Archibald of the Salvation Army for his indefatigable work in connection with the parole system No doubt the great pro blem of dealing with discharged con- victs is of paramount importance and while the parole system is an innovation it is apparently working out satisfactorily Of course it needs to be administered With the utmost discrimination and caution else it would render our courts to some extent abortive and prove a menace to society The public have this guarantee however so far as Canada is concernedi that before it is granted the convicting judge or magistrate and the warden of the penitentiary are asked for a report Then Archibalds opinion is taken before the Minister Justice orders a on parole Should persons thus paroled take unfair advantage their opportunities they are

On tarios DeputyMinister of Agricul ture at the Maritime Winter Fair When our settlers first came to Can ada they faced the primeval forest during all the clearing period the old agriculture held With a new generation conditions began change live stock came large barns were built butter and cheese began to be made and we gradually changed all our methods building the exhibits it contains are proof that we are trying to up with the demands of the times and to compete with other countries by following the New Agri culture Toe Agriculture must con ducted upon business principles In old times it did not seem neces sary to pursue these business meth ods in fact with the surroundings then existent there was no chance to so In our towns and cities the merchant and the manufacturer has also had to change his methods of business The farmer is just as the man in town who makes boots cloths and hardware The manufac turer in town finds it necessary to the kind of goods that the con sumer demands It is also one of conditions today that the farm er should produce what his consum ers want We must Consider what district is best capable of pro ducing and work along that line Grow the craps arid keep the live stock that thrive best where we live The manufacturer must economically Our best saw mills jit instance arc now run with practical ly no waste material even the dust is used One of the best ex amples of economical manufacturing is seen in the great stock yards of Chicago where absolutely every part of an animal is into a matt- product So the farmer must endeavor to convert to a pro fitable use all his products Ho should see to it that there is no land under weeds under fences or in careless cultivation Tho farm er has perhaps in his- operations greater problems to meet than any other manufacturer if he would avoid unnecessary waste The Agriculture must be con ducted upon scientific principles should not today he any ob jection to book farming for the in telligent man can from agricultural paper and books get the valuable experience of other men who have done the work he is trying to do Our people are wisely beginning to lay aside their prejudice against books and to try- to get the best in- J formation from every available source Scientific men have been and are studying and finding out truths about plant growth the con- our soils the breeding feeding of animals the growing of fruit etc and it will pay to J learn what these men have found out The farm work the future will be a great deal more enjoyable In Ontario the fanners arc very seldom referred to as old The intelligent man who watches closely all the results of his work is inter ested and takes a pleasure in it The world has lately found out that the farmer can be benefitted by an education applicable to his business A few years ao in Ontario we first found out that Ihc farmer had a wile and we are doing can for the betterment of the woman on the farm In the past has had a hard life her work has been practically- unending and she has not had the benefit of laborsaving de vices to the extent as her hus band We are trying relieve the farmers vif of all the drudgery pos sible by our system of womens in stitutes and domestic science teach We have also found out that there arc children on farm and wo are inaugurating a movement to try to provide the right of edu cation for these children The home is where our agriculture starts and is nurtured The refor mation of the agricultural home is the start after alt of our New Agri culture a farmer with an inclination to knowledge wife who how to make the best of her opportunities and children gel- ting a rational education awl I care not how poor that farm is it will succeed With these conditions we shall hear no more hay- sec
