I.. MacDonald, Ph.D.. of lllc University of New Brunswick, Frcilericton, wllo recently completed towli, the guest of Mr G. \V. llarrisoll, I-rave all excellent address. He re- vlcwcd the political situation during the post: tllree ami a half years and compared the unprecedented record of the Present Government with the twenty years oi’ debt and decadent public works under the maladminlstra- tion of the Liberal GYovernment, Mr George Wlieatley then spoke, his false statements being afterwards 'corrected by the Premier. Tile next speaker was Premier l\Iat.llieson. He said that Mr Wheatley had made the statement that there were no contracts for the supply of goods to the Asylum and no tenders had been called for. If they wanted to know just how little Mr \Vheatlcy‘s word was worth they could look at the Royal Gazette. which was open to any person. and they could see his state- ment in that regard was absolutely untrue. Everything used ill the Asylum. he said, was purchased by tender and everything was thrown open to competition. Mr Wlientley had had something io do with thc Asylum. and llc would like no doubt to have the same opportilnitics in the referellce to a tender that was _lie- iievcd to have Mr Wlieatley at the hack of it. “We never had any satis- factory relaiions with these people; they were always trying to givc us short weight. We had to clleck cvcry single transaction with these men." The Premier then went oil to show how the public works had been im- proved since the present Government came into power and how tllo debt oi’ $1,072,000. takcn over in December 1011, had been reduced by $89,000. He dared Mr Pallnel' to say that the auditors’ report showing that debt was untrue. Mr Palmer again cvaded the challenge, nlllttcrillg sonietlling that was illandible. On resuming his seat the Premier was given a hearty round of applause. Mr Palmer followed ill a very loud _speecll, at the conclusion of which Mr Illir-Lczlil addressed the mectillg, clear- ing up some of the inisstatcnlents inndc by liilll. In regard to the taxa- tion of $71,000 which Mr Palmer had recklessly and l`nl>ii‘1y stated “Clinic out of the pockets oi’ the farmers," l\ir l\icI.eali showed how that amount uns inode up uild illallcllgcll Mr l’.il of thc pockets of the farmer."

In the midst of harvesting and threshing operations word was received from the PE. ls- land Railway train despatcher that the special picnic train of school cliildreli .hat they had estimated was bringing 200 boys and girls to the Farm had by actual count 435_scllolars and tllat they would be at the Experimental Station _ilatforlu at 9.40 a.nl, lil the beautiful grove only 250 places were ill readi- ness for the picnlckers. However, .ables that had been stored after the last big Farmel"s Institute picnic were hastily put up and _set for the very best picnic that has ever been held since the Experimental Farm was establish- ed. So left Georgetown early in the morning, Other groups of happy scllool cliildren -joined them at Montague, Cardigan und all the other stations on the 'ieorgciown Brunch lille. From Moilllt stewart they had'-il fast ride to the llillsboro Lirigde, only getting a glimpse of the Experimental Farm as they passed. The courteous railway officials gave them the extra treat of showing theni' Charlottetown ami the Harbour from the big llllishoro Bridge. At the Experimental Farm. Superin- tendent Clark met and welcomed them. it was indeed a pretty sight to see hundreds of happy children hustle out of the traili and swarm into the fields. Mr Clark addressed them, briefly oilt- lining what they might expect to see at the tSatioll and telling them how they collld help him make the day pleasant for them. He lncniioned that the greater part of the Station‘s work for the year could be ruined ii' they should forget ami pick heads of grain, vegetables or fruits. as every- thing uu thc farm had to lic weighed or measured and compared with other varieties or trees. Everybody first went through ihe barns to soc the horses and fouls and ollt to the lily pond, whcrc they gathered around it for li. pictllrc. After li plioiogritph ol' 'Ili' i§l`0\1ii was takcll the Supcriiliclld- dent tallied to tllelll about growing things, plants. allinials und illsoris and their l'clai.|ull one to another, how clover was one of the plants everybody was anxious to grow because after a ('-F011 Of clover has grown we can always look for ti good crop of what.- cvcl' follows it. llc tolli lllclll oi' some of the wnys by which wc should pre- purc the soil io grow clnvulx ns the sccd -is slnall so lilo soil should lu' worked vi-.ry fine to nililw a good holnc for lt.

Tllcy found fields of wheat.. hnrley and calls many of them cut and others almost ready to cut, with thick clover ill thc bottom of all. They saw fields that llnd been cut for hay in July that were completely covered with a second growth of clover from one foot to eighteen inches high._These _are soon to be cut for hay ngalll.

When it had been threshcd on Friday the ylcld was 82 bushels of clean grain and 3.887 pounds of straw. After it turn along the railway among the trees and shrubs that have lie-en planted there and many questions had lieon answered, everybody' gathered ni the tables in the picnic grove.

The got low and the 40 gallon' tank of hot water in ihe Superintendent'-s resi- [picnic disbanded and each went to see what was most interesting from his or her slnn.ipo'l:t. A few fell in with the guards on duty at the bee hives und. not understanding lice laws (some of which are to go quietly about your own business. and ii' you are scared dQu't run, bu-t stand your ground and the other fellow will get scared), ran through the bees’ lines and attempted to get away without giving the pass- word. Two or three of these carried away a very small memento without intending to disobey the Superinten- deut’s injunction that they could look at and feel or smell any plant, fruit or flower so long as they did not take anything from its place. After lunch the boys and girls gathered about the pernlanellt poultry house now being erected on the farln. and Mr T. A. Benson gave them all excellent address on co-operation and the part they would play ill their country's work. He showed illcm how lnucll better our country would bo if only everybody would work together for the good of their conimunlty. llc closed by telling them to ask their ioal'llcrs how this might be done.
