Canadian Farm has been receiving from its readers a large number of re plies to the inquiry “What should the Dominion Government do for Agri- culture?” A few weeks ago the Gazette published one of them, and now takes pleasure in reproducing a couple more. Mr. J. W. Taylor of Montreal writes : “There is no uSe trying to have the government legislate to keep the young folk on the farm. That depends entirely on the parents. If they try or only half try to show their children the pleasures and profits of farm life, giving them an interest in stock and crops, letting them learn the value of a dollar made in that. way by letting them spend it themselves instead of taking it away from them to help buy theirrboots, many more of the young people would stay on the farm. I had an egrample last year that illustrates this from another standpoint. I was driving through Sta-nstead county with one of my agents and stopped at a nice farm house, asked for the owner, and-was directed to the other side of ' the hill where we found the farmer at work. We asked him if he did not want a good fence for the road-side. Well, yes, he did, but he wouldn’t buy this year, as he was not sure that the boy was going to stay. I asked'tlle reason and he said, “ We had an argument last night and I guess the boy will go. He wanted to take the horse and buggy to go down to the Village, and I suppose give his girl a drive, and I would not let him unless he would bring'back a sack of salt. That he would not do.” I asked him how many of a family he had. “ Oh, only the one,” he said, “and he will be 21 next drive minus the salt.” Mr. Taylor’s suggestion deals with the duty of parents instead of with Mu. .hx~..uaw~.n TWWW‘EJLYH " ._ ____ . ._._.....-...~....._.._s...._._ Hymeneal. A pretty but quiet wedding took place at St. Aloysius' church, on W'edâ€" nesday morning, 23rd inst., when Miss Agnes Power, of Fenelon Falls, daughter of the late John Power, became the bride of Mr. Wm. McCarthy, of Hastings. At nine - o’clock the bride entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. John Power of Peterboro. Miss Hand, who presided at the organ, played the wedding march. The bride was attired in her travelling suit of navy diagonal serge, with hat to match, and was assisted by her cousin, Miss Lillie Power, in white embroidered mull, with black hat, while Mr. Timothy Crowley of Hastings supported the groom. After the ceremony, which was performed by Rev. Father Galvin, the bridal party repaired to the home of the bride, where a dainty luncheon was served, only the immediate relatives and friends of the bride and groom being present. The bride was the recipient'of numâ€" erous pretty and useful presents, linen, china, silverware, etc., including a silver tea set from the groomsman, and a large rocker, upholstered in leather, the gift of the bride‘s former fellow eni- ployees at Townley Bros. The grooms gift to the bride was an amethyst brooch, set with pearls; to the bridesmaid a gold necklet with amethyst pendant; and to the groomsman gold eufi links. Atelegram of congratulations was re- ceived just after the ceremony from the groom’s sisters in Buffalo. The happy couple left on the evening train, amid the usual shower of confetti, for a trip to Toronto, Peterboro and Midland. On their return they will re- side in Fenelon Falls. On Tuesday evening Miss Power's shop-mates at Townley Bros. gathered at her home and presented her with a large rocker, upholstered in leather, and the following address, which was read‘by Miss Lizzie Deyman: Fenelon Falls, Nov. let, 1910 Dear Aggie,â€" With feelings of regret as well as joy, we, your fellow workers in the shop, have met with you here this evening. While we view with much pleasure your approaching marriage, and one and all of us wish you every joy, happiness, peace and prosperity, it is with regret also, as we know we have lost a kind ‘shop mate, one who was always kind and good to us both in word and deed, and we felt that we could not let this occasion pass without presenting you with something tangible to remember us and the old shop by. We therefore ask you to accept this chair, not for its intrinsic value, but in some small way, at least, to show you the appreciation in Which you are held by us, and the good will we all have. ing accounts he paid: Thos.
