didate appears In the adveaitdsemaent

through to Montreal. at covers a
wide range 0f eubjecta', bit with
particular empbasle upon the Tural
problem Of which Mr. Deachman has
made a very careful study and oe
wiuleb he has given several
remarkable pronouncements In the
House of Commons.
Not only hae he been; active on
the floor of the Horse, but on
Coarmittees. In the Piiess and on the
public Platform. His articles
written last summed' from Wingitam
with references to the surrounding
towns' of Corrie, Dnugannon, Auburn
anal other little but important spots
attracted wide attention and were
reprinted' in many papers in this
county.
His. article entitled "Back To The
Town was a splendid presentation
of the contention that we have
leaned too much en the cities and
have paid too little attention 10
the toe'ns. The city too often has.
a 'powerful voice -while the towns
and the rural areas are not suf-
ficiently vocal to make their
opinions felt in the Councils of the I'
Nation.

I have to repolit about a success-
ful birdfeeding project ^caroled out
on Toa'y Hill during this present
winter, On one sunehiuey day, last
weeds, at one time, three Blue Jays
and a Cardinal were fed. Visits
from, Chicadees, Woodpeckers and
Nuthatches are of daily occurrence,
Why not try your hand at feeding
birds for the rest of March. If the
snow persists some birds may need
your bread: crumbs, corn or sun-
flower seeds and bits of suet', Placed
On wooden shelf in a sheltered
sunny spot you would soon have
quite a 'tou'rist raafflc from the
birds.
The Cardinals are the big (8 ins.)
red birds which are startling in the
brightness of their colour- The
famlale is brownish .yellow with
touches of red, The call is a
series of bright cheery whistles.
During the last Sew winters these
birds have been quite often found in
Ontario. Can it .be that human
help in their food problem has
persuaded therm to favour us with
their bright colours all winter long.

The meeting was a stormy one.
Mr. Deachnnan attacked the Oa -
position tear preparing to "swap
horses in midstream." He ridiculed
the idea that a new group of legis-
lators could be expected, Ito. carry
on the work of the present Gov-
ernment.
"Mr. Cardiff says that tariffs are
not important," deolare'd Mr. '
Deaclaman, 'yet during each elec-
tion, for the past 20 years, tariffs
formed' the main plank in the Con-
servative platform and they advo-
cated tariffs as a cure-all,

lead us in the time of a struggle,
Raising ,More Hogs
,"Mr, Cardiff has ,declared' that
under the present government, the
farmers are getting only enough
money that they are raising hogs
for the exercise. I disagree with
him because the famneats are rats~
ing 1,120,000 more huge this year
than. lash year. They would not be
raising hogs Per the Sun of it. When
we examine the record, we find
that farmers are getting between
$4 and $5 a hundred more for hogs
tban1,they were in 1933 or 1932,.
"When I was rworkdn5g at the
House of .Commons to have Sky
