A .fourth and un- known candidate ,has also thrown his hat into the ring.

The main problem facing Canada comes from the fast that Britain Is, and will continue to be, our main ex- ilprt market while we puree most of our imports from the United States. Because of the unsettled conditions • of post war trade we can- not exchange the sterling received from Britain far ,IJ•S. dollars to pay for our purchases, This position has steadily intemsi- fied over a long . period—at the tunic of confederation we were purchasing 60% of our outside needs from Bri- tain. This dwindled to 20% in 1939, and 71/2% last year. Britain takes 40% of Cd,nada's exports. Our 'purchases from United States• have increased from 30% of our to- tal imports to 75%,' while our sales to that country have decreased from one-half of our exports to 'less than 90%. .All realize that the real solution of this' difficulty is in the World Trade Charter whieh is being worked out by the United Nations. However, manydifficulties are in the way and practical. 'results ..will not be , felt for some time. An immediate way must' be found to ntinilttize the impact that the loss of our foreign trade would mean a reduced standard of living to Canadians •tvho would bec $me "a na- tion of 'peasants and poor peasants at that." This cohtradicts' emphatic- ally the socialist claim (made on the radio last week, by the Socialist lead': er) that ''Canada has within its own boundaries the natural resources to give every Canadian a high standard of living." The conference stressed the need to give Britain more assistance, in the interests of Canada's trade and wel- iber- PROCLAMATION Town of Seaforth On instructions from the Council, I hereby pro- claim that no dogs shall be allowed -to run .at ' large in the Town of Seaforth during the period of May 15, 1947, to August 31, 1947.

One of the most popular salads ,in •men -'s clubs is asparagus, vinaigrette=chefs tell Us. They say that this ds simply chilled freshly -cooked asparagus stalks serv- ed on crisp lettuce with vinegar and. oil sauce. A chef, 'renowned for :his sauces, was kind enough to supply the following recipe and pointed. out that a email quantity of tarragon vinegar makes a difference. It is also good with hot asparagus. /4Sauce Vinaigrette teaspoon1 salt teaspoon paprika 1 tablespoon tarragon vinegar• 2 tablespoons cider vinegar. 6 tablespoons olive or salad oil 1 tablespoon chopped green pepper 1 tablespoon chopped cucumber pickle 1 teaspoon chopped parsley 1 teaspoon chopped green onion. Combine ingredients in order given. A little chopped celery' or pimento may be added if desired-, To enjoy asparagus to' the utmost you should eat it as fresh as possible. Snap off the woody ends as the stalks break above the tough part, Takeoff lower scales on stems and clean thor- oughly. When cooking asparagus it is a good' idea to remember that the stalks take longer to cook than .the tips. Use sealer rings in the bottom of sauce- pan to prop heads out of w? ter. Only an inch of water is necessary, cover and cook for 10 or 15 minutes, de- pending -upon the amount prepared. Someone asked us the other day if asparagus liquor, like spinach liquor, should be thrown out We say yes, because it is too 'strong to use except with asparagus. Drawn Butter Sauce - 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour air cup hot water ,'1 cup asparagus water • % teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Melt butter, add flour with season- ings. Pour in the liquids and 'boil five minutes. Add lemon juice and serve at once over asparagus. . Take a Tip 1. .

ATVCK DISEASE Great progress has been made by modern science in understanding the causes of typhoid and para -typhoid, and , in -applying measures for their eradication. The death rate has drop- ped markedly in this century, due to filtration and, chein.ical treatment of water supplies, pasteurization of milk, and the control of disease -germ carriers. Public health officers say' that it all goes to prove what can be done when a concerted attack is made on disease. Wonders achieved with these fevers can be duplicated, they assert, against 'almost any known type of human affiction, particularly if the public co-operates with the medical profession and the research scientist.
