Effective prohibition in any commun- ity is only possible when the majority of the people not only believe in it, but are willing to work for it.—The Sun, St. John, N. B. The Qnar erly Review of London bas collected some interesting statistics as to British investments abroad. It is esti. mated that the aggregate of British capital invested outside the British Is*ea is $3,150,000,000, representing the ac- cumulated savings of centuries. Of this sum nearly thirteen hundred million dollars are invested in Canada. ANAEMIA L. Borden, the leader of the Op. n {yAEM IA CURED Dr. Williams Pink Pills Bring Back TO ADVERTISERS THE CONSERVATIVE irEADER• s position in the house of Commons, has started on a campaign tour of Canada daring which he is to address meetings in all the Provinces. The first meeting of the tour was held at Halifax, when Mr, Borden indicated the policy which. the Conservative party is to place before the electors in the campaign now com- mencing, The Conservative plarform as enunciated by Mr, Borden is summarized as follows: Honest appropriation and expenditure of publio money. Provisions to panish bribery and frau d at eleotions. Pablieity as to expenditure by political organizations. Reformation of the laws relating to civil service. A reform in the mode of seleoting Senators, so as to make the Senate more usetnl. More careful selection of sources from dation.

Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all medicine dealers or may be had by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2 50 from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Out. The sacredness of contract has become to some people a light matterrand even municipalities sometimes come to the Legislature to be relieved of their obli- gations. Money may be scarce, butoon- fidence has also been shaken. Let the financial institutions and capitalists feel that their investments are protected by the best security, the honor of the public and the money stringency will soon be relieved, partially at least.—Brookville Recorder, The United States as a country is a very rich country, but its great wealth is centralized, not distributed among the masses of the people, who are, in a sense the hewers of wood and the drawers of water to the mniti•millionaires. The stupendous wealth accumulated, acquir- ed or stolen, as may be decided, by the few men repreeentiag the Standard Oil Company, has been made by the levy of an unrighteous toll upon every home in the land. The general distribution of wealth in a country is a true measure of popular pros?erity. —Pet arboro Exam- iner.

Results of Experiments with Autumn Sown Crops. The area used for sowing Wheat and other autumn crops was somewat greate r throughout Ontario in the fall of 190G than in that of 1935. At the Agrioultn- ral College this year Winter Wheat and Winter Rye have produced large yields of grain which is above the average in quality, but the Winter Barley and the Hairy Vetches hive Riven results some- what lower than those of 1906. Generally speaking, white wheats, as compared with red wheats; yield more grain per acre, possess stronger straw, weigh a little less per measured bushel, are slightly softer in th 9 grain, produce a more popular pastry floor, and furnish a somewhat weaker flour ,or bread pro- duction. Of the white wheats, Dawson's Ogden Chaff and other very similar varieties; such as, Abundance. Amerioan Banner, Beardless, Rural New Yorker No. 6, American Wonder, Superlative. Forty- fold, Prize Taker and Extra Early Wind- sor, and of the red wheats, Imperial A mbar, Paramount and Crimean Red have produced the highest yields of Brain per acre in the Collage experiments.

Guelph, Out , Aug. 22nd, 1907. General Superintendent Winter of the G. T. P. stated that the new line would carry grain this year to Portage la Prairie. Live Stook Markets. Toronto. Aug. 27—Tho run at the City Cattle Market today was 65 loads, with 750 head of cattle, 1,761 sheep and lambs, 400 hogs, and 165 calves. It was slow at the cattle market today. There was a light run and prices were from thie cause good and steady, consid- ering the general quality offering. There was the usual demand for a better class of butcher cattle, but for the present, there is a shortage in this class, a000rd- ing to the repeated statments of the local butchers, whose persistent complaint is that the right kind of cattle are not com- ing forward. Scant pasturage is given as the principal reason for the poorness of cattle now coming in. With the light run, however, there were some good prices paid for medium to good butcher cattle, and if there was any easiness any' where it was in the poorest class of cat- tle offering. Hogs are lower. The following are the quotations: Exporters' cattle— Per 100 lbs.
