Government, through its ex- travagance, graft and bad manage- ment, is forced to return to the old three cent postage rate. And the Government would have the people believe that the new rate is a"war tax" although all the war expenditure is being provided for by a war loan from Britain, which will have to be paid later. The only answer the government or- gans can make to the revelations of graft and corruption that have been ex- posed at Ottawa, is that there was also graft and corruption under the Liberal Government from 1896 to 1911. If such a state of affairs existed those who have been in power since 1911 either knew of it, or didn't know of it. If they knew of it they share in the guilt for having failed to expose it. If they didn't know of it, they are guilty of inexcusable ignorance, as they have had nearly four years in which to find it out. The evident cgnclusion is that these counter charges are made for the sole purpose of detracting attention from their own offences. The reply "you're another,'' without some proof will not deceive anybody. The Toronto Telegram (Conservative) says that "An election in the early summer would handicap the Borden Government with the necessity of vindicating the WISDOM AND PATRI- OTISM OFA PREMATURE APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE." The government of Canada, are going to send, free of charge, ballots to the Canadian soldiers in the trenches. but they refuse to send a letter from home freeof charge.

The death roll among Canada's troops at the front now totals over 300, in- cluding some 75 deaths from illness either at Salisbury Plain or since the troops went to France. The list of wounded brings the total casualties up to about 1,000 or about one in every forty of the men who have so far left Canada. The heaviest list of casualties is, of course, from the Princess Patriei- ae, who have been on the firing line for nearly four months. Only three of the officers who left Ottawa with the regi- ment last August have escaped' Ger- man bullets. There has been a suspicion for some time that under the Premiership of Mr. Hearst the Conservative party in On- tario was making a decided bid for the support of the Methodist Church which is well known for its advocacy of temperance reform.' One of the Gov- ernment's moves evidently is very plain in the appointment to the new Central License Commission. ' -Four Methodists out of five are appointees. All the members: Messrs. Flavelle, Dingman, Ayearst and Dane ars Meth- odists, while Mr. Smith of Haileybury is a Roman Catholic. That the Conser- vatives, however, are hardly succeed- ing in their attempt to control the Methodist Church vote is shown by the comment of the Christian Guardian, the organ of the Methodist Church in Canada. Although it comments favor- ably on the actual choice of commission- ers, it is outspoken in its opposition to the general Temperance policy of the Conservative party and of Mr. Hearst. The Guardian openly expresses its dis- appointment with Mr. Hearst. "The fact," it said, "that the Premier was' an active Methodist and was known to be opposed to the traffic in intoxicants, seemed to warrant the expectation that some radial steps would be taken to- wards minimizing the evils of the trf.fYie. Under these circumstances we a: ay 1:e pardoned if we fully expected that something would be done and we n.ey he excused if we voice our bitter dic,apl,ointalent at the Government's in -1 sett ,n, If th- G ,vernrnent hod had to deal with an Oppu'ilion which was rulr,444-:1 ,•, such 1t' jslation there might h.ve bc, n a little mo,e excuse but in Money Urgently Needed I Their lot was never an easy one, even under favorable conditions. They had to struggle along through sheer hard work and hand-to•mouth pinching and scraping. Then came the blow. The husband was stricken down with tuberculosis. The wife was left with four little ones to keep. But she faced the future brr.: ely, buoyed up by the hope that some day her husband will come back. In the meantime, she has to go out washing and cleaning every day, and then force her tired•out body to do her own work at nights. Cases of this kind are numerous. They always call for prompt relief. For unless consumption is quickly treated its terrible effects hurt many beyond the first victim. At this moment money is urgently needed ' so that medicine, nourishment, and treat• meat may be taken to sufferers.

INCREASED TARIFF TAXES NOT FOR WAR ARE general tariff at the new high level and. afterwards reduce the duties On raw Materials to secure still fuktffier partisan advantage. Such being the case, the tariff pro- posals constitute a flagriant violation of between the'es all the truceb w n rti , the l� more flagrant since the present is no time fon earnest consideration of what Canada's tariff should be. In point of tact, the government have tried to slip through, under cover of the flag of truce, more drastic fiscal legislation thanthey would likely have ventured to offer to Parliament if the War had not supervened, and they hope for poli- tical advantage in proportion to t''eir achievement. The first and principle comment upon the tariff proposals in the budget of 1915 is that they constitute a flagrant breach of the truce between the parties which was entered upon at the begin- ning of the War. Under a truce between parties, all matters of habitual party controversy must be put aside and kept outside the scope of Parliament. Else there is no truce. People cannot re -open old sub- jects of contention at such a time, and there is no subject in all our Canadian politics that has given rise to so much difference of opinion between the par- ties as this question of tariff duties. It is well known that Liberals . and Conservatives hold different opinion on the subject, and that there are differ- ences of opinion within the ranks of each party concerning it. If the Con- servative Government had taken up the question of tariff revision at any time before the War began, and had taken their party responsibility for it, nobody` could have complained. That was the right they had gained by their party victory. What they have no moral right to do and what they have done, is, to smuggle in a high tariff measure under the pre- tence that is a measure of war taxa- tion. Mr. A. K. MacLean, M. P., for Hali- fax, in his temperate but searching comments on the budget defined the proper attributes of war taxation. Having regard to the political truce, three of those attributes of the utmost importance are: (1) A war tax should be of such a nature that it could be dropped on the termination of the purpose for which it was imposed. (2) The revenue derived from it should go wholly to the treasury. (3) It should not be susceptible of use to set up new vested interests. It does set up vested interests. Mr. MacLean showed that twelve cents ad- ditional duty on iron ore carries ninety cents protection on a ton of iron and two dollars and twelve cents on a ton of rolls. Here is a vested interest which will interpose strong resistance to res- toring the old scale of duties at the end of the War. And to the extent that the increased protection diminishes import trade, the new duties will not produce new revenue for the Dominion Treasury at all. t is therefore Iself evident that at this part of the budget was not designed to raise war taxes, but to please certain' party friends. This being cleat, it is ` also clear that the government have no intention of dropping the extra seven and a half per cent„ but will keep the WEIGHTS FOR VEGETABLES. It does • not appear to be generally known that the Dominion Government last year, under the title of "An Act to Amend the Inspection and Sale Act", passed a bill fixing standard weights for vegetables, which came into force. on January 1st, 1915. These standard weights per bushel are as follows: Artichokes 56 lbs. Beans ..... ...60 lbs. Beets . ...... .. 50 lbs. Blue grass seed 14 lbs. Carrots •50 lbs. Castor beans 40 lbs. Clover seed.., ....... ... 60 lbs. Hemp seed 44 lbs. Malt ..... ........36 lbs. Onions 50 lbs. Parsnips .... ...... 45 lbs. Potatoes 60 lbs. ,Timothyseed .... 48 lbs. Turnips 50 lbs. Weights per bag are:- - Artichokes .... 84 lbs. Beets ...... 75 lbs. Carrots75 lbs. Onions 75 lbs. Parsnips .... .... ... 65 lbs. Potatoes ............90 lbs. Turnips . 75 lbs. A barrel of potatoes, unless a barrel of specified size, kind or content by measure, is specially agreed on, must contain 165 Dominion Standard pounds of potatoes. Any person selling, or offering for sale by the bag and of the vegetables specified anove, in case such bag does not contain • the, number of standard pounds mentioned, is liable to a penalty not exceeding $25 for a first offence, and for each subsequent offence a penalty not exceeding $50. A number of instances have been brought to my attention where dealers have been 'purchasing carrots and turnips by the bushel from vegetable growers and demanding 60 instead of 50 lbs to the bushel. - J. LOCKIE WILSON. THE TOLERANT MOTHER There are two kinds of tolerant mothers. One type is the mother who allows her children to do almost any thing as long as it does not particularly annoy her, who smilingly overlooks their disregard of other people's rights and feelings, their destruction, even, of other's property, or development of unpleasant mannerisms and traits of character, as long as she is not serious- ly disturbed thereby. There are few such mothers, fortunately. but once in a great while we meet one, and' perhaps suffer from her easy tolerance in allowing her children not only to be a nuisance to others, but to acquire most undesirable characteristics them- selves, simply because she is too easy- going, indifferent or neglectful to cor- rect them when necessary and to teach them the right. PASTURE MANAGEMENT. Pasture management can be summed up almost in a sentence: Feed on the grass, in winter, if possible; feed even- ly all over the sod. The tread of the beast is life to the good grass. Take the stock all off before grass starts in spring and let it come up to be a strong, full bite. Stock then, as much as the. pasture will carry, and pe`rferably with mixed animals - cattle, sheep and horses. Thus it is all grazed down evenly. A better plan may be to divide the pastures and to separate the animals, letting the fatening cattle have the first bite, the sheep following. and after them the horses. Once in the year it is no doubt wise to graze the land quite close in order to subdue the weeds that might spring up. After the close -grazing it should be allowed to come again. Jos, E. Wing. "You must have good cattle and put them in good grass, , There must not be too many cattle. The grass must be coming all the time, and if it is gaining on the cattle all the better. Then you get fine, fn.t, export Steers in the autumn and the extra grass left over goes to the young cattle for fall and early winter pasture," -Gov. Stuart of Virginia, A Year Indoors • "For thirteen months 1 was so bad with chronic indigestion that I could not go tett of doors. Nerves were unstrung the heart bad and smothering feelings came. on till I thought I would choke.' Doctors' treatment failed me, so I be- gan theuse of Dr. Chase's Kidney - Liver Pi11s, which I thank for my pres- ent good health. I am now doing my housework and have a family of ten," . W1.NG►M 20 ,i' ears Ate i'rom the TIMES .of May 3, 1395 There was a good attendance at the meeting held on Friday night last; to form a bicycle club. It was decided to call the club the Wingham. Bicycle Club, and the following ofiicera were elected; Hon. Pres., B. Wilson; Pres., J, A. Morton; Secretary -Treasurer, M. R. Morden; Capt., R. R. ' MacLeod 1st Lieut., W. H Wallace; 2nd Lieut., R. Cornyn; Bugler, Thos, Dodds. Mr. Hugh McEwen, a former well- known resident of the town; died at his home in Dresden, Ont„ on the 22nd of April. Mr, McEwen was a resident of Wingham for many years, and the older residents of the town, who knew him, will regret to hear of his demise. He was the father of Mrs. Anderson, the postmistress of Glenannan. Mr. Frank Dinsley, on Monday, left for Cincinnati. where he has a good situation. Masters George McDonogh and David Angus left on Monday last for Brace - bridge, where they have secured em- ployment. About a dozen of the Oddfellows of town drove over to Brussels, on Sunday last, and joined their brethren of that place in attending divine service, The service was held in the Methodist church, Rev. G. Colibledick, the patsor, preached an eloquent and instructive sermon on the occasion. He took for his text: "Bear ye one another's bur- dens". The Rev. gentleman, though not an Oddfellow, expressed himself as fully in accord with the aims and objects of the • society, and said many good things of the work done by it. Mr. Robt. Hill has purchased the pop business of Mr. G. N. Barton, at Walkerton, and took possession on Tuesday last. Mr. Hill has been in the pop business for twenty-five years, and thoroughly understands it. He is a member of the Town Council, of which body he 'has been a member for six years. He does not contemplate re- signing, but will attend the regular meetings during the year. The TIMES wishes him continued success. Mr. Jas. A. Cline has sold his fine residence on Minnie street to Mr. Geo M. Duffield. at a good figure. Mr. Cline does not contemplate leaving town, though he has sold his residence. Messrs. Jesse Button and Fred Ssyfferd, of town, have purchased from Mr. D. L. Taylor, of London, the patenee, the'right to make, and to sell, the celebrated "Taylor" merchants' exhibiting and displaying racks. Their territory consists of the counties of Huron, Bruce and Grey, and Manitoba, British Columbia and the Northwest Territories. They have also secured the right to manufacture all the racks to be made and sold in tht Dominion. The racks are very desirable articles for merchants and business men who wish to display their goods at the best ad- vantage, and are sold at reasonable prices. The new firm of Button & Sevffert Evill at once put a man. on the road to push sales, and we trust they will be successful in their venture. Mr. J. H. Dulmage was at Brussels on Wednesday. • Mr. W. B. Hutton, of Galt, was calling on friends in town on Wednes- day. Mr. A. E. Bradwin, of the Blyth Standard, was in town on Saturday last; on a visit to his parental home. Mr. Samuel Sutton, while working in Mr. Thos. Bell's furniture factory, last Friday, had his right hand badly in- jured by coming in contact with the machine he was working at. Mr. T. Parker, of town, conductor on the London, Huron and Bruce Division of the `G. T. R., is the inventor and patenee of a spraying pump, which is highly recommended by experts. An effort is being made to have it tested in this vicinity, and Mr. Parker has agreed to furnish the pump and mixture to give the spraying a good test, if a good orchard can be secured for the purpose. On Wednesday morning of last week, the residence of Mr. Ewen McPherson, con. 7, Kinloss, took fire from a spark from the chimney and owing to the high wind which prevailed at the time nothing could be done to save it and it was soon reduced to ashes, Very little was saved. In attempting to save some articles, Mrs. McPherson had her hands badly burned. BORN McCutcheon-In Morris, on April 24th, the wife of Mr. John McCutcheon; twin sons.

A VARIEGATED MASS OF BLOOM IS STILL POSSIBLE THIS SEASON' In the seeding garden as well as where perennials are put to stay for years, thought for color effects doubles the enjoyment. Where there is a decided taste for brilliant hues as the blue del. phiniums, the yellow cone flowers, scarlet lychnis, orange helianthus, or gaillardias, the effect is enhanced by interspersing gypsophila, white shasta daisies, artemisia, or ornamental as- paragus. The feathery green and lace-like white flowers add to the beauty. The columbines are more charming when colors are kept separate. The fancy spurred of cora] and orange tints are handsome in their own foliage. Blues planted with them look common, and the heavy species of the doubles in white and pink are awkward, yet if grown separately they are beautiful. Masses of pink and white foxgloves growing tall with a thick border of finely shaded sweet williams at their feet are admired. A splendid assortment of delphiniums of the bluest blue, with shasta daisies and coriopsis reflect blue, white and yellow in taste. Tall hollyhocks massed in pale colors take kindly to anemone japonica before them and a lowly border of bellis pereh- nis,. the English daisies on the edge of the grass. The dicentra or bleeding heart and the clove pinks come at the same time. If Michaelmas daises are planted among the dicentra they will be inconspicuously green and blossom later when the bleeding hearts are over. Floral changes have come so rapidly that the usual order of tree flowers, Easter shows, blossoming bulbs, bud- ding shrubbery, and violets in the grass has been broken. The spring came in with a burst of sunshine and warm days such as brought every budding plant to the light to do its best. The park gar- deners find the season weeks ahead. rhe pussy willows which came on in March were followed by the elms, maples, ash, box elder, birches and the others that extend until the catalpas and lindens entertain the bees in June. YOU SHOULD BE AFRAID OF A COUGH OR COLD. Coughs and colds do not call for a minute recital of symptoms as they are well known to everyone, but their dangers are not so well known. All the most serious affections of the throat, the lungs and the bronchial tubes are, in the he- kinning, but coughs and colds. Many people when they contract a slight cold do not pay any attention to it, thinking perhaps that it will pass away in a day or two. The upshot is that before they know it, it has settled on their lungs. Too much stress cannot he laid op the fact that on the first sign of a cough or cold it mu"rt be gotten rid of immediately, as failure to do this may cause years of suffering from serious lung trouble. DR. WOOD'S NORWAY PINE SYRUP will cure the cough or cold and prove a preventative from all throat and lune troubles. such as bronchitis, pneumonia and consumption. Mrs. B. E. Druce, Brighton, Oat„ writes: "I am sending you my testi. moray of your Dr. Wood's Norway Ploy Syrup, telling you what it did for my little girl. The doctor had given her up as she was, as we thought, going into a decline with the cough she had. I was told by a lady friend to try "Dr. Wood's" and when she had taken two b0 ttlb she was on her feet again, and four bottles cured her." Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is the best cure for coughs and colds, It iii put up in a yellow wrapper; three pint trees the, trade mark; the price, 25c and 50c; manufactured only by The'r.
