TORONTO After leaving Regina and running into the daylight, the trayeller sees great stretches of bleak prairies, buman residences few and far between, and the very few spots that have been cropâ€" ped showing up indifferently. . The prairie is brown, indiceting drouth. Our destivation is Maple Creek, "-ml in Saskatchewan, a place of 800 popuâ€" lation, two banks, four or five hotels, two newspapers, a few fine stores, one of them kept by Coorl Bros.. formerly of Mt Forest, Eight miles from here is Mr Frank Coleridge, formerly of Egreâ€" wont, who for 2} years has been toachâ€" ing and homesteading at the same time, with true Western push, During about a week spent in his hospitable home we. had opportunity to note some of the in teresting peculiarities of a ranching country. _ Here at one time buffaloes roamed in thousands, their trails, their wallows, their remains, are in evidence everywhere, The climate permits of stock being out all winter and flud their own nourishment eyen uajler snow. Provision is made to care for cows, and calves but other stock, especially Lorses by thousands are out ali winter, and winter and summer cost their owners pot one cent for their keep. Only such exceptional winters as that of two years ago, when a bard frost followed a sharp Chinook thaw, miaking an icy coating preventing grazing, was thore serious loss. As we said grain crops were poor, owâ€" ing to hot Chinook winds during the growing period, ruining the hay crop of the prairie, except on the Cypres hills, some 1200 feet bigher than the town. The bulls really a vast platean, get genâ€" erous rains always, and hither this year go tarmers and ranchmen for 40 miles to cut and cure * Bench hay, " to supply the lack in the lower altitude In evâ€" ery direction are seen stocks, mowers, rakes, or loaded teams wending their way home or to town, Some take teuts aud provisions, watcr being found in springs on the bill rides, The hay is no* first olass, among»t it being plants, weeds, flower and serub of various kinds, Attempts are just being made to farm np here, but with doubtful chances, owâ€" Amongst friends we met here were Mr. Frank Carson, an oid Normanby pupi‘, son of Mr, Join Carson of Dorâ€" ham who is pa cuer in the firm of Bowâ€" swell & Carson, and 1s doing well. _ We saw also Allan and Archie MeLean, (sous of the late Allan MceLean.) whose mother lives at Priceville, both getting along fine. _ We wore agreeably uur.‘ prised to meet a nephew, Mr. Jas. Legate, of Ceyion, who is employed at E the large iron works and is a voluutper) member of the Fire Brigade. . Mr. N.| Dunsmwcor and wife (daughter of Mr, W. , K. Reid) we had not the pleasure of | mestizg. _ We called on Mr. R. B. Mcâ€" Lachlan. who lives with Mr. and Mrs, Brace, the latter a sister, and their aged father near Priceyille wou‘ld be delighted to see how well they have fittel into their surroundings. _ By thein we were received with true highiand hospitality | aud to Mr, McLachlan we owed a mos; ing to frost, but there is none here yet. The soil is splendid. Droves, * bunches. of horses, mostâ€" ly unbroken, are seen frequently, Mo«t of the old ravchers are weaithy and the town owes a fine bospital to the generosâ€" ity of a bachelor rancher who, dying, bequesthed $65000 and two farms for that purpose, _ A derrick near the town recalis an attempt to get gas or oil, but, like Durham, they got a flowing well. Not content to look at this they went on boring and knocked the bottom out of well and enterprise, and uow have nothing. The city boasts. one morning parer, the Albertan, and two eyening papers one of which, the News, i« controlled by the wellâ€"known D. McGuilieuddy formerâ€" Iy of Goderich â€" The Albertan is very inâ€" fluential. We were conrteously received at all the offices. Near the station are a number of corrals for Joading horses, cattle, &c., and our train being late, we saw most expeditious loading of cars. _ Here also is a branding outfit, where cow or horse walks a narrow paesige and at a point two binged frameworks close agammst it like a vice, bolding it immovable and the stamping done. On the prairie they baye a rough aod reedy way of branding by throwing the beast, and bolding it by horses and man. In u field near by was a * round up ‘" of horses, must have been thousands, riders on wellâ€"broken horses, surrounding them keeping them in a flock like so many sheep, Not bronchos, by «ny means, but fine lookâ€" ing avimals. Calgary is composed of South Grey people and some others numbering in all about 20000,. _A fine city on a peniaâ€" sula made by the junction here ol the Bow and the Eibow riyers, which gives rise to a local conundram " Why is Calgary like a meid in her loyer‘s arms?" " Because she‘s between the Bow (beau) and the elbow !" Mer streets run north and south. her avenues eest and west, avd the stranger finds Ins way easily, At the end of last century there was about 4000 population and it can be seen how great bus been the devyelopment. A large Normal School seyeral elegant public «chools ; fine churches, &e., testiâ€" fying that the mental and moral progress is keeping pace with the material. Her business biocks, residence«, post office. four fine fire halls. 7 or 8 elegant bridges all bespeak the hnstling weetern city. No fewer than 27 mmles of sidewalk were lvd down in 1907, and a steam roller is making fine work of the main thoroughâ€" lares, The C,P. R. have about 40 acres of land near, which they interd to plant in trees. _ What this couniry needs is forestation and the goyernment gives every eucouragement. Passed Medicine Hat in the night but there seemed to be beautiful station surronndings _ of trees and flowers. Neariog Calgary, though still in a rancshing country, are seen fields of fine looking grain, and close to the city the C. P. R. bas inauguration irrigaion works, which give promise of great results. In a Ranching Country. pleasant drive throug? 199 (""J 0 m a, magnificent yview of it fom the blaff to the north and st other poinbs, Mr. Bruse is a prosperous contractor, Mr. McLachlan is more than husy in bis own line as carpenter and builder, The latter is also an enthusiastic Oddfellow and bis warmâ€"hearted seryices in the interest of sick and visiting brethren are wmatters of comment. _ He is also A member of and Librarian for the famons choir of the Presbyterian Church here, promounced by Sir Frederick Bridge, Organist of Westminster Abbey, at the close of his recent organ:zed , tour, the best in the Dominion, barring none. We thank them again for pleasant memories of Calgary. On the way north to EAmonton we cou! not pass Innisfail, the post office of Mr, Wim. Melivride, in whose home we spent a delightful evening reminisâ€" cent of olden times. _ He bas taken up homesteads for himself and som in the led Deer district and being the first in that fine wheat area had «plendid chorce. He bad some serious bail and stock losses this year, but will come out well with both hbay and grain crop. A» might be expectedl from an old dairy man be has 10 fancy cows and plans for a factory im his ‘pnew location. His brother Andrew, south of Calgary we learned was in beiter health, and prosâ€" pering also. The chief talk in the«e two provinces ut present is in regard to preâ€"emption, & chance to bona fide homesteaders t> secure more land at a nominal price and the fact that they must preâ€"empt teâ€" tween 1st and 1loth Sept. adds «pice to the raca. _ Americans as well as Canadâ€" ians are seizing the opportunity and goverpment offices are busy. 6 Buggy Whips from toc to Buggy Rugs and Lap Rub "bundance.
