To the tourist op*, cannot realize any- thing more pleasing than sailing through the waters of Georgian Bay, with its crystal' water and Ito numerous is- lands, of varied formation of aim and ilizepo. and the richness and beauty of the foliage.

At pre- sent alley sea their cattle and talieep half flnished, allowing bait ot their met- tles to go to the men who bus' and feed them. arid as lumbering on the Istand is practically done, stock feeding would aft ford pleasant and remunerative work tor the winter months.

Sante farmers said they had guld as many as from thirty to sixty head of cattle at one time.
