• Special Clubbing Rate.
Since the opening of the Great
European War last August the Cable
service to The Globe, Toronto, has
attracted attention from one end of
Canada to the other owing to , its
completeness and reliability. Every
day the 'cable news is condensed and
ntcrproted on the front page under,
the title of "Tile War Summary."
This feature makes plain and intelligi-
ble what Would otherwise be conies -
ng to the reader, The Globe mant-
illas its position as "Canada's Na-
ional Newspaper," as is proven by
he fact that its circulation of 87,000

As an illustration of the manner in
which matters will work out, take for
example, the clothing industry. The
rate fixed in this class is '10 cents,
Suppose there is a pay roil in Ontario
in this class of $2,000,000 in the year
1915, this would realize the Accident
Fund the sum of $8,000. If, after
the accidents of the year have been
provided for, it should be found that
only $6,000 has been needed, the bal-
ance of $2,000 will be carried forward
into the next pear's account to the
credit of this class, and the rate the
following year would he reduced act

amount realized from the assessment
should prove insufficient, a higher rate
would lie levied the following year to
meet the deficit, I'ferald.
Bad Roads Are Costly.
Garners Handicapped by High
Cost of Haulage.
The question is often asked, "What
do good roads cost 7"
If rho question were put in another
form, viz„ "What do bad roads cost'?"
the answer would bring home to the
people of Canada what they are paying
as a sacrifice to poor transportation
facilities—this, in addition to the dis-
comfort and dissatisfaction of having
to travel over then.
One of the chief causes of young
people leaving the farm is the lack
of good roads. Rough and muddy
roads retard social life, especially
when, associated with the unpleasant -
nem of driving, is the fact that the
equipment bebomen mudbespattcrell and
requires constant washing. 'I'o avoid
these and other inconveniences, farm-
ers and their families remain at home,
more or less iii isolation, and, ' when
the first opportunity arises, many of
theta leave the farm. There is but
one remedy for this'isolated condition
—by means of good roads, farmers
and their families must be placed in
touch with the social advantages of
the larger communities., Just as soon
as this conditions is reached, the drain
of population from the farm will de-
crease.

Of the economic losses flue to bad
roads separating the farmer from. his
