I am pleased to see that your paper is also taking a stand in this matter, and hope that both of the Durham papers will keep talking about this till a Board of Trade is formed, and new factories are being assisted in the best manner possible. In your editorial of last week, and also in the letter of “Booster” the nail is hit fairly on the head when you both make mention of the lack of co-operation amongst the merchants and wealthy men of the town. Let me give but one example. It is not a year since a representative of one of the commission firms in Toronto asked for a free buildin , in which to buy on its merits, t e butter, e gs and poultry of the farmers. lfire was a chance of the farmers firt- ting_cash _for their “good qua ty goods, and turning it over to the merchants, who are alwa s growl- ing because some one rings in bad butter, or wants credit {or some purchase. Yet, what was done? Nothing. I never heard of any moryer in this matter. It is the same all along the line, no matter what is wanted. Not long ago. there was a reat big kick against giving Wm. cGowan some assistance in establishing his oatmeal factory, which is bringl much money into the town, an giving emmyment to some ten people. ny other instances could be given. At present there is one water power in the town which is not being utilized to any extent. and there in enou h power around the town to turn Ih light and power to many tactorieu, it those who are wilhing to build were only let know about it. At the session of the county council last week, 0200 was aet aside to assist in placing an exhi- bit ot Gre County apples at the Toronto Power, Fruit and Honey Show, and 0100 towards prises t be awarded at the Guelph Winte Fair for Grey Count amateur feeders and breeders. *his is a start in the right direction.
