German submarines, J.,, Wm‘~“WX The revelations of politician corrup- to tion in Manitoba are most disturbing i of to the pubic mind. The poneervatiVe to member for Morris org-tee the I ma nomination for the coming election Ethe stated that he did so on account of1T° revelations now being made before the ‘1051 Royal Commission, and he hoped the‘larl authorities would spain neither money- I OBI not time to punish all parties found , an} guilty. The story told by the atchi-{ tect of the Parliament Buildings un-; I der oath is one of the most repulsive l chi in Canadian political annuals. This peg is but another illustration of the per- pdl nicious etieet of the patronage system Ga which evidently obtains in Manitoba' Go as elsewhere in the Dominion. It has tiourished under. all parties in our Country since confederation, and has degraded politics and destroyed the usefulness of our public men. There should' be a demand for the public life to be purged of the evil intiuenoe, and the corrupt tendency of this pernicious patronage system. Exceptionally good organizing I capacity has hem shownmby the Do- l, minion authorities in meeting the de-I mend of "the manulfacture of shells in Canada. Brigadier-General Bertram Chairman of tthe Dominioo Shell ing the capacity which the captains of the work done to the manufacturers Association last week. Ilt is surpris- Committee, gave a brief outline of lindustry in Canada have shown-Vin [meeting the demand for munitions of Ewar at this momentous time. A ‘shell is a Complicated affair. In no i. single establishment in Canada except in Quebec arsenal is the complete ‘shell made. 130 firms between the At- lantic and Pacii-c are engaged in- the gwork of machindng and assembling. ‘There are 207 factories in \78 cities and towns carrying on various kinds lot work necessary to the turning out [the completed shells. The city ot 1oresis has now' a modern plant for the manufacture of shells. Its capa- lcity is limited to 75 per day, quite inadequate to meet the enormous de- .mand. General Bertram however as- “sures the association that Canada would soon be producing trom 40,000 ', to 50,000 shells dairy giving employ- ment to 60,000 or 70,000 workmen with a pay roll oi h1,M0,000 weekly. Canada is surely doing her share,in [producing war munitions. During 1914 the Commission. of Con- servation made investigations in con- nection with clover growing in Can- ada. Where the work was conducted in Ontario, it was found that many farmers complained oi not being able to secure good crops of clover in recent years. These failures may be due to soil exhaustion, insuffiqient quantity of seed sown periaere, poor or foreign seed. In the irwesti- gations condueted ‘it was inpariable found that where home-grown and foreign: seed were sown side by side, the home grown gave much better re- - W . suits. In some cases the difference in hardiness was sufficient to cause the crop from the home-grown seed to stand the winter, while that from the foreign seed was badly winter killed and sometimes a complete failure. Many f2mmsM%pasture the second crop of clover when probably it would pay better to keep it for seed. Now is the, time to plan for clover seed crop by cutting the hay crop early so as to give the seed crop a good chance to start. There are advantages from growing one's own seed. It will like- ly be sown more liberally and give better results than seed purchased, the danger of introducing new Weeds is removed, and as foreign upply tiriiut1yyyly besshort next year on ae- couni an the war, any surplus can be easily disposed of at paying prices. WESTON. ONT., FRIDAY. JUNE 18, 1915. Last week Secretary Bryan sprang a surprise on thelpeople of the Unit- ed States when, without any previous hint, he placed his resignation in the hands of President Wilson, The President, accepted it with deep re- gret. To: our mind The New York World in a recent issue makes the clearest explanation of Mr. Bryan's position. It says, “German sub- marines are killing American citizens and destroying American ships. The German Government refuses to abaty- dorr or modify this lawless method of warfare. Mr. Bryan thereupon, calm» yly suggests that We refer the issue to an international commission to re- 66 Fiat Justitia, Ruat Coelum,” l Ignorant and what seem to be mis- 'ehiesroas criticisms have lately ap- 'peared on the Canadian Government's pollicy regarding contracts made in Canada by the French and Russian Governments for munitions and other supplies required for purposes oi war. These have been brought to the at- tention of the Prime Minister. It T has been suggested that the Canadian Government should undertake to con- trol such: contracts and guard the in- terests of those Governments from the activities and questionable practices of middlemen. The Canadian Prime \Minister rightly disclaims any 188- 'ponsibility connected with these con- itrachs. In his statement given out in (reply to these criticisms, Sir Robert Borden is' very eeriphatie on the posi- tion of the Government, he says, "So tar as other purchases in Canadaby British or Allied Governments are concerned, they are-madeqby 2Ct,e11t1) tatives appointed by such Governments Without reference to the Government of Canada, which has no control over I anon matters, and could not interfere therein." The inference from the above statement evidently is that ' Franbe and 1tutmia,wi11 be allowed by j Canada to run their own show so far ' as munition contracts are concerned. in the meantime will continue to kill American citizens and sink American ships.. Only at the end of twelve months will the United States be free to take measures to protect the lives of such bt its citizens as survive and to safeguard such of Us ships as have managed to escapgthe vigilance of the Girmao sutymarfiircomzrshders." To talk of peace at present is but a loss of time. There is a monster at large and his ravages will notLand camot. 1yteehee1rssi1 by diplomacy or any form of 'itsurdrling. One of the signs of increasing strain on the German soldiers and German resources is the sugpression ol irttor- mation of her mttifytygh'ti'itieri1i'fs fill-11‘ tary commandant in Berlin has issued a {Qumran of the order issued some time' ago, prohibiting the publication or communication ot military infor- mation to the German people. He .says that the publication oi losses al- though based on. official lists can lay no claim to correctness, and in part give-greatly exaggerated reports as it is calculated to work groundless 11n- easiness among the people and O0ea- sions incorrect ideas abroad concern- ing German losses. The following is reproduced from the pen of a Saskatchewan correspon- dent:--"As a result oi the gambling in city property we have, surround- ing every city in the Province, large areas surveyed into lots. Machinery has been furnished by the Legislature by which these sub-divisions may be caneelled, and the lands in question will revent to farm property. At present they are gowing weeds and are a menace to the farming C0mm11r1- ity. One great problem we have to face is how to overcome the noxious weed pest which is constantly My- creasing. The return of the environs df our cities to_eultivatiim will help in the fight." IT ISN'T YOUR TOWN-ITS YOU. If you want to live in a kind of a town, Like the kind of a town you like, You needn't ulip your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike.
