There are -so many things to tell you regarding this new country that I hardly know where to start. I have already written all about our trip out here as far as -Edmonton, so I needn't go over any of that again. I stayed at a hotel there for -three weeks while Will, (I like this name. better than Bill) travelled hundreds of. miles look- ing .for a place he thought would suit us. There are a great many properties for sale, so he had plenty of choice. Some people told hitn he was crazy to think of investing in a ranch, at present, as. the United States tariff has ruined the cattle trade with that country, and the -high freight rates Prevent the shipment of caetle to Brit- ain at a profit. Will's idea was, how- ever, that now is the very best time to buy property in the West, because lend and stock are _about as slow in the West as they can get, and the next change must be for the better. We have '640 acres of deeded land and I hai-dly know how muchleasehold, btit I can ride miles and miles on my pony andneverbe off our own ranch. I think it is a lovely- conntry with the sprettig- flowers carpeting the prairie, the cattle feeding in the Valleys, the gtorious sunshiny days •and the air so clear and pure that mountains fifty miles away seem almost at our door. Will bought our ranch from aheaem- eeican who wanted to go back to Uncle Sam'country. He said rartefie ing was alright but too slow for him,. he thought he would go to Texas and invest in oil stocks. We got a bargain from him- as he was anxious to sell, and .buyers with the cash are scarce at present. We have a very comfort- able house with modern conveniences and -I ain now nearly settled. Every- thing in the boxes came through with- out a break, but I musr"fess up" that I am sometimes a wee bit horneaick, when I see the peetty and useful things all around me that-. remind me of the dear people in Old Ontario, , Our nearest neighbor, a bachelor, is a pile away, and the. nearest woman two miles, but she is a dear, and we try to see each other every day, and telephone whenever we feet lonesome: She is English andoften rode to hounds in the old country, so she has been teaching me a lot of things about how to ride a horse properly. , We have some fine stithes together, and Will says he knows I arn perfectly safe' when, I alai out with her as she is equal to any entergency. Her hus- band was four years at the war, and she managed the ranch while he was away, and made a lot of money too. Her oldest boy is now only eighteen, and her oldest ,girl, sixteen, so they were mere children when her husband enlisted. 1 nearly foegot to tell you her name, it is afrs: Ehnsleigh and she calls their ranch "Seven Oaks" after an uncle's estate in England, she has a delightful English accent, and I love to hear her talk, almost as well as I always liked to hear dad getting elo- quent on politics in his Irish brogue. l3y the way everybody seems to be Progressive out here.It is hardly considered respectable to be a Grit'or a Tory. I must close now as' I have to get the dinner ready for the men and Mrs. Elrasleigh and I are going riding this afternoon. With love to all, from Katie. - Aar EETING OF HURON COUNTY -ma Council.
