Casual advertisements accepted up to noon Wednesday of eaCh week THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10. 1946 EDITORIAL NOTES Hereafter it is to be expected the Canadian authorities will deal promptly ani severely with all persons making seditious statements. The net debt of Canada at the end of January totalled 027,488,999, an in- crease of $12,344,980 during the month of January, and of $123,110,983 during the twelve months. War expenditure for the month of ..litouary is given in the monthly financial statement as $12.237,- 788, and for the ten months of the cur- rent fiseal year $97,986,686. February 29th it the date decided upon the opening of the next session of the Legislature. The announcement came following a meeting of the Cabinet Thursday afternoon, when it was also decided that the bye-elction in Peet, made necessary in the resignation of Mr. J. H. Fallis, will be held Feb 24th. Nomination will be on Feb. 17th. The loss of the parliatnent buildings is a serious blow, but what would be the`feeling of Canadians if a Zeppelin raid had been made and scores of innocent women and children slaughter - as tvic been the ceee repeatedly in the Oai Country? It is easy to under- stand the British sentiment to contieue the win- until Germany has been crushei. The destruction of the parliament buildings at Ottawa is a great national loss. When the suddenness with which the fire beoke out in different parts of the building is considered it is to be wondered at that there was not a greater loss of life. Whatever the cause of the fire. it should tend to make the people of Canada more watchful. The enemy is probably to be found where be is lest expected. Drastic action should be taken with aliens when election warrants and guards should be doubled it necessary on the munition plants and public institutions likely to become a prey of malicious enemy sympathizers. MR. ROWELL AND THE FARM. -- Points in the Speech of the Leader of the Opposition before the Ontario Association of Fairs and Exhibitions -- -- "We must raise the requird number of recruits, but we must also so organize our system that the agricultural pro- duction of the country will be maintain- ed." " We should have in Ontario something between Public Schools and the 0.A.C. at Guelph; something, for example, like tne Agricultural Schools in Alberta, to bring agricultural education closer to the farm." "There is ro occupation more.noble or independent than that of the farmer " "There is need for more cooperation in the raising and marketing of farm produce." "It is a matter of real public interest when we find some 6000 farmers in the province taking advantage of the Field Crop Competition." "The cities have been over -built at the expense of rural communities." MAY DEPEND UPON FARMERS The Empire may depend upon far- mers of Canada doing their full duty in this great war if the situntion is fully and frankly put befoi them," declared Dr. C. C. James, conenissioner of agri- culture, speaking to the membees of the Caradian Ayisnire Breeders' Association at a banquet in Toronto last week. ".Lumping all the farm products together, and deducting the food fed to stock," declared Dr. James, "we estimate that int, 1915 the farms, orchards and gardens of Canada gave a net product of over a billion dollars. It is a safe estimate to put the dairy output of Canada for 1915 at $150,000,- 000, he said. Charles Strony, arrested at Winder Ion suspicion Of possible complicity in ; the fire at the Parliament Buildings at Ottawa, has been released. 'WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS The nervous system is the alartn system ' of the human body.

The trouble with the old-fashioned methods Was that when the treatment was stopped the trouble returned in an aggravated form - The modern method of curing indiges- tion and other stomach troubles is to tone up the stomach to do nature's work. Every step toward recovery is a step gained, not to be lost again. The re- covery of the appetite, the disappear- ance of pain, the absence of gas, —are all steps on the road to health that those who have tried the tonic treat- ment remember distinctly. Dr. VIT - Hams' Pink Pills are a blood-bqj,kfer, onic medicine, every consti nt of which is helpful in building ythe dig- estive organs, and is there e the very best remedy for chronic es of stom- ach trouble. The san of eases like the following pro successful this treatment is; -s Amy Brewing, Cornith Ont ys:—' 1 have found such great benefit from Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that I would be ungrateful if I did not publicly say a good word in their favor. I was badly run down and my stomach was in a very bad con- dition. All food distressed me, and left me disinclined to eat. I suffered from nausea and diztziness and frequent sick headaches, and this was thrther aggra- vated by pains in the back and sides. I was in this condition for several years, and although I had got medicine from several doctors it did not help me. Then I heard of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and began taking them. I am glad to say they soon helped me, and now I am as well as ever; can eat all kinds of food, with relish, and have not an ache or pain." You can get these Pills through any denier in medicine or by mail, post paid at eel cents a box or six boxes for $2 .50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. Brockville, Ont. In the Commons Mr. Fred F. Pardee made an earnest and impressive speech, cheered by both sides, pointing out the respective duties of the Government and the Opposition in rising above partizanship to united national service.
