Few instituti9ns of this this kind can show a• more prosperous record than the v1echaeics institute in this village. 'It has now considerably over one hundred members, a first-class library. and a comfortable reading room. The directors have spared no pains to make this institution meet the wants of are iotE IIi;Ient pu.blic.• The greatest care. has been exercised in procuring the choicest literature for the library . auel- reading room. Books on history, biography, travels, fiction, etc., writ~en by the best authors have been care- fully selected. Oonuois,eurs pro- nounce the selection one cif the hest in the province, The reading rooni is courfortalrly fitted up, and with its choice current literature of , daily paper:; illustrated papers, magazines, etc., invites the public to conte in and spend a part of the long winter even-' ings reading that whicheducates and .refines. I t is • earnestly hoped . the people of Lucknow and 'surrounding country will take advantage of this of October we held an Institute m'''eting at Holyrood which was well attended. I will not go into detail as I • have seen a fairly good account of the meet- ing in the SENTINEL ; hut, thinking it would bu of interest to your readers to know who are faking an interest in the work of our Institute, Igive the names of all those that joined the Institue at Holyrood, and while all the director; -lent a helping handl inust thank Mr. Henry Thompson in hi. untiring efforts in urging farmers to become members of the Institute. if our Institue did nothing more ths,n to bring the farmers togethe,,r• once in a while to discuss matters pertaining to their occupation, and discuss their grievances one„ to another, it would accomplish •a •good, work ; but I am certain that if the farmers are true to themselves and live up to the objects of the Institute that we will yet. see a 'grand work done by the Institute. Then, let us lend a helping hand to those who are .willing• to give some tlieir tiine in furthering; the; wnrk of the Its it to iilg are the nettles of those who be-- came e=calve members of S.
