Excerpt from An English Farmer in Canada and a Visit to the States, Being Notes and Observations by a Practical, Farmer and Commercial Man on Canada as a Field for British Capital and Labour In the following pages the author has endeavoured to give a faithful picture of the present condition and future prospects of Canada, Britain's Premier Colony. As a practical farmer he made it his business to investigate during an extended tour through the Dominion its agricultural possibilities, from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. It has been his object to fully describe the essential difference between farming in this country and in Canada, and he trusts that his hints will prove of solid help to those who would live by the plough in this portion of Britain over the seas. He has endeavoured to convey a fair idea of the great opportunities that the vast natural resources of Canada offer to the man capable of working with both hand and brain.
