I take it that we meet here to discuss questions bearing directly upon | our business as farmers, each as he has neenevee success along certain lines, willing as the result of his experience | g ive advice that shall be helpful to Our very presence indicates that the idea of cooperation has get hold of us. If we have learned that working together for the common good means our individual good, that the success of our neighbor means our own personal benefit, we are taking a true and bruad view of things. Our high-- est aim should be that we as farmers, should live under the best conditions possible. In our homes there should be as many bright and happy hours as are to be found in the home of any class anywhere, and I think that any- thing tending to this end comes with- in the range of suitable subjects for our consideration. I bring no new idea to this Associa- tion, but I would emphasise an old one. Weshould make provision tor our intellectual as wellas our material improvement. Here, it seems to me, we are not quite up to the mark. We pride ourselves upon our good educa- tional system,—and we may. AFTER CONFEDERATION when the ballot-box system of veting was first introduced into this Province, I believe I am well within the mark in stating thatin the country districts fully 30°Lot the electors were unable to mark their ballote, because of their inability to read; to day 5% would prohably eover the number. Yes, we canread, we proudly call ourselves an educated people. But are we as generally well in- formed as we should be ? We read the party papers and I suppose it is neces- sary that we should. Under present conditions, wisdem seems to indicate that a man should take his own party paper. Leta liberal take a conserva~ tive paper or a conservative take only a liberal, and the chances are the boys will grow up to look upon the tnen who belong to their father’s party—their father’s included as~—well, no better than they should be. And feed a boy upon both papers and the logical re— sult will be a conviction that all men of all parties are insincere and dis- honest—net a healthy cenditien of mind by any means. For the complete development of young steck we must have a well balanced ration, and the average news- paper does not furnish all that a grow- ing intellect requires. WE SPEND MONEY FREELY for luxuries, we provide generously for our children’s pleasure, and yet I ven- ture to say that we farmers of P. E- Island do not, on an average, spend five dollars a yearin the purchase of good literature. There are in our homes boys and girls, and men and womer, too, who these long winter evenings are thirsting tor good reading, like Oliver Wendell Holmes, “want a book as a tiger wants a sheep.” It man is acombination of the intellec- tual and the physical, then our duty to our children is to provide for their de- velopement along beth these lines. Individually we may not be able to procure for them the reading they should have, but by co-operation we can. In our several branch associa- tions a smali annual contributioa from each member would ina year er two provide a good library that, if properly managed, would be of incalcuable good to the community; and just here I may say that if the bonus now given by the Government to some of the branches was granted only to those maintaining a good library, it would be of much greater general benefit than expended as it now is. IN A FEW—TOO FEW— rural communities in this province, the yment of weakness I | P rovided for those | } } +} 9} ing granciathers Of the present zed the fathers ; generatio nh recogni of ; coed literature building up Of a str moraland cultured operation ey established libraries. | = What has been the result ? one of these communities today and the first thing that will strike the high average intelligence people. A short time best platform spe importance a pomes in the intelligent, By CO as NE | eople. you is of the akers we have in the |} province, in referring to an address | just delivered said, ‘They tell me | talked over the heads of the people.” | Knowing he had spoken not long _be- fore in a different locality, ota thous- and miles from the home of our worthy president, I said, “It didn’t go over the heads of the people there.” “No,” | he replied, “I would like to. see the man who could fire anything too high for them to reach.” He paid a high compliment to an intelligent people, and I felt that, anconscicusiy, perhaps, he also paid a tribute of respect to the wisdom and forsight of the generation gone before, who had, through the medium of a_ public library, brought theirchildren inte close touch with the world’s best thought. Beecher once said, “No one has a right to fbrimg up his children with- eut surrounding them with books, if he hasthe means to buy them. It is wrong to his family” TAKE THE BROADER VIEW that itis a wrong that any child should grow up without the privilege of easy ac- cess to good literature, and let us right the wrong by hearty co-operation. The Sage ofjChelsea uttered a great truth when he said, “The university of these days is a collection of books.” I would like this idea to get such a hold upon us that we should not be satisfied until the poorest boy in P. E. I. should have a right to an education in Carlyle’s University with the chanees largely in favor of his graduating a cul- tured, intelligent and useful citizen, A better future for farmers as a class lies along the line of greater intelli- gence brought to bear upon their busi- ness, and the remedy for many of our social and political evils will come with a broader and better education. A professional politician said of one ef uur intelligent settlements, “We can’t spend a dollar there, there isn’t a man in the place you wouldn’t insult by the mere suggestion of anything fer his vote.” There are mot too many such places in P. E. 1.; but they will multi- ply when a higher education developes a keener sense of responsibility ; and a good library in each of the localities we represent, would be a power in bringing in this better condition of things. There are so many other reasons [| might urge, but I have net quite fer- gotten your gentle hint, Mr. President, that a cardinal virtue in a paper might be its brevity. REMARKS. Mr. W. Simpson said his district had had a library forthe last 50 years, ard it had been of great benefit to the people. They now have over 400 volumes of the very best of literature. Mr. Clark, of Cavendish, said that Mr. Crosby’s paper was one of the very best presented. He moved a vote of thanks to Mr. Crosby.

The war in South Africa has greatly increased the rmanufacture of khaki cloth, more then 15,000 persons now being engaged in making the material for the British soldiers. The word khaki is of Hindoo origin and means dust or clay-colored. The cloth is made entirely of cotton. It was probably firstused bythe English soldiers in Iudia. It is very durable and is well adapted for use in hot climates, such as the English troops have been oper- ating in for many years. As is well known khaki cloth is also used to a large extent in the United States army | § in the Philippines, Cuba and Porto | Rica. A distinct advantage of this cloth in South Africa is its “invisible- ness,” and it is worth noting in this connection that, according to an | English journal, the horses of one | regiment have been dyed khaki color, | in order to render them less easily | seen by the enemy et COULD END THE WAR. Mr. A McDonald, a Toronto coal merchant hasa project by which the war in South Africa might be finished in one or two battles. His idea is to use in the advance protected machines, some of which would light up the enemy’s position at night, while others would shower dynamite, nitro-giycer- ine and other high explosives on the foe. Mr. McDonald, says that his bro- ther, J. F. McDonald,of Buffalo, and himself are members of a group of in-- ventors, who have spent several years in perfecting machinery, which he states could be made ready within a week and shipped to South Africa on very short notice. W eather Does not Matter. The climate of Canada makes men fit for fighting in any country of the world, says the Montreal Star : During our long summers.when the sun shines hetly for many days, Canadians be- come accustomed to almost tropical heat, but the cold of winter and the abundance of ozone in the atmosphere prevent the enervation that is usual in the hot countries of the South, which have no real winter. But it is not sur- prising that the South Africans should expect to see the men from “snow- swept Canada” wilt under the scorch- ing heat which almost prostrates the natives.
