Paul, Minn., and Detroit, Michigan. Mr. Jackson says lie saw some of the finest country that one would want to see -but for the most part the farmers do not own the land but work it on shares for wealthy land owners who reside in the towns and cities. Some of these land -owners are extremely wealthy and the farm- ers who work the land are conse- quently that much poorer. We judge that Mr. Jackson prefers the Can- adian custom where almost every farmer owns his own farm. The price.of land in these states is much higher than land here and it is that• much harder to acquire. Mr. Jack- son was also much struck with the'. lack of knowledge of Canada dis- played by the average man in the rural places and :smaller towns of the United States.

An honest com'- ment on his life is difficult to make in a newspaper. We do not want to say an unkind word about him. He put nothing into, his life and got nothing out iof it. His hoarded weal- th brought him an early grave, and he cold take none of it with him.
