THE BEAN MARKET Free Access to the United States Means Increased Returns The Canadian farmer finds no mar- lett arhet for his beans In Britain. 1n 1900- 910 the official records show that the total value of Canadian beans export- ed to the United Kingdom, where there U no duty, are nutted only to a paltry 1114. To restrict the Canadian bean producer to the British market would be to paralyse the industry. Under Um recap recity agreement ('anadIan beans have access to the United States markets free of duty.

MICHAIL CLARK he chief representatives a erallam In Alberts PRAM s - POPULAR CEREAL Some interesting and at the same me extremely gratifying letters have recently been seeeived by the menu- tifacturess of Kellogg'. Toasted Porn Flakes. They oome, for the most part, from fathers and mother,' of families, whose children have been benefitted by • steady diet of (hie faeorite pace food. Many of them temily strongly and in a whole -hearted way to the general bodily improvement observ- able its the young oues after they Wive eaten Toasted Corn Flakes regularly for even a short time. Others relate enthusiasticall how viglirous and full of vitality the youngsters become when allowed to eat freely of thie pre- pared cereaL still others breathe e spirit of relict, as if the mother had at last found • food which not only re- sulted in an improvement to the gen- eral health of a bickly child, but was so easily digestible that the ailing little orie z.ould est freely of it with- out any danger of overtaxing a wean 6tomacb. . All of thew letter's seem to be in- spired by an honest desire to testify to the goodness of Kelloggs Toasted Corn Flakes and are imbued with a spirit of thankfulness to the makers of eu h a product. Many of the enthusiastic parents have gone so far as to send photo. graphs of youngsters after a few weeks' daily nee of the cereal and, to judge by the plump bodies, healthy clear complexions and bright eyes of the tote, the die' i6 immensely good for them. One its paiticul•e. photo- graphed with a box of Kellogg's 'Toasted Corn Flakes in his arms, is a perfect picture of roey health and 1,appiness that amply justifies the care- ful parents in their selection of the main item of his- diet. The most pleasing feature to the ntanutacturers is that these letters are entirely unsolicited. They repre- sent the spontaneous expreesion of the gratification and satisfaction of ninny parents at having found in Kel- log. Toasted Corn Flakes a food which nourishes their youngsters and improves their health, mentality and spirit* to a !narked degree. In these circumstances there are many who would naturally feel impelled to write to the manufacturer stating their happy experience. The receipt of an occasional letter of ibis kind, voluntarily written to the makers of a food product. is most like- ly not at all unc..mbon, but that such a large number should find their way into the mail of the Kellogg Toasted (Jnrn Flake Co, is surely a peculiarly forcible indication of the favor with which the public• regard their good a. Ficin this it may be deduced that the actual results from the regular use of this food are strikingly' demonstrated in a very short time and that the makers have produced a cereal that amply substantiates the claims they reale for it A Progressive Movement. Orillia Packet. In an article in :. recent issue of The Toronto World, Mr. Donald O. French draws attention to a new move- ment for des -eloping the older coun- ties of Ontario. by means of county advertising. The growth and prosper- ity of the West, Eo a large extent. has its basis on the advertising that has been dune. This adeertiaiog craws away young men from our own Province, as well as attracting them ', from ab. uad. But Ontario has by no leans reached the limits of her de- velopment, even though, as Mr. French pointe out, the output of On- tario is almost as great as that of all the other Provinces combined. To call attention to t he possibilities of agricul- t tune its this Province will have a good effect both upon our own people, by making them more contented. and upon the outside world. Realie- ing this, several counties have decided to enter Upon advertising campaigns simii t. to those carried on in W eet- er communities, The idea originated in La mbton. The special circumstance is that this county is now largely de- pendent upon the oil industry. which mai play out any time, in ..hick case it is desirable that there should be some other source to fall back upon "A Publicity Association" has been formed in that county. the county council has voted a grunt of $1,000, a booklet has been issued, and a news- paper advertising campaign inaugur- ated. Alren is results are evident. The counties of Prince Edward and Elgin also have taken up the move- ment, and lest'. French has been com- missioned by the Prince Edward county committee to prepare the ad- vertising for that county. POLITICAL POINTERS. The Rochester Herald very neatly says: "Canada end the United States could exchange at least one commod- ity with considerable mutual benefit. That is the politician that preaches that. the other country is able and teddy to put his own out of busi- ness in any field of fair cnmpet'- t ion." Mr. Borden argues that the removal will inee iablyrentailctirerrel moovaloof the duly from manufactured products. fir John A. Macdonald favored the exact measure of hes exchange of natural products which Mr. Borden is now opposing, and it never occurred to Sir John tbat it would inevitably entetil the re -al of the duty from manufnetuned products. But then of clause fair John lived in the be- nlgeht.d age before things wase ••ehanged,and was not much of a statesman according to modern Cun- seteetive staodards, nnyb. w. Tb.
