FARMERS' CO-OPERATIVE •UUSINESS DEALINGS This article from the pen of H. J Pettypiece, ex-M.P.P., recently appear cd in his paper, The Forest Free Press The national necessity of .an in ',crease in food production is recognize fby every' citizen of Canada who give :a moment's thought to the great finan •tial crisis which the country is fac ing to -day. How vital this necessity :is, heed not be, reiterated. here. The ways and means by which production oc an be increased should be discussed 'candidly, frankly and without ill -will. :Therefore, in this spirit,. it will not be out of order to consider how the organized farmers' movement is likely to effect this great and immediate no.- - tional problem. A candid investiga- tion of the trade operations of the • ',organized farmers of the -Province of lOntario must lead to the conclusion that these operations, instead of aid- ing in the cause of increased produc- tion, are bound to tause a still fur- ther decline in- the production' of food -throughout the whole province. Re- ent issues of the Farmers' Sun, the 'sada organ of the United Farmers 'of Ontario have contained Many. edi- torials, special articles, and reports 'of speeches by officers of that organ- ization, all pointing out and deploring the gradual decline of rural popula- tion and the consequent decline in -production, and the abnormal growth*, oof the big cities, which they truly :say is a national menace. The same papers carry large and attractive dis- • play advertisements, urging the farm- sers to buy all their coal; salt, ferti- lizers, building' and fencing material, paint, flour, . feed, stoves, groceries, •etc., direct from their U. F. 0. head- quarters in Toronto, instead of from the local dealers in their respective country towns. While it is doubtful, extremely doubtful, that the farmers can, in the long run, save anything aby this mode of buying, it is certain beyond the peradventure of at doubt, -that it will bring disaster to the farmers themeelves. The prosperity •of the farmers is as much dependent -on the prosperity of the nearby coun- try towns as towns are on the farmers. Their interests are one and insepar- arable. If the farmers will not deal in their own . country towns these towns will die a natural death, and then farming operations in, their neighborhoods • will become Idm-id •less profitable accordingly. Land -will depreciate in value„ and the young people, especially the boys, will eek employment in- the large ,centres of population. even to a greater extent than they have.been doing in the. past. It is no exaggeration to say that no farmer who can get away will con- tinue to carry on farming operations unless he is in convenient proximity to. a tov.mi where he can dispose of his smaller products, and where he =can readily obtain the -thousand and -one things; required in his home and on his farm. There are always ne- ceasities and often accommodations which he must have, and which cannot be obtained from the distant cities. Churches, schools and meeting places are as essential to the well-being of the -farmers as they are to city resi- dents, and those can ,prosper only in ,community centres. In a word, the prosperous country towns make :prosperous farmers, while. declining towns mean declining agriculture. Do the farmers of Ontario realize that their operations, apart from politics (which are commendable), and calcu- lated to increase, rather than remedy, the very evils they so much deplore?. Do they realize that in taking their trade from their hone -town dealers, and sending it to the cities, they are depreciating the value of their own farm, and diminshing the comforts of their own home life? History tells .us that a declining agriculture means national ruin, and our farmers should ponder well the great :risks they are taking in -centralizing in the big,. cities the trade -which belongs •legitimately to their own home towns. While they are right in their denuncia- tions of a fiscal policy that. has been unfair to their interests, they are at the same tune , advocating a line of action that will- cause ever greater injuries to theinselVes, and to their country as well. Patriotism and self- interest are both involved in this movement. of. the farmers towards the ,cities,'and every effort should be made to check it.

It is a- great mistake to let matters drift when boys and girls: show symptoms • of nervousness or weak blood. They are almost sure to fall • victims of St. Titus dance, or -drift into debility that -leads to ' other troubles. Regular meals, out -door, exercise and plenty of sleep are necessary to cornbat the' nervous wear of school life. But it is still more important that parents should pay strict attention to the school ehild's blood supply. Keep this rich and red by. giving Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills according to direc- tions and the boy or girl will --be stur- dy and fit for school. The value of • Dr, Williams' Pink Pills in cases of , this kind is shown by the statement I of Mrs. Pearl G. Harrington, Kings -1 ville, Ont., who says:—"I have often felt that I should ' write you and let you know what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills did for me. At the age df thir- teen I was afflicted with- St. Vitus dance.. The trouble became so severe that I had to be taken- from school. I was given medical treat- ment but it did not help me, in fact - 1 was steadily growing worse. Then a friend advised Inv mother to give Me 'Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which she did, with the happiest results, as the pills completely cured me and I was again able to take up my studies and attend school. Again about three years ago I was attacked with nervous prostration and once more took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after using five boxes was fully restored. I can- not praise these pills too highly as I believe they will elire any case of St. 1 Vitus dance, or restore anyone who is weak, nervous Or run down. You can safely . give 'Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to the most. delicate thild, or take them yourself with equally good results when you need a blood tonic. Those pills are sold by all dealers 'in medicine, or will be sent by mail, post paid, at 50 cents a box or Six boxes for $2.50 by The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. • • • •••#.0.#•••• TIIE HURON EXPOSITOR . • • _ Stewart's Sell it for Less 1 - Mail or Phone Your Orders ctr • TWO Stores Filled With Seasonable ercharidize, Bought Months Ago Giving You the Advantage of Very Reasonable Prices Smart Fall Coats for Women and Girls • INDIVIDUAL MODELS THAT ARE A JtOY TO I3sEHOLD, WITH THEIR BEAUTIFUL HAND-TAIL04- ING, DISTINCTIVE- STYLES AND EXQUISITE MATERIALS. • Fall Coats and Suit for Men • Hundreds of the 'very ChOicest of the Season's New Styles of Depend- able Materials.. .
