Dr; Vroomanâ€"There are two ways of conducting the canvas : You can either see the (armors at their homes or in public meetings. I think the latter way is best. for it will allow that free exchange of ideas that helps men to form opinions like they cannot when alone. It is hard to get into touch with them when they are busy about their barnyards. Mr. Channonâ€"I agree with that. I think we should do all we can at public meetings. and finish the work by Personal canvas next day. H. J -.

No one will do that without a. guarantee of 100 cows. I understood that it we got 5000 acres guaranteed we would be certain of a metory, but I find that even then we may not get it. But it is our duty to get the beets. that is our share: then it we lose, we lose. I am sorry I could not go to Michi- gan but I am sure I could not have added to the excellent report of the gentlemen who went. County Conunh nonâ€"The county raised to pay u 8300.

When the acreage has been got I do not see whywc should not get a factory considering the high percentage of sugar our beets pro- duced. ' I hope that this enterprise will bury the feeling of rivalry between the country and the town; for now they are united in a business transâ€" action.
