NOTES AND COMMENTS
According to the Department of Trade
and Commerce grain statistics, the
number of bushels tat wheat inspected
in 1893 4 was 17 010,295; in 1907 08 the
gaantity was 74 845,421. The total
grain iraspeoted in 1893.4 was 38,335,191;
in 1907 08 it was 107,918.9s-6 Canada is
getting to be quite a grain producer and
she has hardly struck her gait. -Hamil-
ton Times
Everything points to the return of a
moat satiefnetory state of proepetity in
Canada. The gnvornment revenue and
customs returns are steadily increasing,
while the pnbho deposits in Oauadian
banks have increased to the enormous
extent of $106,000,000 as compared with
last year In the United States less
rapid but steady progress is being made
towards normal conditions.
The revenue of the Dominion for the
two months of the current fiscal year,
acoordifig to the unrevised statement
issued last week, was $13,613,974, as
against $11,899,381 for the same period
last year, or a betterment of about a
million and three quarters. The chief
source of increase in the receipts is in
customs and miscellaneous. The post
office department -collected fifty thou-
sand dollars more than it did in May,
1908. The expenditure for the month
of May was $3,500,630, as compared
with $2,555,90.4 in May, 190S.
Mr. P. H. McKenzie, ex -M. P., for
South Bruce, has returned from Scot-
land, whore he has been spending four
months currying on a propaganda for
the immigration department. He found
general depreseion in Great Britain,
and the Scottish farmers have suffered
severely. "These tenant farmers would
improve their condition by immigrating
to Canada," said Mr. McKenzie, "and
they are anxious to come, although
loath to leave Scotland, where their
families have lived on the same land
for centuries. They are also influenaea
by social conditions."
In her admission of new citizens,
Canada is showing considerable dis-
crimination. Pauper immigrants from
continental Europe are not wanted and
are forbidden to eater. Newcomers from
the British Isles, with their vigor and
their little copetences, are gladly wel-
comed, and no bar is placed in the way
of thrifty and healthy immigrants from
Scandinavia and Germany. What Can-
ada desires is immigrants who will take
to agriculture. Such newcomers are
needed to build up the country and to
grow with it. The Canadian policy is
wise and businesslike, and is bound to
have good. results. -Cleveland Plain -

LACK OF BLOOD
Is What Causes Headache, Dizzi-
ness and Heart Palpitation.
On the blood depends the welfare of
the whole body. Where good blood
exists disease is unknown, but where
the blood is poor and watery disease
quickly seizes bold of the body -it is
then headaches, baokaches, dizziness,
heart palpitation and other serious
ailments maks themselves felt. Good
blood oan always be obtained through
the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People. They actually make good,
rich blood and thus restore boat strength
and banish disease. Mr. Herbert Han-
son, Brewers Mills. N. B , says: -`+I
cannot praise Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
too highly. I was troubled with head-
aches, dizziness and loss of strength and
had a hacking cough which I feared
would lead to consumption. tried a
number of medicines witho benefit,
but was finally persuaded o try Dr.
Williams' Piuk Pills. I did o and used
these Pills for several mon a with re-
markable results. They elped me so
much that I now st n y recommend
them, to all other suffers."
The experience of Mr. Hanson is
that of thousands of others who have
found health and strength through
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills after other
medicines had failed, It is through
their power in making good blood that
these Pills euro such troubles as anae-
mia, indigestion, rheumatism, heart
palpitation, neuralgia, nervous troubles
and the distressing ills of girlhood gad
womanhood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People are sold by all dealers in
medicine or direct by mail from The Dr.
Williams' Medioine Co., Brookville,
