Tha speeches which he delivers to the house boat PREMIER BORDEN’S GESTITRE Entering Parliament from the court-room. the Premier carried with him many of the characteristics of his earlier field of action. I suppose no one who has heard him speak. either in the House of Commons or on the hUStingS. has failed to notice 1his peculiar habit of lifting his shoulders. It is not a shrug. It does not seem to be a. conscious gesture at all. It is simply the persistence of an old habit which was useful in his previous habitat, where his gown kept slipping down as he ar-‘ gued, and it became necessary for3 him to lift it up into position again. Other tricks of manner, too. he brought with him. The gestures of pleading berore a. court. He has ac- quired since his entry into politics. other delsartean movements ‘ with which he presses a point on the at: tention of a political. audience. but these gestures are clearly acquired;’ he is not at home with themâ€"at Beast, not yet. ‘ ' IFINB CHARACTERISTICS or RIGHT HON. PREMIER BORDBN The success achieved by Premier | Borden in England and his notable speeches were in ennaciation of the ‘principle of partnership by the Do- ‘miniOns in great Imperial issues. as ‘a condition of our undertaking as a_ ‘settled policy to help maintain an imperial Navy, have fastened atten- tion anew upon the Premier. Hence a reproduction below of portions of I an entertaining article upon him from the July Canadian Magazine! written by Mr. F. A. Carman, the' brilliant editorial writer of the' Montreal Star, and son of General Superintendent Dr. Carmen, of the Methodist Church, cannot fail to be relished. A motorist, his speedometer regis- tering forty-two miles an hour. came to grief, his car turning turtle and throwing him in the side of the road. Going to the nearest farm- house he called up a certain person ‘ in a village about forty miles away. In a. few minutes his face lit up. “Is that you Peaches ? . . My -car’s in the ditch. . . Yes. all smashed up. . . Oh. just feeling a little stifl‘. . . No. only fourteen miles‘ an hour. That's straight. . . Well ‘ I‘ll try to get the train to-night, but if I miss it .I can't see you till Monday morning. . . Oh, well, I can tail; to you anyhow. can’t I ?" 'E’VERYBODY'S DOING 11‘. Being interpreted, these two little incidents mean that with but tum or three exceptions every farmer in Mariposa township has connection with a rural telephone line. And not in Mariposa only. but within a rad- ius of fifteen miles around Lindsay' the farmers of Victoria County are linked to each other and to the world at large by magic wires. B9- these wires the farmer transacts business. He arranges for getting ‘lielp from his neighbors in harvest- ,ing his crops. He calls up the im- l'plement agent in town when he ‘wants to know how to put a. ma- ‘ chine together. He lets the live ‘ stock dealer know how many cattle 1 and hogs he will‘sell this week. His 1 [wife and daughters hold long gos- ‘ sipy conversations with the neigh- ‘ bors and arrange details for church ’ socials and other pending events just 1 like city folks. .) The farmer has a decided advantâ€" age over the city man in the hatter of telephones. They cos; him has both to install and to muintain.

MOVEMENT HAS GROWN. . l ‘ Around Lindsay there are such] telephones as those in operation at Little Britain, Oakwood. (‘ambray, li‘enelon Falls, Dunsi’ord, and several of the villages farther north. The movement for the organization of these co-operative companies was started about six years ago and since then the number has been ~"ad- ually growing until it has attained its present proportions with about 1,200 rural local telephones through the county. as well as 100 rural telephones of the Bell Company.

There are abOut two hUndreds tele- phones on the several lines ndiating from Oakwood and the central switchboard is in a house 1; the village.

She should not fight until the Government :by which she is commissioned have determined wheth- er she should go into the war." Mr. Borden did not reply. He merely asked another question." “Would our_ ports and harbors be neutral like our fleet." he asked. "until an order-in-coungil has been lam. It was, whatever one may may think of the logical matter. masterly in its logical manner. It had also another characteristic of the law courts. It had been carefully prepared for in the previous debates. Mr. Borden had been able even to put Sir Wilfrid Laurier on the wit- ness stand and draw from him ad- jmissions; which admirably served his jut-pose. The questions were clearly lawyer‘s questions: They were logi-i cally knit together as by bars oi" steel. and they showed keen apprec- iation of the practical aspects of the situation. “Suppose a Canadian ship meets a ship of similar armament and power belonging to an enemy," ask- ed the (then) leader of the Opposi- tion, "will she attack." amount of alsike'is grown around here. and while the acreage is small- er than usual this year the yield .will be heavy.

By that time in many case there was m thing left for than to sow hues- wheat. and the acreage qt buckwheat is excaptionally. large this war. So far the crop promises well. RANCHING IN THE NORTH. Victoria is not noted as a live stock county, but rather as a produc- : or of grain of high quality. There ‘ is a small amount of dairying and 1 what beef cattle are fed are wintered : for grass feeding on the ranches in . the summer. The adaptability of ¢ the northern part of the county and 1 adjacent countis for cattlegrazing , seems to be gaining greater recogni- , tion and several cattle raisers have i been going more extensively into ‘ranching in that section. The move- ‘ ment as yet has not attained any c ‘great proportions but there is a be- c ginning. Pastta'age seems tobe c about the only farm growth that is v suitable for this-rough north coun- a try. and there is no part. of On- s tario where the pastures are more ti hxuriant.
