SII.I‘I.\'I‘I§ .\.\'I) SYPPIKICNSIOX. The kind of editorial conscience the Patriot p0S-1 sesses and the opinion that, paper entertains of the, intelligence of its readers is indicated by its con-a tinned justification of the Bell taxes while remain-i ing as niuni as an oyster concerning the stipprcssifm; of theofllcial (locument which belied all its and its, party's representations as to the need of the taxes. We have referred to this matter iii SG\‘(~.‘l‘ill recent is-i sues; the Patriot neither in its report of the proceed- ings in the lee;islattirt1 noi‘ in its editorial columns has Preferred to it. Yet it has the audacity to tell its read-- ei‘s that the tax was lustifizible while both" it audits partv have suppressed the Auditor's i"epoi‘t which, gave the lie direct to all the elaborate calculations‘ they had llllbli<hQtl regarding the finances of the pro-, vincc. _ _ . p ; The Patriot and its party have persistently claimed that there was a deficit of IIIZZHIJIUO at the end of the financial year; Hon. A. E. Arsenault pre-, senteil figures to the llouse. and they were never disputed, showing that the-whole deiicit for the Iiast, eight years ivas only $56,000. The Patriot never said a \1\'til‘l.l about this; the Ailditorls report, ink. niitted to the Public Accounts Committee, coliilti toi- ‘ated by sxvtirn evidence. and with the itpprova 0 ie Public Accounts Committee, to have been presented to the legislature in COIIJIIIICUGII \Vllll_ll1&lT_l‘Cglll21'I‘ report, and “either corrobl ‘ating or disproving Mi_.

ln an issue of the (luarllliln some weeks ago wet quoted an experienced farmer as ])l‘0(llCtll’l_£'§1&1ll un-l usually (ll'_\' summer his‘ prediction being based onl- pzist records shoulint: that winters of extreme sever-i ity have invariably been followed by dry summersl The present somewhat prolonged drought verifies the prediction up‘ to the present at least and whether] it be sutliciently [irolonged to ilffect vegetation oi‘ noti it will be well to remcinbci‘ the dry weather i‘iiles in farming and these every farinci‘ is actiuaintetl with.

Sofar the dry weatherhasbeeniitihelp tothe farmers; ”

the weather has been ideal for out dooi‘ work and we understand fitrining is further zidvanccd ovci‘ the‘ whole province than it has been at this date in many _vczirs. Many farmers have practically completed their seeding with the exception of such varieties as do best when planted later. So far also the winter and spring moisture which was very generous is sufficient to maintain vegetation fol‘ a considerable‘ time yet. The thing is to conserve it and all pro- gressive farmers agree that frequent cultivation, that is, harrowing, is the best means of conserving, moisturej If this is followed up as lat,"- as. posaraiblel on the flown and planted fields the resulting" coat of‘ vegetation will further conserve the moisture even if rain fail to put in an apt rarance as tiai‘ly' as would be! desirable. ,

Y. 1 i FOR I§l11'l"l‘l*ll{ 'l‘ll I NUS l

There are a few~—too few-communities in thisl province which have inherited froina IJIISlZ genera-i tion a literary taste, a taste which clmiacterizes the‘ community and raises it above the ordinary material-i istic level into which so much of the province has: fallen. 'l‘herc are unfortunately’ too few of our com-i munitics that have held to their former faith iii the; vahlue of liliraiiies and of Etc ‘airy societieis. Time w en practica ly ever sc 001 istrict ha its regu arl debating club or othdlr organization with a view to1 intellectual improvement. With few exceptions where these onceflourishell their places are taken by dance and bridge cltibs, or perhaps by an organiza tion for the better breeding of cattle. etc. While the, latter is very commendable and while in farmingj communities especially every means should be em- ployed concertedly‘ for the improvement of agricul-

tural conditions we should not lose sight of the fact i,\-,,,.,,

that agricultural prosperity is not the “chief end of! man." He makes the best farmer, the best mechan ic, the best business man, who keepshbreast of cur- rent thought in science, literature, history and other intellectual pursuits. A literary or intellectual or- ganization with a moderatelibrary and reading room attached would prove a blessing to any community that would undertake to conduct such. We have had such in this province and where they have been kept up the evidences are to be found in intellectual men and women who have and can give opinions on other and larger questions than making money. We need a revival along this line and it is long past due.
