ONT., FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 3, 1915. §; § NOTES and COMMENTS A message to the farmers of Canada appears on page 3 of a hard pook prepared Ry the Department of. Agriâ€" culture, Ottawa, for increased pro. duction from the laf_nd. The message says in part, "Approx,mately twenty millior men _ have been mobilized in Europe. _A large proportion of these have been withdrawn from the farms of the countries at war. Even in neuâ€" tral countries large rumbers of food producers have been called from the land to be ready for emergencies. Tt is difficult for us to realize what will be the effect on food production through the withdrawal â€"of several million men from all the great agriâ€" cultural countries o'f Europe. _ â€"These millions . cease to be producer;s, they have become consumers, worse still, they have become ‘destroyers of food. try, and the clearing of the land will leave according to all reports, a fine area of rich agricultural land ready for settlement and immediate cultiâ€" vation when the war is over." It is expected that about $00 alier ;prisonâ€" ers will soon be on their way to this new farm. It is eaid that the majorâ€" ity of the prisoners are young men with no family connections, while a few have families ir Ontario centres who will be looked after by the Fedâ€" eral Government. in. response to ‘the appeal of the Federal authorities for more land in Ontario for the accommodatio=_of intctned aliens, the Provincial Covâ€" ernment set aside 2000 acres more in a block north of Fort William »t4 Port Arthur. The \Province retains lcontrol of the land by arraisgâ€"ment with the Militia Department similar to ‘that made in the location st n l0 some time ago, where 500 intern.d Germans and Austrians are now at work _clearing the lend.. Tt fits. in splendidly with my plans," said the Minister of Lands ‘‘for the opening up and settlement of this great counâ€" â€"The York County! Council last week Ihad under consn‘deition a suggestion looking to some réform which would increase the eï¬iciéncy of the rural public schools of, the county. A scheme for ths o:bnsolivdation of the smiailler! schools with a view to a highâ€" er standard of efficiency was suggested which elicted some sensible discussion. Doubtless a reform in the direct‘on indicated would be very desirable in many districts, Dufping the past genâ€" eration a great change has passed over the rural séhools of the Proâ€" vince. Thirty or forty years ago, the attendance at the public schools was large, with a high percentage of the pupils from filteen: to eighteen years of age. Now the attendance is generâ€" ally small often varying from halfâ€"aâ€" dozen to a dozen and a half, and pupils leave school young. Such schools as suggested in the Council last week would give pupils a betser chance than the smaller gchools conld give. The Consolidation scheme if carriedâ€"to a_ successful â€" conclusion, would undoubbtedly. give better educaâ€" tional results.

In the fall of 1914 many dairy cows dried off somewhat earlier than usual on account oï¬ séarcity of feed. Others stopped m&llia; because their owners have let thom get the habit of putting up their shutfers at the same time that the cheese factory boarded up its windows. \However long the p :â€" iod of ret may have been, <ix weeks or four months, cows w1 soon |s ready for business as usual during 1915.. Now thei point arises, can the period for won% be extended?.â€" That means careful gpreparation in a: varâ€" lety of ways. & â€" _ Chief Justice Meredith dismissed an application, last ?week, for the reâ€" leasc of an Ausrbria.fl: who was arrested some time ago an a charge of being a spy. The Austrian claims that he is a naturalized British subject hayâ€" ingâ€"lived in Carada for nine years. His lordship in refusing_toâ€" release the Austrian, a military prisoner, said, ‘‘It . should be plain to every. one that in the stress and danger to the life of any xiation at war, the courts‘ should be. excceedingly careful not toâ€" hamper the actions af those expressly charged with the safety of the nation. _ It is not a time when the prisoner is to I;avé the benefit of the doubt. Itb is h timeâ€" when in all things, great or 7‘ésmall, the country must have every p»i}ssible advantage."’! The Chief J’ustice‘,ér further expla.lned{ that under the eleienth section of the\ ‘‘War Measures Act," no cn: under | arrest as an alien‘“k enemy shall be alâ€"] lowed out on bgil. If the man is a | British subject he should not be deâ€" tained, but probaBly that matter will | have to be seLl‘le-d,f-ffby the Minister of Justice. x# 1 | It has‘ been said and probably with some shade of dixthority that there will be no dissolution of the British House oï¬;\ Comwm%)s until after the war is o%fyer, ho T~V‘er long the war both parties that by agreement their may lantf?f?, Be it said to the credit of political .giï¬erencesi;}; have been buried, and hay6@%been allowed to remain so during the great erisis. _ Canadian statesmen _ would do well to follow the lead. of Britiéh statesmen and show Com® lite soI'd_ér*ity oi the Canaâ€" dian parliament in f?ilandling the presâ€" ent tremendous issiiles.
