INTRODUCTION.

This first attempt at a cheap and popular Directory, it is hoped, will be received with every

owance for partial inaccuracy. Every effort, that time and opportunity would permit, has been

kde to produce a correct publication that would form some clue to the condition of the Section of

inada embraced. The object being two-fold, viz : to serve the local Commerce and Trade of the

ction —and next, to satisfy those at a distance and Emigrants in particular, that however this

ction of the Country may hitherto h:ive been passed over in the general rush to the West, yet there

no portion of the Province, which at this moment is in a more prosperous condition than that em- aced by the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville, and Lanark and Renfrew. The latter em- aces the whole of the Upper Oltawa District, to which, of late, Emigration has been mainly rected. This work will go free by post to any part of the Province for a few cents above the pub- hed price, and for the small sum of 7^d. to any part of Great Britain. With all its imperfections ere is, as yet, no work which can give the intending Emigrant half so much information as a local irectory, specifying all the Trades carried on, and the Religious and Educational Provision made for

Inhabitants. The success of this work mainly depends upon general circulation, independently of

\\ support, and to this the attention of the public is urgently invited—in the hope that those who

'ly think it cheap at Is. 3d. may be induced to distribute copies amongst absent friends both in

out of the Province—both at home and abroad.

Well begun is hair done.

'rbcautions.—To prevent contracted hoof and ring-bone, let the shoes of every horse be removed at least every five weeks, and, where there is a tendency to hard dry hoof, once in every three weeks, and the ,opped at night with cow and horse droppings in equal quantities, softened aud moistened with far- t 1 and tar. Neglect of the feet during winter is the main cause of lameness from ring-bone, Ac. so .ient in Canada.

FEBRUARY. Wilful waste makes woeful want.

Precautions.—Cattle stalls must never be floored upon sleepers unless the space between the ground and he floor be completely filled up with concrete and stones, so that no cold air can come through the floor. »uring the great cattle disease of 1856, the loss was frightful whenever there was a draught of air from

etfeath the floor ; but where there was no other floor but the bare ground well bedded, the loss was compara- vely small.

6 MARCH. Muck is the mother of money. Precaution.—Cattle kept on straw during the winter without grain or roots or even hay, cannot profit- ably regain their condition until late in the spring. A plentiful supply of roots is within every farmer's reach. Carrots, mangold, and turnips may all be safely used now, and will ensure a much earlier return from the dairy ; and early lambs will weigh one third more if ewes are well fed at this time.

Hoven or Blown in Cattle. — Causes.—Repletion upon green food, especially in hot weather. The animals, engaged in devouring food from which they have long been deprived, forget to lie down. The paunch gets overcharged and incapable of expelling its contents. Remedies.—The enema, an instrument that may be safely used in the absence of a farrier. It consists of a syringe to which a tube is attached which is passed through the animal's mouth into the stomach. There is a side opening or valve in the tube, out of which all the offending matter is pumped. If no such instrument be at hand, paunching must be resorted to. Punc- ture the^ maw with a sharp penknife between the haunch-bone and the last rib of the left side, to which the paunch inclines. The air will escape from the paunch through this puncture, and the animal's life be saved. The cud will again be chewed. A stimulating draught of hot ale should be given, the puncture plas- tered up, and diet be sparing for a few days. Internal Remedies are not so certain of cure as the above. Dr. Wyatt of Edinburgh cured eighteen out of twenty cows by a pint of gin to each. Oil may be poured down, and is very useful, as it condenses the air. Salt and water made into a strong brine is commonly used. New milk and tar — l-6th pound of tar to 5-6ths pound of milk—is highly spoken of. This is the most dangerous disease with which the farmer has to contend, as there is no guarding against it. A defective fence may ruin a whole herd, as well as the crop it was intended to protect. No district should be without an enema and probang being kept for immediate use, and Farmer's Clubs in England are usually provided with these and similar instruments for the common use of their members. See " Loudon's Agriculture," Longman & Co.

Well-apparelled April on the heel Of limping Winter treads.—Borneo and Juliet. Precautions. —Eruptions of every kind, whether in horses, cows, sheep, or swine, may be prevented by the timely use of the remedy, curry-comb, and clean bedding ; and may be cured by using the following simple which may be had at a trifling cost from any chemist, and is probably more effective than most of the quack patent medicines sold at three times the price: Camphor 1 drachm, sugar of lead half a drachm, mercurial ointment 1 oz. If mange exist, the following is an effectual ointment: Sulphur vivum 8 oz., arsenic powdered 2 drachms, mercurial ointment 2 oz., turpentine 2 oz., and lard 8 oz. Mix well together, and dress daily in the morning until well.

Precautions. — Choice of Seed. —Farm seeds may be had at reasonable pricey by any storekeeper, as well •s garden seeds, by the ounce or pound. It is better to use seeds obtained in Canada from an importer, than to use the American box-seeds, for the following reasons :

1st. Because it is much cheaper. The same money will buy four times the quantity of seed ; and thus the farmer can prove by resowing whether the fault be in the seed or the season. The ordinary paper packet contains so small a quantity, that there is nothing left for resowing in case of failure. 2nd. Because no respectable importer will send out any but seed true to sort, and fresh and genuine. A great deal of box-seed is spoilt, not only from age, but from long exposure to stove heat, which is destructive to germination. 3rd. Because the best descriptions of really solid cattle feeding roots are only to be obtained in the British market, except iu certain special cases, where American growers raise seed for their own immediate connection.

Gates.—Every field on the farm should be entered by a good self-shutting and self-fastening gate. A proper inclination in hanging will secure the former requ s te, and a good latch, properly constructed, the latter, ach field should be numbered, and the number painted on the gate-post. Let the farmer who has bars instead 'gates, make a trial of their comparative convenience, by taking them out and replacing them without stop- ing, as often as he does in one year on his farm, say about six hundred times, and he cannot fail to be satisfied hich is cheapest for use. Am. Reg. of Rural affairs.

JUNE.

One hoe in time is worth nine too late.

Precautions.—Apple Crop.—Caterpillars can only be destroyed by the hand : all attempts to destroy by blasting with powder, smoking with sulphur, &c. are insufficient, injurious to the young bud and leaf, and needlessly expensive. Let the trees be climbed by boys and the nest clean picked off and carefully destroyed. Choose wet weather and the nests will be full. Poultry Hatching.—No advantage ensues from allowing any kind of bird to sit upon a great number of eggs. In an artificial state, most birds lay a great many more than they can hatch, consequently a great proportion are addled. From 11 to 13 eggs are quite enough for any kind of poultry, and a turkey can cover no more than a bantam, as the eggs are proportioned by nature to the size of the birds. Turkeys, geese, and ducks sit 30 days, and hens only 21 days.

8 JULY. One thistle left to seed may raise 10,000.

.Prbcautiohs.—Mowing thistles and every description of weed before blossoming is the only way to prevent their seeding, short of eradication, which is not practicable at all times. Experiments have proved that the fecundity of most weeds, if not of all, is past conception and calculation. It has been remarked that Canada and the States suffer much more than Great Britain from weed, mainly on account of the practice as to mowing lor pasture. The best hay in England is made from pasture cut while the blossom is being formed ; too much bay in Canada is made after the seed has ripened, —hence a great encouragement is incidentally given to weeds, in addition to the neglect from any attempt to destroy them before they seed.

Precautions.—Fire Insurance should now be effected. Agents are to be found, as will be seen by the Directory, in every town and important village. Misdescription of risk invalidates every policy. Great care is requisite to ensure accuracy, so that the Office may have full notice of the actual risk to be covered. To ensure at a low rate under a misdescription is the worst economy. Read carefully the policy and its conditions.

Horned Cattle.— The natural duration of life with the bull and cow, may be stated at upwards of 20 vears. The cow is often useful with her milk, to the very latest period of life. The vigor of the male does < last more then 12 years. The age may be known, in a certain degree, by the rings on the horns, but these c frequently obliterated by cattle dealers who shave the horns. At 3 years of age the button is formed on horn, which, afterwards, becomes a ring, and an additional ring is added every year. Count three years fir the first ring, and one year for every additional ring. 10 NOVEMBER After Summer evermore succeeds The barren Winter with its nipping cold. -Shakespeare.

Precautions.—Preparation for winter is now the main business of the farm. Cellars for the storage of roots should be kept open as long as safe, but made ready for being closed against frost, without trouble or delay, and tan-bark or manure be at hand for immediate use, cattle sheds and stabling be repaired at once, and the flooring secured against draughts from underneath.

Horses, The ages of, are known by their teeth, but the nicety is such that without explanatory plates, it would be difficult to define the differences, beyond stating that at eight years of age the horse is out of mark. The teeth are all filled up, the nippers are plain and the tushes round and shortened. Notorious dealers both make horses appear older by drawing the early nippers, and thus make a colt pass for four years old. And younger, by hollowing out the teeth, after they have been filled in by nature. The latter practise originated with a man called " Bishop" hence it is called " Bishopping."—See Youat on the horse.

CARLETON PLAC E.—County of Lanark, Townships of Beckwith and Ramsay, being divided by the Mississippi River. A station on the B. & O. Railway, 47 miles from Brockville, 20 from Perth. The lead mines situated within | of a mile of this village are extremely valuable and only require good management and economical working to ensure their being worked with large profits.

LYNi County Leeds, Township Elizabethtown. Station of same name at the G. T. R., half a mile from the village, which is 6 miles from Brockville. No place on the St. Lawrence has exhibited such marked improvement within the short period since the Canada Directory was issued (1858). Success has attended the enterprise of Messrs. Coleman, to whom the village is mainly less indebted for its prosperity. In addition to the trades enumerated, no than 10 persons are engaged in the shoe I

trade. Coopers, tailors and others have established themselves. The stores are equal in appearance, and as well si ocked as those in many old towns of greater pretension. A new mill and several houses will be added in the course of the summer At the same time adequate provisions has been made for religious services. The Free Church, the Wesleyan, and Episcopi

Methodists have each a station ; and the Church of England has also weekly service, a large sum having been subscriber

j towards an English church, which will shortly be built. The methodists have two churches, one of which is an attracti /«

J feature in a village, which, from its picturesque beauty and situation, is destined to rank amongst the handsomest and moss,

prosperous in Canada. The Union Sunday School equals the Common School in the average number of scholars ; in bot! toci the average exceeds 80 ; the population being about 500.

PEMBROKE.—County Renfrew, Township Pembroke. A rapidly growing place on the Upper Ottawa; 52 miles from Arnprior, and 87 from Ottawa City. The contemplated Terminus of the Brockville and Ottawa Railway. This is the Depot from whence the provisions for the lumber-men are principally drawn. Hence in winter the market here often surpasses that of any place on the front. This is of importance to all who contemplate settlement in the Ottawa District, which no longer suffers from its inland position, and where lands are still to be obtained by direct purchase from the Crown, at a nominal value. For success attending the settlers on these lands see " Scbastopol." The summer communica-

tion by steamer, from Aylmer up the Ottawa River, is direct and economical ; and in winter the journey is easily got through, expeditiously and economically, by sleigh. Excellent Tavern Stands (offering every accommodation) are to be found throughout the whole distance from the City of Ottawa and Arnprior. The completion of the Railway throughout is in immediate contemplation.

R E N F R E W.—County Renfrew, Township of Horton, 1st and 2nd Concession. A rapidly growing place ; tho terminus of the Ottawa and Opeongo Road and 6 miles from Ferrall's Landing on the Ottawa—on tho Banks of the Bonnechere and 9 miles from its confluence with the Ottawa. There is an excellent trade done here, and in consequence of the activity of the Lum« ber trade business has been comparatively brisk during the Winter. Renfrew publishes a Paper the " Journal." Scarcely 12 years have passed since the Village was planned, and it is understood that the successful Pioneer of Renfrew is again engaged in founding a thriving settlement further inland in the Township of Sebastopol. The Trade in Potash made in the new Set- tlement is large, and the best clue to the condition of those Settlements may bo taken fromthe Imports and Exports at Gould's and Ferrall's Lauding on the Ottawa, nearly the whole of which are the produce of or consumed in Renfrew and district.

S E B A STO P OL.—County Renfrew. A Township 25 miles west of Renfrew "Village. Much misconception prevailing as to the condition of the recently settled districts on the Ottawa and Opeongo Road, a larger space than usual has been allotted to this district, as forming matter of general interest. Without laying too much stress upon the fact of new land generally being free from wheat disease (for it is generally admitted that rust and midge are attributable to continued cropping with grain and cereals,) the exemption, if it be to continue, depends in a great measure upon the system of farming that will be here- after be adopted. The table of products extracted from the " Toronto Old Countryman" proves that aproper rotation of crops may be pursued, as well as establishes the fact that the land is " neither poor nor inaccessible," as sometimes represented. " We will, however, give still further details, to prove the occupiers of the Free Grants have not been idle, and that their labours have been repaid." FREE GRANT ROADS.

SEBASTOFOL—SMITH'S FALLS. 3T

To disguise tho hardships of early settlement, or to assert that tley have aU hoen removed by roads, Ac., would be equally fallacious and absurd; but after a personal inspection of some of the very recent settlements in the Upper Ottawa District, and a partial intercourse with the settlers, it seemed clear that their condition had advanced in a far greater ratio than that of many in western settlements of 25 years standing. There is really very little difference between some settlements on the

shore of Lake Huron, at the back of Orillia, and those of tho Free Grants ; although the latter has only been settled say 3 years against 25. Sebastopol is not only " not inaccessible," but within 31 miles of the Ottawa, which at once secures the Monti eal market for potash, &c, while the lumber trade of tho district produces a home market for every other farm production, whereas the lumber trade on Lake Huron is comparatively valueless. The following description has been com-

municated : " The Ottawa & Opeongo Road, upon which Free Grant9 of land are being given by the government, passes through this Township. " It contains some excellent farms, and the land, generally, is a fair average for farming purposes. At about 28 niiles from w Renfrew is the residence of Mr. French, the Crown Agent for granting the Free Lands, and also for the sale of the adjoining Township. Mr. French is also Postmaster, the Post Office being named Sebastopol. Immediately opposite his residence " is the hotel of Messrs. McDonald & McDougall, where excellent accommodation for travellers can be had. A good store has "also been opened at this spot, at which produce of all kinds is taken in exchange for goods. This place, with its Crown Land " Office, store, hotel, and Post Office, already presents the nucleus of a village. A school will shortly be opened here. At and " in the neighbourhood of this embryo village the following persons reside." (The list has been classified for insertion). Crown Land Agent—French, J. P. Donohoe, John.

SMITH'S FALLS .—County Lanark, Township El msley. An increasing place on the Rideau, and on the Ottawa 4 Brock- ville Railway, now open to the place and to Perth. It is the diverging point of this Railway to Perth 12 miles, and to Frank- town, Almonte, Arnprior, and Sandpoint, for the Upper O.tawa. The latter portion of the Railway requires very little to complete a junction of the St. Lawrence at Brockville, and the Ottawa River at Sandpoint, with a continuation to Pembroke also in an advanced condition. Cossitt's Fanning Mills are heie manufactured on an extensive scale, and various mill and agricultural castings may be obtained at the Foundries, as well as stoves, &c. Distance from Brockville 28 miles by rail and SI by road.
