PAGE EIGHT THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1934 Voice THE People Tyrone, Ont., Sept. 7th, 1934. Dear Edtor,- In thLs week's paper you quote the Pickering News on the present temperance -situation in Ontario. The article reads' part: "The great increase in te aount o! crunken- ness that now prevails is causing the gavern.ment ta consider steps ta improve the state af affairs. It basi now been s-uggested that a plebiscite be taken over the whole province ta find out whether the people are in faveur af continuing the present1ý law or adopting a prohibition law." May I di-aw your attention to an article in the Toronto Daily Star of Aug. 31st where R- E. Knowles gives an interview with Premier Hepburn? Speaking of the temper- ance question: 11 suppose the gov- erniment wili decide whether a pleb- iscîte is necessary on the temper- ance question-but aur sovereign policy is ta decide along lines which we believe reflect the will af the people. That's what makes or breaks governments; the observance af that policy or the def lance af it." 'How about a divided people?" askecl Mr. Knowles. The Premier replied. "Divisions we must expect. But sea-room must be given for al desires. ail coporate desires. There-t fore the local right to adopt or re- C ject must reign. But this I say em- pbatically- there will be no generai referendumn. Na one community will force its will an another. For in- Î stance, Grey County and Durhamni County are ooncqededly dry. Well. they must. if they desire, vote dryp and remain dry. Windsor, for in- f stance is notably wet. But neither Grey nor Durham must have any hand in forcing their views onA Windsor, or an any other commun- e ity in which a different sentiment prevails."C Now lit seems ta me everyone in j aur province should have a voice in C deciding whether our province shall be temperate or intemperate. Andh 1 do not believe we can ever calli ours a Christian temperate province t if any part afilit. such as Windsor, p is allowed by their own choice to v( remain wet. I do net think intern- perance can be forcibly kept within the bounds af certain communities. fc To try that wauld be about as in- C effective as trying ta keep a field T, clean, and allowing one corner ta grow up uncisturbed. to burclocks and sow thîstles. Na farmer would j try that. And if intemperance is allowed in certain districts, it will p. spread* as surely and as rapidly as R sow thistles. Na prohibition law wil be binding unless it bas province wide power.E Moreover we. as Christians. are as 5 marally responsible for the welfare ai youth of Windsor as of aur own town of Bowmanville and we must insist on the right ta discharge that responsibility in aur vote. Surely no christian governiment can refuse us the right ta carry out any christianI duty. Rom. 14: 21 reads "It is good 1,1 neither to eat flesh nar ta drink wine N nor do anything whereby tby brother jý stumbleth or lis affended ar is made jç weak." Certainly the beverage par- i lors are causing aur weak brathers ta stumble and fall down b ard. Tj Sa lit seems to me we as christians, A. are today challenged ta insist upon the rigbt ta vote against these sa- called beverage parlours either in Windsor or in Bawmanville or on1, the back concession ai anywhere. We have weak brathers in al ai Fr these places and Christ will net haid us guiltless if we remain quiet and alloiv these stumblingý blocks ti af beverage parlours ta remain in - their path.tr Premier Hepburn says: "Our sav- be ereign palicy is ta decide alang the ev lines which we believe reflect the will af the people." Let us then take Pr him at bis word and make the will va af the people very plainly knawn ni teahim. ab Rev. W. H. Hiincks af Toranto, as wben speaking in Tyrone last Sun-n day emphasized the f act that n!- gaod wark can be accomplished un-h less we are brave enaugb ta speak out. Sa came on ail you tempeanea.] People, speak out and let aur govern-h ment now tbraugb the pulpit, the 1o Press and ail other channels, that -s it is the wilof the people ta bave a 1 i referendum on this temperance )r question - and ta have it province- àl wide.

This spiritual advice is forc eveny individual. in every age. Gald bas stoad for that wbicba is neciaus and rare; for a standard afi value; and for riches. In one senseS ýches nepresent power. and offer anf ibundance of that which lis regarded ~ is desinabie. Humanely speaking, t mae"and "riches" are synon- mous, but no power af gald cana buy ealth, happiness or lufe eternal. f It lis recorded that Christ Jesus li isked, "What is a man pnofited, ift 'e shahl gain the whole world, and n ose bais own soul?" Of wbat profit , Sit if lave and hanmony, health u td joy, be absent and great wealtb resent? What are neal riches? [oney will not buy happiness, han- iony, health, or lufe. The corpareal a nses bave ever led mankind astray t! nits search for true happiness and 0 fe. si Christ Jesus said. "Heaven and ti înrth shahl pass away, but my wordî fi isill net pass away." Fallawing bais s' eachings ai fers the only way toaa iealth, happiness, and lufe eternal. 'X is lufe expressed the richest, fullest u aost satisfying sense of being ever ci ealized. In summing up humnan ex- P lriences, the Preacher lef t this re- 0 ird: -I have seen ail the warks that el ze done under the suni; and, behold q 11 is vanity and vexation af spirit."' 15 1o- h smi o earthly pas:- ___-1 News for the Busy Farmer During the month of July, 1934, 11,000,000 lbs. of bacon were expont- ed ta Great Britain as compared with 7,300,000 lbs. during Juiy, 1933, the total shipments of bacon for the first seven months of 1934 amn- ounting ta 81,504,600 lbs. as against 38,787,700 lbs. during the carres- ponding seven months af 1933. When packing eggs for shipment, a goadi practice is ta brush the hand lightîy over each filler as it is pack- ed ta make sure that no eggs are protuding above the top ai the f ill- er. Such eggs almost invariabiy will break in transit. Befare packing a case, examine the bottcm and sides. If any nails are baose or have f allen out, replace them. Value of Certified Seed Commercial potato growers whose stock is infested with d.iseases or contains mixed varieties would fi d it decidedly advantageaus ta secure certified seed. It is not the chie! purpose ai the Department o! Agri- culture ta encourage potato growers ta use certified seed with a vîew ta having their crops inspected for cer- tif ication purposes, because every patato grower has nat the necessary1 patience and time. or suitable loca-, tion and equipment, for growing1 certified seed. The abject oi the departme-rit rather is ta have grow- ens use the best seed abtainable for their commercial crap, and help ta keep dawn ta a minimum destruc- tive plant diseases, with their re- sultant senlous effect on yields. The use o! certif ied potato seed on many farina wauld double the yields now being obtained. Pig Feeding Methods Although there are several meth- ods ai preparing meai mixtures for feeding pigs, the following ruies are recommended as safe practices in pnaducing bogs ai the desired type: (1) Grind ail grain. Fine grinding .s recommended especially for young pigs. (2) Soak meal mixture bc- tween feeds; do not use too much water but feed as a fairly thick slop. (3) Hand feeding is the best method for secuning bags ai a de- sinabie type. (4) If necessary, a self- reeder may be used after pigs have reached the grawing stage ai devel- opment. (5> Keep pails, troughs and other feeding equipment dlean. Vlouldy on decaying matter will cause feeding troubles, and (6) Sup- ply dlean dninking water. Notification of Animal Diseuse Hanses, mules and asses ai ail ages and classes are hiable ta con- tract any ai the seniaus contagiaus diseases of the skin known as nange, scables or itcb. Mange is scbeduled under the Animais Con- agiaus Diseases Act, which requires .hat eveny owner, breeder, dealer or *etenlnary surgeon suspectîng the existence af this disease shaill in- nediately natify the nearest veter- nary inspector. Treatinent is car- ried out under quarantine, the fol- awing mixture being used officially for hand tneatment unden the sup- ervis'on o! an inspector: Suiphur. 2 pouncs; ail of tan, 8 ounces; raw linseed ail, 1 galion. Indigestible Poultry Feeds Of the slaughter bouse by-pro- lucts fan the feeding af paultry, neat meals or meat scraps are by fan the mast commonly used and are the standard animal pratein upplements ta poultry rations. They vary greatly in analysis ac- aording ta the amount ai bone matenial tbey contain but are us- ually purchased on a guaranteed analysis. 'The pooner grades con- aining quantities o! boof and horn shauld not be talerated as poultry feed as these products (boa! and harn) are practically indigestible ao pcultny. With a littie experience, it is possible ta tell at a glance ,'hether the brand is suitable for feed or nat, but, if in doubt, pour a ittie boiling water on a sample, and the smell rising should settie the uiatten even with the inexperienced. If the ador is f oetid the sampie is ni it for food. How Livestock Producer Loses In its latest issue, the Live Stock nd Meat Trade Review again re- Lurns ta the attack on the unecan- )mical habit ai overloading the live- -tack markets an Mondays. 'Union- bunately," says the Review, "the foolish practice ai offering the bulk ýupply on the Monday market was gain veny strangly in evidence, xith a mare or less disastraus effect pan pnices paid. and centainly in- ,reasing the cost ai marketing ta the roducer thnaugh the daily bold- )vers.
