NOTES AND COMMENTS The King Government may pa,-ss laws, but the Senate rules the roost. I-f all ,boot1eggers had to pay an income tax our national debt would lsoon be paid. Hon. G. H. Ferguson s Cabinet has been picked and re-picked sev- eral times, but protbazbly it isn't just right yet. It hurts to have to buy next win- te1"s coal at this time of year, but it would seem to be the part of wis- dom to do so. The thanks 01' the C011se1'v:ui\ e workers is due the Liberal and U.F.0. \vo1'ko.1`s who bx'ou.:11`t so many Wright su.ppor1e1's to the polls on election day. A leading tailor is advocating wider coats and looser trousers for men. \Ve11, this is 21 broadening- out period all round. The Chief of Police recommends that a by-1aw be passed pI'ohibilin:.', chickens from rum1i11g at 1zL1`ge. Why not hu\'e them t:1.:.;:.;0(l ? If an employee 01 the town is not. capable or eicient vhe memibers of the council should know about it and act in the best interests 01' the town, but pGI'S0ll:1l prejudice should not be zLIIo\ved to inuence those who are the 1'ep1'csen1z1lives 01' the people. Hon. G. Iioward Fergiison enters upon his task 01' governiiig Out-.11`iu with great responsibilities and on- portuiiities. O11l11I`i0 looks to hi.n1 for :1 square deal. What is wanted is e`1cie1_1cy, honesty, economy and 1`eli`encl1ment, so that expenditures will be b1`o11_:hL within the 01-bit 0t` 1'cvenue.

[nun hnainn;-can Page Two I `The Farmers Government was tle- 1 feated, not because any other class ` objected to having farmers in the Legislature, but because the people objected to class rule, which was not in the best interests ot` any class. .\Ir. Drut'_v s broadening-out campaign was an acknowledgement that the I~`at'mers Government must attract support from the towns and cities, and so cease to be a P`a.1'me1's Government, or go down to defeat. The farmers themselves realized that gove1'nn1ent cannot be carried on by _a class, and to a large extent they Itinna ham: gone back to old party affilia- Silllt` UL'U1lUul_V \VlLll wuluu Auunu uals govern their own businesses. In the defeat of the Farmer Government, J. J. Morrison sees the salvation of the U.F.0. organization. If defeat had not come, the move- ment would have disintegrated, be- cause the principles for which the ` U.F.0. came ill!/O existence were be- ing forgotten. There is no reason why the U.F.O. organization should go out of existence. The farmers, by their organization, can do much towards solving their many prob- lems. The voice of the farmers must be heard in our Parliaments and it is through their organiza- tions that they can best decide on what is for their mutual benefit. The farmers have found out that we cannot have class rule, and that We must all Work together if our country is to prosper. The Parliament of Canada was prorogued on Saturday after a ses- sion lastinig five months. The last hours were spent in conferences be- tween Senate leaders and the Government. The Senate refused to ratify the Government's plan to authorize the construction of Can- adian National branch lines, in- volving a three-year program, to cost something over $28,000,000. The Senate took the view that to equip these lines after being buil-t would involve a total expenditure of upwards of $100,000,000. The bill \vas amended by the Senate to provide that the Government guar- antee should be extended only to securities, the issue of which has been authorized by Parliament. Little progress had been on the Re- distribution bill and it is held over till next year. The Premier, how- ever. assured the House that redis- trihution would be bromzht about before any attempt would be made by the Government to bring il.l)0lll an election. .\h`. J. .\I. Lytle, of Roland, Mani- toba, recently purclmsed :1 fine pair of C1_\'desdz11e rzeldixigs in Ontario for $890.00 which shows that good horsr2;< still bring high prices. 0110 of these was purchzxsed from .\Ir.

Sitiiply the ap- plication of those qualities we have referred to--exie1'gy, courage. econ- omy and etli-ciency, and under pres- ent-day conditions the rettvrn is sure and speedy. A ver_\' percent- age of i`a1`ms owned by farmers in this country have been acquired and paid for in the farmer's own life- time. For the present and future generations there is exactly the saute opportunity. True, with each generation, and perhaps oftener, we may have to change our type cf crops to meet changing market te- _- quirements, but surely that is a trifling task compared with that 01` those who had to establish them- - selves in a. new country, create their 5 farm, their community, their mar- . kets and their civilization. . nu.-tun Hm war vmn-2 tho f:1rmer.
