A Sower of Wheat. By Harold Bindloss. (Chatto and Windus.

6s.)—A Sower of Wheat is a tale of an emigrant's experiences and adventures in Western Canada. It is pleasantly told in unpre- tentious and unaffected English, and it mingles in readable pro- portions the usual elements of life, love, labour, and character. It is a book to read in a leisurely mood by persons who have not arrived at dependence on strong sensation to stimulate their brains.
