voted for the new system in creasing sales of liquor do not help legitimate busi ness nor the morals of the community toronto star tho mother town is growing rapidly that the mother town in england of which acton canada is the prototype is not a staid old country town without progress or development is amply verified by the new voters list for the parliamentary rnd municipal elections this list contain the names cf 42117 voters an increase of 7445 over the list of last year acton has become a modern progressive manufacturing town a credit to the county of middlesex and one of the most

operating with in this growing town is this aji premier ferguson is finding how hard it is to disassociate his pnrty from the influences and pay cfthe liquor interests when the party has once allied itself in the business the explanations that had to be given to the funds contributed to the finance committee of the toronto association by the liquor interests were very weak these funds were solicited by a branch of the party that has sent many repre sentatives to mr fergusons aid in fhe legislature the funds have been returned on the advice of the premier who is reported in the daily press as saying tc mr starr just think what a fine story could be wade if this letter gets into the hands of those who desire to injure the government if there had been no danger of the letter getting into the hands of those who desired to reprimand the government would mr ferguson have demanded the return of the funds mr ferguson is a very smooth politician but he has linked himself and party up with nn unscrupulous business when they adopted govern ment control he will find that the cost is more than lie reckoned the premier will have his hands full if he endeavors to personally supervise all branches of the party who are willing to accept funds from the liquor interests credit is due that these funds were returned but suspicion lies in the public mind if other funds at present unknown

to rank very high and it is durable that our people everywhere should be impressed with this fact canada occupies fifth position in import and export trade second position in exports and total trade per crtpita third position in favorable trade balance and first position in fovorable trade balance per capita inasmuch as canadas total trade for 1028 shows an increase of 270548000 imports 135- 200000 and exports 35348000 her position in international trade in 1028 was obviously well main- toined during the calendar year 1028 total trade amounted to 2590448000 compared with a similar tiadcof 2325900000 for the same period in 1927 this increase was greater than canadas total trade thirty years ago the outstanding feature in the trade of canada in 1928 was the onormous increase j rtiher wi

west at least the men have no monopoly of directing large and successful farmers cooperative marketing operations the saskatchewan egg and toultry producers ltd with a total membership of over 19000 nnd doing a gross annual turnover of approximately 600000 was organized by a number of farmers wives less than three years ago tljc first president was mrs john holmes of asquith saskatchewan and she still holds the office by popular choice only two of the 5ixmcmbers of the board of directors are men they were elected probably to prove that there is no sex superiority complex held by the overwhelmingly large number of women in the membership of the pool the saskatchewan egg and poultry pool was organized because the farmers vives regarded the system of individual selling as inefficient and under it the full measure of profits was not going to the producer last year the pool marketed 18000000 eggs and over half a million pounds of dressed poultry most of which went to eastern canada and the united states it is an interesting fact that mrs holmes came to western canada in 1005 from the village of ollcrton not- inghamshire england with her husband they settled
