Interior. Ottawa, Canada:
Sir-Thinking that my experience in
Manitoba might be both useful and in
terestlng 10 my fellow countrymen i'll
> the United States who may be looking
to Manitoba and the Northwest with
the intention Of settling there, l have
much pleasure in stating that through
information received from Mr. w. f.
McCreary, immigration Commissioner
at Winnipeg, | was induced TO visit
Manitoba in February, 1898. When |
called upon Mr.. McCreary he spared no
pains to give me all the information
etc, in his possession, the result OF
which was that / came here with Il
letter of introduction from him to the
secretary of the Nirden Board of Trade.
That gentleman provided me with a
competent land guide, and although
there was considerable snow on the
ground l had no difficulty in selecting
three homeSteads for myself and sons.
Having made the necessary homestead
entries at the land office in Brandon, |
returned to my home in Lyon County,
Minnesota, and came back here in May
following, accompanied by one Of my
boys, bringing with us two teams Of
horses. implements. etc Our first
work was to erect n temporary Shanty
and stable, after which we broke and
leveled 70 acres and put up 80 tons of
hay. I went back to Minnesota about
the goth of July, leaving my son here.
i returned in October, bringing my
family with me- | found that the land
we had acquired was of good quality,
being a strong clay loan with clay
SubSoil. Last spring | sOwed 100 acres
in wheat, 80 acres in oats and barley
as acres of this grain was sOwed on

was threShed in October, the result
being over 200 bushels Of grain in all.
Wheat averaged 10 bushels per acre
and graded No. l hard. but that which
was sOwn on land other than sod ego
back went 241a bushels per acre.
To say that | am we'll pleased with
the result of my first years farming
operations in Manitoba does not ade-
Quately express my feelings, and /
have no hesitation in advising those
who are living in districts where land
is high in price TO come out here. if
they are willing TO do a fair amount OF
work. | am ten miles from Nirden.
which is a good market town, and nine
miles from Hargrave, where there are
two elevators. This summer / erected
q dwelling house of native stone and
bought 4 half-Section of land adjoining
our homestead, for which | paid a very
moderate price. There are still some
homesteads in this district. and land
Of fine quality can be purchased from
the Canadian Pacific Railway Co at
$3.50 per acre on liberal terms. Good
water is generally found at u depth of
from II TO 20 feet. | have 10 acres
ready for crop next year.
The cost OF living here is about the
same as in Southern Minnesota. Some
commodities are higher and others
lower in price. but the average is about

GREAT SCARCITY OF TERRAPIN
Diamond Backs Will be Beyord the
Reach of Ordinary MortaIs

There is n great scarcity CT the Chesa-
peake bay diamond black tcrrapin This
luxury promises to be more expensive
this season than ever. The receipts and
shipments for the opening week are not
up 10 the average. Prices range about as
follows: Eivemch. SO to SIS a dozen.
6-inch, $50 TO 80; finch, SEQ TO $50.
These are expected to remain the ruling
prices for the season. and il is thought
that few will come to market.
Receipts of Chesapeake terraDin grow
smaller each year. This season it is es-
tlmated that not one-fourth as many will
be received as were Il few years ago
The stock is practically depleted. One
large dealer, who formerly handled about
$4,000 worth each season. last year
handled only $1,000 worth. The law pro-
vides that no Il rrapin shall be marketed
which measures less than FIVE inches in
length Oh the under she'll
Dealers state that Il singular fact about
the Chesapeake bay tcrrapin is that
these ON the western shore grow much
faster than these on the other side West
ern shore tcrrapin, it is stated. viii grow
about two inches year, while those
found on The eastern shore Will grow only
three-quarterS Of an inch in the same
time. The generally accepted theory is
that the water Oh the western shore of
the bay is less salt than OH the other
side and is more conducive to the rapid
growth Of terrapin.-New York Tribune.

LETTERS PROM PRESIDENTS.
Discovery of a Valuable Collection in
an Old New England Town.


an Old New England Town.
There has lately been found in q town
near Bridgeport, Conn, valuable collec-
ton Of old letters Of nearly century ago,
among them several of George Washing
ton, Andrew Jackson. Daniel Webster,
Henry Clay, James Monroe and John
Quincy Adams. The letters were found
among some old papers and books belong
ing to one of the Oldest families in the
state and are in the best condition, al
though they have been stored away for
nearly 100 years. The Washington letter
was written to a Connecticut member of
the family when the general was with the
army on the Hudson river. and pertain
to the probable movement of his and the
enemy S troops.
The letters of John Quincy Adams
ana Andrew Jackson are peculiarly inter
cstlng as they are both written to the
same friend, on the same day in March,
1874, and each asks the common friend
TO say what he thinks the chances of
Cach are for president. This was in the
days when the president was elect
cd III the same count as the President
inc one receiving the greatest number of
votes being chosen president. Each asks
ms correspondent what he should do
when elected and how he should act to-
ward his friend apd rival. The Jackson
letter Is also very valuable and is one of
the most characteristic letters in exist
ence written by the general. The find
has made quite a stir among antiquaries
IN the state and all the old trunks and
libraries are being overhaued to find
others OF the same kind.-Boston Tran
