• NOTES AND COMMENTS
Goderioh Signal ;-"The Christian
• Guardian up to date hasn't shown any
eVidence a increased editorial vigor
under the new management -in fact it
is rather the other way." As usual
the Signal is drawing upon his imagin-
ation, possibly owing to the Guardian's
favorable mention of Mackenzie Bowen
as Premier. The new editor has not
yet taken the chair.

Dairying is one of the leading Indus-
tries in Canada. The exports of cheese
alone brought into this country in 1893,
$13.400,000. During the season of
1894 the value of the exports of cheese
will largely increase this amount. One
million seyen hundred' and twenty-six
thousand and fifty-eight boxes of cheese
have been shipped from Montreal, an
increase of 43,112 over the season of
1893. The prices paid have averaged
as high as during the past few seasons,
being sufficient to leave a handsome
profit to the farmer and to make dairy-
ing the most profitable branch of agri-
culture.

Only the latter half of the old-fash-
ioned benediction -"A Merry Christ-
mas and a Happy New Year" -is now
left to us. The guests have come and
gone, the decorations are giving signs of
withering and corning down, and the
normal and healthy habit of the digest -
lee po wets begins to assert itself. The
people who came to • Exeter to spend
their Christmas have gone back
again, and .haye met, halfway, those
who went to the old. homestead to pass
their holiday in the midst of old friends.
It is plain therefore that New Year
greetings are quite in order. We fall in
readily with the prevailing fashion, and
wish to all and sundry "A Happy New
Year,"

Bread is increased in price, not so
much by the baker's greed as by the
effects of the credit system. People
Who pay for their bread have to pay
not only • for themselves but for
hundreds of others who eat without
Settling for their loaf. Bakers let
miebomers get into their books, then
allow them to go in deeper in the hope
that they i11 finally work out. When
these people get to the limit of their
creche with one baker they change to ma
• another and repeat the process, The de
ceet of the loaf to cash eustomers must see
cover the baker's profit and his bad pie
• debts. These bad debts represent tire

leforteatEAL, Jan. 2. -The Bank of Mon-

office in St. Johus. The annoancement at
this fact will infuse confidence into the
eommercial community oi the island, and
the report of the determination of the
bank authorities has already exerted au
influence for good. It is not necessary to
say that iu taking this seep the Bank of
Montreal has no intention of obtruding
upou the disordered state of the finances
of the colonyegie arraugin,g for the taking
over of the liabilities of the suspended
Union and Commercial Banks, or of mix-
ing up with the party warfare which has
been so rampant there. • The agency is to
be established as a simple matter of busi
ness, just as one mighbe located in any
party of Canada, and its business will be
conducted upon exlactly the same prin
ciples as govern the operations of its Cana-
dian office; .
This will bring into still closer and more
satisfactory • relations the commercial
intercourse between the Island and
Canada, the United States and Great
Britain and image assist appreciably in the
promotion and enlargement of the trade cif
the colony. A staff of Montreal Bank

The new Premier has received the
offer of knighthood from Her
Majesty and there can be no doubt
that he will accept the honour.
If any man in Canada, by maim of
his services, is entitled to recognition
by Her Majesty, that man is cereeinly
Sir Mackenzie Bowel'. Sir Mackenzie
has been sixteen years in the Dominion
Cabinet, during which period he has
performed very arduous duties. But
he has not restricted himself to Canad-
ian affairs. His part in bringing about
the Colonial Conference was pro-
minent. That assemblage of statemen
from all querters of the Empire was
attributable entirely to Sir Mackenzie's
Australian mission. The circumstance
that every one of the Antipodean
Governments could not be reached
during the trip suggested a meeting at a
later period; and a meeting developed
into one of the most remarkable of
British gathering. Attended byerepre-
sentatives of all thegreater self-govern-
ing colonies, ft became really an Inter -
colonial Parliament, devising measures
for the unity of the Empire and for the
consolidation of 13ritish strength the
wprld over. The conference, besides,
was acknowledged to be the forerunner
of a series of conferences of a like
character, whose influence upon the
Empire will be great, Sir Mackenzie,
by his connection with the colonial
gathering, became something more than
a local statesman, and for this reason,
if for no other,deserved to be honoured.

According to crop bulletin No. 45
of the Manitoba Agriculture Depart-
ment just issued, there were 1,010,186
acres in wheat in 1894, which produced
17 172 883 bushels, or an average of
only 17 bushels to the acre. The Nceed
vember bullebin of the Ontario.Depart-
meat of Agriculture gav9, Aide area in
wheat, spring and falloein this Province
at 1,009,008 adreselnd the production
29,5_414W-Kshels, or an average of
2078 bushels to the acre, The oat crop
for 1894 in the same Manitoba bulletin
is given at 41.3,686 acres, with total
yield of 11,907,854 bushels, or an
average of 28.8 bushels to the acre.
The Ontario bulletin just quoted gives
the number of acres of oats at 2,330,766
acres, with a total of 70 801,825 bush -
or an. average of 30.4 bushels to
the acre. It will thus be seen that
during 1894 the wheat area of the two
Provinces was almost the same,but that
Ontario produced 3,368,976 bushels
more than Manitoba, owing to a great-
er average of 3.3 bushels per acre. In
oats Ontario beat the Prairie Province
this year by 1.6 bushels to the acre.
The total area and yield of no other
cereals are given in the Manitoba bul-
letin, or we would have made a further
comparison. There is no doubt that
Oncaaio holds first place as the greatest
wheat producing province of the Dom-
inion, and that the average wheat pre -
duction per acre exceeds that of any
other province or any state in the
American Union. We hold the same
pre-eminence ,in roots, fruit, cattle,
sheep, swine, horses, poultry and other
farm productions. Let discontented
fanners bear this in mind.

placed under a tarpaulin in the bow. While
the coffin was being lowered on the Lily
the band of the warship played the "Dead
March in Saul" and the ship's guns
belched forth fifteen mournful salutes.
The coffin was taken from the Lily by
eight -sergeants of the Royal Engineers and

' All along the line of procession despite
the tremendous rain storm the streets
were lined ten and twelve feet deep with
a rubber -coated crowd of anxious sight-
seers. Lady Thompson and daughters
who are the guests of her uncle, John
Pugh, Esq., Pleasant street, saw the
Blenheim coming up the harbor from the
window of Lady Thoixtpson's apartments.
It was decided not to open the casket for
publio view, discoloration having taken
place. The doctors are of the opinion that
Sir John Thompson's death was directly
due to the bursting of a blood -vessel in the
brain which, if so, would cause the dis-
coloration as at present. .
After the body of the late Premier had
been placed in the Legislative Council
Chamber the lid of the outer casket was
removed in the presence of the relations
Tor the purpose of identification. The lid
was then replaced. and fastened and the
easket will remain closed. Senator San-
ford. soon after returned to the Blenheim,
where he will remain the guest of Captain
Poe.

for the funeral and already the leading

Gowanlock and others, who were at that
time aldermen of the City of Toronto, to
use their influence for the Hersey Water

cents. Her story runs as follows:-.'Mst autumn I found it wire necessary
