The State of New York, which is about to spend $100,000,000 in improv- ing the Erie Canal, will vote the C(lmln! fall on a by-luw to raise $50,000,000 for a complete system of State roads, ‘ and the Montreal Star, in an article on I the subject, says; “ Fifty millions invested in good roads for the neighboring State of New York will put both Ontario and Quebec on their metal. It will never do for us to have a conspicuous difference between the highways of New York and those of the bordering Canadian Provinces. , This Would amount to a handicap on our farmers which might easily throw them behind in the race; for a poor road between a farm and its market is equivalent to a tax upon the marketing would be of its produce. Our farmers no worse off if they had to pay a duty New York competitors would be free. Enough care has not been taken of rural roads on any part of this conti- nent, and the least sufferers from this will not be Found in Canada. We should have been readier to subsidise good Waggon reads rather than multi- tudinous railroads, for the wag-zen road and the railroad are links in the some chain, and it is fully to strengthen the one while neglecting the other. We should equip ourselves with far better roads than we have in any case, and this will become doubly necessary when the state on our southern border has spent fifty millions of dollars upon the betterment of its roads.” Vegetable Growers Orgâ€"anizing.

Or uanizcrs will be sent out during this month to towns and cities, with the ob« jcct; of forming branch associations; and these organizers will be members of the Association, who are leading market gardeners in the vicinity of Toronto and Hamilton. The Association has a Gov- ernment grant this year of $850. lt pur- poses using this money to hold a large .,convcntion For vegetable growers at the time of the l-lorticultura-l exhibition in Toronto next November, and also offer- ing prizes for elarge vegetable exhibit at this show. The prize list for the show has been already completed. The constitution ‘of the Association provides for the formation of branch associations. The Vegetable growers in the vicinity of any town or city may organize a branch association, for which the membership the is $1.00. The presidents. of LliOSG branch associations; become directors of the Provincial associations, and have their expenses paid while attending meetings of its executive. The branch associations. are expected to pay the Provincial association 40 cents for each of their members, which makes all mem- bers of‘ the local associations members of the Provincial association. The Pro- vincial association sends all its-mem- bers copies of the annual report of its convention, a monthly magazine, which is the official organ of the association, and other printed matter.

So there must be some good people here. The two threshing machines from Cameron, Dunn’s and Perrin’s, have been in this section threshing, and dur- ing those warm days they made all the men work hard enough to keep them- selves warm.

Mr. John Skuoc, of Bury’s Green, had the misfortune to have his house and most of the contents burned one night last week, the cause being a dirty chimney, which must have been smould- ering some time before it broke out. Another new stone quarry is being put into operation about 25,3;milcs north of‘Fcll’s station. All the section men from Cameron to Holiburtcn have been called on to help lay the new track for the siding.

A- GOOD Sermonâ€"Ne institution of" learning in Canada enjoys greater pub- licity or stronger public confidence than the Central Business College of Toronto“ The Principal, Mr. W. H.

The fall session begins on Sept. 5th, as per; card in this issue. WORSE THAN Ir LOOKEDâ€"On tho- lst inst.
