WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1, 1938 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Other Papers' I . Opinions . | C'ONTROI. TUK COMMl NIST Iciest to livu on. There are many unifies to the question and the pro- posed legislation must be very ser- iously considered or it may create a lianlship fur many morttraKe holders who are absolutely dependent on that bit of interest for their daily bread. â€" Crecmorc Star. Parliament at Ottawa last week dis- cussed the question of how to deal with members of organizations ad- vocatinK violence. Rev. J. S. .Woods- worth, M.P., introduced the annual motion to repeal section U8 of the Criminal Code which makes member- ship in such an organization a crimin- al offence. While asseverating that he himself did not believe in force, Mr. Woodsworth opposed interfering with those who advocated the use ol force, pointing out that revolution had historical sanction. He added that a man could not be convicted of arson until he hud burned down a house, the inference being that there must be no interference with Communists until they have produced a conflagration. The Woodsworths of this country fail to see, or refuse to admit, tht danfrer which is created by organiza- tions which incite their members to violence. Kven though these gentle- men shut their eyes, the danger is there and must be guarded against. There can be no toleration in this country of methods which do not con- form to Canadian principles. â€" Alliston Herald. I'AKMEKS HAKU HIT About fifteen years ago a Brant furtnt r purcliased 200 acres of choice farm lands with a large brick house and bank barn on the premises for $14,000. The new owner paid about half the price of the farm tince his liurchase. He could not realize hall what he paid for the farm if it wert- lo be put up for sale today. At there ii a chattel mortgage on his stock, this farmer, after many years of hard work, is bankrupt. A few years more of low prices for farm produce will place many other farmers in the same financial position. The landowner, who has to meet heavy mortgage pay- ments these times, is to be jiitied. Of Lour.se the moratorium jirevents the sale of real estate if the interest pay-- ments are kept up, but the deferring of payments only delays the sale un- der mortgage. â€" Taru Leader. educatioiuil *u>i Agricultural esti- mates and, should it be put into cf- ;fect, by a redistribution bill which will lower the representation at Queen's Park from one hundred and twelve members to ninety or less. These economies will effect some small tiaving but more drastic meas- ui'es will yet have to be taken to balance the budget and to put some- thing a.-^ide to reduce the immense debt upon which the people are pay- ing an interest out of all proportion to the times in which we live. â€"Burks ^'alls Arrow. SLOWLY AWAKING INTEKKST O.N .M0KT(;AGES Premier Henry has intimated that he will introduce legislation at this session dealing with interest payment.'^ on mortgages. It is suggested that the mortgagor is to be protected even if the interest is not paid. This is^ a matter that should have very ser- ious consideration. Wc have in this town as well ats in variou.s others many retired farmers who are de- pending on the Interest from a few mortgages they possess for their liv- ing. .When this interest fails they find them.sclves absolutely without funds. The (luestion is what arc tlvey going to live on. In certain cases, no doubt, there arc money lend- ers who are just waiting for their chance to swoop down on thc! unfor- tunate and foreclose, but there are many more who are and have been very lenient. For instance Mr whom we know personally, holds a mortgage on a farm. For two years now he has received no interest. On investigation recently he found taxes had not Iteen paid for two yeais. He approached the farmer and said, "Pay up all taxes and I will furego the two years' interest." Of course in this case he was not depending on the in- If the daily ami weekly i)apers keep prodding they may finally wake the Federal and Provincial govern- ments up to the fact that the spend- ing orgy of the past ten years has got to cease and that drasti.' retrench- iiienis will have to be made in every (lepaitnient. Instead of being the leaders in matters of finance the gov- ernments have been the most tardy of all institutions to take any action to stem the tide of financial outpour- ings. Several years ago when mon- ey appeared to be the mo.'it easily obtainable of any commodity from government coffers and when about every fourth man on:; met in this dis- trict appeared to bo on the govern- ment payroll, many of the men who wci'e getting good salaries for little labor prophecied to the writer that the country would pay, and pay dear- ly, for the tlun apparent liberality of those in office. While other me : could see that continued speiulir <, could not go on indefinitely the var- ious governments closed their cy^s and continued to issue its paper ar.d when the treasury was empty relined it with mone'Y borrowed at exorbitant rates of interest. .Well, they have surely got the Dominion in a jam and only now after three years of wallow- ing is any real attempt being made to work a way out. Ontario is ap- parently to take a lead by reducing MAXWELL Mr. Mitchell from Collingwooil township, who has rented Mr. K. J Morrison's farm west of Maxwell is busy moving and expects to be moved in this week. We welcome them t" our community. Our enterprising butcher, Mr i'riestly has been busy storing ice and getting ready for the sunmior business. He is also fixing up a shop in the village, which will make things convenient for customers lo get their meat supiilies. The Women's Association of the United church of Maxwell will hold their meeting this week at the home of Mrs. Jos. Wright. The W. I. expect to have a sewing course either next week or the week following. P'tOl'EIN IN R.VTIONS The importance of protein in live- stock rations and their production or the farm was a topic recently dis- cussed by J. C. Steckley, professoi of Animal Husbandry at the O.A.C. Legume hay was mentioned as an im- portant, ingredient in a protein-rich ration and of course such byproducts as cotton-seed meal and linseed oil meal were mentioned as very useful ingredient.^. Prof. Steckley declared that soybean meal w^as proving to be a very useful and rich protein in- gredient. It carries about 35 per- cent, protein and for dairy cows par- ticularly it can be utilized apparently up to 2'J per cent, of the ration. Hi. jondemncd it, however, a'-, a feed for ho;rs. Ground sweet clover seed had also proved to bo of sonje use as a protein ingredient, but it is not highly palatable and can be fed only spar- ingly. The Late Mr^. Aicox It was with startling sudd(enes.< that Mrs. W. J. Alcox of Orang*' Valley passed away on Saturday last. She was about the house as usual during the morning and without warn- ing dropped to the flour and was dead before those in the room were able to reach her. She had not been in robust health for some time but there was no indication that the end was so nenr. The late Mrs. Alcox, whose maiden name was Mary P^lizabeth Fry, was a daughter of the late Mr. anil Mrs John Fry and was born at Nobieto-' in 1872. After her marriage to Mr Alcox they resided at Nobleton foi a few years before moving to Van- deleur. About 15 years ago the> moved to the present homestead on the highway. She is survived bj five sons and one daughter, namely. Ross and Wellington in Markdale: Delbert on a farm adjoining the home- stead; Leonard and Clarence at home, and Mrs. Wesley Smith at Rock Mills. Three brothers and three sisters also survive, Charles at Dauphin, Man.; James at Nobleton; George at Nash- vilSki; Mrs. Jos. Rogers, Mrs. Ed Penfield and Mrs. Jas. Simpson in Toronto. The funeral took place on Monday to Markdale cemetery. Rev. ,W. J. Scott of FIcshorton had chargo of the services at the house and grave and was assisted by Rev. T. O. Miller of Markdale. The pallbearers were Messrs. Charles and George Fry, Fred and Cha.s. Boland, W. Swanton ard W. Hutchinson. The floral tributes included a pil low from the family; sprays from Mr. and JMrs. Wesley Smith, sisters, Mrs. Rogers and family, Harrison family L.O.L. No. 500 and neighbors. Among those from a distance at the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. C. Fry of Dauphin, Man.; Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Fry and daughter of Nashville; Mrs. Simpson, Mrs. Rogers and Mrs. Penfield of Toronto. â€" Markdale Stan- dard.

The Ceylon orchestra play- ed excellent music for the dancing. fiUADING AND PACKAGING RESILT IN BEITER PRICK "Much has to be accomplished in the way of grading and packing be- fore the Ontario farmer can expect prices for his product, equal to tht 'laid down' value of similar imported products." New Zealand farmers, or producer.' on the Pacific Coast, because of theii distant markets, perils of transpor- tation, and competition of home- grown products on those markets are forced to pay more attention tc grading, and attractive packing. Farmci's of this Province, however, in most lines have not been forced t" do this, except in those jn-oduets where there is an exportable surplu- Thcrefore, until th<' :anic attention in packing and grading is given farm products fi^r domestic consumption it will be extremely difficult to ov- grni^e home markets.
