The military writer in Saturday's Mail and Empire says :-`-The most disgraceful piece of partizanship ever perpetrated in connection with _ our militia administration was the removal of Colonel W.

We read the other day of the success which had attended a. young man who had the sand to strike out for himself on ~a ranch, or fruit farm, in British Columbia, While his follows in the_ High school and University were pre- paring for. law, and medicine, and di- vinity, he disregarded ' the entreaties of his` family and friends to follow their example and struck out for the West. He worked. his way` up from the bottom, got a farm of his own, and is today," after twenty years labor, in an independent position - nancially and a power in _the community in which he lives. He thanks Providence every day that he `had the good sense`-to brave the prejudice of his caste against man- ual labor _and to gain the reward of in` telligentand rightly directed toil. V T The abolition of the minimum water rate will lead to a greater use of water meters by water consumers, and `the day is probably _ not far distant when the -use-of meters will be made com pulsory. The town will then, and not till then, get paid for the water sup- plied. At present" the abuse of the at rate is quite too cominon, In winter the tap is left open all night to `prevent the pipes freezing up, andin summer the lawn tap is open most of the time to keep the lawn and adjacent sidewalk from getting too hot. oh` man with the ahovel is not I-aenowstorm, or there would be er. and slush on the eidewelkh `present.

Townships bid fair .to teach towns a lesson in roadmaking. Several town- ships have": already abolished Statute hbor, having come to the conclusion that roadmaking is not such an easy task-that any man knows enoughabout it to be an overseer or pathmaster. In towns, as a general rule, it is thought that any man who can drive a team or handle a-pick and shovel, can superin- tend properly the expenditure of a few thousand dollars on streets and side. walks. A A o Andrew. Pettullo, M.t1>.I.,i `who hos introduced an anti-bonus mensufe` info the Legislature, is authority or the statement that an incomplete -return shovss that out of 747 industries in the province no `less than 221 had been- bonused. These industries had ;been honused to an extent of about one mil- lion dollars. Out of 95 towns which had given bonuses to industries more than one-third had failed. The unusually large quantity of ice taken from the bay this year is an in- dication that farmers are waking up to the value of ice in summer dairymg. "They are coming to understand that the lower the temperature of the `water around the creamer, the more complete will be the `separation of the cream; and ice has the lowest temperature. This treatment of milk [will give better cream and more of it, t consequently better nancial `results. The Barrie boys who with when will garrison Halifax will have the pleasure of spending a year in one of the most beautiful cities on the Con-V tinent of America. Halifax has the moat magnicantw harbor on this side of the Atlantic" Ocean and eminent authorities.` have pronounced _` it the finest in the world. The climate is most salubrioua, and the city stands up high and dry, with `deep pure salt water on three sides of it. " l A van pleunt e;a};i;g my 1 .'1_'o CURE A .09LD 113!

A Apples which they would never dream of sending to the Old Country` they think nothing _of sending here. It seems to me that we are responsible for this state of things 'ourselves. We have `been iu`the habit of taking what was sent, paying the price asked, and `saying nothing publicly. Poor apples sell for same priceae good ones.r A refusal to. accept poor apples at all, or to receive them at a price proportioned to. the value of good apples, would soon open the eyes of packers and shippers, and we would soon know what we are getting. If we would do with fruit as we do with dry goods when motheaten or otherwise injured, send it back or take it at'a price` to suit ourselves, we would soon have no trouble about the quality of fruit sent us.
