this year, produce at lesst three million bushels of potatoes, most of w hich are | yet in the bosom of mother earth. Not | leas than 2.000 000 bushels will be fine, | merchantable potatoes, which raust find | a market off the Is:and.

Not since 1876 —when the largest and best crop of potatoes the Island ever pro- duced was harvested—has such a potato yield as that of this seasou been vouch- sated to our farmers. The yield will be largely in excess o1 that of 1876. and as many superior kinds of potatoes have been introduced of late years, the crop will be much more suitable for the Am- | ericau market than any we have hereto- fore produced

The old-fashioned Blues, Turnbulls, | etc., composed the principal part of the potato crops for years, and it was ouly at exceptional times that our potatoes were in demand in the United States. It was also found that our potatoes wouid not sell in England at any price. Farm- | ers, therefore, planted largely of varieties always io demand io the American mar- kets: and while the old aud hardy, and | really excellent varieties, have beeu grown to a great exteut, the Early Rose, Prolifics, Surprixe, ete., form a large bulk of the present crop. We are glad to record this fact, as these last-uamed kinds will find a market abroad, even if the old eves do not.

Ail the features of our present potato crop are highly favorable. The quantity is larger thau ever, the qualiy cannot be exeelled, and the size of the tubers is all that could be desired. It is a real luxury to sit down to a dish of our fine, handsome, floury potatoes, which all throw off their jackets as if anticipating the delight of being bolted. Kuives for peeling potatoes this year are almost superflons,

We trust that uo mistakes will be made in the matter of disposing of our large surplus crop of potatoes. Just now buyers are payiog 25 cents pei bushel for shipment. This price, taking itt» consideration the present prices o potatoes in the principal Americau markets, aud the potato crop in the United States generally, is a very fair ove, and be believe that the price will be maintained, or very littl enhanced daring the present shipping seasou. [un Boston prices range from 75 to 85 cents a bushel ; and at these prices large iots of Western potatees are ranching that market. ‘The Western States have an immense crop of potatoes this season,

especially dilinoi-, Wisconsin and Michigau. New York whose average potate crop is 25,000,000 bushels,

is estimaied as three million bushels, short; while the potato crop in the New England States has been almost destroyed by drought, althongh it is stated that Maine has as many potatoes as last year. On the whole, the potato crop of the Uuited States is fully suffici eut for home consumption If the crop was fairly distributed, none of our pota- toes wou'd be needed there. But the cost of transportation of such a bulky, coarse article, from the West to the East gives us an advantage so far as treight is concerned, as we can throw a bushel of potatoes ivto the Boston market cheaper than a bushel can be brought from the Western States.

Therefore, it is only when potatoes reach a certain price that they are profit- ably eoaveyed from the West. If they fall much below 75 or 80 cents, potatoes can- not be brought Kast; but at that price, or higher, Western potatoes can be made to flood the market if necessary. It is only a question of price, as to how many potatoes the West can or will furnish the East.

Our be

it will

potatoes, seen, must compete with those of the Western States’ At 26 cents paid

here for potatoes, shippers will realize a/|

small margin on prices now current in Boston. If prices fall, the Margin or profit will be nil.

Taking all things into consideration, we are of opinion that our farmers will not, this season, realize more'than 25 cents for their potatoes. At that price, the 2,000,000 bushels will realize to the Island half a million dollars. If our farmers hold back for higher prices, the West will supply the market, and our po- tatoes will lie in the cellar. However, tne laws of supply and demaod will regulate the whole matter, but farmers should study np the situation. Although it may appear anomalous, it seems to us from the preseut outlook, that if potatoes should fall in Boston, our chances of find- ing ® market for our potato crop would be improved.

And while cu the subject of potatoes it would be interesting to find out what is the average cost of raising a bushel of potatoes? ‘Iwo years ago we were much interested in the published report of agrower in Eastern Maine, who raised a large crop of potatoes by con- tract. He furnished the ground aud the mapnre, bat all the labor “of plowing,” planting, enltivating, digs giug ‘@od cellaring was done uuder contract. The potatoes in the collar cost him a little short of nine cents per bushel. Do any of our farmers know what it costs to produce a crop of pota- toes? Our columns are open t: ans- wers. We believe that this season the outside cost of raising a bushel of pota- ‘ces cannot be more than seven or eight

His Honor the Lientenaut Governor, accompanied by Lieut.-Col. R. R. Hodg-

‘sou, A. D. C., arrived at Summerside at

about eleven o'clock, and baving first been hospitably entertained by the Hon. John Lefurgy, proceeded to the Drill Shed to open the Exhibition. On arrival His Honor was presented with the fol- lowing address :

To His Honor Taz Monorasite Tuomas Hea‘ HaviLann, Q. C., Lieutenant Gov- ernor of the Province of Prince Edward Island.

Sir,—We the undersigned Commissioners for managing the Exhibition of Agriculture and Local {ndustry for Prince County, beg to express our thanks to your Honor for your kin«tness in acceding to our invitation to open the Exhibition.

It is gratifying to have it in our power to assure your Honor that the labors of our husbandmen have ayain this year been largely

We see each year an earnest desire and endeavour, on the part of ovr Farmers, to | unprove taeir farins, to keep good a@ d saleable | stock, to piaat and sow the best seeds, and in all other respects to raise themselves to positious of comfort and independence, thei hard and honest toil being guided and direct- ed by an enlarged and an increasing intelli-

enee,

3 The interest your Honor has always taken ip the agricultural advancement of this. your native Island, will, we feel sure, be drawn out yet more strocgly on viewing the exhibits «hich are brought together side by side in generous rivalry, not sv much for the prizes whic. the Government is enabled to give, as for the laudable desire on the part of the Ex- hibitors to display the productions of their farms aud the results of their industry and skill.

We embrace the present opportunity of conveying to your ower our heartfelt re-

In the Drill Shed the skill of the ladies at the loom, with the needle and mathook aud in the dairy, was well dis played There was a fine array of butter tubs, a good assortment of knit goods and some fancy work, while Mr. Brace, of this city, had on sale a spleudid of ornamental South Sea shells Of the ‘‘textile fabries,’ Mrs. H. Dawson. Tryon ; Mrs.4William Lefurgey.Wilmot ; Mrs Major Scharman, Bedeque; Mrs. Beojamin Montgomery, New Annaa; and the Mill Valley Woollen Mills, were amoug the best exhibitors. The art department was, all things considered, very fairly maintained by Miss Luey Pope, Mr Ackerman, and Mr. Arthur Howe. A very elegant and tasteful pivce of fancy work by Miss Earama Sch irman, of Bedeq te, was greatly ad- mired,and Mrs, Wright drew a well- deserved prize.

The exhibit of potatoes was, like that of King’s County, excellent—there were many varieties and all good; and the competition in grain was much livelier thau that of last year. But other rocts, grains and vegetables were neither num- erous tor particularly noteworthy. Some exceileat fruit was shown by Marcus Deacon, Ralph Schurman, D. A. Cobb, Wilmot; Mrs. Barris, New ‘Annan; Mrs. Inman, Neil McGougan, and Thos. Ramsay.

Ou the Cattle Show ground there was a good exhibit of horses, cattle, sheep and pigs.

The comparatively small number of stallions was more than offset by the large ‘and very creditable exhibits of mares (with their foals) and fillies.

Among the stallions on the ground were Challenger, Brown Stout, and Prince of Wales, Iron Duke and Ham- bletonian, with the very fine stallions owned by Mr. George McFarlane, and Cornelius Campbell, ail looking very well and taking prizes as a matter of course.

Mr. Jabez Lea, of Tryon, exhibited a splendid carriage colt by Royal Harry, / out of a Saladin mare, 24 years old, weighing 1245 pourds.

Mr. Thomas Heffel, of Cape Traverse showed a handsome colt, three years— ove of the Flying Frenchman breed— said to be about the fastest of bis age in the Province.

Abrahom Schurman exhibited a "filly 24 years old by Hambletonian out of a Saladin mare—a great beauty, much admired, aud judged by many to be better than even the very fine filly of Mr John Walker, to which the judges awarded the first prize. We are glad to learn that Mr. Schurman has entered his filly for the general exhibition.

The Kiuog of the Herd of Cattle on exhibition was, of course, the magni- ficient bull of George Compton, which draws first prizes every time, in both Dominion and Local exhibitions , but Mr. Compton’s bull was almost matched by the splendid bulls exhibited by James McLeod avd Donald Campbell. A very fine short-horne bull, under three years, was exbibited D. H. McDonald, of Be leque, and Messrs. Caleb Schurman and Alexander Lefurgey, each exhibited a very fine Ayrshire bull. Mr. Benjamin Cole exhibited a spleudid year old short- hora bull from the Stock Farm herd, and Mr. Stephen MeMillian, another almost, if not quite, as good from the berd of Hon, Alexander Laird.

Some very fine Ayrshire cows and heifers were shown by the last named gentleman, as well as by Dugald Stewart, Donald Ross, Thomas Glover, Willian Cairvs, Artemas Hooper and other lead- ing farmers. Mr. George Bollum ox-

hibited a Very fue yearling ‘Ayrshire bull, while some splendid Bie were

In reply, His Honor delivered one of those excellent practical speeches which the farming public have learned to look for. Speaking as a private person, His Honor declared that, were he a farmer, be would supporc no Government that did not promote our agricultural interests in every possible way.

Epison’s Electric Light has now reached the regions of the practical. Thousands of e'ectric lamps have been burning steadily in New York for the last month, and the energies of fitters have been taxed to the utmost ia intro- ducing new lamps. About one hundred lamps are added daily to the many thous- auds already owned by the company. and no less than 1,700 lamps are worked by isolated plants. The large newspaper offices of Gotham are illuminated with the bright light, and most of the steam- boats are introducing the same. ‘The Wamsutta Mills of New Bedford, Mass., qave used the lamps for the past twelve months, and report the saving over gas of $2 per 1,000 feet. The Merrick Thread Mills, Mass., give the cost of 120 lamps, for 1,080 hours of burning, at $42, as against $275 for gas. Here, then, is a revolution indeed ; not only is night turned into day, but the ligt has become both practicable aud cheap. The company in New York hope to have their business settled on a firm footing by the Ist of January, 1883.

THE DAILY EXAMINER, OCTOBER 7, 1882.

A Yourist's Ramble. ING ASPEOTS OF THE COUNTRY.

A stranger landing at our great Atlantic

seaport and taking the train for Windsor and Annapolis would not, at the outret,

be likely to form a very favorabie opinion of the agricultural capabilities of our Do- | minion. A more rugged and barren coun- try than that through which this railway

passes from the head of Bedford Basin to

the town of Windsor, would be very hard to find. For the greater part of this dis- tance no clearing can be seen frum the railway. In every direction the grey rocks may been protruding through the ground, which, I think, jraipers and birches fail to cover. In passing over this country one feels almost like agreeing with the clock- maker that this is, indeed, the place where the ballast of Noah’s ark was discharged. The neat little town of country adjoining it appears to the travel- ler like an oasis in the desert. Windsor has long been the seat of a flourishing ship- ping interest, to which the cotton industry has recently been added. The new cotton factory is a fine structure; and the wealth and public spuit of the Cownty of Hants may be inferred from the fact that nearly ali the capital for this enterprise has beep subscribed at home. In addition to its importance as a business centre, Windsor has the honor of being the seat of King’s College, the oldest of Nova Scotia’s colle- giate institutions, and one which has done a noble work in the cause of higher educa- tion for the Maritime Provinces.

Moving westward the conntry improves rapidly from an agricultural point of view, and the traveller soon finds himself in the district of Horton, the home of Evangeline, and one of the richest and loveliest spots which it bas ever been our fortune to visit. lt is said that Longfellow never visited the place which lhe selected for the opening scene of his great poem. If this be so, his description of Grand Pre, striking under any circumstances, becomes simply won- derful. The ‘‘ vast meadows stretched to the eastward,” affording ** pasture to flocks without number,” ‘‘ dykes that the hands of the farmers had raised with labor in- cessant,” the “‘ orchards and cornfields ”’ lying to the ‘‘south and west,” with

less industrious Horton independent. are not their onl

ing, are speci: lly adapted for fruit-grewing. Orchards are here thriving and numerous,

owns tracts of marsh and upland contigu-

of land, on the ‘* Mountain,” or back country, which they use for pasture in the e:rly summer. After the hay is made on the marshes the cattle’ are turned upon them. Legislation having provided regulations by which evry proprietor is allowed to tarn cattle on the marshes bear- ing @ porportion in numbers to the extent and value of his land, the necessity for fencing is entirely removed. When it is underateod that these dyked lands yield the bi st results for long periods, without tillage, manure or fencing, we feel lixe congratulat- ing, if not envying, these fortunate owners, Add to this the proceeds of their orchards, which, cnee started, requires proportionatly Jess labor than the production of cerea’s and it wili at once be seen that the farmers et Horton can maintan their families ir comfort. with much Jess bard work than their brethren in Prince Edward Island. The uplands of Horton are not however nearly eo well cultivated as those of our best farming districts. The land is more undulated than ours, and needs surface drainage less, yet the fields are thrown into high ridges in some cases not more than four or five yards wide. While our farmers could not handle the orchards as well as the Hortonians, they wouid effect great im- provemeuss in the cultivation of the upland and marshes. Machinery is not used to any great extent by the farmers here. Scarcely any of the farmers own Threshing Machines, Potatoe Diggers, or Reapers. Mowers are however in general use. The grain is, in some cases, beaten out with the old fashioned flail, and all the potatoes are dug with the fork.

The pretty village of Wolfville forms a centre for the district of Horton, and con- tains many good stores and charming pri- vate residences Here also are located the educational institutions of the Baptist denomination for the Maritime Provinces. Acadia College, with Horton Academy and Grand Pre Female Seminary, rank highly among the educational institutions of the Dominion, The college buildings occupy a commanding site, overlooking the beanti- ful country we have already described. The college proper isa fine building, erect. ed instead of the old college which was burned down in 1877. It is 150 feet long,

24 65 feet wide, and is two s‘ories high, be-

sides basement and attic. It contains ten spacious class rooms, a lecture room seat- ing 800 persons, a library containing about 4,000 volumes, a museum containing many rare aud vainable specimens, particularly in mineralogy, and a reading room.
