He wan thrown a life preaerven and a. few minutes later taken aboard and brought: to Brockville, {no thoroughly exhanrsted condition El: life was saved.

A discriminating writer persistently says that well-equipped farmers who have lands adapted to potato growing will grow them by the hundred acres and with profit. even though prices should be low, while those who cannot afford to own an outfit of machinery will quit raising them for market. The man who plants and harvests by hand labor cannot compete in raising for the market with the one who plants and harvests with machines any more than the wheat grower who sows by hand and harvests with a cradle can compete with the grower who runs a feeder and a self- binder.
