One partial explanation hi the terrible casualty roll of the streets and highways since the com- ing of the motor, observes the To- ronto Daily Star. is that the steam railway at the outset was feared as being far more dangerous than it eventually proved to be, and every pl'c't’illlllon that legal enactment and i-ai-el'ul provision could take was taken.

Reporting Reckless Driving ‘Vf‘ and stand behind thugs, murderers and thieves. Russia; in. its deplor- able state, is an outstanding example of what Communism meansâ€"«Km- cardine Review-Reporter. There a few automobile drivers on our highways who need special attention. These tear along at a speed of about 50 miles per hour. zxg-zaggmg to right and left as they meet or overtake other cars. Generall they claim about two- thirds o the road, evidently calcu- lating that ‘the other fellow will make way for them. In nine cases out of ten, cars driven in that way will be found to carry a Michigan license plate, says the Lucknow Sentinel. A few Ontario drivers act in this way, but they are compara- tiv_ely rare._ Drivers of this type are evidently prepared for trouble. At any rate all of them that get into trouble With other cars act in the same way. Their aim is to put the blame on the other fellow. They are utter- ly unscrupulous and great blufl‘ers. They begin with a storm of oaths and statement that the other driver was hogging the road. All in the speed-car usually join in this blus- ter. They go further and endeavor to be the first to lay a complaint in court and to take action for dam- ages. By doing this they expect to put the other fellow at a disad- vantage. as one charged with being in the wrong. usually falls more or less under suspicion even with the magistrate. \‘jho aims to be fair. In court they are prepared to swear to am thing haVing no regard tor truth or justice or tair play. They intend to “put it 0Ver in court, as they do on the; r0a_d. This type of motorist has been given too much liberty altogether. There is a tendency to treat the “American tourist” leniently when he gets in trouble. with a view to encouraging the tourist traffic. The result is that one can scarcely go upon the highways without. coming in contact with one or more of those speed-crazed and unscrupulous gents. Nearly all the road tragedies. and there have been many this summer. have been plainly put to this fact and reckless driving. There was dust in the air; the road was nar- row. there was loose gravel. or the road was "greasy”. Well. when these conditions exist it is up to motorists to drive with care. It is unfortunate. it is disgraceful. that so many innocent people have to be killed and maimed before ac- tion is taken. All that is necessary is to enforce the highway regula- tions which we have. \Vhile our highways are in their present con- dition a motorist who drives at more than 35 miles per .hour in the presence of other cars IS a menace to others. and should be put off the Look Out For Those ed for the average Canadian tam; Dr. JNB. Grisdale, deputy Minist¢r of Agriculture was quoted as saying that this compared very favorably: with the earni of other classes of citizens. A anitoba farmer ac- cepts the 81,500 figureas reasonable but claims that after taxes, insur- ance, hired help, threshing bills, machinery, outlay clothing, doctor and church contributions there is less than half of the income left. Interest on capital and allowance for the labor of the farmer and his family are also to be considered so that in the end the profit is far from satisfactory. To this statement it may be answered that no accur- ate comparison can be made be- tween farmers and city wage earn- ers as wages are almost as variable as crop returns. In Canada at least it may be said that the standard of living is quite as high in the rural districts as in the towns. The wage earner with his $1,500 a’ year may seem to be a lucky man with a chance of enjoying life and saving some mone . Unfortunately for him there are ixecl charges, which must beltaken from his yearly income. There is six hundred dollars for foodâ€"the government estimate for a family of fiveâ€"and three hundred for rent, leaving only six hundred for clothing, car fares, life insur- ance, medical bills, church contri- butions and a score of -other out- lays. The prospect for a surplus of a hundred or so to put in the bank is not much better than' that of the farmer. Dr. Grisdale’s state- ment that the comparison was very favorable was true in a general way. To say that farming is un- profitable is to reveal a spirit of self pity that is not in accord with a self reliant, independent attitude that characterizes most Canadian farmersâ€"Elma Express. Mr. Farquhar Shaw of Walkerton has resigned as local issuer of liquor permits.

The cares of keeping up a home, of providing, often causes worries for those responsible; the problems of business often prove themselves a bugbear to many. Nearly all of us have worries that sometimes keep us awake at night and often we think our troubles are the greatest in the world. But just let us go back a few years and remember that awful sensation when we realized that the summer holiday was at an end and that we faced an indeterminate long period at school and perhaps we may smile at the recollection and sympathize with most of the children who are undergoing the same agonies just nounâ€"Palmerston Spectator. Exaggerated Newspaper Reports Simeoe county newspapers are taking exception to the manner in which the city newsliapers have written no the story of crime around Beeton. The Toronto even- ing nmvspapers are. accused of gross exaggeration. The Barrie Examiner points out that tl1_.er were 49 charges altogether and that most of these were conce erned with sex en incidents onlx. One Toronto new 5â€" paper had seven men working on the storx. The Examiner h is the following to say: ‘And now the peOple of Barrie and \icinity kno“ something of the intense Iixalry which exists in the Toronto ex ening newspaper held and of the methods employed by the metropolitan daily to ‘get the news. They also kno“ something oi the so-called Americanization of the Canadian press. .but how many per- sons al‘ter looking their evening daily over can give a fair, accur- Little Honey in Liquor Permits Real Worries THE < DURHAM CHRONICLE ate comprehensive accoimt of what it is all about? “But. surely there is a line of de- maroa‘tion in the extent to which the evening dailies will go to arouse their readers’ interest. If this thing keeps on the whole country will be topsy-turvy. To “tell the world" that a lady whos’e bonds are alleg- ed to have been stolen' by the robber Forsythe had been for thirty years secretary of the Women’s Auxiliary and can knit three pairs of socks a day, has revealed a secret probably very dear to the lady’s heart, inasmuch as she is a" single lady, and single ladies are, as a rule, very reticent as to their age. “Seriously speaking, however, fair play and the bounds of decency to say nothing of chivalry, should act as deterrent to the ambitious scribe.

At the "head of the St. Joachim Stud is Albert de Cap Rougeâ€"1489, admitted by everybody to be the best stallion of the breed in existence today. The number of brood mares runs from 25 to 35, and of total horses kept from 65 to sometimes over 100. The. main object is to conduct experimental breeding work. but. there are also quite a number of projects related to feeding,.housing, and management. As regards the French Canadian, the point is to breed a race of horses weighing around 1,200 pounds in ordinary condition, sound, hardy, full of en- er but docile, fast walkers, good 100 ers, and at home as well on the plough as on the surry. This kind of animal will always be profitable on the large number or small farms in eastern Canada, and a pair or them would be useful, even on the large farms, for many kinds of work, on the cultivator, for in- stance, where the pulling power of two draughters is_not required. Conformation, size or weight, and energy or “pep” are the qualifica- tions asked for. All horses, to re- main in the stud, must have these three requirements in a high de- gree, or be culled out. Some had won championships at exhibitions but gave progeny which were too small; others possessed size and conformation, but did not have the “pep” necessary to act as reserve power in a. tight pinch; others again had weight and energy, but not the conformation of the breed. All these were sold as work animals so that most of those remaining are of high quality.
