MARCH 11, 11415 EDITORIAL NOTES. As The Farmer's Advocate says, "this season is to witness the greatest campaign ever conducted upon the soil of Canada." Why should not. Canada allow the free impor:ntion of goods produced in Great Brit sin a There are no me- tiers duties on Canadian goods enter- ing Britain. Sir Hedworth succeeds Sir John Jellicoe as Admiral of the Brit- ish fleet. Wonder whether you pro- nounce that name "Stew," 8a in cat, or "moo," as in row ? Late despatches from Europe are to the effect that Germany is. pre- pared to talk about peace terms. There is nothing to indickte, however, that the Allies are inclined to listen. A speaker in the Legislature the day her t pri nttd out that while tbe population of Ontario in ten years had increased about sixteen per cent. the cost of civil government had in- creased 120 per rent.

Some of the fellows holding down berths at Ottawa and Toronto would be Netter employed in helping to waive the fatm labor problem— _— According to figures ojjust received from the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa, the averege profit per acre of fall wheat in Ontario in 1013 was 1117.71 ; of spring wheat, $5.75. As mentioned in this ctilurbtabeet week, wheat in Albertagiv,. the grower an average profit of.,. my $'l.(IU per acre in 8askatshewan, $1.72; in Manitohsj 2./I3, according to Government ata- Unties. Tbia looks like substantial proof of the contention that farming is a better proposition it' Ontario than is the West. . From different quartets come star,ee of political favoritism in the selection of oMcets for the Canadian forces now in training. We should dislike very much to believe that any Canadian is debarred on account of his politics from serving his country in a capacity for wbh'h be is qualified ; eothing could be further from the spirit. which should control in military affairs, es- pecially at a time like this.
