FERRY'S CANADIAN BRANCH. 



The proposed reciprocity treaty be- 

 tween Canada and the United States, 

 which names seeds among the articles 

 for the free list, will have no effect on 

 the plans of D. M. Ferry & Co. for the 

 Canadian branch yi Windsor. Since 

 the destruction by fire of the old D. M. 

 Ferry building, on the Windsor river 

 front, last spring, the company has been 

 occupj'ing temporary quarters with the 

 intention of erecting a suitable build- 

 ing for the Canadian interests of the 

 firm. A lot 90x100 feet, at the corner 

 of McDougall and Sandwich streets, 

 was purchased last summer. Plans are 

 now being prepared for the building. 

 The structure will bo of reinforced con- 

 crete, four stories at least in height. 

 Ground will be broken within a few 

 weeks.
