We cannot understand why there should be any objection to Germans retaining their own language after learning to speak English. It is an advantage for them to speak more than one language, and if they also retain the best cusâ€" toms of their homeland they are the better citizens for it. ‘ Census returns for 1981 showed that there are about 250,000 people of German descent in the prairie provinces. Germans coming to Canâ€" ada to make their homes, in the great majority of cases, have in a surprisingly short time learned to speak the English language and at the same time retained their own, which is most commendable. Authentic figures at hand show that the percentage of Germans who canâ€" not speak English (exclusive of children under ten years old) are 4.86 in Manitoba, 4.10 in Saskatchewan, and 3.6 in Alberta. Over the longer settled parts of Canada the ratio is 2.70. And the ratio among Canadianâ€"born or other British born of German descent, who cannot speak English, is only oneâ€"half of one per cent. People from Germany and other lands come to Canada because they have been told that it is a land of liberty. Because they may not have had the same freedom of liberty in their homeland is no reason why Canada should restrict their liberty here. "One cannot imagine that any colony of 120,000 Canadians would be welcomed in Gerâ€" many on any terms, and certainly not that it would be allowed to engage in activities the avowed intention of which was to keep aliveâ€" in Germanyâ€"Canadian customs and the Engâ€" lish language."

"Mob rule" which showed its head in several centres in Ontario this summer, was given a setback by Premier Hepburn‘s firm stand and prompt action in arresting a score or more of ringleaders who threatened to get out of hand when they kept a reeve of one townâ€" ship, adjoining Toronto, a prisoner until he agreed to meet demands for increased relief Premier Hepburn‘s investigation â€" has shown clearly that the Red agents, promoters of Bolshevism, have been busily engaged stirring up trouble in the unemployment camps and it was high time a stop was put to it. It should be clear to all that the governments, Federal, provincial and municipal, are doing their utmost in providing adequate food, clothâ€" ing and shelter for those in need. Complaints are promptly investigated and help given if deserving. Those on relief are oftentimes found to be living better than the workingman who has steady employment and helps to pay the taxes which provide revenue for the purchase of foodstuffs and other necessities for families on relief.

That the Hepburn government is deterâ€" mined to remove from the public service marâ€" ried women whose husbands are employed is seen in the recent dismissal of seven such women. And the government should have the support of people in its effort, to distribute work fairly. The Labor party in England gained a signal victory in England recently when its candidate, Philip N.

The editorial in part under| Ati present m the heading "Firing and Hiring Registrars",|demonstration The dismissal of Mr. George Weekes from the post of Registrar of Deeds for the West Riding of Durham County which took effect last week will be generally regretted, except by those political wardâ€" heelers who enjoy scalping other‘s jobs just about as much as the Indians enjoyed scalping their enemies in the old days. The only difference was that the Indians were iinonnt of civilized ways, whereas the party wardheelers have the benefits of civilization to guide themâ€"which apparently they do not obo,rve. a vacancy is available, but we do not believe in firing one to give work to another, providing said appointee has sense enough to leave politics alone when he gets the job. Premier Hepburn supported the Board of Censors in banning "Green Pastures", a picture shown in Ontario theatres. He termed it sacriâ€" legious and with a suggestion of the burlesque. Since some ministers, both Catholic and Proâ€" testant, could see nothing harmful in this reâ€" ligious drama, Mr. Hepburn will allow it to be shown although still holding to his opinion in regard to the picture. On this occasion, as in the past, we do not hesiâ€" tate to say that we do not approve of the system of firing government employees to make way for wardâ€" heeling politicians, whose prime interest in politics is not the welfare of the province but the personal pocketbook. We do lpprove‘ of a government giving jobs to its own supporters when in power, and when | Motorists, it is suggested, should heed suggestions for safety and not always insist on right of way. Dim your lights when apâ€" proaching a car, avoid abruptly cutting in, signal when stopping or making a turn, and accidents on highways will be fewer. There is no question that if motorists would exercise the same courtesy when driving as in the rest of their daily work or recreation there would be fewer accidents. True courtesy among motorists will save hundreds of lives and thousands from serious injury. The past fifteen days have been anxious times for the farmers both in Ontario and Western Canada. For five years they have worked hard against the combined hazards of drought and low prices. During this period inâ€" comes dwindled and this in turn was reflected in industry in Canada. The past eighteen months the outlook has brightened in better prices for produce and maore favorable weather conditions. Reports indicate that the west, after weeks of drought, have had considerable rain the past week and the crop outlook is much improved. In Ontario, wheat, corn and hay, and other grains, made good growth before the dry spell and a fair harvest is assured. And with the devastated fields due to drought in the United States, wheat prices promise to hit the dollar and over mark. In an effort to cut down the great toll by automobiles, the Ontario Department of Highâ€" ways has adopted the slogan, "Try Courtesy". It is a commendable campaign and is receiving the support of the public press and citizens generally. ANXIOUS DAYS FOR THE FARMER | "TRY COURTESY" A GOOD SLOGAN | EDITORIAL NOTES in the to sell ‘The enterprising Richmond Hill Agricultural Society which last year conducted a very succeseful competiâ€" tion for ‘"Best Managed Farms", this year is planning a change. It is now proposed to have a contest for the "Best Plowed Farms". It will be inâ€" teresting to learn if the York Counâ€" ty farmers who win so many prizes at plowing matches will be equally successful in this contest to include all plowing on the home farms. For larger plantations a poison bran mixture is recommended. Bran 25 lbs.; Paris greer & b.; Molasses 1 at., and Water 2 gas. The bran and poison should be mixed together while dry, after which molasses should be added. Use enough water to bring the mixture to a crumbling condition. ‘The mash should be «pringled lightly around plants in the ‘evening, This mixture is poisonous to chickens and birds, as well as cut worms. The Markham Agricultural Society is contemplating a departure from the fleld crop competition as usually conducted. Instead of choosing one crop the Directors have decided to accept entries for fields of hoed crops. Such fields may be required tc have a minimum acreage of corn, the other crops to include potatoes, mangels and turnips, all of which are usually grown in the "hoed crop" fields of the district. Branch has given advice to woodlot owners when sought by them, but only in the past decade has it given the initiative, and only in the past found scattered along the highways in southern Ontario. ‘Their object is to demonstrate to the owner and the public what may be done by applyâ€" ing forestry methods to the manageâ€" ment of woodlots for continuous proâ€" duction.

The application should not be used after butbs commence to form, as it is very poisonous. If it is not proposed to treat Taâ€" aishes, severe losses may be avoidâ€" ed by broadcasting seed instead of sewing in drills. The same treatment will give bene ficial control to Onion maggot, if at icast two applications are made, at the proper time. To whom be glory for ever and ever, Ameon.

However, this conâ€" dition need not be fearsome as it sounds, because every mother may protect her children by taking the very simple precaution of pasteurizsâ€" ing her own milk in the home. It is better, of course, if arrangements can be made for a supply of pasteurâ€" ized milk but if this is not obtainable, raw milk can be very easily pasteurâ€" ized in the kitchen. ‘With gas, electric or coalâ€"oil stoves it is a simple matter to adjust the heat to hold the milk at around 140 to 145 degrees F. and on a wood or coal range the duble boiler can be moved back, away from the fire as soon as the proper temperature has been reached.
