PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE NEWS
ZIG-ZAG OR STRAIGHT
Hon. Mr. Hearst, in the reply to the
demand of the Dominion Alliance Dep-
utation for the total prohibition of the
sale of liquor -"The zig-zag path is
often the best."
Mr. N. W. Rowell, at the Massey
Hall meeting of the Dominion Alliance
convention -"This is no time for zig-
zagging in the temperance move-
ment.
It is but natural that the delegates
to the Dominion Alliance, who, in an
enormous deputation, interviewed Prem-
ier Hearst and his Government at the
Parliament Buildings on Friday, March
5th, should feel disappointed with the
Government's attitude. The Prime
Minister, of course, was non-cormit-
tal and didnot say definitely what he
would do or what he would not do but
the tenor of his remarks 'revealed the
fact that he was not likely to grant
what the deputation asked for, which
was the complete prohibition of the
sale of liquor in Ontario, if not for all
time, for the very least during the
course of the present war.
"The zig-zag path is often the best"
was one of the disappointing remarks
made by Mr. Hearst. showing an ad-
mitted lack of directness in his desire
to deal with the request of the deputa-
tion. As if this remark was not enough
the Prime Minister emphasized it stiil
furthur by saying that a "frontal at-
tack is not always best."
Hon. Mr. Hanna was equally disap-
pointing to the temperance people. The
furthest he would go was to say that
they would not find this Government
behind the previous Government in its
dealings with the liquor traffic. What
the temperance people asked for, of
course, was a policy much in advance
of that given by the Government of
Sir James Whitney on this particular
point.
Mr. F. S. Spence, in speaking in sup-
port of the* deputation's views, told
the Premier that he held office today
thanks to the votes of a large number
of Conservatives who believed that if
the Conservative party were returned
it would change its policy on the tem-
perance question and advance rather
than stand still. "Now is Mr. Hearst's
opportunity," said Mr. Spence. ' to let
the temperance -Conservatives sea if
they were right or not."
Ex- Mayor Lees of Hamilton, in sup-
porting the demand for total prohibi-
tion of the sale of liquor in the Province
said that he and his family were Con-
servatives and always voted Conserva-
tive when they had a chance but did
not do so when they felt the Govern-
ment was opposed to advanced temper-
ance measures.

mill on the dollar."
The three items of expenditure es-
pecially objected to by Mr. Ham were
(1) The cost of Civil Government, (2)
The cost of the Prison Farm at Guelph
especially the cow stables, and (3) The
cost of the Government House.
The population of Ontario in the last
ten years has increased about 15.58 per
cent; the cost of Civil Government had
increased 120 per cent. Even if the
Government had been justified in all in-
crease of 50 per cent there is still a
difference between that and the actual
1211 per cent increase on this one item
alone of,$200,000 a year or a total for
the ten years of $2,000,000 -wasted.
At the prison farm there has been a
capital expenditure of $16,000 for every
five prisoners lodged there. "Is it
quite fair that this amount should be
spent on prisoners when very few
farmers or working men in the Province
have farms or horses .worth anything
like $16,000 for themselves and their
families," asked Mr. Ham, who also
objected to the fact that at the new
cow shed at the prison farm the cost
per stall for each cow was $360„ where-
as Mr. Ham said good accomodation
could have been provided for $100 ;a
cow at the very most.
In regard to Government House, Mr.
Ham pointed out that even on a basis
of the cost of $1,000,000, which would
probably be exceeded before the build-
ing was completed, this would have pro-
vided 200 farms at $5000 a -piece.
"All this extravagance," concluded
Mr. Ham, "is at the very time when
many of our people are forced to live
only on bread and potatoes.
BL1JJ41 ALE,
The closing session of the Mock
Parliament was a great improvement
on its predecessors in smoothness of
precedure, showing the benefits of the
Parliamentary training received by the
members. The debate on the bill to
tax bachelors on a sliding scale was re-
sumed by R. Black for the Opposition.
The speaker quoted freely from St.
Paul in defense of bachelors while
Leader Shaw refuted a statement of a
Government member that bachelors
suffered in health from eating store
bread with too much alum in it, by
pointing to his own personal appearance
which he claimed had been altogether
built up by the use of baker's bread.
Miss Lillian McCall in one of the most
forceful speeches of the debate .warmly
defended bachelors and cited many
illustrious examples of eminent men
who were addicted to this so-called
vice. The Minister of Education, A.
L. Posliff, spoke in defense of the Bill
and the Minister of Forests and Mines
made another fine oration combining
poetry, sentiment and statistics in
support of early marriages. Before the
vote was taken the Opposition insisted
on receiving answers to several
questions they had asked the previous
night. In reply to Miss Scott asking if
extra police protection was to be pro-
vided in Bluevale on Sunday nights as
there were so many girls on the streets
after church, it was no longer safe for
a young man to be out without an es-
cort, the Attorney -General, Arch.
Messer said that there was no need of
running the country into the extra
expense of enlarging the police force;
if the young men would go straight
home from church the way he did they
would never be .rolested. The Minister
of Agriculture drew attention to the
progressive policy of his department
which would be more fully announced
in a series of public meetings, the first
to be held in Bluevale on the following
Wednesday night, when the subjects of
of District Agricultural Representa-
tives, agricultural education to the
public schools, etc. would be diseussed
by expert speakers. At the close of
the debate a cablegram was brought in
by a messenger for the Premier, which
he read to the house, announcing that
the Canadian troops, many from Huron
County, were covering themselves with
glory with the aid of shirts and socks
from the women of Bluevale. The
message drew from the Prime Minister
a stirring patriotic address in which he
was ably seconded by the Leader of the
Opposition and the House joined in

Pal 1Wrox-
eter. Ont., says: `•Pur in I' the my life
was made miserable thma combined
attack of rheutnatisnl a' i sciatica. The
rheumatism seer ed t settle itl all my
joints and the •ci ca pains were so
great that I •. d scarcely hobble
about. I tun a armor, and so you can
understand that in my condition 1 was
unable to do my ordinary work.
Neither doctors nor various remedies I
took did me any good. Finally I was
induced to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
and for thii I have much to be thankful
for, as after taking a few boxes the
pains began . to disappear, and by the
time I had taken nine boxes every
twinge of both the rheumatism and .the
sciatica had disappeared and I was able
to go to work again as usual, and have
not lost a day through illness since. I
am thoroughly grateful for what Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills have done for me
and hope my experience will benefit
once otner sufferer."
It is the curing of just such cases as
these that has given,Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills their world-wide popularity. You
can get the Pills from any medicine
dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or
six boxes for $3.50 from The Dr. Wil-

cheers and applause. The Parliament
was formally prorogued by Lieutenant -
Governor Thompson, who read with
impressive effect his review of the
legislation passed during the session
and when he had been escorted from
the chamber, the standing members
heartily united in singing the National
Anthem. After the close of the Parlia-
ment a fine program was given when
the Literary Society had the unusual
pleasure of hearing twc) talented musi-
cians. who have been visiting in this
district, Mrs. Geo. Thompson of Brussels
and Miss Hildred McCall, of Toronto.
Mrs. Thompson played several piano
numbers which were received with
great applause. Miss McCall, who is a
pupil of Dr. Edward Broome, is a sing-
er whose equal has seldom been heard
in Bluevale and gave "Caller Herrin' "
Pbilosophy" and several other songs in
a way that delighted her hearers. The
appreciation of the audience for the
entertainment so graciously given was
voiced by A. MacEwen and J. W.
King at the close of the program.
Next Wednesday night Rev. Crawford
Tate will give an address on. "Historic
Land -works of the Niagara Peninsula."
Another forward step in the progress
of the Bluevale school is to be launched
next Friday afternoon, March 12, when
the parents; friends, ratepayers, and
all others interested are requested to
attend a meeting in the school house
from three to four o'clock, in order to
discuss the new subjects of Agriculture
and home gardening, which are to be
introduced into the work of the school
this spring. The ,object of this
new movement in the rural schools is
not to make practical farmers of the'
school children, but is an effort to change
the point of view in rural education by
placing more importance on the value
of country life and giving the school a
more direct influence than it has ever
had in the:pltst in adding to the progress,
happiness and satisfaztion of the district
by which it is supported. 'Phe methods
by which the work will be introduced in
the local school will be fully explained
at the meeting on Friday afternoon and
it is especially important that the
fathers and mothers of the school
children should attend as their, co-
operation is ne^essary in carrying out
the proposed plan.
CEREAL CROPS ON THE EX-
PERIMENTAL FARMS
Cereal production has occupied an
important position in the work of the
Experimental Farms since their incep-
tion some twenty-eight years ago. By
selection, the best varieties of grains
for Canadian conditions have been
brought to light and by breeding many
important sorts have been produded.
Pioneer wheat, a new early sort poss-
essing many merits gives promise of
filling and important place in northern
sections. The tt sults in 1014 with this
and other sorts of wheat, as well as
oats and parley at the Central Farm
and sixteen Branch Farms and Stations
and two sub -Stations are presented in
Bulletin No. 81 of the Experimental
Farms Series. This seasonable pamph
let is available at the Publications
Branch, Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa.
