An agricultural writer in the New York
Herald says: "Time was, and within the
memory of those not very old, when mit
pork with patatoee and bread conatituted
the staple diet of fermi= in nearly all parte
of the country. Only excessive hard work
could rnake such diet at all endurable.
Thus two evils offset against each other,
and made life in the country poseible,
though Lard and disagreeable. Much of
i
this s changed now. Farmers are not
obliged to work ao hard with their bands,
at least, as they did before labor-saving
machinery took the brant of toil from the
toughest jobe. • With leseasevere labour and
greater care and thought required., it btamt
possible for farmere to live on pork and
potatoes. Fruit to progressive farmers is
not a luxury ,but a nocesaity. It should
constitute a considerable parr, of the sum-
mer diet. For the women and children
plenty of fruit has always been a necessity.
Now that the health of husbands and
fathers depends upon an abundance orfruit,
it is to be hoped that setting out plantations
will not be neglected.
.
Some great changes have just been made
• In a single night in Parliamentary. proced-

mosphereofthe chamber. • Other reforms of
a practical bearing have been made Whilst

had spent a charming summer, so far away

Eugenie was. too pretty and successful a

buts to be hoped that Lady Dufferin's ear-
ly removal from India may not check the
philanthropic project in which she has taken
so deep and womanly an interest—that of
supplying female medical aid for the women
fo India. The London Illustrated News
contained, a few weeks since, portraits of
aome of those whom Lady Dufferin has in
training for the work, and also information
in regard to the character and need of the
work itself. All who have any conception
of the extreme seclusion which custom en-
forces upon the women of the East, the ig-
• norant and superstitious practices to which
they are subject, the unhealthiness of
their modes of life, and the extent to
which they are debarred from treatmentby
male practitioners, will .understand how
great would be the blessing, brought to them
by the presence 'amongst them of a supply
of skilled female physicians, nurses, etc. In
a letter received a short time sine by a
lady friend in Montreal Lady Dufferin ex-
plains that the £50,000 asked for for this
project are as yet far from being subscribed,
and intimates that any manifestation of in-
tereet and sympathy from, Canada will be
particularly grateful to her
