This will give an idea of the fruit- fulness/of Mr. Moberly s vision of - the future of that land of waste, a totally unexplored country when he introduced cultivation into its being --an unbroken forest. Truly one might think it `should at least bear the name of its founder. The soil .7 was good agricultural clay. I What Clay Belt Is Th_is clay belt extends from Harri- canaw river in Quebec to the Missin- abie river in Ontario, a distance of 400 miles, running from 100 to 200 3 miles in width, the wider part prob- ably being along `theiT. and N. O. l R. R. about New Liskeard, extending 50 miles north of Cochrane. s It is mostly thickly timbered, principally with black spruce. ~The seasons are short but the days are long and crops mature quickly. Magnificent clover and timothy and practically all vege- tables do well. Mr. Moberly says grain, such as wheat, oats, barley and ryepwill do well if the land is ploughed in the fall. To his mind it is preferable for settlement to many parts of the Northwest today. I In the latter country there are in P certain "sections various drawbacks, 1` such` as bad water, lack of water, t. barren soil, etc., which condition does 1;. not obtain in the clay belt. n '1"!-m ("mu-:.......4...I .::-..-.1- -..-__-- :- In 1907 He, stgra;.3';.;{'the location work for they Transcontinental line.

His headquarters were then established on Whitefish river near the east end of Lake Abit- ibi. He suggested to the Commis- sioners that if there was no objec- tion he would clear a piece of land and see what could be done in the. way of making it productive. During the next two years Mr. Moberly produced a variety of grains and vegetables which matured. excel- lently. The result is that today there is a large settlement there with a village bearing the name LaSarre nun. 1...;4.
