Without the demand from this 'Joke," however, the vast proportion, of the Canadian crops would be lefton the farmers" hands each year. The official GovernmentLreturna of the erops of Canada in 190, the iatest year given in the Canada Year Book, were as follows: Quantity, bushels. Value Wheat Oats 166,744,000 8141,320,000 353,466,000 182,890,000 Barley 55,398,000 86,484,009 • These are the three big crops which can • be most readily shipiped, most cheaply handled by railways, and are Most in general demand everywhere. Government returns show that during the Year in question Canada exported: Quantity, bushels.

Thus, or 8289,000,000 of Canada's largest and most easily shipped erops, the whole outside world took less than $85,000,A0 worth'. The home market consumbli over two hundred and, four million dollars' worth more than we solder. all tbe restof the world. Now let us look at the conditions as to root crops: The official returns for 1909 give the yield of the Canadian farms to have been; Quantite, bushels. Value.. Potatoes 99,087,20.0 336,399,000 Turn I ps 107,724,600 18,197,500 Of thisswe sold abroad as follows: Potatoes 1,560,632• 0919,189 Turnips • 1,026,776 150,448 The home market consumed $53,- 500,000 •worth, and the rest .of the world bought $1,069,637 worth of our principal root crop, suck as is used In - every home. Hay is another of our big crops, and one which is always in demand. In 1909, Canada raised 11,877,100 tons, valued at $131,644,000 worth, while the rest of the world bought from us 55,- 884 tons, or something over $600,000 worth, What about live stock? The official returns show that Canada had, in 1909, $278,789,000 worth of horses and ex- ported $367,256 worth. Indeed, we eaported $a41,767 worth. Our horned :•attle, other than milch cows, in 1909, were, valued. at $126,326,000. - Statistics .of •certain industries of Canada were taken officially in 1906.. The figures are instructive. In alaughtering and meat packing, and slaughtering without packing, the pro- duction was something over $29,000,- 000. •Our total export of meats of all kinds that year was only a shade over $2,000,000, and this included poultry and game. In 1909, we aced to the. whole world outside of Canada only; $1,900,000 worth of naeats. •,Thsis, it' will be seen, something of honvimporS The human body is.the greatest nia- •t ehine ever produced—the most wonder' ful mechanism in the World • • • t ant our home meat market is, and how dangerous it would bo to allow it o be destroyed, It is sheer economic waste not to keep • • your body in the hest condition. • There is no valil excuse for allowing the tissues to become attacked ISYs the white plague You need your health and Canada needs you.

The complaint that the Americalit • farmers would suffer by the agree- znent, when analyzed would, be found, to be an argument that the admission of Canadian wheat free of duty would • lower the price of wheat raised in the United States ten cent! a buabel. "The reamer to this argument," President Taft said, "is that this cans not be, for the reason that the price ot wheat in the United States. and Can a,da is ultimately fixed by the price of wheat in the world. and that the world's prices are adjuated and Made at Liverpool by the relation ot the supply et the exported wheat to the !demand for it by countries Which de friot raise enough to sup -ply their • people. • "The diversion from British and! aUrOpean markets to 'United States markets of 20 to 40 million bushels of) • Canadian wheat annually would not Indy strengthen the wheat market abroad, but would furnish the Anse* • een mills with a needed complement ref wheat which the world would re- quire, just as it has in the past, but it would then be in the shape of Amer': can -made flour, The effect of in- creased wheat supplies would be to re- duce the cost of manufacturing flour In just the ratio that the mills were late to thereby increase their output.

T .polity of maintaining agriculture, a well as manufacturing, els the ,princi, •!pal meads of subsistence, is making 'Germany a strong nation and one to be feared in the world's markets, While Germany has made treaties • with certain favored IlatiConfi.' it is no, diceable that they have not opened the ;door to many countries which' have;. ;any considerable export of cereals td that country. In German polities, there is a strong agrarian party op, posed to such treaties, in so far ae they apply to agIcsuirral products, n • Russia has long been a type of ex, treme; protection. The old Illerealb .•tiliSt point of. view was closely allied with protectionism, as shown in the Act of 1823. The liberalizing, forces ,prevailing about 1850 produced, almost th impression upon the tariff system of 'Russia.

Abundance of pasture lands makes stock raising profitable. • • According to the press of the West-: ern Statess free trade In natural prosi ducts with Canada will mean a fin4. market for the farmers of lvlinnesobq and North Dakota, A prominent pa: per in St. Paul says: Hay is almost invariably higher in Canada than in this country. • Last year we shipped 7,680 tons of bay to. Canada. We sold Canada 215,000 bushels of potatoes; 60,000 bushels of; •apples; .215,000 pounds of cheese;1 750,000 dozen eggs, and a vast quan-; tity of other' vegetables and fruitas Canada's purchases of fresh vegetae hies from us last year alone amounted to .$625,000. The removal of existing duties on these products will make a big market in Western Canada for Minnesota, Dakota and other North- western States in vegetables, fruits. and dairy products. Ontario now sup- plies Western Canada with these pro- ducts, but they can' be advantageously obtained from the United States, • GIANTISM A DISEASE • Few. Giants Live Longer Than Twenty- • Three Years • _re a lecture on "Giants and Pygs mime" at the Royal institution, Pro- fessor Arthur Keith referred to the disease of giantism, called croame- • dalY, in which the forehead, nose, and jaws became larger, and the hands and feetbecame rough and larger. Very few giants lived longer than twenty-three yeers. • There was no such thing as a gjarit race, and a man . of over seven feet was a diseased pro- duct, and not a giant.- He had heard recently of a Guardsman, only eigh- teen years of age, who Was six feet eight inchea, and growing rapidly. In (hat case, no doubt, they had a real ;Sant. The problem of growth was atost marvellous, and he held out • lopes that science might not only add :o sfatiire, but the time might :tome when a dector would be able 'to make• a nose grow to any desired shape. . in a vain attempt that work is being done. Foie instance, the latest State to move In. the matter of taking care of its important timber interests, Ala- bama (whose annual lumber output is valued at $5,000,000), appropriates $500 for carrying out the prOvisions of the act, providing a commission with various duties. The great State of Minnesota wnose forest products in one year approach in value $45,000,- 000, devotes less than $12,000 to its forest interests and $20,000 on prairie planting. The State of Maine, which still cuts around one billion, feet, and is indebted to the fewest for a product -of $18,000,000 in value, keeps within the modest sum of $25,000 to pay for 'the protection. against fire and. the support of a commissioners Exam- yles of such picayune and inadequate ilmsteaatseus.res are found in many other The Only two States svhfch. have net ihesitated to spend money for forestry ,purposes are New York and PennElye yenta.
