 I THE GREAT NORTH-WEST. it)\ fhP CUicaso „...„_, Milwaukee and St, Paul Railway Company's Produce Exhibition Car. 1 Cunservatory on WlieeUâ€" The Knergy and Enterprise of a Western RaU- way Which Sends Dakota's Products on an Ex hlbltlon Tour. due ct the moat notable but quiet jn;crpri=t3 for advertisiDg purposes -which joy state or railroad can boast of, naa been (luietly going en in the .,,iast of our )ntario farmers. The Milwau- i^ee and St. i'aul railway company, conceiv- jQff the idea that the best way to surmount the reports of hard winters, blizzards and small crops, was to exhibit to the farmers the class mostly interested) some of the many products which are the pride of THE STATE OP UAKOTA. Xnis vast territory contains 1.^0,932 jniurc miles or 90,500,000 of acres ot the best :arniing laud to be found in North America. It is situated between the 42nd ani 411 :h degrees of north latitude and the i!):h audi!.):h degrees of longitude west of Wasliingtor. The extent of this state is uiore than Frauee and twice as large as i.^rtat iliitain and Ireland. That this ter- [â- itciy hus the most unbounded resources couli easily be set n, if space would admit ot tbeecumuration of us mineral resources, and as well as from the annual report of itspro- ]ucts from all sources. Those figures al- though correct, could not convince any per- smu iii' re plainly than the exhibit made in â- he tii^e large car of the Chicago, Milwau- kee and St. Paul riiilway company, which is ao'A \i-.i'".i;g 'cr the benefit of farmers) the viri u:i towns and cities in Ontario. A brief j".v,rip-ii II of this elegant rildDfCE EXHIBITION CAR may mt be cut of place. Upou entering the car from either end, oae caiiQOt help feeling he has suddenly en- tred a conservatory arrayed in the most .ar- tistic manner, wreaths ot corn, wheat, to- bacLO leaf and many grains and grasses, are woven and interwoven around roof and iiJes, m a thorough and artistic manner, toi;"|iitt3 of all styles made from earth's fruits are scattered around most profusely, until one can scarcely believe he is not at- tondiiig the exhibit of a French school of ^e£;etable cookery, preparatory to the cook- ing process. One 01 the most notable oma- ments in the car is a large bell hung in the centre of the car the lower part of which is made of wheat, corn rye, grasses, etc., and the upper part of corn and vegetables, for a Liapper or hammer, a fine clapper-shaped 'juash is hung in the centre by a blue rib- bon, under this bell a prize in money will be given to the loving couple who will join iQ the bonds of matrimony. .\ KEVr' GOOD THINCS TO SEE. Coru in twelve varieties, including pop •orn and the Dent corn, of which some very nne samples are shown, the Flint corn cobs, measuring sixteen inches in length. Rad- ij.ies 01 the tizs cf large rats and similarly Raped, turnips, carrots and rutabaga in endless variety, the Little Queen, Llother Hubbard, Turbaji, .Scollop and other vari- eties ot sijua^hes. The pumpkin display was very liue, "M having been offered for one sample of sweet pumpkins. In the potatoe iiep:irtn!ent the Eaily Ohio was the most proiiiUKut, not a single potato wii^hed l.'is tiiiiu two pounds, some of them running to three pounas; there were the Snow Flake, White I'.iephant, White Star, Peach Blow, "..irljuDk, Seedling, Western Red, and Vic- tor. Tiie display of gras-es, I'rairie red top, â- n\-.- feet in height, lilue jomt, seven feet m heiyiit, Siough grasses aLd othtr varieties art woven in all directions as well as stand- i^i; iu the sheaf. Sweet pctitoes and tobac- co t;ri'wn at Yanktown, timothy, clover, on- i"n.s of several varieties, including the Wtathersfield, Yellow Denver, Silver Skin, anil Karly Red, some very fine c.trona.water- inelon.s and crab apples. One long, clean lijokiog cotton wood tree, about 20 feet long, attta.ts unusual attention it was planted two years ago from a slip, and ij now 3^ iDche9 in diameter, which clearly shows the speed with which a young plant will quietly increase m value. Some very tine samples o: timber grown from seed are displayed in n.tuy varieties, includiog soft maple, box elder, white a?h, cotton wood, and apple, samples of Okra, Martinua, hops, parsnips, and cucumbers of two varieties. THE GKAIN DI.SI'LAY i.^ particularly tine, both in sheaves and bot- tiec!, and many vaiieties are shown, particu- larly the Dakota, No. 1 hard, Mediterranean •"priag, and other eaily wheat grown around N ankton are very conspicuous. Both black and white oats are displayed, and among the latter are some exceedingly fine samples of Wiiite Russian, Flax seed, buckwheit.rye, barley, peas and berries can be found in an- other department, and also samples of fine, white tljur from Chamberlain and grotindat the mills of J. F. Sisson Cj. Sorghum or sugar cane and broom corn of great length ifccorate th€ roof of the car, and are inter- w6vea with small sheafs of wheat cut at full length. On the bottom of the car are some ^ery fine samples of Sioux Falls granite. The stone is compact and polishea to a high degree and is used in the trectun of the finest structures at St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minn. The finest ela.-s of stone for art work in the collection 13 the conglomerated stone which once pol- ished for table tops, mantlepieces, etc., would become the rage rapidly. The stone from which Indians make their pipes is also hown, and as a curiosity the autograph of I e noted Sitting Bull, written in a plain nool boy hand, also a handsome and carious walking cane cnt on the Missooii river is one of the greatest of curiosities. TLIMATE, STORMS AND BAINS. S3 much has been said in respect to the II zzirds and heavy storms that are claimed for Dakota that a few statistics will not be amiss, and the reader should bear in mind that on account of the fastness of the terri- tory a great difference will be foundto exist between the region north of the 47th par- allel, and that south of it. In southeastern Dakota the climate in many respects re- s nibles that of Indiana, Ohio, Iowa w»d " mthern Minnesota, with a greater number or suLny, and a less nuJiber of ramy days. The summers are agreeable, and Uttle in- convenience is experienced from heat, owing to the praiiie brtezes which prevail donng the warmer months. The fir is pure and lry in summer, clear and bracing in winter, Mid aflbtds ttmukM^ttbftkUk^manSd. lenhg from incipient consumption, etc. i^anal diaeases are wholly unknown. The wmters are not rerere. and the cUmate dar- ing the whole yea^ compares more than TW^K^^u*^*"^•'***«« ^^^^^ mentioned. *rom the tabuUted statement of the signal office at Washington for a period covering b7 years, it is found that not a single cyclone has touched this territory whilst other states and territories have suffered 600 tor- nadoes, particularly in Kansas, M.ssoi^i, Illinois Ohio and Indiana. That this tem- tory has become a favored one for farming there 18 no deubt, and that Canadians have Ik r /* particularly so will be shown by the following returns made in 18S0 • Umted Kingdom and Canada .. 17 571 bcatdinavian countries ' k'skS R^r"!^^!^^.:v.--.::::::;:;;;i:;i:: g All other foreign countries 2^597 Total T^ The increase in papulation in one year from 1881 to 1882, was 43,354. With such an increase in population any person would thmk the answer to all false reports a pretty plain one, for not only has the population of Dakota increased but it is found that under the liberal homesteads and other laws of the United States its "free lands" are rapidly being disposed of. The report shows that of 15,609,848 acres of public lands entered under the various acts during the period above mentioned, not less than 4,- 568,919 acres or nearly one-third were dis- posed of in Dakota alone. Of the total acreage of G. 347,729, entered under the homestead act in twenty-four states and territories 2,187,415, or more than cno- third was taken up in Dakota, and that under the timber act more than one- half of the 2,009,797 acres disposed of were entered ia this territory. The rapid growth of this territory is mainly due to thu energy, en- terpiiseand business push of the Cnicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway Co., which has run its rails in all directions through th- territory, and which does not hesitate to Li un forty and fifty mites of a branch track w^en accommodation is wanted. Par- ticularly is this noticed at Roscoe. The company has a regular emigration bureau attached to its service, and keeps regular travelling agents to attend to the wants of emigrants alone. No person not employed by the company is allowed in or around the company's emigration offices or railroads, and its system of detectives very soon fer- ret out any persons desirous of playing tricks upon emigrants. Mitchell and Aberdeen are the two great headquarters for the emi- grants where the company's offices are situ- ated. The company's produc3 exhibition car has been in Ontario under the direct supervision of M. H. Mercer of the emigra- tion department of the road and Mr. Wal- lace Heiifijrd, Canadian passenger agent of the company. â€" Toronto World, Oct 27th ISSJ.
