We make fresh CLUB. Sin,—Ow ng to eventg of importance trapspiring in rapid succession siuce our last meeting, the ex-in-,ector deemed it the club together. Mr. Ex-Lnspector :—Since last addressing you, matters of great gravity have aris:n requiring your judgment and tact in order | to dispose of them to your satisfaction and | in the interest of the great Liberal Party. Hackett hasbeen unseated, and it 18 neces- rary to select a candidate for that riding. The reason alleged for the unseating vu! Hackett, is thata friend of his gave a voter ‘wo swigs of whiskey out of a bottle. This seems to me very trivial and unfair. Suppose our representative through the acts of some of us received the same treat- ; ment, what would be the result? George knows well enough, that during the last Federa! election we distributed more than enough of exbilirating fluid to float the Great Eastern, and we all remember with what a javish hand the Deacon dispensed | pecuniary tokens. It cannot be helped now, | as the seat 18 vacant, aod it is our duty to Gil it with a man Of easy virtue, who will | not forget to Lestow | generously resigued the | ment with the peuple. ; urged to present to your del berations the rewards for favore Perry the Noble should be our In that event the cffice of [nspec- tor of Fisheries wiil become vacant. As [ insnectorship of the light bou-e contract in your avor, I hope you will support my application for Fistery Inspector.

Davy, who has only a_ limited acquaintance with the multiplication tavle, has been appointed Inspector of Weights and Measures, and a competent man superannuated. The Assistant will do the work, and the only measure that will engage the mind of Mr. Davy will be the measure of his salary. | look forward to your cordial support, and suggest that in case [am provided for in this way some of vou would, in the future, have the opportunity of becoming Ia-pector of something. As matters stsnd now I have a bill of sale of all Governmen:® jobs. I am al-o direct-d to rémiud you of the Government’s promise to ascertain by a plebiscite the views of the electorate on the Prohibition quesuon.

It makes my blool boil to think of the depth cf degradation to which Canada has sunk under the mismanage ment of tbe Liberal Party, when a foreign potentate is called upon to dictate terms to our representatives. The course to fyllow in this watter is for you to determine. The Deacon quickly arose with anger depicted on his massive brow. Tne Deacon. —What is to become of the Protestant Faith, for which our furefathers bled and died, if in this enlightened age we are to bend the knee in homage to the Pepe?

We had to use the devil’s weapons to hurl frofn power a cor- rupt and aespotic administration. Now we are asked to bow the knee to Baal. Count me out. This speech created great commotion among the faithful, and the sweet singer arose to calm the elements. The Sweet Singer:—The sentimen’s of the Jast epeaker do credit to his hed and heart; but is it judicious to give ex- pression to such manly and independent views? I myrelf was once pure and uno- defiled, and had visions of morality and sincere opinions. I waz bold enough to attempt toinfluence the electorate with arguinents on temperance and righteous- ness. My conclusions on the subject were just, endorsed by all religious creeds and medical science, but our great Liberal Party thought me injudicions, in uphold- ing publicly principies calculated to save the souls ond bodies of men. The little Czar of our local sat npon me; and I was annibilated by hissneers and denunciations. Since :hen I sit upon the safety valve of my conscience, aod thank my stars that f have escaped uertructiou. At that great crisis our vow courageous and over zeal- ous Deacon swallowed bis convictions aud joined in the liberal ery “crucity him.” I would strongly urge any member of this club who has budding ideas of independ- ence or candor to smother his convictions, and accept the convenient creed of his party. Although Ihave been crushed in my conrcientions efforts to destroy the demon of intemperance, the effect of my labor is evid-nt ia Prioce County. In Kings Country it isthe custom of the county to imbibe and no corruption can be inferred from the ultimate use of the ardent. In Queens County the liberal lhbations, generally administered by Sol Clark aod othersto help the elector to torm his choice, cannot by our Courts be construed as an act of corruption; but in ' my County of Prince two swigs is enough to unseata member.. Through my abor- tive efforts, the drinking habit has become so rare that a single instance of treating indicates a deep Jaid conspiracy for corrupt purposes. ‘this speech seemed to paralyze the membors. During the profound quiet Mr. Joe MacLellan arose to addie28 the mem- bers. Mr. Joe :—It is only a short time since [ joined this Club, and it wont take me long to leave it. It is true that you look upon me asa natural, or one lacking a shilling of the pound intellectually. That may be so, but “there are others.” Con- ecience is my guide in all matters. When I joined this club I understood the Deacon was making efforts for the union of his Church with the Holy Catholic Commun- ion. After studying his conduct in this club and out of ityd uo songer want to row in the same boat with him. He not sincere in either politics or the temper- ance question. The Liberals legislate by commissions in Church and § ate, afraid to act for themselves. They promised as tree trade; now they are for high protec- tion. They promised us prohibition ; now are in fayor of tipp'ing. They promised 8 usan iocrease to our local subsidy ; no attempt is in sight in this direct on. They assured us of their loyalty to Great Britain; but we find them coquetting with the United States and threateniog the latter country, that unless they traae with us, We against our , will be com- pelled to trade with Great Britain, They promised that all partic! elections shonld be beld at cnet; but we find them is-uing writs fur vacancies favorable to themselves first and postponing those like- ly to return Opponents. They promised that office-hoiders would not be interfered with without investigation, and proof cf partizanship but we fiad them discharging otticials without trial, to make room for greedy camp followers. They promised us improved communication between Summerside and the mainland, and they gave us the Petrel, a bird that can neither wishes fly nor swim. They promised us a breakwater would be built = in Summerside Harbor, but beyond tht Presidenc’s Lill for his walking ma cbes over the ice, we have nothing to remind us of the promise. The Liberal party are great only in proving recreant to every pre-election pledge and promise. The Deacon and President are oppcsed to the Club presentivg an address to the Papal Alegate. Nodoubt they are. Piety and Religion forms no part of their make uy; boodle is their much wovshipped'diery. The meeting broke up in disorder while Joe was speaking. Mac, —- —_—_ --—---—— Selecting Dairy Heifers. While there is much good breeding to produce general characteristics of dairy excellence, it cannot be wholly depend- edupon. It is not every heifer calf from good or even registered stock that it will p2y to keep and rear for the dairy herd. No matter how far back his registry @oes, the breeder of cattle will some- times be surprised to find heavy, coarse heads and the thick, bull-like neck, which, to the experienced eye, shows that the mating has been unfortunate, breeding back to characteristics of some long forgotten ancestor who flourished before the dairy excellences of cattle had Been thought of much importance. In such cases the sire and dam that thus bred back ought never again to mate. Perhaps the fault was not exclusively in either, but in the combination of blood, in which the undesirable qualities of each were represented in the offspring. An experienced breeder can decide be- fore the calf is even a week old wkether it will be best adapted for beef or dairy purposes. The true dairy animal will have a somewhat thin neck, though it should compensate for this apparent in- dication of lack of vigor by having wide nostrils and a deep chest. The dairy animal quite as much as that for the shambles, and, indeed, more than that, needs to have good lungs and good di- gestion. The calf ought not to be too greedy for food; but it ought to be al- ways ready for what is set before it. There is a peculiar softness in the skin of a good dairy animal that the experi- enced breeder will quickly notice. We have always found in native stock that a yellow skin around the bag was an indication of good qualities for milk and butter. The escutcheon also, if broad and well marked, #s a good indication. We have seen some deep milkers that had small escutcheons, but we never saw a pocr milker that had one that was well developed. A great deal depends on the way calves are brought up. The best heifer calf may easily be spoiled by being fed fattening food or by semistarvation be- fore it is a year old. Neither extreme is desirable because both are injurious to digestion. If this is ruined in calfhood, the cow will be a poor eater, and there- fore a poor producer, as long as it lives. Starving calves is less common than it used to be when a run at the straw stack with cornstalks twice a day was, with a very little hay, expected to take the calf through its first winter. There is nothing in this ration to make growth, and the calf cannot eat enough to keep np its condition as to fat. Some kind of nitrogenous food should be given in suf- ficient amounts to he)p make the earbon of the cornstalks digestible. That of the grain straw will not be digested, and not much of it will be eaten, as its car- bon is mostly woody fiber. It does not cost much more to keep a yearling weil through its first winter, and ihe result is that the animal gives a profit on its wiuter’s keep instead of being worth even less in spring than it was when put up in the fall, as a peerly kept calf is sure to be. —American Cultivater.

Mow Fiectrical Appliances Are Now Util. ized For This Purpose. When electrical plants were first in- stalled aboard ship, lead incased cables, run in ordinary molding, were used al- most entirely, and in ¢ase of tron ships the huil was freguentiy employed for the return cireuit. The latter raethod scou passed out of uve, for it not only increased the fire hazard, but was in- cfiicient mechanically, and also liable to give rise to disturbing infinences on the ship’s compasses, Lead ineused conductors in ordinary molding were used on the first two United States men-of-war having elec- tric plapts—the Trenton and Omaha— but with nnsatisfactory results in each ease, In the latter ship, the clectrieal plant of which was installed by the writer in 1884, the lead inecased port und starboard mains passed throtgh holes bered in live oak knees, one to about each six fcet of run, and the writer has recollection of the difficultics encountered in boring several hundred three-quarter and half inch holes through about eight inches of guarled ocak, very nearly as hard te pierce as some of the tougher metals, Ft is perhaps necdiess to say that the cost cf laber end tcois was no small item iv the ccvt of iretallaticn. Lead incased conductors were finally discarded, except in some special work, as the protecticn from injury to the in- sulation and from moisture, which the lead sheath was supposed to give, was found ‘to be iilusery. Dents caused skort circuiting on the sheath of the conductcrs, while punctures, permitting the entrance of racisture. led to bad grounds as well ~ short circuits. At the present day what may be call- ed a composite system for the installa- tion of the distributing conductors is employed. Equal security in all parts of the installation is the object kept in | view, and to obtain this several systems are blended together as one. While | molding and flexible conduits are used | in the saloons and cabins, the conduct- crs in the machinery spaces and holde | are run in iron coduits, which are thor- . oughly innsulated on the inside, and special fittings are employed in passing through the decks and bulkheads. Spe- cial water tight switches, cutouts and fixtures are also used wherever there is exposure to the weather.—E. G.
