When the Government expen- diture on the new transcontinental road begins in earnest, then watch the debt grow, when it increases $5,000,000 in one year under ordinary circum- stances. -For the year • ending December last, there was an increase in immi- gration of 10,395, as compared with the year previous. The arrivals for the year 1905 were :-British, 64,863 ; Continental, 35,331, and United States 44,424: making a total of 144,618, as compared with 134,223 for 1904. The prospects are that the returns for 1906 will be greater than for the past year. • -It takes nearly eleven million dol- lars to pay the interest on Canada's national debt and the expense of look- ing after it. Last year $1,250,000 was paid in railway subsidies, and for bounties to iron and steel industries there was paid $2,234,000. Steamship subsidies cost over a million dollars.

Tho total collections in excise duties amounted to over twelve and one-half millions, of which over five and one-balf millions, or 45 per cent., was doubtless derived from Ontario, Thus the entire sum levied by the Dominion Government in taxa- tion last year amounted to $54,500,000, of which $24,000,000 was collected in this Province. This is about $9,000,000 more than the grand total collected in municipal taxation in the Province in the same year. Does the Dominion Government render the people of On- tario $9,000,000 more in service than is rendered by the municipal govern- ments which maintain our highways, schools and other local institutions F -The Toronto World remarks : Af- ter a somewhat lengthy reign as pro- phet, priest and King of Zion City, Dr. John Alexander Dowie has abdi- cated, and the control of the com- munity has passed into other hands. So departs another of the many pat- ent schemes for realizing a heaven on earth. With him vanishes the barri- ers he so carefully reared against the intrusion of the unregenerates who refused to accept his claim to the fallen mantle of Elijah. Most of his policies will be reversed, and the com- munity will now be run do business lines and on a more democratic basis. •.• -The Inland Revenue Department of the Dominion will shortly publish the results of an analysis that its chemists have made of a number of the best-known patent medicines, in- cluding headache powders. The in- formation, when it is ready, will be available for all those who are desir- ous of knowing l'bat these prepara- tions contain, and some highly inter- esting particulars are promised from the bulletin when it appears. Cana- dians at large will be able to s'e for themselves the risks attending the in- discriminate use of alleged remedies whose properties they do not so far fully realize. • -At the recent Forestry Conven- tion -"B. Stewart, Superintendent of Forestry, estimated the mature tim- ber of the Dominion at 360,000,000,000 feet, which, even at a royalty of $1 per thousand, would yield a revenue to the public treasury of $360,000,000. Thos, Southworth, Director of Fores- try for Ontario, speaking of the ex- tent of the forest wealth of this Pro- vince alone, said the pine -growing ter- ritory, under systematic management should give a gross revenue of 75e per acre, and this, applied even to the 40,- 000,000 acres it is proposed to main- tain as permanent forest reserves, would mean a total income of $30,000,- 000 a. year. • .-The net debt of Canada, at the present time is over $14 for every than, woman and child in the country. The net debt of the United. States is about one fourth of that amount per head. We are going at a rapid rate so far as debt and expenditure are concerned. The Montreal Gazette very properly says --"When with a. highly expanded revenue, Canada should he reducing its debt obliga- tions, they ate being increased, and will be further increased by the lead schemes to which the Ministers have committed themselves.

The Canadian Pacific program is to establish an entirely new terminal on Georgian Bay. The chief port on Georgian Bay hitherto has been Owen Sound, but the policy of Sir Thomas Shaughnessy's com- pany is to erect an entirely new termi- nal at Victoria Harbor, not far from Midland, and to connect it by a piece of new road with their Toronto -Mon- treal line at Peterboro. The existing branch to Owen Sound is said to in- clude some heavier grades than is suited to the carriage of grain at mini- mum rates, whereas the route from Victoria Harbor to Peterboro, aside from being shorter, is understood to have no difficult curves to round or hills to climb. ••• -Interesting details concerning life on the planet Mars are contained in an article by M. Camille Flammarion, the well-known French astronomer, which has been recently published. He expresses the belief that the planet is inhabited, and that by a race far in advance of ourselves. They have the advantage, he says, of a much longer experience, having come into existence millions of years before man occupied the earth. Their lives, too, are more than twice the 'length of ours. They weigh less and conse- quently are in a better position than we to free themselves more easily from the encumbrance of matter, Al- so they live in better climatic condi- tions and can always know what the weather will be in any month of their year. They appear to have a better knowledge of the elements than we, and a more complete control of thein and of their own powers than our race has attained. They are consequently able to undertake works of a vastness inconceivable to us, not only beyond our powers of construction, but be- yond even our comprehension. The basis for this exact knowledge of the people and of the planet they inbabit, Flammarion does not give, but he ap- pears to be very sore of his con- clusions. It may be that imagination has played a more important part in his theory than has scientific observa- tion, but it is certain that the belief in the planet being inhabited is grow- ing in favor among astronomers. If there are people there, the other planets and the more distant stars may be inhabited. The idea gives in- creased significance to our Lord's re- ference to the heavenly mansions.- [Christian Herald. the past year will do more to convince as to the great increase in richness than all this theories in the world. .For 1905, I find that we have provided for the keep of our stook, by putting up 125 to 150 tons of bay, and lalling three silos with corn, over 500 tans. Vire harvested 3,500 bushels of stock sugar' beets and mangles, and sold to a sugar factory 630 bushels of the sugar variety. Besides filling the three silos with Born, we have 1,100 bushels of ear corn, with all the fodder belonging to that quantity. No corn was taken off of what was put in the silos. We threshed 3,000 bushels of oats, 450 bushels of wheat, 350 bushels of peas, and 100 bushels of rye. Have sold three carloads of potatoes, over 1,500 bushels, and 200 bushels of early pota- toes. All the grain but wheat is feet on the farm, and considerable bran and shorts are also purchased, from which it will be seen that there is very little fertility goes off the farm, the sales being from the increase of stock and the milk. About 100 head of cattle and 200 to 300 pigs are on the farm all the time. About 200 to 300 bacon hogs are sold off the farm yearly, as well as the increase of the large herd of pure-bred Holsteins.

Rice, Tillsonburg) In considering the profits of dairy- ing, the great value that accrues to the fertility of the land is often over- looked. 1 am in a position to give a good illustration of the great value of dairying, involving the keeping of a large quantity of stock oti a farm and manufacturing all that is grown on it, The Annandale Farm, Tillsonburg, Ont., is a good example of what can be done in building and enriching a rather light soil. Before coming to this farm, 1 was told by an old resi- dent, who was himself a progressive farmer, that he remembered the time when he or I would hardly accept the farm as a gift, and 1 was also told by several who had some knowledge of sandy loam, that 1 could not grow match of a crop on the Annandale Farm. However, knowing myself the increase fn richness caused by keeping stock on a farm, and that the Annandale Sarni had been heavily stocked for a gond rainy(' years, 1 had no doubt that I should he able to grow at least a reasonable amount of stock fol.
