Taken as whole New Brunswick
is no further north than Minnesota,
while Nova Scotia is farther south.
Halifax is as far south as the south
ern boundary of Minnesota. As to fer
tility, the land is variable. as it is
there. Agricultural opportunities are,
| believe, almost as great, almost as
unlimited. yet they lie, neglected and
undeveloped.
The spirit as well as the flesh is
weak so far as tuning in on agricul-
tural projects and possibilities are
concerned. To advance in business,
the prevailing idea here is that it
must come through the addition of
new industries. Agriculture, in this

A Gentle Hint.

The office manager had forgotten
his penknife, and everybody else, it
seemed, had forgotten theirs. He
called Tommy, the office boy, who
fished from his pocket the desired
article.
How is it, Tommy" asked the
manager, that you alone of my office
staff seem to have your knife with

Il suppose" replied the boy, "it's
because | can't afford more'n one

But this is a depression. The size
of the college at Truro would not,
perhaps make favorable impression
in comparison with either the Morris
or Crookston schools of agriculture,
yet it represents the Province of Nova
Scotia. 1t has apparently dismissed
the school of agriculture idea as we
know it, and makes its appeal to the
professional class. 1t is college OF ag-
riculture to train the leaders Of farm
ers and home-makers rather than to
train men and women to be farmers
and home-makers themselves. That
is what Harvard and Minnesota as
well tried to give in the beginning
courses with an appeal to the silk
stocking class-in the day before the
wearing of the silk stockings became
universal. l should say the institu-
ton is being starved on an annual

Greatness of the Late J. J. Hill.

Impressions received in visiting
these provinces have given me deep
sense of appreciation and admiration
for the late J. j. Hill. He was man
of remarkable talents and rightly
named Empire Builder" Mr.. Hill
was great not because he became
wealthy; not because he built an i'm
portant transportation system and
was its guiding genius; not because
he had such marked influence on
commercial life; these were but the
results of his greatness. Mr.. Hill was
fundamently and pre-eminently great
because he saw life's complex puzzle
pieced together in one harmonious
whole. Each part performing its pro-
per function. With skill and precision
he measured the value and relation
ship of each part of the others. and
their worth to humanity. He under
stood life and humanity. When Mr..
Hill said, agriculture is the basis of
our prosperity he stated a fact that
is being accepted all too slowly even
by those who stand out prominently
in our great industries. 1t is the
basis of civilization. Think as you
will of its trials and adversities, it
still stands out boldly as the eternal
foundation of right living and high
thinking. AS conditions are unfolded
in the Maratime Provinces | am more
and more deeply impressed with this
truth.

ease and rapidity. Fishing, here, like
mining in Minnesota, is large COM
mercial enterprise, involving millions
of dollars. Cold storage rooms, re-
frigerated by artificial processes,
smoke rooms, drying kilns, barrel and
box-making, in fact all sorts of Ia
bor-saving devices for handling and
marketing fish are used in this big
business. Most of the fishing smacks
are propelled by sail though some
have engines run by oil or gas. One
OF the latter which | saw in the har-
Dor was said to have cost 100000.
This is the big side of the industry.
There are others where two or three
own one small boat and go out to-
gether and sell their catch for what
ever they can get, to the corporations.
1t is hazardous business at best
and lasts only part of the year, as
the large boats usually make but
three trips a year-twO, of three or
four weeks duration, and the long one
to the Banks lasting two or three
months, depending upon the size of
the boat and upon the size of the
catch. This leaves considerable time
on shore in which to engage in any
other work that happens to be on
hand. Some have homes several miles
away, depending on housing facilities

Luneburg is seventy-five miles west
of Halifax. 1t is on the southern
shore. The land is rocky all the way
and the railroad as it follows its
course, winds in and out among them
