Swarm-ms, Director of Experimental Farms. OTTAWA. December 27th, 10ID. The samph-s of grain will be sent early but potatoes cannot be distributed until danger of injury in transit by frost is over. No provision has been made for any general distribution of any other scvd than those named. Under instruction of the Hon. Minis- ter of Agriculture another distrbution will be made tnis season. Owing to a very large number oi applications an- nually received, it is not practicable to send more than one sample to each apvlicant,--hence if an individual ru- ceivesa sample of oats, he cannot also receive one ot wheat. barley or pota- toes, .and applications for more than one sample tor one household cannot beentertained. These samples will he sent only by those who apply per- sonally. list ot names from societies or individuals cannot be considered. The distribution will consist as heretofore ot'samples of oats, spring wheat, barley field peas", Indian corn and potatoes A plications should be addressed to the Birector ot Experimental Farms, Ottawa, and may be sent any time tw. tor" the Ist of March. 1001, alter which date the lists will be closed, so that the samples asked for may all be sent out in good time tor sowing. Parties writing will phase mention the Sort of sample they would pvrfer. naming two or thru- tlitf'erent vavi ie, of their choice. Should the available stock oi" all the varieties named be exhausted, l some otlu-r good sorts wiil be sent in.. l stead. l During the past twelve years sam- plt'SUl these writ-ties of grain, te,, which have Sllt'Ct eded best on the ses- eral Experimental Farms have been distributed on application in 3-lh bags, tree. through the mail, to farmersin all parts of the Dominion. The object in View in this distribution has been to add to the productiveness and improve thequalitity of these important agri- cultural pruducts throughout the coun- try, by placing within reach of ewry farmer, Cfare seed ot the most vigorous and pro active sorts. This work has met with much appreciation, and a large measure of success. a book in which he icons the War Mae and the supremo-aneu- of the British ofBeeN sent over here as S. o. C. This hone of the little roughneuw es in the chain which causes some irritation. On examining the public utterances ot our public men, it will be tound that the Premier ot Ontario has steered a very wise and prudent comes between imperialism and the canadtrfor-thsrCanaaians sentiment which exists " strongly in this Pro- vince as elsewhere. The Ross Gov- ernment has kept in mind the neon-ssh ties ot the mothereoantry in its nickel policy ; now it proposesto reward with tree grants of land our volunteers who fought lor the Empire in South Africa. Ontario was bvind Great Britain in her emergency, and will continue to be. It has been a pleasure to demonstrate our dutilul ntll-ction. But beside this imperial feeling in ontaro, strong and true, there is also the teclirur that Can, ads must how out her own destiny, operatinttfrtlly within certain lines. It is worth while to remark that this note ot sturdy Canadianism also tinds expression in Premier Ross’ speeches. Ill: has always in vitsw the basie sooth ment of camuiios-dtanocuatey. Mr. Ross is the countryman of Burns, he who sang "A mais a man for a that. The rank is bat the guinea stamp." The Premier has that couplet in his soul. and his imperialism must not ha confused with anything that would accentuate caste distinctions. It was at a little dinner the other night that tw approved of Mr. Chamberlain’s plan of a consultative council for the Em. pire. It would be a good thing to meet in London and" talk over the affairs ot empire; it would promote esprit de corps ; and might even to- flaenee imperial policy. As tor Can- adian r<-presentntion at Westminster, is tln-rr really any need of it, when our Home of Commons speaks with the authority of six million voices be- hind it y There isjust the possibility, in a House of ow-r six hundred mun bcrs, that six colonial voices might not hr heard Very well. There are name links in the imperial chain that chef: a bit. Even Toronto, nun loyalist Toronto, admits that.
