The Toronto World says:--TIt is alk very well for the Globe to crow over the testimony of English scientific visitors to the Guelph' agricultural college. Nobody disputes the fact that much is to be seen there, for much. public money of Ontario has leen spent there. Every good farmer would buy good aattle if he had the money to do it, and he would put up good buildings too if the Province paid the bill. What is of more moment to know is, whether, for the money spent by Ontario, this province gets any re- turn, and if so, what ?
