Dear Strs,—About a year ago I hada very bad aitack of dyspepsia. For nearly four months I never ate a meal without suffering pain after. I kept getting worse and worse until I was obliged to give up my dutiesas a teacher. I had gotso weak I could scarcely walk, when one day I saw an adyertisement for B.B.B., and thought I would try a bottle; I did so, and before I had finished it I was able to teach again. Four bottles cured me completely. Muss Jaxer Stuart, Muskoka Falls, Ont. In 19 Cases Out of 20 B. B. B. CURES BILIOUSNESS.

MAY 22, 1891. —_—> Potatoes.. Now that this important crop is being planted, every attention should be paid to those details which are necessary for suc- cess. The best results cannot be obtained by one or two big strokes. Every particu- lar must be attended to. In our general farm rotation, potatoes follow oats. Jt is presumed that the stubble was plowed and well harrowed last season, after harvest. The land should be plowed again this spring when quite dry, and well cultivated to eradicate the weeds. Spread on a good coat of short manure and plow down at once with the seed. Ifthe plow does not cover the manure well, rake it inte the seed furrows. Two or three inches will be deep envugh for the seed furrow, turning the cover an inch deeper. Just asthe plants begin to come up, har- row thoroughly. This will stop the race of the weeds. Roll, and you cau await the time of summer culture. The greatest drawback to the crop at present on the Island is the rot. This is | produced by the spread of a parasite fungus called Phytophthora infestans. This miscro- scopic plant grows in the substance of the potato plant and root, aud is perpetuated from year to year by being planted with the potato sets. Its operation in the tubers is to feed on and destroy their tissues, pro- ducing fermentation and decay. lt is of the utmost importance that po- tatoes entirely free from disease should be used for seed. Otherwise the rot fungus will be planted with the seed and infest the succeeding crop. It is a good plan to ob- tain seed from some locality where rot is nuknown, Our farmers ought to be par- ticular about this matter, for millions of bushels are annually lost to us by rot alone. Plant clean, sound seed, selected from lots that show no trace of rot in them. Shun diseased sets as you would poison, for they will prove death to every hope of a success- ful crop ! 2+6« 27+ False and Foul. Tus Patriot’s attempt to connect Mr, Ferguson with the authorship of Tne Ex- AMINER's afticles on the Senatorship is as false as it is foul, the charge is calculated to damage Mr. Ferguson. It is, therefore, made. No means are too despicable to be ignored, if they will but tend to injure Mr. Ferguson’s character and lower him in the public estimation. If the people could only be impressed with the idea that Mr. Ferguson writes articles for Tur Examiner in praise of hitnself, a step towards that end would be gained. So the attempt,— false, foul, unmanly, unnecessary, aa it is, —is made. But if the appointment of Senator Macdonald cannot be defended ex- cept by resort to calumnious personalities in the press, the case is much worss than we have ever said orthought it was! The answer of the editor of the Patriot to Mr. Ferguson's letter of denial is that ‘he cannot deny that he has spoken the senti- ments which it contains.” There is hardly in the community, Tory or who has not given expression to the same sentiments. Tae Exam- INER's article was merely «4 plain representation of public opinion respecting the appointment. Everyone ssid or thought the same thing about it. But Mr. Fer- guson, of all men, is singled out as the author of Tue Examiyer’s article. The editor of the Patriot is ready enough to complain when his name is improperly used by the press. Why is he not more careful about the improper use of Mr. Fer- guson’s name! It is the only way by which to injure Mr. Ferguson. Mr. Fer- guson is proof against fair and legitimate attacks. So, unfair and illegitimate attacks must be made. Poe ri a man Grit, ~=—_-o---- Reports from the Seat of War. WE are in receipt—tco late for insertion in this issue of Tue Examiner—of, lengthy reports of the meetings held at Boushaw and Carpaud. It is significant that the Premier—accompanied by his guide, phil- osopher and friend—felt constrained to go into the district. Judging by the report, there was not much in kis speech at Cra- paud, except a statement to the effect that he is opposed to a reduction of the Legis- lature to one Hlouse, that he is guing to issue debentures, and (if the office seekers will let him) that he will abolish the oftice of engrossing clerk for the House of Assembly, purchase a type-writer, and have a short-hand reporter in the law courts! Mr. Warburton’s financial policy seems to depend upon the increase of population. According to the report of our correspondent, he expects that the census returns will show an increase of population of from ten to fifteen thousand which will increase our subsidy by $10,000 or $12,000, —-a strange statement to be made by Mr. Warburton in the face of the oft-repeated declarations of Mr. Davies and the Patriot that the Island is becoming depopulated by reason of the National Policy ! Mr. Warburton expects, too, it seems, that the Dominion Government *‘will add $60,- 000 or $70,000 a year to the Provincial subsidy.” In other words, opponents of the Government at Ottawa will obtain that which supporters of the {Government have failed to obtain. This is a yarn for the marines—not a proposition to be believed by the intelligent farmers of the first district of Queen's. Dr. MeNeill, though outnumbered by the Grit spouters, was able to show up the weakness of the government's position in fine style, to demonstrate the economical management of the late government, and to prove that if there is a deficit in the public accounts the cause is not extravagance on the part of the late government, similar to that which prevailed under the Davies regime. Everyone will admit the truth of a remark of one of our correspondents; “‘Dr. McNeill will make a good representative, as he is well posted on the public questions of the day.” —_——_——_— —— Oro —Dr. Howie says while he was in the neighboring republic *‘Many Americans boastfully assured him that one-tifth of the population of Canada is already iu the States; but from personal enquiries and interviews with Canadians over the line Dr. Howie is convinced that four-fifths of said fifth fare far worse in the States than they had dove in Canadas, and only pride or poverty, or both, prevent their re- turn to this fair Dominion. .Ouly picked Cansdians do well in the States, and these would have done as well had they remain- ed at home. Average emigranis have a hard time of it, they tind little work, and get less for it. Farm land in Pennsylvania has gone down in value from 20 to 50 per cent. during the last Gecade; at any rate so say farmers there.” —_——___——_ e+ ore —According to a statement made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in presenting the budget to the House of Commons a few weeks ago, the consumption of home-made spsrits by each of the three kingdoms last year was ; OE 8 5. vs-sie's's coke 18,000,000 gallons Nn os Ta 6,300,000 2 ee 4,900,000 “ At the last census-taking, in 1881, the population of the countries was in each case : England and Wales.......... 25,974,439 MCIOME 60s i cae Phebe. 3,735,573 en cacti eabsaknaind 5,174,536 Thus, according to population, Scotland consumes a much lerger quentity of spirits than either England or Ireland; Ireland, on the same basis, coming second and England third. —» +++e+e--— —The Montreal Star has this report of ‘Perry the Noble’s’” parliamentary ser- vices : *-The only debate of the day arose on a me tion of Mr. Perry's dealing with the running of the steamer Stanley between Prince Ed- ward Island and the mainland. Mr. Perry wandered mightily from his text and discuseed the proposed Island tunnel and all sorts of storied grievances of the Islanders. He charged that the partial failure of the Stanley was due to the maladministration of the marine department, and ridiculed the wey in which the High Commiseioner had been kept out of his projected visit to the Island during the late campaign. Talking of the reward about ta be given to Hon, Mr. Ferguson, Conservative leader on the Island, who is likely to be called to the Senate, he gestured vigorously towards the red chamber and called its occupa's ‘carpet politicians,’ ” The soul of inouor himself, the graveSen- ators must certainly wilt under the fire of Mr. Perry's forcible eloquence.
