Dust vs Water.

The dust nuisance assumed most for- midable proportion: on our principal streets yesterday. At times the clouds of dust would fill the air so that teams could not be seen at the distance of a few yards. Should this be thus in a city abundantly supplied with water?

The prograinme, comprising vocal ani instruinnital music, is an excellent one, and a real treat for lovers of music may be counted on, as the pupils will be assisted by Mrs. James yrue, Mr. C. B. Warren and Masters Hauard and Mitchell.

And That’s So T00,

A female writer in an exchange takes exception to the term *‘He leaves a widow and childrrn,” upon the death of a married man. She adds: “ lllsin always leaves a widow, but ‘a woman always leaves a husband. I never read such a notice without a I rawling feeling of indig- nation. When you announce my death please reverse the order and say : “She leaves a widower and one child.” Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. If a man leaves a widow, a woman leaves a widower.

Feed Famine in Cape Breton.

For feed for cattle and for seed grain the farmers 'fCape Breton were never in such need as they are this spring. Hundreds of tons of hay, _says the North Sydney Herald, have been imported by rail during the winter and bought up as soon as landed along the line of railway, and hundreds of t ns are yet required. As for seed grain, there appers to be none in the country, and as the price of oats andbarley is so high, poor people will End it difiicult to procure sufiicient feed f -r seed. Oats are selling in Prince Edward Island as high as 70 cents per bushel. They cannot be bought in Cape Breton under 80 cents, so that poor fann- ers will find it very difiicult to secure enough for seed purposes. not to speak of feeding. The people of the Island want the Provincial Government of Nova Scotia to purchse a few thousand bushels of seed for districts in need, and dispose of it at cost to farmers.
