Wood, Manager of the Freehold Loan and Savings Company-, who has returned from a three week's visit to Manitoba, gives the following - impressions of the present condition of that country: "1 left Toronto about the beginning of Anguat and drove over 400 miles throughout the Province of Manitoba. I found the crops unequalled since the organization of the Province. The wheat is excellent in all parts of the country, if you except a few fields now and again which were noticed not to be so good. All the farmers with •-whom I conversed are certain that the yield will not be found less than twenty-five bush- els to the acre. From what I saw my- self it is my opinion that this estimate will prove correct. The oat crop is also good, but the barley is nothing extra. Root crops of all kinds looked well, and will turn out good. As to these crops not much revenue is gained by the farmer through them. The reason is that each farmer cultivates only a few acres, owing to the local demand (which is the only one) being very limited. " Wnen I Ieft Winnipeg on August '20 it was generally supposed that three- fourths of the wheat crop had been har- a-est0.. The people have had new hopes infused into them by the brilliant prospects of an abundant crop. In Winnipeg the good crops gave con- fidence to the merchants, but val- ues have not as yet been affect- ed. The business facilities of Winni- peg are sufficient for all the coun- try, towns and villages which are tribu- taries to its trade. Increased railway way facilities, along with the present year's good Grope, will naturally give greater confidence to persons leaving Ontario for the Northwest. They will also have the effect of a fewer number of Canadians going to the United States, and of a larger number emigrating to Manitoba. "1 regret to have to say that the largest proportion of Manitoba farmers are in reduced financial circumstances. The early frosts and bad harvests could have but one of two results—either the reduction of capital, or increased debt. Last year's crop, though not a very good one as regards first-class grain, was in excess of the two or three previous years. The sample of last year was good indeed. This year, however, they will have a very large crop of first-class wheat, but it will take two or three years to reme- dy the drawbacks of the past. l'hey are yearly improving on their system of farming. They do a large amount of summer fallowing and fall plowing, and consequently can sow earlier, and in case of a dry season the better cultivated land stands the drought to a greater ad- vantage. "There seems to be but one• opinion regarding railway accommodation. The railway from the boundary to Winnipeg, say 60 miles in length, is being built. It is proposed to extend that from Winni- peg, one the south side of the Assini- bome, to Portage la Prairie, say 60 miles further. This will connect with the Northwestern, having an independent • charter and which is already completed through Gladstone, Nippewa, Minne- dosa, Shoal Lake, Birtle and some miles • to the northwest of the latter place. It runs through a magnificent country and is being extended year by year. The question of freight rates is important- to the profitable development of agricul- ture, but, in the present financial posi- tion of Manitoba, to the farmer there it is above all other considerations. The Manitoba farmer is thoroughly convinced that he is unjustly treated by the rail- way company, and he is determined to have his rights at all hazards. "The Local Government fully under- stand the spirit of the people on the question, and are giving expression to it by every possible means. The question of railway accommodatfon is above party politics in Manitoba, and as a conse- quence rest assured it will be obtained. The farmers there work hard, they are economical, and with the present year's abundant crop and fair play in freight charges there is a bright future in store for the Prairie Province." characteristics did these mares r‘present or approach the standard he was breed- ing to. The ay is past when a slope rurnped, long 'backed nondescript is deemed a fit trotters. Th hereafter will npr be is a very ge ero oughbred bload coming from the sons and daughteta of Messenger, Diotned and American Eclipse. al to breed to secure sting trotting strains those in which there s admixture of thor- Sqda Water. - The drinking of, so -b a lled, soda water is becorning more and more general. There aae nearly seven thousand foun- tains in Boston alone. They are found not only in drugstdres, but in restau- rants, bar -rooms, confectionery stores and retail merchants' establishments. One house in the city has a fountain which cost between five and six thousand dollars., All are familiar with the effervescence and foam •that attend the mixing in water of carbonate of soda and tartaric acid. As the term." soda" is applied both tthe fountain and to drink issu- ing fro4n it, one naturally supposes that there i0 soda in the foaming fluid he is taking.' It is not -so, however. ' The water is charged with carbonic acid, and is flav- ored and the various gas is force sweetened with some one of syrups. The carbonic acid into it with a pressure of one hundred and eighty pounds to the square inch, and it is the escape of rth5 gas, when the faucet is turned and the water flows into the tumbler, that cauaes the foaming. The gas was formerly obtained from carbonate of soda, and hence the present name which still clings to it ;but it is now obtained from marble, which is a carbonate of lime. Marble is simply lime and carbonic acid chemically com- bined. The union is a weak one. Sul- phuric acid ilea a much stronger affinity for the lime than the carbonic, acid has, and upon being poured on powdered marble releases the carbonic acid, which is then absorbed by the water. Itmakes no difference with the drink whether the carbonic acid is obtained from soda or from marble, since nothing but 'the acid passes into the water. In, and in the neighborhood of, large cities, the sellers of soda water do not charge their own fountains. It is done for them at large central estab- lishments. The question has been put to us if soda water is wholesome. Almost any acidulated drink is pleasant in summer, and it often meets a real need of the sys- tem. Probably carbonated water is as wholesome as May. We shoald advise less of the syrup than is consmonly taken, partly -because it is apt not to be pure, and partly be- cause,' even if pure, it 0 not very good, for le stomach. Plain soda is better than soda with!syrup, and after a little time, quite as pleasant as that. We believe that ca -re is taken to have the water pure, and to keep the appara- tus free from corrosive matter, and when this is done, no harna,is likely to result from a moderate resort to the fountain. The Blood for Trotters. The continued clamor that is being raised against the use of thoroughbred blood in the trotter has silenced many who positively believethat extraordinary speed and lasting power can only be at- tained by its use. After the recent trial of Maud S. at Cleveland, where she trotted a mile in 2,081, a reporter of the New York Tribune interviewed Mr. Bonner, her ewner. In that interview Mr. Bon- ner is reported to have said that he con- sidered it a wonderful performance Arid pointed out that the first quarter was trotted in a 2:11 gait, the second. quarter at a 2:06 gait, making the half mile at the rate of 2:09, yet notwithstanding this great flight of ispeed, she went the third quarter around a turn and ovea a track that was slow- at the rate of 2:04. - In this connection he said that it was - the four mile running blood that is in her veins that stayed her up for such a performance. He asserts that thorough- bred blood is an essential in a speedy and game trotter, and attributed Jay- Eye-See's great abilities thereto. He added that neither Rarus nor Dexter were comparable to Maud S. He said that speaking within bounds, she could trot in 2:08, and that his brother, David Bonner, believed her capable of a mile between 2:07 and '2:08. He believed that she could do better at Rochester, Chicago or Providence than at Cleve- land. Mr. Bonner has, for over twenty years, been experimenting with trotters, during which time he has been the owner of some of the most noted animals known, and the strong and emphatic terms in which he declares himself in favor of a large preponderance of thor- oughbred blood in the trotting horse is very significant It shows the conclusions arrived at and based upon over 20 years of observation and actual experience. His opinions were evidently those held by the late Count Orloff, the founder of the Orloff family of trotters in Russia. With the exception of the use of a Danish and a Dutch mare early in the history of the breed, from whom were bred the sires he used in his experience, every particle of blood in them comes from the thoroughbred. English thor oughbred mares were used entirely to breed to the Orloff stallions, and not un- til he had secured the form, speed, courage and endurance he was after did he cease using them. The use of out- side blood in his early experiments was simply to secure better shoulder action, as neither in form, style or general — — Horse Gossip. REAL ESTATE FOR SALE.

Sixteen of his horses sold far 7,220 guineas— about $361,500. A horseman says that half a pint of sunflower seeds, given tio a . horse with his other feed, each moaning and night, will keep him in good health and spirits, and his hair Will be brighter. A contemporary says: "Goldsmith Maid,at the height of her glory, was taken through a haat street to a public place and put up at auction, the !specta- tors bidding in good faith until the price wae run up to $34, when some one con- nected with the stable bid $35, and she was led away." Well, if Phallas was put up at auction in the same way, among a party of horsemen who did not know him, it is doubtful if more than $100 would be paid for him. As the girl said about her lover, "He's god, but he's an awful meara looker." . This according to the Canadian Breeder, is what an'English groom said to a Yankee hostler: "When a horse comes in all wet with perspiration you let him stand in the stable and dry with all the dirt on. In England we take the horse as he comes in. from a drive and sprinkle blood warm water all over him, from his head to his feet. The we scrape him down and blanket him, rubbing his legs and face dry. Thus in an hour he is clean and dry, and ready to take a good feed, while with your way he will stand and ewelter for hours, and, finally dry sticky and dirty. Our horses never founder and never take cold. We never use a curry comb. You scratch your horses too hard. The only care neces- sary is to have the water not very cold, then bathe them instantly, while you are rubbing their legs.
