Such restrictions naturally (lead to reduced buying power on the part of the people, in turn affecting mane facturers and producers in every line. This problem has demanded the high- est qualities of statesmanship for its solution and, the trend having been early recognized by the King Adtninis. tration, a non-partisan and highly com- petent Tarriff Board was appointed. The result of the tireless efforts of this Board is the King -Dunning Budget, KEEPING DOWN King Budgets during the past nine years have kept living costs down. Tariffs have been lowered on many commodities and implements of pro- duction, reducing living costs, and costs TAXES REDUCED Income Tax—reduced over 35 % 'since 1924. Sales Tax—Reduced from 6% to 1%. Postal Rates Reduced from 3 cents to 2 cents; penny postage re-established. Cheque Tax -Reduced from 2 cents on every $50.00 to 2 cents over $10.00. Receipt Tax—Abolished. Transportation Tax—Abolished. Insurance Tax—Abolished. Telegraph Tax—Abolished. Reduction infive years estimated to amount to $116,000,000. The prompt development of trade within the Empire is the logical sal - tion of the enormous problem involved; andthe enthusiastic manner in which the King -Dunning Budget has been received throughout the Empire ensures Canada a most favourable position. at the Imperial Conference for : 'the interchange of products. Providing a market for 'Canada's hroducts, ensuringthe building up of a ome market for her manufactured products, the policy of the King Administration ` offers assurance . of Canada's future prosperity. LIVING COSTS of production while at the same time helping Canada to buildup the greatest export trade per capita, in the world,` in manufactured and semi -manufac- tured goods. TARIFF REDUCTIONS 1922—Sugar, agriculturalimplements, textiles, boots and shoes. 1923—British preferential tariff reduced by 10 percent,where goods imported by Canadian port. 1924 -Instruments of production usedin agriculture, mining, forestry and fisheries. 1925—Well-drilling machinery andfishermen's engines. 1926—Sugar, automobiles, tin-plate, etc. 1928—Implements of production in mining and fishing industries; fertilizers on free list. 1930 -Tea, porcelain, china, vegetables, fruits, free under British preference.

"" a� si:eta only, in the live stock business, in which I am a weekly customer, but: also in 'nearly all the ether lines they carryi and I hope to continue in: this connection, Now, as for supporting the budget,. I will try to explain. A few days of ter the budget was before the House, I made. it my business to call on Mr. j, J. Morrison, :Secretary for the U. F.O. and he told nue that hewa.s quite,. favorably impressed With it, and the. next week it c.anle out in the front page of the. `Farrner•s Sun" "Morr- ison is in favor of the Dunning Bud- get." In the. first place it is a real business budget, incl is of particular interest to 010. heermse it is looking: for markets within the Empire, and also through its countervailing: ditties, hoids out the welcome hand to our neighbours to the south` of us, which so vitally affects our markets. Just here I will give you a little of my own: experience in the cattle business and tariffs. Two years ago I imported in the neighborhood of el- even hundred head of Battle from the ,different Western Provinces, went south nearly td the Montana bound- ary, and everywhere 1' went the Ati- ericans were buying carr cattle. Cat- tie were high in price, The more buy- ers you have the better the price.

So J say we cannot afford to quarrel with Uncle Sant, with his hundred' and twenty million people. It; ismuch better, to hold out the welcome hand and say, "When you arc ready to trade , on equal footing, we are too." Yes, the Running Budget is a good one, and has been very carefully stud- ied out to benefit Canadian trade, and I cannot understand why anyone'who has an interest in his own business, and Canada at large, ;would' not sup- port it, and especially: the farmers.. l.,et me say in conclusion, I am not much interested in either of the par` ties. The Liberals hammered me hard but I ani interested in my own busi- ness, and da not let .Mr. Spotton kid you. He claims to be everybody's' candidate, A vote for Spotton is a vote against larger :markets, and ag- ainst Canadian trade. A vote for Rob- ertson is a vote for Empire trade and. wider markets, but Mr, Spotton is. first,second- and last looking after George. He may be able to blast his way into the Conservative party and get his Convention, but he cannot blast his way into the confidence of the United Farmers of North Huron. It is only a few years ago since he tried to steal the seat from the Far- mers, and trailed us into the courts, and, caused Mr. J. W. King, the duly elected member, a good deal of ex- pense. I wonder if Mr. Spotton is not behind the scene in all these ar- ticc"s. Now, Mr. Editor, this is not Lib- eral propaganda, I publish this just for my own defence. Hoping that I have made myself understood, I am., Yours sincerely, Sheldon 13ricker• News and Information For The Busy Farmer (Furnished by the Ontario Depart- ment of Agriculture) Music in Rural Schools The enthusiasmevident at musical festivals staged by schools in various counties at the end of the school term in June shows definitely that the young people of rural Ontario are taking anincreasingly greater inter- est in music, In Middlesex, for ex- ample, there were Ii5o entries includ- ing eleven school choruses, three high school choruses and two mixed chor- uses. Over I5oo people were in at'- tendance. Fifteen rural school and three urban school choruses compet- ed at the festival in Peel, with some 154 entries and a capacity attendance. As a result -of previous musical fes- tivals in Wellington county, a large number of rural school boards have made special arrangements for the teaching of music to their pupils, J. E. Whitlock of the agricultural repre- sentative branch declares that no ac- tivity has been taken up so whole- heartedly by the Juniors of Ontario as music and het advises leaders in counties where this feature has not been attempted to give the matter serious consideration for their iq3r programs.
