Motherwell to undertake; this work. Hon. Robert Weir, the new; Minister of Agriculture, is planning! to make a, complete investigationl with a view to developing Va more; efficient system of federal supervis-T ion. it is anticipated also that Mr., Weir will mobilize the most expert; opinion to advise and assist in bring- ; ing the great agricultural industry to more productive and prosperous’ conditions, and that he may form an honorary advisory council compos- ed of representative practical and, scientific agricuiturists from each* province to meet semi-annually to` E1 . review conditions and advise on measures to meet new problems: ` It is evident that Premier Bennett made s. wise choice in the selection ` of Mr. Weir as Minister of Agricul- ture. and that our farmers in- this Province as well as throughout Can- ' ada will be the gainers thereby.

Last ycar ` Charlottetown received much favor- able publicity due to the absence of serious automobile accidents on its streets. There are still a few care- less drivers, who, if there is no traf- ` fic officer in sight, do not hesitate to ‘ ignore stop signs and other regu- lations. There is also a. grave dang- er in the practice, referred to at the I City Council meeting, of childrenl hopes of brotherhood and goodwilll are amongst the commonplace; of alll political platforms, that the danger, of war actually breaking ~ out lsl correspondingly remote. We rememberl the signing of the Kellogg Pact andi forget that on the whole Europe isi becoming more heavily armed: ive’ comfort ourselves with the clegantly expressed paelrlsnl ol this and that? statesman. so tllat the monstrous: figures for armament expenditure inf the Budgeu of the Great Powers pass ` unnoticed.

The chief value of a. good memory: is that it is productive of thought. 1 But lt is foolish la load the mind ` up with all sorts of things that can be conveniently gotten out of refer- ence books. If m~n depended wholly on theirl memory. they would be the some sort of men today that they werei ‘thousands of years ago. ` made to do without some life ,saving discovery, which some poor member of tllc profession handed to the world for nothing. It would make them pause and thereafter speak well of tile bridge that carried them over. If the discoverer of the diphtheria scrum asked one thousand dollars for enough sevuni to save the life of a child. the parents would gladly pay it ,or work to save that much if it took years to do it. Tile discoverer of insulin' for dia- betics which llas saved thousands of young lives, and prolonged the life of thousands of adults. could have been as rich as any of the above men had he clllirgcd the world for his discov- ery. Yet he "gave lt” to the world, and governments give it away to those too pool' to buy it. The Panama canal could never have been built, the Canal Zone never have been habitable had not a phy- sician rliscovcred that the mosquito was the cause of yellow fever. And the discovcrer of the X ray? Supposing' every X ray examination and cvcry plate used in an X ray ex- amination paid him a royalty. what about the hundreds of millions of dollars that would have been his.
