Crop of Applies Will Be Large Ex- cept In Southérn and Western Ontarjo--eNova Scotia Will Have | a Record Yield----Okanagan Val- | ley Output Promises to Be Espe- | cially Heavy. Following 'a very mild winter, the spring opened with warm weather in April, giving fruit buds an early start. Since then there has been considerable rain, aceompanied by low temiperatiive." Frosts have been reported' from many localities, some having dome little or no damage, while in other instances the losses will be severe, In the Toronto-Hamlltan district the growers estimaté the losses. to the strawberry crop by frost at 35 per cent, . In the Province of Nova Scotia the season was particularly late and cold, wet weather continuing up to the latter part of May. No complete reports have béen re- ceived regarding conditions In the United States. Full Inquiries will be made during the month of June and the 'information gathered will be included in the July Fruit Crop report. . Applies. --Basing a forecast upon the set of blossoms in the varidus fruit districts of Camada, it ap- péars that the crop will be large, ex- eept in southerg and western On- tario, where it will be only 'half of that harvested last seasgn. Large & heavy' €rop with the. exception possibly of Spies and Greenings FY certain localities, The Province of Nova Scotia will probably have a record crop, and if marketing eonditiong are satisfactory the growers should have g very sue cessful season. In 'the districts of Quebec and On- tario where Fameéuse and McIntosh apples grow extensively, these two varieties have blossomed well and set heavily, British Columbia reports a normal crop, probably about equal to that harvested a year ago. It is impor- tant to bear in mind that many young orchards are coming into bearing in this province, and that the total 'amount of fruit produced will probably increase yearly for some time, The crop in" the Okanagan Valley promises to be heavy. Only those orchards which produced a large crop last year have had a light blos- som. Young orchards which will come into bearing this year with a fair crop will greatly affect the total output, The acreage under tomatoes is considerably reduced this year in Ontario, and many canning factories will not be operated. There has been severe damage by frost in all parts of the province. The supply of tomatoes on the markets this year will he small compared to that of 1914. There is a gengral feeling through- out the couptry that the markets for fruit this year will not be good. The war in Europe, with its depressing consequences, has made fruit grow- ers pessimistic, and we have recejved several inquiries from different parts of the country regarding the possi- bility tof disposing ef fruit at fair prices. At this time it is only possible to make a prediction, which must be more or less vague and speculative® So far as production is concerned, there seems to be every indication of a_ fair crop of all varieties. Whether prices will be satisfactory depends entirely upon the distribution, upon the quality of the fruit dnd upon the extra demand which is created by publicity or by any other ns, There seems to be no mediate cause for the producers. to be dis cou d. Later in e season will be quite soon effoughf' for that, ir there is any need for discouragement at all. In the meantime, Stoders will be doing themselves the it possible service it "take care of thefr crop just ag 'would in an ordinary seasen. If' fruit is of good quality and 1s - wel packed, there is np to doubt that there will" be "a deniand for it at prices which will return the pro- ducer a satisfactory figure.

Water is collected in prepared shallow ponds, where, aft- er evaporation has been completed, the salt is shoveled inte small railway cars, taken to the refining works, re melted and erys€allized out in vacuum It is washed and cleaned. About a year elapses from the time the sea water goes into the ponds until the product is ready for the market, because the evaporation from the sar face of the ponds is only alight twenty- eight inches a year, over and above the natural rainfall, The process usu- ally starts in May or June of each year, so as to take as much advantage as possible of the warm period of the sumier.--Argonaut, Degrees of Pain. There are degrees of palin, as de grees of faultfulness, which are alto gether conguerable and which seem to be merely forms of wholesome trial or discipline. Your fingers tingle when you go out on a frosty meruing apd arg all the warmer afterward; your limbs are weary with wholesome work and lie down in the pleasanter rest; you are tried for a little while by hav- ing to Wait for some promised good, and it is all the sweeter whea jt. comes.

Our ability to personify a sea ship by using the pronoun "she" and to keep the Zeppelin in place as "it" brings out one stropg point of eur language. It is impossible to be so subtie in French, which has. no. neuter, or in German, with its arbitrary scattering of gen- ders. Mark Twain gave as a typieal instance of good German: "Wilhelm, where is the turnip?" "She hax gone to the kitchen." "Where is the accom- plished and beautiful English maiden?" "It bas gone to the opera," Mark went on to observe that in Germany a tree Is ;male, its buds female, its leaves neuter; horses are sexless, dogs male, eats female, including tomeats.

Ninety-two years ago, on the 22nd of May last the foupdations of old Dalhousie College, Hali N.S, at the north end of the Parade, well apd truly laid by the noble Earl and Governor ~f Nova Seotla, whose territorigl appellation it so worthily bears. Im" Jaying its corner stane, Lord Dalhousie declared that the college was to be for "the instrue: tion of youth in the higher classien and 'in all philosephical studies." He made the following additional re« marks with reference tg the new in« stitution: "Its doors will be open to all wha profess the Christian religion. "It is particuarly intended for! those who are excluded from Wind- sor." How splendidly has Dalhousie ful filled its mission, and widened its arms since then! How grandly has it broadened the educational out- look of the province, and broadened itself therewith! Just about 100 years ago Halifax was engaged in fitting out a naval expedition, intended immediately for Imperial purpdses, but which was to have direct loeal consequences of the most momentous importance for Nova Scotia and the great Domin- ion of whiéh it has since become a part. The war of 1812-14 was then on between (reat Britain and the United States. That expedition was directed against Castine, a tortified port in the State of Maine. It was completely successful, Castine--and theréin several vessels, one of them a man-of-war--was, captured. It was held until the close of the war. From this capture came the fund To which Dalhousie College owes its origin. Halifax of a century ago gave not only of its time and means but of its very lifeblood to the founding of Dalhousie. Halifax of to-day is being asked to contribute only of its means for the continuation of the great work so nobly begun by its fathers. At the same time, just about 100 years ago, another and even more important" strcam of vital energy was being compressed and directed unknown to those in control of it, in the direction of future Dalhousie, Pictou Academy was at that time in proeess of organization for the same purposes that Lord Dalhousie, eight years afterwards, formally declared to be those of Dalhousie, namely for untrammelled secular education --- "particularly for those exeluded from Windsor." For King's Col- lege, broad and liberal as is its pres- ent spirit, was then dominated by narrow exclusiveness. The history of the founding of old Pictou Academy, the first non-sec~ tarian College in that province, is one of the loftiest chapters in the whale history of Nova Scotia. It was | named an Academy and not a Col- lege simply because it could not secure proper recognition from the Legislature of that day. How that college afterwards moved, in accord- ance with the exigencies of changing times and conditions, first to Pure ham, them to Truro, and finally to Halifax, whither it brought the blood and vitality for the resuscia- tion of Dalhousie, whose initial spark of life had early darkened, is well known to alk But Tew are aware of the herole efforts, the self-sacrificing and far- seeing struggles which went to the founding of the original Pictou Aca- demy. The poorest men in town and country put their hands deep In their pockets to make its beginning and its continuanee possible. Farm- ers who were undergoing the strug- gles and privations of pioneer set- tlers voluntarily subscribed ten, twenty, or fifty pounds each, for its sustenance---and those were pounds sterling, be it remembered. He it also carefully noted that a hundred or two hundred dollars then, was worth three or four times as much as a like nominal sum te-day. Heroes' Names Preserved.

People may be courteous and defer- ential to each other in a public hail, an elevator or other places, but in a street car all is coldness and self: seeking. Everyone pays his nickel and then it is hustle and crowd for a seat. The weakest go to the hang- ing strap every time. So long as the passengers do mot actually as- sault one another the conductor has no right to interfere.
