At a moment when both were par- ticularly on the look-out for some- one to reassure them as to their location, it was inconceivable that so o- nspicuous a person on the de- serted landscape should have es- caped the sight of either. , It was this new element of mys- tery, and the doubt whether they had seen the same things, that gave them the resolve to write the separate accounts of that myster- ious day which together with sub- sequent material vispublished un- der the titale of ‘An Adventure.’

i ‘I l 1935 Swine Sale

On Oct’. ma, in} Swine moo. ers of Prince Edward Island bold their annual Swine Show and Sale.

condition of our farmers this event proved the most successful since such sales were intitiated in 1927. The quality of the exhibits was good. Th, prices realised were o good indication that our swine growers are placing greater em- phasis 0n W!» and individual merit in the boars used throughout the province.

Some. years ago it was the gen- eral practise to buy boars when they were six weeks old. This un- fortunate policy very oftcn resulted in such boars developing into culls with greet loss to the community. Todayour boar owners klww that poor animals will not be patroniud. To meet this demand for better boars. breeders are turning to the Annual Swine Show and Sale where they find boars carefully sel- ected and ready for service.

This year about twenty high class boars were sold to buyers from all districts between Aiberton and Ei- mlra. The 1st prize boar, bred by S. C. Stewart 6r Son, Dunstaffnage, went to the Hunter River stripping Club, at the good price of $53.50. This boar is now pieced with Mk. Cecil Laird, New Glasgow, when he can be used to great advantage to correct the great harm done by non-bacon type boars which have been used too freely in recent years. As a result of cross breeding we get some of the poorest hogs from the Hunter River district although some of the best hogs come from this same area. This boar is of ideal bacon type with good length and very smooth shoulders. mun- ers who have had dliliculty with type, should patronize this animal.

This club has placed mother good boar with Mr. John Clark, Rustioo; one with Mr. Norman Ling, Wheatley River, and one with Mr. Russell white, Greenvale. This extensive breeding program is evi- denced that the Club ls making definite effort to bring Hunter Riv- er hogs back to their former repu- iation. It is to be hoped that fann- ers in this district will do no more unprofitable experimenting with non-bacon type breeds.

The 2nd prize boar, bred by Alex. Hamilton, New Perth, went to the Morell Shipping Club. Swine grow- ers in this district have been more or less indifferent in their breed- ing operations with the result that Moreli hogs are not good. This club- owned boar should bring about some improvement.

The 4th prize boar, bred by George Boswell, Frenchfort, went tn New Haven and is placed with l-le- ber MacPhail. This makes four high clus boars bought by this district in four years, with the result that the best type hogs in the province now come from New Haven and vicinity. This area stands alone as a demonstration of what can be done by using the best sires avail- able. This boar now at Mr. Mc- Phairs was 1st at Halifax, and if he had not been on the show cir- cuit, he might have given the first prize boar a hard run. We will hear from this boar at future ex- hibltions.

The Uigg Shipping Club bought two boars, full brothers to the above mentioned boar sold to New Haven. These boars are out of Dlckieson Alice, a famous brood sow. One is placed with Mr. A. D. McPherson, Orwell, and the other with Mr. John A. McPherson, Bel- levue. During the past few years Uigg hogs have been slipping in type.

These boars should bring the hogs in this district back to their former standing.

Another boar, full brother to the Uigg boars, went to the Montague Shipping Club, where- he will be us- ed by many of the breeders purebred Yorkshires. The Montague Club is following a very consistent policy of keeping the district well covered with good boars. some in- ferior cross-bred hogs are still coming from Montague and vicin- ity but their numbers are decreas- ing rapidly.

The Cove Head ‘Shipping Club has at last awakened to the fact that common boars are a money losing proposition. Two years ago a real good boar wasplaced in this district with Mr. George Macmil- lan. The result was very notice- able in the improvement of the hogs marketed. This year another high class boar, full brother to the boar bought by New Haven, wu placed with Mr. McMillan. This animal is even a better individual than the one purchased by the Cove Head Club two years ago.

The Nine Mil¢ Creek district h been in need of a good boar for many years. At the recent Bale, m. Daniel 'I‘aylor purchased a good in- dividual, bred by W. J. Jenkins, Frenchfort. This boar- is out of a very prolific strain.

Mr. Daniel Dart, Desable, was another purchaser of a big, rugged boar bred by Alex. Hamilton, New Perth. In this district there is room for considerable improvement. The class of market hogs col-ding from that area between Bonshaw and Crapaud is not up to the Island

Prcgrclc Delayed

If there had been more oppor- tunity for individual endeavor, if a man could have had his own iield, his own cattle, and the individual right to use his property and his own faculties as best be might, political liberty would not have been so long delayed. Introduction of new methods, with the seeding of passes and clovers, was slow, but it was not until these new methods were practised that im- provement of agriculture first be- came possible. Enclosures of the open fields which had slowly begun long before made large increases in the eighteenth century, and with Seliaratc ownership came individual opportunity and private initiative. Lord Charles Townsend and 10rd Leicester introduced the four course system of agriculture, which made turnip and clover, or grass ini- portant crops in English farming, and thus taking advantage of priv- ate ownership of fields created one of the greatest and most bene- ficial revolutions in human con- ditions which mankind has known in the lust two thousand‘ years. By creating an era of prosperity and a lofty spirit of independence among the masses, Britain has

built up a system of democracy, that challenges the admiration of,

the world. When it can be truly said "the King can do no wrong’ and better still who would not want to even if he could. A realm in which the scales of justice are justly held between all classes. Without one law for the rich and another for the poor. Where crime is punished and merit brings its own reward. 0n this side of the Atlantic we are inclined to pride ourselves on our democratic instit- utions, but I think they are some- what overworked. It is to the crBdit of th¢ United States that they have developed under republican institutions, the richest and one of the greatest nations of the world, in a material sense at least. But as the years roll by the making of government and. law is not func- tioning too well “ln the land ‘of the free." Forces have arisen which will have to be grappled with, the subdulng of which should not be beyond the resources of so great a country.

Across the front of the court house in Worcester, Massachusetts, runs in great letters the inscrip-

01, tion: “Obedience to Law is Lib-

erty." Harry iiknerccn rpzdlck, one 0f their noted writers, makes these comments on this inscription:

Fundamental Truth

“That truth is the foundation of the democratic experiment. That idea, not a wild and wayward dis- obedience is the true basis of dem- “MW.

There is no magic by which the democratic experiment can be saved, if mad insistence on individual liberty continues to crowd out sober recognition of social obligation.

That lawlessness is rampant needs no long demonstration. Con- sider the fact that in the last thirty-five years we have lynched over three thousand people.

We would like to plead the dif- ficulty of dealing with the colour line in this country, but over a thousand white people have been lynched in that time.

Or consider our criminal record. 1n one year Chicago with its two millions and a half of inhabitants had twenty more murders than the whole of Great Britain with their thirty-eight million people. And the City of New York had six times as many culpable homicides as the City of London. I look upon war as one of democracy! greatest foes. While it is true that after the Great War some of the smaller nations achieved liberty, on the

Gibbon Quoted

It has been truly observed by Gibbon ‘That while the world con- tinues to bestow more generous ap- plause upon the destroyer than upon its benefactors the thirst for military glory will ever be the vice of the most exalted charactcrs." Reminding us of the old Chinese saying "Ten thousand men lie slain upon the field and our General wins immortal fame." In the past we have made the military hero the

subject of worship through cur

school books. And it'is now our solemn duty to diacou up in every way the settling of national dis- putes by the arbitrament of the sword.

Market hogs coming from this district have shown too much evidence of mixed breeding.
