NEED WIDER MARKETS.
Speaking at Woodstock last October
during his triumphant tour of Ontario,
Sir Wilfrid Laurier said he had come to
discuss, apart from the excitement of a
general election, the question of wider
markets for Canadian products, particu-
larly for the West. The future pros-
perity of the Dominion, he urged, de-
manded that the problem be dealt with.
"We submitted a solution," said Sir
Wilfrid, "We have been defeated and
must bow to the verdict of our fellow -
countrymen. But the problem will not
down. It still confronts us all -it con-
fronts our country. It is the duty of
the Government to solve it by policy
and not by temporary expedient. If
the Government cannot do this then it
must make way for other and more
courageous men who will deal with the
problem."
Again at St. John, Que., on October
6th last, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, speaking
to his French-Canadian compatriots,
declared that the Liberal policy was
still to secure the wider markets that
were so badly needed by the producers
and consumers of this country.
Sir Wilfrid's policy is not one of
emergency. It is the steady policy of
Liberalism. In his tariff, as in his naval
policy, there is consistent progress
commensurate with the growth of the
country. He is no dreamer of hystt_ri-
cal emergencies. Lightning and thunder
and storms have no part in his political
faith.
TWO YEARS OF INERITA.
Two years have passed since the Tory
party defeated reciprocity by their in-
famous coalition with the Nationalists.
In these two years the Borden Govern-
ment has done absolutely nothing to
relieve the incessant demands from
both East and West for wider markets
and reduced cost of living. True, Hon.
:Mr, Foster has spent most of that time
fruitlessly travelling over the world in
a mock heroic effort to widen trade
where there is little opportunity for it,
while scorning to encourage trade
where it would naturally go. So far
as easing the burdens of Canadian pro-
ducers and consumers is concerned, the
Borden government has registered an
absolute blank.
During the period the United States
has secured a new government which
has introduced a complete fiscal revo-
lution, Mr. Woodrow Wilson, on as-
suming the Presidency, strictly enforc-
ed the Liberal doctrine that pre-election
promises must be fulfilled, and he was
backed by his followers in both Con-
gress and Senate. During a single
special session the American tariff has
has been reduced by 28 per cent. This

reduction is much greaterthan it really
appears since the free and very low
tariff lists have been so arranged as to
reduce the burden of taxation upon
Rod and the oruinary necessities of
life, so that it inures especially to the
benefit of the working classes. Cattle,
sheep, swine, coal, fish, leather, boots
and shoes, harness, agricultural implem-
ents, cream, milk, eggs, bacon, and all
kinds of fresh and smoked meats from
being taxed above 25 per cent have sud-
denly become absolutely free.
MR. A'S PROFITLESS JOB.
Two patrons of a noted Ontario
creamery, bath members of a cow test-
ing association, at the end of last year
had these records to study. Mr. A.
milking eight cows sent a total of only
1,360 pounds of fat. Mr. B. with only
five cows sent 1,777 pounds.
Dairymen in other sections are invited
to consider what this means. A. had
three cows more than B. to feed all
year, but received a smaller income
by quite ninety dollars. Nor is that all,
for the three extra cows consumed
feed worth at least ninety dollars more,
making another ninety dollars that he
was "out".
But one step further: A. worked hard
milking those three extra cows, spend-
ing probably 200 hours more than B. on
a thankless and profitless job. The
cows were worth something as an in-
vestment, but it is doubtful if they re-
turned any interest on it: some allowance
should be made for depreciation even of
this wonderfully inefficient eow "plant";
then stable accommodation had to be
provided foc diem; and the general care
of the herd called for some expenditure
of thought and skill on the part of A
as general manager of his establish-
ment.
The deductions are plain; however
comforting a "guess" may be as to
whether a cow, or a herd, "pays",
there is nothing to take the place of
actual dairy records. Further, what-
ever the production of a herd may be,
comparsions with other annual records
should be made in order to see if im-
provement is possible.
INCREASED COST OF LIVING.
The result to Canada of the great
change in the American tariff has been
immediate and marked. The day after
the Underwood tariff went into effect
between four and five million bushels of
Canadian oats started moving towards
Buffalo and other ports. Lumbermen
at Ottawa and other centres reported
that vast amounts of Canadian lumber
previously bought for delivery after the
tariff change were demanded for imme-
diate shipment. Cattle buyers through-
out Ontario had been scouring the coun-
try for weeks buying animals for deliv-
ery as soon as the Underwood tariff
became operative.
Everywhere there has been a rush to
take ad,rantage of this wider market,
with the natural result that prices are
going up. The Quebec Telegraph states
that prices of fish will rise, as the new
tariff enables Canadian fishermen to re-
main in Canada and still sell their pro-
duct in American markets without duty.
The Ottawa papers say:
"Meat prices to go up and increase
may come soon," and that thousands of
cattle of all kinds are being shipped
from the district to the States. Des-
patches from every part of Canada show
a stiffening in the very price of food
products as well as most of the staple
articles of living.
The cost of living will inevitably be
higher in Canada than it has ever been.
This is obviously due to two reasons:
First, the American Government has
reduced its tariff in order to secure re-
duced cost of living to its own consum-
ers, thus increasing the demand for
Canadian products. The Canadian Gov-
ernment has refused to touch the tariff
in order to keep up the cost of living for
the benefit of its friends "The interests."
In spite of the fact that this change had
long been foreseen, the Borden Govern-
ment has remained true to its high tar-
iff friends.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
In 1911, aecording to the census, the
revenue per head in the various pro-
vinces of Canada was:British Columbia,
$20.73; Manitoba. $9.78; Alberta, $7.48;
Saskatchewan, 66.82; Quebec, $4.03; P.
E. Island, $4.00; New Brunswick, $3.83;
Nova Scotia, $3.80eOntario, $3.71. For
the same year the expenditure in the
provinces, per head, was: British Col-
umbia, $'20.88; Mani toba, $8,79; Alberta,
$8.11: Saskatchewan, $6,09; P. E.
Island, $1.25; Quebec, $4 15; New
Brunswick, $3.99; Ontario, $3.81; Nova
Scotia, $3.72.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier wilt have the
people of Canada with him in his de-
claration at Ormstown last night that
one of the crying evils of the day is the
Cost of living. Coincident with the
fact that taxation is bringing unprece•
dented wealth to this treasut•y of the
Dominion, we have.' the necessities of
life hemming dearer all the time. It
is a matter of proof that within recent
years the eost of living has inereased

that the $g0,00,000 surplus which the
Government has in the treasury -fifty
millions which were taken from the
pockets of the people in the shape of
taxation -should warrant the Govern-
ment in undertaking to relieve to some
es'tent the burden of taxation Instead
of that we have the Canadian Manufact-
urers' Association, which so largely
dictates the ('oeservative policy, de-
claring that while tariff revision must
come, it must be in an upward and not
a downward direction. Whose demands
will Premier Borden listen to? -Montreal
Herald.

Dr. McNally, of Toronto, public
health inspector for the province, paid
an official visit here last night, and
after going over the town he met the
council and trustees in Industry Hall
and in a lecture defined the needs of the
place for the prevention of disease.
Whether the council will take action
or not is another matter, but if the
medical health officer does not do his
duty and is reported the Government
will then take action and appoint an-
other officer, who will attend to his
work.

A Carelessly Treated Cold
is the source of most sickness because drugged
pills, syrups and alcoholic mixtures are
uncertain and unsafe.
Scott's Emulsion has been relied upon by
physicians for forty years as the safe and sensible
remedy to suppress the cold and build up the
enfeebled forces to avert throat and lung troubles.
Don't tolerate alcoholic substitutes, but insist
n the (arotsuino Bestirs trouIstOn. One bottle usually
lasts longer than a cold. Every druggist has it. 13 75

THE FALL WEATHER HARD ON
LITTLE ONES,
Canadian fall weathee is extremely
hard on little ones. Onto day it is warm
and bright and the ne*t wet and cold.
These sudden changws bring on colds,
cramps and colic And unless baby's

may be serious here is nothing to
equal Baby's 'n Tablets in keeping
the little ones well. They sweeten the
stomach, regulate the bowels, break up
colds and make baby thrive. The Tab-

The Lure of Law.
(From the Hamilton Herald.)
Two neighbors in this city are at war
over the erection of what is called a
spite fence between their properties.
Their quarrel was aired before the
police magistrate yesterday, and he
passed is on to a higher court. But
the magistrate advised the disputants
to settle their quarrel between them-
selves like sensible citizens.
Let us reinforce the magistrate's
good advice with a story which has the
merit of being true, Many years ago
two Wentworth farmers got into a
dispute over the location of a line fence
between their hundred -acre farms.
They went to law. One of the farmers
won in the lower court; the other ap-
pealed and won. A new trial was
ordered and they began all over again.
The case dragged on for two or three
i years. The upshot of it was that the
two opposing Iawyers (both of whom
afterwards became eminent in their
profession) came into possession of the
two farms.
James Morris, Conservative, was
elected in Chateauguay Federal bye -
election by a majority of 144 over Hon.
Sydney Fisher, Liberal.

pointed to examine into the sanity of

A Carelessly Treated Cold
is the source of most sickness because drugged
pills, syrups and alcoholic mixtures are
uncertain and unsafe.
Scott's Emulsion has been relied upon by
physicians for forty years as the safe and sensible
remedy to suppress the cold and build up the
enfeebled forces to avert throat and lung troubles.
Don't tolerate alcoholic substitutes, but insist
n the (arotsuino Bestirs trouIstOn. One bottle usually
lasts longer than a cold. Every druggist has it. 13 75

THE FALL WEATHER HARD ON
LITTLE ONES,
Canadian fall weathee is extremely
hard on little ones. Onto day it is warm
and bright and the ne*t wet and cold.
These sudden changws bring on colds,
cramps and colic And unless baby's
little stomach c pt right the result
may be serious here is nothing to
equal Baby's 'n Tablets in keeping
the little ones well. They sweeten the
stomach, regulate the bowels, break up
colds and make baby thrive. The Tab-
lets are sold by medicine dealers or by
mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr.
Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville,
Ont.
The Lure of Law.
(From the Hamilton Herald.)
Two neighbors in this city are at war
over the erection of what is called a
spite fence between their properties.
Their quarrel was aired before the
police magistrate yesterday, and he
passed is on to a higher court. But
the magistrate advised the disputants
to settle their quarrel between them-
selves like sensible citizens.
Let us reinforce the magistrate's
good advice with a story which has the
merit of being true, Many years ago
two Wentworth farmers got into a
dispute over the location of a line fence
between their hundred -acre farms.
They went to law. One of the farmers
won in the lower court; the other ap-
pealed and won. A new trial was
ordered and they began all over again.
The case dragged on for two or three
i years. The upshot of it was that the
two opposing Iawyers (both of whom
afterwards became eminent in their
profession) came into possession of the
two farms.
James Morris, Conservative, was
elected in Chateauguay Federal bye -
election by a majority of 144 over Hon.
Sydney Fisher, Liberal.
The commission of five doctors ap-
pointed to examine into the sanity of
George Smith, alleged bigamist, in jail
at St. Thomas pronounce him sane,
