The announcement last week that Premier Hepburn intended to call a Provincial general ,election this fall created a quickening ori interest in political matters, and in spite of a lie1f-heti.tited denial by Premier Rep• burn of the newspaper announce-' ment rthere seems to be a •genera: feeling that an election Is not far off Mr. Hepburn has etarted repeatedly ,that no election would be .held until atter another session of the Legis- lature, but he would [have an ex- cuse for changing his mind in the disorganization of his Cabinet con. cidence with the labor trouble at Osbatwa. Politicians have a habit of seizing a favourable occasion for an appeal to the people, and Mr. Hepburn may see in present conditions signs ray- arable to the return of his Govern. ment, On the other hand, It may be urged that he could go before the electors with a much better record if he would hold off until the current, fiscal years is completed, when ho would be in a position to show far orable results of another Year's • financing, if he should rely upon ex- cellent showing of the last year, ,ltfs opponents would say that hie achievement in reducing debt and taxation was but a flash in the pan and could not be repeated.

In agrt- culture, we have only two to three workers 'front which to choose a fan( ankanaiger. The comparison in. ddoates that there is ten times great- er demand for farm managers titan for industrial managers, It is Mr. Here's conviction that the euccese- fud operabion of a farm requires hist as gr•ealt management skill as le needed in industry. Training in farm management is vitally iempoe- tant, He could not hitt pay tribute to farmers Who have risked all in tak- ing their families to farms and wagering that they could maintain themselves and they families from the soil. Many have succeeded in spite of handicaps, but management teething would have greatly reduced the apprenticeship period, improved the income a those carrying on and avoided many failures. The basic of Term management ]fes in accounting. Farm account books have been av- ailable to farmers for years but have been used very scantily. Farm an - counting is more than the record- ing of details to learn the status of the bu iuess, This is very useful but the record of this year's busi- ness can readily form the basis of an Improved farm business for the coming year. —The Fnancial Post, MAY HE PROSPER It looks right nolo as if the farmer )was having a break; was coming In- to his own again. With nine -cent cattle and pretty •nearly nine -cent hogs, things are 7leoking better, With a dollar twenty or twenty-five cents being gaotea .for new wheat, things look crew brighter still, And the wheat looks pretty well, too.

Britain dry ice is used to keep ice cream and other comestible es at a constant temperature, In India it is used by •the air services to cool 'planes, and in America as the centre of golf halls! Ai Germany noiseless motors are being run by means of dry ice. When It melts, carbondlokide gas is given off, and the pressure created by this gas is sufficiently strong to run these motors. At present only small motors are ruts on it, but they have a very ,high efficiency and a greater horsepower than other nue tors of lite same size.

If you have brough t him up in the British tradition, you can be sure he will want to know both sides. Right now he is hearing from the prohibitionist, who is loudly crying that the beverage rooms are corrupting youth and debauching public morals. You will do your son and yourself a favor if you set him straight. Tell him what happened when we had prohibition. Tell him about secret drinking of bad liquor in automobiles and blind pigs. Tell him how it bred contempt for law ... how bootleggers prospered and how racketeering and lawlessness grew. Tell your son that people can't be made sober by law. Tell him that the way of tolerance and temperance is best. Today, now in certain communities, men are trying to persuade us to extend local option laws, close beverage rooms. The occasional drinker who indulges too freely ... the few license holders who may not always adhere to the strict regulations of the Ontario Liquor Control Board, are being used as arguments against present conditions. So tell your son the whole story. Tell him this .."7. that properly conducted beverage rooms are the first defence against the bootlegger, the strongest weapon against excessive drinking. Tell your son about true temperance—which is moderation and self-control. • Thin advertisement is inserted by the Drearino Industry in the interest of a better pubiie understanding of certain aspects of tkc problems of temperance and local option. 1 La Prairie, Man„ is home for a short visit.
