That the Grits are down-and-out, with no policy. no

leader and no following. except' probably n. disgruntled temporary exciseman and suchlike, is quite evident from the exhibition being made by the Patriot in_S€11¢Y`al- Again and again the Pathiot has announced that~"It has no criticism or comment to offer on the local Government' adniiiiistration. It is quite satisfied with the expenditure and will not guarantee that there will be a single cen reduction in any department were the Grits returned to lpower. lt is very satisfactory to have such a spirit manl- :fesied in an opposition journal; it shows that the Govern~ 'ment has satisfied everybody and that there will be no controversial questions to come before the electroate when the Government appeals to the country. The only opposi- tion likely to be offered will be that engineered for per- sonal motives by the Patriot machine, which has succeed- ed in tlirusiiiig candidates from Charlottetown and Sum- lmerside on unwilling country constituencies. The feelin against the Patriot machine both in Prince County an Queens County is intense, the more especially as th

support of its nominees.

The Patriot has just one cry to echo, and it is a

Progress, Mr Sinclair said the Grit policy was t

this particular juncture. The Hon. J. C. Pope scourged Mr Sinclair and his colleagues with whips of scorpions. which are equally applicable to the Patriot and its friends of to-day. " lf ever there were dishonest and unprlncipled men entrusted with the reins of power, it was during the last Lib¢ral administration. Their policy was ‘dash away, levy taxation and blame their political opponents for the result of their actions.’ Such conduct was Surely beneath any right minded, honourable rrlan, and could not be juati fied in any manner whatever."

Those who have taken the trouble to plant 'trees by

their roadsides are now having their reward. The trees have donned their summer robes and not only look ,beautiful themselves. but they give the farm and farm buildings a dressed-up appearance which cannot but add materially to their value.

In no province in Canada could suchan improvement

'be effected as in this province by tree planting. In the first attack upon the forest primeval the one great aim was to strip the land of all the trees. and too well was the aim carried through. There are farms to-day without a single grove, many without a single tree in field or by the roadside. The want is a serious one. In summer the animals seek the shade even of barbed wire fences, the roadsides are bare and desolate looking. A few trees planted yearly would in a very short time overcome this great want and the effect would he to improve the general appearance ofthe province as well as enhance the value of the farms.

People travelling through the most prosperous sections

of Ontario invariably expatlate on the delightful country roads. miles of nicely shaded avenues, cool, picturesque and well kempt, giving the whole landscape a prosperous. ll8PD_v and permanently settled appearance.

This province of ours with its splendid advantages ln

soil and climate could, with a little care on the-part of our farmers, make roads for itself which would be talked about by visitors and taken aprlde in by ourlpeople. There are many such sections of roads now, thanks to the foresight of progressive and 'thrifty men. As~.a result of their efforts the communities thus favoured"are more prosperous, the farms more valuable. their products more sought after than those ln localities which are lacking in these little alterations. -, ~ »- -

It should not be forgotten that we gdlgrngg by_¢¢m..

munlties: that the value of a farm andipverl the quality 01 farm Products are measured vei°y1ge_herally by the reputation or the whole community. Tng_.qq|”rglg,_1l; fp,-.

A few leaders in any community may set the pace for

the whole. lf one or two farmers were _to clean up their roadsldes, plant yearly as many trees as possible (our native birch, maple and beech. which can be had for the °"°“bl‘? Uf dl88lns.

sands more are being recruited. If Canada could do this in less than a year, what could not the United States do?

But after all the strength of the United States is in her

n material resources, in her wealth, in her manufacturing r' facilities. As an exchange points out, “A few good al-

_llaiices would be worth more to the United States to~da_v than all the coast tlefeiices, Peace Leagues, and pledges

AVOIDING THE .WORD “DEF EAT”

Germany is adopting soiiiestraiige devices to bolster

up public oplnioii at- home. For instance after the splendid fislitingthat made the Frenchtroops masters of thc whole of the Eparges hill-top, a strateglcal position i of great importance, the German Staff, in 'order to avoid any acknowledgement of defeat, merely changed the name of the hill. They called some helghts.ifurtlier south, and still in their hands by the name of Eparges! Again, in num- bers 5 and 12 of tlie Gazette des Ardennes, a paper pub- lished at Bethel by German authorities, Dunkirk, Bethune, Rouen, Rhelms, Epernay, -Bar-le-Duc, Ponl-a,Mousson Nancy, Belfort~and even Paris-are said to he occupied by the German troops!
