BRUSSELS.
A. J. Lowery, who has been in poor
health for the past couple of years has
not been as well as usual during the
past weer.
Thursday of last week, Rev. Mr.
Page and a company of ladies attended
the Sabbath school convention at Sea -
forth. The former gave an address.
Eva Anderson, of Walton locality,
has been very ill with pneumonia.
A whopper of a turtle was captured
in the Maitland River here that plump-
ed down the scales at 38 ppunds. It
was the snapping variety.
R. Warwick took honors in his recent
examinatien at the School of Practical
Science, Toronto. He is home for a
holiday at present, but may go out on a
surveying tour.
Workmen are pushing the foundation
of the new Presbyterian Church, so as
to be ready for the cornerstone laying
ceremony on Monday afternoon, the
25th inst. Dr. MacDonald, editor of
the Toronto Globe, will officiate.
INDIVIDUAL FAIR PLAY.
In a herd of 12 dairy cows the aver-
age yield last year was 3,780 pounds of
milk and 144 pounds of fat. The 10
best cows in the district averaged 6,293
pounds of milk and 221 pounds of fat
while the 10 poorest gave only 2,818
pounds of milk and 107 pounds of fat.
When it is seen that the difference in
the average of these two groups of 10
cows 3,475 pounds of milk, while be-
tween the best and poorest individual
cow there was actually a difference of
43,195 pounds of milk, it is quite evident
that figuring out just a cold, dead, ma-
chine -like "average" is quite unsuit-
able and unfair when it eomea to deal-
ing with a living, nervous, sensitive
cow.
That difference of a01.05 between the
earning power of two individual cows
indicates the cow's natural rebellion
against mere mechanical treatment.
Being an animated and complex bundle
of nerves and tissues she needs study of
het particular likes and dielikes, then
her best results will be cheerfully given.
She is not simply one of a team, but an
individual whose peculiarities are well
worth studying to eneure development.
The average may be esed in giving
due justice to eaeli cow only when all
in the herd are equally good. Jot as
long as these remarkable . differences
exist between individual cows, there
will ekes remain the need or a record
of test of feed and production of milk
of each one separately. Then the herd
can 1* built up on the definite system
of eh one contributing a good meas-
ure of profit: otherwise the deficienciee
of several poor tows add to the heavy
burden shouldered by the two or three
star workers of the team that do make
large profits. Dairy records give fair
play with each cow and help in judging
IndiVidual merit.

. GOVERNMENT BY CAUCUS.
(Toronto Star.)
If there is any doubt in the publci
mind as to the ability of Sir James
Whitney to resume and continue his
work as PrimeMinister of Ontario, that
doubt is being created by the politicians
who are supposed to be Sir James Whit-
ney's feeds, It is these politicians
who are circulating reports of a prem-
ature dissolution election to be held in
the summer or early fall of this year.
No public reason is assigned for the
premature election. It is said that the
Conservatives are anxious to go to the
country under the leadership of Sir
James Whitney. But what the people
of Ontario are anxious to know is not
who is to lead the hosts in the election,
but who is to govern the Province af-
terwards.
The hurrying on of the election would
mean that on the Conservative side,
there is uncertainty as to the leader-
ship. In plain words, it would mean
that the name of Sir James Whitney
would be used dishonestly, for election-
eering purposes. If by that election-
eering device, the Government could be
returned, the caucus could then choose
some other leader, and control the Leg-
islature, furthering or opposing legis-
lation according to its own pleasure and
caprice.
The straightforward, honest way is
to hold the election at the regular time.
At that time the people ought to be in.
formed Who is really to be the leader of
the Conservative party, so that they
may choose between him and Mr. Row-
ell and between the policies of the two
leaders. It is not fair to ask any man,
whatever his politics may be, to vote
in the dark, so as to allow a group of
politicians to choose any leader and
carry out any policy they please.
