they stood before him holding hands

GOING IN THE SPRING.

The cultivators Of what the New
York Sun calls the stunted grain-fields
Of the East will hear with mixed feel
ings the reports Of the yield that has
been gathered from the farms of the
Northwest. Far-seeing men, q long
time ago, predicted that which we now
see happening in the country north
west of Lake Superior. The yield this
year has been good in many places in
the western part of the continent, but
amongst the largest returns reported
are some from Manitoba and the
Saskatchewan. Over their own sigma
lures, n number of, farmers have an
swered questions put to them, by q cir
cular from the local Government, Civ
ing precise details as to the acreage un-
der crop, the quantity of seed used, and
the amount of grain harvested. The
replies of some show over 80 bushels
per acre, but this is exceptional. There
are many over 40 and great number
have averaged 80 of wheat, with heavy
yields of oats and barley. The truth
appears to be, and the New York Sun
explained the reason, that the soil Of
Manitoba and the adjacent provinces is
exceptionally rich and specially adapt
ed for mixed farming by reason. of its
adaptability to wheat, and from the
rich grasses that grow SO luxuriantly
throughout the country. And the au-

thorities of these provinces have acted
wisely in offering their land free to
those who choose to settle on it; for the
measures they have adopted for assist
ing newcomers, and in making no dis
tinction between Canadians and other
people. The railways, too, by giving
purchasers of land free ticket west
ward, have shown an appreciation of
the situation. The spring will see many
availing themselves of the chance Of
