Mr. • Editor, 1 thank you for your courtesy and kindness in granting rile the space in your columns, and while we have only touched upon :the surfa.'e of the great questions of the day, abundant opportunity will be :had during the next four •weeks to go :into details upon .-every platform in the land, and it is gratifying to know that we ihave succeeded in arousing some • attention to the questions now before the people. - . .:Awake; my country, the hour of dreams is done .

Yet how few farmers there are that realize the important position agricul- ture occupies among the industries of the world and the utter lack of interest they manifest in its only organization is a fact that cannot be accounted for. In all per intercourse in our Institute let us be faithful, law-abiding inowbers, for without discipline we - cannot secure unity of action, and we cann(.t have discipline unless we adhere closely to our organized law. In going through with the business feature of meetings let us be prompts that, we ex- pend no time in useless labors, so that we may have the more time to devote to tt►e education of our, agricultural classes. Knowledge we are" tolais the - foundation. of human happiness, then let us avail ourselves of every oppor- tuity of acquiring it. Let each of us during our leisure time strive to study up 'something that we may suggest at •our meetings, and that wilt be iuter- Osting and. Instructive,to the members. This .Is a duty that comparatively•few of us perform. We would .recommend debates, short lectures and essays upon familiar subjects, and we should not confine our • discussions to agricul- tural questions alone but should include the broad questions of public policy that effect, our interest as a class, such as our present system of taxation and the abuses of corporate power._ These ev�il.s__effectethe_.far_mer and he must enlighten himself .upon the subject that he may be the better prepared to 'meet and ward them oft: We have plenty of local talent among our farmers to meet and discuss these issues, if we could only bring it out '; but not being 'in the habit of public speaking they aro too much inclined to throw up the sponge and declare their inability to do anything • of the kind. To such we would soy -farmers do you ever expect to accomplish anything, without an effort.' Would the gold of California, the iron ore of /Lake Superior, the coal beds.of Nova Scotia be found were there not men of enter- • prise to seek after it, and when found does it not require labor and persever- ence-to place it in • the markets of -the - world f the - world l The finest pearls are found iri deep - water and so it is with all the efforts madein life, if we wish to accomplish anything we must work to that end. 'Our grand object is to place the farmer is the front rank of society, • but',in order to place• hint' there he should be fitted for the position and we see no better way of accomplishing this than' through the plans of di':euss- ion we have proposed ; for• discussion is ,one of the'principle objects aimed at ; subjects of general .policy are mixed up with farm subjects and dis- cussed without the bitterness of parti- san politics. By this Mien arebrought closer together and, those who have voted all theirlives opposed to each other . will Ise-. surprised to' find how close they are in actual sentiment. We have many young farmers in our Dominion who, should they become members of 1• our Institnte ,and. deter- mine to overcome their embarrassment and awkwardness, Wright make them- selves bright and shining lights in the history • of our country. We look .around us and \see many young far niers who ere they will be aware of it will ,be called upon to take the places and assurne the responsibilities of their aged parents. Thtey will be called upon to uphold" the , principles, and practices underlying their vociitton, and expected to enforce their just causes upon our government. In order to be prepared for this work they should take time by the forelock• and, begin, at once to educate themselves for so important an undertal(ing. Then brother farmer let us throt out every inducement to encoura»e these young , men to enlist in our most worthy enterprise. • &Wins A LAMB, Sec'y B , . F.
