These are the indispensable planks requisite iu any platform that aims to provide a place for all progressives who desire a radical departure in the government and policy . of the nation.- On this platform there is ream for every Citi- zenzen whatever his past affiliations, who is citi- , to subordinate other and tniaor issues to the paramount neces- sities ef his, country at this crucial period in her existence. And the par- amount necessities of the day are the fusioni of the democratic forces throughout the Dominion and the re- establishment of govern- ment, One Of the arguments used in sup- port of the establishment of Union Government was that by a coalition of forces things could be done which under non -coalition conditiens could not be accomplished. But the demo- cratic coalition we advocate, while essentially different from that now in existence at Ottawa, can app-ly this argument with much greater force. For while -the ends attained by the Union coalition were _gained by meth- ods subversive of Parliamentary government and in defiance of public opinion, the. coalition we seek to pro- mote will be broad-based on democratic principles of government and derive tits authority from the people. It will differ from Unionism as day dif- fers from night—as Democracy differs from, Autocracy. Unity! How may we attain it and for what ends? The first step towards unify is a clear conception of the fad that what the country mcg needs is good government. With the disastrous results of Union government before our eyes a return to respensible gov- ernment must be regarded as the para. mount issue before the country. This does not mean, as some suppose, a mere Change of parties, personnel and minor policies. No party can succeed in restoring responsible government • which is not prepared to effect drastic Parliamentary reforms. It is not a questiors of clean government and a free franchise only. It must strike deeper if freedom is. tc, be restablish- ed. ,The lquestion involves a radical departure in the relations between the Executive and Parliament, and in the relatiohs between Parliament and the electors. All other reforms, how- ever ittipoTta.nt they may be in the eyes of 'various classes in the (`-1111- 11111nityz sink inta comparative insig- nificance heside the question of the reform of government. ,The restora- tion. of popular government—of goy -- eminent dependent U.pon 'the will of the peeple—goes to the roots of our 'national ills. With such a forth of government ' all things are possible for Chose who seek the redress of 'evancese be it the farmer or the worker or the eonsttmer; but there can be no ce#ainty of achieving last- ing reforms ii our economic and social life 'unless the popular -will be first 'eetablished as the predominant. force in -the ,Parliamentary government of the Dominion. Only by such a reform of government can the liberties of th.e people • be safeguarded and the way', made- • clear for legislative measures for which farmers and work- ers and consumers are crying out. The necessity for unity amongst those who are fundamentally opposed to the Union Gov,ernment is not a necessity: born of Liberal party ex- igencies. The primal instinct of self- preservation calls for unity, for with- out it neither governmental reform nor the ettainment of economic'. free- d is possible. The ways Of the prac c politician, decry Utilities as unthi king critics may, is the .only • pos de way to secure control of the lea atiee machine. If Canada is to • be ma safe for Democracy it must be through the co nstitutional agenty of a Parliament 4f the people. To attain this end there must be essential' unity of spirit it. the ranks and unity of effort in the struggle for the over- throw of all the influences that are hostile ho Democracy, .

The . Liberal Party does not aSkthis complete surrender' on the part of any former Unionist But it must claim, or court defeat on the threshold of the new day, that those who call themselves Liberals, and who bold that the ,su- preine iseue is the -.restoration of re- sponsible government, shall not be per- mitted in the name' of Liberalism to sow suspicion and dissension. in the ranks of the democratic forces which,. all over the -country and notably in Ontario, are marshalling for the over- throw of the Unionist autocracy and the re-establishment of the lost liber- ties of the people on the sure founda- tions of reformed Parliamentary gov- ernment. Unity and good government! These are the watthwords of the new Liberal advance. GRASS AND CLOVER ENSILAGE When the term "ensilage" ii used in Canada, it nearly always refers to ensilage ; made from corn, for the' reason that corn is practically the only forage plant which is ,used for 'en- silage- in this country. There are, however, 'a considerable number of forage plants which may be converted into ensilage of high feeding value but, sd far, only Such plants .which cannot very well be cured into hay and tvhich, at tie' same time, produce bulky crops have been utilized for the purpose. For the same reason, grasses and clovers are not looked upon, as belonging to the class of forage pleats from which ensilage may be satis- factorily and economically made'and yet the . first ensilage prodtioed in modem times was made from grass. Thus, history tells us that the people Jiving in the countries bordering on the south-eastern toast of the Baltic Sea' ia Europe, made- it a practice, long ago; to preserve their grass crops in an unique manner. Trenches were dug in the ground/ to a considerable depth and filled with freshly -mown grass. The grass was packed as hari as possible and. when the trenches were well filledsi it was loaded down with large stone a so • as ta he kept under heavy pressure After a certain - time a product was obtained which to all intents and purposes was identical with 'what is now called ensilage. This method of converting the • grass into a wholesome and nourishing food, was later, in a somewhat modified way, applied to Indian cern in France where, as a matter of fact, the mak- ing of corn ensilage wee first success - fully. attempted. From 'France the method was brought to this continent_ where it was Uerfected and soon gain: Ed universal pdpularity wherever' corn tepid, be raised remuneratively, for fodder. •• . Iti5 the irony of things That, while corn became increasingly popular as an ensilage crop, the fact diet common grass was the first crop used for en- silage purpose's was soonforgotten, so 'much so that at present only com- paratively few farmers are aware that grass may be advantageously., made jilt° ensilage. And not only grass but clovet and alfalfa as well, may be converted into excellent ensil- age. Some experiments witli grass, clover. and alfalfa ensilage fed. to dairy cows which recently have been conducted at the Dominion Experi- mental Farm, Agassiz, B. C., strongly •iendicate that ensilage -made fromthe latter forage crops constitutes a most valuable, feed, the use of Which spells profit to the dairy farmer. The prace tice of putting the grass and plover crop into the silo in about the same manner as for clover, may therefore well be • encouraged, especially' if weather and labor conditions at har- vesting time are mit -favourable to the making of dheapthay �f the beg quality, HURON NOTES e -On.
