GENTLEMEN,—At the request of many of my fellow citizens L place myself in your hands for re-election to the honor- able position of Mayor, and respectfully ask for your votes.

Should you again do me the honor to elect me, I shall co-operate in maturing an? carrying out all measures having for their object the good of the community as a whole, and, as in the past, my best efforts shall be given to the administration of tne affairs of the city.

I refer you to the City Report for my views on taxation, and would only add thatI am fully satisfied that the ordinary expenditure of the city can be met by a reduced rate on real estate and personal property, which rate, with the other sources of available income, will yield a sufficient revenue to meet the liberal basis of expenditure of the past year, and that no department of the public service can sufter thereby.

I remain, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, W. E. DAWSON.

FRUIT GROWERS MEETING AT CARDI- | GAN,

|

a

A most enthusiastic meeting was held last night at Cardigan, in the iaterests of the fruit-growers of that vicinity. Teh hall was packed to the doors, large num$ ber being obliged to stand. This meeting is the Ja-t of the series to be addressed by Prof. Craig upon the Island during his preseat visit, and it was without doubt one of the most successtul. The committee

in chage of arrangements were Me:srs.

Mr. W. P. Lewis was moved to the chair and opened ihe meet- ing with a few appropriate

remarks. He then called on Mr. Melhae, of Jones & McRae, fruit canners, of Pow

nal, whe gave an interesting resume of the history of the canning industry up to the present time, and urged farmers to in- crease the revenue of their farms by grow- ing more small fruits such as strawberries and raspberries, as well as adding to their erchard area by planting good winter Mr. McRae’s remarks were re- ceived in an approving manner by. the large audience.

The chairman then introduced Prof. Craig who was warmly received, and who spoke for over two hours. He was pleased to extend them the greetings of the Minis- ter of Agriculture for the Dominion as well as the Premier of the Provinee, both otf whom had expressed themselves as deeply interested in tne development of

apples.

the fruit industry. He regretted Mr. Dillou’s ability to be present but delivered a cheering message from that

gentleman in regard to the sale of summer- made cheese, and the success of the winter creamery which latter was turning out daily from fifteen hundred totwo thousand pounds of butter. Prof. Craig instanced the great success attaived by Mr. Robert- son in fruit growing as the gbest evidence of the possib:tities of fruit production in this locality. He then went on to outline some of the eszential requisities to suceess in fruit growing, touchiog upon the necer- sity of thorough preparation of the soil- planting the right kinds of trees, pruning, mauuring, in addition to spraying to pre

vent injurious insects and diseases. The value of top grafting asa method of re- newing old trees and rendering useless worthless ones was emphasized and _ illus

trated by object lessons. In this connec- tion the speaker offered to send to any desirable varieties of plums, apples and cherries, suitable for top grafting P.E.I. The speaker then with the aid cf a chart described an ideal small fruit gar den suitable for the farmers,and discussed he best way to cultivate each class of food contained in it, dwelling upcn the face that all of these truits were especia'ly ad- apted to the soil and climatic conditions of the [sland. Strawberries shouid yield three to four thousand boxes per acre, sell- ing for 6 to 10 cents per box; raspberries the same, while gooseberries should give twice asmuch. A well tilled and cared for acre of small fruits should bring into the owner a net revenue of $100 per an- num. The best gooseberries were White Smith and Downing; raspberries, Cuti- bert and Marlboro; strawberrie-, Bubaci, Parker, Earle, Crescent aud Wilson.

Passing On to injurious insects and dis— eases, the life history of some of the more destructive was outlined and the best means Of prevention described.

Anumber of questions were asked and answered which carried the meeting up till 10.30. Incidentally the speaker mentioned the desirability of using low lying tracts of land for the cultivation of the cranberry. By growing this fruit otherwise lands could be utilized and remunerative returns be secured, Bogs should be dyked so as to almit of flooding in the autumn of each year. The surface of the ground should al-o be covered with sand to keep down weedy growth. Young plants bear the third yeur after setting, and shoald yield from 25 to 50 tarrels per acre, worth from five to six dollars per barrel.

At the close of the address which was frequently applauded, a resolution was moved by Mr. John Robertsou, New Perth commending the ominion Government for its action in fostering Dairying and thanking the Minister for sending Prof. Craig to the Island, in addition to asking that further assistance sbould be given to

one desiring these scions of

ol

useless

fruit-growing on the Island with a view to developing this industry in

@ measure Commensurate with is import- ance and possibilities. A hearty vote of thanks was then moved by Cyrus Shaw, M.P. P., seconded by Mr. Kobertson, and presented to the speaker by the chairman The meeting closed by singing the Nationa Anthem.

Among those present were Cyrus Shaw, M. P. P., New Perth, A. J. McDonald, M. P. P., Georgetown, Geo. Aitken, M. P. P., Murray Harbor, and Jas. E. McDonald, M.P. P., Cardigan. The clergy a'so turned out in furce. Among them were noticed Rev. Dr. Walker, Rollo Bay, Fathers, McDonald, Gillis, McLean, Mc- Lellan, McMillan, Revs. Gunn, of Cardi. gan, and Gillis, of New Ferth-

SOUTHERN RAILWAY

On Monday, the 27th inst., a large and enthusiastic meeting was held at Glen Martin for the purpose of advocating for the proposed railway from Southport to Murray Harbor South. Mr. Kenneth Martin occupied the chair.

Mr. A. Martin, Valleyfield, was the first to address the meeting. He reviewed the steps that had already been taken to bring this subject to the attention of the Government, and felt encouraged at the success that had attended the efforts’ al ready put forth. He thought the present a very opportune time for pressing our claims.

Messrs. McGuigan, McMillan and Mar- tin followed. Their addres-es - were not long, but to the point. The meeting then proceeded to organize a Railway Associa- tion, The following officers were elected :

l'rom top to bottom the floors of the factory are covered with tiles, and I noticed that there were people engaged inall parts of the building serubbing and washing these tiled floors. For a candy factory it was the least sticky or smeary place Lever saw. Absolute cleanliness and sweetness was the rule. There was a slight drift of sugar about, as in a mill where wheat is ground, and your might get a little powdered, but there always was sweeping going on.

Chocolate making I need not de- scribe, only to state that everything was done here by machinery, for the chocolate as produced enters for a large percentage into the ben-bons manu- factured.,

In the sugar-plum departments hand- work Stemed to be constant. Tidy- looking young women, all with caps on, were working away, eachone with a little saucepan her full of sugar ; the sugar was ina past) con- dition, the heat being derived from steam. In these saucepans were color- ed sugars of all the hues of the rain- bow. The workwomen would take uy an almond or a pistache-nut, and drop it into the saucepan, then fish it out with abit of wire fashioned in loop form. The art was to get just the proper coat- ing. Then with a dexterous motion of the wrist the sugar-plum would be placed in a tin pan, and witha deft motion of the wire loop anice finish would be given to the tep of it- There were very small sugar-plums, and it would take 200 of them to make a pound, They were all exact in form. These little things, so the foreman told me, had gone through ten before they had arrivedat their present condition. Some of thesugar-plums were madein molds. There was pure levgerdemain about these. A man took afunnel and dropped the sugar, just at the cry point, in molds, They were very small things, not more than an inch long by halfan inch wide, but the never poured a dropin the wrong place.

Eccentric Svires.

The Exchange in the City of Copen- hagen, with its curiously fashioned tower and spire, is deemed one of the sights of Denmark’s capital. It is one af the most remarkable examples of eccentric architecture, although the architect. in his desire for originality, has not sacrificed the of form. The lower part is octagonal in shape, but tho upper part of four carved dragons. whose tails, gracefully entwined, gradually taper away, and form the spire of the Exchange. The tower is 165 feet high, and was erected about 1815. The most eccentric church spire is that of the Parish Church (All Saints’, of Chesterfield, with euri 228 feet high, and 6 feet off the perpendicular. Whichever way

They had been sitting on the sofa in the twilight as they had every Sunday evening for three years, talking about the weather and the last church social.

Suddenly drawing the girlish figure toward him he exclaimed: *‘Agnes, I can no longer dissemmble—I love you!”

The slender frame was racked as with uncontrollable emotion. Starting from his embrace she half rose to her feet, clutched wildly at her throat, then sank gasping by his side.

‘*Heavens!” he cried, ‘‘what means this? Art thouill? Was my declara- tion too sudden for you?”

“Sudden?” she gurgled faintly as she struggled to smile. “‘Sudden? 1 should say it was. You scared me so I’ve swallowed my chewing gum.”

These Pigeons Knew.

A number of homing pigeons were stolen. A policeman was detailed to trace them.

He found in a cote a number of pigeons that a neighbor said had just come there. The man who owned the cote said the pigeons were his. ‘‘Very well,” said the policeman, ‘that’s easily proved.” He opened the door of the cote, and the pigeons flew out at once. They circled in the air for a mo- ment and then flew away. The police- man went back to the man who had lost his pigeons, and found him very happy for they had ail come home.

IT DOCKS THE BUSINESS,

If you want to know what Miller’s Emuision of Norwegian Cod Liver Qil will do for a consumptive patient ask one who has tried it. Ask anyone who has used it in lung troubles of any kind. What they say about Miller’s Emulsion sball be its recommendation. Jt is the finest pre- paration of its kind in the world, and is worth its weight in gold to a consumptive sufferer, whom it will raise from a bed of sickness to health and s‘rength of body

and mind, giving a new lease a in, Thensands testify to the value of Miller’s imulsion. Miller's Emulsion is the great verve

strengthener and blood maker, and cures Coughs, Collis, Bronchitis, Scrofala and all Lung affections. In big bottles, 50c. and $1, at all drug stoves.

Counterfelts

A few years ago agreat discovery was mare.

Unprincipled persons are trying to prey npon and dupe people who are led to ask for kidney treatment.

Some of the methods adopted by imitat- ors are as follows:

First —To imitate the size, color and shape of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis and sell them by count. '

Secood—To put them up to appear very nearly the same and to be offered at the same price.

Third—To hook on the word “kidney” in naming cathortic pills so as to increase sales of mere physic.

Fourth—To givea name so near to Dodd’s that unwary people may be deceiv- ed and think they are getting Dodd’s.

Look out for such dodges. When you want kidney medicine you want the best. And ought not to be the subject for any trick,

So beware.

A penny saved is usually a penny earr- ed for the benefit of some one with a scheme.

The doctor aivised the use of Chese’s Ointment, and since using the eruption has all disappeared, and | can confidently ray my child is cured.
