this second article of a series j a mcclure tells of leaving his ontario home and going west on a harvest excursion in the early part of the century as i look back now to the 1890 s i can appreciate the present and see the past in a jdiitcrent light as time believe there has been a cer tain percentage of people born to pioneer even animals have that instinct lake musk rat and bca ver b when their slough or runs get too thickly populated we some- times find young muskrats hiking across dry land in search of a better home they have no map or compass no newspapers or letters from other rats to tell them of iosj crowded territory that is why robins and other birds do not all try to build nests in one tree the mother bird will even push the young ones right out of the nest when she thinks they ought to fend for themselves and if they do not attempt to fly they simply go plunk to the ground and then they are at the disadvantage of having to start to fly up rather than down of course all birds all muskrats and all people do not emigrate but of all life seems destined to move on and leave room for others how crowded the old country and even ontario would be by now if some had not had the urge to go out and find a new slough a new den a new tret or a nw country to conquer and build up ji our own what we pioneers did was no fault or credit to us we simply did wlut had to be done now for sonic of the things- that decided mc to move on and try for a better we took the train to winnipeg and stayed there a few days the oity was full of harvesters waiting to move on to different parts of the west and as most of the boys had tickets right through into alberta they all wished to go as far as they could on their tickets railway offi cials advised us to get work in manitoba and hold iwicr our tickets to go on later the manitoba har vest was several weeks earlier than in the new districts most of the fellows had started with a liberal supply of eats from home but by the time we got to winnipeg it was all gone this cre ated another situation from winni peg west we were not the only train of harvesters that had passed over the same road in fact some excursions often bad three sections travelling this meant the prob lem of all these hungry men getting food along the road and all getting up to the tables before the grub ran out the train did not always stop long enough for all of us to get fed the engineer would blow the whistle twice and if all hands were not aboard they went on anyway those who were left had to wait for the next section occasionally half a dozen could not waiflong enough to get up to the cashier to pay for what they ole well 1 remember i hrge pile of t5 or 40 loads of long ioltwood from to 6 inches in diameter ind 12 to 10 feet long i w is put to w
