That farming is not what it used to be is generally admitted, . . especially by those who madevmoney at it years ago but who cannot do so now, and who are of course the best judges; but we cannot. help thinking that its unprofitnbieucss nowwluys is to be at~ tributcd chiefly to the fact that old methods are persistently pursued under changed conditions. Wheat has, figur- atively speaking, gone to the dogs, but other products bring, one year with an- other, as good prices as ever, while the great majority of the articles that far- mers have to buy COnt about half what they did in the “good old times." Our ~-bjcct. however, is not to write a dis- nuisition on farming, but simply to deprecatc the charge of extravagance brought against the tillch of the soil for their natural wish to enjoy such of â€"lS ATâ€" w.

Will Massey Go? ,of September 22nd says :â€" “ The Massey-Harris Agricultural Implement Co. is talking of going to the United States. ,To a reporter of a Chicago paper H. A. Massey said : ‘ We use little lumber in our manufac- tured articles, the principal material used being steel. pig iron, bar iron and nails. McCormick. of Chicago, and tho Deering Co. also can get a ton of pig iron for $9. while it costs us $16.50 a tonâ€"and this though we buy our iron from the same company. This is be- cause of the Canadian high tarifi‘. Similarly with steel, bar iron, uails,etc. The difference between the Canadian duty and the new American duty is very great, being at least 50 per cent. higher in Canada. Just as $9 is to $16 50, So is our ability to compete with American manufacturers in the foreign markets, so long'as we remain in Canada. We had. I repeat, either to withdraw from the foreign markets or go to the United Statesâ€"and we intend to go to the United States. That new Democratic tariff of yours will benefit your country immensely. By freeing raw materials it will cheapen the cost of manufactured articles both to manufacturer and con- sumer. It will draw to your side mau- ufacturing concerns from Canada who want a wider market and an opportunity to manufacture goods cheaper and more profitably. It is. that new tariff bill which has attracted us to your shores.’ ‘ The Rapid City (Mata) Reporter says the Massey-Harris Company have decided to close their agency at that point." Hon. Clarke Wallace, who. pretends to know more about the Massey-Harris Co"'s business than they know them- selves, scouts the idea of their leaving Canada. as they have numerous patents on their machines and enjoy a consider- able measure of protection .;;- but the fig- ures- given above'show the great advan- tage they would derive from crossing thedines, which, if their language has been, correctly reported. they have ex- pressly declared their intention of doing. It does not, we suppose, necessarily follow that their Canadian factory will be closed if they go into business on a larger scale in the States, but they can- not, under existing circumstances, sup- ply much more than a local demand, while they could send machines, made in Canada.all over the States and across the ocean. if the tariff did not-rise up in its might and prevent them. If the ‘ people. of Canada only knew the bles- sings that would flOW from asncar an approach as is practical to free trade, the strange anomalies and contradictions and injustices of a protective tariff wouldl soon be swept out of existence. The Pulp Mill. The rumor, noticed in last week’s Gazette, that the- pulp mill. here had changed hands proved to be correct, Mr. John. Pugslcy, of the firmof Pugslcy, Dingman & Co.,.having purchased all the land, buildings and plant, both at Napaneo and Fenelon Falls, owned by the Napanee Pulp and Paper Co. The bargain was concluded and the transfer made a few days ago, and; Mr. Pugslcy was at the Falls on Wednesday of this week. The pulp mill has shut down and will remain closedabout six weeks, . , whilea bleach'nv-house rendered neces- unprofitablc an occupation that food and i n " lary by improvements in the processaf' pulp.making,,is beingcrectcd; but the mill bands will not lose any time, as they. will all be employed on the build- ing, which will be of stone, 2,3 x 47 feet, and 24 feet high, with a,wing 18 x..23 fact, and 14rfcet high. The excavation for the foundation is nearly finished, and teams will commence drawing stone from the quarry on Francis street either to- day or to-m_orrow., In addition to ma- chinery, the bleaching house will contain six stone cisterns of the following dimen- sions: three 7 x 7 feet and 6.lcet deep, one 7 x 92fect and 7. feet deep, one 4 x 14 feet and 4 feet deep, and one 4 x 12 feet and 4 feet deep. It is estimated. that the new building and its contents will ecst not. much less than $3,000. Fatal Railway Accident.
