Whether the cook he a professional chef or the young bride with only ‘him" to please. the stove must furnish these three essentialsâ€"steadiness and control of heat. even baking facilities. and a grate that gives plenty of air to the fire with a saving of fuel and convenience in handling. The Divided Flue Strip distributes the heat evenly. front on well as heck of oven. thus securing against failure in belting. There is no better test of practical stove work than thin oven control. Are you always dusting? The Gurneyâ€"Oxford Rever- Iible Grate saves dirt and labor: one-half turn and the ashes nre out. while the interlocking teeth grind the hardest clinker. For these three problemsâ€"on which all cooks are agreed-the GURNEY-OXFORD RANGE has three answers. three. good reasons yhy. GURNEY-OXFORD RANGE THE DURHAM CHRONICLE market a friendly and certain one,-â€"Whi)ch it is {notâ€"it is. speak- ing generally, a necessity nei- ther to the Canadian farmer, nor THE MRKET 0F NINETY MILLIONS to the Canadian manufacturer. As President Taft himself points out, Canada is so far north that her agricultural products are practi- cally limited to Wheat, barley. rye, oats. potato-es, live cattle. horses and dairy products. The United States sends to Canada a much larger quantity of potatoes than Canada sends to the United States. About fifteen times as much of meat and dairy products are exported to Canada by the United States than are imported by the United "States from Canada. Fruits in large quantities ,and of all kinds are imported by .us from the United States. The only agricultural products which will cut any figure in the export trade of Canada to the United States, are wheat, barley, rye and oats. The World price of these four import- ant cereals can be fixed‘neither in Canada .nor the United States, but in Liverpool alone, Where the sur- plus from this continent is dis- posed of. Reciprocity will NOT give our farmers any better pric- es for these cereals, and the soon- er the fact is recognized, the bet- ter__for the farmers. The miners of Minneapolis, and other American milling centres are naturally keen to get Canadian Wheat, for under present condi- tions, they cannot get enough wheat to keep their mills going to their full capacity. Moreover, the by-products of bran- and ghorts from the flour mills would _ v _. v--v “LU u- _---v v v u.“ be greatly increased in conse- quence, much to the benefit of American dairy farmers, and those engaged in raising cattle and Stock. Yes, it Will be a great thin-g for the Americans to get ,‘Canadian Wheat to grind into flour, and .to export to Eng-land. 'If Canadian Wheat is ultimately ;t0 reach England in the form of flour, by .Way of the Minneapolis mills, and American lines of [trans- Dortation, Where does the benefit to Canada come in?

The echo, loud enough to be heard all over the land, answers “where?” As Mr. Knox, the United States Secre- tary of State, said in Chicago re- cently, “the free admission of grain from Canada places the con- trol‘ of grain in the hands of American grain growers.” a i That Reciprocity“ with the United States would imperil Imperil unity and would compel Canada to adapt itself to American continental ends. rather than to British Imperial ends, is ac- cording to The Chicago Tribune, one D! the most important newspapers in the United States, a reasonable sup- sition. To quote its own words: The British tariff commission con- bends that American and Canadian Reciprocity would imperil Imperial ity. It is alleged that it would do so g; diverting Canadian titde from Bri- tish into American channels. It would compel the Dominion to adapt itself to American. continental ends rather than British Imperial ends. These are reasonable apprehensions, which furnish a good argument for the con- irmation of the Reciprocity_ agree; fnent. No senator should be so inter-a sated in Imperial unity as to vote the Reciprocity Bill so as not! Wigspteril it. ' No senator shOuld be willing to vote against a measure caI-‘ mated to expand American at the ex.4 ' of British trade. by making, we a still better market tor Amen-i mmm’.’ - ~.. mar-smut or 2111; per cent. in the duty on upper and fine leathers, the duty formerly stamiing at 17% per cent. This re- duction was all the more remarkable in that there was absolutely no ves- tige of agitation for it in Canada. Not only did the Canadian users of these leathers not ask for the reduc~ tion, but they have since expressed strongly against it on the ground that it would wipe out the Canadian man~ ufacturers of these fine and upper leathers, thus forcing them to buy from the American trust, which, of course, means ultimately much higher prices. The manufacturers of these leathers were not consulted in any: way whatever before the reduction,“ and in the absence of any discussion of this item it struck them as a bolt from the blue. It is evident that the pressure resulting in the lower duty was exerted by the American tanners.‘ l LL16 enormous development in manâ€" ufacturing west of the Lakes in th, past three years was emphasized by' a leading business man of Winnipeg. when speaking in Ottawa last Janu‘ ary. He said: “Not only Winnipeg} but practically every other town an ' city in the West is rapidly develo ing manufacturing industries. Bran don has a number of important man ufactories; Medicine Hat has esta lished an American clay product fac tory which is being successfully con ducted. Rolling mills are building a Medicine Hat by the American peOple’ who built the rolling mills at Winni- peg, now in successful operation] Calgary has large cement works, flour! mills, and so on. And all these towns and cities are straining every nerve to‘ build up manufacturing industries to: assist in taking care of the population‘ which is unemployed during the win-‘ ter. Manufactories Will naturally go; where the market is, for close 'prox imity to the market overcomes many% other obstacles. It is true, we are. somewhat remote from the sources of; our material; but that is largely com-é pensated for by having a market at} our doors and being in close touch1 with our customers. It is our Opinion‘ and, I believe, the opinion of the West}. certainly of the manufacturing indus-‘ tries, that any lowering or interference with the Tariff would be a serious blow to us and what we have been. endeavoring to accomplish. Speaking‘ particularly for the Western manufac-? turers, I hope that nothing of that kind will be done. The country now is not suffering. Any honest, able-bodied; man in the West can get employment: at the highest wages, I believe, in the. civilized world. The revenues of the country are buoyant and its credit is; high; the machine is in good opera- tion." I d v A Reduction In Duty Practically Wlped Out the Fine Leather Industry As a result of that sacrifice of Capiâ€",' tal and Labor in Canada, importations of fine leather have increased over 100 per cent. in the last year as the direct result of the lower tariff which: has allowed the over supply of Ameri1 can leather goods to be dumped into the Canadian market. At least six flourishing Canadian industries, in the‘ aggregate employing upwards of 500 skilled mechanics, were forced to close the departments of their faci tories given up to the manufacture of upper and fine leathers because they could not possibly compete with th wealthier and more powerful estab? lishments in the United States. That a protective tariff is necessary to the industrial welfare of Canada and the lack of sufficient protection has been the cause of numerous busi- ness disasters within recent years may be proved by many examples. One of the most conspicuous of these. however. is the collapse of several flourishing branches of the Canadian leather industry since the Albany treaty of March, 1910, when Hon. Mr. Kidding. representing Canada, agreed with the United States on a reduction In the fiscal year 1910 the imports of calf kid or goat, lamb and sheepJ skins, dressed, waxed or glazed, into Canada from the United States: amounted to 195, 054 pounds, value at $184, 493, while in the fiscal yea 1911, with the Iowa duty the imports, amounted to 404,821 pounds, valued at] $341,832, or an increase of over 100‘ per cent. ‘ Surely an example such. as thii‘ should sober the reckless agitator f0 free trade. Surely it points a moralzj Reasonable and stable tariff protec, tlon for Canadian industries. 1 What a Chicago Paper Says of Recl-' procity - ‘ Western Factories Have Been Devel- Oping, Why §nujf Them Out?
