THE NEWSPAPERS GOING UP.
Newsprint parer has more than
trebled in price in four years.
The New York Sun and the New
York Herald have amalgamated.
In Ohio and Michigan drastic cuts
have been made in the size of the
newspapers, and advertising and cir-
culation rates have been increased.
In New Jersey all advertising rates
are advanced 25 to 30 per cent., with
higher rates in prospect. The three
Birmingham dailies have gone to $9
and $10 a year. Publishers are filled
with anxiety for the future. The
most rigid conservation, the elimina-
tion of all unnecessary features and
increased advertising and circulation
rates are regarded as the only means
of meeting existing conditions. The
problem is not one of the pulishers'
making, but they must bear its re-
sult and work along the best lines
available to solve it,

THE- DAIRY COW
By Walt Mason
The dairy cow's a thing of charm;
she lifts the mortgage from . the
farm, and makes the farmers life
more sweet, and" `sets him clown on
easy street. Where'er the dairy cow
is queen, a country prosperous is
seen, and dairymen, in joyful ranks,
are packing bullion to the banks.
Why plug along the old sad way,
producing nutmegs, corn and hay,
and putting up a bankrupt wail if
one year's crop should chance to
fail? There is a better method now,
—the method of the dairy cow; this
critter always earns her keep, and
piles up riches while you sleep, and
pays the taxes and the rents; and
here in Canada, gents, we have the
climate and the feed, and all condi-
tions dairies need. So let us boost
the dairy cow, which beats the old
breech -loading plow; the Holstein
and the Jersey, too, as smooth as any
cow in view. Let's talk up dairies, '
milk and cream, the safest money-
making scheme.
THE MONTHLY COMMERCIAL
V SITTER ISSUED BY THE CANA-
DIAN 13ANK O'F COMMERCE
SAYS: '
"Reviews of business conditions
by recognized authorities - indicate
unanimity of opinion as to the nec-
essity of a greater volume of pro-
duction from our own raw material
in order that" the prosperity which
we are enjoying to -day may con-
tinue. It is also evident from these
reviews that there is abundant work
for all available hands and that any
complaints of lack- of work come
from those who find difficulty in
getting employment of the kind that
suits them. More• men are now a-
vailable for work in the forests and
the mines, but demand for factory
help remains insistent. It would
thus appear that the new year
opens auspiciously. The people as a
whole, despite the extrvagant` pur-
chasing of luxuries, are increasing
their savings. Deposits in the banks,
the number of new insurance poli-
cies issued, purchases of securities,
payments of taxes and debts gener-
ally, all show a marked -increase.
Capital is still being expended in
adding to the productive machinery
which was lifted to a higher stand-
ard of efficiency under the inspira-
tion of war effort Mining prospects
are being more intelligently exploi-
ted and agriculture and animalhus-
bandry are receiving keener atten-
tion than heretofore. All this indi-
cates that production will be more
than maintained unless political or
social friction intervenes.
A by-law will be submitted to the
rate -payers of the Township of Bid-
dulph, , the purpose of which will be
to raise a sum of money by deben-
ture to erect in the village .of Gran-
ton or in close proximity to it, a
Community Hall.
Among the recent deaths in St.
Marys are: John O'Connor, one of
it's old-time .>eitizens; aged 73, .and
John Routley, one of it's oldest cit-
izens, aged 84. Another death was
that of Elizabeth Cooper, widow of.
the late John Chappell, aged 73.

JAS T. KEYS,
ARE YOU FULLY INSURED?
There,is such force in the follow-
ing from the Port Rowan News: The
increase in the cost of building, the
cost of furniture and of merchandise
of every kind has given the fire in-
surance business quite . a lift. Men
everywhere are asking themselves,
"Could I rebuild if my house were
destroyed by fire?" All of them want
more insurance. It would cost at
least $7,500 a room to build a
school houses or $45,00'0 to re -build
in Port Rowan, should the present
school buildings be destroyed. This
would be nearly $500 for every man,
woman an(t child in the place. The
war debt of England is just twice as
much per capita, and the war debt
of Canada about half as much."This
Will give some idea of the serious-
tress of the situation. The old build-
ing should be insured, not for tyre -
thirds of it's original, but for two-
thirds of it's presentvalue,
