twenty million dollars two hundred thousand dollars mora than thoy were for tho preceding year tho ordinary oxpeii diture is m at eighteen million dollars but with statutory expenditures may reach twentythree mil lion dollars litis would seem to indicate a deficit of about three million dollars but tho revenue ap pears to have boon very conservatively pstlmated the deficit for tho year closing

yielded approximately 250000000 in 1010 of this amount about 05- 000000 was received for exports these figures easily constitute a record for tho canadian dairy industry in 1010 tho total value was estimated at 100000000 and the exports amounted to nearly 24000000 although tho production of most dairy products madd a fairly constant increase during flip period of tho war tho phonominnl record of 1010 must bo attributed in largo measure to murkot con ditions in common with other food products tllo prices of milk buttor and cheese rose rapidly owing to a world shortage then too the more rapid growth of urban centres as compared with tho rural population hasenlttfged the homo market without a corresponding increase in production it seems reasonably certain that dairying is destined to be an

taken at the public meeting of citizens on friday evening in tho matter of a suitable memorial for tho soldier heroes of acton jnd vicinity and the prospects ore now very encour aging for prompt action and a successful outcome the chairman of tho committee appointed at tho inception of the enterprise frankly stated at tho meeting that tho original committee or thirty five members was do nuwelldly for effective action tjjere was difficulty in getting a quorum and respond bid tfes were rather lightly assumed the new commit toe of five members has been given absolute power to solicit

gave quite a positive answer declining to rou the demand of a cash bonus to tho soldiers of canada who served during tho war the toronto star hays mit reply tohomaruther intemperate donttnclationsf tho canadian government for their treatment of return cd soldiers an exchange declares that no country in the world has done as much for its soldiers as canada has done and is still doing it is we believe perfect ly trup that no other country engaged in tho late war has done or is doing as much for her returned soldiers as canada is doing and no other country after any othor war did as much for its soldiers but after trll that is riot the point this is the twentieth century and canada is a twentieth century country ours is tho newest country of tho new world jli m up to us to doa grcnt deal better hi many things than has over been done in tho past and a great deal better than older nations which are run on ideas very different from ours arc likely to do but while all this is so there is this much in tho argument that canada lsdolng more than any other nation for returned soldiers it is a fact which those who discuss this question ought to acknowl edge the truth is undoubted that canada through her people and her government strongly desires to go further and do better on behalf of her citizen soldiers than any other nation is doing or ever has done prohibition sentiment
