Success or failure depends on method. The soil and climate afford everything that is necessary to produce the best agricultural results. In P. E. I. there is only one way of creating wealth, that is farming. The value of the agricultural products of Canada is estimated at about $600,000,000. There are many difiiculties it is true in the way of the farmer of today, the demands of the market are peditors are able to produce foods in large quantities. He dealt with the help afforded by the government to the farmer by the Expeiimtal Farm in searching into the best methods and in their application to farming. It is pro- posed to establish illustration stations in all the provinces next year in which different varieties of grain and vege- tables will be grown side by side and different methods of cultivation applied. Such a station as this would be a great benefit to P. E. Island farmers, He spoke of the necessity of a proper selec- tion of seeds and a careful cultivation of the soil. In connection with the former he showed two samples of secd grovsa , .. to ‘he eastern train having been’ in three fields resulting from a careful selection of seeds during three seasons, the larger seeds being planted each year. The same principle would apply to oats and wheat. lt is possible by proper selection to increase the yield per acre at least two fold. He advised frequent meetings among the farmers to discuss the seed question and to have more co-operation. He also spoke at some length of the advisability of giving more attention to the raising of hogs a id gave some prac- tical hints in reference to shelter, feed- ing, etc. The. Island could raise very good bacon hogs and he was pleased to learn that Island bacon had gained a good reputation in England. The Island hen and chicken also came inim- vgoodly sliare-ofgattention, He_ advised the raising of poultry and "to employ the best methods in feeding and marketing. There is, he said, an un- limited demandafor the proper kind of chicken and it will be found a profitable investment for Island farmers. Mr. '1‘. J. Dillon gave a short address by invitation of the chairman. A HAMILTON LADY Finds Laxa-Liver Pills a perfect cure for Sick Headache.

C., Feb. 24.-‘-Aus- tralian advices by the steamer Miowera tell of a remarkable bicycle ‘race in Syd- neywhich was won by a dead man. It occurred at the big electric light "carni- val. In a mile race therewere 50 en- tries, some of the fastest men in Austra- lia taking part in it. _ While 10,000 people watched this particular race which was for a magnificent cup, young James Somerville passed under the tape a winner and a dead man. ‘ At thdstart Semen-ville quickly forged ahead, followed‘ closely "by another‘ crack rider named. Percy Ctifl." ~ They left 48 riders away in the rear and shot around the track almost wheel to wheel. When within 25 yards of the tape Som- erville, who still led by half a wheel. Was seen to relax his hold on the handle- bars. His pedals whirled around, how- ever, and he pluckily held his position. Five yards from the tape Cliff put on a tremendous spurt and struck Somer- ville’s hind wheel, shooting, the machine with its almost inanimate burden, like a rocket under the tape. The crowd yelled wildly, but silence ensued when Somerville aftcr crossing the tape plunged headforemost from the machine on the hard track. When picked up he was dead. Physicians who examined his body said he must have had an attack of heart failure on his last lap. DIED- ~11 At Eldon, on Feb. 14.. 1899, infant daughter of N. A. and Annie M.
