The following from a North Dakota paper will be read with sorrow by friends and relatives here. _ Deceased was a son of Mr. Malcolm McGilliyray, formeriv of Bentinck. McGirutyRAÂ¥y.â€"At his residence in Bathgate township on Saturday, April 25th, 1908, Duncan McGillivary aged 40 years. of blood poisoning, The funeral seryices were held at the Baptist church on Monday the 27th inst, Rev.

The attendance to pay last respects to Duncan was very large considering the almost impassable condition of the roads. Friends from Hamilton, Cavaâ€" lier, Neche, and other neighboriug towns were in attendance and heartâ€" felt were the expressions of sympathy. Mr McGillivray was born in BHenâ€" tinck township, Grey Co,, Ont., in 1868 and removed with his parents to this country in 1878 and resided with them nntil a few years ago when he moved to his present place of resiâ€" dence and took up farming for himâ€" self. His illness was of caly a few days duration and he passed almost imâ€" mediately from a state of robust health, being one of the finest speciâ€" mens of physical manhood in the county. He was of a retiring disposiâ€" tion and popular with all who «new him ; a kind and loving son and brother, an honourable and otliging neighbor. The community was deepâ€" ly stirred by his untimely ending and the mourning father and brothers and sisters have the sympathy of all.

An article in the May " Review of Reviews " by Miss Laut, a custured trayeller and writer, makes wonderfnl reading, eyeu for Canadians, A summaay of Canadian growth Miss Laut puts into one short paragraph. Less than 2.00C miles of railroad twentyâ€" five years ago has been changed into 23,000, The total output of gold then did not exceod $50,000.000. Now more than $100,000,000 has been taken out of the Klondike alove. In 1851 Canada‘s total trade was $34,000,000. Toâ€"day it is over $550,000,000. In the same year our population was under three million. Now it is atmost seven, _ Manitoba‘s population was 18,000 in 1851, Toâ€"day it is little short of 500,200. Northwest land sold twentyâ€"five years ago at $1.50 an acre. Toâ€"day minimum prices range from $6 to $10, In 190o85â€"only five years agoâ€"Manitoba wag, proud of raising 47,000,000 bushels opwheab. Her record now is 87,000,000 bushels. as dercribed by Miss Lmut is of the higbhest quality. For the rest, while ‘care is necessary, it is well to rememâ€" fber that men as well as wheat will be tranusformed in the land of long suuâ€" dight. R:ferring to the excellen:e of the wheat from the Nerthwest she points out that it is the long sunlight of the north that makes Canadian wheat turn into whiter fiour and beiter bread than any other wheat in the wortd. What long suulight can do for wheat is told in Miss Lauts story of soft wheat sent up from Kansas twelve years ago to Fort Verâ€" milion, & little fur post on Feace Miver, between 55 and Go degirees north. It came too late to be plaoted in the fail. Sown in the following spring it gaye a bard wheat barvest of mom fiftyâ€"fiye to sixty busheis .n acre. _A year ago Kanâ€" sas asked tor samples of the same wheat frow the north and it went back hard spring wheat, * a species literally made over by the iong sunlight of the north.
