NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The Dornieion Minister of Agricul-
ture will extend the offer of a bonus
to creameries which was made at tbe
beginning of the season. Many were
apprised of it too late, and wish to
have a chance next season. The bonus
is $50 the first year and $25 for each of
the two following years.

It is announced that the forthcona-
iug report on the Ontario licensing
system will show that there is less
drunkenness in this Province than in
any other part of the world, That
fact was admitted by Sir Wilfrid
Lawson, the British Parliamentary
temperance leader,in a recent address.
X 4- X
Rev, Principal Ormat,of Queen's Col-
lege in his recent letter on the tem-
perance outlook, t tkes strong ground
against a prohibitory liquor law He
says: -After a long and earnest consid-
eration I have come to the conclusion
that a Dominion prohibitory law
would be hurtful to the cause of tens
peranee and most hurtful to the gen-
eral public and private morality,"
Mr. Haycock, the Patron leader in
the Legislature, is an experienced
farmer ; therefore, be says he does not
expect the experimental farm at
Guelph to pay. The assault on the
Administration was really set on foot
by men who never farmed a yard of
soil in their lives, and who haven()
esyutpathy with the aspirations of the
agricultural community, except when
they are seeking votes. Advertiser,
Any institution set up as a pattern
or example for fellow -country men
should above all things be made topay
its way. If it cannot, why abolish it.
WHAT'S THE MATTERW1TH THE
SUNNY SETTLEMENT ?
During the Centre Toronto cam-
paign The Globe tried to make capital
by alleging as a fact that the Manitoba
school question was not settled, that
the Conservatives were planning to
keep it open, and that trouble would
eventuate unless the Liberals, who
had Nettled the question, were retained
in power. It looks, indeed, as if the
Manitoba question were not settled,
but it is the Liberals and not the Con-
servatives who are doing the mischief
in keeping it open. The negotiations
now going on between Sir Wilfrid
Lauris;r,Lieut-Governor Chaldean and
Mr. Greenway are significant of a
coining proposition of souse kind in
regard to the school system of Mani-
toba. There is no doubt that severe
- pressure is being brought to bear on
Sir Wilfrid to grout further conces-
sions to the Catholic minority of the
Prairie Province. The church in Que-
bec desires these concessions, perhaps
not so much for their intrinsic advant-
age as to re-establish the prestige of
the Church. Mr. Greenway has a
railway project for which he wopld
like to receive help from the Dominion
Government. The power of the church
in Quebec and the necessities of the
Province of Manitoba may together
• be pon elle]. enough to re -open the
Manitoba school question and. change
the terms of settlement. Should any
such death() attempted Ontario and the
other provinces will have Lobe reckon-
ed with. If Sir Wilfrid Laurier is
prudent he will set his foot sternly
down on this attempt to •introduce
a question that is settled and will
remain settled for all iiine 'if the good
sense and determination of the people
of Canada count for anything. Sir
Wilfrid Laurier can better afford to go
out of 'ciffice than to try and re -open • a
question that be "settled" with his
sunny ways,
Flurryin Whes,t.
The "squeeze" which sent wheat
in Chicago up to $1.09, last week, pro-
duced an extraordinary situation in
• speculative circles. The bulls dumped
hundreds of thousands of bushels into
a pit to keep the price down, the bears
hugged and, squeezed. the quotations
in trantic endeavors to find a stopping
place, but the rise came, with a close
at 31.09. Sonne prophets who see great
panishment in store for the big men
without wheat tell of 81,25 or $1.50
wheat before Christmas Day.
Me. Armour said: "I am not shot t a
bushel of wheat, 1 ant simply doing an
aggressive elevator business. I be-
lieye wheat will be worth $L25 ic any
le leket of the world before a new crop
is harvested.

A VERY POOR DEFENCE.
The Ontario Legislature did a com-
I
mendable act last session when it pass-
ed the resolution forbidding civil ser -
vents from taking part in politics.
Yesterday the first complaint was
made, and the replies of Messrs.Hardy
and Davis show that even yet the Gov-
ernrnent lias not grasped the 'sites, -
tion,
The Goverment admitted that sev-
eral men in the employ of the 0ns-em-
inent had participated actively in a
politieal meeting at Orilla., but Messrs.
Hardy and Davis pleaded that some of
the accused were not employed the
whole of the time by the Government,
and others were night watehmeri,
and had nci duties during the day.
The explanation is a poor one. The
objection to the participation by civil
servants in politics is not solely be-
cause it takes up time which should be
given to the province. Many of those
in Ontario's enaploy could work at poli-
tics day and night and have ample
time to do very satisfactorily the work
which is laid oat for them. But civil
servants are the servants or all the
people, for by all the people they aree
paid, The i have no more right to en-
gage in party politics than a judge on
the bench. What would the public
think of a judge who attended a poli-
tical meeting? 'When a man goes into
the service, then he gives, or should
give, up party, and work only for the
people. If he cannot refrain from the
caucus he should refrain from public
service. Having entered the public
seinrice, if be transgresses a well-
known rule, he should at once be dis-
missed. -Toronto Star, Liberal).
FREE SAMPLES FOR FARMERS.
Farmers who desire samples of some
of the best yarieties of seed grain
shonla make application at once to the
Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa.
One sample of one variety only cam be
sent to each applicant, and the distri-
bution will be confined to samples of
wheat, oats, barley, field peas, Indian
corn and potatoes. Among the varie-
ties of grain to be distributed during
the coming season will be some of tbe,
more promising of the new cross -bred
sorts which have been produced at the
experimental farms. All the grain sent
out will be carefully cleaned and true
to name. To prevent the disappoint-,
ment which occurs when Partiesreceive
samples of varieties they already have,
it would. be well for each person apply-
ing to name two or three sorts which
he would prefer, arranging them inthe
order of preference; when, in case the
stook of the first -named variety is ex-
hausted, the second or third could be
substituted. As it is proposed to only
send these samples on personal, single
application, it is important that every
farmer who desires a sample should
apply for himself, Lists of names will
not be considered. All lettersaddressed
to the Central Farm at Ottawa may be
sent free of postage, and the samples
weighing three ponnds each, will be
sent free to the applicents,through the
mail. The distribution will begin early
in December, and as the stock is limit-
ed and the applications will be filled in
the order in which they are received,
those sent in early will have the ad-
vantage. Applications may, however
be sent in at any time before March 1,
but after that date the list will be.
closed, so as to insure the sending out
of all the samples in time for early
sowing.
Hugh John will Carry Manitoba
Mr. Robt. Rogers , the well-known
Winnipeg politician, declares that no-
thing can now prevent Hugh John
McDonald from carrying the Province
when the general elections conies
round. Mr. Rogers says that the vic-
tory iu Turtle Mountain means that
the Conservatives who come from On-
tario and elsewhere, wno voted for
Green way first in the provincial rights
cry and then in the school question
have now returued to their old party
allegiance. The sentiment in Turtle
Mountain, he says, is it true reflection
of public opinion all over Manitoba,
and it would be impossible for it party
to have a more popular leader than the
son of the old chieftain, Mr. Macdon-
ald vil1, it appears, oppose Attorney -
General Caincron in South Winnipeg,
and Mr. Rogers says that his victory
will be an easy one. Hugh John has
spoken in most of the forty constit-
uencies, and already allthe Opposition
candidates are as good aS named. Mr.
Rogers thinks there will be it general
election within a year.

A" FINANCIAL PozznE.--Here is a.
problem in finance which _We submit
to those of our readers who are always
loaded for an argnment on any
money question :
A banker skumtering borne from his
• dinner saw a $10 bill lying on the curb-
stone. Of course he picked it up and
took 1he numbers in order to find the
ow,ner. While at his b om e his wife re-
marked that the butcher had sent in a
bill for meat amounting to $10. The
only money he had with him was the
money be had found,Whiels he gave her
and she paid the butcher. The butcher
paid it to a farmer for a calf, and the
farmer paid it to a 'merchant, who, in
turn, paid it to it washervvoinan, and
she, owing the banker a note of $10,
went to the banker and paid her note.
The banker recognized the bill as the
one be had found, and whieb,tip to
that time, had settled $50 of debt. On
a more careful consideration he found
the bill counterfeit. •

Death of Richard Pickard.
Last (Wednesday) night about 12
o'clockthe death of one of Exeter's most
prominent_ citizens, in the person 'of
Richard Pickiircl, of the late firm of
R. Pickard. SOD., merchants, of this
village, occurred at his residence, of
paralysis, or which he suffered minor
attacks of late. He was at the store
during the day and appeared in his
usual good health, and had just retir-
ed when paralysis overcame him. The
news will be a surprise to a very wide
circle of acquaintances, having being
in business here fox' upwards of 35
years. He leaves a widow, four sons
and two daughters to mourn his de-

The Latest Swindle.
Here's a new trap for jays. A short
time ago a countryman saw an ad-
vertisement in a, city newspaper which
stated that snoney wonId be loaned. on
life iusurance policies. He had a pol-
icy of the ten-year kind, written for
$2,000 with five years to run. He was
a trifle shy, and he opened a corres-
pondence with the advertiser In due
time he was inclined to go and
meet a man. The man took him to
Gleasontown, which now seems to be
green goods center. The thousand
dollars in good coin of the realm was
counted out by the snan at the little
desk, Then the num tied up themoney
in brewn paper and took the policy -
The man told the policy holder that
the loan would cost him $500. Thejay
forked over the cold cash. When he
got an the train curiosity prompted
him to size up the package. He found
that it controlled $11. Today he came
to town to identify a man in theTombs.
He could not do it People who ima-
gine that the "shifter" is a back num-
ber should stick to safe business chau-
nels in dealings of this sort.

To Advertisers.
t Is
The benefit derived from an adver
tisernent'depends altogether upon the
number of persons who read it. To
reach the greatest number of readers,
at, the least possible expense, is a
question' that should be considered
very carefully by busioess men. A
thousand small bills panted in Tor-
onto or London, and distributed in
this section, would be just as effective
as if the bill had been printed in town.
There is not it doubt about that, but if
you want toned) the people in their
homes, newspaper advertising is the
only successful way. To „,„a•et the best
results use the paper with the largest
circulation, and tb.egreatest amount of
local news. Circulation is the proper
basis upon •,vbich prices should be fixed.
If a newspaper with a circulation of
2,000 charges $100 per year, then one
with is circulation o f COO would be en titl-
ed to 330. An advertiser should take
these facts into careful consideration,
when making contracts. Another fre-
quent loss to advertisers is in the use
of several papers 'when one covers the
ground. THE TIMES is read by more
people in Exeter, Usborne, Stephen,
Hay, the northern part of Biddulph
and McGillivray than all other county
papers combined, and an advertises
ment placed in it nill he found the
most effectual way in which to reach
the people.
Leamiington people are 'netitioning
the council to test the singfe'tax the-
ory to a certain extent by lowering
the assessment on itnproved property.
