per cent. greater than their total ex- I
penditure.
During the first half of the present i
year, the ordinary expenditures on
Public Works were greater than during i
the whole of the last year of Liberal
administration, while the expenditures
on Capital Accounts during the same '.
six months exceeded those of the whole!
of the last Liberal year by more than I
two million dollars.
The needs of the Dominion were amply
satisfied in 1911. These needs cannot
have multiplied more than twice over in
two years, It is clear that the Public
Works department under Mr. Rogers is'.
displaying even greater extravagance
than Col. Sam Hughes and his Militia
Department. Such lavish expenditure
cannot he in the interests of the people.
The only other assumption is that it is
intended to entrench the government in
power and enhance the prestige of the
"Minister of Elections" by bribing the
people with their own money.

MAIL ORDER HOUSES BUY NEWS-
PAPERS.
(From The Dry Goods Review).
The big departmental stores continue
to extend their interests in or control of
the daily newpapers in Toronto, Mont-
real and Winnipeg. A large interest
in, if not the control of, another Toron-
to daily has just been acquired. This
makes three dailies in Toronto in which
these mail order houses are financially
interested. In Montreal it came out in
legal proceedings recently that one of
the oldest daily papers there passed
some months ago into the hands of the
chief owner of a rising mail order house
which aims to monopolize the trade in
Eastern Canada. There are now nine
dailies in Toronto, Montreal and Winni-
peg, which are known to be owned or
controlled by, the big store and finan-
cial interests, and while posing as the
mediums of public opinion are the
organs of these interests. The trade
of these houses has grown enormously
in these cities where these dailies cir-
culate, but in the other cities and
smaller places where there are good
local newspapers, they have not made
the same gains, because the local news-
papers are well edited and are loyal
to their local merchants and refuse to
carry the advertising of the big city
store. The only way in which the big
dailies can make headway is by cutting
their prices. They get $3 to E5 a year
in Montreal, Toronto and Winnipeg,
but sell in other cities at 50e to $1 a
year. This does not pay for the white
paper on which these newspapers are
printed, but the heavy deficits are made
up by subsidies through big advertising
contracts and in other ways, and by the
low postal rates. The merchants and
newspapers outside of these three big
centres should get together and insist
that no newspaper should have the
privilege of the mails which has a lower
subscription price outside than in the
centre in which it is published or which
sells at less than the cost of the paper
used.
LESSONS t N THE BY-ELECTIONS.
Ample evidence is given in the result
of the three by -el • ctions this fall that
the wave of excitement which carried
the Borden government in office has
spent its force. It is clear that ' even
in Ontario, which in 1911 was the favor-
ed house of Bordenism, with calm re-
flection has come reaction towards
Liberalism and sane government. The
net result of the three bye -elections
has left the parliamentary representa-
tions of the two parties unaltered, but
it has left the government with a con-
siderably reduced popular vote.
In Chateauguay the Government
turned the Liberal majority of 40 into a
Conservative plurality of 145. This
victory, however, was achieved by such
openly corrupt methods that ever since
then the government workers have
been doing everything possible to cover
up their tracks in preparation for the
protest which they know must unseat
their candidate if the full facts are
brought to light.
In East Middlesex the government
majority was reduced from 661 to 368
in the very heart of Ontario in a by-
election whose result was so conceded
that the Liberals did not exert them-
selves.
In South Bruce the Conservative
majority of 103 in 1911 was converted
into a Literal majority of 115, which
means that 109 voters who marked
their ballots for the Conservatives in
1911 have now turned their allegiance
to the Liberal cause.
The net result of the three by-elections
is that 111 electors who voted for the
Borden government in 1911, have now
become convinced that the Liberal
policy is the best for Canada, and voted
accordingly.
The real result of the by-elections is
to show that the Borden government no
Ionger represents the opinion of the
people of Canada. The turn -over in-
dicated in two typical Ontario Conserva-
tive ridings, if reflected throughout the
country, as it undoubtedly is, would at
a general election convert the present
government majority into an immense
minority.

Hon. Mt. Rogers' administration during
the last fiscal year no less than $18,844,-

18,844;233 of the public money has been spent
on public works. During the first six
months of the presentyear the ordinary
expenditure by the Department of
Public Works was $8,0571,('5, and the
expenditure on Capital account $14,-
291,051, a total of $52,348.160.
In the year ending March 31, 1911,
the last full year of Liberal administra-
tion, only $8,621,431 was spent on ordi-
nary public works, or, including money
spent on Capital account, a gross ex-
penditure of $12,364,048.
The expenditure during the past year
was much mdre than twice the amount
spent by the Liberals two years pre-
viously on Ordinary Account, and fifty

A SCHOOL TEACHER'S ENTERPRISE.
One of the most interesting letters
recently received by the Dairy Com-
missioner, Ottawa, is from a school
teacher in Alberta who asks for milk
record forms and literature on the sub-
ject of Cow Testing, because -now
listen: Some of the boys in the school
are starting a contest in recording the
production of individual cows to last
one year.
This opens up a most protnising field
for every school teacher and for thous-
ands of boys in our country schools.
In this we would be following somewhat
slowly in the wake of many schools in the
United States and New Zealand where
the use of the Babcock milk tester has
been taught for some time. In a dairy
country like this, we should be out
blazing trails for other teachers and
boys to follow.
No better work could be taken up by
such lads, for any record work of that
kind must infallibly lead to better,
vastly better, conditions on dairy farms.
Probably these Alberta lads will soon
be excellent dairymen obtaining seventy-
five or one hundred dollars per cow.
Needless to say the Dairy Division
will be only too ready to supply blank
forms and instructions in all such cases.
HOME BUTTERMAKING.
Market reports invariably quote
creamery butter higher than dairy
butter which is the designation given
to that which is made on the farm. It
is unfortunate that circumstances at
times make it impracticable for dairy
farmers to patronize a creamery.
When this can be done, not only are
the profits, as a rule, increased, but
much hard work is taken away from
the overburdened members of the fam-
ily,
There is no good reason why butter
made in the home dairy should not be
els fine as that made in a creamery
Where eream produced under all manner
of conditions has to be rnade up. All
that is necessary is the carrying out alt
a Well establi.lired system in feeding
the cows, caring for the milk and
cream and the churning and putting up
M the butter. In order to teach the

proper method of carrying out these
various operations. there has been pre-
pared, under the direction of the Dairy
and Cold Storage Commissioner at
Ottawa, a bulletin entitled "Butter -
making on the Farm," written by Mr.
Geo. P, Barr, Chief of the Dairy Divis_
ion.
This work, which may be secured free
from the Publications Branch of the
Department of Agriculture, explains
the common defects of dairy butter as
well as the conditions that are necess-
ary to produce fine flavoured cream.
It then deals with churning, washing,
salting, working, and packing butter,
and considers the modern necessary
utensils and their care. These are
shown in clear illustrations.
This bulletin, which is No. 17 of the
Cold Storage series, concludes with the
following recommendations:- "Keep
good cows, feed them liberally, keep
them comfortable and clean when in
the stable, skim a rich cream and keep
it cool; churn at a temperature that
will give a flaky granule in the butter;
use clean, pure water for washing
butter not more than three degrees
colder or warmer than the buttermilk.
Put the butter up in neat, clean, attrac-
tive packages, and keep everything in
and about the dairy clean and attrac-
tive."

news is handed out that there is a case

the loss of investments which alt too
often were looked on as the chief de-

not confined to the United States.
Several hundreds of Canadians have
