EDITOR1AL NOTES.
ToE South Et sex Conservatives, at
their convention recently held, re -
lased to nominate Zion. J. C'. Pattet-
ron:
Now that the treaty with France
Etas beeii vlopted by the Chamber of
Deputies, it can be brought into
force by our Governor-General by
.,proclamation.
Ting Liberal -Conservative Associa-
`tion of West Huron held a conven-
tionlast Friday in Uoderich, and unan-
3tnou:;ly nominated. Ron../. 0. Patter-
son, Minister of Militia, as their can-
didate far the Dominion house.
THE London (England) Produce
Brokers' Association and the Liver-
pool and Glasgow dealers have
-unanimously passed resolutions in
favor of iner•asably branding the day
and month upon all Canadian cheese
slipped to these markets. and not
upon the cheese bones.
TFIP Lucknow Council having re-
fused to pay. the freight on the can-
nons sent. to 'that place by Hon. J.
C. Patterson, Minister of Militia, the
tcFwn has been notified that the Gov-
ernment will pay the freight on
Baine, so says the Toronto News.
From this it would seem that our
Council did not hold out long
enough. -
Sin CHAM..Es Trjri'un, high Conm-
niissianer, is still agitating for the
removal of the embargo against
Canadian cattle entering the old
country markets. With all his
.efforts, there is not the least
likelihood of Canadian cattle
being allowed to enter the British
markets, as formerly. While it is
quite true that pleuro -pneumonia
does not exist in Canada. the old
country people have confounded tu-
berculosis with it, and will continue
the restrictions against our cattle.
A:; order in Council has been pass-
ed at Ottawa establishing the testing
of neat cattle in Canadian quarantines
with tuberculins lyntplt before they
can be alio sued to enter the Dominion.
The order rends as follows "All
neat cattle arriving in quarantines
sisal! be tested by the Koch tuber-
culine lymph in order to detect the
presence o1otherwise of the. disease
of tuberculosis in any of its stages
among them. No animal haund
by the reaction test of the lymph
mentioned to be affected by that
divest. shall be allowed to, leave the
precincts of the quarantine nnless for
the purpose of returning such animal
to the place whence, it came, the
owner to have the alternative of
taking hack any animal found to be'
n fected by tuberculosis or hawing it
slaughtered without compensation.
`"rhe Department of Agrlculttne to
furnish tuberculine lymph for the
purpose of making the necessary
test." `I'ubercnlosis is in reality con-
sutuption. It is not highly contagious,
but is liable to spread under certain
conditions. When once established ,
it is incurable. The best authorities
advise the immediate slaughter and
burial of x111 animals proved to be
affected by it. The milk front a cow
at#ficted with this disease is wholly
Unlit for limon food.

ed in the trade. His weekly ship-
ments amounting to thousands,
frequently having no competition,
could buy in accordance withadviees
from England -his rates on rail and
steamboat having all the advantages
of an extensivebusiness--few cattle
were bought at over 4cents per
1 pound in Toronto, and many cticl not
cost 4 cents. The British home fed
cattle were selling high and still the
trade from this country was ruinous
Ito all engaged in it, and why be-
cause of a discrimination of at least
30 per cent. against Canadian' as
compared with home cattle.
And this is the market Mr. Me-
earthy and other Imperialists recom-
mend to
ecoln-
mendto the farmers of this country
and ignores the American market.
• Let me quote the markets from a
Toronto daily, September 1:1 t Ex-
- port cattle, Toronto, $.4 ; Buffalo,
*5.75 ; Chicago, $6.35. Now the
4 cent cattle lost the Canadian dealer
a fortune, while the •Alucrican mar-
kets have been well maintained up
to the present time.. In The Canada
Farmers' Sun of the 7th inst., Mr.
.Haycock is reported to have said :
"The United.States tariff Congress
1
at its recent session bad done more
for the Canadian fanner at one
' stroke than the Canadian Govern-
meat had been able to do for years."
Pray what has the Canadian Govern-
ment done sines the inauguration of
the N. I'., save pursue a polio- of
discrimination against the fanners of
this country ? Have they been in-
nocent in regard to the embargo
being plaeed on our cattle? If the
United States Congress by a volun-
tary act has benefitted Canada so
much, what might we expect if legis-
lators were as true and sincere in
the interest of the people as they
profess to be ?
Why should there be such diver-
gence of interests among fanners?
Our needs are identical. There are
only two things essential to successful
farming, viz.: Tp raise good crops-
and
ropsand to dispose of them profitably.
We can do the first independent of
Governments and we do it, too. But
a government for the spoils of office
and gain from overgrown monopo-
lists canlinterrupt and obstruct com-
merical intercourse with a neighbor
ing nation, and they do it, too.
Titre is not one farmer in fifty,
irrespective of party, who considers
the matter rationally, but will admit
that a fair and liberal treaty between
Canada and the United. ,States would
be the salvation of this country. If
talose rays of light, scattered though
they be, were only converged on this
one grand object it would raise. a
smoke and a,tire that would revolu-
tionize the fanning industry of this
country.

-What might race ern , fatal
to
cident, happened on Friday of last
I week, on the farm of Mr. J. H. Link-
• later. While driving out of his
barn with a load of hay, the horses
became unmanageable and while en-
deavoring to control them (a little
snow having made the ground very
slippery) Mr. Linklater slipped and
fell between the wheels of the wag-
on, the hind wheel passing over his
' left leg -a little above the knee, but
strange to say without fracturing it.
The team ran off:' with the load,
about 28 hundred pounds weight,
and came in collision with the wood
ailed, which anchored thein test; but
strange to relate, no damage was
done, except misplacing the Ioad a
little. After giving his leg a dose of
liniment, Mr. Linklater was able to
proceed to town, feeling but little the
• worse.-ilir. Chas. Kitchen has gone
