Granville Notes.

We are havinga very backward spring aod our farmers are anxiously waiting for the lacd to dry sufficiently to enable them to commence eeeding operations.

Captain Dan McLeod is busy fitting out his sloop Wide Awake for the season’s fishing. He is having a complete set of sails made for her and is having her paint- ed in first-class style. Judging frem the captain’s remarks Wide Awake will figure highly in the annual regatta in July.

Mr. D. A. Sharp, nurserymar, of Sum- merside, spent last week in Granville. While here he pruoed and grafted quite a number of orchards.

Mrs. Wm. McKenzie and family leave today for Peperell, Mass., to join Mr. Me- Kenzie, who has sscured a lucrative posi- tion at that placc. They are accompanied by Miss Georgina Corbett, who intends spending the summer in New Bedford, Masse.

The roads and bridges in this section are in “‘a most deplorable condition” aod our government is doing little or nothing towards having them made passable, A few patch-work jobs are being let, evident- ly for the purpose of quieting a few of the many hangers on, acd the materials used in these jobs are a fair sample of the gov: ernment that let them,, viz old poles and rotten planks.

A few of the “old faithfule” met in Granville Hali on the evening of the 4th inst., and formed what the Patriotcalls a “Liberal Association.” But those who were the leading Liberals (Grits) a few years ago, were conspicuous by their absence, there being barely a quorum present aod the mejority of them not be. longivg to the pol!, in fact there were 80 few present that a number, of absentees we e appointed to office and nota single resolution commending the action of our Provincial Governmeaot was even epoken of, reminding one of the lines of the poet on “A Truthful Tongne,”

“And where it could not praise was chained.”

Heirlooms Sold.

Lonpon, May 11.—The sale by auction of the Peel family heirlooms drew a fash- ionsble crowd yesterday, among which Sir Ropert Peel, ming!ed, gaily watching the heirlooms knocked down to curio dealers. Among the bidders were Lord Rosebery and the Roihechilds, but dexlers predomi- nated. The most valuable part of the collection will come under the hammer tomorrow. The sale was chiefly statuary aod furniture aadrealized about £8,000. The chief item was Chantrey’s bustof Sir Walter Scott, which brought £2,250. The pictures are expected to run much higher. There are rare Van Dycks and others on the list.

| the next (bat our shippers must pay fifty | percent more for the privileg? than they | did ander the “extravagant and unbusiness

like” Conservative arrangement. Mr. Fish- er’s excuse is that he could not be expected | to foresee the war. And thisis a good ex- , cuse —for Mr. Fisher. He is not in the Min- istry as a prophet, but as a farmer and a | pro ibitionist ; and it is not his business | to foresee anything {tut “the early and | the latter rains, and the best way of pre- } venting the Temperance movement from

| colliding disastrously with the Govern~ meat. No one will accuse him of failing in this latter respect. The man who

managed the plebiscite farce could give “ David Harum ” points in the horse- trading business. More than that, Mr. Fisher knows that the spriog is the time to sow and the autumn is ithe time to reap; and that the gentle hen can not only be led to the chicken feed, but can be made to swallow it, whether it has an appetite oi the dys~« pepsia. Nowthis is enough for one man to know ; and it is unfair to ask that he keep tab of foreign politics as well.

Of course, most ordinary persons whose minds were not overloaded with kid- gloved farming information, might have thought that the time to renew those cold storage contracts was when the old ones expired, and might likewise bave nct'ced that a war cloud hung over South Africa.

But one man cannot do every~ thing, and that is where Sir Wil. frid made a mistake, He

should not try to overwork Mr. Fisher just because he is a farmer and accuss tomed «to get up with the hired man and “do chores” after sundown. He ought to let some other member of his aggregation of talented business experts attend to any sigaing of papers wkich may technically belong to Mr. Fisher’s depar ment. The worthy Alva farmer probably thonght that if he signed those contracts hastily, he would havea hay reke anda sewing machine delivered at his farm one of these days, together wit b a fat promiseory note.

The consequence is that our shippers py 50 per cent. more for their cold stor- age,to say noothing of the advance in freights. A little business method would have saved ue thie. But Farmer (?) Fisher probably figured ic out that having reaped one set of contracts, the groued should lie fallow for awhile. Sir Wilfrid should give hima clerk who understands bcok-keeping and has had experience in keeping a sieady supply of canned goods on the shelves, He would have known that when a line of goods ran out, it was time to renew. —Star.
