Hon., Janice Duff, Ontario'd Minis-
ter of Agriculture, will read with
pride and pleasure the following des-
,
patch from Washington :
Washington, Feb. 7. -Representative
Asbury F. Lever, of North Carolina.,
is the father of the hill which seems
Le be one of the most practical meas-
ures ever aimed at high prices. 11
provides that a trained agricultural
observer shall be appointed for every
county. His duty shall be to aid, in
every way known to science, in the
work of inereasing the fertility of the
farms in his district, He will he
friend and teacher . of every textile;
and it is thought his efforts will re-
sult in enormous increases in their
production of foodstuffs.
It is now several years since the
Ontario Department of Agriculture
adopted and put in operation the
above, p1011. As fast as "fit" , young
men graduated from the 0, A. 0.,
they were sent to different counties
at the expense of the Governmont as
District Representatives to "aid in
every way known to science in the
work of increasing the fertility of the
farms in his district." Few counties
in old Ontario but now have their ac-
tive, alert, well equipped District
Represlentative taking the lead in all
things making for thetnereage and bet-
terment of the product of farm and
orchard. In Essex "More and 3otter
Corn," in NOriollc and Lambton,
"Mere and Better A.pples and other,
Fruits" have been the watchwords,
and here in Kent corn, heans, tobacco
and fruit have all been given atten-
tion with splendid results.
;It is well to know that Ontario's
much criticized Minister ot Agricul-
ture has been years directing a branch
'of ,beneficial work for agriculture that
is only being taken sip 'in tbe, United
States, and that :there ft is consfder-
ed of so Much practical importance as
to he proclaimed far and wide as an
important step in the solving of the
chief question in the minds of the

THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
Saekville, 1, 13. Feb. 12th, 1014.
Raymond liggington of this city
same to the Maritime Provinces two
years ago last April and he has this
to say on Immigration to the Mari-
time Provinces and Canada, -"I be-
lieve greater care should be
in bringing :out to Canada the right
sort of men. I do not favor the
establishing of English commute.
Wes -we want to feel that wo
are part and parcel of the Can-
adian life and to imbibe that Can-
dian Spirit that teaches us self--
reliance ; to be shown- that we are
welcome by honest work, to extract
our share of the great opparluaities
and wealth of this magnificient coun-
try. -Are the provinces making pro -
Vision so that the men who roam
here may have a fair thence to con-
tinue in and use the experience that
they have.gained in English business ?
Many of these men, had they been
placed in the right kind of businees,
would undoubtdly have made good,
as it is they have gone back to Eng-
land and are spreading false ideas a-
bout the opportunities of these Prov-
inces. How careful our legislatures
should be to have men at the head of
:this great question who have discern-
ment, and who are able to take upon
themselves the responsibility of being
able to place us in 0 proper sphere of
life and work, not only for our good
but also for the lasting good' of the
Province in which we settle.
