AGRICULTURE A SCIENTIFIC PROFESSION. Speaking before the anrual con- | ference of agricultural representa- tives at Cobourg last week Hon. Dun- can Marshall, federal commissioner of agriculture, gave a serious warn- Ing against the degenerating tend- encies in Canadian agriculture. | This was due to two things: the fail- jure--of-the native Canadian farmer {to acquire technical knowledge of | farming, and the passing of land holdings to an inferior class of peo- The remedy for this the speak- | er believed was to be found in giving | to the young farmers a practical edu- {eation at technical colleges where scientific agriculture would be | taught, not to the few, but to every farmer's son whose interest could | be aroused. Instead of there being | 600 attending agricultural courses | each year, there should be 3,000. | Hon. Mr. Marshall predicted that {In the future there would be an in- line, and it was most essential that | Canadian farmers master a knowl- {edge that would _ Not all the money Is tied up in tax. . © shable them to get | opiyry of better and uniform results in the | Way of production.

They are stimulating | the interest of the young men in the | different features of their work, but | these young men to be efficient must | have technical training. | There has been a radical change in | the conditions governing agriculture. | The individual farmer can no longer | stand alone.

I., Journal It is'an interesting proposal that was discussed in the course of the social and officfal call on Secretary | of State Hughes by the Canadian | Premier and his Minister of Militia and Defence. The essential part of the explanation to the public made | by Premier Mackenzie King reads as | follows: "World disarmament baving made the important strides it has as a consequence of the recent Wash- ington conference and the leadership given the movement by Secretary Hughes, the present has seemed tof the Canadian government .an oppor- | tune moment in which to approach | the government of the United States | with a view to perpetuating the {ideals which the framers of the Rush-Bagot Agreement had in mind, by having permanency given to the essential principles through their | embodiment in a formal treaty be-| Providence, tween the two countries.' | The Premier expressed himself "well pleased with the sympathetic manner in which our representatives | | were received by Secretary Hughes." | | The visit was concluded with an un- wderstanding that negotiations, "'hav- |ing been opened in this informal | | manner, they will be proceeded with | | by correspondence in the hope of {consummation of a formal treaty at | an early date." { The agreeable incident calls atten- {tion to the unusual character of the [diplomatic instrument which is res- | | ponsible for the unprecedented ard | unparalleled example of an interna- | jtional boundary line three thousand | | miles long naked of armament. That! {has been the situation on the joint | | border of the United States and Can-| ada for more than a hundred years. | At the Washington disarmament Sots | ference it was frequently referred to as a shining example of how {a pre-| serve peace where that is the will of peoples.

The immortal paper is termed an | | "arrangement" in President Mon- | |roe's "proclamation of it in April, | |1818. The British Minister des- | |cribed it as "a sort of treaty." A |treaty on a subject of such conse- {quence would be of greater dignity |and seem more weighty. Put uo covenant in any form ever possessed the elements of a solemn and endur- {ing obligation to a degree greater than has been demonstrated by a experience under the { Rush-Bagot Agreement, Because on {Its face it was hardly more than a diplomatic memorandum, the Presi- dent doubted that ratification by the Senate was necessary. But it was submitted and the Senate approved unanimously. The Agreement established dis- armament and assured its continu- ance indefinitely, subject to annul- ment on six months' notice by eith- er party.
