ISTABLihrifL : 187'4 Tilt WINclitioi TINE&, U !3 rtrLtO F1', PUBLISHER AND Pttorti;•rOR THURSDAY, APRIL 10, 1913 EDITORIAL NOTES The statement of revenue and expend- iture of the Dominion for the fiscal year just closed, as by returns furnished to the Department of Finance to the night of March 31st, has been issued. It shows that for the fiscal year ended on that date th revenue totalled $165,528,- 137, as compared with $132,745,380 for the fiscal year ended March 31st, 1912, an increase of $32,782,751. The expenditure on consolidated funds account for the fiscal year was $95,625, 013, as against $83,561),593 for the pro- ceeding year, an increase of $12,064 ,420 On capital account there was a decrease of $151,529, namely, from $28,909,985 to $28,758,156. "The interest that we take in a con- tribution spent by another is not the in- terest that I desire for Canada. 'want to see something grafted on the soil of Canada's nationhood which takes root and develops until it incites the spirit of defence in this country, and leads to a participation in the defence, leads to that quickened interest in it,its glories, its duties and its acomplished work, which is, after all, the one great thing that compensates a people for great ex- penditures, either on land or sea, in the way of defence and of the maintainance of the rights of the country." Hon. Geo. E. Foster in House of Commons, March 29th, 1909. Of special interest to people in the country districts is Mr. J. -C'. Elliott's Bill to assist in the breeding of black foxes. Mr. Elliott the Liberal Member for West Middlesex is one of the lead- ing men in the House and is always alive to the interests of the Province. His present. Bill which received its se- cond reading and will come up again in committee, allows fox -breeders to catch breeding stock at any time of the year and not only in the open season as at present. The breeding of black foxes is being taken up enthusiastically in var- ious parts of Ontario, and Mr. Elliott's Bill, if it becomes a law, will prove a real encouragement. Ladies must have black fox for their furs, and they are willing to pay anything for them. There must be lots of money in the business. Hon. W. J. Hanna's chief proposed amendments to the Marriage Act are: - 1. If neither of the applicants for a marriage license have lived in the town or district during the preceding 15 days the license will not be issued until an advertisment on the application has ap- peared in a local publication for three successive weeks. Special exceptions will be dealt with by the Registrar General. 2. If any issuer of licenses, or any Minister or Clergyman, knowing or be- lieving that either of the parties to the intended marriage is an idiot, insane or under the influence of liquor, shall nev- ertheless issue the license, he shall in- cur a penalty not exceeding $500, and shall be liable to a prison term not ex- ceeding twelve months. 3. If any deposed Minister thereaf- ter undertakes to solemnize any marri- age he shall incur a penalty of $500 and in addition be liable to a prison term not exceeding a year. Dr. Logan, the new Medical Officer of Health at Niagara Falls, Ont., hopes to rid the city of smallpox within four- teen days. MONTHLY EXAMINATIONS.

A. matter of considerable importance to farmers, especially those of Ontario, was brought up by Mr. McCoig, Liberal, M.P. for West Kent when he complain- ed of the useless duty on ditching mach- inery. Mr. McCoig said the farmers needed these machines because, they could not get sufficient men to put in necessary tile drains. But none of these machines were made in Canada, and yet they were subject to a duty of 274 per Cent, so that on a $2,000 Machine over $500 duty had to be paid.

Prices generally ruled steady and strong, with but little change from last week's quotations. The receipts at the yards were 4 cars, containing 29 head of cattle, 200 sheep and lambs, 57 hogs and 82 calves.
