It seems that olden Manitoba, like older Ontario, is uthe citiet and the newerseeteyrinignto by tbe drain of people and districts. He .ay.: If you come from Huron. Grey or Bruce. you are pretty sure of a hearty welcome in almost any pert of south- ern Manitoba. All along the way from Norden 10 Napinaa Om rugged Scotch and Irish offspring of the old Ontario counties have established new bomeeteads and built up towns and villages now among the okleet com- munities in the Province. At Mo den the president of the Board of node end the editors of the local news- papers can talk tor !mum almost about their boyhood day. in Goderich, and farther weet in Pilot Mound and Crystal City, the twin towns of Mani- toba, the 'stoat news of fleeter. On- tario, forms the topic for conversation of interminable length. Killarney, the beautiful little summering place with It. lakes and dells, despite the name was given its first start in life by a ficotchman from Bruce county. For thirty veers Alderman Thomas has lived in Delorairie, but he was born in Ctbeeley. Many are tbe genealogical connections between these towns and the rural districts of old northwestern Ontario. The bond was created in the early eighties, when the big trek was started westsward from Ontario, fol- lowing the opening of the new trans- continental railroad, and Manitoba in- culentally secured at that time the best class of settlers that possibly has ever entered the prairie country. People who glance carelessly over southern Manitoba are saving that it is a worn-out district and has had its day. But such is not the rase. The older parts of Manitoba are truly not so buoyant and active as they *ere ten and fifteen years ago tor various reasons but Manitoba is in a period of traneition, which will undoubtedly lead to better things than brave yet been realized. Many of the old -estab- lished towns. such ma those already named, have suffered from a heevy ex• odus of familieo and money. From the small town of Deloraine over one hundred and fifty thousand dollars has gone into property in Winnipeg during the past five years. Sister towns tell the same story of depopula- tion and outside investment. Like the Ontario counties in the years extending from 188610 1909, the older communities of Manitoba have given their sons to the newer districts farther weaL History has surely been repeating itself in the last decade, and Huron, Grey and Bruce have become the original homes of three generations of pioneers. Looking now at the de- velopment of Western Canada one is inclined to measure the whole Domin- ion by generations nether than by miles. First, the fertile pinelands of Western Ontario were cleared by a race of hardy farmers and homes hewn in the hush became the first homestead,. Then sons and daugh- ters migrated to Manitoba and other hotnestrads were established. And now grandsons and granddaughters are pushing farther toward the sky- line. where. newer and more fertile land awaits their coming. Each gen- eration represents a journey of a thousand miler., and as we realh out for the frontiers of Alberta and see lines of steel °petting the way far in the direction of the Arctic circle, the thought comes that grandparents in Huron, Grey and Bruce may yet see great-grandsons an d great-grand- deughters seeking new homes in the last thousand miles of the world's greatest Weet. But while thousands of eyes and mil- lions of dollars &redirected towards the far western frontier. what about the future of Manitoba, particularly the southern district, containing tbe homes of those first settlers from On- tario? It takes time to change from growing grain to misIng live stock and airy cattle. But southern Manitoba is being both induced and forced into the change. The crops haven't amounted to a very Irma deal in the lam three Years, and the demand for all kinds of email food products from [motets like Winnipeg and from the new settlers; in Saskatchewan and Alberta has been ouch itO to prove the prodtablenees of feeding grain and fodder instead of growing grain alone.
