NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—The watering cart was out—today.

—They’re getting it {o in the Fhiliys pines !

—A deficit of forty-:hree thousand odd dollars— Liberal you know.

—The Woodstock Times asks : “Where are the free traders?” And the Ottawa Citizen answers they have all become pro- tectionists,

—Seven hundred and fifty dollars of the people’s money for ove trip of the Govern- ment delegates to Ottawa,—-and nothing to pay the railways.

—Thougbh nothing in particular was done last year, the expenditures of the Provincial Government amounted to more than any of the years of Conservative Administration since 1880, with but one or two exceptions.

—What a fuss our Liberals used to make when the Conservative Government had to pay $2000 or $3000 to the banks as inter« Now the interest charge is civse upon $19,000 a year—-and nothing to show for it—and tbe Liberals never utter a woid of complaint.

| SEED WHEAT NOT MILL WHEAT.

An Open Letter to the Farmers

Our expert wheat buyer, who has bought for us this season pearly 5000 bushel of White Russian seed wheat, writes under date of April 17th, as fol- lowe: We are mailing you a semple of last car ehipped end of theone we are ready to ship. Weare taking every pre- caution to have the wheat all pure White Rusvian and only the other day refused 4 car of choice jooking wheat, eaid to be White ussian which we could buy twelve or thirteen cents per busbel ander our price, but did not take it as we were quite satisfied that it was fully three- quarters bearded wheat.” This jeter shows how necessary itis todeal witb people whoare careful what they buy aod honest enough to refuse anything that is not genuine, even it Otfered al a cheaper price,

Some time ego we were offered & fine locking sample of wheat from a deal- who wrote “We have received our samples of Ontario seed wheatand we have mach pleasure 10 forwarding & sareple of it. The only place we can gel such agrade will not guarantee it pure White Russian Wheat. There may be bearded in it, and we will sell it on its merite.” "This wheat could have bees bonght for 15 to 20c per bushel less than we paid for White Rugsian at the same time, but we did not buy a bushel of it.

We have imported a large quantity of teed wheat this season West Fife and Ontario

| North | White Russian ana bave more on the way, | and we wish to say that nota bushel of this wheat has been bought from a mil! or a miller, net a bushel has been bonght by | us, except on the assurance of thoroughly | reliable Seedsmeo and Dealere, that it was ‘true to name, and we have refuts ed any and every lot offered, of the gen- uineness of which we had any doubts. Further, when, on examination, we have

found eny lots of this wheat that could be improved by further recleaniog, ve have not hesitated to go to the expense of recleaning it.

Such wheat cannot be sold at as low __sprices as bargain jots, mill wheat, or mixed wheat. But we are seedsmen, not grain specula~ lators. We are in the business for a lite-

time, not fora year, and it is our aim and anxiety as it has been all through our twenty years of seed busimess, to hand! only thoroughly reliable seed. We cannot guarantee our eceed. No _seeds- men can dothat. But we alwavs iry to

have it right, we don’t knowingly sell avythivg tbhatis vot reliable, and our

tweaty years of experience in conducting the largest seed business in the Provinces evables us to kuow what kinds are most

suitable for ths Province and where to procure the best of its kind. We shell

iake every poseitle precaution to safe- guard the interests of (hose who sow our avd while our prices cannot be as low as some unreliable or low grade seed may be offered, we will sell as low as Seed of equal quality and reliability can ve had iu this or avy other country,

Mecstof the merchauts of the Province seilour seeds. Let those tarmers who want .lem aek their Dealer for ‘ Carters Seeds,” If they cannot be had from your dealer apply to as direct.
