'breaking in" land in 'Manitoba.T'elle. I ata to held a meeting this evening to
ing nitatt rltwl is abundant. What a start a private congee house to relieve
contrast with clearing up a btisb farm!
I leave those who have redeemed a
farm from the forest and extracted the
stumps from the field to judge of the
relative merits of Manitoba and On-
tario in this respect. Tho climate is
healthful and pleasant, the summer
being long and warm, uniformly; bright
and clear, with the exceflt"scu of oc- are to be bought in the same place for
cgsional showery days; while the even- nominal sums Duly, rile people have
lugs are so cool that a blanket around nothing to feed them on, and in some
8
is not at all uneomfortal:lo. The winter
is certainly cold, severe and awl;rulron
by thaws, but exceedingly pleasant to
such as aro able to clothe and house
the necessities of some. Every day we
give money from our owls resources,
but it is a heavy drain. Rice sells at
twenty-five shillings a bag of 104 lbs.,
which, last year could be bought for
eight sbiiliugs, and of course every-
thing is dear in proportion in the veg-
etable line ; but cows and poultry, &o.,
places there is actually a famine of
water as well as food. Grass is an
,article of importation and pays for its
conveyance. We feed about 800 lac 1-
themselves comfortably. The snow is ole dully, one fecal a day only, giving
Meyer more than a foot on an ave rare.
Stock, if well provided for, thrive well
in winter. As already stated, the often -
try is rich in mineral deposits, the
forest, eta., while toe productiveness
of the soil is amazing. On the farce
of Ur. Moss, at High Bluff, we plucked
a "stool" of oats containing 27 stalks,
one head alone measuring; 184- inches
in length, while the total product from
the oue grain, from which the ' stool'
sprung was 3,400 grains. Hard -work
is entirely unitn'wn in :1lanitoba farm-
ing. For the amount of money invest-
ed more money eau b:r made there than
in Ontario, because land costs ote-
tenth less to either purchase or break
than in Ontario, while the yield per
acre is Vastly in excess of ours, and
the general prices paid almost as high
as those paid ou the Guelph .narket.
The total yield in 1870 was estirnated
at 500,000 bushels of wheat, 180,000
of barley, 880,000 of •oate, 50,000 of
peas, 10,000 of other grain, 450,000 of
potatoes, and 700,000 of turnips. This
year it is estimated' chat Manitoba sur-
plus grain will reach 500,000 bushels.
Wheat is now being sent to Montreal
andelsewhere from -Winnipeg, at 84c.
per bushel. A Mr. Smith, !.lora
(nephew of Mr. Smith, of Cream Creek,
formerly of Pilkington, and once War-
der- of our County), sent two oar loads
to Elora at tite figures I mentioned,
but enough to keep them alive. We
cannot afford to give more, as we shall
have, probably, to feed them for four
months!, perhaps longer, Last mouth
was a great festival time among the
Hindoos, but owing to the famine, not
many came to market, although there
is a temple here much frequeuted by
devotees. Sometimes, after landing ou
the shore they roll the whole way(8
miles)to pay their devotions. Iii one
taleeg 80,000 died of btarvation' in a
month. In our district 70,000 died in
May. Is it not terrible ? You can-
not imagine wLat scenes we Indians
see and hear of daily. Can you int-
agiue a woman boiling and eating her
baby ? That occurred not mans !miles
from !lore :only last week. When pos-
sible,'I superintend the giving of the
food, and have' often soon the mothers
