Thanking you for past favours, The Fcnelon Falls Gazette. Friday. September 11th, 1891. The Rainy River District. Yesterday morning Mr. James Dick- son, P. L. 8., left for the Rainy River district, where he has to follow in the footsteps of less illustrious predecessors over a couple of townships and inspect their surveys, which will keep him away from home about three months. This reminds us that the Hon. A. S. Hardy, Comissioncr of Crown Lands, lately took a trip through the same district, which. he says, was “ a revelation ” to him, there being a stretch of nearly 80 miles of farm lands between Fort. Francis and the mouth of Rainy River along the Canadian bank, which apparently does not contain two miles of broken or un- tillable land as seen from the river. The strip varies from ten to thirty miles in width, and the land is not. only of u".- paralleled fertility but is very easily cleared, as the timber is nearly all of second growth, the stumps of whiCh rot in a short time. Mr.‘ Hardy's report tallies exactly with what is said of the region by Mr. Locking, one of the first settlers, who has more than once sung its praises through the columns of the Globe; and it' Mr. Dickson, upon his return, gives as good an account of it as we expect he will, we shall conclude that it is about as likely a locality as there is in the Dominion for farmers in want of homes to find them. The land - is free grant, there are no summer frosts, the wheat yields from 30 to 40 bushels per acre and other grains in proportion, and there is room enough for a popula- ' tion of at least half a million. School Books. The public. schools opened on Mon- day of last. track, and even. yet the semi- annual growl at the cost. of books for 'childrcn is in the air. as all its readers probably know by this timeâ€"is not. as ardent an admirer of .our school system as tens of thousands ’of thoughtless patriots are or pretend: to be; and if there one thing more than another that causes disutisfaction with the system, it is the endless and oppres- sive outlay for new books which it no- cessitates. Even supposing that they are sold at as low prices as they can be, which We doubt, they are so. numerous that the expense is a Serious burden gupon men who have small incomes and large families, and every examination passed by a girl or boy is the subject ol grief as well as of congratulations.
