 REGULATIONS FOR THE SALE OF LAND. 
 
 The Cunipany are preparetl, until further not'ce, to sell lands U'l 
 agricultural purposes, 
 
 . At the price of $2.50 [lo/- ster.] per acre. 
 
 one-sixth payable in cash, and the l>alaiice in five annual iiistalment>, 
 with interest at six per cent., a rebate for actual cultivation beinj; made as 
 hereinafter described. 
 
 The ordinary conditions of s.ile are ; — 
 
 1. That all imiirovements placed upon land purchased shall remain thereon until 
 liiiitl payment fur the land has been made. 
 
 2. That all taxe<, and assessments lawfully imposed upon the land or improve- 
 incMts shall be paid by the purchaser. 
 
 3. The Company reserve from selection at the above price all mineral, coal, or 
 wixxl-lands, stone, slate, and marble quarries, lands with water power thereon, and tracts 
 for town sites and r:iilw:iy purposes ; and, as regards tandx having some standing wood, 
 but not hereby e.xcUided from selection, the puruliaser will only be permitted to cut ii 
 sufTicient quantity for fuel, fencing, and for the erection of buildings on bis l.uid until 
 he shall have received the final conveyance thereof. 
 
 4. The mineral and coal lands and quarries, and the lands controlling water pow<?r, 
 will be disposed of on very liberal terms to persons giving satisfactory evidence of 
 their intention to utilise them. 
 
 5. The purchaser will lie required, within four years from the dale of the contract for 
 the pui,.hase of the land, to bring under cultivation, and sow and reap a crop on one- 
 h.tlf of the said land, except when otherwise expressly agreed and declared in the 
 contract by reason of any specLtl obstacle to such cultivatirm. Dairy farming, or mixed 
 grain and dairy farming, to an extent to be agreed upon, will be accepted as the equiva- 
 lent of cultivation, entitling the settler to the rebate. 
 
 6. A credit of $1.25 (5s. stg.) per acre will be allowed for all land so cultiviited dur- 
 ing four years. 
 
 7. A reservation of lo^j ft. in width for right of way, or other railroad purposes, 
 will be made in all cases, 
 
 8. If the purchaser of a section, or part of a section, being a tona fidt settler 
 resident upon the land purchased, or upon an adjoining section, fails to carry out in 
 their entirety the conditions of his contract with respect to cultivation and cropping, 
 within the specified time, the Company reserve the right, in their own option, 
 to diminish the quantity to be conveyed to him, under his contract, to such extent that he 
 shall not be entitled to demand a conveyance of more than double tlie quantity culti- 
 vated and cropped, the quantity which he may so demand not to exceed one-half of 
 the quantity mentioned in his contract, and, if not exceeding 160 acres, to be taken in 
 the quarter section in which the greater part of such cultivation and cropping has been 
 done ; or, if in excess of 160 acres, then such excels to be taken from an adjoining 
 quarter section ; and as to the portion of the laud contracted for, which the Company 
 shall decide not to convey to such purch.-iser, his claim to the same shall be forfeited, 
 and such portion shall not be conveyed to him by the Company : and tl.ci-cupoii the 
 price shall be adjusted as if the contract of sale had originally been made for the por- 
 tion actually conveyed to the purchaser. 
 
 The object of the foregoing clause is to prevent the Company's landi from falling 
 into the hands of speculators to the disadvantage of the actual settler : but, »« 
 respects bona fidt settlers, the purpose and aim of the Company is to aflbrd them every 
 possible consideration and facility,' 
 
 9. Special contracts will be made for tracts exceeding one section, for settlement 
 purposes or for cattle raising. 
 
 to. Liberal rates for settlers and their effects will be granted by the Company over 
 its railway. 
 
 II. The land grant bonds of the Company will be received at 10 per cent, pre- 
 mium on their par. v.iliie with ai crued interest, in payment for lands, thus further 
 reducing the price of the l.ind fc the purchaser. 
 
 For further information, apply at the office of the Company, Bartholomew Place, Lon- 
 don, England: to John H. McTavish, Land Commissioner, Winnipeg, Manitoba, or

 CLIMATK. 
 
 The summer mean i^i 67'' 76', which is al>out the same as that of the 
 Slate of New Yurk. The mean winter temperature is almost precisely 
 the same as that of St. I'aul ami Montreal. The weather durint; the 
 winter months l)eing uniformly clear, dry and ')racinjj. The atmosphere in 
 winter is very l)riyht and dry, and the sensation of cold is n<.t so unpleasant 
 as that of a temin/raturo at the free/ing point in a humid atmosphere. 
 
 Manitoba and the Northwest Territory ofl'anada are olTicially de- 
 clared to Ix" " amoni; the absolutely healthiest countries on the ylolie and 
 most pleasant to live in. Endemic diseases are unknown. 'I'here is no 
 malaria." Very little snow falls on the prairies, the average depth l>eing 
 about eight to ten inches The snow goes away ancl ploughing begins 
 from the first to the List of .April. The summer months are May, June, 
 July and .August. Autumn lasts until November, when the reguhir frost sets 
 in. I larvest takes place in August. 
 
 SOIL. 
 
 1 he soil is a rich, deep, black argillaceous mold or loam, resting on 
 a deep and very tenacious clay subsoil. It is among the richest, if not 
 positively the richest soil in t!ie world, and siwcially adapted to the growth 
 of wheat, oats, barley, rout cro])s and grass«-s. Analyses l>y learned 
 European chemists and the ex]H.Tience off.irmers have established this fact. 
 All the cereals grow and rijH-n in gif.u abund.ince. The wheat giown is 
 very heavy, b.ing from 62 to 66 jiounds jK.-r bushel, and the average yield 
 as leiriied from statistics gathered by government is 26^4 bushels per 
 acre. The soil is so rich that it will not endure the addition of manure for 
 years after the first breaking. 
 
 PRODUCTIONS. 
 
 The average wheat crop of Maiutolia and the Canadian Noithwest 
 is 33 jier cent greater than the aver.ige returns from the best of the 
 American wheat growing States. The official returns for the reason of 
 18S1, as publi^hfd by bradstieet, show that the total priKluction of wheat 
 in the United .States and Territories was 368,962,000 busiiels, a littU mere 
 t hit n half the CI '-^ luhuh may be J" ihnni J on the uimis cf thi' Canaiiian 
 J\uijic kaihi :y in a single year. According to the same authority the 
 average yitdd }xt acre in the principal American wheat producing Stales 
 was as follows: Illinois, ""S bushels per acre; Ohio, I2'8 ; Michigan, 
 10-5; Minnesota, Io'i7, and none over 15 bushels j)er acre. Official 
 reports from stations on the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway and from 
 other points in Manitoba, including NViniiijjeg, Emerson, Otterbourne, 
 Niverville, St. Boniface, Stonewall, Meadow I.,ea, I'ortage la Prairie, 
 Argyle, Balmoral, Clandelxjye, Cooks Creek, Dynevor, Greenwoo<l, 
 Parks Creek, Peguis, Foxton, Springlield, Assiniboine, Archibald, Bea 
 consfield, Blumenort, Burnside, Campbellville, Crystal City, High Blutf, 
 Holland, l.orne, Oak Point, Ossowa, Pilot Wound, Pomeroy, Poplar 
 Point, Prosjiect, Richmond, Reinland, Wellington, etc., etc., show an 
 average yiekl of 26,^ bushels per acre for tlie season of 188 1, For the 
 same season and in the same Territory the average yield of oats was 45 '4 
 bushels, and barley t,"]}^ bushels to the acre. 
 
 HARKETS. 
 
 .\ very important question to the farmer is the distance from the farm 
 to a market for farm productions. This question, so far as it relates to 
 the Canadian Northwest, the Canadian Pacific Railway Company are 
 solving by the erection of elevators at different points on the line of the 
 road, thereby as-uring to the producer a pi'rm.-xncnt market for grain 
 where he may always receive the highest markrt price Other farm pro- 
 ductions willalways command a ready local niaikct. The dem.md for lieef 
 cattle for dairy products and for horses is always fully ecjual to the supply. 
 HCNTINO AND FISHING. 
 
 As fish and game are plentiful throughout the Province of Maii.t> ' .i 
 .ind the Canadian Northwest, it would he (Jilhciilt to iniiicate which, if any, 
 pa:ticular locility has the preference. The lake (d' the Woods, l.ake 
 Winnipeg, l.ake Manitoba, I^ike Deception, Slioal Lake, and the innu- 
 merable streams ■which feed them, the Ut-d, Assii'iboine, Saskatchewan, 
 Scratching, Nelson, Souris, and other rivers, together with their tliousands 
 of feeders, are ahve with fish, inclu<ling whiteti^li. pickerel, pike, catfish, 
 sturgeon, rock bass, bl.ick bass, suckers, perch, suiitish, gold eye, carp, 
 etc., etc. The whole country from l.ake Superior to the Pacific Ocean is 
 the abode of game of all descriptions: Prairie chicken, duck (d'all varieties, 
 wild geese, crane, snipe, swan, partridge, pigeons, pheasants, meadow 
 lark and plover. BufTalo, cariboo, moose, elk, deer and antelope are 
 found in different localities.

 FARMING AND STOCK-RAISING LANDS. 
 
 STOCK RAISING. 
 
 Maiiitolta and the Canadi&n Northwest is destined lu 1>e one of the lead- 
 in),' siuck-raising countries in the world. Its illimitable prairies are 
 covered with luxuriant and highly nutritious grasses of which there arc up- 
 wards of fifty varieties, a large proportion of which are excellent for gra/.ing 
 purposes, cattle preferring them to cultivated grasses. Horses and cattle 
 thrive well the year round. Although it is now more than forty years 
 since sheep raising was first introduced in the neighlM)rhoo<l of the Red 
 River, these animals have never l)een attacked by disease. Cattle raising 
 is already being prosecuted on a large scale in certain ])ortions of the 
 Northwest Territory, the Martjuis of Lome, Governor-* ieneral of the 
 Oominion of Canada, having on his recent tour throu;,'h the country 
 reported several large droves lictween Edmonton and the Rocky Moun- 
 tains and one drove nuniliering 7,000 head at Fort Calj,';uy. Cattle 
 raisers who have in the past wintered their herds south of tlic boundary 
 line are now driving them into the Northwest Territory where the grasses 
 ate more nuiniioiis, and the water, which alniunds everywhere in this 
 country is remarkaljly pure, A very prominent feature ofthe cat tie ranges 
 of the Canadian Northwest is tlie facts that very little snow falls, thus 
 allowing; catile to graze throu},']i t!ie winter. Recently a good deal of 
 stock of approved breeds has l)een brought into Manitoba, and, as it has 
 flourished as well as native stock, fancy stock breeding will in the future 
 t)c among the most remunerative pursuits. Horses and cattle ofthe linest 
 breeds always find a ready maruet in Manitoba. In connecti<jn with 
 stock raising, dairy produce will always find a renumeralive market. 
 Heefand butter packing also fiouti h; and in this coiinectKin it may !«: 
 stated that iht' salt springs which exist in various parts of tlie country, 
 yiehl nearly a bushel of salt to thirty-tive gallons of water, and is fully 
 ecjual to any produced in Kngland, America or Canada. 
 
 Fleeces from sheep grown in Manitoba are as a rule heavy. The 
 freedom from disease, which is doubtless due to a great extent to the dry 
 nimos])here, is accountable for this. 
 
 WOOD AND WATKK, 
 
 'A'ood and water are among the essentials to settlement ni all coun- 
 tries, and the facts ill regard to these two necessaries of life a.i they exist 
 in Manitoba an<l the Canadian Northwest, will Ix; required by those who 
 Contemplate making their homes here. Wood and w.iter are both plenti- 
 ful from the .\tlaiitic to the I'acilic Ocean. All that vast region sur- 
 rounding the I.ake of the Wooils, along the banks of the Red, Assi- 
 niboine and Saskauhewan Rivers, and in many places far removed 
 from the jirincpal lakes and rivers of the country, wood for build. ng 
 purDoscs and for fuel exists in great ([U.iiit.li'.'s. Elder, oak, elm, maple, 
 hard and soft, basswood, Cottonwood, jioplar, white and red cedar, birch, 
 spruce, while ash, tamarack, cherry, lialsam, ash, pine and other varieties 
 are found in almost impeiu'trable groves, and in detached clumps, will. in 
 short distance of and sometimes abutting on agricultural lands. No dilTi- 
 culty has been exi)erienccd by settlers, nor is likely to Ijc, on account of 
 fuel or building material Water is founrl everywhere in the thousands 
 of lakes, in the many rivers and streams, or by l)oring, in abundance and 
 ofthe best quality. Where it is found necessary to dig for water it can Iw 
 found without fail at a distance of twelve to twenty feet. When once 
 found there is assured forever afterwards an unfailing suiiply. There are 
 also thousands of r.prings scattered throughout the country and these may lie 
 utilized for domestic purposes. 
 
 CHURCHES .\Ni) SCHOOLS. 
 Among the denominations represented in all parts of the Canadian 
 Northwest are the Episcopal, Metliodist Episcopal, Methodist, Presl)y- 
 terian, Congregationalist, Itaptist uiul Roman C"atholic. The Dom- 
 inion Government has set apart two sections or t28o iicres of land in 
 each township, the procee<ls of which, when s(dd are to Ik- applied to the 
 establishment of good schools. The system of education is that of separate 
 schools, and the grants of money are equally <livided according to the 
 numl)er of children in each section, as ascertained by annual census. 
 
 toil.. 
 Coal is found for upward of joo miles above FdiiiDiUon and for some 
 tlistance below that point. Coal has also Ik-cii <liscovered on the Souris 
 River, and every indication points to tlie f.ict tliat coal wdlb- found here 
 in large quantities. In the Arthabaska district and along the I'er^b'na 
 River, one of its tributaries, millions of toiu of c<ial await develo])emi ,)t, 
 and with it the assurance that coal mining will in the near future K- aiu'ing 
 the principal sources of revenue to the Northwest. It is a well-known 
 fact that the coal mines of liritish Columbia have long lieenthc principal 
 source of supply of San Francisco and the Pacific coast.

CROP REPORT. 
 
 Season of 1881. 
 
 [From the Montreal Gazette, September, 1881.] 
 
 CROPS IN THE NORTH-WEST. 
 
 No better agency for promoting emigration to the Canadian 
 Northwest could be desired than the report of the condition of 
 the harvest in Manitoba, which has recently been issued by 
 the Canadian Pacific Railway Comjjany. The information 
 therein contained is in no way rose-colored or exaggerated — it 
 has been gathered by postmasters throughout the Province, by 
 personal enquiry among the farmers — and it is valuable as 
 being the first comprehensive and reliable report of the condi- 
 tion of the crops in Manitoba which has ever been issued. In 
 forty-five of the sixty-eight parishes from which returns were 
 received, the number of acres under cultivation, the gross and 
 the average yield, and current market prices are given, and of 
 them we make the following synopsis : — 
 
 Wheat 126163s 3-45^.475 28 80 cents 
 
 Oats 68,128 3,521,770 56 56 " 
 
 Barley 14.036 560,560 40 60 " 
 
 Kepreseiiting in sterling 3<. jil., .".. .t<l., 3s. 51!., respectively. 
 
 It will be seen from this synopsis of reports received from 
 every section of the Province, tliat the average yield of grain 
 — 28 bushels to the acre — is extraordinarily liigh ; much higher 
 than is obtained under similar ( onditions in the United States. 
 The reports give a fair idea of tiie si)lendid results of farming 
 in our Northwest, and the rapidity with which the virgin soil 
 is being brought under cultivation. 
 
 QUALITY OF THE GRAIN. 
 
 The following certificate sjjcaks for itself: — 
 
 \Ctrtificate from the President of the Corn fixchiinf^e, Afcutreal, as to the 
 excellent i/ualitv of Mitnitoha grain.] 
 
 MONTRKAI., January 17, 1882. 
 I have txamined samples of grain grown in M.initoha, submitted by 
 Alexander Hej^fj, of the Canadian I'acific J<ailway. 
 
 'ITie samjile of I'ife wheat is specially good, and N'o. I hard, which is 
 the quality of wheat now so much sought after by millers. 
 
 The barley, white and black oats, peas and Iwans shown, are all of 
 very superior quality, and would command very high prices in thi? market.

 ■Sir Ali:\iiuiier Calf s Opinion of thi Canadian A'orth-Weit. 
 
 Sir A! 'x. r (ialt, in liis aildress in F.nyland on the subject of the Canadian 
 Nortl.wjst, f^ave in a condensed form a complete review ofthe entire question 
 of settlement. Me -..ii 1, after referring to his visit to theNorth-West : 
 
 "The district west and southwest of \ViiH.i()efj is that which most 
 attracted my attention ; and it is impossible for me to sj>eak too highly of 
 my intpiessionsof its fertility and l)eauty. 
 
 '•It is impossible within the limits permitted by this general report 
 to -.iiecrify the features ofthe country which I traversed for upwards of five 
 hundieil miles. With some very trifling exce|)tions the soil is of remark- 
 able fertility and easily worked, evidenced by a most abundant harvest, 
 prin'jipally of wheat and oats, then in course of harvesting. The settlers, 
 though at present sparsely scattered over the prairies, with one accord 
 stated their contentment and belief in the country ; while the rapidity 
 with which churches, mills and stores are arising afforded the Ijest evidence 
 •ftlie progress and success ofthe settlement." 
 
 \l''.x'rait foiH Ihi' spf.xh of [Jon. yames B. Peck, of Kentucky, Jelirtreii 
 in III: I hi ih'ii States Senate, Tuesday, jfanuary lo, 1882.] 
 
 " The re|wrt ofthe Canadian Commissioner of Agriculture shows that 
 they have in Manitoba over two hundred million acres of wheat-produci-.g 
 countiy; the reports ofthe individual farmers show that their yield of 
 wheat varies from twenty-five to 50 bushels per acre, weighing from sixty 
 to sixty-six pounds to the bushel. Their great Pacific Railroad will 1)e 
 finislieti to the Pacific Ocean as soon as our Northern Pacific Railroad will 
 be, aj»d the trade of China, Japan, Australia, and the Indies will pass over 
 it It is nearly completed to I^^ake Sui)erior now ; thence the products of 
 that country pass through the same chain of lakes ours has to traverse, anc 
 Fort William is as near Huffalo as Chicago is. Their now enlarged Welland 
 Canal overcomes the obstruction of Niagara, and ther line is shorter b) 
 rail through Montreal to Liverpool by (jver six hundreil miles than any rout 
 we can take to get the wheat of Dakota through New N'ork to Kngland.'
