It was a place of which its inhabitâ€" ants sometimes remarked easily that their city bad a population of from 5,000 to 6,000 souls, but it should be easy to forgive them for such stateâ€" ments. Civic pride is a virtue. The town lay in the hbeart of that fertile stretch of flat lands in Indiana where eastern travelers, glancing from car windows, shudder and return their eyes to interior uphoistery, preferring even the swaying caparisons of a Pullman to the monotony without. The landseape runs on interminably level linesâ€"bleak in winter, a desolate plain of mud and snow; hot and dusty in summer, miles en miles of flat lonesomeness, with mot ene cool hill slope away from the sun. ‘The persistent tourist who seeks for signs of man in this sad expanse perâ€" ceiydw=a reckless amount of rail fence, at intervals a large barn, and here and there man bimself, incurious, patient, slow, looking up from the fields apaâ€" thetically as the limited files by. Now and then the train passes a village built scatteringly about a courthouse, with a mill or two bhumming near the tracks. This is a county seat, and the fnhabitants and the local papers refer to it confidently as "our city." Such a county seat was Plattville, €apital of Carlow county. The social and business energy of the town conâ€" @entrated on the square, and here in summer time the gentlemen were wont to lounge from store to store in their shirt sleeves, and in the center of the square stood the old red briek €ourthouse, loosely fenced in a shady grove of maple and elmâ€"‘"slipp‘ry ellum"â€"called the "courthouse yard." ‘When the sun grew too hot for the dry goods box whistlers im front of the stores around the square and the occuâ€" pants of the chairs in front of the Palâ€" mce hotel on the corner they would go mcross and drype themselves over the fence and carve their initials on the top board. From the position of the sun the editor of the Herald judged #hat these operations were now in gress, and he was not deeply elated gothe knowlgige that whatever desulâ€" tory conversation might pass from man to man on the fence would probably be 4nspired y his own convictions exâ€" pressed editorially in the Herald. He chose the way to the west, strollâ€" ing thougbtfully out of town by the white, hot, deserted Main street and thence onward by the country road into which its proud half mile of old brick #tore . .buildings. tumbledown frame shops and thinly painted cottages de pgrocrated.

But he had remembered. A thousand miles to the east it was commencement day, seven years to a day from his own commencement. Five years ago, on another June aftâ€" ernoon, a young man from the east had alighted on the platform of the station morth of Plattville and, entering the rickety ommibus that limgered there seeking whom it might rattle to deatâ€" ne«s. demanded fn be Ariven te the Herald building. It did mot strike the driver that the newcomer was preâ€" cisely a gay young man when hbe climbâ€" ed into the omnibus, but an hour later, as hbe stood in the doorway of the ediâ€" fice he had indicated as bis de«tination, depression seemed te have settled into the marrow of his bones. Plattville was instantly alert to the stranger‘s presence, and interesting conâ€" jectures were bazarded all day long at the back door of Martin‘s Dry Goods Emporium (this was the club during the day), and at supper the new arâ€" rival and his probable purposes were discussed over every table in the town. Upon inquiry be bad informed Judd Bennett, the driver of the omnibus, that be had come to stay. Naturally such a declaration caused a sensation. Meanwhile the stranger was sceated in the dingy office upstairs with his head bowed low on his arms. Twilizht stole through the dirty window panes and faded into darkness. Night filled the room.

Mr. Fisher appreciated that the work of caring for the health of Canadian live stock and of guarding against the introduction of disease from abroad, through the animal quarantine service, deserved the full time and attention of the most skillful talent available.

A member of a club of advertisers said in a discussion of the relative merits of different mediums: _ ‘"‘The people of this country have been eduâ€" cated to go to the newspapers to find where to go for what they need. This does not mean that the newspaper is the only useful means of advertising but it is the universally approved medium. All believe in its merits and the advertiser who uses it gets the trade." The only question to b: still »roved is whether central curing reom‘s for a numb«r of factor:; or the imâ€" provement of the curing :o®ws at itâ€" dividual factories, is the more practiâ€" cal method of attaining the end deâ€" sired. © Some minor experiments, including the parafining of cheese, were tried at the central curing rooms. The Deâ€" partment of Agriculture is continualâ€" ly experimenting in connection with all its work. Mr. Taylor‘s statement was that paraffining had been a great hurt and a loss to the factory men whose cheese has been so treated. As a matter of fact, all the cheese sold this season at the above mentioned p C6 was paialiined, and insiead of a loss, the factory men whose cheese wa> thus treated made a gain of from oneâ€"eighth to three sixteenths of a cent a pound on their cheese. THEY LOOK TO THE Some English buyers have been susâ€" picious of this new method of treatâ€" ing the cheese, but many others have praised it, and eagerly take all the paraffined cheese they can get. The Canadian farmers exported last year $24,184,566 worth of cheese. The Minister of Agriculture believes that the expenditure of a few thousand dollars a year to discover any imâ€" provements in either the manufacture or the transportation of this product is well spent in the interests of the dairymen of Canada. ~* *_ * (Montreal Heraid.y Here and there, wherever a manuâ€" {actoring establishment has not sharâ€" e@ in the prosperity which Lord Minâ€" to so forcifly described in his speech the other night, the cry goes up that the tariff is responsible, and the tarâ€" iff being the creation of the Liberals, the Liberals should be defeated.
