There seems to be no falling off, in point either
of variety or of quality, in the contents of the little organ of the Colonial College. Old pupils appear to take a positive delight in giving such bits of information as come their way to Colonia, and the latest number contains articles on such different subjects as "Frozen Meat," " Oranges and Vegetables in Florida," and" How to Cultivate the Bump of Locality.' " The writer of a paper entitled " The Opportunity," contends stoutly against the popular doctrine that "it is a bad time to go to the Colonies." He holds, on the contrary, that now is the best time, and that "A thousand pounds invested to-day, either in England or the Colonies, will buy or hire twice as much land as it would twenty years ago; farms and runs can be stocked with sheep or cattle in most of the Colonies at the present time for comparatively small sums."
