What Will the Weather Be?
A. Toronto man has predicted the--
the
he:the coming summer will be the cold-
est and wettest summer in
years. Will he be right?
Some one else has said that if it
.doesn't winter right in winter, it
won't summer right in summer. There
might be quite a bit of truth in that.
We had October weather in January
and 'February; January weather in
March, and now we are having Febru-
ary, weather in April.
Such weather should, prepare ,one
for anything. The Toronto Globe,
however, is much more encouraging.
It said on Wednesday: "The sno.v
man takes his final fling."
'But then again there are a whole
lot of people :Who are quite willing
to admit that The- Glebe does not

which it once spake. Here's hoping

aroused the other members of„ the'
family, but the 'fire had gained such
headway then that it was only with
great difficulty that they were able
to escape irr their fright clothing.'
Nothing was saved, the, entire con-
tents being completely consumed, and
nothing but the walls of the house
left 'standing. Besides the ordinary
contents,' Mr. McGregor,'who is clerk

All Very True
The Huntsville. Forester 'says that
en the Orillia market on Saturday
last you could buy a pound of butter
and a dozen eggs for twenty-five
cents. This may have been a cheer-
ful experience for the urban house-
holder, 'but what about the farmer
who parted with his product at 'half
its value? Prosperity will not re-
turn so long' as the primary producer
faces a loss on everything he has to
sell
That is all very true. Much truer,
in fact, than people appear to re
alize, or if tam extent,ey aredo-realizeit to a cer-
tain to admit.
We have, at different times, assert-
ed that the farmer is the most self
contained man there is in Ontario to-
day. • And that is true to a very large
extent. If a farmer has,his property
clear, with the average crop that is
harvested, he can lire indefinitely and
can support his family in -comfort on
, what he grows, regardless of the price
•.of farm products.
But that is as far as he can go.
He can neither make money to save
nor can he make money with whic'a
to •buy_ other people's products. And,
while cheap products may appear to
r
be a boon to urban householders,'.
must be remembered -that the capital
of the urban householder is limited
:and unless he can turn over the pro -
.ducts he has to sell, it will not be
long before his buying power is ex-
hausted, no matter how cheap living
may become.
The assertion is often•made that
•our pioneer farmers not only Iived
.on, but made money and built sub .
stantial homes out of ten cent butter
and eggs; sixty cent ;wheat; three
dollar hogs and three cent cattle, ani
if the present day farmer can't do
the' same, there must be something
the matter with him.
Well, as a matter of fact, there is
something the matter, and very ser •
iously the matter with our present
day farmers. They are suffering from
a disease. their forefathers knew lit-
tle about. They•are suffering almost
beyond a hope of recovery from the
disease of taxation.
(Fifty years ago the taxes on a
hundred acre farm were around
twenty-five -dollars. To -day the tax-
es on the same farm are over the
hundred `dollar 'mark, and it takes a
_lot of ten cent eggs and butter and
three or four cent pork and beef to
make up a hundeed dollars. And if
the farmer does succeed, he certain-
ly has no money left to save, nor has
be any money to spend.
'Fifty years ago, too, a farmer
could borrow money at four per cent.
and. he could get all the labor he -
needed at less than a dollar a day,
attd part of that was board. To -day
be can not 'get money at any rate,
and the 'standard • of wages is such
that farm labor! is beyond the reach
of all -but' the very few.
'`''inoiley map be coined in the mint
at 'Ottawa and high tariffs may make
a few -,then rich, but real prosperity
eati have its birth no where else than
do the farm, and until our farmers
'can get a price for their farm' pro-
