So at 2 o'clock the large carriage | met usat the Parliament grounds, ready to drive us out. We all boarded tie cab }(18 of us) and drove out to the farm. We had a letter of introduction from the | head office to Mr. Fletcher, the manager, to show us around. Mr. Fletcher is the right man in the right place, and under- | stands farming, gardening, stock raising, and in fact he seems to have everything pertaining toa farm and its surroundings at his fingers ends.

were told that one farmer sold his farm | (160 acres) that same week for $4,000. ; Var next stop off was at Brandon. It has a population of 5,400 and is a large grain | market. It has five large grain elevators, | 4 flouring mill and a saw mill. The Govern- ment Experimental Farm is located here and managed by Mr. Bedford.a very clever

| nan, @ man that understands his basiness. | They have some fine stock on this farm. We weighed one of this year’s calves and

| it totalled 640 Ibs., and a Short Horn bull, 1900 Ibs. This |} farm is run something on the same prin- ciple as the farm at Ottawa, cultivating

| shelter trees. This farm is quite a boon to the farmers of Manitoba, as all the far-

} mer has to do is to watch the managers | and vee what kinds of seed suits that clim- ate. Then he canget the same kind of seed and sow it without any risk. The

| same as to grass. There are various kinds | of grasses grown here, so the farmer has only to follow out the eame course as_ tlie Experimental Farm; the same in shelter trees. The farmers are beginning to cul- tivate shelter trees in many places. Bedford hitched up teams and. drove us front the farm to and around the city,then drove us to our car. We had fine weather all through. There was no sign of rain; the wind was a little cold, but fresh and dry. We met some Ielanders here. - I saw Jokn H. Longworth and young Beer, a son of Dr. Beer, They are in charge of the C.P. R. station here; I also saw Artivur Essery, Shaw McCallum ; and last but not least, we met here one of our old citizens, George Wright. He looks well! and is preparing to zo into the grain and pork business, I sould say he can make money at that business, as he has a good couttry to work in. I say euccess to him. We left Brandon Sept. 25th, at 10. p. m., for Indian Head. We arrived there Sept. 26th, at 4 p. m.. Weat- wards, the line follows a gradually rising prairie, bounded by low wooded hills at the south, and by the Qu’Appelle River, 8 or 10 miles away, at the north. Here again for a considerable distance, speculators holding most of the lands near the railway have kept the cultivated farms a mile or two away. This section is as yet almost exclusively devoted to wheat and cattle. We were met at the station here by the Manager of the Government Experimental Farm (Mr. McKay.) He escorted us out to the Farm. This is quite

They thresh, clean and bind it time. They feed the fur nace with straw. They stack the grainin large ricks about ten feet apart, in pairs, in a straight line through the fields, They drive the thresher in between two ricks, and pitch off eath stackyas it takes two pitchers to keep onethresher going. When they finish these two stacks they move the thresher ahead to the next two,. aad set the straw on fire and burn it up after them. They make a clean sweep as they go. It takes about twenty men fo° keep one of these steam threshers going all day. As one feeder can only stand half an hour atatime, the second man is always on hand to take his place. The feeders get $2.50 each per day, and the other men $1.25

The next farmer we visited was a Mr Dickson. He moved here from Ontario twelve years ago, and took up a section of land (640 acres). He has good buildings, two binders (7 feet cut), two press drills, plows, harrows, truck wagons, and all the implements used on a large farm. He showed us some wheat which he had just threshed. He sent a sainple to the Corn Exchange at Winnipeg, and_ it was graded “extra.” He says that his wheat will yieM this year 49 bushels. per acre on the summer-fallowed, land, and 35 bushels on the scratched land. Wat is meant by the fallow and scratched Jand is, after they are through with the planting in the spring they set to work, plow up about one-half of what they intend teed ing next spring, and keep on harrowing that all through the summer to kill «the weeds. The next spring they put the pressed drill on this and sow the wheat. That is all they have to dono harrowing or rolling. Whatis called the scratched crop is, they burn the stubble of the ground where the wheat or oate wae last year. They put the pressed drill on this. plowing, and sow the seed. Thet is all they have to do. What is meant by a pressed drillis,a seeddri!!. Itis something like our seed dril! on the Island, only they have a large, narrow metal wheel rupning behind each spout, which covers the grain. Mr. Dickieson says he will have about 8,000 bushels of wheat this year.

The next man we visited was a Mr. Harper. He left Ontario about eleven years ago. He worked on.the’ Bell Farm for seven years and saved up $1,500. He then bought three quarter sections of land, and to-day he has 2 binders, 2 press drills.

per day.

plows, harrows, truck wagons — all the fit out for a farm—ll horses, 30 head cattle and fair buildings

—all paid for. He thinks he will have ahout six thousand bushels of good hard wheat for sale this season.

The next man was @ Mr. Stephens, also from Ontario. He has one and » helf sections of land (960 acres) He had just finished threshing a 10-acre field of wheat the day before we got there. That averaged forty bushels per acre. They were cutting a 150-acre field of oats the day we visited the farm. He expected about eighty bushels of oats per acre. He is well _ provided with. farm machinery, horses, cattle, pigs, etc. He expects to have about seven thousand burhels of wheat and about five thousand bushels of oata this season.

The text farm we visited was that of a Mr. Williamson, another Ontarid man. He has two sections of land, _ It is quite a sight to. see this man’s stack yard. It forms quite a little town of grain stacka— and he is stil] cutting grain. It was such a sight that we hal to get a photograph of the stacks ard fields. We have two expert photographers with us—Mr. A. S. Johnson and Judson Clarke.

The next man we called on was a Mr. Todd. He came out from Ontario twelve years ago, and took up land for himself and his four brothers. But only one brother eame out, and so they kept the section between them. He worked two years on this land, but got tired of it, and went out threshing and drilling wells for two years. He soon got tired of that, and went back to his farm and settled down to work. Today he has two. binders, two press drills, plows, harrows, eleven horses, thirty-five head cattle (all paid for), and about six thousand bushels wheat and from twenty-five hundred to three thoueand bushels oats.

I asked him how he managed when the blizzards came around. He said he heard more from dewn-easters: about blizzards than he ever saw in Manitoba. He said he saw very few of them since he came to the country. He says they have cold weather there sometimes, but they prepare themselves for it. They have not much to do in winter, so they have no need to expose themselves. The cold snap only lasts a few weeks. This district is more adapted for wheat and oat growing. They do not raise cattle here—only a few milch cows. There is no ranching in this sec- tion.

The next station we stopped at ~was Regina. It has a population of 2,200, and is the capital of the Territory of Assiniboia, and the distributing point for the country north and south. Wemet our old friend Frank Darke and his wife and sister, Pope Balderston, J. K. Mcinnis (formerly of Darlington), all looking hale and hearty, @ id seeming to be doing well. The next stop of was at MapleCreek. This isa ranching district. There are numerous lakes and ponds, some fresh, some alkaline, at_in- tervale. At this station are’ extensive yards for the shipment of cattle.” This is where Messre. Theo. McLeod and David Bertram, of Hunter River, have their sheep ranch. Our party divided them- selves into two divisions. One drove out to the sheep ranch, the other to the cattle ranch. We had to drive about twenty miles to reach Mr. Bertram’s house. ‘ When we arrived at the house, Mr. Bertram was some miles away with the sheep. Mrs. Bertram invited usto stay to tea. We accepted the invitation and fed our bronchos, (horses.) After we had made a good meal out on the wild prairies, for the first time in our lives, we hitched up our bronchos and drove out to where Mr. Bertram was herding his sheep. He was glad to see us, as we were the first Island- ers he had seen since he arrived out there.

Sheep ranching is rather a tedious bus- iness. You cannot eave them for an hour at a time, as the prairie wolves are death on sheep. Mr. Bertrarn says he has

seen the most of his hard times. His first breed of sheep did not suit the country, but he is getting into a good

breed now, and hopes to make some money soon. The other half of our party visited some little ranches and were .reat- ed very kindly. They were all imvited to dinner (thirteen in all.) They were treat- ed to the best. The people out here are very kind to strangers. They are offend- ed if you do not accept their invitatioas to dine with them. Messrs, Dixon Bros. from

Ontario run a large store at Maple Creek —it is Jarger than any store in Charlotte- town-and keepa general store, from a needle to an anchor. They carry on ranch- ing in horses and cattle on ‘a large scale. They have over 400 head Gf cattle and 75 horses. They lave one rick of hay put up for the winter's feed, We measured it. It is 276 yards long, abowt 50 feet wide, high as a man can: piteh, and .they are still adding to if’ More anon. Anexanper Hore. —_—_—— Personal
