The latter road will have disposed of all its lands within a short time. It is said that last year the average price received per acre was nine dollars. The Northern Pacific sold its lands last year in immense tracts to syndicates. Much of the land was timber land. The aver- age price was $1.50 an acre, The Canadian Pacific's sales of purely agricultural lands lying adjacent to the rails averaged $3.25 an acre. * * —Even for the graziers of New Mexico the prairies of the Canadian Northwest have attractions. It is said that the Littlefield Cattle Com- pany of Pecos Valley has decided to move 50,000 head of Hereford cattle to the British Northwest, where a million acres of grazing land has been leased at two cents an acre for 20 years. Three hun- dred miles of barbed wire fence will be built, at a cost of $50 a mile. The moving of the big herd will begin next spring. A country where a million acres of grazing land can be leased and not missed from the great area, is a country to be proud of. * * —Says the Toronto Telegram : Michigan statesmanship `seems to have the knack of reaping where Ontario statesmanship has sown. A. great white metal industry in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, is to base its prosperity on the cheap and unobstructed supply of raw material from Ontario. Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, has a great power canal, is to get a paper mill, a white metal industry and a variety of other blessings without the sac- rifice of a dollar of public money or an acre of public land. Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., has a great power canal, steel rail mill and other in- dustries. With a great price On- tario obtained all these advantages, whereas Michigan is free born in the sense of getting everything from, and giving, nothing to the Clergue interests. materially changed by September gales. The apple crop may bo so reduced by high winds later on that values a month hence may be dou- ble what they are to -clay. Aside from what the wind may do, all indications point to an in- crease in prices later on. One of the largest Ontario dealers, who was recently through the Western States, had his idea of the value of the Ontario fruit increased by 50 cents a barrel as a result of what he saw of the poor condition of ap- ples across the lines. Since then conditions in the United States have not improved. The American Agriculturist, basing its estimate on the reports of correspondents in all parts of the United States, says the indications are for only a mod- erate crop of indifferent quality in the Western centres of production, while in the east conditions are ir- regular. The returns indicate, the Agriculturist says, anything from complete failure up to a moderate yield, with a full crop nowhere and even an average promised in only one State—Michigan. What the Agriculturist says is borne out, too, by the Climate and Crop Bulletin, issued by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture. This report says that the general outlook for apples continues unfavorable, save in Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Michigan and New England. The Reporter adds that while reports from New York vary, a light crop generally is indicated. In Nova Scotia, J. W. Bigelow, president of the Provincial Fruit - Growers' Association, says the out- look in his Province is for a mar- ketable apple crop not exceeding one hundred thousand barrels. The Agriculturist says, too, that the quality of fruit in the United States will, owing to the , limited amount of spraying done this sea- son, be inferior. To this The Sun may add that the same is true of the crop here in Ontario. There is an unusual amount of spotting on apples this season, and the quanti- ty of really No. 1 fruit will be very limited. Even good No. 2 will not be any too plentiful. ° The August Bulletin issued by the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture estimates the crop in this Province at nearly six bushels per tree as against five and a half bushels in 1900. This, with the greater number of trees in bearing this year, will give a crop, the Bureau estimates, of forty-one million bushels or upwards of five millions in excess of that two years ago. The Sun is inclined to think, however, that the- Bureau corres- pondents have not allowed suffi- cient for the drop, and that when the final returns come to be made up the crop of this year will ,be found below that of 1900. In any case, as already Btated, it is too early for farmers to give quotations on their apples, and the wise man will hold off a little longer. It is hardly possible for him to lose, and there is almost a certainty of a gain by so doing. Ritchie & Campbell successors to M. H. McIND00. rM1111111110 Wait ! No need to go to Toronto for Goods.

In spite of the unusually wet weather, which has to some extent injured most crops, the prospect for a fair yield of sugar beets in Ontario is most encouraging. For the four big factories, which are now in course of erection at Wal- laceburg, Dresden, Berlin and Wi- arton, upwards of 20,000 acres are being grown. At several places also throughout the Province, where factories are proposed, plots are being grown experimentally. From all the points reports indicate that up to the present the crop is all that could be expected. * * —The trade statistics of the 'United States and Canada, for 1901, do not seem to strengthen the argument that Preferential Trade has made our products more sought for in Great Britain.
