The attempt to get our farmers to leave _and goo" to the North-West was entirely outof place. He was a local man and believed` in Ontario. He" went into that car and the whole thing was poor. There was far better grain at our own exhibition. The man in charge was a Yankee and it was amere speculation. How do we know that the things were the produce of the N orth-West? it was an attempt to puff the Canadian Pacific. The car from Dakota was far better and the things it contained altogether ex ceededwhat that car contained. He got part `of the way through the car and was glad to get back.

II'IL_ _ ...._-__ :_A.-_J I____!,, ,, _ 1| Canadian Pacic Car. The Canadian Pacic Railway car steamed into the station yard here on Saturday at the advertised time, and immediately became the centre of attraction of a large number of people. Its mission was indicated in French and English on the outside. It was visited . by immense crowds during the afternoon and evening. By the courtesy of Mr. Bailey, the gentlemauly conductor, we had the op portunity in the evening before the general` public were admitted of inspecting the con- tents of the car. His Worship the Mayor, W. B. Cross, Reeve of the town. a number s of the members of the Council and members of the Press had been invited to visit the car at the same time. The productions of the great North-West were amply represented. The car was lled with specimens of natural and cultivated productions of what was once but no longer, the Great Lone Land. eWheat, barley, oats, peas, vetches, axseed, and various grass seeds were ranged along on both sides of the car in compartments, and finer specimens could not be found in On- tario. ~ Potatoes. which would make glad the heart of the hungry man, were there and could not be beaten in any soil or climate in the world. Ranged tastefully on both side: were specimens of the different grains in the straw and of the various native and cultiva- ted grasses. The length of these grasses fully attest the extraordinary fertilityof the soil and the favorable nature of the climate. There were specimens of onions, squashes, ' kohl-robi, pumpkins. sweet corn and other like productions. Tomatoes, "plums, both I wild and cultivated, huckleberries of great size, with numerous varieties of small fruits which are to be found in great abundance in the proper` season. Specimens of the rich, dark "soil of the regions on theliue of railway were on exhibition and was evidently very rich in organic matter. Blocks of coal from the great carboniferous regions look like the I large blocks from the mines of the north and west of England. At one end of the car were specimens of the heads of the Rocky Mountain sheep. deer and antelope. Photo- graphic views of places of note and scenery were ranged round the car and formed an in- teresting feature of the exhibition. Speci- mens of the grain were freely given to all who desired to take them, and books de- scriptive ofthe North-\Vest and the advan- tages which the settler has in comparison to what he mav expect in the VVestern States. The Canadian Pacic Railway Company are doing a. good Work in calling public attention to the fertile lands on the line of railway and other parts of Manitoba and the North West. The object is of course to direct the tide of immigration to the Dominion . lands instead of permitting it to go to the United States. By diffusing reliable information as they are doing, is the only way to counteract the lmeans adopted by our clear-headed neigh~ bors in conjunction with -the leader of the Opposition to get immigrants to prefer Dakota and Montana rather than the rich lands of our own magnicent tcrritorv. ar Mr. ide of A man by the name of Bracken, a wealthy farmer whose residence is about a mile from Coldwater. was at Onllia last Thursday, and _ started for his home. on the night train.
