Legislation providing for the taking of the On- tario referendum will be passed. It is expected the business profits tax will go the way of the luxury tax, that provision will be made by which sufficient revenue will be secured to' enable us to meet the year's expenditure without borrow- ing, and to that end economy will be the. watch- word in every department. ‘ Labor Government had survived because it had had the courage to do things that former Gov- ernments with large majorities were afraid to do. “The man who does not’value hislife can afford to be exceedingly courageous," he said, in illus- trating the attitude of the present Provincial Ad- ministration. There is little doubt that the next few months will see an amalgamation of the Liberals who were elected to support Mr. Dewart and the Liberal Farmers under the leadership of Premier Drury. The Conservatives and those elected as Conservative farmers, and the labor members, will naturally unite, as they are agreed on practically all subjects affecting the province, and are out of sympathy with the free trade policy so dear to the heart of Premier Drury and his immediate associates, Parliament has been summoned to meet at Ottawa on February 14th. The session will be notable in many ways. Premier Meighen will lead the house for the first time. The policy of his party will be written in legislation affecting the whole Dominion. The report of the tariff commission will be presented, and every item discussed in detail. In the discussion of the tar- iff schedules all parties and all individual mem- bers will be enabled to place their views fairly before the country. It will then be known who age for protection and who are for free trade. Speaking at Ottawa Thursday night, Premier Drury again announced that the administration of which he is the head will not live very long as a Farmers' Government, because, in the first place, the farmers did not start with the intention that there should be a Farmers' party. But he was of the firm conviction that the Gov- ernment would persist in some form as a Peo- ple's party. Mr. Drury said that the U.F.O.- Municipalities that have provided for the pay- ment of taxes in two instalments are convinced of the wisdom of this method. It is easier for most people to pay the amount fixed in two sums. Where there is but one date of payment, that date is about the first to the 10th of De- cember. \At that season work is not usually as remunerative as in the summer time, holiday de- mands are numerous, the winter's fuel must be provided. We would advise all councils that have not done so to pass the by-laws necessary to enable them to collect taxes in two instal- ments. . The Saskatchewan Government is given cred- it all over the Dominion for its enterprise in fun thering education. The following figures con- vey some ideas of the activities along public school lines. Last year $1,546,622.51 was ex- pended on buildings and sites, and $4,813,000.42 for teachersl salaries, an increase of $981,058.38. For all educational purposes $12,673,124.7() was expended. More and more are the people realiz- ing, the need for the best possible training of the young and are willingly contributing their pro- portion ot' the necessary outlay." Richard S. Howes, a former President of the American Bankers' Association, says: "Loose talk and gossip is the most dangerous of the vari-' ous conflicting-currents of the present time." He asks for calm, thoughtful consideration of pre- wailing conditions. The same advice should be heeded here. Canada is all right if we will all Work more and talk less. Let us encourage an Optimistic attitude for the future and develop in our own minds a firm foundation of belief in the future of our country, its resources and its people. _ . An indication of the extent to which illegal sale of liquor is carried on in Ontario is furnish- ed by the amount of fines collected in Windsor alone. 1n 1920 there were no fewer than 1895 cases proven and fines aggregating $340,000 col- lecfed. Since the present Government took of- fice crime and law-breaking has been more prev- alent than at any former time in the history of Ontario. The province is getting aqarger reven- ue out of the liquor traffic than it received when licenses were issued. Everybody is looking for activity in building the coming spring. There is a reduction in the price of lumber and steel, and a drop in the price of cement is almost certain to follow. The great difficulty in the Way is the question of wages. Carpenters are said-to have decided upon making a demand for $1.25 per hour. Even with reduced prices for material, such a rate of pay will ne- cessitate high prices for building and correspond ingly excessive rents, which the carpenters, like others, will be called upon to pay. _ In 1912 the value of horses, cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, in this province was $225,848,- SI2. Last year, according to the report just is- sued by the Ontario Government, the value in- creased to '330,00h032. Not such a bad showing.

WILSON, Manager fied for more than a century save by a common trust which has never been violated, and in the intimate friendship which that just confidence has maintained and strengthened, we have given to humanity a lesson which ought never to be forgotten in the determination of this supreme question," In reply to a, request from the New York World, which is conducting a crusade: for a gen-- eral disarmament by- Great Britain, United States, and Japan, Sir Robert Borden sent the following statement to the World: "I sympath- ize most deeply and earnestly with every reasonable proposal for the reduction of armaments. Untold sacrifices endured in the great war will have been wholly in vain if the nations are still to compete in a mad struggle for supremacy in the power of destruction. The economic folly of such a policy is too manifest to be gainsaid. Is there not a sorrowful and bit-, ter protest from millions on the verge of starva- tion in Europe and which must ring in the ears of every thoughtful person? Continued com- petition in armaments assuredly brings the nations to ultimate disintegration of exist- ing civilization, the foundations of which have already been rudely Shaken. How can it be otherwise if to those who ask for bread civilization gives armaments. In the boundary between Canada and the United States, unforti- t N, T_-e__i__ -V.-“4.- new the“ no, ALL\\. Lin; 'llell who moved from house to house. And most men, struggling for contentment all their lives, never learn that contentment is neither a place nor a physical condition, but a spiritual gift that in every man awaits cultivation. Contentment is inside; not outside. Izaak Walton tells of a man who had several beautiful mansions and often moved from one to the other. A friend asked him why he moved so frequently from one house to the other, to which the restless man replied: "ft is to find con- tent in some one of them." But his friend told him} "If you would find content in any of your houses, you must leave yourself behind you; for content will never dwell but in the meek and quiet soul." Yet, though, contentment has been defined and honored thus in prose and poetry, how many merrknow it when they meet it? We think we know what contentment is, but when we attain the things that we were sure would make us contented, we find no contentment in them. Paradoxically, we strive. to attain con- tentment by being as discontented as possible with what fortune has given us, like theiman Lenine has issued general instructions to his organized disciples throughout the world to start an active campaign of terrorism. The present time of industrial depression he regards as fa- vorable not only for propaganda but also for "direct action" in the cause of communism. therefore he urges social. revolutionists everyl- where to foment strikes and to organize 'demair. strations of violence against constituted anthbri- ty. Of course such a policy is foolish to the point of insanity, for if the Bolsherist leader's injunc- tions are heeded and obeyed, the effect will be injurious to the cause of which he is the_chie,f, spokesman.' But it is not, unlikely that foolish extremists imlarge industrial centres will try to give effect to his instructions. Police vigilance and 1?reparedness_are particularly desirable at this time.--Heraltf. T The Ontario Legislature meets on Tuesday of next week. The Opening will be accompanied by all the frills of other days. Cannon will boom, bands will play, the Lie1rt.-Governor will be cs- cOrted to the buildings b\ a, guard of honor, the ladies will be given the floor of the house, silks and diamonds will be displayed in profusion, iust as in the old days when the wicked Grits and profane Tories were in control. This "waste" formerly denounced by Premier Drury-he is now Dr. Drurymis embraced by the present gh- ernnhent, with an eagerness which shows the hu- man heart's desire for show, and at the same time exposes the insincerity of those who con- demned such practices until they had an oppor- tunity to control and enjoy them. . Municipal councils are organized for the year's work. The law requires that all moneys expended during the year shall be provided for in that year. Too many councils undertake works to be paid for out of current revenue. The cost is usually greater than,the estimate; fear of the-electors prevents the imposition of a sufficient rate to cover the year's expenditure, an overdraft follows, and the next council, if it does its duty, must provide for the deficit in addition to the sums required for the work of the year. Councils should, at the earliest date, decide upon their program, having in view the ability of the taxpayers to pay, and carry it out as faithfully as possible. Figures compiled by the Labor Departmeht for the current issue of the Labor Gazette, show a gradual reduction in the prices of " classes of food, except eggs and potatoes. The average cost of a list of staple foods, in sixty Canadian cities, at the middle of December, .1920, was $1184, as compared with $15.32 at the middle of November, $1A.t3 in December, 1919, and $196 in Decernber,,191l. The chief decreases took place in the prices of grain, live stock and meats, textiles, hides and leather, iron, building materi- als, and raw furs. The price of coal averaged somewhat lower, but that of wood was slightly higher. - a common and in the confidence have given TIMES & GUIDE, WESTON It is said that it is the first time this system has been attempted in the United States and that only the great speed of this, type 'of tractor made the feat possible. Several times the Fordson in question registered a speed of over twelve miles per hour. _ Windsor. Ont., Deer-- "Two men with a snow plow cleaned the snow from 42 miles of Highland Park side- walks in tour hours," says a. Detroit paper, which also published a photo- graph of-the Fordson at work. Richard B. Hughes, Superintendent of Public Service, declares, "At this rate tractors could clean all of the 126 miles of walks under Municipal Con- trol'in Detroit in seven hours. Form- erly this work has required 10 teams and 10 hum and if snowfall was con- tinuous, they were not able to repeat at once because the horses needed rest.” It is admitted that the most serious aspect of the milk situation which developed when the demand for tMyo- Jensed products fell off last fall, was the closing ot the old cheese factories, with their equipment scraped, even the buildings gone in some instances, the staffs of experienced makers dis- persed, and the organization com- pletely broken up. If I were planning a producers' receiving station. I would maker the 'manufactnre of cheese or butter the sheet anchor ‘of the busi- ness, and then sell as much milk or cream asf"t could find a market for at higher prices-J. A. Ruddick. DETROIT SOLVES The total area infested by the European Corn Borer includes over 3,000 square miles, But much of this is only lightly infested. By far the heaviest infestation is in the country of Elgin', between St. Thomas and Port Stanly. In several fields here, 90 per cent. or more of the plants were attacked, and hundreds of thousan-as of larvae were 'in some cases present in a single field.--Prot, L. Caesar, o. A. C., Guelph. Producers should not in these days be placed in a position of dependance on any single butlet for the disposal of their milk. The ideal arrangement, wherever it is possible, would be to have a receiving' depot, preferably under the control of the producers, equipped to manufacture cheese and butter, and in large establishments possibly condensed milk or milk pow- der, and for the sale of milk or teream.---J. A, Ruddick. We are very much encouraged by the co-operation of the creameries and produce dealers in cbnnectipn with the grading of creamery butter during the past season.-F. Herns. When sweet clover is thrashed with the ordinary grain separator, how- ever,, it is found that the unhulled seed is likely to be low in germina- tion/and that Whibh is hulled some- what higher, but, in both cases, the germin'atidh is considerably increased when the seed is run through a clover- huller or through a scarifying ma- chine.--Dr. C. A. Zavitz. If the present Dairymen's Asso- ciations in Ontario were changed to one strong Provincial organization it would be to the advantages ot the dairy industry of Ontario-Prof. H. H.. Dean. _ T _ _ Imports of cheese into the United Kingdom during the past year have exceeded the pre-war figures.--J. A. Ruddick, Dairy Commissioner, on; preameri business is advanc- mg at a very rapid Pape-r-in fact top fast.er the.best results in this branch buying stations are spripging up like mushrooms in a pasture field after a warm rain. Some of these are report: ed to be in anything but a, sanitary condition; and the methods of doing business are at least open to suspicion in a few cases.---" H. H. Dean. There were 17,196,301 lbs. of t%eese manufactured in western Orr. tario in 1920; the aver.age number of pounds ormilk required to make one pound'of cheese was 11.32. The aver- age price per'pound ot cheese was 27 cents. This is slightly less milk to make (me pound of cheese and is a halt cent higher average Price per" pound thanl in 1919.r--E. Herns, Chief Dairy thstri1cter for Avestern Ontarib. A mixture which is likely to give particularly good results as a pasture crop six weeks "after sowing in the spring is as follows: Oats, 80 pounds per acre, and white-flowering bien- nial sweét clover, 20 pounds per acre. In the following year the sweet clover crop could. be used as pasture, silage, hay, seed orvgreen manure as desired.--- Dr. C. A. Zavitz. A GOOD PASTURE CROP Great Advance in Creamery Busi- ness - Greater Care and Cleanliness Needed Markets for condensed and pow- dered milk at present are "draggy" and uncertain, but the future looks brighter. New outlets in China, Japan, India and other countries .where milk is not produced or consumed in quan- tity, must be secured to take the place of those furnished during war-tune.-- Prof. H. H. Dean.
