It is here _ where citizens have their feet cn the ground and breed the spirit of independence. It is here wheve the country develops its will to Thevre will be some of us who will question the wisdom behind Mr. Scott‘s method _ of presenting â€"t: farmer‘s case. But none will obâ€" ject to the speech as a whole. Anyone who allows the pressing war problem of providip» more planes and war equipment to cripâ€" ple the structure of agriculture offâ€"balance. _ And there is no goo¢ reason to believe our Government }\\'m fall into error. Hardâ€"taxed as this nation is in meeting it war _ obligations, our _ representaâ€" tives at Ottawa can hardly fail to recognize ts absolute necesâ€" sity of keeping farmers sureâ€"fcotâ€" ed against the day when these sons of the soil take their tarn as Canada‘s first line of trade ofâ€" fensive. ‘There is one grave psychological mistake, hawever, that some memâ€" But Mr. Scott grew bitter, appea:~ ing to be carried away by the dismal spectacle he was portraying. He pointed a finger at the prospect . of more farm sales next year, and went so far as to advise young men naw on farms to quit, unless they weare prepared to fight as Canadian farmers had never fought before. The genâ€" tleman even hinted strongly of agricâ€" ultural bankruptcy and peasantry if the country‘s policy were continuâ€" making life for the man on the farm perplexing.

Town $1000 more _ The town of Walkerton lost another . $1000 last week. _ â€" When their exâ€" _ treasurer was found short in his books, for which he is now serving a _ penitentiary term, it was hoped that{ the shortage, said to be about $7,000 or more, would be partially overcome on payment of the $2,000 bond whic.h; the town held in a surety compa.ny.; But the company refused to pay, stating that the contract called for a proper audit of the town books and this was never done. “’alkerton{ sued the company for the amount.] and, before it came to trial last week, an amicable settlement was made whereby the town gets $1,000. In other words, the laxity of the ; Council in not seeing that proper auditor‘s reports .were gotten out. cost the town a cool thousand dolâ€" lars, as well as doubtless being a. factor in enabling the former treaâ€" surer to "get away with it." 7 tha ctallâ€"crpa K. M. Mcrrison, manager of the First Cooperative Packers of Ontario said last week that the lower price and the great demand might result in lowering the quality cf the bacon and ruin the British market for Canâ€" adian hogs after the war. COUNTRY SHOULD SHARE BACON LOSS WITH FARMERS In the opinion of the Ontario Fedâ€" eration of Agriculture, if Canada deâ€" sires to send bacon to Britain below a profitable price for the farmer, the country as a whole should share the lossâ€"not the farmer â€" alone. This body contends that the farm er is already bearing more than his share of the war effort, that steps should be taken to subâ€" sidize the hog producer, especially as even now the ecst of producir{z hogs is still increasing. ] Dne of the most constructive movâ€" es Premier King eould make at this moment in the interests of a more united Canada would be to take an hour off from his heavy duties and address the farmers and small townsmen across the counâ€" try, telling them just where the\yi stand in _ the general effort for a war victory and the ultimate hapâ€" piness of the ccuntry. f Ottawa knows all this, but someâ€" times appears toâ€" take it for grantâ€" ed. And the resuit is that far too many Canadians in our rtral areas are getting the false idea that they are lined up on one side while all officialdom is lined up against them. e ONTARIO ) her on the end the barn. and gaw Jere®elâ€"thern‘s nnta you in the rornin~ TORONTO the mrornin~ "Mister," said the "Will you give me a for my wife and little The stranger looked ly: "I won‘t take adva destitution. .
