To make the story short, through the example set by this club boy a large area in his county `has now been planted to alfalfa, wihich has proved to be a most desirable and profitable addition to the resources of the community.

We have our school fairs, grow- ing in importance each year, potatofairs spon- sored by the Kiwanis Club, stock judging com- petitions and trips to Toronto Exhibition and Guelph O.A.C. of the brightest farmer boys of the County.

One hundred and ten million people in the United States take no objection to a similar coin made -of good Can-` adian nickel. lt is all a~matter of becoming accustomed to it. Canadians should take pride in the fact that they have a Canadian coin made of a Canadian metal represented today by one of the world s outstanding in- dustries---located in Canada, in Ontario, for that matter. Certainly there is nothing more annoying or more measly than the Canadian live-cent silver piece. It is the laughing stock of foreign visitors. Those who would scrap the Canadian nickel are reactionaries, unable to adopt themselves to anything new. Some would scrap all the autos, too, and revert to horses and oxen. ' The Bulletin is partly right. The Canadian nickel was adopted ,purely for sentimental reasons after twenty years agitation by men who had nothing whatever to `do with the nickel industry. They argued that. Canada produces 95 per cent. of the world s nickel and that Canada was tardy in not including the metal in the national coinage. Foreign countries had done so years before. But as far as benetitting the industry is concerned. that phase of the argument is a joke. The nickel industry does not care a nickel whether or not the Canadian Government buys an ounce of its product, except possibly -from the senti- mental and advertising viewpoint. Coinage does not consume a fraction of one per cent. of its output. In nnu AIIAI1` n-LAL In LL;\..n L...

We say "`un- informed press advisedly because several` editors have made bold-to say that the;Cana'-. dian nickel was adopted by a friendly Govern- ment to help out the nickel indgustry in creating a demand for its `product. _lf_sucl1 statements as this were notapt toebe taken seriously by innocent readers they would in- deed -be laughable. If the authors of this assertion could but once visit the nickel smel- ters at Copper Cli' and Coniston, in Northern a Ontario, they would readily realize that enough i nickel could be poured in fifteen minutes to make Canada a sufficient number of nickel coins to last ve years. From .a commercial standpoint the use of nickel in Canada for,Can- adian coinage is innitesimal. But inspite of this fact the Beaverton Express comments: lt s safe to say that no such nuisance in the name of industrial interests. has ever been -inflicted on the public. a Strong words, these, adds the Collingwood Bulletin. Are they justified? If a Canadian industry has been benetted at all cannot we as Canadians stand for a littl`evinconven`ience_?
