Mrs. Runstedier The Men Who Are Ooverpirg Canailda. Bon. Martha Burrell, Minister of Agrt- • culture. Hon, Martin Burrell, Miniiter of Agri* culture in the Borden Cabinet, is a striking combination of the practical farmer imbued with lofty ideals. With him the needs of the Canadian farmer are a strong passions and his selection as their representative was a fitting culmination to n life devoted to agricultural work. Two years and • half in oRice have served but to ernphaelse the special. mental equipment end the all 'round ability of the man, who cam. to Premier Borden's *ids as his Minister of Agriculture when the new cabinet wan formed in /AI. The practical side of Mr. Burrell 'was developed in the occupation of fruit farm• ing from the time when he first came to Canada in 1883. Though not a Canadian born, he has become more Canadian than many Canadians themselves, He had not been long in the country before he was found in the front tank of his profession, and his services were in constant demand as a speaker at Farmers' Institute meet; ings and conventions of the men who are engaged in the country's basic induttrp. During the recent by-election in South Bruce Mr. Burrell spoke one eYening in the village of Ripley, and in his introduc- tion Ire recalled the fact tkat twenty-three years before he had visited the village and had given an address on fruit growing. He had come back in a different capacity.., but his heart was still, as ever, with the industry to which he had been so long attached. In other words, the success and the dignity of office as a minister of %the Crown had neither quenched his ea- thusiasm, nor drowned the personality of the man himself. ONE OF THEMSELVES. It is because the farmers of this country recognize that he is one of themselves that he has gone through the difficulties that come to him, and that he is attempting to solve the ditficuitiee that he, in comma with others, has experienced, that they realize they can approach hint at alt times and explain their needs, The appearance of the man is in itself t► striking indication of his qualities.. His face is well tanned, the result of many years spent in the open in his orchards His walk is quick and decisive. His figure is erect, and his manner at all times busi- ness -like. While a man of 55 summer!. yet The buoyancy of his whole demeanor suggests the. old Latin dictum of a healthy nind in a healthy body, Perhaps this is the reason for the optimistic outlook, which has always characterized the ad- ministration of Martin Burrell. He preach- es agriculture because to bit ifs uses and needs are a second gospel. He carries he flaming torch of its creeds from one end of the Dominion to the other, enthus- ug the cynical and inspiring with a great er energy those who believe in his doctrin- es. When he introduced his bill hest ees- cion providing for the grant of ten million dollars for agricultural education in Cana- da he used language and enunciated ideas which showed the whole Houso that the tlinister was speaking on a subject dear o his heart. Indeed, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, leader of the Opposition, laid aside for the moment the mantle of partisan criticism and praised Mr. Burrell for his work on behalf of the Dominion. Sir Wilfrid recognized that Mr. Burrell was doing what he bad not done, but which his Gov, ernment had promised, namely, to grant liberal as:;istance to the provinces for the purpose of supplementing and extending the work of agricultural education, and for the improvement of agriculture gener- ally. puts the 1,1rr.l in rondit leery to Nerd „tF IIERT ' other tiise.ases and eradiru,tps Ithrunt.0 PIOTEGT tin conditions; f:+rtu the whole Hye• ,rte Int., i', cntntnurtrled f.,r tali f,rrtt•� ref ltnr•tt. rug ietn. li+) . t•ttt tx ,er .1, %%7. yl Ixi hh, r , i��l�i „•, +JJ. .• • � will u v rte yon of i .a I�o� liEUkTIS , ! n!•+ i Lt t ell e n ie i 1 grNnt, yarn,.' fkttyt** Parities the 14leacl and; "Foe tine sveeke f was twee le ie ter** serf Complis.sting 1 iSeascS 1 er ew to tvi(vo tit l seem e toy being h:telly trt firth. 1 :I .t1 Welehttittt" of the blood ti.t.nea Xie 1 wuii 1i d 'Huey,, it tuna in tied t,►e•lt ,C$tit�utd iiktiicks *4ltllininiati.rn ,tf 1 Att.r,tAng twat !tattles r,f illi Eli.n.V f•'Ois lin* heart imd prirdttertr t•rttnntr•a 'tbg 11rt,•n4ti'"', hse n+rt ir. t , left =rp,. ,ttwltr*bleb riraultfatall.

Mr. Burrell, upon the introduction of his famous bill, illus- trates the idealism of the man. He uttered, upon that occasion, words which every farmer in the country ought to have heard. A typical sentence was as follows : "It is not necessary, in this day and hour, to defend or justify generous assistance to agriculture. We all recognize the sound- ness of such a doctrine. To increase the farmers' output, to improv'e'the conditions of rural life, to swell the numbers of those who ti11 the fields -to do these things, even in the very attempting of them, we are doing something to solve the greatest pro- blems and avert many of the manifest evils that face us in modern fife." His conclusion was no less eloquent. It was a classic in sympathy and the phrases of one who had himself borne the burden in the heat of the day in the field. "It is well for us," he said, "to keep in Vision that solitary figure in the distant furrow, that stooped form tending the hearth of the isolated home -symbols and types of our national necessities, our national vir- tues, and our national strength. Here, be. tween these four walls, we sit, year by year, making the law* of our country. Wo do it amidst much strife, sometimes ill, sometimes weft, too often attaehing im- portence and permanence to that Which is neither permanent or importance. Our laws would be better, there would be less bitterness in our strite--if we were oftener moved by a sincere desire to lighten the work and brighten the lives of those, who, in the silence and solitude of the field and wood, are doing the foundation work of our common country." 'WHAT A CONTRAST. What a different spirit it 1* that inspires the work of the Conservative Minister of Agriculture, when it is compared with that of Hon Sydney t isher, who libelled the farmers of'Canada by ealling Boni eh in, different and lazy class, Mr. fisher's doctrine wee that there was no use helping farmers, because they wouldn't help them- selves. lifr. Burrell's doctrine is one of brotherly sympathy and a sublimer faith in the genius of the Canadian farmer, Tho truth, then, is not overstated when . :lir, lxurrrlt is cltaract,�r.zed et a practical tar,tier, imbued pith lofty ideals.
