_ >> << CANOE COVE BREAKWATER. Sin,—Some years ago P. E. Island was carried into co: federation with a@ promise

that the tenants would be redeemed — {from paying rent, be puton a level with the sister provinces, that piers and Break- waters would be constructed and direct winter communication established. Are these promises tully or only partly ful- tilled? Tne poor tenantsof P. E. Island

have had to purchase their land from the government in lnostaiments at o per cent, and during the time of purchasing pay taxes, whereas the farmers of Nova Scotia were freed from paying rent.

We now claim equal rights and also a share of the money expended by the Do- minion Government, which in our opinion

is not fairly distributed, Confederation has done some eections of the Island much good by giving them breakwaters, dredging, railroads and stations,

whereas other sections such us Western Queen’s and Eastern Prince Counties, which boundary meets at Canoe Cove, where the proposed breakwater is in agi- tation, pay their share of revenue and re- ceive little or no benefit. The public here would like to know what is the intention of the Government as regards the matter? A petition was forwarded to the Dominion Governm-nt in March, 1894, and seeming- ly nothing has yet been done. ihe farmers here on both sides of politics ar2 indignant, and claim fairplay, and think that the Dominion Government should at Jeast send a surveyor, and see if it is feasible, which being done, there is not the least doubt tbe work will go ahead. Canoe Cove is already a natural harbor,

with its western reef, extending into —_—' the Gulf 600 feet with a depth of about 3 feet of water, and its

eastern ledge extending 500 feet westerly. with a depth of about 4 feet of water, and and between these two ledges there is a lepth of 18 feet, with mud bottom extend— ing into the gulf, without shoals or ledges. From the point of this reef into the Cove, is a distance of about three-quarters of a mile. Two large brooks flow into the Cove, and if a breakwater were build on the eastern ledge, and @ pier on the west ery reef, the flow of water between these, would be sufficent to deepen the water, ard lredging would never be required.

Now, we would ask where are the poli ticians who intend contesting Western Queen’s anid Eastern Prince County, for the com ng Dominion electiuu? Wiil they not take their political battle-axes, and hew down the timber, start the work, and in so doing, will be sure to reap the reward.

Some selfish parties who wish to mon- opolize the whole trade may ‘ay that this section isnot badly off for shipping facilities. This may be true, but it is at a great disad- vantage. The main object of the break- water is to open a trade with the Provinces whereby we can exchange our products for lumber, lime, etc.,—as the forests are being cleared, thereby causing a scarcity of lumber, and we are forbid by the Dominion laws to dig oyster beds, which manure was the bone and sinew of our land, and consequently have to resort to the use of lime, which we are unable to get except at great disadvantage, This ia a trade which will not dimivish as long as farming is carried on.

It is said by one lobster packer that if there were a barbor at Canoe Cove he would save $500 a year. If this be true how much will be saved by the many factories in the vicinity ?

Moreover, we believe Canoe Cove would become an extensive village in a short

time. it has beautiful scenery. Along its banks is an abundance of the best cf brick clay which could be manufactured

“Verily I believe if such had been tained iu Eien when mother Eve plucked the unluckey fruit and gave it to her aate, Father Adam would never have infected us with the dire results of his fondness for apples.”

Father Burke ran directly foul of scien tific teaching when he urged the ex cellence of inbred cherry trees over im ported ones, He said :

“The first trees planted here, as in all new countries, were either engrafted seedlings or suckers from somebody’s else

ob-

orchard. It is claimed that the first cherry trees (and in cherry trees we are well stocked) were brought out from

England by Capt Hill. atter whom Hill’s River is ranec, The Keeffee, Weeks, Gor dons, Hardys, Ramsays and many vthers— indeed the whole West—er joy cherries to day from off trees Cerived from this source and despite all the matter to the contrary we read in scientific papers, 1am able to say that those int red cherry trees produce up to the present, much be ter fruit than that procurable from the dearly-boughten imported article”

Professor Craig remarked upon this strange claim that he had ne doubt but that « pecul arly suitable kind of cherry tree had been procured, which, becoming

| acclimatized and further bred from the

best product.ons of itself, fruit euch as was claimed | Everyone who has visited

cherry time knows what delicious fruit it produc es.

But Father Burke claimed more than good cherries for West Prince He con-

sidered it the best adapted to general fruit growing, basing his argument on special inorganic ma‘ter in the soil. He said:

“T think almost everyone will bold with me that our soil is wel) suited for pomz- culture, perhaps much more so tban any other portion of the province, since here to a greater extent than elsewhere in Prince

Edward Island are found great numbers of

those granite boulders which have come to us on the bosom of the Great Glacier during the Ice Period of the world’s tory. Those rocks, I need not stop to say, have added valuable inorganic matter to our soi! which has to be artificially intro- duced in the middle and eastern portions of the prov_nce, and those inorganic ele- ments are cf the greatest value for fruit culture.”

Some of oar readers who have been at their wits’ ends to know whence came those large grey boulders distributed along the line of railway west, have the key to the difficulty here; and it will be seen that even such strangers have to pay their toll to Dame Nature and make themselves useful. There are great varieties of soil in the west, and the people were anxious to know how to adapt them to fruit raising.

“We have soils varying all the way from the heavy loam which makes Mani- toba so fertile, tothe sand bank which only Ly the introduction of heavy sup- plies of manure and an extra share of wat-

hils-

ercan beturned toanything. I think, however, that in this Western Prince County we have a greater proportion of

good clay and sandy loam land to our acreage than can be found East of us. Now it will be Professor Craig’s duty to show us how best we can adapt this varied

and varying class of soils to the proper and successful growth of fruit. While we can point with pride to some fairly suc-

ce sful orchards upon the sandy loam: of the riding, and, while I may add incident- ally, our exhibition of fruit in the classes shown for the past two years, compared more than favorably with those of either the County or Central Exhibitions, I must say frankly that the section of

lack loam lands, like a portion of Palin- er Road settlement and the heavy clay loams of Lot 7, have so far been unsucces- fully tested as fruit-raising sections.”

Prof. Craig thought that it was useless to plant apple trees in black loam, and unless the subzoil of clay loams permits of drai nage, there will be no good resulc.

“Large portions of Lot 7 run along the Straits of Northumberland to the west of us and itis claimed by the settlers there that the salt mists from the straits are deadly to the apple tree, at least. This ix also averred of Tignish, a greatly exposed section of the Province. With a good sprucebound break, which can, with a little care be grown everywhere, I feel sure fruit trees can be grown successfully even in these places,”

Tisis is a di f et under which other pl wes labor and tis plessing to know that Pro- fessor Craiz agres{ entirely with the opinion st forth in Father Burke’s ] @ver

There were many other excellent points brought out in this eplendid paper, which is published in full in Eng!i<h in L’Im- partial. We must give its practical words in concluding, and hope its prayer may shortly be fally realized :

“Here, then, I will on!y say, to conclude this paper of commonplac es, that with the majority of our people little or no care bas been taken of the tree. In many cases the prospective orchard has not even been fenced round, and bes:des the attacks of mice in deep snow, and hares above the crust, sheep, pigs, cows, horses and geere have barked, browsed and broken the trees at their pleasure. Still the whole Province has lately—thanks to the untir- ing efforts of our worthy Governor—be- come aroused tothe value of the fruit in- dustry; and, as you, Prof. Craig, have now come among u3 with this new gos-

into brick, also commodious places of re— sort for tourists, boating, bathing, fishing, and abundance of game, which would | induce capitalists to erect a commodious | hotel.

Sir Charles Takes the Lead Amid Thunders of Applause.

The Remedial Bill Introduced.

Orrawa, Feb. 12.

Sir Charles Tupper was introduced yes- terday afternoon and took the seat of the leader of the House amidst thunders of applause.

Hon. Mr. Dickey moved for leave to in- troduce a bill entitled “Ihe Remedial Ac*, Maritoba.” He briefly outlined the bill, the explanations being given in a conver- sational manner. There was no discussion. There are 112 clauses in the bill. No date was fixed for a second reading.

A CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS.

Sir William Dawson Quoted in ‘Favor of Remedial Legis- lation.

Orrawa, Feb. 12 The Conservative caucus held yester-

day was the largest in many vears. The only question discussed at the meeting

was that of Remedial Legislation, Mr. Dickey explaining the provisions of the bill.

Sir Mackenzie Bowell and Mr. Foster also spoke, the latter making an eloquent speech.

Sir Charles Tupper, speaking in sup support of remedial legislation, read a let ter he had received from Sir Will am Dawsoa, of Montreal, supporting it.

Wallace Sproul, McLean and other On tario members opposed remedial legisla- tion, and Dr. Weldon is reported to have suggested that the bill be not madea Govy- ernment measure.

Sir Frank Smith urged the party to

stand shoulder to shoulder on this ques- tion. Hon. Mr. Haggart made an appeal to

the Ontario members to stand by the Gov- ernment. No vote was taken, it being understood that another caucus would be held before the second reading of the measure.

A leading Conservative said yesterday that not more than a dozen Ministerialists would vote against the measnre, while fully 26 Liberals will vote for it.
