The Exhibitions Reviewed.

LETTER FROM DR, J. T.

To the Editor of the Examuner.

Sir,—I propose, with your permission,

oecupying as little of your valuable space as possible, to review the recent Dominion and Provincial Exhibitions. 1 write in no censorious or cavilling spirit, nor with in- intent to weund the feelings ef those en- gaged in the management ef those Exhi- bitions, yet fearlessly to expese what I con- sider to be errors and defects, with the hope that on future occasions the errors may be avoided and the defects remedied ; neither do I arrog.te to myself superior knowledge, but feeling a deep interest in agricultural matters, and having taken a more or less active part in Exhibitiens for nearly a quarter of a century, my opinions may have some little value,—at all events I give them. a.lowing the public am oppor- tunity ef judging of their werth. The Dominion Exhibition coming first im point of time as well as in importanee, de mands first congideration—and here I must give due credit to our Loeal Government for their very liberal and judicious efforts in forwarding the interests ef exhibitors, and enabling the Island to take the pre-eminent position she holds, and of which all Is- landers are justly proud. Nor must I omit to award the praise so well earned by our Commissioners — Messrs. Longworth and Gardiner—for their active and unflagging exertions to make the Island exhibit a suc- cess, They could not expect to please every one nor to avoid a few mistakes, but I think they performed an extremely ardous and unenriable office very creditably.

I will now take up the Halifax catalegue and before I have gone through it I will point out so many grave errors—se much inconsistency and such marked selfishness, as will prove to the Dominion the necessity before again giving a large grant of public money, of appointing an efficient director-

JENKINS. /

- late to supervise the work of the Local Com-

mittee, and to lay down rules fur the just distribution of the money.

Before proceeding further I will state what in my judgment. are the objects te be kept in view im making out a list of prizes, and the just principles to be eon- sidered in alloting the amounts. The first and mest important object is to encourage the farmer and fisherman to produce articles and animals of superior merit, to stimulate the invention of the mechanic, especially in labor-saving machines, and the enterprize of the manufacturer, in the production of all goods to the successful manufacture ef which our country pre- sents no insurmountable obstacles,—from the self-binding reaper down to buckets and brooms and even to paper bags. Every dollar sent away for an article that can be produced at home, is se much lost to the community. We are a food pro- ducing people, and we require that best of all markets, a home market. This can be obtained only by encouraging home manu factures. With a healthy climate, food so much cheaper than our neighbors have it, coal obtainable at small expense, and with the improved winter communication which we must never cease agitating for till we get it, 1 see no reason why we should not in time have a large manufacturing popu- lation. By successfully carrying out the first object, you have an attractive Exhibition, which will attain the second, i. e., the bringing together a large number of exhibitors and visitors, who have an opportunity of exchanging views, of obtaining and imparting information, and, last but not least, of enjoying for a short season the pleasures and advantages of enlarged social intercourse. The prin- ciple en which the amounts in prizes are allotted, I think, would bear reference,— first, to the cost and difficulty of producing an article or rearing and animal, the in- creased expense of fitting the animal for the probable risk, the vertain worry and anxiety inseparable from conveying him to, and maintaining him at, the Exhibition ; and secondly, to the benefit, present and prospective, which the exhibitor is likely to derive from taking a prize. Now, I maintain that a horse should have a larger prize than any other animal, not because, as some may be inclined to say, 1 am interested in horses, but for un- deniably good reasons—he is more costly and difficult to rear and he is bred in smaller numbers than ether ani- mals, consequently the breeder can- not multiply the benefit of taking a prize by selling «a number, as he may do in cattle and especially in sheep. On the same principle the exhibitor of an implement should, in most cases, be award- ed a diploma rather than a meney prize, the advantage to him of taking a prize being the sale of hundreds, possibly thou- sands, of the articles he exhibits. I will here {remark that I, think manufacturers should have prompt aid and encouragement in the exposition of machinery, even thovgh it be mot in a class for which a prize is offered. Iam led to make this remark from the treatment experienced at the late Provincial Exhibition by Messrs. Lepage & Dawson, when-they not only got no aid or encouragement, but were actually denied access to the grounds for their excellent thresher and cleaner, except on payment of &ve dollars. Such shert-sighted illiberal- ity is a blunder ef the worst kind. This letter has extended itself to an ex- tent which I did not anticipate, so I will defer further notice of the Exhibition for a future issue. Yours truly, J. T. JENKINS. Ch’town, Oct. 26, 1881.

Thanksgiving day was pretty generally observed here. An interesting sermon was delivered by the Rev. Archdeacon Read ia the Church of England.

Farmers are busily engaged at securing their potato crop, which is not so large as that.of last year. Several schooners are being loaded here. The prices are 35 to 40 cents per bushel.

Axother fishing season is over, and fishermen are contemplating the future prospects of their business. The first of the season was rather discouraging ; but our fishermen, who possess the patience of Job, did not despair, and were reward- ed in the end with a few very goed catches. It is generally understood by all men who have avy knowledge of fish- ing that the scarcity of mackerel was caused by the enormous number of lob- ster traps which line our shore during the greater part of the fishing season, ‘There is no doubt that such is hurtful to the fishing interest, and unless steps are taken io ‘prevent it, fishermen will be ccmpelled to collect their fishing gear and leave the coast.

NEWS NOTES.

The Bishop of Saskatchewan having crossed ever # large portion of the North- West in his recent tour, speaks as highly of its capabilities as Professor Macoun and ether travellers, and has brought to Winni- peg from west of Fort McLeod some ex- cellent specimens of eoal.

Two Iowa youths read the published biography of the noted James brethers, and cencladed that they were themselves destined to shine as highwaymen in the West. They proceeded to wreck a train, causing the death of the engineer. Their purpose was to rob the train and help themselves onward with the preceeds, but they have ingloriéusly landed in gaol. So much for the perusal of pernivious litera-

tuiby boys.

The Russian Government is trying to persuade the Jews from emigrating to America and to settle them as peasant farmers in the Provinces of Kherson and Ekaterinoslov. The poor Jews are, it seems, worth keeping, although their tormentors are in many cases allowed to attack them with impunity.

In the nine months ending with the last day of September this year, England exported 4,977 horses, of which 5,256 went to France. The number was greater than was exported iu either 1879 er 1880. The value of exported horses was this year £304,810; last year it was £222,571 ; and-in the first nine moths of 1879, £224,106.

The citizens of New York are getting seriously alarmed by a prospect of the failure of the water supply. The police authorities are taking extreme precau- tions to prevent a waste of water, and the wells are watched night and day. One week's steady rain is now needed to ensure the city against the distress and disease which must essue if: there isa shrinking of the water.

Mr. Angus McLeod. the Halifax col- lector of Inland Revenue, who was re- cently suspended, has been committed for trial at the Supreme Court charged with serious defaleation.. The Halifax branch of the Inland Revenue Depart- rent has been singularly unfortunate. Six years ago the then Collecter of Cus- toms disappeareed two years ago another collector was dsimissed for misconduct, and new comes the present difficulty.

From a resume of the lumber trade,

it will be seen that in the Georgian Bay section during 1880, more than 1,649,000 saw _ logs

were produced, besides other timber. This:wi!ll be greatly increased during the next season, the whole quantity expected being 434,000,000 square feet. In the Ottawa district the oatput has been much less, not more than 7,000,000 cubic feet. This was owing to the lowness of the water caused by the drought is a conse- quence of which a number of logs of this year’s drive were hung up. These will be floated down next season. Prices have an upward tendency, partly owing to the increased demand, partly to the enhanced cost of production on account of the rise in wages, and in prices of supplies.
