C. in Toronto Star.) “Well, I dunno, it’s pretty hard to tell ye jest why boys leave the farm, and I guess there are a good many reasons,” said the Retired Farmer. "Mebbe this here Duke business in‘ ‘Toronto ’11 cause lots of young fel- ;lers from the country to come here to live just as soon as he gets a, chance. Ye see the country boys generally comes to Toronto when there’s some big doingsâ€"1 say it’s generally when there's some big do- ings thay they come, such as the exhibition, or the Twelfth of July, or when the Duke comes. He thinks life in the city is all brass bands and Chinese lanterns and fireworksâ€" a place where you can get drunk and nobody’ll go and tell your dad; a. place where you can dodge revival meetings and not have yer conscience poisoned aginst yer conduct. 1)’ye see what I mean ? “ch, I suppose the country boys do come in generally when there’s some big blowout and go home and dream about. it," said the shoemaker “That's it. But the worst thing of all is letting country fellers go back to the country after they’ve been in the city awhile. There ought. to be a. law agln itâ€"I say there ought to be a law agin it. Them’s the tellers that sets other boys crazy to leave the farm. I remember when old Sam Scott died young Sum begin coming in and coming in to 'l oronto until one fall he sold his farm and all his stock and impleâ€" ments and come here to liv.e He got a. job minding a. street car or something like that, and at (brist- Vi ii \‘I mas he got a holiday. Well. sir,| he came back to see us wearing a plug hat, yaller gloves, and. by ging- er, to hear him talk ye'd thing he’d 0 been sleeping with Sir Oliver Mownt i? and all the rest of the big guns. He in knowed them all. Ye couldn’t menâ€"i tion nobody but Sam knowed him'fi and could tell what he said to him la a few days ago. He had a big'roll {a of bills with him and blowed moneyi ‘ in like fury. He said farmers was fools to work away out in the lone- some. far from where cash growed. 'Il‘e went to the soiree in the church 15 and the girls made such a fuss over him that three engagements was broke. He tangled everybody’s harâ€" ness up generally, and the result was that four or five fellers left home and made for the city to get rich. That son of mineâ€"he’s working the old farm nowâ€"~he was feeling just like running away from home, and I could see it and I gave him a talk. It was the morning young Sam was leaving. ‘D’ye see that jude ‘?’ I says to my boy Bill. ‘D’ye mean Sam ?’ he says. ‘I mean the man with a coat and hat like an under- taloer,’ I says, ‘and the necktie like the bow of your sister’s hat, and the vest like a canary bird,’ I says. Bill wanted to know what about him. ‘Well,’ 'I says, ‘he traded off his farm implements for that neck- tie, his horses and cattle for that suit of clothes, and as for that roll of oneâ€"dollar bills he’s been showin’ off with it’s all that's left of the hundred-acre farm his dad left him not long ago. During his little trip down here he spent an acre or two of land, and there ain’t much of it left.’ ‘How d’ye know?’ says Bill. Then I told him how I’d got young Sam alone in the kitchen, pulled him up short on his bragging, and found out he was just squandering everyâ€" thing having a good time. Anyhow, Bill stuck to the farm and he's pretty well ofi now. Young Sam’s1 in the cityâ€"I say he’s still in the city. I see him sometimes but there ain’t no plug hat about him now, nor no yaller gloves. Young Sam’s got purty low with drink and being M!“ l as . '1" VAH‘~.._~ . speaks of big guns by their first name, and is generally found look- ing over the fence whenever any- thing’s going on, and pretending af- terwards he sat next to the chairâ€" man and run the whole shooting match. Ye can’t keep them kind of tellers in the country; the city’s the place for ’em. They's get found out in the country. But I wish’t they’d stay in the city and° not go out up- setting the minds of good boys who match. Ye can’t Keep fellers in the country; place for ’em. They's in the country. But I stay in the city and- :1 setting the minds of g ain't built like them.” A man was arrested in Toronto the other day because he spoke con- temptuously of the Duke of York. He was sent to jail for 10 days. About the case the Star says :-â€"â€" “There is an uneducated mass of people in Toronto who think and speak by means of a limited number ‘of set phrases, which are liberally adorned with profanity. It is pos- sible that this man who is in jail is where he is because of his limited vocabulary. Probably he desired to say that he Was not concerned about the Duke of York, and desiring to Say this, he groped in the ill-furnishâ€" Cd garret {vhere his vocabulary is kept and found one of those stock phrases or expressions which to him answered many purposes. It sounded disloyal to the Deputyflhief of Polâ€" ice, but may only have indiccated a paucity. of language. For instance, had Prof. Goldwin Smith desired to ame sentiment he might have said: ‘I am indifferent to the Duke of York; I am on the street, but I am not seeking him that I may bow or throw my hat up in the air.’ He might have said that in the presence, not of the Deputyâ€"Chief, but of the Chief himself Without beâ€" V ing arrested and thrown into jails ln Gaol For Treason. ?” THE SUNSHINE 0F SUCCESS IS WHAT WE SHOULD AIM FOR. A Catchy Bit of Advice by Chatlie Churner with the Potato for a Text. A potato rolled into a dark cornâ€"- or in our cellar anc'. escaped the eye of the cook. Day after day it. lay there yearning for the light. At last it sent out a. long thin sprout to- wards the windowâ€"to the sunshine. In this Toronto of ours 200,000 souls are looking for the light, for the sunshine, holding back from the dark. But, unlike the potato they don’t always make for the right window, for the one the sun shines 1n. I’m not talking about the sun that shines from the sky now, but that light. that horseâ€"sense. that peculiar something, that boosts, that helps on, that stirs us up to be someâ€" body, that helps us to get there. I’m talking about the Sunshine of Success. That potato reasoned within itself that if the cook didn't, it would. So it did. What is this Sunshine of Success ? Where is the source of this light that is going to help these 200,000 Toronto searchers, if they only steer for the right window ? Some folke are color blind. The poâ€" tato wasn’t. It went for the right Window, the one without a hatchâ€" way, the one that is always open, the one that the sun shines in. It had to get around a box to reach.thc light, but it got aroqnd. And- as tfie spout, lengthened the potato shortened and shriyellod. â€" The body shortens and shrivclls when the grey matter grows. It’s a Sign of life to grow, but it’s 21. sign of horse-sense to grow to the light. _, ._- .. The Sunshine of Success. We all want it; we are all out for it, after it, hoping for it, planning for it we all want to be up. where the big ones are, the heavyweights, the mas- ters in their class, the extraordinarâ€" ics, the great ones.

If he doesn’t, he should. The railway conductor holds his train on a. switch to let the general manager’s special go by, and, taking a new grasp on his punch, maked the hole in the tickets clearer as he says to himself: “I’ll be general manager myself some day." If he don’t he should. The bank clerk sees the manager powerful, yet alert, holding the desâ€" tiny of many a business as by the stroke of a pom-he sees him in his private office conversing with men of money and as he sees him the bank clerk throws away the old Den, takes a new dip and goes over his figures quicker, looks through the wicket with a brighter eye, looks far in the future, and sees himself as manager.

Arm- the right COMMISSIONER CAMPBELL r TALKS ABOUT GOOD ROADS He Says There Has Been 500 Miles of Permanent Roads Made in Ontario This Year. The Globe “The road improve- ment going on the Country is simply marvellous, ” said Mr. .A. W. (amp- bell, Deputy Commissioner of Public Works, yesterday, after several days spent in Western Ontario. ‘Modern machinery is being almost entirely used. Systematic plans are being laid down and followed the appro- priations by municipalities have been wonderfully increased in the last five years, and the very deepest in- terest is being taken in the work by council and people.” Mr. Campbell ‘said he had recently observed in a. number of townships, including Nor- Wich in Oxford, and Bosanquett in Lambton, examples of levelling grad ing and seeding with 5rraSS on the sides of the road, where the farmers were taking particular pains to beau- tify the highway. Mr. Campbell's attention was drawn to a statement in an Ameri- can newspaper that New York State had appropriated $420,000 for road improvement this year; also that 45 miles had been improved at a cost of $367,600, and 122 miles further were undergoing improvement at a cost of $773730. Mr. Campbell admitted that those roads looked rather ex- pensive, but remarked that the pol- icy of New York State had been to first build enormously expensive trunk roads leading to large centres, and that, further, the necessary gra- vel and stone were not nearly $4 iconvenient in New York State as i: [this Province. Here there are but lfew counties that have not all the ‘raw material close at hand, and we are able to build roads much more cheaply. “I should say that in the Province of Ontario this year fully 500 miles of good stone roads will have been built, and this largely by local apâ€" propriation. The people have not yet commenced to take advantage of the recent legislation appropriating one million dollars for road improve- ment Within the next ten years, but as soon as they do much more will be done. Within the past ten years $7,399,449 has been expended for im- p1 oving the roads by the township municipalities This is equivalent to almost 1750, 000 a year which is all raised by direct taxation. Besides this is expended annually in Ontario 1,100,000 days of labor under the statute labor system. BUTTER OUGHT TO BE MADE INSTEAD OF CHEESE No Cheese Should be Made After Novem- ber Firstâ€"Reasons Why Those who read our articles on the cheese industry early in this year, and the reports we published of the speeches made at the Eastern Dairy- man's Accocxation in January, will remember that a very definite wan- ing was sounded with regard to the danger of glutting the cheese marâ€" vet, making fodder cheese and by_ these things breaking the price. This year the Montreal Cheese and Butter Association has again re- turned to the subject and declares that the comsumption of cheese is increasing, and that for that. and for other reasons, daix‘yinen should. turn their attention to making but-- ter. It. declares that no cheese should be made after the first of Kw vember this year. The Board's cir- cular on this subject is as follows:â€" At a. general meeting of the As- sociation held on the 10th inst., it was resolved to issue a circular to the Dairymen of Canada, strongly advising them to turn their atten- tâ€"on to butter more generally, and to discontinue the manufacture of cheese entirely after lst November, for the following reasons :â€" lst. That fodder cheese hurts the consumption, thus diminishing the demand for grass goods and lower- 1 ing its price. .- .I,. r-.. Aha-am :c “"U - -â€" 2nd. That the outlet for cheese is limited, and everything depends on the quality to induce large consump- tion. 3rd. That the consumption of cheese is not increasing. but dimin- ishing, while the consumption of fin- est creamery butter is rapidly gnaw- 4th. That the price of butter is higher on an average all the year round than cheese, for the fmmt’ qualities. 5th. That the manufacture of but- ter is more profitable than cheese,- not only in the comparative price, but in that the farm stock and the land are better sustained. < , â€" 6th. That in order to maintain high prices, there must be a contin. uous supply of finest butter, and as the flow of milk is lessening now, it is more urgent that the quantity, should be kept up as much as ‘posâ€" sible, and to divert the milk from cheese to this article is the only ‘way; to keep up the supply. . 51."; Anna. wu nvvy “r v--- ww“ v Butter should be shipped fresh weekly to command the best price. It is recommended that all factoâ€" ries should be fitted up so as ’to make either cheese or butter. , Cheese should be held three weeks at a. temperature of 60 degrees ‘to ensure proper curing. Serious com- plaints continue to come of cheese being shipped too green. Packages both of cheese and 'bu‘fi- ter are still made of too thin wood: It is a noteworthy fact that. out of the first 25 cases of smallpox report- ed in Ottawa, but one victim had previously been vaccinated, and in' that case the disease was of the mildest possible form5 - . fi aid
