WHAT CLEANLINESS WILL DO
There were 1,732 deaths out of 7,700
eases of infantile paralysis in NewiYork
between. July 4 and August 26. Of
those who survived more than 1,500
will be crippled for the remainder of
life. This was an awful toll from
infantile paralysis and yet although
there was also a heavy more ality
during the record-breaking heat wave,
the deaths recorded among children
this year in New York are fewer than
for years past. The reasons given by
the health department of the city are
these:
Because mothers have watched over
their babies with greater care.
Because homes have been kept
cleaner.
Because flies have been swatted,.
starved and poisoned.
Because baby's milk has been kept
clean and cold.
Because the Doctor is called in
time.
Because all the streets in the con-
gested districts have been flushed
Highest daily.•
Here is an impressive lesson on the
importance of civic and personal clean-
liness, unremitting warfare on , the
deadly fly and of rigid enforcements of
measures for the protection of the
purity of milk, which it would be well
for every community on the continent
to take heed to. 14ortunately we have
learned some of them in Stratford, but
personal cleanliness is just as necessary
as civic cleanliness for the prevention
of disease.—Stratford Beacon.

CROPS IN CANADA
In a bulletin issued Monday the Census
and Statistics Office publishes the first
or prelininary estimate of the yield of
the wheat crop. After a reference to
the reduced yield in the western
Provinces, the bulletin says:
In Ontario and Quebec grain yields
have been greatly reduced by drought
in August; but in the Maritime
Provinces and in British Columbia the
condition of the grain crops hoc con-
tinued to be quite favorable.
It is estimated from the reports of
correspondents that, of the areas sown
about 13.7 per cent. of spring wheat,
eight per cent. of oats, five per cent. of
barley and 1.8 per cent. of flax will tail
to produce any crop of grain. These
percentages represent deductions from
the areas sown of 1,432,300 acres of
spring wheat, 849,000 acres of oats and
69,100 acres of barley, It is conse-
quently estimated that the total yield
of wheat this year will be 168,811,000
bushels from a harvested area of 10,-
085,300 as compared with 376,803,600
bushels from 12,986,400 acres last year,
and 161,280,000 bushels from '10,293,900
acres in 1914. The average yield per
acre is 16% bushels, as compared with
twenty-nine bushels last year, and 15.67
bushels in 1914.

THE SETTLER AND THE SPECU-
LATOR.
The failure of the Ontario Govern-
ment to adequately deal with the
burning questions arising in the North
Country as between the bona fide
settler and the land speculator, is
causing an upheave' among the hardy
sons of the North, which spells defeat
for the government nominees in these
northern districts when the voters are
next called to the polls. Although the
goyernment takes care to feed the rest
of the province with the pap of its own
self satisfaction, the people really con-
cerned who are sweating and toiling
for the benefit of land -hogs, have at
last become exasperated and are de-
manding the clearing out of these ex-
ploiters, and that more consideration be
given by the government to those who
are honestly clearing and cultivating
their holdings.
An article by the staff correspondent
of the Toronto Globe, dated Englehart,
August 25th, after quoting specific in-
stances of distress and dissatisfaction,
concluded with the following striking
paragraph: --
"W hat is called for in New Ontario
in connection with land settlement is
the most liberal treatment of the man
who is really trying to make a home
for himself—not pauperizing liberality
but stimulating liberality, and no
quarter for the speculative holder. The
man who seeks to profit in idlenesss
from the labor of others is a public
enemy, and should be treated as such.
The man is doubly a public enemy who
holds vacant land in a new country for
the purpose of enriching himself by the
increased values accruing as a result of
improvements made by real settlers on
adjoining lots. No men should be.
allowed to secure a patent in future
until he has made it quite clear that he
means to stay with the land for which
the deed is given. Where patents have
been granted for lands that are neither
occupied nor really improved the
barnacle owner should be pried loose
with the handspike of taxation
rigorously applied."
This is the policy of the settler, not
of a city -bred politician; and if the
members of the Ontario Cabinet do not
sit up and take notice and undertake
some action along the lines suggested,
calamitous results from the point of
view of office will be visited upon them
by a resentful electorate at the earliest
opportunity. The 'concentration of
settlement, an equitable distribution of
roads, loans to assist clearing, provision
for school sites and fire protection, are
crying needs in the North Country.
The members of the Ontario Govern-
ment have had the situation brought
home to them; but their minds are con-
centrated on the best mean, of obtain-
ing votes rather than on methods of
ameliorating conditions in the North.
