This cannot be had without le pure breeds. His experience goes to show that, in general, crossing le common breeds of the country with any of the improved breeds, ends i. disappointment. However, half u loaf is better than no bread, and we pel assured that half bred pork is better tlian no bacon, and would there- pre i-ecommend those farmers who can have access to a thorough bred ani- mal of either kind to embrace the opportunity to improve their common lock.

I such grants being limited, however, to $240 to each County, and to 8200 ere there is only one Society ir. i,he County. In consequence of the largo Tiber of Societies, these linuted sums are not sufRcient to ensure to each iety a grant double the amount of subscriptions, and therefore the mo- r is apportioned among the Societies in rateable proportion to the subscriji- js. rhtse Societies have been of great benefit, and it is very desirable "; one should be estjiblished in every thriving agricultural district. In some leties quarterly or monthly meeting.s are lield for the discussion of agri- l^ural subject.^. Some hold plougliing matches in the Fall. Others cou- themseives entirely to purchase and maintenance of thorough bred stocic "le use of members of the Socii'ty.

" THE STANDARD " has acquired a marked character for liberal mani,gement, being the first institution which relieved Policies of Assur- ance from rest.ictivo and unnecessary conditions, and gave such con- tracts increased value and stability in other ways. Thirty days of grace allowed for payment of Premiums, and Policies valid meantime. Forfeited Policies revived n'ithin thirteen months under certain con- ditions. Policies of five years duration unchallengeable on any ground con- nected with the original documents. Policy holders permitted, without payment of extra premium, to join Militia, Yeomanry, and Volunteer Corps, and to perform any military duties required of them in peace or \?ar in defence of their country. Unconditional Policies, without any restriction as to residence, granted on lives of persons settled in life. SurreDder value of Policies ascertained by a fixed scale. AGENTS IN NOVA SOOTIA.
