If (hat we e all it would mean very little because a very large majority of men and women of today, know corns paralive little about the cultivation and care of flowers and Shrubs. Therefore there is very little use iu making an in- vestnlent in the, floral line unless we know how such flowers and shrubs FhouId be cultivated and treated in order to gr t the It )est resu ts, otherwise our planting is more or less n( ant xperiment all the time and very often ends in disaster and disap- point ment. Now, in order to eliminate to a very large extent our experimenlieg and diss• appointments the horticultural societies have come into being and it is a means through which the genteel public at larce can receive the benefit of the experience of those who have made this work a life long study. Information from this source puts • us in a more favorable position to not only- obtain better results from our planting but to very often do so at .ess trouble and expanse. '1'o become a member of any horticnl- tural society m-ans very little to us or to the society unless our main objective is to make use of the means put at uric disposal to get all the information we may require in regard to any certain flower or shrub and ill .t such knowledge wi I put into practice nat only for our sole benefit but for the benefit of others as 'well. This is one 'of the ways to learn obout flowers. Tell what you know to others. In the interest of horticultural societies there are only a few publications both in vegetable and (lural lines which can be obtained every month at a very small sum and which gives a lot of very valu- able infordtation as to the cultivation and treatment of flowers.

Box 203, Milverton' An Open Letter A BRITTISII CHALLENGE Dear Mr. Editor: it is far from my thought to enter Into any n:wspaper controversy. However, the electors of North Iluron are asking, an•) have a right to ask that the issues of the day be presented openly, and nut re- tailed priv.,tely with a different message to each voter, 1 therefore registered to my opponent the following letter, and, as us- ual, be, f.rr reasons best known to Limself, has completely ignored it and made no re- ply. Nothing then remains, but, to make it an ',pen letter to the press, Wingham, Mr. J. W. King, Ex. M. P., I3lucvale Ont. Dear Mr King: - You will recollect that at the beginning of the 1021 campaign. I wrote you and Mr. Fraser, suggesting that we hold joint meetings throughout the Riding. Mr. Fraser accepted. but you either. declined or ignored my request. Afterwards it was commonly reported that the reason that Mr. King did not agree was that he thought Spot ton might be abusive on the platform. This of course was a mere subterfuge. because it was well known that in my -twenty five years campaigning that the various Liberals whom I had met upon the platform throuhout the province were life long friends thereafter, Of course the great historic Liberal ('arty had traditions of which it was truly proud, and a policy on which it stood; therefore they had something to present to the electors,. • Now Mr. King,'if the Progressive party has a policy which -can be, ubbelys pro. claimed and not merely peddled private. 1 would again respectively request you to hold joint meetings with me. Mr. Fraser and 1 went into the last campaign friends, and we came out of it friends. You made many promises to the electors four years ago and I would be glad to be with you when you tell them how you kept those promises or attempted to keep them. We can both lay our political gonds on the table in the varions halls in North Huron and let the peop'e take their choice This will do away with a whispering cam• paien! I will be glad to leave the dates and places of meetings with you so that you can arrange everything to suit your- self If you wish to have any other speak er with you I will have no objections. This has always appeared to me to be a manly and economical way of campaign- ing. For any further details about these arrangements, I would he glad to meet you any where and any time.

What are the Facts? 31 ROBABLY no part of the business of farming is lass under- stood and less appreciated than the value of the home market to the average Canadian fanner of to -day. First and foremost, given a Govcrr meat that is sympathetic with you, the home market is one that you can cabsohi i;ely con- trol, at all times. at lea;:t against the foreign farmer t. ho would invade it. On the other hand, the foreign market ir, one that you may be leg,isl;."ed out of at ary moment by the vol.? of a foreign government that has decided that it wants to give its 0\V11 fr..rmcrs an advantage over yea! Ne:{t, the market that .s hist %vcrth culti.'ating is a:ways the market that absorbs the largest part cf your pre duction. The fellow who year after year buys more than half ye ur crop is worth more to you than the fellow who only buys 2:; 3 of it. That's fileriamental ! There's no getting away from it! From•..le figures below we prove absolutely that the hc;re market absorbs at the •very least 63 ! . • of the r ro(l.uce-- • nct ,sf the Ontario farmer --but of the average Canac`.in t farmer, Including the wheat farmer of the West. If we were tc leave the 'Western wheat farmer out of it, it could be proved that over 80% of what the Ontario farmer produces is consumed by this home market, The reason some people have an exaggerated idea of the im= portance of the export market for farm produce is that they have looked at it solely from the standpoint of wheat! It is true that we export 'n one form or another about 75 per cent of our entire whcat crop. But the wheat crop, important and all as it is, re- preyonly about one-fourth of our total annual agricultural production, and it is only when we take into account what be- comes of tile other three-fourths that we can arrive at a true es- timate of the value of the home market to the average Canadian farmer! Here is our calculation. Check up our figures from the Canada Year Book, the official statistical publication issued by the Gov- ernment. Subject our deductions to the most searching investi- gation and you will find that if we have erred at all, we have under -estimated, rather than over-estimated the importance of the farmer's home market.

Deduct- ing the grand total exports, e.s above of $189,094,12.4, leaves a balance of $853,037,876 to represent what must have been consumed Ey the Dome market. In other words, the export market took only 36A% of our tarm production. The Lala':ce, C3! <, was consumed in Canada! TWO THIRDS OF WHAT THE CANADIAN FARMER RAISES, HE SELLS IN CANADA Export Prices that Fail to Govern Hone Price3. In attempts to belittle the home market, the argument has been used over ar.d ever again that the prices obtainable in the export market always govcrn the vices obtainable in the ckmestic nlarl.�t. Statements of that kind ccnstitutc Or» of the meanest fors ;s c;f dislicnecty. It is probably true that, in the E.lrence r f an effective wheat pcol, the Livrrpce I price pretty nearly fixes the dcniesfie price of wheat. But the Liverpcol teri of hay, or of potatoes, is ahncst nes :til lc in its effect upon, the local prices cbt&in :,h'.e for those commodities in Canada. And the reason for the difference ia that v,hec.t, besides being a ccmmcdity that can 1 stored indefinitely, has been prcvidcd with terminal e'acilities that enable it to be handled cac a minimum of,erpcnse, and i3 carried at the lowest of all freight rate,, whereas transportation costs on hay and potatoes substantially protect the. pro- ducer against surpluses only a hundred miles away! Hay and Potatoes for Instance. In 1923, for instance, farmers in Nor- folk County received an average cf only 811/3 cents a bushel for their potatoes, while farmers in Welland Ccunty, less 3 than fifty miles away, received $1.00 fcr heirs. In that same year farmers in Perth County received an average of only 49.28 tcn for their hay, while farmers in he edjoining County of Middlesex re- ceived $11.05 fcr theirs. Lis eat the illustrations as much as ycu 1 'ce cr, the ground that differences of 4tl:lli' ' had something to do with the difit a nets in price, yet do they, not serve to sl; -kc your faith in the man v l :Q would have yeti, believe that Liverpocl prices c.lva7- ; govern domestic prices? Did Thun- der i. I,y forme's, fcr instance, get $19.64 fcr 11L•Lir hay in 1923 b;rcause it was of snrh :;apericr quality, cr did they get it because. of the high cost of bringing $8.98 hay ;'rem Hurcn Ccunty, cr $10:11 hay frcm Lambton County? If Liverpool • priced gc+v.rned hay in the way and for the an ; e reaa,n3 that they do wheat, Ontario farzry :•s r: ouid have to pay shippers a premium to take their hay away! Wit:c:¢','l Sauce for the Goose is Sauce for the Gander. 13el:.t:tlers cf the home market assert that a tariff on farm products is of no benefit to oui.' farmers. Is the United States tariff on fan products of no benefit to United tate a farmers? Is it no detriment to Cyan^.dial farmers?,If a fcrcign t::triff is a detei::ieirt to Canadin farmers, why should not a Canadian tariff be a detriment to foreign farmers and consequently a benefit to our own? What a New Industry, in your Market Town, Means to You! 4 It increases the prosperity of the town, gives work to the unemployei, adds to the population, gets the empty houses rented and starts the build- ing of new ones. The town immediately has more money to spend cn the butter and eggs, the vegetables, fruit,' milk avd grain your farm produces. The foreign market is admittedly an important market, but after all what does it consist of? Isn't it made up entirely of town and city dwellers--- wage-earners--who cannot obtain from their own farmers as much food as they require so they must buy from you.? Is the city dweller an asset to the Canadian farmer only when he happens to dwell in a foreign city? If we persuaded him, by the offer cf a better job tha:i he now has, to come and live in Canada, would he not be a bigger asset •to our fanner than he is at present ? Those who scoff at the home market would en• courage those dwellers in a foreign city to stay where they are, thus leaving our farmers in the position where they must take a chance on ship- ping their products long distances, and then selling them in competition with other producers from all over the world! Isn't the plan of those who would build up the ho: ne market a vastly better one? A higher tariff will give more workers good jobs in this country. Canadian workmen with good jobs are the beat customers the the Canadian farmer will ever have. 1 FOR HIGHER TARIFF AND FOR LOWER TAXATION • The Tongue of Or. The tongue of Oc, language of the auclent settlers of the Southwest of Prance and still apoken by hundreds of thousands of natives, in seven de- partments to the exclusion of French, is to ho taught in French schools as part of the regular curriculum, Ten years ago, however, its use was for- bidden in the schools, with the result tliat ware children are now unable to speak properly with their own parents, who know no French. The nJw rule is to correct this situation. The tongue of Oc has no word of Drench In it, In sound and In pro- uttnelation• It approximates more closely the Spanish, and some of the words 'are of Spanish origin.

LiFE ASSN POLICY Uo1• OJCftVNMOL General Agent, 8, 1925 The most urgent requirement in Canada's Agricultural Products ANADA produces every year 1 trge quantities of wheat, oats, barley, butter, cheese, bacon, beef, eggs, apples, potatoes, grass seed and clover seed ('Oat she cannot consunl.:. Her natural outlet for these pro- ducts k, of t..ourse, Great Britain—the one great consuming country of the world with an open market, linfortul.atcly, nearly every other country wish any surplus of food products scans to want to send its surplus to illi same market. The l::!cnness of the competition on this, our only market, and the enerf;y and resourcefulness of our competitors began to impress them- selves upon the Department of Agriculture some time ago, but it is only within very recent years that the real and only way to grapple with this problem has been discovered, or nt lent put into effect, This Department now believes, as do also Inst of the farmers of this country, that the "grading" of our agricultural products is the policy and practice that is seeing us through the struggle and will assure us of our rightful place on the Britich market. "Gradill!;‘," means the classifying of products, whether they be hog(;, but- ter, cher::e, eggs or anything else, into what might be cc'led i m a general way "BEST", "G©t:'D", "FAIR" and "POOR" classes, These exact words are not used in describing the grades, but that is what is incant. The purpose served in grad- ing is threefold -- (1) t',CdU!Cationi.11. When the pro- ducer secs the relative quality of his product !te is spurted on to maintain that quality if it is the "best" or to improve the quality where necessary. (2) Fair Play. When products are not graded the inferior article for various reasons often brings as mdch as the superior article, and the credit and advantage of putting the superior pro- duct on the market is lost to the one who really deserves it. (3) Facilitating Trade. The dealer learns to have confidence in the article he is buying and buys more free- ly, because it is guaranteed by grading, and gradually everybody gets to know what the "test" article really looks like or tastes like. In short, grading brings about standardization and ensures to the producer the best price, Canada now grades her cereals, grass seeds, hay, potatoes, apples, eggs, hut - ter, cheese, wool and bacon hogs. The results have been in every case bene- ficial and in some casts quite markedly so, even though the grading system has been in cffect in some cases for only two or three years, thus:- Cheese—Grading began April lst, 1923, Canadian cheese the year before had fallen into such disfavour on the 13ritish market that New Zealand cheese was quite commonly preferred, Today Canadian cheese commands cents per pound higher than New Zealand, Butter—Grading began same time as for cheese. The reputation of our but- ter was then indeed at low ebb. Canadian butter today, while not the best on the market, is rapidly improving in quality and gaining in reputation, Hogs—Over two years ago the De- partment of Agriculture began to grade live hogs al the packing houses and stock yards, The 10% premium paid by the packers for'"select" bacon hogs as against " thick smooths"has classed by departmental graders has done wonders to improve the quality of our hogs and develop the bacon industry. Best Canadian bacon, which ordinar- ily was quoted two years ago from 10 to 18 shillings a long hundredweight below Danish, has gradually grown in the esti- mation of the British wholesale buyer eatil it is now quoted at only from 1 or less to at most 5 or 6 shillings per long hundredweight below the best Danish. This improvement in price is, of course, due to quality and has come about very gradually, the spread nar- rowing down by a shilling or two a month until now it is not at all a rare occurrence to see best Canadian selling . on a par with the Danish article. Eggs—Canada was the; first country to grade and standardize eggs. These grades and standards apply not only to export, interprovincial and import ship- ments, but also to domestic trading. The basis is interior quality, clean- ness and weight, Standardizing Canadian eggs leas established confidence between producer and consumer and between exporter and British importer, and has resulted in a greatly -increased demand for the Cana- dian egg both at home and abroad. Other products might be mentioned where grading has worked to the great advantage of the producer and to the advancement of Canadian agriculture. Already Great Britain recognized our store cattle, wheat, cheese, eggs, apples and oats. as the best she' can buy. It is for us to so improve our other products, particularly our butter and bacon, as to bring them also into this list of "the best on the British market" and consequently the highest priced. Grading enabled us tb do this for cheese, wheat, eggs and apples. Grading is helping us to do it for butter and bacon. Quality Counts Quality is thus the first objective for the Canadian export trade, and, then steady, regular supply.

In the first attempts to make a photograph in the early part of the eighteenth century, the subject to be photographed sat between the source of light and a sheet of sensitized paper fastened on a board. Ilia sha- dow blocked off a certain proportion of the light rays, and as a result his profile in silhouette was left on the paper. This image, however, Laded in a few minutes, Even fifty years ago, taking a sin- gle picture was often a day's work, and required such skill and expert knowledge and such elaborate, costly, and cumbersome equipment that the few who had mastered the art were glad to capitalize their knowledge by utilizing it professionally, The earliest sunlight picture of a human face is supposed to be a daguerreotype of Mise Dorothy Dra- per, and was taken by her brother, Prof. Draper, in 1840. The subject had to sit motionless in bright sun- light for about six minutes, Whore Is 0?

Twenty-threo steers, averaging in weight 1,146.6 pounds, were fed for 113 days, leaking a daily gain of 1,04 pounds or 219 pounds per steer. Tlio total gain for the twenty-three stead was 6,046 pounds made at at cost of 8.15 cents per pound. These steers were fed in an open shed and yard. Silage and grain were fed in a manger running the full length of the shed and handy to the silo and feed room. The rough - ago composed at cornstalks and straw was fed in the yard. The grain feed- ing consisted of a mixture of corn, barley, oats, oil meal, and Boy bean meal. The Soy bean meal was start- ed in very small amount and grad- ually increased in the ration to one pound per, day. The total grain ra- tion at the commencement of the trial was two pounds per day, thine was increased gradually to eight pounds per day near the close of the feeding period. Tho steers co4astpmed a total of , 46 '4 tons of silage; ten loads of 'oorn fodder and grain valued at $281.16 market price. The total feed coat, valuing silage at $3.00 per ton and, fodder at 310,00 per load, was 3411.69. Tho spread between purchase price and sellingprige was 31.25 per hun- dred pounds live weight„ The gain over cost of steers and, feed was $176,39.

Indigestion, for instanee, is characterized by pains in the stomach, and often about the heart; rheuma- tism by sharp pains in the limbs and joints; headaches nre a sign that the servos oa' stomach are out of order, In Home ailments, such as anaetnlu, pain Is not so prominent. in this case Nature's wau•ning takes the form of pallor, breathlessness after slight ex- ertion, palpitation of the heart, and loss of appetite. Whatever form these warnings take, wise people will not ignore the fact that many diseases have their origin in poor blood, and that when the blood is enriched the trouble disappeara. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are most helpful In, such cases because they purify and build up the blood to its normal strength.

' Records prove, however, that in it great many lustances this family name 1 is not from English but from Dutch sources. `And in this case it repro - scuts a shcyl'tnod form of the Dutch word "waudelaar," which signified literally an "walker," figuratively and more generally, a traveler, or one who ha.s been a traveler, In this 0(180 lite original descriptive form of the sur- name ,would have been "De \Vanda, Mari" But don't confurre this "de," with the Norman-French "de," which meant "of' and was a development from the Latin- "'de," meaning "frons."
