on a use less loss rifle and Us collateral of which gulled a bumper wheat crop out of the Northwest farmers In and then denied it a free market has now reached stage whore il is deemed safer over to the provinces The provinces are gelling busy Trade Pub licence lings be ing held Business men from he cities declare heir intention of making a passionate pilgrim age of three weeks to the coun try lo help the farmer with his seeding and his In creased production Is word is to In- speeded up In vlow of these activi ties jl was deemed advisable Interview Ihe farmers hut of tin farm the hen the horse the apple the potato the wheal who will he chiefly affected by the speeding up process The inter views follow f Hen Yes am willing to do my bit but I want my efforts recognized A carper of persis tent such as mine is trying on the nervous sys tem and should have definite com If I am asked to lay eggs by light after my days work is over I want the peo ple of Canada and the British Em pire gel the benefit I dont want to spend all laying eggs for half a dozen cold storage kings who hide them away in summer and dole out in winter at anything from seventy cents to a dollar a dozen can lay eggs labor food and wear and tear included quite pro fitably at a doz en and that i- Ihe price I would like lo fixed for the people at large I know Ihal is Ihe price he told storage kings buy my product at arid dont see why Ihe people should gel worst treatment Its all very well to say that the people have as good country acts or rmwi for Hie cold and that storage fellows threefifths of the sum eggs do not see the mar ket until months later I often wonder why the government docs not invoke he Measures Act and make lliese cold storage pi- rales behave The cow Whats the use I drink all Che water and make all the milk I can and what they cant can they give to the pigs But I dont what the milk nun i get any credit All get is knocks The smart say that I am first cousin lo the pump Its not my fault Its the dairy companies do lo when it goes to the city As it leaves my bosom it is pure as the driven snow but I wont answer for after the middlemen get hold of Butter What can I do about it I try my best and turn out a good product but I am not re sponsible for the price The middleman fixes that Forty cents a pound pretty stiff A competition from oleomar garine would bring butter to rea son hut you can hardly expect relief like that from the Borden Government which I understand is addicted to high tariff Domes tic cheese am told brings the same price now as lie imported varieties That seems a good way lo encourage the use of the im ported varieties I suppose Ihe Borden Government to swell he customs revenue Of course the consumer gels the worst of it Thats what he was made for Im afraid hell dry if bo looks for the milk of human kindness in the Borden Government Theyre too much taken up with friends the profiteers This bog Yes Im worth ten cents a pound on the hoof right now and the packers swear hat its a good price Perhaps it is a good price compared with the six a pound I brought be fore the war but it isnt such a much even at that When you consider that the farmer raises me lends me nurses me does all the hard work for me and that the packer simply buys me kills me cures me and sells me why I ask should farmer gel ten cents a pound and the paokcr get forty cents a pound for his baron Why all that spread be tween pork on hoof and ba con in the 9 Heir Single Copies 3o cachV Vol pan And who gets it must confess it makes mo hot when I think thai the mort gage lifter can bo valued at a small sum as ten cents a pound while my dead self is worth thir ty cents a pound nloro simply be cause the Borden Governments friends dp the handling When I compare ten a pound with forty cents a pound often ask which is ho greater hog myself for the packer J i I ii COLLI NEWMARKET will bo by Hospitals for The finish I bey re talking of tractors for tho farm May I never live to see them I However theres one thing that may slave off the evil day Ihe tractor i no fertilizer I must admit saw a ray of hope when the war started The horses young Mi for Borden Government down in Nova Scotia encouraged me to believe I might be called on servo my somewhere in France But when I came to think it over I saw that I wasnt old enough for the job I am sound in wind and limb and still sprightly J judge from the hors es they bought In Nova Scotia that only those- with no teeth and a serious disposition need apply Its true they painted horses down in Peel county lo get them into the array but even at that I don dont think I could make up to look old enough no gift that way The Potato Dont blame me Let the Borden Government do it They have their War Measures Act Lot them use it Two mil lion bushels surplus and people starving for potatoes in one prov ince while the potatoes rot in an of her A little intelligent fore- Sight on the part or a government that has a War Measures Act to operate under and a Railway Commission lo order the railways about would soon remedy that repeal il dont blame me If potatoes are five dollars a bag in Ontario and are going be urging in New Brunswick blame the mul letheads at Ottawa who are loo busy providing chances for their profiteering friends to rich lo attend to a little mailer like pro per distribution of the food pro- duets of the country The Apple No apples to eat in an apple country The West Indian banana our national fruit Well what better could you ex- peel from the Borden Govern ments blundering manipulations I am a signal example of how the blamed thing works out I may in British Columbia but doesnt follow that sell there No pay the freight all the way across the continent and clival five each in Ontario which in sends its good apples overseas to England In short the home market is protected for us apples so that we neednt sell not more than the reduction they have the III Association particularly lb Toronto and Hamilton have d at home dont I think it would be cheap er and altogether more satisfac tory for the consumer lo eat I ho apples grown so lo speak at his own door instead of bringing them from thousands of miles distant but apparently Bor den Government doesnt see it in lhal way The Wheal talk to me I did it once in Gave em a bumper crop and then had to hand over to Ihe elevator corn- bine Couldnt get the railways to move it Government wouldnt let me pel an ten a bushel by means of a free ex change with Ihe United Slates so had lo take the price offered by Ihe milling interests or rot This market barred that market bar red What am I lo do about it Why even this year they wouldnt help me a bushel from the British government Never again They landed me on false pretences in Theyll have lo show me this time by smallest made in any byeelection government will he defeated the Liberals reduce the Government majorities by the average reduction secured by them in all the seven bought lions the result approximately will he as follows Conservatives Liberals If the Liberals reduce the government majorities by only onehalf of the average reduc tion in the byeelections the Lib erals
