Farmers Do Not Sufficiently Study their Business --

tice in Tariff Legislation.
An interesting letter by Thom
McMillan. of Hullett, in The Week
Sun deals with agricultural condi tin
in Ontario as seen by him during his
recent tour as it Farmers' Institute
lecturer. \Ir. MacMillan speaks fleet
of the supreme value of the live stock
industry; in aRutding the fanners of
Ontario a firm foundation for sucrose
in their business, and continues :
"Although the pre-eininence of our
live stuck lines is now fully recognized
in the practical (Tema ions of a
majority of our leading , a g r i-
cultuistt", Vet there are still a min-
ority of our people who do not
sufficiently appreciate that fact. Al-
though the Farmers' Institute in its
present toms has now been in exist-
ence for over twenty years, agricul-
tural meetings and discussions have
been brought to the door of almost
every farmer in the land, the annual
reports have been distributed to mem-
bers of Institutes by the Department
of
Agriculture,ri

source.
still the fact remains that not more
than one out of every ten farmers con-
tinue to avail themselves of these re-
ports and a much smaller percentage
study them. Not only so, but the
dearth of a fund of staudanl agricul-
tural literature to he found in too many
of the homes of our agricultural people
is strikingly apparent. This reveals
the fact that along our own special
lines, more particularly, we are not to
A sufficient . extent a reading and
studying people, Is this the reason
why our fathers and grandfathers,
largely sprung from the down -trodden
of Older lands, entered the Wilderness,
and in the short space of a single gen-
eration transformed it into the girder'
which we enjoy, while we, their de-
scendants, are in tato many •instances
marking time? If there is utile Girt
more than another which toy wander-
ings have impressed spun rue it is that
too large a percentage of our slaw
seem clothed with that spirit of su-
preme indifference which allows thew
simply to mark time rather than to
endeavor t, work out the great pos-
sibilities of the heritage we possess.
The experience of life continually
teaches that there are two clearer of
men in the world—the passive and the
active—the one bends to circum-
stances and the other compels circum-
stances to befl(l to theta, and in the
end, while the one is homely able to
mark time, the other meets with that
shining degree of seeress which his
energy and activity demand. 'theca
of us who have howl the privilege of
visiting our great West and really
feeling the ,active pulse -beat of its
people, know how that energetic life
as so taken possession of them that
many who, while here, lived a c
iteratively passivr existence have upon
going out there been so fired with the
flame of activity, and rnnsegilent Nuc,
rem, that their life's work no longer
seems a burden to them. Experience
teaches that if we only engage in the
pursuit of life with that necessary de-
gas' of actiyity and unflinching deter-
mination, the enormity of the struggle
vanishes, and thus the victory of
material success is at once more then
half won.

This is undoubtedly one of the great-
est problems confronting the Ontario
farmer. Pending its solution there
are a few facts to which it is most de-
sirable attention be drawn, Of these
the most important is the resolution
which too many have determined to
clerry out, in striving, if pt,ssible, t.
