The Midland Free Press says :-- "We can help the cotton industry by changing our shirts oftener." What is the peace footing rule at Midland, and how about the poor man who has only one ? Those farmers who are doing all they can to break down their home market and depreciate the value of their land by destroying the nearby town, are likely one day to realise that they have killed the goose that laid the golden eggs.

Peterborough Examiner says :-- We should stir up the Canadian hen and make her realise that we are at are at war, and that every part of the country should do its best. Dur- ing the last fiscal year Canada im- ported 11,250,000 dozen eggs. The eggs came from Great Britain, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, and the United States.
