TRUSTS AND FREE TRADE.
The Toronto World In an article on
"Trust. and Free Trule" makes two
merions error'. One is in attributing
to free traders' the tit/dement that
trusts and combin,IC cannot exist
under the trade sy.t•m which they
advocate. The .Pcpnd error is in :1.-
.uming that trusts and combinations
are necessarily hurtful.
In so far as balsan and combinations
are created for the purpose of effect-
ing economice in production, they :are
w benefit rather than a menace to the
pihlic. 11 is when they set mit to
destroy competition and nib... prices
that they are dangerous. Thie they
can do only in countries with a pro-
tective tariff. Where the tree mule
system in in force the c petit. f
foreign Hrme ie always a lector in
keeping prices ata normal level.
Frere traders do not claim that
tenets and Combinations Ito not exist
in (jreat. Britain. Their formation in
that country ie a natural development
of modern business methods, tending
to the production of manufactured
article. at the lowest possible cost.
But s(1 long am (creat Britain main-
tains its.yst.Pm of free imports. there
is no reason for the people to fear the
truatl. In the United Staters and
Canada, however, the tempi. different.
Here, combinations of the manuf are
torrent in any article of commerce nosy
be formed in either country, and with
a protective tariff to keep ret foreign
competition the combination, or
tau* bas the public at its nmcr/'v.
We know how this worked in Canada,
for M814111..1•, in connection with the
pl la•rs' supply trade. In the
Uuite. Sates, where the tariff is
h higher than in Canada, the
trusts have a oorreepuudinKly greater
opportunity to pinnarr the people,
and they are ieconling a fearful

walk across a drawing mow, ever so
right In conversation, she must pot,
seas some other qualities to convince
the great average run of young men
that, she eau be a manager of his
home. Frugality, wowau lustlucts of
love for home, au eye to the best in-
terests of her husband and the care-
ful training of her children-- these are
the traits which wake the good wife

A Profitable Grade Dairy.
Numerous items have been printed of
late sbowiug that dairying. when well
directed, is profitable. It is doubtful!
if auy dairy can wake a better a(•
counting than that of C. S. Morrill at
Portlandville. While the price paid to
Mr. Morris Is low, yet the record Is ex
eeld4-nt. From March 1, 1t1)5, to Martb
1, lately twenty coir. gave 155.517
pounds of milk, au average of 9,27d
per row. The milk sold uu the aver-
age for $1.08 1-3 per hundred pounds,
maklug the, total receipts $2,01&.!141. an
average of $100.5-4 per cow. 'Three
two-year-old heifers were Included lu
the dairy, The 'owes are all grade Mt -

stated that Mr, Morris fed to the dairy
