Sir,â€"I believe I promised you a few notes on the West when I left Lindsay in August. This I find I will have to do in two or three let- ters it you care to publish them. I know that in writing of the West one should get of! the sterotype let- ter and say something original, but when one says that, he is in the East and forgets that when he comes out here. thereis one thing that one must talk about. that every one else is talking about. and that is. wheat. From the time you legve North Bay ur til you pull into Winnipeg you hear nothing but wheat. wheat. wheat, and if when you reach Winnipeg, the portal of the wheat country, you think that you cannot stand any more of it. you had better take the connectiOn with eVery thing and it “Crops" up at every turn in new disguises and in won- Luu ll'w Iv. A Winnipeg; wakes up in the morning and immediately rushes to the window to see what the maths prOSpects are for the wheat, and if the day happens to be rough even the But certainly wheat is a. nameto conjure with, and if one can judge by signs, Winnipeg owes a lot to No. 1 hard. On every hand there are evi- dences of prosperity, present and to come.- A train disgorges hundreds of laborers, speculators, landsmen and young men out on “spec.” Soon they are lost. in the thronging crowds that fill the streets, and this occur- rence is not occasionally or {recreat- ly. but a regular procession through- out the summer days.

The doctor i’depen- was doing the west in thorough style and was as full of wheat, when ' met him. as an overcrowded grain elevator. In an interview with thq Winnipeg Telegram he made a sug- gestion which should receive very general notice from the eastern press. It was to the effect that every mem- ber of parliament should make at 'eal es. least one trip to the west, so that ' he could get into touch with western ideas and western needs, which lat- private: ter are many and urgent. The doc- Lolesale'tor should bring his suggestion hm It and fore the house and organize a par- for the. liamentary excursnon to the west 'during the next harvest.

Prwently the excursiom’ets would come in and register, join the circle and then quietly and diplomatically the landmen would corner them indi- vidually, talk of the glorious wheat crop and casually mention that “I have a little land for sale up the Prince Albert branch, would you like me to show it to you to-morrow ?” All this. I say. was over a month ago: now the lendmen have multi- plied to such numbers and the far- mer is so well schooled in the wiles oi landmen, that he shuns the affable hall stove circle, to such an extent that when I left Regina it had be- come a positive necessity for the ”boys” to go down and meet all trains. help the farmer 06 with his grips, hand him a match and tobac- able lands, that he has taken a post.- gradugte course in the best means of dlsposmg "of agents. of every sort.
