Donnlley, a bigbly respected and much beloved citizen of that place, passed away. Deceased had not not been in good health for some time, but not until the past few months did her illness assume a serious aspect. During that time, and more es pecially in the later part of her illness, she suffered much, but with @ patisnce and resignation that were wooderful. On the above mentioned date she passed away calmny and peacefa.ly and eanctified by the last rites of her church. She was a mucb honored member of the community in which ebe Jived, a kind and loving mother and a particularly zealous and God fearing Christian, everintent on doing her duty to God and society.

Henry, who is among our most prominent horti-~ culturiste. Ee asked several questions which were readily and satisfactorily an- swered. Remarks were also made by the above named gevtlemen, after which the thanks of the meeting was tendered the learned speaker and suitably acknowl-dg- ed by him. Mr. Marks himself can boast of one of the finest orchards in this p*o- vince.

HASZARDS’S OR HARTLEY'S ? Mr. Walter Simpson and Mr. Fred G. Bovyer in their letters to the Farmers Advocate give such bigh praire to the Hsezard’s Improved Turnip. We must, however, take exception to Mr. Bovyer’s Improved,” genuine Haszerd’s Improved are sola by us for many years, is not Hartley’s Bronze Top, but is quite a different type of turnip, growing much more out of the ground, and having more of the favorite tankard shape. it ie, besives, a specially selected strain of Swede, as much abead of Hartley’s Brooze Top and other ordinary grades of Swede turnip as Mr. Bovyer’s pure bred stock is better than the ordivary farm stock of the province. The genuine Haszard’s Improved costs more than Hartley’s or any of the other kinda, and it isso d atab gher price. We re]! it now, as we bave for years, in sealed cardboard packages. Yours tra lv, Geo. Carter & Co. Britain Got There First.

A week ayo it was the cruel edict forbidding the representatives of the Finns to petition against the decree , of coascription, which virtua'ly muesian- stated to be for improving the means of traffic on the Western aud Cevtral sections and 31,000,00@ roucles during four years for new rolling stock. The aggregate amount to be slloited to these purposes ia the current year is 16,000,000 roubles. WITHOUT PRECEDENT IN RUSSIA, The assignment of such a large amount for improving a railway only just con~ structed is without precedent in the annals of Russian railway enierprise, and, in order to appreciate how it is that 80 much attention and money are being absorbed by railway work, to the detriment, perbaps of other imporiant matters, it must be re~ membered that the Emperor himeelf, as president of the Siberien Railway Com- miitee, personally supervises every item, technica! and financial, and tbat his able Minister of Finance 1s essentially a rail- way man. The above sum is in addition to 30,500,000 roubles for the Siberian rail- way, end 1,000,000 ronbles for other lines im this year’s estimates. INCREASE IN TRAFFIU. A St. Petersburg correspondent states that the increase in the traflic on tie east- ern and still more, on the western section of the Siberian railway has surpassed ail expectation. Its construction was origin- ally planned On economical lines, but the the light rails, whici are only 18 pounds instead of 24 pounds to the foot, will have to be changed. Everything was calculat~ ed fer not more than three pairs of trains and Krasnovodsk. The fast year’s traffic thee urns of the western Siberian section show 350.000 passengers, nearly 490 000 tons of goods, and 400,000 peasant emi- grants. Last winter, although 600 new trucks were added and 1,600 old ones borrowed there was an accumulation of 7,» 006 ttuck loads of goods for which no mean@ of transport could be found. Of the 490,000 tons carried over the railway in 1898 more than 320,00@ tons consisted of cereals. Io the course of the next five vears, tis expected that the carriage of wheat here will reach over 800,000 tone per:noum. Inthe Altai mininz district aloue at the present moment there is @ surplus 0f 355,000 tons of wheat, while in Central Russia whole populations are starving. ~-_- -—-—~—-~—> o The Queen’s New Yacht.
