—According to a lace Winnipeg der- patch Nicholas Flood Davin has been stumping in his constituency and declares

ity. —The Liber. |s will get the solid New York vo‘e, that is, if the attitude of the

press of that citv is to be taken as voicing public opinion. But the New York vote doesn’t count for much in a

Dominion election.

—Montreal Gazette : the Un »’ papers are not accusing Mr. Chamberiain of bullying President Kruger. There are half a dozen Ameri- cans among the pri-oners, tn whose behalf Mr. Chamberlain is acting. Perhaps this has something to do with the unaecustom ed silence of the United States’ eagle, which is always ready to scream when the British lion growls.

As to taxes, the people ars not troubled about them seeing thst the prices of the goods which they con- sume, io which their taxes are involved, are cheaper they ever were in the history of the country.

But it is to he noted that while the G-its were in office they never relieved the people of a single dollar of taxation, though they stood pledged todo so. On the contrary, they added two and a half per cent to the taritf of duties imposed, and at the same time managed to have a deficit every year after they obtained control of public affairs.

If their fun made the other party angry, the fact is to be regretted.

‘Prospects for Present Season.

‘Information About Unpaid Bal- allces.

Interview With the Agricultural and Dairy Commissioner on the Quilved in Prince Edward Island.

cheese fac- for the

What is the outlook for the tories on Prince Kdward Island coming season ?

From the light stocks of cheese on hand in this country and in Great Br tain, I ex- pect there will be a more active demand fer cheese during the summer of 1896 than existed in 1495.

I think the Directors of the j int stock companies who awume the responsibility of managing the factories them<elves will be ableto net to the patroneq-ite as large oralarger retura per 100 Ibe. of milk than they got when the Government maa- aged the busine-s.

The charge made by the Government fer manufacturing cheese at the larger factories rather more than met the actual expense; and thus they contributed some- what to meet the expense of helping the smaller factories on the Island. Iam confident the Directors of the Companies will find very much less difficulty than they anticipate in carrying on all the branches of the business on theirown re- sponsibility, assisted, as they will be, by Mr. Dillom and the new assistant instructor who has been appointed.

Are the directors and patrons satistied with the arrangements that have been made ?

I fear some of them still prefer that the Government should continue to accept the c mmercial responsibility of running the fac- tories for them. My epinion is that it is better for the dairying interests of the Island and for the patrous who furnish milk to the larger factories that they should now undertake the business for themselves, aided and guided as they will be by the members of the dairy staffon the Island.

What is the Government going to do on the Island this year?

Our Department will undertake the management of ten ot the smallest fac- tories, and also the management of two new factories which are being erected, The directors of those Companies which manage the factories for themselves will have an opportunity of selling the cheese from their factores when I dispose of the cheese from the factories which I manage. A special travelling instructor bas been engaged to visit regularly the factories which the Government does not manage in order that the Directors may be inform- ed of the qnality of the cheese which is being made at them, and in order to give the cheese-makers helpful instruction in any difficulty which they may meet. Our Department will also give the Durectors pots tml of the companies as much information and guidance as possible in the keeping of factory accounts and the pay- ing of dividends on milk. I also arranged with one of the firms in Montreal, who sell dairy furnishings, to send a quantity of these to Charlottetown, where they now are, in order that the Directors of the Companies, or cheese~makers, might pro - cure these for themeelves of the beet quality and at the lowest possible cost.

Why does not the Goveroment accede tothe requests of the Companies and manage the whole of the business on the Isiand, as formerly ?

In addition to the reasons which I gave in the open letters which were sent to shareholders and patrons of the cheese factories, it is wholly out of the aquestior. for the Government to undertake the management of the larger factories on the Island th's year, as no parliamentary ap- propriations have been made which would enable us to assume responsibility or make advances on milk from month to month. Even, if the whole question were to be re-considerei, our Department could not undertake to manage any more fac- teries than-the number I bave named

in the absence of a parliamentary vote re. quired for that purpose. As I have al- ready said, I do not think the dairy in- terests of the Island will suffer in the

least degree by the directors of ihe larger factories managing the business them- selves,

What about the sett’ement ef the bal- ance: on last year’s accounts?

I had hoped to be able to get the tal- ances struck by this date, but some small amounts still remain to be adjusted. The cheese were sold to Messr?. Ho'gson Broa. of Montreal, at prices that were agree! upon, being the highest that could be ob- tained at the time the cheese were sold. In addition to the price agreed uyon, Messrs. Hodgson Bros were to pay over for the account of the patrons of the fac - tories, one-half of any profit which might a crue from the sale of the cheese by them afterwards. It so happens, as the market went, that instead of there being any profit, Messrs. Hodgson Bros. will sustain a considerable loss. However, that falls entirely upon themselves.

A small quantity of cheese was held over in Charlottetown for sale locally, and several hundred boxes of cheese, made at the factories late in October and during November, could not be shipped out safely until about ten days ago. Instead of wait- ing for a _ settlement of the small balances and the full returns from these cheese which were shipped from the Island lately, I think it better to pay the farmers as soon as it can be estima’ed safely, the ever, dollars of the balances which will be coming to them, leaving the final settlement of accounts to be made when the full account sales are received,

As the cheese market last year was the most difficult in which to dispose of cheese, which has come to my knowledge during an experience of some 18 years ia the business, [hope the patrons will uot be disappoiated with the com paratively low returns for the milk fur the last sea» 80n.

Do you expect to visit the Island this season ?

Yes; I intend to go there at least twice; and I hope to pay a first visit during or befure the last week of May, to give such assistances as I can to the Directors, whe will assume the responsibility of man- aging the factories themselves. There is no fear of the dairy business on Prince Ed- ward Island going back this season. In- stead of the aid by the Government being withdrawn, itis merely being shifted into a track, which, [ think, will be as useful and profitable te the farmers ae the work done in the past by the dairying service has been.
