exfERIM ENTAIL FARMS.

The importance attached To the var
rious Australian governments to the
| encouragement OF agriculture, espec-
! tally by the diffusion OF practical
knowledge, is shown in the fact that
in most OF the colonies a department
of agriculture has been established, the
| official head of which is member of
the colonial ministry. In New South
! Wales the necessity Of providing the
means of technical agricultural edu-
cation, and establishing a college and
model farms in various parts of the col
ony, became fully recognized. and a
site suitable for central establishments
was selected at Ham Common, near the
town OF Richmond, in Mawksbury dis
trict about thlrty-nine miles from sgd
ney, where an area of about 1000 acres
WAS reserved for the purpose. The build
ings and furn shngs of the college and
farm now i'm their seventh Year of ex-
istence, was completed in January 1896.
anu officially opened on the 14th Of
April. of the same year. Accommoda-
tion is providei for ninety-six resident
students, and during 1895 there was q
full roll. Theoretical as we'll as practi-

Talking Through Your Moral Hat;

Talking Through Your Moral Hat:
HERE for instance is a reason ad-

that can be easily punctured

law should not tolerate a public per-

among the most precious of our stage
creations.
Thieves, burglars, forgers, embezzlers

Hight
No one ever thinks OF calling on the
police to arrest and imprlson these
stage villains or 10 suppress the plays
in which they appear.
What is there in the human tempera-
ment that would make distinction be-

The unwrItten Instinct:

| The Unwrltten Instinct:
THERE is reaAy no great complica-
tlon.
The public conscience instlnctlvely
| discriminates and may be relied upon
as Offering a safe guide.
1t is on the whole better for an In
divdual or a community 70 err on the
side OF being TOO right than too wrong,
of being TOO decent rather than too in
decent II there Is any doubt about &C.
II is no crime to be inica and what
is called PuI1tanism does not harm
anybody.
II a thing looks bad. smells bad.

Ia drop II even though a very good ar
gument may be advanced to demon
strate that il isn't really bad
So far as the statutes undertake to
define the difference between right and
wrong they express The ideas of the
majority on the subject and the minor
ity must necessarily submit to the re-
straint imposed upon their free action.
That is why arguing moral question
as a question of law is so often USE
less.
The public conscience is the judge
and the merits of the debate will not
necessarily prevail.
And the public conscience usually
erra only on the right and better side.

might be difficult to frame
But that the distinction is sharply
and intelligently drawn admits of no
argument. The explanation is found in
the vague but quite generally under
