' In following up our comments on the Liberal man-
ifesto we can treat planks 2, 6, 11, 13 and 15 in part at
least together: _ _ _
No, 2.-The abolition of the War and Health Tax,
being a reduction of revenue, affects all others. That _is,
first, reduce the /general revenue and then, (No. 6) raise
the school teachers’ salaries; (No. 11) give generous fin-

Improvement of Educational System.-(a) Encour-
agement by higher salaries to teachers to induce them to
remain longer in the teaching profession, thus insuring
a more experienced class of teachers.
(_b) Better grading in the Elementary branches,
thus ensuring a good common school education. '
(c) Further development in instruction in nature
study and rural science branches.
_ (d) The expenditure of the Dominion Grant for
technical education in establishing at some centre or
centres a school or schools for instruction in agriculture,
fishing trades, and other occupations. _
Agriculture.-1. Continuation and expansion ofthe
policy of furnishing an adequate supply -of mussel mud
fertilizer.
2. Encouragement towards the selection, and stand-
ardization of farm produce, thus establishing a reputa-
tion foi' the agriculture products of this province in or-
der to obtain the highest market prices.
5] _ ‘
b _ , _
0 The promotion of the movement of securing' pui'e
red cattle, sheep, swine and other live stock.
4. The underdraining and reclaiming of the low lands
of the province, so insuring yearly crop.
5. Further 'development and encoiiragcinent of
ancial assistance to the returned soldiers without money School Fail.S_ _
to do it with; (No._13) make revenue and expenditure
meet, by first reducing the revenue and then increasing
the expenditures; and then (_No._ 15) give gr_eatei‘ en-
couragement and assistance to fishermen; tins also to_
be done after reducing the general revenue whichis al-
ready too small. _ _
- Taken all together, it will be a wonderful perform-
ance; viz., first, lessen the income, then increase the ex-
penditures as a plan to make revenue and expenditure
meet.
We will, of, course, lrear that we must take into ac-

when Mr. Bell obtains control. _
Let us ese what is the sum total of what they pro-
posed in that direction when the estimates were being
voted on. They challenged and divided the committee on
every item in the estimates which they proposed to re-
duce or strike out entirely. ‘
Following are the items and amounts of reduction:

Mr. Shaw, Chief Engineer’s salary, strike out. _ _ _ 2,000
Total proposed reduction . . . . . _ . _ _ . _ _ _ _ . _
_.$6,400
_ Thus, Mr. Bell’s party proposes _to reduce the ex -
penditure $6,400 a _vear and with that reduction they
claim the War and Health Tax amounting last year to
$30,944.02, can be abolished notwithstanding that last
year there was a small deficit as it was.. At the same
time they propose to give the teachers larger salaries,
the soldiers more generous treatment, and the fishermen
greater assistance and then, of course, make ends meet!
But two of the items amounting to $800, Crown Prose-
ciitions, etc., and Executive Council mileage, are uncon-
trollable expenditures and cannot be reckoned on as a
possible saving. Hence the pile of savings drops to
$5,600. _
Dispensing with the services of a Secretary of Agri-
culture and closing the School Supply as part of this plan
of economy are strange ideas in a progressive policy.

It is as yet too early to indulge in predictions as to
how the grain and root crops of the province will turn
out, the weather and the potato' bugs having yet to be
reckoned with. The hay crop, however, is now assured
independent of weather conditions, with the exception
of the harvesting of' the crop and this, judging by the
past, may be looked forward to confidently.
_ Another of our already assured crops is fruit, par-
ticularly apples. The fruit has already set and there is
promise of an exceptionally large crop. In this connec-
tion our orchardists will be we'll advised to give the apple
crop every possible attention, for present indications are
that apples will be a big price during the season. It is
said that already the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick
apple crop has been purchased by_a large Canadian can-
ning concern and the market will require every apple
that can be marketed. With a little care the apple crop
of this province could be made to yield many thousands
of dollars._ Heretofore only a few . of our orchardists
took sufficient care of their apples to make them fit for
market and in consequence our Island apple crop has not
acquired such a reputation in the market as would en-
sure a reasonable price._ This year, with necessary care,
§_\;§_1_'y apple _in the province can be sold at a good figure.
se growing apples would do well to make such ar-
gangements as n_i'a_y be necessary with the local fruit men
or a market, giving them necessary assurance of good
quality and _prompt delivery. These arrangements made
early in fthe'-.Won should ensure a g0¢_d.ma,~ket for all
the apples vb* oan' produce,  _ _ _ _
