In order that there -may be temptation,
the one tempted must have the power

concern to those engaged, in the fruit -
growing industry throughout the coun-
try the third Dominion conference of
fruit-growere came to a eloSe in St. Pat-
rich's Hall this afternoon.
The chief resolutions passed were sub-
stantially as follows;
That a board of three fruit dealers
in eaeh'Province be formed as a com-
rnittee to advise in the appOintment of
inspectors; that $10,000 be voted by
the Government as a grant to the next
National Apple Show, provided that the
promoters of that show are willing to
offer $20.000; that the Government be
requested to raise the tariff on peaclites;
that an apple box with a capacity of
2,200 oubic inches be made the legal
standard throughout Canada, to come in
to effect within two years; that the
question of most suitable shapes for
fruit packages be left over to the next
conference, with the underetanding that
in the meantime an investigation shall
be made, preferably by the Government;
that certificates be given by fruit in-
spectors on the paymeut of a reason-
able fee; that the Government be urged
to inspect as much as possible at the
point of shipment, and that the Govern-
ment have daily market priees cabled
from agents in Europe -during the ship-
ping seasons and published in the daily
papers througrout Canada.
Two standards for the apple barrel
were adopted by the conference. One

ution asking an increase in the tariff on
peaches, Iron. Martin Burrell, Minister
of Agrinelture, said the Government
bad appointed it tariff connnission for

ditions pertaining to the tariff. He did
not think tariff revision would be taken
up pieeemeal until the report of the cont.
mission on conditions as a wnole had
been presented.

A MODERN MEDICINE
FOR THE BABY
What mother cannot remember the
times of her childhood when the castor
oil bottle was brought into ite:e---the
dread with which she looked forward to
a. dose of ite-the fight she put up when
forced to take it. Surely all mothers
will be glad to spare their little ones
this diteeoutfort-nhis dread. Modern
science lues banished the bad -smelling,
evintasting, griping castor oil and given
in its pisee a modern remedy -a remedy
pleasant to take, mild, though thorough
in ackion, absolutely harmless and
something the little ono won't dread.
That medicine is Bailey's Own Tablets -
the only medieine used hy thousands of
mothers of little ones -the medicine
that has forced costar oil and "soothing"
iayrups out of the home and bee taken
their place to bring health to baby and
joy to the parents. The Tablets are
sold by rhediaine dealers or by nutil at
25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams
