Canada Atlantic.—The filling in of the big ravine at the Rideau yards, Ottawa, is about completed. The filling in of this patch of waste land increases the area of the yards by about 40 acres, as before the work was done the land was too low & swampy to be of any value. (Aug., pg. 235.)

The Co. is doing considerable building in Ottawa. A three story wooden building is being erected at the foot of Elgin street for small stores. A large 2 1/2 story building is under way at Ottawa East, to contain the general stores, mechanical office, instruction office & men's dining room.
