The Hon. Adam Beck Details the Uses
Power ' Can Be Put . To.
'A despatch from, Guelph says
A cream separator was '. operated
twice a day .by Hydro-electric:Iv-
er•in the dairy section at the Oe -
tarso Provincial Winter Fair, and
attracted a ;rest deal of attention.
The machine is so simple that it
can be attached to any electric light
fixture, There are also pictures
on show demonstrating the uses to
whichelectricity can be put on ttae
farm, The pictures were gathered
by Hold, Adam Beck during his
travels in Europe,
The uses to which electricity cra.a
be adapted ell the farm were .ex-
plained to over athousand interes-
ted listeners from rural parts at a
public tweeting in the City liaLi, Gy
kion. Adam Beck,
Professes G> O. emelt-inn, .t resi-
cleat of the 0. A, 0,, presented the
ease of his college 'before the far-
mers, urging them to avail tliehnl-
selv:es of it, and -to spread its:in-
tat Earin at-Ottava, who also gave
some, instances to show., how many
farmers make little out of ;their
'beef cattle,. It cost the farmers
from six to ten cents, live weight,
to produce them, This cost in -
eludes feeding, care, stabling, and
all other items of expense. For
this the farmers receive from 'foxir
to eight cants a pound from the
butchers, leaving a balance on the
wrong ,side. At same time the
consumer pays frQii six to twenty-
five cents a pound for the Same
meat. The lecturer said be could
not account for the difference in
price, but believed the butchers
might. Nevertheless, farmers could
make a good profit from, beef, in
spite of the differences, by care and
economical feeding,

told of what be had seen of the op-

A STRIKING DI1M 1'ERENreE,
The striking difference in, the
price reeoived by the farmer for his
beef and those paid by the consum-
er was pointed out in an address

to the amount of 5753.983, Now in the
united States where, owing to the de.
tecta of the banking system, it is danger•
ous to owe the banks much, it is a rule
that to put a eotepany in good. shape its
current Ascots should amount to at least

ing to pay off its advances' when they
matured, if that were at an:inconvenient
time. There is, as a result, no danger of
inability to renew maturing notes such
as" occurred in the United States,in- 1907,
and which caused most of the industrial
failures of that wear there, So in Can-
ada, unless bank advances form an in
considerable part of the total liabili-
ties, the proportion between current as-
sets and current liabilities need not bo

better. Where bank loans are secured
by such stable commodities as'• grain,

without misgiving. In the above instance
the proportion is one and three -quartets
