THIO. BRUSSELS POST w To The Farmers Z el Of Canada. The annual itietributiutt of samples of some of the best varieties of seed grain to farmers, for•best in different parte of the Dominiou, has, during the ),tact ton years, clone mttch to direct attention bo the im- porbattoe of sowing the best sorts of seed, and in. many sections of the country this introduction of new sorbs has resulted no a deoided improvement in the yield mid quality of the grain produced. Nearly all the varieties sent out aro grown on the I'lxperlmeutal Farms and are aete0ted from among those which, after being sub- mitted to oarefel and repeated tests, have produced the largest average crops of grain of good quality. Having received iuebruotions from the Honorable Minisber ofAgrioniture to con- tinue this work and make another distri- bution during tura coming season, I shall bo pleased to receive applications from all who desire samples, As heretofore, one sample of one variety only can be sent to eaoh applicant, and the distribution will be confined to samples of wheat, oats, barley, field peas, Indian oorn and pota- toes. Among the varieties of grain to bo dis- tributed during the coming season will be some of the more promising of the new cross -bred sorts which have been prodeo- ecl at the Experimental Fermis. All the grain sent out will be carefully cleaned and true to name, To prevent the disap• pointlnent which occurs when parties re- ceive samples of varieties they already have; it would be well for each person ap- plying to name two or three sorts which he would prefer, arranging them in the order of preference ; when, in ease the stock of the first named variety is ex. heisted, the second or third could be substituted. As ib is proposed to send these samples on personal, single appli• cation, it is important shat every farmer who desires a sample should apply for himself. Lists of names will not be con- sidered. All letters addressed to the Central Farm at Ottawa may be sent free of postage, and the samples weighing three pounds each will be sent free to the applicants, through the mail. The dis- tribution will begin early in December, and as the stock is limited and the appli- oations will be filled in the order in which they are received' those sent in early will have the advantage. Appli. cations may, however, be sent in at any time before the let of March ; but after that date the list will be closed soas to ensure the sending out of all samples in time for early sowing. War. SAUNDteas, Director, ExperimentalFaruts. Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Deo, 81b, 1897. Christian Endeavor Budget. .1 familiar letter from tho President of Huron County 8', E. union. Dear Fellow Endeavorers,—The year that closed with the convention held in Clinton in August last Was the most suc- cessful in the history of our Union. The excellent report of our indefatigable Sec- retary told of large accessions to our ranks, increased liberality to missionary and benevolent objects, and, what was better than all, deepened spiritual life in oar members. Like Paul when he met the bretbern at Appii forum, we were fill- ed with gratitude and courage. What will be the record of this year ? What will the report for this year show ? Our Union holds an honorable position in the province. Shall we maintain that honorable position ? The answer lips with the Societies of the Union. Know• in of their spirit I fano i n hear their prompt. unitedandenthnsias. tic reply, "Let ronwARD be our watch- word." If progress is to be made each Society and every member of eaoh Society will have to begin earnest, systematic, practi- cal work and begin at once. Every En- deavor Society should have a revival this Winter in the congregation to which it belonge. Let the congregation feel in the most practical way that we are going to do just "What Christ would have ns do" Then let us do it, not dream about it, not speculate or theorize about it. Paul said : "This one thing I Do." Try that. He started some historical revivals right along that line. We may do the same. Let us live near to Christ that we may get Paul's passion for souls. Let us study our Bibles diligently that we may be wisely guided in winning them. Let ns be much in prayer that we may lose our pride and selfishness and narrowness, and be filled with the Spirit. Then shall our light spring forth and our work will tell for Christ and the Church. Every Endsavorer should remember that loyalty to our own Church is one of the cardinal principles of Christian En. deavor. Be true to the congregation to which you belong. That, for the time being, is where your work lies. Do not be a grumbler or faultfinder but a work- er. If things are nob what they ought to be, lencl a hand to put theist right in the Spirit of Christ. Leb your pastor feel you are with him in his work, talk hint np, not down, pray for him, Paul said "brethren pray for me." Your pastor may not be a Paul ; all the more dose he need your prayers ; fill up the seats at the prayer meeting and Sabbath services, There is no inspiration in a lumbo° pile. Give your name to the office•bearers as one willing to enter any door of oppor- tunity God may open for you. Be true to the best your Church stands for. This will nob make you a narrow-minded Sec- tarian, but a broad and liberal -minded Christian. True interdenominational fellowship pre -supposes denominational loyalty. Infidelity is striking a fierce blow at our Christian Sabbath. We aro not pre- pared for a continental Sabbath with all the evils attending it. Every Endeavor- er. should stand strong and firm against all encroachments on the sacred day of rest. We can give valuable help to the Lord's Day Alliance in their noble efforts to learn the bettor observance of the Sab- bath. We can be conscientious in our observance of the day. Example tells, The standard is not the sentiment pre- vailing in your community, The law of God is our rule. "Remember the Sab- bath day to keep it holy." The liquor traffic is still strongly in - trenched. behind unrighteous laws, a sick- ly temperance sentiment and a Christi• unity that has not yet learned the saored obligation of the ballot. Every effort to destroy only reveille how firmly the evil is rooted in our land. How many more millions will it waste ? How many moro homes will it wreck ? IIow many more lives Will it coin belene it 18 destroyed 7 The hteratnro emit you weekly eau be used very effectively in oretttittg a healthy public sentiment in favor of temperance reform, especially if it is backed up by earnest personal work, Organization for the mining plebiecitoshonidbegiit atone°, Tlutbnaia-m counts. Six thousand young hearts aflame with the lova of Christ in this county should mean something both for Clturoh and State.

While opponents of the Ontario Gov- ernment have been.00ndemning the now county council system, by which a large eau is annually saved to the taxpayers in every county, it is noteworthy that not a petition for a change back to the old order of things has been received. TnUDD IN ONTA000.—The wet weather of the past few weeks has been unfavor- able to the sale of goods usually in Is. mond at this season. The fur trade is especially injured by the open Fall. Country roads are broken up, and despite the high prices for grain, which is p strong ivoentive to farmers to sell, de. liveries aro but limited. Export demand keeps np, and warehousee outside are being emptied. The provision trade is quiet, owing to low prima abroad. Wool is quiet, stooks being unusually light, owing to the heavy demand for the United States during the early Summer mouths, A good many inquiries for dressed poultry are being reoeived from England. Prospects point to an enlarged trade in that line. Money rates continue steady at 4 per cent. for coil loans, and 5 to 7 per pent. for discounts. Rev. A. J. Vining, superintendent of Baptist missions in Manitoba and the Northwest Territories, was in London on his way East. In an interview Mr. Vin- ing said : "People are pouring into the country, and ones there ore writing for their friends. I have lettere now from would-be settlers whom I hope to send out there. Foreigners are getting on well and taking bo theolimate. Swedes prefer it to their own. The increase in grain this year has given a stimulus to work, and the effects will be felt next year. This year men who went out ten years ago with a horse and plow are worth 68,- 000, °leered* in grain, and may retire. There are some wonderful mines out there, too. I don't see why people want to go to the Klondike when they have British Columbia full of minerals." GOOD DnsDs AND Bon,—Over 038,000,- 000 were given to charity and education in the United States the past year, ao• oording to published accounts. Unknown benevolences probably amounted to 'vast- ly more. Never before in the history of the world was the spirit of Christianity so aotit'e—rho willingness to give, the eagerness to help others, the desire to re- form. Reported stealings Last year were under 8110,000,000, less than half as mush as two years ago, and a bare fraction of 1 per asnt. of the money handled, The vast majority of people are honest. Mu - dere dere in the United States last year 10,- 652, suioides 6520, hangings 122, lynch- ing 181, total 17,525. These figures, own - piled by the Chicago Tribune, show a big increase in murder and suicide, but a de- orsase in lynching compared with '92. Are we nob "a violent people 7" Do we not need a higher reward for law 7 These figures are for larger iu proportion to population than in Europe, or even in the land of "murderous Italians." 101111mt11i'1!EllEdldldtLigamAA buibulin0 1 e d Cif- TBE® Great Offer (1p OF -o0 Th 113 London Free Press -0 4 i- 4 To P'roo Press, dsshdn6 to greatly Inoreashc its subscription list melcces the groat eau to the flartpors nodetdekmoe of Canada , whorobv sub - scribers to Weekly Free Press will got One Year's Paper Free.
