grain shipping route by way of hudson bay ror tuo hundred jears hudson bay had been the front door the main entrance of the fur trading parties who came from england by ship to churchill and thence by york boats made their way across tho wet establishing posts at widely separated points but maintaining direst connection with ifudson bay as their base of transportation with the coming of the rallwayu direct connection was provided with eastern canada and the old route fell into disuse now tliat the rails reach the shores of hud tan bay at port churhclll the old entrance to western canada has been reopened and the vision of shott route from tlie ucstern prairies to europe has become reality modern harbor and terminal have been constructed at churchill and cargoes of wheat are successfully despatched to the markets of areat britain and europe during the post season of navigation which opened on august oth and closed on october 8th fourteen vessels reported inwardt and outuards at churchill with registered tonnage of 44 100 tons in un cargoe amounted to coo long tons wheat exports vieb 203 501 bushels valued at 2bfi idb tlie chief claims for the hudson bay route are that it shortens the distance to european ports and brings the head of ocean navigation into the east and uest centre of the continent prom churchill to liverpool li 030 miles win rent from new york
