...-The Ontario Legislature 'v ill meet
on. February 4th, prepared for the
writ k of the session..

--An energetic campaign is being
waged by the staff at the Oritario
Agricultural College against impure
seeds. Farna.ers are being advised and
warned against weeds, impure or bad
seeds, and scientific ef'f'orts are being
made to put the seed grain of Ontario
on a pure basis, The bulletins of the
Agricultural College are interesting
and, helpful, and should be read by
every farther.

-We are now well on into January,
the first month of a new year. Last
year we made many mistakes. Shall
we avoid these this year ? Or shall we
go on, multiplying the errors of the
past, as the years roll by ? New
resolutions are fashioxlable at the be-
ginning of a year, but frequently are
S0011 forgotten. Let the endeavor to
do better be ever before us, and con-
Stant watchfulness remind us of the
past, and also of our new resolves.
Otherwise,1913 •will be as much marred
as other years, .by words and deeds
that ought to have been different.
There has been some talk in eer-
rain quarters about the Dominion
Government being forced to appeal to
the country on the Navy question,
The desire seems to come from certain
defeated candidates, who imagine that
an election would give them another
chance to get back. The Government
evidently has no intention of appeal-
ing to the electors just now, nor would
it be wise to do so. Sir Wilfrid
Laurier has decided that obstruction
by the Opposition to such an extent
as to force an election would be very
unwise, and would not advance the
prospects of the Liberals regaining
control of the Government,
-a-Bradstreets, a leading financial
journal recently had an article dealing
'with the prosperity of Canada, We
quote from the article referred to, the
followitg :-
"Oontinued prosperity" is a phrase
that bas become almost monotonous
to Canadians, yet it best describes the
financial and commercial situation in
Canada as the year 1012 closes. This
country, which a few yearsago, was
-thought of by the average foreigner as
'the north,"ecich-only ; in furs and
fisheries,. produced 205,001,000 bushels
of wheat in 1912, and her crops alone
were worth between $500,000,000 and
000,000,000. Most of her prairie soil is
virgin yet, only one-eighth of an arable
200,000,1500 acres being under cultiva-
tion. The country is fiilling up, close
to 500,000 emigrants arriving during
the year, and they of a desirable type.
There exists no reason why Canada
should not make proportional expan-
sion during the opening year, and
there is every indication that she will,
Much of the formative period of the
country is to come, but a good deal is
past. Every dep,xrtioent of Canadian
enterprise looks to 1913 with opti-
mism."

To The Editor, Winghain Advance.
Dear Mr. Hall: --On page 5 of the
"Advance" dated January 2ad you
have an article headed "Hogs immune
from/Cholera," with special reference
to the use e,nd application of Ameri-
can sera for the immunizs,tion of hogs
against the .disease known as hog
cholera,
have therefore taken the oppor-
tunity of informing you that regard-
ing these preparations, the Govern-
ment has taken a very decided stand.
The Department of Agriculture at
Ottawa ie satisfied that these sera
Whilst producing an actual immunity
in the individual subjected, enables
the animal to become what is under'
stood as, a "chronic carrier" of the
disease. I,: consideration thereof an
Order in Council has been passed pro-
hibiting the sale and use in Canada
of an alleged protective sera, virus
and vaccines against the disease
known as Hog Cholera.
Although this letter to you is not
exactly official it is authentic and cor-
detail and you have perfectly
lake whatsoever use you

Messer. The President, Mrs, Peten
King, was in the chair. Miss .Cora ]X r
Messer read a report of the rec rat
Provincial convention held in Toro' 'as
at which dela etes representing •2
g. �p g �::
thousand of the best women in Ontario
discussed topics of such vital impor-
tance to the nation and home as -im-
migration, the result of the school
child, the terrible problem of the
feeble-minded, agricultural and do-
mestic' education in the schools, in-
justices of Canadian laws concerning
women and the responsibility of the
society for neglected children: Mrs.
11. Dianxoud then read an excellent
paper on "`How to keep well and
happy," showing how the old cencep-
tion of sickness as a visitation of
Providence had given, place to the
scientific study of its causes which
throws on the individual to a -,large
extent, they responsibility for hig,own
health. She then showed bow hdsl,lth_,
and happiness can be presery ` by
such simple means as fresh at un -
shine, good food, sanitary condi ansa
in the home and community, in-
telligent diet, regular rest and
recreation and . kindliness and op-
timism in one's point of view.
The President enlarged on this sub-
ject of optimism by a paper on "The
,Bright Side" showing that in spite of
the evil and wrong that are heard of
every day and tend to give on a
gloomy view of modern life, ten .times
as much good is being done which
does not get into the news reports be-
cause evil is unusual, therefore sensa-
tional, while good is so common as to
cause no comment. Among the good
works now carried on, she laid special
emphasis upon the campaign to
stamp out the white plague, a disease
which has brought sorrow to nearly
every home, but which is gradually
being driven out by the tokens of
generous and devoted people. An-
other bright paper entitled "Odds
and Ends" was read by Mrs
Messer and the meeting discussed
plans for holding an oyster supper in
aid of the work carried on by the
National Sanitarium Association men-
tioned in Mts. King's paper. The
next meeting will also be held at the
