who have tried them are now fully
prepared to substantiate. The soil
as 1t IS will give good returns, but
when prepared, holding fertilizers SO
well as it does, will place the farmer
in a competitive position with any
agricultural section. So much for
the land. The climate is as perfect
as one could wish; there are no two
opinions about it. The spring is
early and dependable, the summer
is tempered with rains and cool
breezes, the fall is always pleasant,
and the winter is open, rarely him
dering any outdoor occupation. The
social advantages are VIGOROUSLY
and widely known. Let any other
settlement in it's green days stand
up and show advantages above, or
even equal to, those we have in
Rugby, and we will back down.
For manufacturing and trading
facilities the conditions are unusu-
ally favorable. A wide, easy and
we'll graded road connects us with
the rail, and upon the estate four
raiI,0ay depOts give exceptional con-
veniences to manufacturers, and the
business and travelling public. Coal,
too, is abundant and cheap, along
the line, and any amount Of timber
adaptable to manufacturing uses.
| We have thus endeavored to show
as inducements to settling among us,
a few of the many advantages the
Boards lands, with the town of
Rugby, possess, and it is our duty
and privilege to make them known
for the benefit of those who are
looking for homes.

The object of the Board of Aid to1
Land Ownership is one in common
with all land owning comp anies ON
the continent-the disposal of land.
Whilst the object is common one,
the advantages offered by competing
companies may, and do, vary i'm
mensely. On the other hand, the
object of the Rugby settler is to
make a home for his family, and,
perhaps, some of his posterity.
Now those families already upon the
ground have their interests so closely
wrapped up with the success of the
Boards interests, that they cannot
but be in partnership with the land
company in recommending the
broad acres awaiting development
around them. But can the families
that shave borne the burden and
heat of the day and, so far, proved
themselves entitled to be classed
