Any person in Ontario may choose any ONE of the experiments for 1913 snd apply for the same. The material will be furnished in the order in which the applications are received while the supply lasts.

All material will be furnished entirely free of charge to each applicant and the produce will of course, become the pro- perty of the person who conducts the experiment. Each person applying for an experiment should write his name and address very carefully, and should give the name of the County inwhichhe lives. C. A. Zavitz, Director.

[Canadian Collier's.] Apparently the Western provinces have to have almost double the popula- tion required to have a vote in the Do- minion Parliament as compared to On- tario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Bruns- wick, and Prinde Edward Island. Or,in other words,a vote in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba is worth only one-half an eastern vote when expressed in terms of federal rep- resentations. The fact that there is 1 member of Parliament for every 56,- 068 people in British Columbia; for every 53,532 in Alberta; for every 49,- 243 in Saskatchewan; and for every 45,- 561 in Manitoba. But Ontario needs only 29,340 votes to get an M.P,; Que- bec, 30,180; New Brunswick, 27,068; Nova Scotia, 27,452; and Prince Edward island, 23.432. Yet, British Columbia and the other western provinces pay more taxes per head into the federal treasury—by way of customs receipts— than most of the other provinces. Brit- ish Columbia contributes something be- tween $25 and $30 per head, and has to have twice the population to entitle her to parliamentary representation, while some of the far eastern provinces con- tribute something less than $5 per head to the federal treasury. Obviously it is wrong. The British North America Acttcontemplated conditions such as this arising, and therefor, a clause was in- serted providing that a redistribution of seats must be made after the regular decennial census had been taken. The last census was in 1911, and yet the parliamentary representation is main- tained on the old 1901 basis. It is time for the redistribution bill at Ottawa— or is the Government afraid for what Alberta and Saskatchewan might say about the naval policy? —Laurant, the world's greatest mag- ician is coming soon with his big com- pany. . —Special rate to school children for Laurante's performance. Look for an- nouncement. —Your money returned if Laurant & Co. do not deliver the' goods. Just go to the box office if yoU are not pleased with the show.
