it I large."
Respecting tbe duty on agricultural
h !implements, Canadian Farm expresves
be opinion that the greatly enlarged
market for farm products that will be
secured under the agreement will
more than snake up what the farmers
lose by not having the duty on farm
machinery removed altogether. This
journal says it would have added ,to
the value of the agreement to Cana-
dian farmers if a reduction of the
United States duty on wool had been
secured.
Altogether the agreement seems to
be a pretty good thing for the Cana-
dian fanner.
This journal points out that the On-
tario fruit -grower will have to meet
competition from the United States in
the Western market. On the other
hand, he will have access to the big
consuming centres of the Eastern
States. The Ontario market gardener
wilt he hit, and the placing of horses
on the free list will tend to cut off the
trade of Ontario horsebreeders with
Western Canada. "But it is ex-
tremely difficult," says Canadian
Farm, "to do anything in a big way in
advantage to agriculture generally,
and consequently to the country at
The agricultural journals of Ontario
alp plainly on the reciprocity Imes
Lion.
The Farmer's Advocate reviews the
history of the negotiations and +stye:
"There is no doubt whatever that in
this matter the Canadian Government
has public opinion mtrongly behind it,
and, the temper of the agricultural
community in particular is much an not
to tolerate any opposition or truckling
for political purposes. As for Presi-
dent Taft, his message to ('ongresem de-
notes a thoroughly magnanimous and
cobdiel attitude, even granting the
ideal and economic exigency be-
hind his motives. if Washington is
now ready to deal fairly and cordially
with Ottawa. Ottawa will discredt
herself and play false to Canadian in-
terests if she does not meet %Washing-
ton in tbe sane spirit. We are no
longer courtingor dependent upon the
United States, but we mar still neigh -
bore -neighbors who ran trade largely
to bamense mutual advantage."
The Advocate mentions the fact
that some of tbe tender -fruit -growers
are protesting, but helienen that. if
the agreement b• given a fair trial,
they will find it will fork but little or
nothing to their disadvantage, and
eunsiierably to the advantage of the
egbatl lner.
Miran and Dairy calls it "a victory
far the farmers." It helievee that the
agreement, if carried out, will benefit
Canadian agriculture immensely.

over the reciprocity proposals, the
Essex frult-growers are expressing
themselves as well astisfled with the
prospect of the opening of the United
State' market for their products. Of
course all the Niagara growers are not
taking part in the •'squeal," Some of
them admit that reciprocity, with the
opportunity of selling their fruit
net ome the border, is the best thing
that could happen for them.
The Kingston Standard (Couteerva-
tive) .tows not take any stock in the
argut, nt that reciprocity would lead
to ant' .,',tion. It points out that the
trade between ('aneda and the United
States today is lager than ever be-
fore, out of Canada's total import.. of
S37(1,000,000 the United States sending
us $221,a10,0oo. And yet despite the
growth of this trade "annexation sen-
t' •nt," The Standard points out, "is
today deader than the proverbial
doer -nail and snore and more we are
truly Canadlen and truly loyal to the
Mother Country. It is preposterous
to suppose that further trade growth
with the United States would have
any more influence or effect upon our
loyalty than has the growth in the
het teu or twelve years.'
The Montreal Star issues a full-page
"Appeal to Sir ,Wilfrid Laurier, the
One Man Who Can Save Canada."
Reading it one discovers that what
Canada is to be saved from is reciproc-
ity with the United States, and read-
ing a little farther one discovers that
a "trap" was laid at Washington for
the taanadian negotiators by offering
them such favorable terms that they
were surprised into accepting them.
Following a line of fantastic argu-
ment, the reader is shocked to find
that the breaking up of confederation,
annexation to the United States and
the destruction of all our national in-
stitutions are to follow the acceptance
of this favorable trade bargain. The
Star may see it that way, but it must
require a rather severe stretch of im-
agination. 'If a mar makes a dicker
with a jock -knife, he doesn't agree to
become a member of the other fel-
low's family, or vote the other fellow's
politics, or join the other fellow's
church. He sells the jack-knife and
pocket» the money -that's all. And
Canadians can sell their cattle and
eggs and butter rand apples for export
to the United States to the millions of
dollars worth without parting with
one jot of their political independ-
ence.
