Crops a little late but most of the cutting
world be done before the honey froet of
lbs early' part of this week. At Rehina
the atop ie also good. Saw tbe finest half
section of wheat, about Sons miles from
Regina, just ready to out two weeks ago.
It would yield 80 to 85 bnehele to the
acre. Crop good at Indian Head,
Siotaluta and Woolelsy, a little earlier
than Regina and Mooeejaw and buoy
nutting two weeks ago. •
Spent Ie. days in the Brandon wheat
fields with nn old Brussels friend, J. E.
Smith. We drove neer 60 miles one day
and inopecied thoneands at mores of
wheat. Tbere is some that there bob
nothing to damage either quantity or
quality 'seriously, not more than 10% and
the average will be 18 to 20 bnehole per
acre. Wheat on Portage platen is in
moth the same condition as at Brandon,
Taking it altogether I think an estimated
average of 18 to 20 bnehels per acre ie a
eafe one and nt the prices they are going
to get this year itis safe to say that the
people of Manitoba end the Territories
are going to realize from 15 to 20% more
teem this year's crop then they ever did
before. I -regret to learn that wet weather
and front tan done some damage singe I
left wbioh may somewhat rednoe their
average profits •bat not to any serious
extent ae all the best wheat was out and
in the Stook a went or 10 daysago and
not sufficient to stop the rush of iminlgra,
tion from ;tie U. S. next, amnion.
I mat Americana everywhere spying
out the cannery and estimating its wheat
raiaing gualltlee and theunivereal opinion
eeproeeed by them le that it is the great-
est herd wheat raising country on earth,
and that the influx Iron their country is
only beginning 5; that the emigration
will be three times greater next season
than ever before. Utley don't neem
to mind the change of flag so long no they
tan raise hard wheat and plenty of P.
A° a national rosttlt of the great in•
mese in popolation, all the older towns
and cities are growing rapidly and dozens
of new towns end villages springing up
all over the country. Winnipeg is still
the "hub" and will remain 50 no she
holds tho control of the entrance to the
Greet 'Vest and has the established
iuetitutious, such as Barden,wholeea'e
houses, edaoati,nal inetibl bions, &s., with
which to do it, Vancouver is the city of
the Oust and will likely remain so, ex-
cept the Grand Trunk Pecific le able to
bullet up a competitor but this is a
question of the enure.
I don't want to iutroduoe pe itioe here
but I think thee even allying trip through
that ooantry abould be euaicient to eon.
view the m,at elleptisel of the neoeseity
of another trans 000tinentel railway and
probably a third before the G. T, P. is
completed. I can't resist saying that I
think the thee's( of Grit and Tory alike,
over this Dominion, are due to the Hon.
Olifford Sifton for the able and energebio
business metbode he adopted and is carry-
ing out to fill up the great West. The
average Manitoba Tory will not agree
with this statement, but politics are very
hot there, and he has a right to hie
opinion, bat no doubt this is the key
note of the preeent prosperity to that
country and it is likely to continue.
In (lasing these rambling notes I would
say Ibat Horace Greoly's advice, "Go
Wast young man" still holds good. It is
certainly the country for young men who
are willing to work and not a bad country
for older men, ifthey hove something to
do. 'There aro -drawbacks and inoon-
venienuee to be met'with that are net
appreciated by "tenderfeet" bat these are
mot with everywhere. Tbere are nom.
forte and conveniences in old Outeerio
that the West will never bave and the
men who ie well off and hue a good home
in Centric ehoald stay here bat the young
matt luoking foe a home should go West.
