creamery co stouffville ontario we are open tuesday thursday and satur day evenings notes and comments we are informed by a local uiilk producer that farmers selling cream on tho toronto market have been notified to cease the practise and henceforth all cream sold in toronto must go through the regular chan nels of the city dairies there may be good ground for this action for the city bylaws provide for the in spection of ail stables and places where milk or cream is produced for sale in toronto cream sold on the market escapes this inspection and hence the new regulations pro hibiting its sale ithas been sug gested on the other hand however that the new law is enacted at the instigation of the city dairies who have to submit to the rigid inspec tion of city olhcial3 that some funny laws are enacted is quite true one of the more recent to come to the at tention of the public is an ontario measure which prohibits undertakers from advertising funerals for some time several firms in toronto have advertised the price of funerals and this has led to a big cut in fuueral expenses to the general advantage of the public now the powers at queens park in response to the plea of the undertakers association forbid the advertising of funeral rates on and after january next we suppose the undertakers defend their stand on the ground of etiquette or nonproffessionalbut lie duty of the government should be to protect the public regardless of these fictitious pleas the following information is comp iled and sent from washingtondc during the first six months of 192s canada

have won oniy four out of the last fifteen elections since 1861 twice with grover cleveland and twice with woodrow wilson- wilson the only recent democrat owed his first victory to a split republican
