One of the mn. interesting and most likeable men in Canada was the late' Dr. James Fletcher, Dominion Entomologist and Botanist, Ottawa. ! | Ottawa was his home at death, but a great part of his busy life was His aim in life was to find out facts and | to make these facts known to people to whom they would be of use. He | used to say that one-third of the crops raised in America were destroy- i ed by enemies of one kind or another, and it was his business to help the | farmer to distinguish his friends from his foes, and thus to save part | of that lost third. At first the western farmer thought | him a harmless faddist, but the day came when they wired for him to | come to help them save their crops { from insect or weed enemies.

The Peterboro Examiner'says: That | there are diamond mines in Ontario | has been stated, but the fact is! known only by one man, and that man is O. 8. Ferguson, who has for| the past five years conducted a tin | on Hunter street. To have | something in the neighborhood of five | hundred real, sparkling diamonds in | his possession is the good fortune of | Mr. Ferguson, and an Examiner repre- | sentative the other day was shown several of these precious stones. They are are at present mostly in their raw state, only two having been finished, | and are ready to be set in a piece of | | jewelry. They shine very brilliantly | | and are fine samples of this precious | stone. The unfinished ones are just as they were found, some being very small, while a number of them are | as large as a quarter of an inch in diameter. That they are diamonds, | Mr. Ferguson has satisfied himself. | i the | knows, | tario sixteen years ago.

"His discovery of | the costly stones was, strange to say, | not while making any search, but at | a time when he little thought of find- | was, | ing such things. One evening, at] sunset, he said, after he had finished his work, he stood for a while watch- | | ing the crows picking up the little | stones that, to him, presented a bright and glistening appearance. He picked up several and kept them, | deciding to find out if they were of | any - value. They were evidently | washed out of the ground by rain, | Mr. Ferguson stating that he found | them all on 'the surface, never hav- | ing to tarn a bit of earth. The dia- monds in their raw state, resemble | very much a piece of alum. The land | on which they were found has never | | been known to grow anything and it | "is quite rocky and rough. | About five years ago, on, the occa- | sion of a visit to Cobourg, the great | prima donna, Madame Albani, tried to purchase the diamonds from him. | She was giving a woncert there and | during her stay in the town learned | of his possessions.
