Gall iu souaobodv to put the heat- ing apparatus in order, The farrier who makes a partner of his son usually notices a farmer of him as well. That is, of course, if the boy has eny bent toward agriculture, *s.* The Kaiser will have to do a great deal of kiesing of admirals of his battle fleet before he can open the sea routes to the German commercial fleet. * * The man who is taking good .care of bis orchard and fruit crop thisyear may be a big gainer. The crop, on the whole, is not as promising as it war, and prices may be high. • * « It was quite Sir Sam Hughes' like to start for England without waiting for the verdict of the Meredith -Duff royal ,commission. The Minister of Militia leaves it to his opponents to do the worrying. * * * Sir Wilfrid Laurier says nur first duty is to win the war. Surely that was not meant as $ rebuke to the Lib- eral politicians who met at Ottawa to devise ways and means, not to assist recruiting, but to advance the fortunes of the Opposition. * * * Sir Sam Hughes is a busy and just now is off overseas again. He may have big head but he is a rustler to keep things moving. If he oocasion- ally conferred with others also inter- ested in military movements he would be less liable to the charge of being "it" all the time. He has no easy job we feel sure and the wonder is that he does not flag under the nervous strain. —Brussels Post. * * * Camp Borden Knockers At the present time Camp Borden is coming in for a lot of unfair criticism and condemnation by unscrupuous. friends of the Reform party, as well as by a number of Ontario Reform jour- nals which are deliberately exaggerat- ing conditions and causing an unrest and discontent among the. soldiers, for nothing but purely political nor- . poses, their sale object being to belittle the efforts and noble work of Sir Sam. One incident, the facts of which come from a thoroughly reliable source, was that perpetrated a few days since by the officers on the soldiers. Orders were given one dry, bot morning that the boys should go on parade without their Water bottles, these orders being represented as coming from headquar- ters. . The boys resented this kind of treatment, and that justly,but it was afterwards learned that no such orders had ever been sent from headquarters. Ib was simply another inetanoe of a stab at Sir Sam, and a dirty piece of underhand trickery. Then again a great deal rs said about the grounds at Camp Borden being unfit for the pur- pose for which they were intended. That too comes under the political howl when weighed in the balances, as is evldenced by .the following,— "Capt. H. A. Trainor, Adjutant of the 149th Lambton Batt. stationed at Camp Borden in writing to friends says the new ground is ideal in every respect and the boys could not be loc- ated in a better place. According to Capt, Trainor, the camp is the best in the country if not in the world. The fittings of the camp are excellent, and he declares that it will be used many years as a military camp. Speaking of the air and water, he says they can- not be equalled anywhere." These unscrupulous and unpatriotic knockers seam to bo more concerned in the slander of Sir Sart' Hughes, than in assisting Canada to do her duty as a part of this great Empire. Lieut. R. L Ferguson, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Ferguson of Belgrave, says in a letter written home shortly after bis arrival at Camp Borden that conditions there were only what might be looked for in a newly cleared country and also expres.es his opinion that the camp wall be the best in the world before long, A young gentleman who trained at Wingham, while talking of tbe,,riot said that some of the officers (rot of • the 18lst) Were urging the riotors on.
