MISLEADING THE FARMER.
Farmers who read The Weekly Sun
and other pzo reciprocity papa's
should, beware of the misleading use
of figures and schedules made in pre-
senting the reciprocity case. For ex-
ample, The Weekly Sun 'heads a USE
of changes, "Where the farmer
Stands to Gain in Buying." The list
at a glance shows such items as "On
bindery from 174 per cent, to 15 per
cent, ; on horse rakes, from 20 per
cent, to 15 per cent. ; belie and gongs,
30 per Dent. to 271 per cent.,
Many are persuaded that recipro-
city will bring about what these fig-
ures appear to promise, and will be
surprised to learn that the cut in
each case is not from 20 to 15 per cent.,
or from 30 to 27a per cent., but merely
5 per ceut. or 24 per cent„ as the ease
may be, the duty being reduced, not
the cut being made in prices, from 30
to 271. If the farmer thinks he is
going to get a cut of 15 or 20 per cent.
on implement prices he is simply
trialed.

HINTS ON THE CPU OF CULTD'IIE
Well to Ilave a Special Box to Keep
Mother Culture In.
It is well to have a special box in
which to keep the mother culture.
Thisbox should be well insulated in
order that a uniform temperature may
be maintained. Such a box can be.
made by anyone, and will he found to
be invaluable in maintaining a uni-
form temperature. The atmosphere
in the make room often varies 30 or
40 degrees or more in 20 hours. Under
such conditions unless protected in an
insulated box, there can be little hope
of having a uniform culture Prole day
to day. If the temperature of the cul-
ture one day le at 90 and the next
day at 70 or below, one might do his
best with the culture and get very
indifferent results.
One needs to use much judgment
as to what is likely to take place un-
der varying conditions; find out how
much the culture does change, and
then "set" accordingly. With milk or
cream at a high temperature, set
more sparingly, at a low temperature
set more heavily once having found
the right method, stick to it. Do
not change from day to day.
If the culture goes wrong, get a
fresh one. It is practically impos-
b
1 le to bring it back by setting less•
s
at least, such a practice is unsatis-
factory, and is not to be recommend-
ed. If ouE could keep a culture for
long periods, set more lightly and
maintain the temperature about five
degrees lower. It is not well to place
it on the ice save in the case of it
being too ripe late on in tho day,
5 i and one was not yet ready to use it.
103 In our cream gathering creameries,
33 our greatest trouble comes through
83 thick cream delivered in an over -ripe
37 condition and in being unable to keep
33 ripe culture and have the proper
31 «favor from day to day.
BABY'S TERRIBLE ECZEMA.
Hands Tied To Prevent
Scratching.
Five Doctors' Failed To Relieve,
But Zam-Buk Worked
A Cure.
Mrs. Chas. Levere of Prescott, North
Channel, Ont., tells how Zam-Buk
cured her baby. She says : "My baby's
head and face was one complete mass
of sores, The itching and irritation
were fearful, and the little one's
blight was so serious that one time
we feared her ears would be eaten off
by the disease.
"We had to keep her hands tied for
days to prevent her rubbing and
scratching the sores. Doctor after doc-
tor treated her in vain. until we had
had five doctors. They all agreed it
was a frightful case of eczema, bat
none of them did any permanent
good. .
As a Last resource ,we were advised
to try Zara-Buk. The first box did so
much good that we felt sure we were
at last working in the right direction.
We persevered with the treatment un-
til we had used thirteen boxes, had at
the end of that time I am glad to say
Zam-Buk had Effected a complete
core."
For eczema, eruptions, rashes, tet-
ter, itch, ringworm and similar skin
diseases, Zam-Buk is without equal.
It also cures cuts, burns, scalds, biles,
scalds, piles, abscesses, chronic sores,
blood poison, etc. All druggists and
stores at 50c a box, or post free for
price from Zam-Buk Co., Toronto.
Refuse imitations.

WREN THE HORSE GROWS OLD.
Some horses never seem to grow
old, but are able to perform much
work up to the age of twenty-five
years, declares a writer in the Amer-
ican Cultivator. With proper care and
treatment the old horse is able to stand
a great deal of work and for light
work is worth just as much as a
much younger animal. If offered for
sale, of course the old horse will not
bring a very large price.
But if horses are to be serviceable
until a good old age they' must re-
ceive the very best of care and treat-
ment at all times. They must not be
neglected at any time, whether work-
ing or idle.
The old 'horse does not always get
proper attention in regard to feed.
He cannot masticate some kinds of
food, especially corn, thoroughly, nor
can he eat his ration in as short a
time as can a young animal whose
teeth are - sound. So unless some
ground grain is provided for him and
he is given sufficient time to eat -his
meals when being worked, ho will fall
to get the full benefit of his food and
in a short time will begin to lose flesh
and strength.-
When
trength:When the horse begins to grow old
give him just as good care as you
did when he was young, and he will
more than pay for his feed and care
by the work which he can perform.
RATION FOR GROWING PIGS
It is impossible for any one to say
what is the best ration for growing
pigs The feeding capacity of one dif-
fers from another. We have been
feeding for years, yet are all the
time looking and anticipating some
way to produce better results, writes
a farmer. Sometimes we think we
are feeding more grain than neces-
sary; then again we think we are not
feeding enough. As a rule, more pigs
are underfed than overfed. We find a
good ration for developing youngsters
is five pounds of 0, P. oilmeal, ten
pounds of wheat bran or middings,
fifteen pounds of cornmeal and one
pound of salt well mixed in a barrel
with milk and warm water, feeding
all they will eat up clean morning
and night. If you have apples, cab-
bage or roots feed them at noon.
After they have eaters their evening
slop feed them one pound of corn to
each pound of live weight of pigs.
Ground wheat, barley or oats an be
substituted for a portion of the bran
and middlings if desired.

i` LET LAURIER
FINISH HIS WORK.
The Grand Trunk Pacific Scheme le a
Direct Result of the Abandon-
ment of Reciprocity
•r;,
ne JOHN v, BONNE. a 4
Always when a country adopts a
new and definite line of policy, some
Special, tremendous work is under-
taken, which embodies that policy and
becomes its, monument. That is as
Inevitable ria that day should follow
night, It nfay be undertaken by mem-
bers of the community, whose efforts
may coalesce in several enterprises, or
the Government itself may launch
some scheme in the name of the coun-
try.
Canada furnishes two outstanding
examples of this. The logical outcome
of Confederation was an ocean -to -
ocean Canada, The logical necessity
of an ocean -to -ocean Canada was an
ocean -to -ocean railway. The Canadian
Pacific had to be, It was first under-
taken by the Government, and was
then committed to private hands, with.
Government assistance.
When the abandonment of the Re-
ciprocity idea was so quickly succeed-
ed by a marvelous expansion of busi-
ness, and, as Sir Wilfrid Laurier said,
"We now'but all our hopes upon the
British trade," the policy of fiscal in-
dependence had its sequel in a vast
engine designed to establish that in-
dependence—the National Transconti-
nental Railway—which is to be oper-
ated by the Grand Trunk Pacific Rail-
way, to which the backing of the pub-
lic treasury was liberally given.
The general election of 1904 was
fought on the wisdom of the Grand
Trunk Pacific and National Trans-
continental bargain, which was the
Government's method of carrying to
its logical end the repeal of the Reci-
procity offer, and of implementing the
Premier's announcement to the Im-
perial Conference, that Canada was
devoted to East -and -West trade.
The election was won by the Gov-
ernment, and the railway was begun.
In 1908 the Government went to the
country again—not on the wisdom of
the bargain, but on 'the necessity of
completing the job. "Let Laurier
finish his work," was the victorious
slogan.
The work is not finished. Another

BEWARE THE COMPETITOR
:Sir Wilfrid Said, "Heaven Grant That
1 It Be Not Already Too Late"
By JOHN V. BORNE.
A great deal has'been said for and
against the contention that in making
,a reciprocity agreement without con-
sulting the people the Dominion Gov-
ernment reversed its established pol-
icy.
Those who say the Liberal party
was always committed to Reciprocity,
forget that the transcontinental rail-
way policy was based on the aban-
donment of reciprocity, and that the
general election of 1904, won by the
Government, was the strongest en-
dorsement of the abandonment .of Re-
ciprocity the country could give; for
it authorized the Government to spend
large sums of money to make new
'channels of East and West trade,
whidh Reciprocity would have ren-
dered unnecessary.
Listen to the Prime Minister justi-
fying the great scheme:—
` A railway to extend from the shores
tot the Atlantic Ocean to the shores of
the Pacific Ocean, and to be, every inch
.of it, on Canadian soil, is a natidnal
as a well as a commercial necessity.
That such a road must be built, that it
is, in the language which I have used,
a national and a commercial necessity,
that it Is a corollary of our status as
a nation, that it is a requisite of our
commercial develoment, is a proposi-
tion to which, up to this moment, I
have heard no dissent. . . •
We consider that it is the duty of all
those who sit within these walls by
the will of the people, to provide im-
mediate means whereby the products
of those new settlers may find an exit
to the ocean at the least possible cost,
and whereby; likewise, a market may
be found in this new region for those
who toil in the forests, in the fields, in
the mines, in the shops of the old Pro-
vinces. Such is our duty: it is imme-
diate and imperative. It is not for to-
morrow, but of,this day, of this hour,
and ofthis minute. Heaven grant that
it be not already too late; heaven
grant that whilst we tarry and dispute
the trade of Canada is not deviated to
other channels ,and that an ever vigi-
lant competitor does not take to him-
self the trade that properly belongs to
those who acknowledge Canada as
their native or their adopted land. . .

ltlrIMINI
CANADA'S INDEPENDENCE
The Finance Minister Would Have
Built a Third Transcontinental
to Emphasize It
By JOHN V. BORNE.
Though the Prime Minister always
speaks for the Government, great im-
portance attaches to the deelaratiotis
of their Ministers: and, where big ex-
penditures aro concerned, especially
,to the Minister of Finance, Me. Field-
ing.
In turning from the United States
Mr. Fielding was as thoroughgoing as
this Chief. He told the House of Com-
,>atons:
It Is desirable that we should gilt°
our American brethren to understand
.that Canada is resolved to work Out
her independence in these things, that
the Present proposal will promote this
object, and that even if still another
railway should be necessary we shall
be prepared to construct it. The atti-
tude that the Government has taken
upon this subject. has already
attracted touch attention across the
'border, and there is a much keener
eppreclation of Canada's independence
than ever before.
s, You v{III at once be struck by the
clearness of the .allusion to the de-
sirability of achieving independence
of the United States. Why should
there be this persistent appearance of
the United States in the speeches of
Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Mr. Fielding,
insisting upon the building of a rail-
way that was not to approach the.
United States border line? Thera
was no proposal to build, the lino
north and south instead et east and'
west.
It could only be because some cone
dition that formerly affected the re-
lations of Canada with the United'
States had undergone a change. What{
was it? You may search the records'
of the times in vain for the slightest,
proof that there had been any ques-:
tion between the two countries which;
could be a factor in Canada's embarka-
tion on a vast commercial enterprise„
except one—and that was the ques
tion of reciprocity.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier had led the Lib-
erals who in 1891 desired unrestricted
reciprocity. Mr. Fielding when Pre-
mier of Nova Scotia had kept an open.
door for his Province's withdrawal
from Confederation, because it was
thought better to trade with the
United States than with the rest of
Canada. Especially to them, there-
fore, the new transcontinental railway
scheme was a confirmation of the
abandonment of the reciprocal idea;
and their assertion of the Fiscal Inde-
pendence of Canada was consequently
all the more definite and clearcut.

LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE
Means Just About the Same as "Let
Laurier Finish His Work"
By JOHN V. BORNE.
In reality there is not much differ-
ence between "Let Laurier Finish His
Work" and "Let well enough alone."
Mr. Fielding has sneered at "Let well
enough alone." He has read into it
the meaning that Canada should be
content with the commercial progress
alreatly made.
"Let Laurier Finish His Work"
meant "Let the Government complete
the project which is intended to en-
large and consolidate trade between
the provinces and trade with• Great
Britain."
"Let well enough alone" means "Let
us not turn aside from the develop-
ment of Canada on the lines that have
proved our ability to be independent
of the United States; and which are
the best guarantee that our expendi-
ture of $200,000,000 on a railway that
is to strengthen this independence
will not be prejudiced."
How important is the work by which
Sir Wilfrid Laurier wishes to be
judged—the work which arose directly
out of the abandonment of recipro-
city—may be judged by the Minister
of Railways' statement on March 10th,
1911, as to the cost of the National
Transcontinental, which is being built
from Mouton, New Brunswick, to
Winnipeg -1,804 miles:—
Cost of work done to Decem-
ber 31st, 1910 $94,580,500
Estimated cost of work re-
quired to complete 50,758,200
$145,339,700
The figures, which do not include
interest charges during construction,
work out at $80,565 per mile. At the
end of January, 1911, the total per-
centage of work done on all contracts
was 67.62 per cent.—roughly, two-
thirds.
These figures do not include a cent
of the Government's obligations for
the Grand Trunk Pacific from Winni-
peg to Prince Rupert.

How the Government Spends Milllond
to Keep j-lim Out and Then
Brings Him In
By JOHN V. BORNE.
Yearly interest, at four per cent.;
on the cost of the National Transconti-;
nental Railway will be $3,200 per mfle,f
roughly, five and three-quarter million
dollars a year.
Having been in business thirty years
the Canadian Pacific Railway, after
meeting operating expenses, has to
find $901 per mile for fixed charges,,
before it can pay dividends. On an
average of 65 per cent. of its earnings
are absorbed by operating expenses.
If the National Transcontinental can
begin with an equally good proportion
of earnings to expenses, it will need
to earn, in order to pay its fixed
charges, $16,000,000 a year, in an
empty country, which is being opened
up entirely to enlarge east and west
trade and trade with Great Britain.
This is exclusive of the earnings of
the Grand Trunk Pacific beyond Win-
nipeg.
There are two 'dominant reasons
why the Government's predictions
about its great railway should be rea-
lized, both of which make the earning
capacity of the railway a matter of
extraordinary importance to the Cana-
dian people.
The first is that the people must
pay the interest on the cost, whether
the railway earns it or not, and there-
fore, every taxpayer has a direct re-
sponsibility for making the line pro-
fitable.
The second is that, if the Transcon-
tinental cannot make both ends meet
out of earnings, and the public tree,
sury has to be drawn on, Canadian
credit will be seriously prejudiced, be-
cause, for the first time in the Twen-
tieth Century (which Sir Wilfrid
Laurier proclaimed to bo Canada's
Century) a groat new transportation
undertaking in the Dominion will fail
to be selfsupporting, with obvious
effeet on the further supply of capital
for Canadian development.
The Prime Minister was afraid the
National Transcontinental might be
too late against the "ever -vigilant
competitor to the south." Reclproeity
gives the competitor a three years'
start of the Transcontinental Reiiway
which WAS to defeat hint.

MISLEADING THE FARMER.
Farmers who read The Weekly Sun
and other pzo reciprocity papa's
should, beware of the misleading use
of figures and schedules made in pre-
senting the reciprocity case. For ex-
ample, The Weekly Sun 'heads a USE
of changes, "Where the farmer
Stands to Gain in Buying." The list
at a glance shows such items as "On
bindery from 174 per cent, to 15 per
cent, ; on horse rakes, from 20 per
cent, to 15 per cent. ; belie and gongs,
30 per Dent. to 271 per cent.,
Many are persuaded that recipro-
city will bring about what these fig-
ures appear to promise, and will be
surprised to learn that the cut in
each case is not from 20 to 15 per cent.,
or from 30 to 27a per cent., but merely
5 per ceut. or 24 per cent„ as the ease
may be, the duty being reduced, not
the cut being made in prices, from 30
to 271. If the farmer thinks he is
going to get a cut of 15 or 20 per cent.
on implement prices he is simply
trialed.

Thisbox should be well insulated in
order that a uniform temperature may
be maintained. Such a box can be.
made by anyone, and will he found to
be invaluable in maintaining a uni-
form temperature. The atmosphere
in the make room often varies 30 or
40 degrees or more in 20 hours. Under
such conditions unless protected in an
insulated box, there can be little hope
of having a uniform culture Prole day
to day. If the temperature of the cul-
ture one day le at 90 and the next
day at 70 or below, one might do his
best with the culture and get very
indifferent results.
One needs to use much judgment
as to what is likely to take place un-
der varying conditions; find out how
much the culture does change, and
then "set" accordingly. With milk or
cream at a high temperature, set
more sparingly, at a low temperature
set more heavily once having found
the right method, stick to it. Do
not change from day to day.
If the culture goes wrong, get a
fresh one. It is practically impos-
b
1 le to bring it back by setting less•
s
at least, such a practice is unsatis-
factory, and is not to be recommend-
ed. If ouE could keep a culture for
long periods, set more lightly and
maintain the temperature about five
degrees lower. It is not well to place
it on the ice save in the case of it
being too ripe late on in tho day,
5 i and one was not yet ready to use it.

BABY'S TERRIBLE ECZEMA.
Hands Tied To Prevent
Scratching.
Five Doctors' Failed To Relieve,
But Zam-Buk Worked
A Cure.
Mrs. Chas. Levere of Prescott, North
Channel, Ont., tells how Zam-Buk
cured her baby. She says : "My baby's
head and face was one complete mass
of sores, The itching and irritation
were fearful, and the little one's
blight was so serious that one time
we feared her ears would be eaten off
by the disease.
"We had to keep her hands tied for
days to prevent her rubbing and
scratching the sores. Doctor after doc-
tor treated her in vain. until we had
had five doctors. They all agreed it
was a frightful case of eczema, bat
none of them did any permanent
good. .
As a Last resource ,we were advised
to try Zara-Buk. The first box did so
much good that we felt sure we were
at last working in the right direction.
We persevered with the treatment un-
til we had used thirteen boxes, had at
the end of that time I am glad to say
Zam-Buk had Effected a complete
core."
For eczema, eruptions, rashes, tet-
ter, itch, ringworm and similar skin
diseases, Zam-Buk is without equal.
It also cures cuts, burns, scalds, biles,
scalds, piles, abscesses, chronic sores,
blood poison, etc. All druggists and
stores at 50c a box, or post free for
price from Zam-Buk Co., Toronto.

WREN THE HORSE GROWS OLD.
Some horses never seem to grow
old, but are able to perform much
work up to the age of twenty-five
years, declares a writer in the Amer-
ican Cultivator. With proper care and
treatment the old horse is able to stand
a great deal of work and for light
work is worth just as much as a
much younger animal. If offered for
sale, of course the old horse will not
bring a very large price.
But if horses are to be serviceable
until a good old age they' must re-
ceive the very best of care and treat-
ment at all times. They must not be
neglected at any time, whether work-
ing or idle.
The old 'horse does not always get
proper attention in regard to feed.
He cannot masticate some kinds of
food, especially corn, thoroughly, nor
can he eat his ration in as short a
time as can a young animal whose
teeth are - sound. So unless some
ground grain is provided for him and
he is given sufficient time to eat -his
meals when being worked, ho will fall
to get the full benefit of his food and
in a short time will begin to lose flesh
and strength.-
When
trength:When the horse begins to grow old
give him just as good care as you
did when he was young, and he will
more than pay for his feed and care
by the work which he can perform.
RATION FOR GROWING PIGS
It is impossible for any one to say
what is the best ration for growing
pigs The feeding capacity of one dif-
fers from another. We have been
feeding for years, yet are all the
time looking and anticipating some
way to produce better results, writes
a farmer. Sometimes we think we
are feeding more grain than neces-
sary; then again we think we are not
feeding enough. As a rule, more pigs
are underfed than overfed. We find a
good ration for developing youngsters
is five pounds of 0, P. oilmeal, ten
pounds of wheat bran or middings,
fifteen pounds of cornmeal and one
pound of salt well mixed in a barrel
with milk and warm water, feeding
all they will eat up clean morning
and night. If you have apples, cab-
bage or roots feed them at noon.
After they have eaters their evening
slop feed them one pound of corn to
each pound of live weight of pigs.
Ground wheat, barley or oats an be
substituted for a portion of the bran
and middlings if desired.

i` LET LAURIER
FINISH HIS WORK.
The Grand Trunk Pacific Scheme le a
Direct Result of the Abandon-
ment of Reciprocity
•r;,
ne JOHN v, BONNE. a 4
Always when a country adopts a
new and definite line of policy, some
Special, tremendous work is under-
taken, which embodies that policy and
becomes its, monument. That is as
Inevitable ria that day should follow
night, It nfay be undertaken by mem-
bers of the community, whose efforts
may coalesce in several enterprises, or
the Government itself may launch
some scheme in the name of the coun-
try.
Canada furnishes two outstanding
examples of this. The logical outcome
of Confederation was an ocean -to -
ocean Canada, The logical necessity
of an ocean -to -ocean Canada was an
ocean -to -ocean railway. The Canadian
Pacific had to be, It was first under-
taken by the Government, and was
then committed to private hands, with.
Government assistance.
When the abandonment of the Re-
ciprocity idea was so quickly succeed-
ed by a marvelous expansion of busi-
ness, and, as Sir Wilfrid Laurier said,
"We now'but all our hopes upon the
British trade," the policy of fiscal in-
dependence had its sequel in a vast
engine designed to establish that in-
dependence—the National Transconti-
nental Railway—which is to be oper-
ated by the Grand Trunk Pacific Rail-
way, to which the backing of the pub-
lic treasury was liberally given.
The general election of 1904 was
fought on the wisdom of the Grand
Trunk Pacific and National Trans-
continental bargain, which was the
Government's method of carrying to
its logical end the repeal of the Reci-
procity offer, and of implementing the
Premier's announcement to the Im-
perial Conference, that Canada was
devoted to East -and -West trade.
The election was won by the Gov-
ernment, and the railway was begun.
In 1908 the Government went to the
country again—not on the wisdom of
the bargain, but on 'the necessity of
completing the job. "Let Laurier
finish his work," was the victorious
slogan.
The work is not finished. Another

BEWARE THE COMPETITOR
:Sir Wilfrid Said, "Heaven Grant That
1 It Be Not Already Too Late"
By JOHN V. BORNE.
A great deal has'been said for and
against the contention that in making
,a reciprocity agreement without con-
sulting the people the Dominion Gov-
ernment reversed its established pol-
icy.
Those who say the Liberal party
was always committed to Reciprocity,
forget that the transcontinental rail-
way policy was based on the aban-
donment of reciprocity, and that the
general election of 1904, won by the
Government, was the strongest en-
dorsement of the abandonment .of Re-
ciprocity the country could give; for
it authorized the Government to spend
large sums of money to make new
'channels of East and West trade,
whidh Reciprocity would have ren-
dered unnecessary.
Listen to the Prime Minister justi-
fying the great scheme:—
` A railway to extend from the shores
tot the Atlantic Ocean to the shores of
the Pacific Ocean, and to be, every inch
.of it, on Canadian soil, is a natidnal
as a well as a commercial necessity.
That such a road must be built, that it
is, in the language which I have used,
a national and a commercial necessity,
that it Is a corollary of our status as
a nation, that it is a requisite of our
commercial develoment, is a proposi-
tion to which, up to this moment, I
have heard no dissent. . . •
We consider that it is the duty of all
those who sit within these walls by
the will of the people, to provide im-
mediate means whereby the products
of those new settlers may find an exit
to the ocean at the least possible cost,
and whereby; likewise, a market may
be found in this new region for those
who toil in the forests, in the fields, in
the mines, in the shops of the old Pro-
vinces. Such is our duty: it is imme-
diate and imperative. It is not for to-
morrow, but of,this day, of this hour,
and ofthis minute. Heaven grant that
it be not already too late; heaven
grant that whilst we tarry and dispute
the trade of Canada is not deviated to
other channels ,and that an ever vigi-
lant competitor does not take to him-
self the trade that properly belongs to
those who acknowledge Canada as
their native or their adopted land. . .

ltlrIMINI
CANADA'S INDEPENDENCE
The Finance Minister Would Have
Built a Third Transcontinental
to Emphasize It
By JOHN V. BORNE.
Though the Prime Minister always
speaks for the Government, great im-
portance attaches to the deelaratiotis
of their Ministers: and, where big ex-
penditures aro concerned, especially
,to the Minister of Finance, Me. Field-
ing.
In turning from the United States
Mr. Fielding was as thoroughgoing as
this Chief. He told the House of Com-
,>atons:
It Is desirable that we should gilt°
our American brethren to understand
.that Canada is resolved to work Out
her independence in these things, that
the Present proposal will promote this
object, and that even if still another
railway should be necessary we shall
be prepared to construct it. The atti-
tude that the Government has taken
upon this subject. has already
attracted touch attention across the
'border, and there is a much keener
eppreclation of Canada's independence
than ever before.
s, You v{III at once be struck by the
clearness of the .allusion to the de-
sirability of achieving independence
of the United States. Why should
there be this persistent appearance of
the United States in the speeches of
Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Mr. Fielding,
insisting upon the building of a rail-
way that was not to approach the.
United States border line? Thera
was no proposal to build, the lino
north and south instead et east and'
west.
It could only be because some cone
dition that formerly affected the re-
lations of Canada with the United'
States had undergone a change. What{
was it? You may search the records'
of the times in vain for the slightest,
proof that there had been any ques-:
tion between the two countries which;
could be a factor in Canada's embarka-
tion on a vast commercial enterprise„
except one—and that was the ques
tion of reciprocity.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier had led the Lib-
erals who in 1891 desired unrestricted
reciprocity. Mr. Fielding when Pre-
mier of Nova Scotia had kept an open.
door for his Province's withdrawal
from Confederation, because it was
thought better to trade with the
United States than with the rest of
Canada. Especially to them, there-
fore, the new transcontinental railway
scheme was a confirmation of the
abandonment of the reciprocal idea;
and their assertion of the Fiscal Inde-
pendence of Canada was consequently
all the more definite and clearcut.

LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE
Means Just About the Same as "Let
Laurier Finish His Work"
By JOHN V. BORNE.
In reality there is not much differ-
ence between "Let Laurier Finish His
Work" and "Let well enough alone."
Mr. Fielding has sneered at "Let well
enough alone." He has read into it
the meaning that Canada should be
content with the commercial progress
alreatly made.
"Let Laurier Finish His Work"
meant "Let the Government complete
the project which is intended to en-
large and consolidate trade between
the provinces and trade with• Great
Britain."
"Let well enough alone" means "Let
us not turn aside from the develop-
ment of Canada on the lines that have
proved our ability to be independent
of the United States; and which are
the best guarantee that our expendi-
ture of $200,000,000 on a railway that
is to strengthen this independence
will not be prejudiced."
How important is the work by which
Sir Wilfrid Laurier wishes to be
judged—the work which arose directly
out of the abandonment of recipro-
city—may be judged by the Minister
of Railways' statement on March 10th,
1911, as to the cost of the National
Transcontinental, which is being built
from Mouton, New Brunswick, to
Winnipeg -1,804 miles:—
Cost of work done to Decem-
ber 31st, 1910 $94,580,500
Estimated cost of work re-
quired to complete 50,758,200
$145,339,700
The figures, which do not include
interest charges during construction,
work out at $80,565 per mile. At the
end of January, 1911, the total per-
centage of work done on all contracts
was 67.62 per cent.—roughly, two-
thirds.
These figures do not include a cent
of the Government's obligations for
the Grand Trunk Pacific from Winni-
peg to Prince Rupert.

How the Government Spends Milllond
to Keep j-lim Out and Then

By JOHN V. BORNE.
Yearly interest, at four per cent.;
on the cost of the National Transconti-;
nental Railway will be $3,200 per mfle,f
roughly, five and three-quarter million
dollars a year.
Having been in business thirty years
the Canadian Pacific Railway, after
meeting operating expenses, has to
find $901 per mile for fixed charges,,
before it can pay dividends. On an
average of 65 per cent. of its earnings
are absorbed by operating expenses.
If the National Transcontinental can
begin with an equally good proportion
of earnings to expenses, it will need
to earn, in order to pay its fixed
charges, $16,000,000 a year, in an
empty country, which is being opened
up entirely to enlarge east and west
trade and trade with Great Britain.
This is exclusive of the earnings of
the Grand Trunk Pacific beyond Win-
nipeg.
There are two 'dominant reasons
why the Government's predictions
about its great railway should be rea-
lized, both of which make the earning
capacity of the railway a matter of
extraordinary importance to the Cana-
dian people.
The first is that the people must
pay the interest on the cost, whether
the railway earns it or not, and there-
fore, every taxpayer has a direct re-
sponsibility for making the line pro-
fitable.
The second is that, if the Transcon-
tinental cannot make both ends meet
out of earnings, and the public tree,
sury has to be drawn on, Canadian
credit will be seriously prejudiced, be-
cause, for the first time in the Twen-
tieth Century (which Sir Wilfrid
Laurier proclaimed to bo Canada's
Century) a groat new transportation
undertaking in the Dominion will fail
to be selfsupporting, with obvious
effeet on the further supply of capital
for Canadian development.
The Prime Minister was afraid the
National Transcontinental might be
too late against the "ever -vigilant
competitor to the south." Reclproeity
gives the competitor a three years'
start of the Transcontinental Reiiway
which WAS to defeat hint.
