CANDIDATES SEEKING ELECTION There were 270 candidates nominat- ed on Monday last to contest the 111 seats in the Ontario Legislature. The.. parties are represented as follows: Conservatives .. . . .....-105 • . ......... 70 United Farmers 64 Independent Labor .... ... 19 Labor -Farmers .... 8 Soldier -Labor 1 Socialists - 2 Grand Army of Canada , 1 DUBLIN FARMERS GROW SUNFLOWERS IN PLACE OF CORN "Ensilage from sunflowers," it sounds rather like a fairy tale to be- gin with, but the. possibilities of such a thing have been proven to be decid- edly attractive, and, two farmers of the County of Huron have practical experience in the matter as the re- sult of having grown five acres each of sunflowers, cut it and put it in the silo. In comparison with corn in the matter of weight of ensilage to the acre it has been a good venture, and it is just possible that growing sun- flowers by the acre may not be un- common in the near future. ° IVIaking ensilage from sunflowers is not an entirely new venture,but has not been tried out on Ontario farms. A little plot at the 0. A. G. is about the only other acreage of sunflowers from which information as to yalue as animal food has been available. In Alberta, on the other hand, extensive experiments have been carried out. Results so far seem to prove that sunflowers chopped up and stored in a silo form a foocl. quite as good. as corn. It seems to have the seine effect in feeding dairy cows as corn, and • promotes a• good flow of milk. The two farmers in Dublin district who. grew 'sunflowers this year were James Delaney and Leo .1exauskopf, both of Dublin. The corn crop the previous year had not been to Mr. Delaney's liking. The seed had been Wrong or soft- conditions did not seem to snit, with the result that the yield Was poor. Mr. Delaney decided to try sunflowers, Mr. Krauskopf, across the road, also made up his mind, to experiment. , They planted five acres each, just as they would plant Corm A couple of weeks before it was ready to cut it was -uniform- ill height and nearly all eight or ten feet high. It grew some after that It did not head out any too well, and the seeds are im- portant in the matter of food value, but the heads might be classed as fait, When it came to cutting, there was no difficulty because it was harvested with an qrdinary corn binder. Mr. Delaney says it cut better than corn. At the ground the stocks were pretty . woody, but they cut nicely a foot from the ground. . The crop was cut in exactly the tame way as corn and put into the silo. A comparison of the amount from five acres seems to show that corn is the better crop, but perhaps not so much in weight or food value. Mr. Delaney's silo is about 14 feet by 40 feet, and the sunflower ensilage filled it to about 12 feet from the top. The sunflower fodder will be fed .mainly to dairy cattle during the winter.Mae Delaney is confident that he is losing nothing by substituting the sunflowers' for the corn as long as the ensilage keeps well, which it appears to be doing. e • WORKLESS LABOR (Continued from last week.) In these days the .farmer's know- ledge ef ateeine es not limited to the ' fame, for la, reacts extensively, and besides he holes a somewhat wide ac- quaintance with men of affairs in more than one line of business. For example, his friend the ship - buil ler told him the other day that the company of.which he was a mem- ber hail jeet finisbed a. merchant ship, at the expenditure of four hundred thousand hours of labor, when the same company had turned eout an exact duplicate before the wgr at an expenditure of two hundred thousand hours of labor. Not only -that, the later workmen received an aveaege wage a little mere than double that of those who worked twine as efficiefit- Such an incident as this makes the farmer shake his head. He cannot understand why , doubling the wage should halve the efficieneye yet he has seen something like it in his own ex- perience. What he does understand is teat the second ship must have wet twice as much of -human -time and energy as was necessary; and what is very much more to the point, that the same men might have built two ships in the same length of time, which fact is of some consequence as long as we really, need ships. The farmer assumes, of pourse, that we would not be building ships if we did not need them awl that therefore the whole purpose of the company is to get ships built, just the same as his purposes is to get the fields cultivated. The farmer connects this concrete incident with his own experience in trying to build, with what he sees going on about him every day, and with what he hears about the great scarcity of houses the country over, now that we have well-nigh suspend- ed building_4or three or fol.& years. - knows that all daises of people are being discommoded - because of insufficient housing and that the building trades should be among the 1 first to "get' busy" after the War not a , only in order to start tither moving but to provide sufficient helloing for all the people. He knows that Car- penters and masons and plumbers do not work as they used to work, neither do they work as he and his men are obliged to work if they are to get the work done. Indeed, he has ocular evidence that outside the farm the effort to "got the. work done and out of the way" is well-nigh a lost art, if indeed not -taboo, as instance , the building of the ship. And he applies all this to the hous- ing'. problem which is becoming acute in his own -home town. as in all others. His friend, Air Wealthy, for example, is enout to build a line residence. He naturally wonders what it Will . cost him. The farmer reasons this way about it: Here is a definite job to be done, not much different from Cultivating a field of corn in proper season, only the Job is bigger. Thet workmen can build the house in two hundred thous- and hours and everybody knows it. But will they do it? It all depends upon their attitude toward the job. They may reason this way: Old Weathy has more money thao is good for him. Some of it was probably got by mdair ineaps and now is, our chance to even up on him. We will put- up our wages and shorten the hours and "soldier" a little to make the job go round. In that way we shall get the most out of this par- ticular opportunity. Now, if the mason and the ,hod - carrier and the , carpenter and the slater and the lather and theeplumber and the plaster and the painter and the decorator all combine and figure this Way, then the house, like the ship, twill probable' cost four hundred thousand hours oflabor instead of the two hundred thousaod that might have built it. Welt; what of it? The "old man" can pay the bills and what's ' the difference if his castle did cost him twice what it might have been built for? ' . This is the, difference! If those workmen could have ,built the house in two 'hundred thousand hours, they could have built two houses in four hundred thousand, an,d if they could have done that they could have easily ' built not only M. Wealthy's house but also a very good home for the mason and perhaps one for the carp- enter -without straining themselves, friends are pleased to know that she Mellicher; rabbit -3e Aldington, deg- gathering, He was then followed by . . , is convalesing under the care of Dr. Elmer TOM.

With a wrong attitude,, however, Only the rich men can have hoinees and the men who build them will go without, for it is labor, not money, that builds houses. That is to say, the chief point in the transaction is not that Mr. Wealthy's home cost him twice what, it ought, but that the mason's and the carpenter's houses were not built. Now Mr. Wealthy could ill, afford to pay twice what his house was worth, for all money ought to be used to good iadyantage, but he being rich could fa e better afford to do that than coued. the .mason and the carp- entet afford to go without homes. - For it works out in the end every- where just as it does upon .the farni. If the farmer will not cultivate, then shall he not reap; and if he cultivates indifferently then will his ' crop be 'small., Just so, if the carpenter will not do a full day's work, whatever the wage, then he himself cannot live in a good home. And if the plumber soldiers on thejob, then no scheme , of higher wages Or shorter hours or governmental management will ever put a bathtub into his own hoine. ' If we are to have houses with bath- rooms in. them, then, they 'must 'be bunt and installed by the Carpenter and the plumber. This is a matter of work, pot wages, and we shall have both houses and food in exact propor- tion as we labor efficiently. Upon this point we are indebted to Ressia for a useful demonstration of the fact that all these matters when reduced to their lowest terms express l themselves as e ad and butter. The Russian workman had long • wanted higher wages and shorter hours -that is. he wanted to make a living easier than he had ever made it before. He was convinced that there was a better way. He found what looked good and tried it out under conditions that rapidly produc- ed results. But by and by food began to run low. Not being offered for sale in Aufficient quantities, the ex -workmen , went to the country to get it. They found wheat. but the peasant farmers seemed strangely reluctan t to sell. i Price seemed no object. "We have plenty of money; set your price." The peasant shook his head. He would rather keep his wheat. "Don't want the money? Why not?" (Continued next week). LONDESBORO Notes. -The Thanksgiving services which were held in the Methodist church were a grand success. Mt.

The first speaker was Mr. Fred Ellerington, the Liberal Con- servative nominee, who made a short and , neat address itt which he asked for support as the candidate of the party and promising to do his very best in the interests of the people. He was followed by Mr. John Morgan; the Liberal Reform candidate, who addressed the meeting very ably and made a strong plea, for the support of the electors of the South Riding • of the County of Huron, promising 'that he would do his best in the in- terests of his party and the people. He was then followed by Mr. Andrew Hicks, the . U. F. 0. Candidate, who spoke very earnestly and forcibly in the interests of the farmers and urged support for their cause, which he con- sidered was_ not looked after by the present form of government by, the two parties as it Should be, and promised if elected to do his very best in their interests. We, Henry Eilber, ExeM, P.P., for South Huron, then spoke, not as•a candidate but in the interests of the Liberal Conservative party of which party he had had the honr of continOusly representing as member for South -Huron for- over 20 'years and made a very strong appeal for the support of the Hearst administration and made a strong and forcible ad- dress for a considerable length 'of time, in which he gave many figures and statistics in support, of his state- ments, and was listened throughout with ,much interest- by the large • posed of Miss Helen Holt, first soprano of St. Paul's Cathedral, Detroit, Mich.; Miss Lulu Marian Somerville, soloist of King Street Presbyterian church; London; Miss Dora Cecille Bradley, violinist and e second 'alto soloist, of -Wing Street Presbyterian church, and Miss Marie Jacques Westland, elocu- tionist and first alto.. These young ladies well sustained the splendid re- putationa they hold anddelighted the large congregation present with their choice din' finely rendered numbers, and were most liberal and obliging in responding to encores. , In fact so much were their selections enjoyed that every number brought forth an encore or as the boys wold say for more, more and more. About the mid- dle of the programme a pleasing inci- dent and change in it was the presen- tation to Mr. Erastus Rannie, theeyery efficient leader of the choir and church pecretary and treasurer, of a very fine large arm chair, accompanied also by a handsome and costly gold watch and 'chain together with a most pleasing address expressive •5f the Warm ap- preciation of the congregation of his long and voluntary services as choir leader and church official. The ad- dress-, was read by Mrs. Richard Blatehford and the presentations were - made by Mrs. Kenny and Mrs; Je D. Wilson, and although so many of the .congregation and friends were in possession of the secret, neither Mr. Rennie nor Mrs. Rennie had any if- timation or hint of what was corning SO that it was, indeed, a complete surprise to MT. Rennie, who thanked the congregation and friends most heartily. for their splendid and useful presents or gifts and expressing at the same time the pleasure it had ever, given him to work for the great Master and his church, and that he would be the more encouraged to de so by the kindness shown him. 'The pastor, Rev. Mr. Doan,, emphasized the services that Mr. Rennie had given - so freely and voluntarily without re-. muneration, and how pleased he was at this recognition of valuable services on the part of the congregation. An- other pleasing feature a the' evening Was a short and kindly address from the Rev. Mr. McConnell, pastor of the Presbyterian church, who expressed bimself so much pleased with the excelleot programme of the evening and the warm greetings sent by nearly all the pastors of the Methodist church during the past twenty-five years, and also of his admiration of their present minister and the effective work he was doing, not only in the church services, but also in the great temp- erance OT referendum cause, which is at the present time the ,burntag or .all absorbing topic or question of the day. , He felt that while the state and politicians were mali to the import- ance) of the atter hat the church could not be satisfie with anything else than leading, rather than. follow- ing in these great questions and move- ments which involved the welfare of 'society. The Rev. Mr. Doan fulfilled the duties of chairman in his usually able and - pleasing . manner and the entertainment was brought to a close by the singing of the national anthem, -The annual Harvest Home Services of St. Paul's .
