Only 25 cents a box. s The most remarkable fact, however, in conâ€" nection with the animal was the discovery of the rudiments ota pair of wings«, which were found upon the back, just above the shoulder. Ihave geological examples in the pterodactyls of flying lizards ; but they were Â¥ery different in form and organism from the one we are now passing under a descriptive diagnosis. This animal may hare been the archety pe of the pterodacty!. He certainly hints at Aying, or why these rudimental wings so neat‘y tuckâ€" ed away under the epidermis and the scales? I know, too, that reptiles are found related to the batrachians on the one band, and to the soâ€"called sauroid fishes on the other, and thero were .ltule batrachians in the most ancient days, before man, whose footâ€" prints the delicate wet sand has preserved in indelible portraits. On the left side of the head, just at the back of the eye crypt, there was a group of fiae, almost forhâ€"like, feelers. ‘The upper part of the arms was well packed with muscles, giving the impression of great power and agility. The extreme length from head to tail was preciscly two feet, the tail being one third the leagth of the body. I got one of the men to lift the ® critter" out of the well on the rock side, It took no appa~ rent notice of anything, and a stick thrast closs to its eyes had no effect upon this batraâ€" chian Azolotl which favoured so many other animals in its organization. ; the animal was in tepose it vastly resembled a crocodile ; the tail extending cight inches from the body, and gradually tapering to a point. The belly why covered with large plates of the same substance as that of the back, but thinner and more delicate in texture and colour, being of a bright yellow. The top scales were of a buratâ€"sienua colour, The oyes were #ct in two caverns of horn, which protruded trom this sides of the head as large as beaus, and when the animal closed them, they were protected by a black heary curtain impeneâ€" trable to mud or dust.

Again, The advantages of a prairie farm are too apparent to néed discussion, it being enâ€" iast summer by the grasshopper, and many are nfiR{y dependent upon volunâ€" mx contributions being sent from Canada and other countries, there are many farâ€" mers who have been more provident than the rest in providing against such a calaâ€" mity, and who . are not really in want. Where land is so cheap and plenty, and so easily brought under cultivation, such wants as we are suffering under ought not to exist, What we want is an emigration that will provide for such a calamity, alâ€" though one so direful might never occur again ; for it is over forty years (onl with some exceptions of â€"minor wponnt{ | since this country was yisited to the same extent. f ‘ 1 However, we had the gn.-bo per ;« lat{::r in its worst form. gtill although this country is in t want from the total destruction om crops last summer by the grasshopper, and isâ€"a large tract of unoceupied land well fitted for cultivation between here and Pembina. On the river Assiniboine westâ€" ward, Prairie La Portage to the Rideing Mountain an«. Fort Ellis is the country most fitted for settlement. Plenty of the richest of land, plenty of timber, and the best water privileges in the country are to be found there. The prairie has this advantage for the industrious man with . a ecapital of one yoke of oxen and plough, with four months of provisions, comâ€" mencing the first of June, he can break up 25 acres of land, secure his hay for the winter, and with the sum of £L25 build a house and stable for his immeâ€" diate wants. With this small capital, and with four months labour, he will have a firm to all intents and purâ€" poses equal to one which would rcâ€" quire twelve years of hard toil in the back woods of Canada. In comâ€" paring these privileges with the earl settler of mari- the Muskoka diltriet,{ i would refer to the settler himself in that locality, on the subject. ~And, again, the advantage of plenty of the richest of pasâ€" ture for his cattle is a boon which can be hbad in Canada ouly b{ many years of hard labour. This soil is of an interestâ€" ing nature, soft and adbesive when wet, \gverinu when dry, never bakes hard with the sun under cultivation, and harâ€" rows as fine as the best cultivated garâ€" dens. It has one drawback, a;:!mit is thisâ€"the plough scarcely ever 8 itâ€" self. _ ‘The l::rhilit’i. of this endless prairie for raising crops cannot be doubtâ€" ed. ~After my ten years experience, beâ€" sgides information g{~«l m sources, I can only come to this irresistiâ€" ble, conclusion, that, considering the sysâ€" tem of cultivation mud by the. setâ€" tleres, t;o beneficial : are astonishâ€" ing.

What are requisite for good farming here are a steel plough that will clean itself; and agrain drill that will put the grain deep enough in the ground in the dry spring sowing, so that the growth will be more nni&rm. , The wheat is not subject to as many casualties as in Canada. There is very little milâ€" dew and smut, and no midge, weevel, &c. We have some noxious: weeds, but the Canada thistle is confined to a fow localiâ€" good crops of wheat in succession for over tv;ll:{‘y:au, without m(:nure, with the simple light ploughing and harrowing in the seed.
