L-Vegetables and children grow SO far as known, the first grain crop ever grown in what is now the Province‘ of Alberta, was in the Pcacc River country. This was in isoo. Dnnicl W. Harmon. in chores of the Northwest Company's post at Dunvegnn, records in his diary that in that year on July 21st, he cut his harlcy. “I think it is the finest," he wrote, "that l have ever seen in any coun- lrv. The soil on the points of land fllnng this river are excellent." Harmon's opinion as to the possi- bilitics of the country was supported hy traders and travellers who follow- cd. Professor John Macoun was the first scientific explorer m study it lhornu hiy. In a book published in i885 he stated that “the vegeta- lion throughout the whole Peace River valley is of thc most luxuriant character, and it seems more Ii c that of the tropicsthan of a coun y drawing near the Arctic circle." ut when thc Province of Alberta formed, ninety-six years after r- mon made the cniry quoted fro his 3—Vermillon Landing on t well in the newest north. 4.—A Peru River potato p l ures of the Alberta Department ol Agriculture, there wcrcproduced in the provincial constituency of Peace River the following quantities of grain: Spring wheat, 1,495,680 bush~ cls, an average yield pcr acre of 30.34; ivintl-r whczit, 15,107, an aver- age of 16.20; oats, 4,334,400, cm aver- age of 40.22; barley, 323.400, an aver- age of 22.42: rye, 40,092, an average of 43.81.‘ Harmon's judgment was thus well vindicated after lil years. It should not be forgoitcu that its mineral and timber wealth may yct be shown lo equal its agricultural. For over u century it has been a rich fur producer and many farmers add considerably o their revenue by trap- ping in their spare time. Dr. G. M.
