farmers to abOndOn credit prices and
reduce their farms to where they can
be run on a cash basis. He points out
that everything that can be raised on
a farm should be raised there, and that
the aim of the department is to aid
the agricultural classes in increasing
the farmers profit by reducing the
cosS'6f production.
He recommends rotation IN crops
and believes in drainage, irrigation,
terracing, blowing deep on red lands,
and barr owing and. rolling. He says
that the practical farmer who makes
farming a success will keep all the
stock he can maintain, and that stock
of every kind should be kept, but only
the improved breed.
He also believes in the industrial ed
ucatiOD of our children, and thinks the
future of agriculture depends largely
on that.

mon. This does not include the minor
exercises which make almost continn-
al service all day long.
Yesterday the attendance was some
what better, but not up to what the SER
vices deserve. The gate receipts SO far
have been larger each day than the
meetings held last year. still the associa-
ton had hoped that there would have
been more people ON the grounds. The
ladies of the association have done
much to help out with the indebtedness
and with their help considerable money
has been raised. Nearly half of the
debt Of $4,000 owed on the grounds will
be wiped out this season and next year
the ladies expect 10 do much better.
They are already figuring on fine pro-
gramme and intend TO have many not
ed ministers on the grounds.
Sam Jones, who once preached at the
meetings, Is one that has already beeen
decided upon. The ladies feel confident
that he is drawing card and have
about closed contract for his appear
ance at next seasons meetings. Just
who the others will be has not been de-
cided upon, but they will be ministers
OF note Yesterday the exercises were
opened by a sunrise prayer meeting
led by c. c. Mathews. president OF the
association. There was quite a large
crowd out and the service was very in
teresting. AT $3.50 Rev. Hill conducted
the Pentecostal service. This Was at
tended by a large crowd and the vefy
able minister interested his hearers b.
reading many verses in the Bible and
commenting on them. The next was
the song service, under the direction Of
Rev. Ruble. Nearly all the congrega-
ton took part, which had the effect Of
adding much to the success OF the morn
ing's exercises. Rev. A. Cameron was

he failed to arrive, and Rev. G. II. La-

The general holly objected to being

Labori, equally warm, said: Il am
only asking for definite statements.
Mercier then said he thought Drey-
fus might have had cognizance OF the

case he had a better chance to obtain
such knowledge than Esterhazy could
possibly have had"

sire to
EMPHASIZE THAT EXPRESSION.
We shall now prove Dreyfus could not
have had cognizance of the brake.
Counsel then proceeded to demonstrate
how vigorously the secret of the con-
struction of the brake was guarded.
The passage at arms between NJ. La
bouri and Gen. MERCER were followed
with the keenest interest. Both men
were wary and mutually suspicious of
each other, and there was considerable
acerbity Col. Jouaust at times found
difficulty in preventing the discussion
from wandering outside legal paths.
The cross-examination of Gen. Mercier
became more and more heated and so
rapid that it was difficult to follow,
and many of the answers were confus
ing.
AS the questions of the counsel
touched upon the secret dossier and
certain document in blue pencil, Gen.
Gonse, Gen. Roget, NJ Gribelin and
Maj. Lauth also participated in the dis
cussion, which almost degenerated into
a wrangle. The government commits
sary, Maj. Carriere, protested against
such discussion, and Col Jouaust order
ed silence.
At the request of NJ. Demange, Gen.
MERCER was recalled and asked to ex
plain why, having sent De Patty de
Clam to Dreyfus to discover the amount
of injury Dreyfus had done, he had not
followed up his Investigations?
Gen. Mercier-I did not feel called
upon to do so.
The prisoner
AGAIN PROTESTED
that the inquiry ought to have been
followed up, because it would have
served to destroy the fiction of a con-
fession, to which such Importance was

sponsible for the story that he found
a marginal note, on the subject of the

occurred during the proceedings, was
looked upon as indicating desire to
