One pleasure which will be theins for sometime anyway is the freedom from weeds. Frost has been an enemy of theirs but as the land is cultivated oftener, damage from this is diminishing, and they will soon be able to grow prac- tically anything we can grow here. In studying the map of Ontario you will notice that you have just got nicely into the clay belt at Englehart and you can still travel a long distance over the best of ‘farm- ing land, so do not let us get the idea that only in western Ontario is there any farming land. Do not let us think that New Ontario fe like the portion of Ontario up in Muskoka t one cheese fac- situated at Earl- che condition of the roads , they being much bet- r than our average roads here.
