S. iiil,l,IOTT, PUDLISIIER AND PeoriarnR THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20. 1913 EDITORIAL NOTES The Congressional committee invest- igating the Money Trust in the United States found that by a system of inter- locking directorates 180 men controlled $25,325,000,000 of the nation's wealth. In Canada the number of money kings is much smaller and their power is much smaller and their power is relatively much more absolute. The banks, the railways and the spoon-fed manufactur- ers constitute the real governing body of this country. Their chief work con- sists in handing themselves fresh favors privileges and bounties under cover of our democratic institutions, with a set of timid or greed binded politicians and a party binded press making no protest against the ceaseless robbing of the common people. Grain Growers' Guide. Men without training, men without any special trade, flock to the cities and put up with almost unspeakable hardships in order to stay there. They would be much better off in the country villages, where there would be some chance of getting a job on a farm. But the lure of the city seems irresistible. These people with their families would rather put up with a ten by twelve room in a city than live in reasonable comfort in the country. One wonders whether the lavishness with which charity is dispensed in the big cities has anything to do with it. No one likes to see his fellowman suffer from hunger or want, and yet, when that hunger and want is brought on by the man's own action, is it the right thing to be charitable? The best kind of charity for the organizations in the cities which care for the poor would be to constitute themselves a sort of employment bureau for finding work for the fit and able on farms. The work is there for them, if they will go out and get it. —The Canadian Farm. The Ottawa Citizen on Friday had a column editorial in which it returns to the attack on Sir James Whitney; this time in regard to his tax reform speech in the Legislature recently. It says in part:—"If anything further had been required to show the utter folly of the attitude of Sir James Whitney on the question of the tax reform, it was sup- plied by his speech. There needs to be no greater proof of the necessity of a change in provicial leadership than the words of the leader himself. They re- veal either an ignorance of plain facts or an indifference to real issues. "If the amazing statement of Sir James re- presents the sum total of his knowledge on these great questions, he is clearly incapable of leading a great party. If, on the other hand, his use of such state- ments isa blind to cover loyalty to other interests than those of the tax -reform - asking public, the deduction is even clearer. In either case, it is such in- stances as this that are making the name of Sir James a byword and jest, a synonym for that antiquated kind of conservatism that sought to do no harm by doing nothing at all." Mrs, Eisenhauer of Scarsdale, N. S., gave birth to quadruplets, and all are doing well. Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Willey,an English couple en route to New York to take a ship for Southampton,were turned back at Morristown because they had resided in Canada only nine months. AGED PEOPLE cannot properly masticate solid foods and digestion is often upset—they do not receive the needed nourishment to make strength and preserve health, but if aged people everywhere could only realize the .tr.ngth.sus• taming nourishment in Scott's Emulsion they would take it after every meal. It possesses the nourishing ele- ments of cod liver oil, the vital powers of the hypopliosphites of Ihue and sada and the curative qualitiesof glycerine, All so perfectly combined that nature immediately appropriates them to create atrength--nourish the organs and build the body. It relieves rheuma- tism and ailments due to declining years. It adds to the span of life.

Every mother who calls to mind her own girlhood knows how urgently her daughter is likely to need help and strength during the years between school days and womanhood. It is then that growing girls droop and become fragile, bloodless and nervous. Nature is calling for more nourishment than the blood can supply and signs of dis- tress are plainly evident in dull eyes, pallid cheeks, aching backs, a languid step, fits of depression, headaches and a dislike for food. These signs mean anaemia—that is bloodlessness. The watchful mother takes prompt steps to give her girl the new, rich blood her system is thirsting for by giv- ingDr. Williams' Pink Pills, which make new blood and transform unhappy anaemic girls into robust, bright-eyed young women. No other medicine has ever succeeded like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, because no other medicine can make that new, rich blood which brings health and vitality to weak, bloodless systems. Miss Mamie Krouse, Cope - town, Ont., says: "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been a blessing to me. I had been a sufferer for almost two years from anaemia, and seemed, no matter what I tried, to be growing worse. I was very pale and seemed bloodless. suffered from frequent headaches, the least exertion would leave me complete- ly tired out, and I was very much dis- couraged and fretful. At last I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and got a half dozen boxes, and by the time they were used I was feeling much better. A few more boxes fully restor- ed my health and I have since been well and strong and able once more to enjoy life." These pills are sold by all medicine dealers or will be sent by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 by addressing The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co , Brockville, Ont. The Experimental Farms Report. The report of the Experimental Farms for the year ending March 31st, 1012, is out. Of all the many publications is- sued from time to time by the Depart- ment of Agriculture at Ottawa this annual report is by far the most com- prehensive, as it deals with practically every phase of Canadian agricultural activity ranging from the cultivation of fruits and ornamental plants to the growing and preserving of corn for stock food; from the hatching and rearing of fowls to the rearing and feeding of cattle, sheep and swine; from the man- agement of bees to the protection of crops from insects and disease, and so on throughout the whole range of farm- ing. The first 230 pages are devoted to the reports of the officials whose head- quarters are at the Central Farm at Ottawa, the remaining 216 pages deal- ing with experiments and investigation being carried on at the ten Branch Farms and Stations distributed over the different provinces. As Acting Dominion Agriculturist, Mr. Grisdale deals with the work car- ried en at the Central Farm with live stock and crop rotations for various kinds of farming. He shows that the dairy herd consisting of Ayrshires, Guernseys, Canadians, and grades of these produced butter at cost ranging from 11.4 cts. to 24.4 cents per lb., and that the cows gave profits of from $13.80 to $98.00 during the milking period. His Royal Highness the Duke of Con- naught visited the Six Nations Indians at Obsweken and received a civic ad- dress from Brantford. Dr. Edward Pardee Bucke of London, prominent in sport, theatrical and soc- ial matters as well as in his profession, succumbed to pneumonia in his thirty- eighth year. LIVE STOCK MAIteezra Toronto, Feb'y 17.—Livestock busi- ness at the Western Cattle Market this morning was very quiet, with only light receipts in the yards. Only about 100 head of cattle, mostly of poor quality, were offered, and these were selling slowly at steady prices., A few hogs were offered for sale and were drawing $8.80 f.o.b., and $8.90 fed and watered, a little easier than last week The receipts at the yards were 5 cars containing 105 head of cattle, 21 hogs and 1 calf.

(London Advertiser.) In Hon. Robert Rogers' land raffle, Mr. Donaldson, of Prince Albert, has drawn a fine prize. Think of getting for some half-breed scrip 73 acres as- sessed by the city of Prince Albert at $73,000. It is a princely affair. Down east here we pay good coin for annexes and subdivisions highly adver- tised by western dealers, and later we sometimes find that our purchases are miles from human habitation. We pay suburban prices for wheat land or worse. To think of getting urban land in bulk for almost nothing, when we pas, three, four and five hundred dol- lars for a 25 -foot lot—that way mad- ness lies. Count the lots in 73 acres! Like Henry the Eighth of ofd, our de- partment of the interior disqenses lands to those who know the Open Sesame. It drops benefits, as it were, accidently like the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath. The thing is to know just how to get in the way of its bounty, how to merit its favors. There's the rub. The vast mass of easterners are doom- ed to consume themselves in envy of such lucky fellows as the Donaldsons. It makes the ordinary investor green with envy. He feels starved by com- parision. The gods single out a few, while the rest of us keep to the noise- ess and sequestered vale. Three men lost their lives in a fire which destroyed the Matabanick Hotel at Elk Lake early Saturday morning. Four men and one woman were arrest- ed in Montreal on a charge of operating a white slave trust, their victims being Jewish girls duped by a mock marriage ceremony.
