The Globe and The Mail have ibeen endeavorng to boom an- inter- snational exhibition to be held in T0- (ronto in 1901. The 'World has def velared itself in opysosition to the: .proposition, and in its leading edi- =torial on Monday says :-â€"â€"The Globe’s proposal for a pyrotechnic display in rthat year is the outcome o‘fa desire to makeeapital for Sir Wilfrid. Laurier when he and his party are called rupon to give an account of their :‘stewartshipf The World does not ~say why The Mail takes the same’ ground as The Globe on the subject. One million acres of winter wheat will likely be sown in Ontario'within sthe next three months. As the Variety sown has a marked influence upon both the quality and the quantity of the crop produced, it is very important that the. very-best kinds he used: An increase in yield of one bushel of Winter wheat er acre means a total increase 0 one million bushels for the province. The average annual yield of winter wheat per acre in Ont- ario for the past fifteen yeais is about twenty‘seven per cent lower than that :of Great Britain and Ireland and , about thirty-one per cent higher than that of any of the winter wheat grow- -ing States of. the American Union. ‘The aim of Ontario should he to ap- proach the record of the former rather than that of the latter. The average yield of winter wheat in Ontario for the eight years ending with 1898 is 21.6 bushels per acre, and that for the eight years ending with 1890 was 18.5 bushels per acre. Hence the change in average yield of Winter wheat per more in Ontario is moving in the right , direction. The growing of this important crop has received a good deal of attention in the Experimental Department of therOntario Agricultural Gollege with~ The World of Monday hes a two ‘column article in which it is alleged (without any proof) that the whole -countryside is indignant over the action of the commissioners in euttin g of? a license in the' town of New- market. The above quotation is afair sample of the whole article. The fife-ct of the matter is, the commission- éers were forced by law to cut off one 'hotel, and it may easily be imagined that to do so and give satisfaction to 'everybody would be a diffieul-t task. "The‘publio will take little stock in Elle =insiimaitiou about “ boodle ” when they know that the commis- :sioners are Messrs. Eugene Cane, 0. r0. Webb and John Yates. thi-oughout Ontiu'io. It; has been found that the varieties which have given the. best average results in the experiments conducted at the College. for a. few years in succession have nearly always given good satisfaction cm the. farms of the province. Seven varieties of \ViJltP!‘ .wheat .yscm sent out for coâ€"Qpemtive experiâ€" in the past ten years. V arrieEies ob- tained from the United States. Eng- land, Germany, Franc-c and Russia are being carefully tested along with tllosa secured frum the wlwut growing soc- tiuns of Canada. After the varieties have. been carefully tested in fhe ex- perimental plots at the College in each of five years. the loading kinds are selecbefl for coâ€"opei‘ativo experiments Would The World be good enough to suggest which hotel shoutii be cut. 011'. ' Is this What My. W. F. Maclean M. P.,'calls honest journalism? “The North American Hotel at Newmarket has been cut off by the License Commissioners of the town 93nd the inspector.’ There were no eompiaints against the hotel and the action has raised a flurry in the town. The owners of the property, all well on in years, are left without income. For years the hotel has been the headquarters on market day. There is not at present aceonunoda- tion in the town for them when they arrive with their produce. The feel- ing of intense indignation is sweep- ing over the entire county, irrespect- ive of party, creed or principle. Temperance men speak as strongly as the farmers. Stories of boodle are freely circulatedâ€"~51 $500 dealâ€"~Who was ‘ the man from St. Catharines ’ ? :The question is assuming a political significance."
