two cases be'ng carried eut with grati- tying results in Nova Scotia schoole.

I do net here recommend thut new text books should immediately be provided We now bave books on botany, on chem- istry and physics and other books already appreved by the Board of Educaticn which areample forthe greund work. With these and the two little books on ‘nature lessons,” by Mr. Brittain,of Frederictor,.: d Mr. Jameer, of Teronto, a teacher wii! be able to make a start. I would strongly recommend, however, aidirg the teacher by frequent leaflets dealing with lassons apprcpriate to the season and whicb would help to make the nature lessen work uni- form throughout the Province. The plac is already being followed with most grati- flying results in the State of New York, and no longer ago than the 18th of last month the Agricultural Educational com- mittee of the Royal Agricultural Society of England made areport giving a curri- culum in the rura) English schools and suggestions fer having it carried out. Ontario is imoving. The agricultural press is taking it up and the time is ripe for some action. Now the preblem con- fronts ue. How shall we get teachers who will take up and make a success of these natural lessons? Here is a place

diture. Facilities must be given at the Nermal Schoo! for these student teachers to get suitable in-truction, and they should have a little substartial encouragement to carry out the work in their schools. Ina

tails, but a comparatively small expendi- ure would co much. One suggestion we would here incorporate, given us by Mr. John Brittain, that a summer class of instruction should be arranged for teachers during tae school vacation, where they coald be taken right out on the farms by One or two competent instructors and the actual connection be- tween the proposed nature lessons and the actual farm {practice be shown, this demonstration work to be accompanied by a short course of class lectures and dis~

coat

cussions,

by some compensation. An shonid also be made to the salary of teach- ers who will give a good course of these natural Jessops.

So much for the elementary schools. We have by tbi+ plan given our young people a chance to become imterested in the natural werld around them and so to become interested in the work on the ferm as a natural consequence. We have by these means, I hope, got the interest of some people and their children and we should have been giving them a great dea! of useful knowledge at the same time.

We have now our young people at (say) twelve or thitteen years of age with a fair idea of the rescurees of the country and eome idea of the poseibilities of agricul- ture. As @ consequence a considerable proportion will begin to make up their minds to be rerm-re. How shall theese young people be-t atiize the few remain- ing years of their scvool life? Those who are t> becom were!s! men or lawyers or dociors or «i-rgymen have already the way opeved iw them. Our high schools Jead them along paths to take a college course which will fit them for their occu- pation. But not so our intending farm- ers; the longer taey attend a high scbool the further they are drawa from the farm the workshop or the mines.

We must have technical high schopls leading tothe practical preductive work of life. We want short wicter course schools for agriculture. For the merchant ca) trades we are glad to note that through the efforts of Professor Robertson and the influence of Sir William McDonald we are to haveschoo.s ot manual training established as experimental schools in ull our provinces.

Our agricultural high schools need not be many at first, and simply multiply as the demand grows. I would suggest for a start one in cuvnection with each nor- mal school, one a8 an enlargement of the course of the Sussex Dairy School, and one as antenl@rgement of the School of Horticulture at Wolfvi'le.

Taese echools could both tench the advanced children and make pro- vision for .the actual workers from the farm by ggiving these latter special short courses which teach the results of sciewti- fic investigation rather than teach how to investigate, Life ie too short for every man to be achemist, a botanist] and an entomologist The practical farmer must be content to practice the precepts of those investigators without going into the details of their investigations.

Now, have weaccomplished the work of agricultaral education? Not yet. Where and how are we to get our trained thinkers, our scientific students to keep

Then let us look at Franee, Denmark, Germany and ether countries and we find that the prac- tical success they have at ainved has been through extending their system of agri- cultural education to almost every primary school.

Coxcert anp SociaL.—The concert and basket social given by the O. Y B's. in the Orange Hall eat Milton last nigbt was agreat success. The hall was crowded aod many could not get seate and hed to ptand. Itis hardly necessary to give the whole ‘programme bnt the solo by Mr. John E. Cameror, Dogherty’s Boarding House,” brought down the house ard when encored “Sweet Belle Mahone.” The sclos by Miss Bridges are deserving of mert on. One of the le t things on the programme was @ roariog farce entitled, “* The Man- ager’s Troubles” rendered by the O. Y. B’s., assisted by several young ladies. The bazkets were auctioned by Mr. John Diamond and brought a goodly sum. Cakes, candy and nuts were also sold by auction. About $30 was realized. The young Britons wish to thank Barton Lodge for the u-e of their hall, and all who helped to make the entertainment the success that it was. The concert will be repeated at Kingston, in convection with a pie social et an early date,

It ia only tue msn who is blind to his Own interests who can fail to per- ceive the advantage of our January clear- ance esle of clothiag. This will be one of the events of our business career in this city. Jas, Paton & Co.
