'q-.--'. “A " l amen (lf mm mm Mr Juo Cornish Br., returned home on Saturday last from a. prospecting tour out west looking about ten years youn- ger. While out there Mr Cornish en- joyed himself immensely and was de. lighted With that great lone land and what he could imagine in his mind for the futuie pinspecis of that country. To prove that the prairie wa" adapted for growing oats as well as wheat was clearly proved by a sheaf of oats which he brought home with him. which we must confess was the heaviest oat, sheaf we had ever felt and was giuwn from outs which had been shelled the previous year. Mr Cornish reports all who have gone trom around here and settled around Lumsden, as being prospeious. One instance to suftice: Mr James Tiaynot thrashed on his farm, fifteen thousand bushels of wheat, besides a huge number bushels of oats. which turned out by accumte machine mea. sure 105 tons. per acre. That it is also a great country for game one may judge from the fact that on a single day’s hunting Mr Cornish tugged 50 rabbits and said he could have shut 50 more had his amuiiition not run short.
