The prospects for fruit-growers in. Ontario could not well be more en- Ioilraging than they are. There is a. lgood set, the- trees are vigorous and} I insect enemies" scarcely seem as num- Eerous as usual. In the Unites States, `on the other hand, the outlook is; jrather poor. .In addition to this, as; `stated elsewhere; the demand from` I the_ Old Country for Canadian fruit ipromises to be unusually active thisi `year. All of which gives added force; to _thesuggestion already made that? Etruit men. instead of relaxing their}. ;efforts, should this year take betteri :care of their trees than-"ever beforel IW. H. Bunting, in a report on the; fruit situation. says: The prospects; at present.. barring a heavy _drop- ping of the tree fruitsvowing tothei . continued dry weather are very prom-`i lising for a large and abundant crop .of all kinds ofourimore important !fruits. with the exception of apples, lwhich. owing to the `unusual crop -of z 1902; will be of only moderate quan-kl tity this season. some varieties and! some localities showing good aver--` age, while others are comparativelyl light, and in some cases none what-l iever. We- are now experiencing 8.! great lack of moisture, and while in] some localities there` have been aafew i showers and heavy ruins of short dur- ation. which have relieved the situ- ation to some extent from many portions of the Province, reports are coming in` of scarcely any rain since the first of April. This fact. coupled . with the heavy `frost early in. May. which did considerable damage in (the _eastern part of the Province. points to amarked scarcity of the: smaller fruits. such as strawberries.` `raspberries; etc. . ~ A l Pantomime Performances. Most . pantomine characters were I originally borrowed from the Italians. i The first real English pantomime was produced at a theater in Lincoln's Inn ` 1 Fields in 1720. It was called Harle- ` quin Executed, and its subtitle was 5 A New Italian Comic Scene Between ` a Scaramouche, a Harlequin. a Coun- try `Farmer, His Wife and Others. Qhepertormance was very successful. About the middle of the eighteenth l century the character or pantomime ; performances was completely altered, \ 'chiey__ because of the genius or the A famous Grimaldi. who made the` clown 3 the rst gure in the pantomime. _Gri- r l maldi rst appeared at Sadler s ,Welln ' theater-, where he played the part not `a monkey. He: was actively engaged - on the stage for forty-nine years,_ and at the closeot his career he took a bene- at at Dr.ury_Lane theater, whichareal-- "ed nearly 600.. He alsolreceived 100 ' from -their Drury Lane fund.` This was 7 in June; 1828. He diedin-1837 and was i buried` in `the churchyard or St. Jame?

I o him it matters not which party. holds power as l_ong_ as. the country is economically governed. As. `Hon. Mr.` gfribson -has said. ninety-nine out or one, hundred questions which came before the, Legislature are not party questions at all.` The same is true of the Dominion Parliament. Even where parties divide it is impossible forthe than of average intelligence to say What is the cause or division. Why. then. should farmers divide as party men? There -is reason` why a machine. party man in town should support this party or that. He expects his re- ward in the form of an office. There is reason for legislation by "which they may profit at the public Vex- pense-corporations, such as the dry- dock companies. smelting companies, etc.-should ally themselves with `a party. They expect their reward in the form of legislation calculated to make millionaires of the few at the expense of the many. But farmers `get none` of the offices; they _get {none of the bonuses; their share con- Esists simply in paying the taxes from Q the spending of which others profit. `There is no reason. therefore. why :they should be. party men at all. At`. `the sa_me time. there is no reason why a farmer who is a member of gthis association. if he chooses to re- ? main a Liberal. or if he chooses to re- imain a Conservative. should not do ;so. He is completely master of his ?own action. All that is hoped for {from the creation of this organiza- tion is that farmers shall be brought jttogether in a waythat will permit fof a frank. and free discussion of ` public matters from a farmer's stand- ipoint to the end that all may come to see that all farmers have a com- mon interest. By meeting together `and talking over among themselves ,the cattle guardquestion. tlle rail-V `way -drainage question. the matter of 1 freight rates. the equalization of tax- `,ation._ and the abolition of subsidies. `farmers must became convinced that `these are the great questions so far gas they are concerned. Then. even if they do remain Liberals they will see that no candidate is nominated by their party who is not right on `these questions. If they remain-Com servatives it will be the same as far as that party is concerned. What will be the eventual result? No -matter which party wins the elec- tion. the farmers cannot lose. This is the policy the farmers of Michigan followed in their Grange. and as a I consequence in Michigan. railways are `paying $3,000,000 a- year more in;mu- . nieipal taxation than they were pay-_ ing before farmers came together in this way. v _ ' lI`__.,_..._...
