It THE DAiLY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, NOVEMBER 17 1398 THE DAILY RYAMINER NOVEMBER 17, (898. MR. DILLON’S DOINGS. Tne reporters state that Mr. Dillon, nlone, has this year purchased in this an average price of 8 cepts, The amount he has distributed amongst our cheese factories, this season is, therefore, clos npon $136,000. It would take a good many schooners and a lot of fuss to export representing’ this oats and potatoes amount,—while numbers of fields would be the poorer as aresult of extracting much fertility from the soil. But th | fields are little the worse, some of them e#! | the better, for our exports of dairy produce and the good money that is coming into the Province on account of | it. For all this Mre Dillon is entitled to 'ereditand thanks. The late Government, Dr. Saunders and Profe:sor Robertson initiated the movement which has been the . 2 . salvation of many of our farmers ard an untold benefit to the Province. But Mr. Dillon carried it ont. If it had not been for his tact, energy, economy and care at the inception of the work, the movemeat could not have made such rapid progress nor resulted so successfuly as ithas. It is greatly to be regretted, we think, that the present Minister of Agriculture, while footsteps of his : ; following closely m the ; ’ } : ad da , . « predecessors and carrying out their gene ral | policy, saw fit to discharge Mr. Dillon | | ’ | from the employ of the Government. If Mr. Dillon were still a general supervision of the factories in this Province, itis not hkely that cheap mea would have been employed to make nasty cheese in any of them, and it is likely that the character of our dairy output would be higher in the Brijish market than itis today. Let us hope that what has been the loss of the Province wi!l be Mr. Dillon’s gain, avd that he will find tbe re- ward of his early labors in bandsome | profits on his later purchases and sales. ——- -— » + @ + & —_—_—-—_—_- --——~ SHEEP RAISING. Comment upon Mr. J.H. Clarke’s letter ‘about the growth and use of rape is un- necessary ; for the information afforded by it is definite and comylete. But our lately changed conditions make advisable a few | words #s to sheep raising in general. Never has the demand for sheep and lambs been as etrongin P. E. Island as it has been this fail. Direct steamship communication between this Province and Great Britain has been the means by which a good many sheep and lambs have been disposed of while a great many more have gone to the neighboring Provinces and to Boston Indeed, we entertain the opinion thai some of our farmers have been induced to part with ewes and ewe jambs which they ougtt to have retained for breeding purposes in future years. Having got the taste of our mutton the people of Boston and vicinity, as well as those cf the neighboring Pro- vinces, evidently “ hanker ” after it; and we have no doubt that the people of Eng- land, as well, when how toothsome it is, will be disposed to pay good prices for it, they discover Under ail the circum-~ stances, the prospects of an extended and steady market Jambs and full- grown sheep are bright and encouraging. Purchase for our by weight having been intro- cuced, farmers must see that itss greatly in their interest to have their sheep and lambs as large and heavy as poseible. To this end judicious breeding and good feed- will be well worth while to take pains in these directions. In respect to the first, the selection of large, well.bred, vigorous males is important; acd in respect to the last, Mr. Clarke’s letter will afford at least one pointer. ‘ens of thousands of sheep bave been shipped from the Province this year, leaving be- bind them richer fields and fulier pockets : and what has been done this year may be = —_——— — Theres , Province about 1,700,000 lbs of cheese at in office, exercising | j done in larger measure in other yeare, —if only our» farmers prudently increase the size of their flocks and are ready to take occasion by the hand, I Oe eters ee NOTES AND COMMENTS. —The city of Victories, B. ., reporte a surplus of $33,000 on the operations of the civic vear lately closed; and the Montreal Gezette says that “ the kind of aldermen they have on the coast would be worth sending west to kidnap.” a WY early death of Mr. Allen M sNeill, of the Indian Department, Ottawa, will be lamented by many friends in this city as will as at the capital.

A reduction .f fares ie, we believe, advisable in the interest ol ke of the public and the government, ~ — Lord George Hamilton, Secretary of State for Indie, speaking in London said he agreed wita Lord Salisbury that it was quite impossible to overestimate the im-~ portance of America’s entrance upon a colonizing policy. “England and Ameri- ca,” he declared, “whose ideae and inter- ests are identical, should stand side by side in the promotion of civ'l'zation and good goveroment in the dark places of the earth.” —An Oitawa correspondent reporis that there are no signs of any immediate inten- tion on the part of the Government to cause bye-eleciions to be held to fill the vacancies in the House of Commons. There are now six vacant seats inthe Commons, and about as many more which are practically vacant, as the gentlemen who nominally hold them are understood to have practi-~ cally accepted cftices offemolument under the Crown, although not yet actually ap- pointed. —Farming says that “ it is covceded by everyone closely identified with the Canadian dairy trade that we have about reached the maximum quantity in regard to cur export trade in cheese. We are now sending to Great Britain annually about $15,000,000 worth of cheese. The export market bas now reached such a stage that if we increaseto avy great ex- tent the quantity of cheese we put upon the market areducticn in price is sure to follow.” In view of the fact that cheese makers in the States, in Holland and in other countries are being gradua'ly driven out of the Canadian market by Canadian competitors, the; grounds for the conclu- sion arrivcd at by Farming are question- able. As others go tack, let us go fors ward, — After referring to the“Thoreugzh and CoM pit te FY patloy eo policeadvle between the motherland and her colonies,” Mr. Chamberlain, ip the coarve of bis latest speech, continued as fol ows: ‘* What is of equal importance, our American kinsfolk bas begun to understand better.
