TO ADVERTISERS
THE COST OF TEXT 1390KS.
Tho public are being misled by the
statement that the coat of eoheel
readers luta been pormnaently reduced
by the prevent Gaverntneut. It is true
that after a oonnnisaion had made in-
quirtee sudor the prceont (government,
of whioh eommiesion Mr. J. A. Cooper,
present editor of tbo Cenadlan Courier
was the practical man, the Government
honed an anuouucemorit that after it
year and a halt from that date the old
Ontario readers would cease to ba cuth'
orized. Then the Department adver-
tised for the publication of the Ontario
readers (luring that year and a
belt, but it did not follow the speoifion-
tiona and requirements set out in the
advertiBement, but gave a contract to
the old publiahora, who hada largo
stock of thee() books on hand at a low
price, to furnish the readers for that
year and a half, The old publiehere
found th'oinseive8 iu this position, that
they had a heavy stook on hand and
unless they got a contract tale stook
would be dead waste. By getting the
contract, they, during the year and a
half, ooald work off all readers on hand,
in a ready or semi ready etato. Hence
the prices new being paid are prices on
the breis of a remnaut sale and not
permanent. Mr. Cooper, a Coneervntive
in politica, in the Canadian Courier,
speaking of the reduction in prices, says:
"This reduotion in price may last one
and a half years What will happen
tllon is only c. matter of ool:jeoture.
The probability is that if the new set of
readers is prepared and the printing and
binding brought up to date, the pride
will go btok to the old price if not high.
en" So that when the whole truth is
stated and tho facts fully understood
the deception praotioed in this ory of
cheap Ontario readers becomes gaite
apparent.
"That this convention ondoriree the
catudidature of Rev. De. DJnaid 0, Hos
sack," was the rosolation carried by
Nortel Toronto Liberate, amid a scone
of splendid political outhustaem, and
the man who wrote the famous letter
of 1006 and who wrote another equally
famous letter a few drays ego accepted
the responsibility. He spoke for about
twenty minutes, but that speech will
long be remembered by those who heard
it beoeuse ot Ito login, its boldness, its
optimism and Ito iudepondence. Dr.
Hoseack censured the 0, N. R guar-
antee and the Larose grant, supported
a moderato degree of pnblio ownership,

Few of ua realize how much influence
we impart to those whom we meet on
life's journoy, nor the acts this ic-
flaence will suggest, says a writer in
Kamm farmer. While we are just an
atom In the universe of thing°, yet we
aro n0ceeeary to matntetn the eqaitt •
brium of nature and each life is a part
of the great whole whioh comprises the
consoione part of existence. This earth
is the plane of our being, and each not
and deed is a potent force building
and moulding oouditions for all lite to
oome. How mnoh have we absorbed
filtered through generations, of the
sweet and noble spirit, the manly
courage and indomintable •will, the self
denial and eaorifioe, the exalted patience
and continued hopes, the desire for
truth, honor and virtue? Have these
been the legacy willed to ns from out
the past by those who banded better
than they knew, or have the ripples of
malice, hate, envy, greed, lust and dis-
honor entered the gateway of life and
manacled the soul?
Iu making a comparison between
crop conditions and prospeots with the
spring of 1899 the Farmer's Sun says:
The present spring is muoh like that
of 1899, save in one particular. In
the winter of '98 9 much of the fall
wheat ground was left baro of snovr
during the time of n very hard freeze,
and in a large portion of the Province
00 per cent and upwards of the fall
wheat had to bo plowed up in the
spring. Spring seeding was also exceed-
ingly late, aomo of the beet farmers
near Toronto not beginning until the
and of April, and in litany oases not tin -
Ming until the middle of May. Fail
wheat that your was a notable failure,
the average yield of the Province beiug
13 iy buahols, and the whole yield only
a little over half that of the average of
the previous two years. This year fall
wheat has come out in good condition,
but spring seeding is quite as Tato as it
was vino years ago. Comfort may
this year be taken from tho foot that
although fall wheat was such a failure
in '99 other crops were in that year
rather better than usual. Spring wheat
was fully up to the average, while bar-
ley and oats wore two or three bushels
above the average, and peas well above
the average. Fall wheat, will certainly,
bales° a blight strikes it, this year give
n full avorago, and if spring grains do
as well as in the late Ronson of '90 this
year's harvest as a whole will be better
than usual.

The remarkable Increase In the value
BRIBING ACONSTITUENCY.
11
(Toronto Star,)
At Hamilton Premier Whitney said
that his Government would not at-
tempt to bribe the constituencies.
The man who bribed an individual
is a tyro in sin compared with the
briber of towns. This is sound doc-
trine, ani while it is satisfactory to
hear it preaohed it is still more im-
portant that it shall be practiced. At
a meeting held in Now Liekard last
week Mr. Lennox, the Whitney candi-
date in North York, told the electors
that it they wanted large grants for
Temiskaming, they must vote for the
Government. "It does not make
auy difference tote old riding like
mine,". said Mr. Lennox, "for there
is nothing for us to got. Are you
going to say to Mr. Whitney that
you do not approve of those large ex-
penditures on oolonizatiou roads and
other public improvementa-that they
ought to be withdrawn. There are
members of the Conservative party
who think we are spending a great
deal of money rap north, and they might
welcome a Liberal from a northern
constituency as exereesion of opposition
on the part of the north. Oould you ex-
pect that the Government is going to
give as large grants to Mr. MoKelvin,
who would criticize everything that
they do? Do yon think that the Gov-
ernment is going to tee as liberal to a
conetituenoy that opposes it? Will Mr.
MoKolvin 'have the same weight as
Mr. Shillington? If you send a Liberal
you will not get as large a grant as
you will it you send Mr. Shillington."
It in in New Ontario that there is
the greatest danger of bribery of con-
stituenoos by wholesale. Natarally
and inevitably there are larger expen-
ditures of public 'money there than in
the older parts of the Province. The
people look more to the Government,
and have closer - relations with Gov-
ernmental oilloiale, who wield a power
that may 1 ecome tyranutoal and mire
ohievous. All the more reaeou that
the expenditures should be made fair-
ly and impartially, and without ref-
ereneo to the one whioh the eleotore
choose to make of their franchise.
They have a right to vote as freely
as an elector of. Toronto. The grants
to whioh Mr, Lennox refers ate not
gifts from the private fortunes of
hir. Whitney and kis oolleaguee, but
money derived from the public re-
venues of the Province, the property
of tho people. Bribery is bad enough
under any circumstances, but the of-
fence it aggravated when the money
of the people Is ailed for corrupt pur-
poses.

These aro the days when the genus

tremolo and take owe more to the road.
Willing enough to except the shelter
of a jell over the winter months, the
tramp insists upon hie regular all sem •
mer holiday jaunt to and through the
oouutry. Deprived of the joys of rid-
ing the bumpers, counting railroad ties,
star gazing from the ',top of a sweet -
scented haystack bed br arguing points
of law as to mem and teem with
far-
mers' dogs, and life to,the tramp would
not be worth living. No people follow
more literally the aoriptural injunction
to take no thought as to food, drink,
raiment or the day after, and few people
are as care worn. - -
General report kas it 'that the tramp
will .be numerous this summer. This
is bad news. Satisfied as he may be
with himself and his mode of living, he
is a nuisance and pest to everyone upon
whom ho forces hie acquaintance.
Sympathy bestowed upon him is wasted
indeed. The greatest kindest that could
be done to him would b, to discourage
him. This sort of kindness he should
get in the largest possible doses from
every police officer, police magistrate
and judge in the land. Canada is a
country bf workers, and there is no
noom in the hive for the drones. Un-
like the bees we may not kill, but at

There should be plenty of room for
them all on the jell stone or wood piles,

Chabot is one of the best all round
plums 1 grow; fair size, good, firm
flesh, fair to good in quality. The best
can be sold for eating and the rest
cleaned off for sauce or canning, as the
market demands. All the above are
yellow in flesh and when well grown
would be classed as red or pink.
Satsuma is a plum of a different
type, poor as an eating plum, but
best as sauce; very dark purple, with
(lark red flesh; a first class keeper. In
1835 we received this variety direct
from Mr, Burbank. We had trees
grown from that stock which proved
quite satisfactory and profitable. Later
we bought a few hundred trees from
au eastern firm, and they have never
paid and have proved quite tender in
tree. We shall in the future plant
this variety only in limited way.

The Flavor of Butter.
Butter (hoes not keep indefinitely, but
undergoes deterioration due to severat
distinct changes. The first of these itt
simply tile disappearance of the pe-
culiar delicate flavor and aroma which
are found in fresh butter, This takes
Place very rapidly, and even within a
'few days after butter is made there la
a very appreciable falling off In the
flavor of the butter. The explanation
of this is doubtless that the flavor and
aroma are due in a measure to volatile
products which pass off from the but-
ter with , considerable rapidity. .This
effect, however, is not very appreciable,
end the butter for a considerable time
remains of a high quality, though not
quite so delicate in flavorasat first. -

Currants and Gooseberries.
The new growth of currants and
gooseberries should be stopped when
it reaches a convenient height in order
to induce the formation of side
branches and thus increase the area
of bearing wood. This is much more
important than would at first appear,
because the fruit of these plants Is
borne upon fruiting spurs welch de-
velop from wood two or more years of
age. On the other hand, the renewal
of the bush Is not only necessary in
order to maintain It against insect
pests, but to insure a supply of fruit
bearing wood to take the place of, the
old wood which it has become un-
profitable to maintain. -L. C. Corbett.

FARM BREVITIES. a
The progressive farmer who has his
work all planned out for days or weeks
ahead finds that he saves both time
and labor, as a rule. Isis easy going
neighbor who makes no plans in ad-
vance never has things ready for work
when the time comes that a job sbotild
be done and therefore is a loser.
When cabbage and cauliflower plants
are set out the soil should be tightly
pressed around the stem of the plant
at the surface, and the soil itself
should be pressed down smooth. fiat
and firmly as one means of protection
against the root maggots.
From the breeders' standpoint 'rec-
ords are especially valuable in assist-
ing in finding customers for their stock.
Many buyers insist on seeing records
of dairy performance before purchas-
ing.
The dwarf lima beans because of
their habit of gro'th are planted and
cultivated practically the same as are
field beans. They are slightly' hardier
than pole limas, and for tbat reason
toward the northern limit of the range
of this crop it can be planted somewhat
earlier in tg-e season than the pole
limas.
On many farms if the garden be
fenced off, with wire netting, say,
about four feet high the chickens can
then nave practically the run of the
land. With persistent fliers tho clip-
ping of the flight feathers on one wing
will generally keep the birds on the
ground floor.
In placing labels of any kind on or -
Chard trees it is best to place them at
about the same corner on all the trees,
say on the southeast corner about four
feet from the ground. The foliage of-
ten hides the labels unless one can re-
member just where to look.
Pasturing, especially during the first
,
year,
injures 8 an1 sometimes
kills al-
t
falfa. In nutritive qualities alfalfa
stands in the front rank. Cattle and
sheep sometimes bloat when grazing
on alfalfa.It is said to make an nn -
rivaled hog pasture, and when fed to
farin teams the ration of corn can be
greatly diminished.
The feed is responsible for the health,
growth and flesh of poultry. Young
chicks aro often overfed and usually
fed An, filthy places or to unclean
trougheor vessels. More young chicL-e
die from overfeeding and emir, fer-
menting, decompoeing feed than from
• tttij�.
