For the intending emigrant wishing to take up advanced farming, without the disadvantages of breaking new soil and finding new markets; wishing to take up his residence in a rural community possessing, along with un- ique agricultural advantages, all the advantages. educa- tional, religious and social of prosperous and progressive civilization, there is no better place in Canada than Prince Edward Island.
True Prince Edward Island has no Crown Lands to
dispose of at a nominal cost but a limited number of farms are always available at ii moderate price in almost evcry section of the Province.
There are three classes of immigrants to whom Prince
Edward island holds out welcoming hands und an assur- ance of rcmunerative work, namely:
First: farmers with a limited capital to purchase
farms already cultivated a “going concern" in a desirable cnvlroiimciit, a soil of infinite possibilities, a genial clim- ate, nn assured market and all the comfort that civiliz- ation has to offer in return for honest work.
Second, farm laborers willing to work for a reason-
able wage, with comfortable housing, plenty good whole- some food und nn opportunity to purchase farms of their

cal kiiowlcdge is mad. it is the iiisidiici-is horn of aiiibltion. Napoleon was mad. Wilhelm may uspire to that kind of madness.

There is still a perceptible recovery in Canadian com-

Though business in many lincs is yet upset, through the dislocation of trade and credits are yet curiailcd with some sharpness, the “scurc"‘ at thc outbreak of "Armu.geildon" has lost much of its effect. Business in Caiiadu, though naturally still sonic-wliat depressed. is not all falling apart, and coming to a dead stop; on the contrary. now that the serloiis part of the war is on, and people are able to gauge its proportions, it is seen that in Canada at least there is no reason for particular apprehension of ill to the future. So long as the British navy holds the seas as it has been so magni- ficently doing Canada is in no danger, and the chief Eu- ropean niiirkets for Canadian produce are in no danger. Business among the eight million people in Canada is righting itself.

A iilll MEIHUIJS
A REMARKABLE FORECAST BY
GEN. VON. BERNHARDI
For a clear and frank exposition of
the real aims of Germany and the means by which these are to be pro- moted, no better source of information is available than the book. -"Germany and the Next War," by General Fried- rich von Bernhardi. When that book was published nearly three years ago many doubted whether the Gerinun Government was capable of such con- tempt fer the rights of other nations as the forecast by the General implied. These doubts are now dispelled. The condition of Belgium today-a scene of devastation and ruin such as twenty years of peace may ,not obliterate- shows that General von Bernliardl did not mlsjudge the nien who form and execute the military pluns of Ger- many.
SCORN OF TREATIES.
General von Bernlisnii foresaw what
has happened during the past three weeks. and he gives un indication of 'what may be expected to happen in the immediate future. Such a forecast by a skilful soldier, acknowledged to be one of the lending German authorities on military niatters-with a dash o`i` Nietscliean philosophy thrown in-is of peculiar importance at the present juncture. In his calculations Bern- hardi reckoned upon the refusal of Italy to iight on the side of Germany and Austria. He took fully into ac- count the numericial superiority of the combined Russian and French armies ovcr those of the Geriniiiis ami Austrians. The commanding advantage of Grcrit llritain on the sen he fully recognized. After giving all these fae- tors careful consideration, he earnestly urged his fellow-countrymen to em- bark oii a war of aggression, at war of swift and deadly blows, if they would “avert the downfall of their native land as a world power. The notion of respecting the iieutrnliiy of Bel- gium was scouted by Von lleriilizirdi. “Neutrality is a. paper bulwiirk," he contemptuously explained, and Ger- many was to throw down hulwarks whether oi` paper or of more substan- tial material.
GERMAN NAVAL TACTICS.
Of special importance are the coun-
sels of Von Bornhardi in regard to Gerinany's nnvul tactics, and if these counsels are now to be followed we need expect no great sea lights such as Admiral Sir John Jcllicoc and his uien would most ardently desire. “A naval campiiigii of extrcnic caution was thc course be prescribed. and to this he added zi vigorous resistance to any British troops landed on the Coit- tiiient. “Cripple the Russian fleet as speedily as possible to prevent it help- ing Great llriiain and I~‘ruiice," was the utlvicc of this expert. lie gives the following cogent. reasons for avoid-
gigla trial ot’ strength with the British ce - \Vc must not engage in zi battle with
superior hostile forces, for it is hardly possible :it sea to discontinue it tight, because there is no place whither the loser can withdraw from the cffcct oi' the eiicmy`s guns. An engugciiiciit, once begun, must bc fought out to thc cud. And iippreciuhle dainuge can he inflicted on the ciieniy only oi' ti bold attack on him is iiiude. it is only pos- sible under exceptioiiully i'uvoru.lilc clrcunistziiicesfsucli, l'oi' cxuiiiple, tis the proximity of the fortified but-ic~ to :ibuiitloii a fight once begun without very heavy losses.
WHAT OUR FLEET MAY EXPECT.
While thus impressing the need of
a cautions policy, llcriilinivli would not coiidenin the German llect to com- plete inactivity. (‘ircumstii.iir:cs might iirise thai. would jiislii`_\‘ tin attack, and the following passage possesses great significance nt this critical iiioment-

“To gain time and deceive an op-
