Time tol- SKarlso Rum Maurizioâ€"A meet-.5 ing to take steps toward building a skating and curling rink was held In Jordan’s hall last Friday evening, but; us very brief and iosufiicicnt notice had been given there was rather slim attend- ance. 31.". W. R. )ladill (he isn’t slim) was called to the chair; and, after a committee to prepare a plan and get an estimate of the probable cost had been appointed, the meeting was adjourned until Monday evening next, when it is hoped that the ball will be well filled. Suuvsn Tum! Rumpâ€"On the In- dian excursion yesterday week from Bridge-north to Fcnelon Falls there were several white men who acted so roughly on their way here that constable Nevi- sm, at the request of the captain of the (.'rmulellrt, went back with her as far as Bohelygeon, and on the way arrested three rowdies named respectively Crow- ley, Murray and Herrin, and next mornâ€" ing a kindred spirit named Twomcy (no relation to thc Twomcys of this village) was captured. They were all taken before S. Crabtrcc. J. P., who fined Crowley 310 and 86.05 costs, Murray 86 and $4.55 costs and the other two each 85 and 8355 costs. In the case of Crowley the constable had to get assistance, for which $1.50 was paid. Mr. Crabtree some time ago expressed a determinatirm to severely punish any disorderly conduct on excursion boats, which he rightly cliaraotcrizcd'as ex- ceedingly dangerous to all on board, and we are glad to know that he has kept his word. The four rowdics had to pay big prices for their fun, but all will agree that it serves them right. A Political View of the Case. To the Editor of the Family Herald. .In reply to your enquiryâ€"4‘ Is form? ing more or less profitable than it was ten years ago? What are the reasons ?" â€"I would say that in no time since Confederation has there been so much unrest and dissatisfactiOn among the farmers of the Eastern Townships as at present. Farms have depreciated in value fully one third within the last ten years; in fact, it is almost impossible to dispose of a farm in this country at present. Now, what is the cause of this depression ? Has the tarifl‘ any- thing to do with it? is a question that cycrybody who takes an interest in the future prosperity of this country should carefully consider. We do not get so good prices for the products of our farms as we did ten years ago. Prior to the McKinley Bill becoming law, we did a profitable export trade with the United States, particularly in horses, but Since the demand has fallen off, we have a large number of surplus horses on hand that are unsalcablo. The prices of almost all the surplus productions of our farms are regulated by foreign demand. It makes little dilfercnco to us farmers financially whether there is consumed in the Do- minion annually one or ten million lbs. of cheese, so long as the demand in England regulates the price here. What is true in regard to cheese is also true in regard to other staples. It is absurd to say that the N. P. has given us a home market for the products of our forms when so large a proportion of the people are engaged in agriculture. ()ur income, as a nation, must consist largely for years to come at agricultural exports. Should thcsc exports cease for a few years only national bankruptcy would take place. I fear that the people will lind when it is too late that they have killed the goose that laid the golden egg. . To make farmng more profitable it is uct‘csml‘y to chcapcn the cost of pro- duction. It is unreasonable and unjust that we should be taxed from twenty to forty per cent. for most of the manu- lncturcd articles we use. Whilst we have vacant farms in all directions, there is no inducement, under present cmditions, for our young men to engage in firming, and the consequence. is that In 'y are leaving the country. I make this assertion without fear of contradict- ion, that one: lull of the youth that luvct an! to their majority within the list bitten yours in township of Mol~ bvurne, Co.

Forcing Vegetables by Electricity. t employment in horticulture. Spring vegetables are already being forced by its aid for the market. doubt that roses and other flowers can be made to bloom 'more plentifully and more profitably with its assistance. In ‘ susceptible to the influence of the elec- tric light, by means of which it can be grown for market in two-thirds the usual length of time. Otllcl‘ vegetables respond, likewise, in varying degrees. But everything depends upon the pro- per regulating of the light, and how to do this can only be learned by careful study of the results produced under all sorts of conditions. The efi'ects of elec- tricity being to hasten maturity, too much of it causes lettuce to run to seed before the edible leaves are formed. It must not be imagined that electri- city is cmploycd for such purposes as a substitute for sunlight. It is merely used in a supplementary fashion. The greenhouse that has the sun in tho day- time is illuminated at night with arc lights, toward which the plants incline their leaves and flowers, accepting quite innocently these artificial counterfeits of the orb of day. It was supposed hitherto that vegetables required inter- vals of darkness for their health and development, just as animals need sleep, but it has been shown that, supplied with electric rays, they will go on grow- ing thriftin between sunset and day- break; staying up all night seems to do them no harm, so long as the dissipation is properly regulated. The electric gardener employs opal globes to dimin- ish the intensity of the light. When it is left bare and admitted to shed its unfiltered rays upon the plants, the latter grow pale, run up quickly in sticky stalks, and soon die. It remains to be discovered exactly how much electricity is beneficial, and during precisely what period of the development it ought to be applied. The influence of electricity upon the color and productivcness has- been shown to be extraordinary. Tulips exposed to its light have deeper tints, flowering more freely, and developing longer stems and bigger leaves. Fuch- sias bloom earlier under like conditions. l’ctunias also bloom earlier and more pi'oqucly, growing taller and more slen- der. It is the same way with many other flowers. In fact there is every reason for believing that the electric light will be very profitable used in future as an adjunct to forcing establish- ments for both flowers and green veget- ables. A woman has been sentenced in Paris to penal servitude for life for killing her husband by pouring kerosene on his clothing and igniting it. Guinea fowls are so extremely sensa- tivc, alert and noisy that they make the poultry yard and quarters too public for the sly fox. and scare away the hungry hawks. They are worth their keep as watchmen. ‘ A raft of logs, said to be the largest that ever crossed the lakes, was taken a few days ago from Parry Sound to Bay City, Michigan, by the tug Sea Gull. There were 6.000 logs in it, and the value was $05,000. An ancient walnut tree is growing in the township of Kingston, near Ganan- oquc. 'l‘hc branches cover eighty feet. The walnut was planted by the mother of John Brewer the day before he was born on April 29th, 1789, ranking the tree 103 years of ago last April. Mrs. Brewer went to a Quakers' meeting in Third town, now Adolphustowu, and while there got two walnuts. When she got home she planted both, and only one grew. It is the tree mentioned. A young man namml Hope, employ- ed in the Dominion Bank at Whitby, lost two tooth in a rather peculiar man- ner on Sunday afternoon. l-lenry Vic- ars was trying to take a stick from Hope’s dog, when the dog suddenly let go, the re-nction causing Vicars's arm to fly back and hit Hope in the mouth, knock~ in; out a pair of his front teeth. The dog was the only one in the party who took the affair at all complacently.
