W, Edwards, M. iP, Anthony Rankin, M.P.P, and Mayor J. M. Hughes. William Allison, the president, oc- cupied the chair, and in addressing] the members, stated that the associa- tion was in a flourishing condition. Many new members had joined the ranks. He remarked that on account {of the war, Premier Borden was { having a very hard time. "But, as Was always been the case," remarked the president, the sun is shining upon us. . , Thé election Of bfficers was then proceeded with, and resulted: President--Hiram Atkinson, Pittsburgh. First Vice-President- of Sydenham Second Vice-Pre des, of Verona, Secretary-----Hugh Horne, of Wolfe Island. Treasurer Pittsburgh, After the election of officers, May- or Hughes was called upon for an address, He congratulated the mem- bers on their selection for president. Referring to politics, he said that of John Blake, sident--Dr. Ged- George Stewart, of general election, son why the association's repre- sentatives should not/be re-elected, Mayor Hughes alsp referred to the war, stating "that "the farmers of; Frontenac county were to be con- gratulated on the part they had been taking to win the struggle, A. M, Rankin Speaks, Anthony Rankin, M.P.P., was call- ed upon after Mayor Hughes, and in | his opening remarks, he stated that the finances of Ontario were in a flourishing condition. He referred to the work being undertaken for the returned soldiers, and stated that there was nothing too goed for those men who had served their king and country. Mr. Rankin told of one case where a returned soldier who lost a limb in the war, had taken up telegraphy, and had qualified himself for a posi- tion with a railway, at a salary of $80 per month. The speaker also proposed Standard Dairy Act, and said that he had Been informed by the Minister of Agriculture that. this act would not be introduced for an- other year, so that it need not give the farmers any concerp this year. It had been left over in order to give the farmers time to consider the mat- ter. There was need, he said, of edu- cation along the lipes set out in the preposed act, » Mr. Rankin declared that large sums of money were heing expended by the Legislature to protect agricul- ture. In the history of the province there had never been so much atten- tion given to this branch of the work, N\_ Dr. 3. W. Edwards, Dr. gdwards said that over 85 per cent. ofall the surplus products the farther h to sell found its way across the ocean. And what did this mean? Simplx this, that so far as the farming population of Canada was concerned, the farms would not be worth considering if it were not for the fact that. Britain -zules the waves. Farmers would not have de- rived such a high price for their cheese last season, had it not been for the fact that Great Britain's navy stood supreme and for this rea- son the cheese was able to reach! England in safety. : Speaking about the navy, Dr. Ed- wards took a fling at the Liberals for knocking the Conservative proposi- tion to give the mother country three dreadnonghts, He said that the Chronicle, published in the old eoun- try, had the statement of the Admir- alty that if Sir David had had three more vessels he would have been able to wipe out the entire German fleet in one of the fights. The Comserva- tive government wanted to give three dreadnoughts, and had they been given we would not have had this submarine menace to-day. New Zealand had her battleship in the war, and it would have beén a proud ECZEMA ON FACE referred to the _in House. » All skin diseases such as eczema or salt rheum, itching or burning rash- es, eruptions, ulcers, boils, pimples, etc, are all caused by bad blood, and while not usually attended with any fatal results, may sooner or later develop into some serious blhod ii] -trouble, and the entire system Le- come affected. Burdock Blood Bilters, that ed and well-known remedy, will cleanse the blood of all its impurities, and by this means cure all skin digea.e3 an other blood troubles. Mrs. Ernest Andrews, Hamilton, 1,0nt., writes: "My face was covered with eczema and was so terribly bad I had to stay in t nouse, I had ten different doctors but got so tired of their treatment that | went and bought a bottle of Burdozk Blood Bitters, and it helped me so | pot on taking it. Now I am cured, have a lovely skin. "People who used to see me when 1 was so bad and see me pow will not believe it, but I always tcll them that nothing cured me but Burduck Blood Bitters." .

Dr Edwards had soniething to say about the position of the United | States, referring to the many thou- | sands of people shaking on the brink | of neutrality "The President wrote notes until he ran out of words. He hunted up | Webster's dictionary to get new words, and then' when he' hdd used he had the ar- get could up all he | k r-4 chives of an old King who died in {| South America searched and then penned some new words I say the | day is passed when We were perfect- { ly satisfied that the States would not | see us injured." Against Oleomargarine. { Dr. Edwards placed himself on re- cord as being opposed to removing the embargo on oleomargarine, "1 am opposed to anything of the kind," he said. "In my judgment it | wold be a very serious blow to the | farmers of Canada if it is allowed to | come in." | "The speaker said it would bring | fifteen cents per pound, but he re- { garded the scheme as "penny wise and pound foolish." The !speaker was ready to admit that there had been grafting. Mis. takes had been made. The war wag | a mistake in the first place. But | Canada was not the only place where { they were making mistakes. In Eng- land, France and Germany mistakes had been made too. When one coh- sidered the millions of dollars spent inCanada on the war, there had been a smaller percentage of graft and crooked work, than' in the money spent in this countrys As long as there was a world there would be crooked men--men who were ever ready to take an advantage and line their own pockets. It must be admitted that Premier Borden was at all times doing his best to keep in check the men who were try- ing to make themselves wealthly at the expense of the Government, Turning to the question of an elec- tion] Dr. Edwards said that he did No person could tell this "1 do say this," he added, "that if man in the British Empire more than another, who should mark his ballot, it is the soldier at the front, The bal- lots are overseas. The Government had them sent over there in readi- ness. In the election in British Co- lumbia it was shown that only about one quarter of the soldiers were able to vote, The war is so strenuous that it is hard "to poll the soldiers' vote." Before closing, Dr. Edwards re- ferred to his "pet subject"--that of reeruiting, and recorded another at- tack on the French-Canadians for not enlisting. He said it would be a shame to have the soldiers fighting at the front, deprived of a vote, while . the young French-Canadians remained at home, to vote and run the country, if they got a chance. He declared there would be a day of reckoning when the soldiers tame home. In the house he had stated that 17,200 French-Canadians from all over Canada had enlisted. He would go still further and say that in his estimation, there had not been 10,000 French-Canadians from all over Canada enlisted and gone 40 the front. WILL BE URGED ON CITY COUN- CIL BY REEVE SPANKIE. Ask Permission for Use of Thirty | Feet gan Easterly Side of Clarence Street for the Construction of Wharf--Township Would Do the Work: " Dr. William Spankie, reeve of Wolfe Island, will appear before the City Council at its meeting to-night to urge the claims of Wolfe stand rFsidents to wharfage at Kingston, The wharf that at present is used, at the foot of Clarence street, the Council has been asked to give up, and there is no other wharf in sight available. Dr. Spankie if per- mission is given fo y feet on the easterly side of (¥irence street a wharf one hundred feet long will be built and built quickly. He says the towhship can put it up at almost gne- half the expense the city can. The wharf will become the property of the city, Wolfe Island township be- ing given free use of it for ferry pur- pases. Kingston is the only place that the Wolfe Islanders can do business with, and they feel that the city shonld give them every facility for proper trade transactions. The reeve says the farms of the township would fill the wharf with stone, and that they have an option on lumber which could be used for the construction of the wharf.

He re- ferred to the fact that a Soldiers' Aid Commission had been formed in the city, and stated that no doubt many of the men would find their way to the farms, and for this reason he wished the farmers to give them every chance. After their service at the front tuey might not be able to do everything that the farmer might expect of them, but the mayor ap- pealed to the farmers to have patience, AA A A A AA lil OVER-WORKED MAN Bank Cashier Almost a Wreck--How He Regained Strength. © Kingston people wiljgrealize that this is one more link in the wonder- ful chain of evidence proving that Vinol, which contains. beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manganese peptonates and glycerophosphates, has no equal to create strengt Mr. Chas.
