(Read this from ti.c Farmers' Sun)
It .is 'quite, possible that there n;ty
be some temporary advantage,to Can-
'adian dairymen in , certain sections
of the. country when the' tariff again-
st .Em.pire,' butter is raised to four
cents a pound.- Eventually, however,
producers will, lose more than• they
will gain by the bargain,' although the
subleties Of the tariff .are sure that
proof thereof may, not .quickly be ap-
parent.. While there 'is .no evidence
that Ontario Fa: 'hers were ' beguiled
by the protectionist argument with,
' respect)to the tariff ,on butte!,. the
election results • indicate 'that in many
parts of Quebec the bait is swollo'wed,.
