It is time therefore, for the gov ernment of this country to protect the Canadian workman from 48 cent German labor. The Conservative party has declared [most emphatic ally against such ruinous warfare from abroad, and on page 1495, Hansard, 1903. Mr. R. L. Borden dealt with this very question as fol- lows : "To so frame our fiscal policy that labor in Canada should be paid a fair living wage. remembering always that our laboring classes and therefore our producers and manu- facturers cannot be expected to compete on even terms with coun tries in which the condition of life among the laboring classes is alto- gether different. We do not de sire to reduce our laboring popula tion tothe low standard of living, to that hard fierce struggle for ex i<tence which prevailsin many coun- | tries. We do not want our laboring classes to compete without protec tion against the pavper labor of any country." This is how the Conservatives propose to deal with Germany's 48 cent labor.

"The subject of Nature Study, which is engaging #0 much attention, could be taken up with much great- er zeal if school gardens became gen- eral. It would be exceedingly desir- able if the operations of agriculture could be made more attractive to pupils in the rural districts. Nature study will de much in this direction, and, with the establishment of a school garden, a teacher will have additional facilities for making a success of the subject. "That the Legislature is alive to the importance of this mutfer is shown by the fact that $1,000 was voted last year for thé purpose of making a beginning. Already much has been done to create an interest in school gardens in the County of Carleton by Inspector Cowley. It is intended to make a grant to each school that establishes a satisfactory school garden. Too often the school grounds are far from being at- tractive. Much has been done al- ready by tree-planting on Arbor Day, but it still remains for such grounds to be put in still better shape by the establishment of school gardens. The farmers of the commun- ity will doubtless be ready to assist teachers in this movement.
