Nor rhwerst Notes.
Over thirty oar loads of grain were
shipped from Brandon on one of the
last days of November.
The Brandon Sun says :—Wo have
been shown a sample of white Busman
wheat, grown on the farm of Mr.
Knowlton on the Little Saekatellewan
which is an excellent sample, He
land 25 mores of it sown that gave a
yield of 800 bushels.
The Calgary Herald gives a rumor
that a cache of liquor made near High
River ou his Last trip north by Neil
Campbell, who was drowned at Fort
Saskatchewan in 1876, has been dis-
covered by the Indians, who are ro
jolting themselves pxoeodingly there-
on.
The Brandou branch of the Mer•
chants' Bank received the sum of
$176,000 on deposits from the 2nd to
the 16th November -14 days. Tho
Imperial Bank was about the same
for that time. making over $854,000
received in too banks in two days.
Considernbla dissatisfaction exists
n Prince Albert on account of the
delay ou the pitrt of the Government
in settling farmers' claims for loses
occasioned by the lute rebellion. In
many Oaee8 the farmer% have no other
moans of support during the coming
winter.
The Halbbroed Commission have
brought their lab.lrs to a close at Fort

Pearce returned to Winnipeg. Quite

amongst them being those of Dr.
Schultz, Russel and Walter Smith.
Mr. Goulett remains for a few days
to look after any that may come in,
which will be very few.
R. Burne, of Winnipeg, was in
Minnedosa lately. Hearing an Winni-
peg that in the section of country sur-
rounding ue there was no good wheat,
he was afraid to come, but he express-
ed himself as much surprised at the
quality of the grain offered in the
market, having seen very little that
would not grade No. 1 hard, and is so
well pleased that he has decided to
put up a warehouse at one end of the
track.
A public meeting was held in the
Gladstone Town Hall for the purpose
of considering the finances of the town
and other matters. Mayor Claxton
presided, and 111r. Budge was appoint-
ed secretary. The meeting was un-
animous in aeking that the Govern-
ment should take up the town's rail-
way debentures and issue instead Pro-
vincial ones ; also that Parliament
should legislate for a more equitable
division of the railway debentures be.
tween town and country.
The Winnipeg 1 res Press says :—
Mr. Nairn, of the Winnipeg oatmeal
malls, shipped on Saturday to Mont-
real, via the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way, the first carload of oatmeal that
has been exported from the Province.
This is e. trial shipment, and, if the
effort to place this produce on the
Eastern markets proves successful,
the farmers will be greatly benefitted,
Mr. Nairn hopes to secure more fav-
orable rates for traneportution on fut-
ure shipments, and be appears quite
aanguine as to the result of the van•
lure.
The Winnipeg Manitoban says : –
The Regina & Long Lake Railway
Compaq, enamors particularly their
able and energetlo President, Mr.
Pugsley, are to be congratulated ou
the success of their operations for the
past season. They have eompleted
twenty miles of railway, and are pre-
paring, with every prospect of success,
to put a steamer on Long Lake, by
which their system will be extended
far into the interior next summer.
The Batlleford, Prince Albert, and
Saskatoon trade will in all probablity
pass over this route, The railway
company in question have every pro.
spect of success, and they deserve it.

a quarter auger hole, over which the
tree had grown in thickness about
four inches. On the outside no
traces of the hole could be seen.
From the growth of the tree since
the boring of the hole, it is supposed
that the come were put there not hat-

mud R. W. Starr—all the fruits shown
by these being very fine—the Grate
ensteine, King of Tomkins, Blenheim
Orange, Ribetun Pippins, Fallawater,
King of Pippins, and the various
russets being of various sizes and
high color. 'Che fourth prize went to
Canada (to Mr. Nicoll), but the ap-
ples were not so good as the Nova
Sootians, and were poor when placed
beside them. Class 2 was for 24
dishes, and here again the Nova Sco-
tian apples were incomparably the
superior ones, taking all the prizes.
The entries here were large and the
ehow interesting. Claes 3 was for
the best packing, and here again
the prizes were won by Nova Scotian
growers. The show was noteworthy
as evidencing what a small place like
this has been able to do in a very
short time in this matter. The au•
thoritiee of the proviuce saw some
ten years ago that there was opening
for the growth of really first•olass
apples, well packed, and sent to
England and America. The third
class in this show ought to have
been seen by English growers, for it
was a capital example of how to send
to market. Only so long ago as 1881
but few apples were sent to this coun-
try ; now Messrs. Northard & Lowe
receive something like 10,000 barrels
a year. Both in New York and Lon-
don a market has been created, and
for these splendid and well•paoked
fruit the highest prides are obtain-
able. There was a great lesson to
the English farmer and pomologist in
this show.
