how nicely the crops are coming forward, this year’s yield promising to equal that of last year to the acre, with considerable more land under cultivation. Tuesday morning finds us early on the trail, which in some places is not very plainly marked. As we draw away from Neepawa we observed that , there was more vacant land, dwellings fur- ther apart, and more of the ‘* prairie lone- ‘liness.” But as the settlers are coming in, these plains must shortly feel the touch of \the plow. ‘‘ Camped ” for dinner near the Assiniboine with the Grand Valley at our feet, and the city of Brandon crowning the opposite hill side. The scene was highly | picturesque—the meandering river with |banks thickly covered with elm, maple and willow; the spreading valley with its ‘fine green nutritious grasses being cropped ,with scores of cows and ponies; the sloping | hill sides marked with trails winding down jthem; and just before us a couple of jmiles away was Brandon, beautiful for isituation, the second for size and import- ance in this Province. But, alas, for us, jas we were regaling the eye, and the ‘palate as well, the big clouds. rolling up ‘from the north-west began emptying their fatness on the earth, and as nature does ! nothing by halves in Manitoba, we hada good shower. Dinner over, and the shower ‘under,—again forward. Now through the | busy streets wheresyou rub shoulders with | people from almost every land, where you meet equipages of almost every conceivable ‘description, from the barouche down to the ‘Red River cart, whose ungreased axles

|

i drone out music of melancholy sort. Here | is the well mounted cowboy, or pony driver from the plains, side by side with the Eng- lish dude (with breeches and boots) from Bow Bells; the Indian, blanket and paint, sometimes minus the blanket; yonder goes a procession of the 8, A., with flag ‘and drum and a motley following,;—while ‘around a corner on a vacant lot is going forward a grand ‘‘ pow-wow. Here the druin is on thé ground. Squatted on their hawunches are a dozen Indians, who, with their everlasting ‘* tum-tum,” intermingled with the hi-hi, make music for the capering braves, who, to the evident admiration of the dusky maidens ranged around, are having what they call a dance. But away, —up the hill past fine residences, past the fine agricultural fair grounds, past some beautiful farms, wire fenced; again out on the broad prairie, with its grass waving in the wind spangled with beautiful flowers. Calling a halt for a few minutes, some beautiful boquets ‘are gathered, and then as the sun is sinking, a favorable spot is seletted. ponies are unharnessed and tethered, tent is pitched, supper is cooked and eaten, beds made, and wrapped in blankets, we look for slumber. This is our little girl’s first night under canvas and she jthinks she cannot sleep ; but the eyelids droop, and when next they open it is broad light with another day. Some of the older ones were not so fortunate. The ponies were tethered some little distance apart, and as the lines were long, one travelled the length of his rope, the other in the darkness missed him, and the piteous calls he made not to be left alone on the prairie taught me two things—

d| first, the strength of pony attachment, and

second, the difficulty of getting sleep with- in a few yards of a whinnying horse. Breakfast over, tent folded, cooking uten- sils packed—off and away again. Sometime in the forenoon we passed through a beauti- ful little village, once called Plum Creek, but now Souris. Ht is built on a high bank near where the Plum Creek and Souris River unite. They have a beautiful school house with nicely laid out grounds, three churches, several grocery and dry goods stores, hotels aad feed stables, and a large flouring mill driven by steam; and when they get a railroad, I predict a splendid future for it, though I do not know that I can quite agree with one of its citizens, who declared to me that it was the most beauti- ful place in Manitoba. Going forward again the Turtle Mountain away toward the boundary ;came in sight. For the next twenty miles we pass over fine rolling prairie, almost houseless ; prospect, grass and sky. Here in the near future when the C. P. R. Southwestern reaches the Souris{coal fields, some hundred miles from here, this treeless prairie, tickled with a plow, will laugh with a harvest of golden wheat, No. 1 hard. Just as I calculated when leaving Neepawa. I was driving along the streets of Deloraine at7 p. m., and answering to the beckoning hand of an old friend (who had spied my well-known ponies far out on the prairie) was receiving the warm and hospitable welcome of a fam- ily we had known in our first Manitoban experience.

Deloraine is a town whose history reaches back a year and six months. While the student of antiquity will find here little to interest him, those who are looking for evidences of progress will see in the fine stores, good warehouses well filled with agricultural implements, the two large grain elevators receiving even yet last year’s crop, and notice the hurry and business that characterize the inhabitants, they will think of the Yankee editor who once wrote of a western town in the U.S.: ‘ This town began last night and this morning has five hundred inhabitants.” Deloraine is at present the terminus of the C. P. R. Southwestern, and is well situated—near the foot the Turtle Mountain, which is at present well timbered—surrounded with a tine prairie, rich in agricultural possibilities, lit must become a place of importance.

To-morrow I think I will cross the line and visit Uncle Sam. But I fear that this letter is already too Jong, and so with kind

regards to many of your readers, whom I well remember, I am, yours truly, W. W. Coxpirrs.

India’s Wheat Crop.

The Mark Lane Express publishes an epitome of the condition of the crops in India for the present year, which does not contain much that is calculated to show that India is to lead the world as a wheat ex- porting country. The summary presents the following facts. In the north-western provinces and Oudh there is a less acreage under wheat than in 1887, and nearly 300,- 000 acres less than in 1886. This year’s yield is stated at a little over fourteen bushels to the acre, or a bushel and a quarter per acre less than 1887. Owing to a bad harvest and other causes the price of wheat is 33 per cent. higher than in 1887, and at present rates Indian exporters can make no profit. In Bengal the acreage for 1888 is 25 per cent. less than that of 1887, and the crop much under the average. In the Central Provinces the normal area of wheat is 4,000,000, this year it is 3,858,809 acres, an increase, however, over 1887 of 258,400 acrés. The average yield in this section is only 105 bushels to the acre. Little is said of thecostof cultivating wheatin India. We have the statement, however, that ‘*in some parts this ranges from 13s. to £1 per acre, taking wide areas of land.

* + + With an average crop of 104 bushels per acre and an average price of something like 19s. per quarter at that place, taking the average of the last four years there can be very little profit left for the producers in the Central Provinces ; but they continue to grow wheat, being evidently satisfied with next to nothing.” As civilization spreads in India the price of labor will goup, and the Indian grower will not always be satistied with ‘** next to nothing.” Our Northwest, with its yield of 20 to 30 bushels per acre of the finest wheat ingthe word, need not fear competi- tion from India or any other quarter. The opinion of English millers is as good as any, and they agree in saying that Mani- toba high grade will command the top of the: market. There is nothing in the re- ports from India to justify the statement that India wheat is bound to drive all other wheat out of the market in tne United Kingdom, the inference being that Canada should abandon the growth of wheat. These statements are sent out for an ulterior purpose. They form a part of the machin- ery by which it is hoped to depress all our Canadian industries in order to lead the Canadian people to cast themselves into the arms of the neighboring republic.

EEE Emperor Williams Departure. A correspondent cabled from St. Peters- burg on the 21st inst.: The departure of Emperor William was a notable event. At three o'clock the Czar bade farewell to his uest and returned to the Alexander. The yerman fleet again saluted, and then the signal was given to weigh anchor. The anchor of the Hohenzvllern was raised at four o'clock, but owing to her length and position she took a long time in getting around, and it was not until 4.30 that she passed under the stern of the Enterprise. Prince Henry was in command, and the Emperor, who was in naval uniform, once more looked with interest at the United States steamship Enterprise with the Stars and Stripes prominent among her gay lines of bunting and Yankee sailors aloft on the yards.

The Asia began the final saluue. The Enterprise took ic up, white puffs of smoke, followed by the thunder of the guns, gra- dually extended to the forts and down the Russian line in the outer roads. As the Imperial German yacht passed by all the crews cheered; the people on board the ex- cursion steamers and the crowds assembled at Cronstadt mole hurrahed; guns, big and little, were fired; flags fluttered and hand- kerchiefs were waved until the Hohen- zollern passed out of sight, bound for Stockholm.

Emperor William before leaving was to have presented, in the name of his Empress, to the Czarina a fan cf the finest viclet wood, on which are painted in group por- traits her four little boys sitting in a bower. On the back of the fan are verses in cele- bration of the friendship between ** the mighty of the earth.” The fan is enclosed in a case lined with white silk, on which the Empress has embroidered the mono- grams of herself and the Czarina.

Apvice to Moturers.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as “‘bright asa button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy for diarrhwa, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty-five cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, and take no other kind. [April 1 ‘88
