Bvanell. the young Tut-(mm hunk clerk who 3 years ago stule 340.000 of the funds of the Crown Bank. was ro- leased on parole from Kingstnn Peni- tentiary a few Weeks ago. Banwvll had been sentenced tn four years im- risonment in March. 1906. but. was iheruted before thta expiration of his term. He told t-hejudge that he had 1::an the money in order Ln carry out the engagement with the young lady to whom he was hetruthod. There has been an amicable end- ing to the controversy between Rev. George Jackson and Rev. Dr. Car- man. At a meeting on Tuesday the question was taken up in a spirit of peace, and Mr. Jackson was confirm- ed in his appointment to the recently created English Bible chair at Vic- toria College. One clause in the res- olution which was unanimously carried contained these words “It is considered desirable that whatever has been written of a personal char- acter calculated to wound the feelings of brethren or interfere with their work be withdrawn.” Hon. A. C. Rutherford, Premier of Alberta, won a splendid victory on Monday when he practically swept the Province. In a house of 40 the conservatives have only carried 3 seats. Neither Sir James Whitney nor Hon; Mr. Hanna, who replied on be- half of the Government, said they would, nor they would not, act on any of the suggestions of the deputa- tion. The Premier, however, re- minded the deputation that in regard to the three-fifths clauses “on a former occasion an audience of‘2,000 people had told the Government; what they might expect if they did not take the course they dictated." “Well,” said the.Premier, we did not do it, and in the election which followed not one word of criticism of the Government's course had been heard from Rat Portage to Cornwall. showing that our action had the endorsement of the people of Ontario as a whole.” Evidently Sir James Whitney re- gards the threats of the temperance party as mere bluster. The temperance deputation who recently waited upon the Ontario Government relative to changes in the license system got poor satisfac- tion. The deputation asked that the Government forthwith introduce such legislation as will abolish the bar- room} the treating system, and drink- ing in clubs, also that the three-fifths clause in local option contests be re- pealed, this being considered contrary to justice and fair play.

A luI-gv’ number of appiiut- Liuns are already in for this scansuu. At the conclusiun’nf each Slll'Vl‘y :l drainage demonstration is held in the field. and simple, practicle mvthznds nf surveying a drain, di‘ll-‘l‘lllillng its grade and securing it true lmltnm are demonstrated, and the hem-le nf drainage discussvd. - Underdrainage will pay for itself in from one. to three years. Perhaps no example in Ontario demonstrates this more conclusively than the drainage of “The Rittenhouse Furm" at .lnr- dun Harbour. in the Niagara penin- sula. Originall it was very Wet. so much so indce that often the crops were scarcely worth cutting. In 1906 Mr. M. F. Rittenhouse of Chicago gave it to the Government for an horlin cultural experiment farm. In 1907 it was underdrained. the lines of tile being laid about four and a half rods apart. In many places the subsoil was very, very heavy an that the digging was hard and the cost high, about $25 an acre. In 1908 on the. part that was lormerly the wettest it grew 65 bushels of nuts to the. acre, thereby practically paying for the drainage in one season; for, the. year previous the oats on the. same land were not worth cutting. The Rittenhouse farm was surveyed and the drainage system fol it phlde by the Department Of Physics at the Ontario Agricultural College. Any farmer in Ontario who is contemplat- ing underdraining may on a pplicatiou have his farm surveyed, the lelllS planned. and the grade determined. A finished map containing this in- formation a (i also the size of tile advisable is s it to the owner as soon as completed. The only outlay con- nected with the survey is the travelâ€" ing expenses of one man from Guelph to the farm, consisting of railway fare. meals and cartagc of insllu- ments. The railway fare is only one cent a mile each way for this Work. Demonstration 0! Methods of Surveylng tor Dralnage.
