Forty years ago Macl.enze Howell was editor and proprietor of the In- telligeneer, and until his election to Parliament in 1867, though identified with many .local enterprises, he de- voted to the paper the largest share of his attention. In 1878 he became Minister of Customs. In December, 1892, he was called upon to organize the new Department of Trade and Commerce, and to become Govern- ment leader in the Senate. Only a few weeks ago he was President of the Ottawa Intercolonial Conference.

If anything could alleviate the sorrow which is felt throughout Can- ada in consequence of the untimely d death of, her gifted Premier, it would be the remarkable and even surprising' display of feelleg what it has evoked in the Mother Country, Queen. Victoria herself, under whose roof lie answered the dread summons, has afforded every possible indication that she regards atda th( stroke. as a cl- sonal.alietion. First she calls Sir Charles Tupper to her presence,, and after expressing her extreme grief, " '4'1 •(' O' •ilaP'. 'bids flim send a mes,< } • f s 1 m purport to Lord Aberdeen.

Scarcely second to Washington, Lincoln and Grant on the honor -roll of American history stand the names ,of Benjamin Franklin and Horace Greeley. In their hands the press became an agency of incalulable power' for good. The pen and the composing stick were mightier than ,tete sword. Can Canada parallel these names? Let us see. In. August, 18.13, after a brief resi- ' „dente in New York, a young Scotch - man came to Canada with his father, and began the publication of the Toronto Banner, a half -religious, half -political paper,. which in March, 1844, became The Globe. What George Brown and the Globe have 'peen in the history of Canada, if is 1ee(1less here to recite. Suffice it to sey that for nearly a quarter of a• s.elitury they presented the most unique spectacle to be found in journalise the world over: the leader- ship of a political party and the con- duct of its chief newspaper organ centered in one and the same indi- vidual. It is often said that the era of'personal journalism is past—that hereafter, like the London Til11eS, any newspaper of the first rack, in the United States or Canada, will he greater than any sin,r;lo mind ar will connected with it, Perhaps sot but (even if the conditions were favorable, where is the Greeley or the llro%vn tc thrive under theist? afore than half a century ago, John Sparrow Thompson avas Queen's Printer for Nova Scotia..

The exceedingly stormy weather, l together with the dullness in the horse trade, made the attendance at this meeting much smaller than usual Wednesday week at Clinton. The society however enjoys the somewhat unique position of being perhaps the only one for the registration of live stock which has an ample financial basis, and this it continues to hold despite the failing off ill business which has marked the horse trade for some years. The financial re- ports showed that after paying all expenses for the year, the balance in bank is $1d 71, only some $40 less than at the same date last year.

If in the pruning of any plant these principles are wrong- ly applied, it resolvers itself into one of the host injurious operations that can take place, bat if, on the other hand, they are well directed, it be- comes one of the most useful opera- rth, atn(1 who den, - the trait has ttol•uc+ growth anandsiI(iul(1 1. - to At least three Intel which new bealrin5.); vi If left on the trellis ov tions for the mutual benefit of the plant and pruner. The winter pruning of fruit trees tends to en- courage the growth of wood. and the building up of the tree generally, while sulllmel' pruning, usually carried on in the month of June, when the leaves are • two-thirds formed, assists greatly in the pro- duction of fruit. So at this season of the year we aro confronted with the often repeated query : "Is the winter pruning of apples and other fruits advisable, and under what conditions should it be done; when and how?" ' In pruning the apple in winter, warm clays should be selected during the latter• part of e , alter the severity of the young seasonwinter •has !passed away, especially in climates where the thermometer is liable to register several degrees below zero. The exposure of cut surfaces may cause it to become, injured, and would fail to heal over as readily or as perfectly. Large limbs in orchards that have been neglected are best removed during the wa,rni winter days, enforcing judgment so 08 not to make too large a removal, as it is liable to bring about too great a shoes: to the vitality of the tree, and should be practiced only when necessity calls for it. This removal of large limbs is delicate work, and may be avoided in the orchard by inspecting the trees every winter during their young days, removing cross limbs or over- grown, abundant shoots. These shoots occur generally where orch- ards are pruned the following season, and should be removed by breaking i off. In pruning, remove the limbs; or branches close to the trunk or stem, making the surface smooth with a knife, cutting away ragged edges of bark to prevent liability to decay. The wound should thele be treated with a composition material, serving the purpose of preserving the wood, ! excluding the air, preventing injury : to cell structure slid cracking of the surface of the wound, and assisting the new bark in foraging over the cut tnatde. Any surface of an inch in diameter should be treated. An efficient composition is alcohol and; gum shellac, mixed to form the con-; siste} cy of paint, applied with a brush. 1. Common white lead paint is equally as good. Coal tar may also be used. Winter pruning of enfeebl- ed trees will give them a stimulating vigor, if done judiciously, causing the cell development to • become larger by increasing the nourishment in a less number of branches. If young tl'ees are pruned In the early part of the winter, especially in a north latitude, the enols of the shoots will die back, and if wounds are ex- posed, will not heal over as rapidly as if treated later on in the season. The best time is the latter part of I. February. and the first half of March. l The pear is treated the same RS IS 1 the apple. 'Winter pruning is of, great value, as the wounds steal over perfectly.
