Nature has done, and is doing, much for us, but the-fertility ol' the soil of most of our farms needs serious attention of everyone inter- ested in the welfare of the Proviiice. This acnomplislied will enable our people to raise at least three times as iuucli from their farms as they now do and so supori. a largely increased nopulation. If to properly cultivate the soil is to serve one’s country, the V|CT0R|A- spur to do this effectually and well ‘_ with all possible zeal and energy, was never so great as now, when the fruits of the soil have become such a supreme necessity to our Empire engaged, as lt ls, in a fight for its very existence, and when some of the chief agricultural nations ol' Europe are by reason ot' the war no longer able to forward their crops to the heart of our Em ire When other working to make the best of the pre- vailing adverse conditions occasioned by- the war. it should be the desire and ambition of every' Prince Edward Islander to strain every effort to con tribute something to forward and ment ot his Province. ` , Ii. is not surprising, although it ls_ to be regretted. that the war, wliich_ has upset everywhere so many plans. should have prevented the holding of ,the anual meeting of the Maritime Board of Trade, at Summersidc, in the month of August last. -rl-is ou'r|_ool<.

In conclusion, l desire to state that. I have at all times received the great-. est hell; and assistance in the dis charge of my duties from the Vice- ‘ President and all the members ot' the Council. W. S. STEWART, , President. Mr R. H. Jenkins said he was greatly pleased with this excellent report which the president had just concluded, and he thought it was one oi' the best presidential reports they had ever had. When he extended tc him his heartiest congratulations on the work that had been done ln the past year, he was only voicing the sentiments of the rest of the Boards Hs had very much pleasure in moving the adoption of the report. Mr James Paton, in seconding the motion, said it had been a source of much plea sure lo him during the year to see so much work done by thc iiourd which was certainly a good institution not only for Charlottetown. but tht whole province. He regretted tlia‘ some citizens who ought to be mem bers were not, but at the same time it was gratifying that so many younr men were joining. Messrs E. D Stems, J. E. B. McCready. W. F.

The I’resident’s report was then adopted. Next followed the election ot omcers for the ensiiins year, which resulted as follows:-President, J. 0. Hynd- man; Vice-President, R. L. Cotton; Members of Council. Messrs W. F. Tidmarsh, Edwin Aitken, H. V. Bun- taln, A. Plckard, It. H. Jenkins, Chas. H. Black, W. S. Stewart and J. P. Gordon; Board oi’ Arbitration, Messrs Wm.

Higgs, the retiring Secret- ary, was nominated for re-election but declined, nominating instead Mr E. H. Beer, who was elected Secretary. The retiring President then vacated the chair in favour of Mr Hyndman. the newly appointed President. In doing so Mr Stewart congratulated Mr Hyndman on his election to the chair and expressed the hope that when he read his report a year hence he would be able to announce the con- ‘ cluslon of the war and victory to the Allies’ arms. Mr Hyndman made a brief and fitting reply. appreciating the honour conferred on him. Mr Cotton, Vice- President, also spoke shortly. Mr McCready, there being no other business for consideration, than moved that the Council of the Board -be instructed to enquire into and rc- port upon the fur farming industry of Prince Edward Island. in making this motion. be said, he had several reasons. One was the great import- ance of the industry and the promi- nent position this province occupied in regard to it. Mr McCready’s motion was seconded by Mr E. T. Higgs and carried. Mr Higgs moved that the members of the Board who were on active mili- tary service should have their dues paid during the term ot’ the war. The matter was doferred for consideration.

Jan. 12.-The resi- lenta of St Martin’s Junction, which s about six miles from Montreal, were iwakened at an early hour on Sunday' nornlng by the humming of an aero- 1|ane's motors. The inhabitants of he village had visions of nn aerial ittack such as at Scarborough, and were in n state of panic during the intlre day. ’I‘he purr of the alr- :rat't's engines were heard ii few ninutes -after five o'clock, and the villagers, many of tiiem clad only in heir night attire, immediately turned but ou the streets. expecting to have l bomb dropped upoil them. The nachine passed low, running towards Montreal. After travelling what ap- peared to be about a mile it swung to he south and disappeared. The Montreal police were notified. ind Lieutenant ilrlcquot wired ull of he autlioritles in the district to be on he watch, as all aviators must give iotice of any intended flights to the Government authorities, by provisions if an Order-in-t‘0uncil. -When no sucli iotiflcation is given it is preiuilued :hat the intention of the aviator or zrew is a hostile one. Notice ot' the occurrence was also tiveu the autliorities oi’ Alnerlf-mi _lorder cities, lull they disclnimcd all rnowledgc of the fllglit. The Ottawa oillcials have boon noti- led. and will probably lake iiiiinediutv iteps to lnveslillatc the matter. Pl'r|rul_ Evloencs or __ aenivlau HE/inrtizssnsss.
