FOUL BROOD -1N
Owing .to the rather Serious ;ont
break of American Foul Brood 'in 'the
bees` of this cpurity and particularly
that ' section lying between Goderieh,
Aub ani and Clinton, we• think it ad-
wvisablethat the public should know
wore of its serious nature. ' r
This disease if unmolested will soon
wipe "a t whole apiaries and spread ra-
pidly front beeyard to beeyard The
disease spreads chiefly by owners 4tot
knowing the disease and the weiltng
pt colonies from yead to yard, tivith-
out being inspected.
All :beekeepers should aecquaint theist_
selves With the Bee Diseases Act of
1020. Following are some of ' the
clauses that should be ,observed by
all bee owners.
Clause 4—The inspector niay order
the owner or possessor of any bees
dwelling in box or, immovable frame
hives to transfer them : to movable
frarhe hives within ' a specified time,
and in -default the inspector' may des-
troy, or order the destruction of.atrch,
hives and the bees dwelling therein.
Clause 9-1,` • Where an infectious
or contagious disease exisits an 511
apiary the o"Wrier or possesor-thereof
shall not sell, barter, give-away or re-
move from the •premises any bees or
used apiary appliances or apparatus
until he has secured a certificate :from
the Provincial, Apiarist that such bees,
used apiary appliances or apparatus
have,. been properlydisinfected ;.and
are free front,disease.
3. ,Every person who: contravenes'
the provisions of subsection 1: or of
subsection 2 of ,this section shall be
guilty of an offence and shall incur a
penaltyof not less than $50
n nor more'
than $100.'
,Clause 6 -Ari person p on wdtose Trees
have been destroyed or' treated for
Foul Brood, who sells. or offers ;for
sale any bees, hives or .appurtenances
of any kind, after such destruction or
treatment, end ibefore being authori--
ed by 'the inspector to .do so, or who
exposes in his bee -yard, or elsewhere,
any infectedcomb, honey .me other; -in-
fatted thing, or conceals the fact 'that
said disease exists among his bees,.
shall incur a penalty of not less than
$20 and not more 'than $50, or he may
be imprisoned for a term not' exceed-
ing fro months.
It is no disgrace to get Foul
$rood in your yard but it is a dis-
' grace to keep .it there.
. Huron county bees produce honey
enough each year to pay for the
maintenance and repairs of our county
higlhways. Let us not lose this re-
venue.
When you •lany orsell bees; when
you know of the presence of disease;
when you strongly suspect disease,
communicate. with the Provincial Ap-
iarist, 0,A.C. Guelph,,or your local
Department of Agriculture, Clinton;
Ont.

TIIE BOTTOM DROPPING OUT OF?F.
THE REVENUE
The bottom is dropping out of the
revlenuo all right. When ,the ,Govern-
ment first announced its revenue
changes in, the Budget Speech,Ilan
J; A. Robb expressed the view that
they would mean, a total loss 01,924,-
000,000. Dining the couose of the
session noble other changes were made
so that finally the Acting Minister of
Finance tlouglht that the •loss might,
total between 925,000,000 and 926,000-
000 for the year. Tho loss in-eus-
toms revenue he.placed at .91,255,000.:
W el, the chicken 'a�e .now 'coating
home to roost ;'and in.. ,much larger
number than Mr. Robb thought was
possible. The Budget 'Speech was
made one week after the opening ,of
the new fiscal year and ;it is found
that the; loss in ,revenue during the
first four months' has been -actually'
920,000,000 on customs and exoise.
That is to say, Mr, Robb has lost dur-
ing this time about four-fifths of the
total amount he thought - he would
lose during the whole 12 months.
If the loss in revenue continues at
sate that has been maintained dur-
ing the first four months of the fiscal
year, instead of losing 925,000,000 or
'$28,000,000, the Government will lose',
$60,000,000 in custoans and ;excise:,

HYDROPLANES 'REPLACE THE'
CANOE•' -
Tho great possibilities of comme>-
eial aviation in Canada and the val-'
utrbie services it'renders, already are
illustrated by the popularity of the
nets air route opened between Hailey -
buy, Ontario and the gold fields of
Quebec.' ,Since the Laurentide Air
,Service Limited has established a new
,base of operation at Ilaileybury, the
first' and only Canadian town to have
its own air harbor with refueling eta-
tion and mooring facilities, they have
earried over 250 passengers and 10*
tons of freight to 11411P1 and the sur-
rounding gold fields,
Every d4";- owners of mines or
capitalists interested in the recently
discovered rich mining area, avail
tltemseives of the facilities ofethe air
rotate, the' most direct and quickest
way ;to the districts of Reuyn, Gow-
gande, Mataiblteheuan and other min-
ing localities. Reaching Haileybury
by the Canadian National Railways
Transcontinental train, they make
their connection there with one of
the three H.S. 2L hydroplanes oiler-
ated by the Laurentide Air Service
Limited and iri an hour or so are
landed ,gently in lake Osiska in :front
of the new town of Reuyn, 86 miles
„distant. 'Otherwise, the/journey to
Rouyn by canoe, with the usual hard-
ships of portages, flies, etc., would
tale two and a half days Now
they , enjoy the view ea this thickly
wooded country, dotted with innumer-
able lakes from an altitude of 2,600
feet. And as far as safety is con-
cerned, airmen who followed the'
Haileybury-Reuyn air route, are un-
animous in declaring .that it is one of
the safest in ,Canada.- .Lake Testis-
kerning, with its many miles of open
Water, offerq an' ideal place for a

deice, the big:flying boats of the L.A;
S. service, follows v cumpletely'wa-
tered ratite providing excellent facil-
ities. under all conditions Machines
are under the constant supervision .of
expert engineers and all pilots have
war records, follosired by many years
of experience in commercial aviation.
,Mr. B. W. Breateh,who is in charge
of this aviation service, is himself a
pilot of reputation, staving served
with the R.N;A.S., and R,C.A.F.
Bringing passengers from civiliza-
tion into the 'wilderness inside of
75 minutes is not the only feat ea-
coenplislzeci by the fiaileybury-Reuyn
Air service. One:`instance'is given
wheniamining camp which ran Short
of suppljes and, was confronted with'
temporary starvation, sent a message
`vihih brought in a' short tithe a by
droplane loaded with food, Recently`
a bigrmining'transaetioer was carried,

'of the flying boat. t A deal, involy
mg many hundreds of thousands of
dollars, whicli.Tied to be signed ;'be-

Saturday morning was given1to one
of the pilots at nine o'clock in the
morning, and two houis and a quar-
ter later, the document properly ex-
ecuted, was returned to the office of
the sender and the deal went through.
-Working in co-operation with the
Canadian National Railways, the
Laurentide•Air Service now proposes
to enlarge its activities to meet' the
demand .'of the; public and should the
numberlef people now availing themlr
pelves Of this ultra enodetn system of•
transportation keep, increasing in, the
fame proportion, a little fleet of, flying
boats will be seen plying between
ITailoybnry and the hew gold fields.
Among recent passedgeas were,
Col, Sam Thompson of;' New York,
a^ anining ,man of'international {repo..
tatiolt; and Mr. ' Il'tigh Park,, general
manager of the NipisSing mine at Co
Robb was in his estimating. He ex-
pected that the loss might be 91,225-
000 for the, year: During' the first
fent; months it was actually $4,781,-
000, or nearly four times what -he
thought it • might 'be for the whole
12. If the rate ;Of loss during these
four months is maintained the loss in-
stead of being 91,225,000 for theyear
will be over $14,000,000. . 01 course
it is impossible to say just what will
' happen, but it is now known that in
less than six months the Government
Will lose in revenue as much as it ex-
pected to lose during the whole of the
yeal;
Tina is anexample of scientific tar-
iif-malting as understood by the Ring
Government. This is an example of
the careful adjusting of 'taxation to
the back of /business. There never
was a worse example of hit -and -n iss
financing. If the Government had
merely shut its eyes and slashed the
revenue with a'Iinife it could hardly
have done worse. And it is under
such condition that business is ex-
pected to prosper.
The situation would not be so bad
if expenditure were being reduced 112
like manner. But it is not. As a
matter of fact itis higher than it was.
during the first months of, the last
fiscal year, With rapidly declining
revenues on one hand, and ,higher ex-
penditure on the other, -where will
the country land?
In the Budget speech the Govern
anent assured the Country that strin-
gent economy would be practised, and
as an evident of this it said: "Look
at the estimates, they call for an ex..
pendituro of only $400,000,000 this
year as against. $440,000,000 last
year," But don't forget the cammn_
Hage, . In the first plate there was
an addition 96,600,000 in the-"supple-
mentaries,then $20,000,000 for
branch lines, nearly $14,000,000 for a
bridge and a viaduct in Toronto and
Montreal, and $5,000,000 for Vancou-
ver Harbour. In other words, the
Government secured the authorization
not of $400,000,000,ibut`of an expendi-
ture of 9446,000,000. `
