CONFEDERATION AND AnER—
SIXTY TEATS PEOURSS
NOVA SC0V1A. AND CONFEREE-
ATION
The history of Nova Scotts, is older
than that of any other Province of
Canada, Cabot landed on Cape
Breton in 1497 and trst raised $t.
George's Grose on American soil. De
Monte and Champlain, in 1605, made
a settlement at Fort Royal (Annap-
olis Royal). Por over a century there
was alinast eontinuoue conflict be-
tween the English incl the French,
until, by the capture of Louisbourg
(1758), French rule ended in what
is new called the Maritime Provinces.
Nova Scotia, with a population ap-
proaching 600,000, is a peninsula
386 miles in length by from 50 to
150 in width. The coast facing the
Atlantic is for the most part, rocky
and barren, but the waters yield a
rich harvest of fish; the land along
the 'Bay of Fundy is highly produc-
gtirvoew, 1.1Oted for its fruit
1. early days Nova Scotia was
known as Acadia, but its present
name really dates from 1521, when
Sir William Alexander obtained from
King James 1 a grant of the territ-
ory which AM constitutes both Nova
Scotia and New Brunswick. The
British gained a firm and abiding
foothold in the province when Hali-
fax was founded in 1749.
From the first days of British rule
almost to Confederation the history
of the province was a history of the
struggle for responsible government.
Nova Scotia sent delegates to •both
the Charlottetown Union Conference
and the Quebec Confederation Confer-
ence but there was a battle royal
against entering the Union. Two
strong men led the opposing forces,
Howe and Dr. Afterwards (Sir Char-
les) Tupper. In the end Tupper
won; Howe yielded to the inevitable;
Nova Scotia received' "better terms"
and with no degree of enthusiasm
became a part of the Dominion. '
The province is rich in natural re-
sources. Its fisheries are yast and
practically inexhaustable. In 1924,
they had a total value of nearly
$9,000,000. If the waters yield a
rich harvest an even greater one can
be dug from the earth. Vast coal
beds exist, capable of yielding a
supply, at the present rate of con-
sumption, for seven, hundred years.
Besides coal and its by-products the
province is rich in iron, gypsum,
limestone, etc. Since 1850 there has
been a steady production of gold; in
one year, 1902, the yield being 30,-
348 ounces. Lumber and pubpwood
to the value of about $30,000,000 are
annually produ.ced.
1 Nova Scotia has a, fine Agriculture
College, a general stock farm, a
poultry farm, ,a horticultural farm,
and two experimental farms. Al-
though there has recently been a
tailing off in the field crops they are
still about $20,000,00 in value.
The chief industry, apart frorn
lumbering and the fisheries, the latter
employing over 20,000 men, is the
manufacture of iron and steel. About
20,000 people are employed in purely
industrial occupations and the pro-
ducts are -valued at about a 30,000-
000. Sine 1605, when the first
easel built in Canada was launched
at Port Royal, Nova Scotia, has built,
and is stall building, many staunch
and swift merchant and fishing yeas -
els.
Her contributions to Canada have
been great—commercially, politica-
lly and intellectually., The heads
of the three leading universities of
the Dominion have been from Nova
Scocia--Principal Dawson, McGill;
Principals , Grant ' and Gordon,
Queen's; and the present principal
of the University of Toronto, Sir
Robert Falconer. Likewise three
prime ministers were born in Nova
Scotia --Sir John Thompson, Sir Char-
les Tupper, and Sir Robert Borden.
Farman/ Week— O. A. C., Guelph
Arrangements have been completed
for the holding of the annual farm-
ers' week at the Ontario Agricultural
College from June 20-23 inclusive. So
many counties are asked each day
and Huron County people are ex-
peetecl to attend on Tuesday, June 21,
along with Halton, Waterloo, Duf
ferin, Perth, Grey and .i3ruce Coant-
ies.
In the old days— and not so lOng
ago either—the farmers' Juno excur-
sions to Guelph were lboked forward
to with great deal of anticipation.
In these days ot the motor car there
should be the same enthusiasm
shown in attending. A holiday full
of interest and wherein something of
value about your own business may
be Teamed is unusual anal ShoUid not
call for any hesitariey.
While no definite plans of making
a motor calvaccule for the day have
been made and as several ways tram
this county lead to Guelpli yet there
Is no real reason why communities
cannot form touring parties.
Anyway let us have a goodly 'rep-

And we have got one now.

Whale broken hearted "Florence"
Was set to, keep the door.
Belinda is their pianiet,
She pla,Ye SO very sweet„
But when "Tlae Orchestra" joins in.
I'm sure' they can't be beat,
And when they all start playing
The music sounds 'just grand,
Oh fife seems full of aleaeurea
When Violet leads the Band.
At last they're all assembled

And hard worked, deaf Old Staiett
Astraggling on behind, -

They're dreadful, Smart and clever
And they sure do liven thinge.
Their "Meetinge are delightftil,
Their "Club Poon" !vie and Span,
But all they think co, talk about,

Oh no, the Maids aint out for money
They'll make hut all they can,

Is to try and catch a "MAN".
