About four miles from Cardigan Bridge, on the south bank of the Brudenel! River, to the westward of the road leading to Montague, Inkerman Farm, owned by John Robertson, Esq., occupies an elevated and commanding ition. From the Brudenell River, which at this place is no more than a rushing, gurgling, brawling brook, the land rises abruptly for about twenty chains until the summit is reached, and here to the southward of a aoble grove of birch the homestead and orchard of Mr. Robertson are situated. The farm was one that in former years had been owned by a Mr. Dewar, and when it passed into the hands of the present owner, was in a very different state of cultivation from what it is at the present time. Now, how- ever, unwearied labor and intelligent man- agement have made this farm equal in fertil- ity to any in the Island, and the many prizes received by its owner at our exhibi- tions for grain, roots and fruit, attest to the excellence of its productions. But the great attraction at Inkerman Farm is the orchard. Sheltered on the north and east by the grove of birch trees before alluded to, and on the west by a spruce hedge, planted some few years ago by Mr. Robert- son, the aspect is one beautifully fitted for a great fruit-produciug plantation ; for this orchard slopes gently to the south, thereby giving excellent drainage; but has not sufficient fall to carry away auy fertilizers necessary for the proper growth of the trees and their fruit. In company with a friend from Charlottetown, we visited Inkerman Farm the other day, and had the good for- tune to find Mr. Rebertson at home. After having looked at the several substantial and convenient buildings erected by Mr. Rob- ertson, and examined some new ones in course of construction, among which we noticed an excellent hen house on aa im- proved plan, and a fine large building to be used for storing and sorting fruit, and under which « frost-proof cellar is being built, we proceeded to the orchard. Here we were in almost a forest of fruit trees, plant- ed at equal distances and in parallel lines. Mr. Robertson told us that he had about 500 apple trees bearing, including such choice varieties as the Duchess of Olden- burg, Emperor Alexander, Gravenstein, Pearmain Blue, Haas, Fameuse or Snow apple, Tetofsky, Golden Russet, King of ompkins County, Red Astracan, Early Strawberry, President, Inkerman Green- ing, Inkerman Seedling, Northern Spy, Baldwin, and Bishop’s Pippin ; besides twenty-five varieties grafted, among which are Ben Davis, Talmon’s Sweet, Sweet Bough.’ orter, Paul’s 1 ial, MeIntosh , and others. “The trees » heavily laden and in many cases had to be supported by props, and judging by what we saw, the crop. this year will be very good. In plums we noticed a great many fine trees, there being some 120 bearing this year; and we were greatly pleased to notice their freedom from black knot, which is generally so destructive to this fruit. Mr. Robertson has the follow- ing varieties of plums and gages :—Island plum, Moore’s arctic, Lombard, yellow egg, DeSota, Coe’s golden drop, Imperial and green gages. A large importation of wild goose plum, received a year or so ago, has been a total failure, or the number ot lum trees would have been much larger. Mr. Robertson considers the Island plum as good as any variety, as they are hardy and good croppers. Besides the trees bear- ing, we notice a number of young grafts that are being grown for sale, and will be ready for market this fall. Trees grown from thoroughly acclimated stock, like what Mr. Robertson has, should be more successful in this Island than what is im- ported, and no doubt many persons will be glad to encourage native industry by send- ing their orders to Inkerman Farm. i small fruits, Mr. Robertsen has been very successful. This year he had picked over thirty bushels of gooseberries when we visite the orchard, and half the trees were then loaded. Among the 400 trees bearing are Houghton’s Seedling, Big Bob, Downing, Crown Bob, White Smith and Smith’s Improved, all fine varieties and splendid producers. So great a quantity of gooseberries has Mr. Robertson, that he intends canning a quantity of them for export. In currants, red, white and black, about 500 trees are bearing, including white grape, red currant, Lee's prolific and black Naples, all good varieties and {ull croppers. On the south side of the orchard, where young trees have lately been planted, the vegetable garden occupies the space between the rows, and good samples o! parsnips, mangels, carrots, beets, cabbages and turnips can here be seen. Without the exhibit from Inkerman Farm, our Exhibitions would lose some of their chief attractions, and we trust its productions will be as suceessful in future years as they have been in the past. We would particu- larly wish to call attention to the fact that this orchard has all been planted within the past fifteen years, and is an illustration of the capabilities of our Island for produ- cing the finest quality of fruit. We hope many of our farmers will pay a visit to Inkerman Farm, and thereby be encour- aged to follow the good example set by Mr. Robertson. G. F. O. September Ist, 1888. Apvice to MorHers.— Mrs. Winslow’ Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natura) quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as ‘“‘bright asa button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the , allays all pain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy for diarrhwa, whether arising from teething or other causes. Tweaty-five cents sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, and take no other kind. [April] °88 ———— ee Grey Flannels, very cheap, at Stanley Bros., Brown's Block. dy wy 3 Bros’. ugil a bottle. Be! Thirteen Servant Girls! Waytep in Charlottetown, thirteen ser- vant girls, as per yesterday's EXaminzr and Patriot, of whom six must must produce references, while seven apparently, will be tanae on faith; perhaps on probationary trial. Similar wants are observable in many of the towns and cities of Canada, especially in the Maritime Provinces; as a Presbyter- ian divine (late Rev. J. McKinnon) once said to me: ‘‘We marry our people, we baptise their children, but the half of the latter marry and die in the States.” In- deed the Lower Provinces furnish Boston principally all the female servants (or help required; the work there is harder an more particular, but the pay is greater, the chances of marriage (and good, too) a thousand-fold greater, and the facilities for bettering her cundition innumerable to a smart, steady, virtuous girl. Physically our girls are equal to the average Ameri- can, and morally, not inferior; as regards temptations to evil, why they exist every- where, and if girls “‘ enter not into temp- tation,” but pray ‘‘ lead us not into temp. t«ion,” my experience is that temptation ‘+ will not come nigh them.” The inno. cent people who imagine Boston all evil, and girls going there, all ruined, would be laughed at by the thousands of happy, virtuous girls and women of households in Massachusetts, who have ventured into awful Boston and never regretted the steps that led them first to independence, then to homes of their own ‘(if away from heme and countrie.)” Girls in service here have not all ease and sunshine; wages are poor, work hard and hours long; privilges few and treat- ment, too often from su-called ladies! (save the mark), such as a Boston woman would not give a dog or cat. I have known girls hurried oat of bed at 5 o’cock, lug water across fields of a winter morning for a day’s washing, doing all the work of a household of four to ten persons, and getting to bed 11.30 at night, all for the magnificent sum of one dollar and a quarter a week‘ or five dollars a month, and three evenings out. Is it any wonder they (the girls) emigrate ? Again, are girls subject to no temptations in Charlottetown? The parents in many country homes could tell a very differeat tale! On the “reference question” it seems ‘* sauce for the goose should be sauce for the gander.” Perhaps the girls want ‘*reference” concerning the would-be masters and mistresses ; and why have they not as good aright. Perhaps this ‘*‘ refer- ence question” causes a good many of the. advertisements in the provin- cial wApers, Girls are looked upon as chattels, and are supposed to be deaf, dumb aud blind to a great deal of domestic misery, unhappiness and crime ; slighted then by the female head, and worse, often by the male, nv wonder they leave, shake off the dust from their skirts, and join their friends in Boston.

All kinds cf grain appear to be an excellent crop, which, doubtless is owing to the abundance of rain during the season, Mr. Thomas Murpby is erecting a hand- some and costly dwelling house on one of his beautiful farms. This building, when completed, will be one of the most beauti- ful country dwelling houses iu P. FE. Is- land. The cost is calculated to reach $5,000. Mr. Walsh, of Charlottetown, and Mr. Campbell of this place are the builders. The ladies who have been visiting their friends and relations here during the hot summer months, leave in a few days for Boston and other cities in the United States. We wish them a pleasant trip.
