UNITY AND GOOD GOVERNMENT!
(The Statesman)
Unity and good_government! 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

party advantagest Its late experience
should hap warned The Globe against
a repetition of its mistake in support -
Union. Government To carry out its
self-imposed obligations to Union Gov-
ernment.The Globe was compelled to
yield to Sir Robert Bdrden unquali-
fied support on every issue. .To
viate from this course was to re-
pudiat,e and destroy the Government
it had helped to create, and to dthat
the avowed end for which T.Inion Gov-
ernment was formed. 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
