THE VIRTUE OF DISCONTENT.

Professor Robertson, in his anual repor, for 1897 makes some remarke uoder this heading which’are worthy of consideration. The Professor says :

* The best resource of the proviece is undoubtedly the enterpris- ing people who have come here to make their homes. 1 would venture to cal them a discoateuted people, but I use tue word in its best eense. Probably, there are Only two classes of men who never know discontent; the thoroughly bad man who is never discontented with himeelf, not hoping or desiring any thing beiter ; and the man who is just dead. The people of Manitoba are tull of awbit o., aspiration and hopefulnese. ‘These virtua buoy up their spirits during the years <f adversity and disappointment which un- avoidably come to avy people when they are feeling their way and paying for their experience, in trying to make the best of new conditions.

“To make your province rich in a safe way you must multiply your sources of revenue, It will be advantageous to pay a good deal of attention to milch cows, to feed herds of swine,to keepin places where suitable flocks of sheep, and on every farm, large numbers of poultry. Why do not Manitobans raise turkeys enough to pay forall the groceries aod dry goods bought for farmers’ homes? By such methods of farming, Manitobans may have a revenue from their farms every month. That can be assured only by draws ing it from many sources.”

These remarks are addressed to farmer§ who have hitherto confined their attention to the production of wheat. But farmers even in this Province may profit by them. While making a specialte of one product, as horses or cattle or cheese or butter or pigs, it is well for each farmer to general- ize a little in respect to other things and not depend wholly upon one source of revenue, being careful, of course, to have everything of the best quality.

ESTEEMED EXCHANGES.

Moutreal Gazette: A crusade against gum chewing is the latest evidence of moral reform activity in Teronto. Some future Laurier may yet spend a quarter of a million dollars of public money to dis- cover if Quebec agrees with the other pro~ vinces on the advisability of prohibiting the manufacture, importation and sale of the jaw-exerting compound.

—Montreal Star: That there is discon- tent among Liberals with the Laurier Goverament, is #0 patent a fact that one can appeal to the Liberal pressitself for proof. Hardly aday goes by tha: a Liberal journal does notcome tothe exchange table with a strong and resentful complaint against thie Administration, which is Liberal in name, partially Liberal in com» position, though well] -nigh the antithesis of Liberal professions iu practice,

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—QOur City School Board would do well to follow the example of the Toronto Boaid in abolishing long “thome lessons.” It ia bad enongh for grown up men and women to bave to sit up at nights working their brains. Children ought to have a chance to sleep and grow.

~The report that Sir Richard Cart- wright will retire from the Cabinet aid become High Commiesioner for Canada in Great Britain has been revived. At any rate, Sir Richard will not agair, we venture to say, face a Cauatixn « orstitus ency. Every promise, every pledge, evey principle male or declared by him while in oppesition bas been belied by the Lau- rier Government. He must havea face of brass to be able to siand up before the old Liberals, who have ten dece'v d,a d defend the increas <d expenditurea, the added debt, the protective tariff, the cor-

ruption, the extravagance, the “ business is business ” methocs which the Liberata | uoder Laurler have iucurred, maintained | and indulged in. We are not surprised to hear that Sir Richard contemplates retir- ing from a cabinet which bas Tarte, Sifton and Blair is the heads of our spend- ing departments. —++O+
