Later he moved to the farm of his wife's mother t*) oare for her in the last years of her life, %v(hich were only four. Then that farm passed to the younger son, Htiib Badgerow, who still owns it. Mr. Mclntyre then bought his farm in Ospvey Township, ,iust opposite Tryon College. Tliere he moved his family on March ISth, 1912, living there the remtainder of his life.

Open evenings. â€" H. H. MERCER, Markdale j nuvthev, Mrs It is not unnatural that farmers .\ho have to work hard, frequently .or little return, having enjoyjd .-onie years of g<jod times, should be , ager for .them to continue. That is l;uman nature. It is coming to be human nature, alsoj to expect gov- ernment to see to it. Our government has pix)mi8ed to do just that. Though we are not sure as yet as to the definite form their promises will take, we do have a bit of an example across the bor- der of w'hat happens when govern- ment attempts to "see^to it" in a big way. U.S. Secretary of Agricul- ture Charles Brannan. implementing the government policy of supporting prices, has found it r''cessary to l)urohase, among other things, some l.'SO million bushels of potatoes. Now here is the interesting point. While the government was holding, and eventually giving away, or vir- tM'iUy o-iviiifi- flM'iiy. the«p mililo»T4 ol' bushels of potatoes that couldn't be sold on the home marV'>t without distui-bing the government pegged prioev rntenirising importers, were bringing in 5,000,000 bushels of Can adian seed and table potatoes to sati^lfy the American home marlcet, potatoes wihioh, by the way, had paid quite an item of duty. The government had attempted, with reason, to cut its losses bv or- dering the potato acreage cut. it might have saved its breath. With an assured market at a guaranteed price the producer did his ufcmosf. There was no end of supply of po- tatoes, and no market that was will- ing to pay the support price for them. But an incident reported in "Time" put the final "Alice in Won- der! -md" twist on the whole projc-ct. It seems that farmer Ait Ward- ned of East Grand Fails, Minnes- ota, had a stockpile of some 80 tons of spuds. When the government agricultural agent finally got around to him, it didn't take long to figure that 80 tons of potatoes at $1.46 a hundred-weight netted a tidy $2,336. Farmer Wardner pocketed his cheosie with satisfaction. Then came the neat twist. He suggested, and the government representative adimitted, that actually they had all and more potatoes than they wanted. That set Wiardner thinking. That even- ing he sent a cheoue for $16 to the g<jvcrnment buying back his pota- tcea Bo ''". <'2r:' ; Imv^ivl-wo' .'i'- Ir. neither transaction had a single potato ."hanged bnnds.
