Replying lo recent criticisms, widely circulated, aimed at the credit ot Canadian municipalities', a leading Mon»e -law publication makes significant comment which in Commanding general approval. The statement of the editor would ap- pOttt to have Special application to Moose .law's ftnaflCCB. After a reference to the heavy responsibilities that have boon thrust upon the Canadian municipality, the writes con' tinucs: "These responsibilities, have been occasioned by the unprecedented inrush of population, particularly into the Western provinces. Population and business centres in certain localities and had to be accommodated. This has meant a large expend!* tturo of money, and there has been no alternative but to raise it by borrowing freely.. In common with Ihose conducting important business enterprises, Canadian cities can with prolrt stand a little checking up now and then; but their basis is sound, ( for it rests upon a rapidly growing ! and assured population. Some of ' 'their assessments may be inflated; { bul will any person seriously argue | that their property values aro not imore truly intrinsic Hnn those of •our* bait the railroad xecuritk'*?" Last Monday morniig at fl.80 o'clock (he provincial agricultural commission met at the government building in Cranbrook for the taking of evidence along the line ot anything of interest to the farmers. There were a large number of farmers in attendance. Those compasing \\\4 commission were: W. II. Hay ward, M.P., of Duncan; J, J. Campbell, of Nelson; .1. Kidston, of Vernon; S. Shannon, of Cloverdalc; W. Duncan, of Comox; C. H. Christcnscn, of Victoria. Messrs. Campbell and Shannon started for Baynes Lake via automobile in the morning mid after losing their way and meeting with a mishap, returned to Cranbrook and made a fresh start again in the afternoon. The commission left Tuesday afternoon for Wasa via automobile where they were scheduled to hold a ses-' sion at seven o'clock in the evening, proceeding then to Wlnhcrmerc* ' 'JOHN LEVETT. j The first witness called on Monday morning was Mr. John Levett, one of Cranbrook's most successful farmers. Mr. Levitt, In his evidence, stated lu* had farmed for a large! number of years near Fort Steele. I He had made weekly trips into town delivering butter, eggs and other pro-' dure in season and had always been' able to dispose of all be bad at pro-' litrtble ami satisfactory prices. His greatest difficulty bad been to get reliable labor. He had to pay (SO prr month nnd hoard and occasional-' ly more and very unsatisfactory help in main eases. ln clearing land he estimated it at. that time to have cost (126 per acre. j In reply to the chairman's qfics-1 Hon he thought that some system whereby the actual practical farmer could obtain money at easy rales' over long terms would go a great way towards getting thc right kind ot people to go on the land and improve it. A. B. SMITH. Mr. A. B. Smith, who Is president of the Farmers' Institute, was lhe next witness called. He stated tha|* a good many new settlers hnd located within the district during the past few years but that a-Rood many bad also gone away again. I.unds in the district were valued at from 55ft to Ji2r> per acre. Products usually commanded a good price on the local market. He was informed by Mr. Hayward, chairman of the commission, of the success of nn egg-depot which had heen established in Mr. Ilayward's home town. The first year 31,000 dozen eggs were bandied, tho second year 81,000 dozen eggs were handled, tbe second year 81,000 dozen eggs were marketed and in 1012 151,000 dozen eggs were handled and the amount this year from present indications would exceed 250,- 000 dozen. He recommended the es tarnishing of these depots in all parts of the province, Mr. Smith rccom* mended the following subjects as being of most interest to the farmers of the district at thc present time. First.—Thc penalizing of low grade stallions and the bomising of pure bred stock and asking the government to co-operate in a movement to have only one struin of stock bred in the district, which would work out to Farmers' Institute, said that stump- advantage in case of sale. ing powder cost 55.(lft per box plus Second.—That means be provided the freight from the government that by the government preventing the be had shipped in a considerable shipping of nursery slock Imported i|uanti(y mostly in small lots; He from out the province to Vancouver reported the sale or tracts of lands for fumigation and Inspection, as the] hi thc Immediate vicinity by Crun- exlra shipping had proved the death' brook Orchards and Kootenay Or- of. much of the imported slock which chords companies and said that the came into this district. condition of a man who had only live Third.—Government assistance in acres amino money whb ahsolutelj securing money for settler's at low hopeless from a farmer's standpoint rates of Interest, siichnnnney to be That a man could make these tract* spent strictly in improving the farms pay, providing lie selected one in and lands. the proper location and knew soil, Fourth.-That there is approxl- tt'iiK a Practical farmer and had mon- matcly 100,000 acres of logged-off p>' tn Mrr?

He said that nineteen acres planted at Wardner bad yielded 300 tons of mixed vegetables. One half of this tract was irrigated and the other half worked Under dry farming methyls and no difference could be distinguished in the yield, lie had found orchards in various parts of the district killed by the use ol too much water. Five acres planted by himself on St. Mary's Prairie two years ago were in a fine, Ileal thy condition and no water had been UScd. The live and ten acres tracts sold next io the city were valued according lo tlieir proximity to the city. The terms of sale for these lands were a small payment down and a small payment each month, and be thought they were to be classed as any other business proposition. A man who had no experience and no money was doomed to fail. His company loaned money on farm lands at the rate of about J Hi per acre at lu pel cent interest. Farmers should pick the bench or air drained lands for llie best success. NEW BUILDINGS F0H GREEN HOUSES DEMAND FOR CUT FLOWERS INCREASES BUSINESS OF CRANBROOK FLORISTS. has expired and he recommended that the government throw this open for pre-emption in tracts of In0 acres and protecting the opening in such a way lhat speculators would be eliminated and only bona (Wo Peltiers be allowed to file and secure rights to such land. Fifth—That more work be done on settler's roads and not s<, much done nn the automobile highways. IRA R. MANNING. ira R. Manning stated that pota- •rlion that there were 100,000 acres of lands in « radius of ten miles of Cranbrook on which timber leases had expired and which ought to be thrown open for pre-emption. He thought that 511 per cent of it would prove to be good farming land. All land in this country required two or three years cultivation before it was in good shape for planting fruit trees, clover, etc. Then* were late frosts until two years ago but only very light late frosts in the past two years. Strawberries had been toes, currants ami gooseberries fr(,st('d b"' currants and gooseberries could be secured from the local pro- j wt'n' "ftt touched. Bench lands were ducers in suflicieut quantities to sup- ■llorp '«* irom fr0sl liian Uie low ply the local demand, hut. that ap- meadow land. From a record he pies, straw-berries, raspberries, peach- kept of chickens be had made a profit es and all larger fruits were shipped in. More local fruit could tic purchased if the growers knew more about packing and were provided with the necessary crates and boxes. The average prices paid for these fruits on the local market for the past three years were as follows: Strawberries, $3.00 per crate; raspberries, per crate, $2.50; gooseberries and red currants, $2.40; black currants, $3.00. Eggs ranged in price from 10 cents to 80 cents and had been known to he as high as $100 for strictly fresh laid eggs. Eggs could be shipped in from tbe prairie "at from 7 to 2il cents less per dozen at all seasons of the year. There had been a surplus ol fresh eggs for two months this year, which bail never been known before but the price bad not been lowered. Eggs were now ■in cents and could be purchased from the prairie nt 30 cents, These were sometimes good but at certain seasons of the year very bad. New Zealand ami Ontario butter was sold very little, local butter being made. Forty-five cents was n high price for butter at any season. Apples were ordered from lho Americans principally because the merchants could get carload Iota made up of one nr two varieties while the British Columbia curs from the Okanagan usually bad several varieties. The American pack was also .superior, and the price with duty wns usually n few cents cheaper per box. However, tlio B.C. apple was gaining, and he thought that within a year or so that they would he competing very strongly against Uio American fruit. He hud supplied wheal* to the Poultry association in carload lots at $20.50 per ton. Bran and shorts at $27.5ft in carload lots. SAM MACDONALD. Sam Miu-'doiiafil, secretary ot tlio of $2.00 per bird on one hundred chickens in one year, not counting bis own labor. Tbere were good prices for eggs, thc year round and especially good prices for dressed poultry. B. PALMER. Mr. Palmer owns land near Cranbrook, only a few acres, which he thought cost $10ft per acre to clear and plow. He said that lie had been hauling manure from town for several seasons and dumping it on his land and that it required two to three years of such work after clearing he- fore the land would raise much of anything. On St. Mary's Prairn they could get a crop the first yeai but tin* stump land required humus which took some time to provide. He stated that lho great drawback this country was lack of individual capital and loo small acreage, too many farmers were trying lo make ;, living without any money to start and on a limited acreage. He said that there were 100,000 acres lying tributary fa Cranbrook which would make n good stock country, as grass grew luxuriantly, but which he though! would moke good farmi land as well under dry farming methods or irrigation where such was feasible, lie thought that this would grow Into a mixed farming country, but that the conditions at the piesent time were discouraging for a man just starting in. Ho thought that a man bad cleared Q hundred acres here he had earned every foot of the land hy bis work and that the stump land was practically valueless. He considered cooperation on the part of lhe tarmers ns one of the most necessary things for the advancement of tlieir own interests. HAROLD DARLING. Harold Dulling, a local real estate W. B. BUSH. Mr. Rush owns 320 acres three miles south of tbe cily, ol which, :tft acres was cleared. He came to protest against ihe school tax levied by the City of Cranbrook on his land. He had been Included in school district over which the City of Cranhrook had control, the school building he:;,; i*Msk the city limits. The governing tax on his property this year was $14.00 and the amount levied for the school alone bail been $52.50, more ihan three times thc government tax. He had appeared before thc hoard of revision but that had proven only wasted time. A local real estate man acted as assistant assessor and fixed real estate men's prices or. the lands. He would sell his land for the amount assessed. S. F. CHILDS. S. F. Chi Ids, of Hanbury. owns 320 acres wilh 15 acres cleared, on which be raises fruits, vegetables and everything grown in this climate. Everything bad grown successfully that he had tried hut much of the trials were only as an experiment, as be did not grow enough to market. His best apples were llie Wealthy, Duchess and Yellow Transparent. He now has thirteen head ol cattle and finds a good market for his milk among the lumber camps. He stated the Hblfltein breed and calves that would ordinarily sell at $5.00, he could get $25.ui) [or his blooded stock. Tbere were a few new people settling ir. his neighborhood. He thought East Kootenay a most desirable location for a farmer that understood his business! He had prospered since coming here sixteen years ago and all of his neighbors were in a g°°d prosperous condition. There was a good market for anything grown in Fast Kootenay. One neighbor made a living from one cleared acre and his cattle, although he owned more land He only wished to register a complaint against water rights being filed and not used when bis neighbors were in rued of llie same water. P. L. OWES. Mr Owen stated that he was a carpenter wbo resided in Cranbrook and lhat if be had thc money t«, Insure his remaining, he would go on land aud work band lo succeed, that he would rather work endeavoring to make a home for himself on a farm ai u small stipend than to work for big wages at bis trade, and that lu knew several people of bis acquaintance who would also prefer to do Ihis. He thought that the plan to advance money on tlie amount of improvements made was a good one, providing a sufficient amount could he advanced to support a man and and family white he placed lhe land cultivation. One of the growing Institutions in Cranbrook is the Fast Kootenay Greenhouse company, which was started only about a year ago, being financed by a company of local capitalists, Most ol those who put in money at the start have withdrawn from the company at a profit and the control is now in the hands of .Mr. <:. li Wiihs, ibe manager, and one silent partner. The company has inst completed the erection of a new building which is covered with 2,000 square feet of glass aud is divided into two green houses, IS^xSO feet and 16x34 feet iu size The- glass used in covering this building is double thickness and was placed by the Cranhrook Sash and Door company, The new build- inn is several feel higher than ihe old one and more than doubles Uie capacity of tbe green houses. Even with this additional room, Mr. Willis informs us. there will not be enough room to supply their demand and they arc contemplating the erection of another house, somewhere near thc citv, which will In* live times tlie capacity of lhe houses now erected. Tbis will probably be done a | next year. An office is being equipped at the front ot the new building, where displays of hanging baskets, (lowering puts, etc , will be shown. A cellar for maturing bulbs has been constructed, where they can be allowed to slowly mature. New beds of carnations are being planted. Tbe demand for this beautiful (tower far exceeds the capacity %n growing them. Lettuce and mushroom beds are also in course of construction and the company expect to be able to supply part of the demand for these vegetable* this winter. An experienced and practical green house man is employed by the company and by autumn will Ih* in shape to supply the demand for cut flowers of maity different kinds as well as vegetables peculiarly adapted to hot bouse growth. The present hot water heating plant will not fo- enlarged but pipes will be run through the new building soon. lor 5 W. a. Rollins left Saturday Vancouver on business. He will turn from there in q few days and then has planned to go to Fort Fraser to look alter land interests and will probably locate In that district. A FF.W FACTS FOR CANADIANS TO PONDER OVF.it. Fifty years is a Very short time in thr* life of a forest. Most ol the timber being cut in British Columbia today is over two hundred years old —some of it over eight hundred. It takes years to grow trees—not hours or days. II we want our trees protected we must care lor them now. Today is fifty years 'ago" from th eyear luli.'j—and that is not very far away. There is a erisis coming—when lhe forests which for a century men have] thought ••ihexhausiible" arc going to bC greatly depleted. We must, prepare for that contingency. Stop the fires Stop the waste in logging, milling and utilization. Stop ihe Insert and fungus depredations. Cut timber only when it is "ripe" —when it will produce as tmi< h Value as possible In usefulness '" men I'lant up the waste plans Plant the needed shelter belts. These take tune, thev take men, I hey take money, but they are worth it. France ha*- spent 185,000,000 in planting trees on watersheds. Germany spends up to SIS per acre per annum on some forests, ami gets gross returns up io $21 per acre, thus yielding net profits up to $11 per acre every year. As a whole, German forests iluce about $2.00 net per acre Dually. Canada spends much less than cent per acre per annum on the est lands under management* If we set thc fire loss against the timber product, Canada's .forest balance sheet shows an enormous de- neit. ;/ How can Canadians stop the toss- se, arrest the waste? There Is but one answer. Public opinion, public conscience are the only forces thnt will ever make for progress. pro- one.

Forty six years ago .luly 1, 1807, several of the provinces ol this great date. It was on May 22nd that the ion of Canada. other provinces joined al later dates till tbe Dominion embraced tbis great country from ocean to ocean. The Imperial parliament finally passed the Hritish North America Act on February 28th, 1807. On March 2flth it received the royal assent but it contained a provision that it should not come Into force until a royal proclamation was signed within six mouths of tin* latter dale. It was on May 22ml that tho late beloved Queen Victoria signed the royal proclamation which called the Dominion into existence, and thai proclamation set .luly 1st as the dale for the official creation ol the new Dominion. Lord Monck was sworn iu on L'ly 2nd as the first viceroy and on November filh of the same year the fust parliament of Canada) met. Jul) 1, 1807, marked the beginning of a new nation.

II is possible Hint we do not celebrate with sufficient enthusiasm this day which should Is* the very best of lhe entire year. Canadians glorify nny 'achievement, ;is an eastern, paper properly stales, sn long as ii is not distinctly Canadian. Tuesday was a holiday hut there was little distinctively Canadian about it. There was little reference mi that day to the greatness ol Ibe Canadian nation, and the future nt Hie Cana dian people. There was no ixten slvo consideration ut tli.* achievements nl the Canadian citizens. There is much more intelligent celebration of Empire day, which is in memory of the birth of tlte lasl Queen of (ireat Britain, than there is of our own national day. The Toronto Star suggests lhal the day might be set apart, for it general review of Canadian achievement, The explorers and discoverers so brilliantly described by Park- man—the toils und hardships nt tin pioneers and early settlers of Canada —tho winning of responsible government, tin* efforts of statesmen to reconcile the differences between French-Canadians and those other Canadians who traced their descent from the Hritish Islands, the building ol railways from the pioneer line to the three transcontlueuitals, the founding of our school systems. Tho closing days of the schools, whioh comes shortly before Hie holiday, might be called Confederation day or Canada day, and be marked by appropriate exercises.

" musassmt When Summer Stops the Swing Most of us can remember the school lesson in the law of accumulated motion—momentum. If you exert a pound of pressure against a man in a swing, you'll start him moving slowly " to and fro." If you continue to exert a pound of pressure against him every time the swing makes a trip, you'll soon have him going so high that he almost turns the whole circle. If you stop pushing, the momentum will die out and the swing come to rest at" dead centre." Winning trade follows the same natural laws. Keep it Going by Advertising Advertisements are the force behind the swing of public favor. Each new advertisement increases the momentum. Finally, the accumulated force of these numerous impulses swings indifference to the buying point. If you stop Advertising, you lose momentum. The moral of which ia: Don't atop the business swing in summer. Keep adding the pounds of Advertising pressure.

WHAT DORS IT COST YOU TO FEED AND KKKP YOUR POULTRY?- SOME AC- TU AL COSTS DETERMINED BY EXPERIMENT. Recently, some valuable investigations have been carried on in Ohio with regard to profits In poultry keeping. Tbe best results came from a farm flock of !)ti fowls, which gave a net profit for the year above feed and lahor of $237.37, or $2.17 each; the lowest results were from a town-lot flock of thirty fowls, which gave a net loss of $27.0(1, or a loss of 93 cents each. Out of twelve town (locks, four showed a loss, while of eighteen farm flocks, every one showed a profit, ranging from LU cents to $2.47 per fowl. The average number of eggs laid by each hen on farms was 71 as compared with 70 in the town flocks. Tiie profits, therefore, with farm' flocks did not arise from tbe difference in egg production, hut rather from the lower cost of feed and labor and from the methods of management. The cost of feed for twelve town (locks nnd one commercial flock averaged fl? cents per fowl yearly, as compared with an average ot lil cents on 1*8 farms. The great difference in favor of the farm (locks is attributed to a number of causes, such as the use of the gleanings from harvest fields, orchard and garden, waste products— —liktf cabbages and beets from the storehouse—the usti of extensive pasture, weed seeds and insects, dairy by-products, and the lower price of grain consumed by hens off the farms. Tin* labor cost on farms and in towns averaged 2R cents and iiO cents respectively—another great difference in favor ot the farms. It was also learned that, in both town and country, the small flocks gave greater profits than large ones, that fowls with unlimited range did better than those partly or wholly; confined; thnt, to compete successfully with farm flocks, the town DOUl- tryman must keep high-producing hens nnd sell at a higher price; that a poultry system which requires the keeping of fowls confined or which necessitates a large amount of per sonal supervision, has no place on a general farm; and thnt a heller system of marketing eggs and poultry is needed—one that will encourage tho production of a high-grade product carefully and expeditiously transported to the consumer.

Vancouver, 'lune 30.—Even I lie Bands of tin; sen are not safe .from tlie operations of political grafters. There has Just eomfl to light n ileal In Conservative politicians ol this eity, aided ami abetted bj Hon. Roberli Rogers, minister of puhllo works, and bj H. ll. Stevens, Ml1, ini* ihe city nf Vancouver, whieh fur uuilaein throws Into the shade any- thlug accomplished in the palmiest days of Unss Tweed and nfo Rau^ in New VurlJ City. For years past, Indeed, ever since. tluie has been a Yaucuuvei', the hulldlng supply Dieii of,this city havo been in the hahll oi pumping sand from Spanish Hank in English Bay, off Point Qrey. This is a sand deposit created hy the notion of the Fraser river and the tides combined, awl ii provides the only pure building siiiid within reasonable distance of tin* city. The linn ot Champion ami White hav,. been drcd^in^ this sand for twenty-two years; that of Thomas 11. McRriilc nml Company have been doing so for eighteen years past; and other supply men have been doing thr same for a lesser time. The result has been beneficial in two ways. It has allied in keeping down the size of the sandbank and thus assisting navigation. It has given building sand to ihe contractors of thc city nt the lowest possible price nnd of tho best quality obtainable on the Pacific coast. No one was being injured, except those who cast envious eyes upon the sandbank; and the eity as a whole benefited. This condition lasted for years. But' tbe sort of men who are looking for easy money, the "Ruftts Walling- fords" of Vancouver saw in Spanish Bank an opportunity for making money wit hunt working and so, through II. II- Stevens, M.P.. 1hey made application to the late minister nf public works at Ottawa, lion. F. I). Monk, for a lease of the sandbank, so as to grab its money-making pos- sihilltlos for themselves, Bul, to the credit of .Mr. Monk, the application was ruthlessly rejected. And [t must he added that when a similar proposition was put before .Mr. tl. II. Cowan, K.U., during his term of office as M. 1'. for Vancouver, he declined to endorse it or forward thu scheme in any way. Hut the schemers did not lose heart. With the disappearance of Mr. Monk from the public works department, thev saw a chance of getting their plans accepted, and when Hon. Robert Rogers was made minister ol public works they took fresh hope. They were justified in their knowledge of that gentleman's disregard for the public interest when party friends had to be favored, and so tin* chief promoter of the enterprise, William John 1'aseoe, went t Ottawa, planted himself on the threshold of the public works department and put in uu application for the leasing of Spanish Bank to the Silica Sand and 0ravel Company, Ltd., ns 'he organization of Poacoe aud his associates is described in 'he provincial letters patent of incorporation granted to them at Victoria, Tin* membership id the d in*e tor.it n ol Ibe company is not known vet, but iu addition In I'ascoe, who acted as its agent in Ottawa, it has a Mr (limn as Its secretary at ils offices ut I'll Robson street, Vancouver, and a Mr. Col vin Cray a-s one of its m> llve members. Poscoe did not stay iu Ottawa lor nothing. Aided by II. II. Stevens, he laid siege lo Rogers, and his siege was rewarded hy the signing, on April 2nd, 1913, or a lease granting to the Silica Sand and Gravel Co., Ltd., a license to dredge and take away sand for building nml other purposes from Spanish Bank. Meanwhile the building supply contractors had been dredging away for sand on Spanish Bank, as usual, without, any idea that the "get-rich- i|uick" men were busy, hut they soon pit a mdr awakening. A week or so after lhe lease was signed at 01- lawa, a ruinoi reached Vancouver that Ihe guh Inn) been made -ml telegrams of Inquiry were sent to oitawa bv tbe Vancouver Gravel and Sand association asking if llie rumors were true that an individual lease had heen granted to Spanish Bank to the detriment "** the building interests of the city. On April 15th a reply came from tbe secretary of public works department to the effect that a ''license of occupation" had been granted to the Sllleia Sand aud Gravel Company, Ltd., for live years on Spanish Bank, Kiiftlish May. This was followed on April 21 st bv ;1 letter from tlie firm of Bowser, Reiil and Wnllbridge, signed by R. I.. Held, Informing the various supply men of the agreement signed at Ottawa and adding: "Vou are herohj notified not to remove anv Wind Ol* gravel from the section covered bv the said lease and thai notion will In* taken for anv infraction of tlw rights jrranled to th'* said Silica Sand and Gravel Company, Ltd., un tier the said lease." The letter concluded by saying. "Tho Silica Sand and Gravel Company. I.til., will he glad to moke arrangements with you for the removal of sand and gravel from the said premises, applications For which must be made to the company nt Us officer above mentioned." When fltc supply men went to the ollice of the Silica company on Koh- son street they were refused a copy of the agreement and had to wail for several weeks whilst they secured a copy from Ottawa. But they soon learned thai it was the intention of thc Silica company to exact a charge of twenty cents a cubic yard for the sand for which it was to pay thr Dominion government live cents a cubic yard, and this though it had no plant, no dredges and no means whatever of taking the sand front lhe sandbank. In other words, (he supply men were to gn on doing the work with their own plants bringing the sand to Vancouver, and pay the Silica com panv twenty cents a cubic yard for the privilege of doing that which Ihey had heen doing for twenty years for nothing. The supply men are in revolt. They have s*o far disregarded llie claim of the Silica company and have ri ahead with their work ns if the sand was as free as it was before Robert Rogers and II. H. Stevens and W, .1. Pascoo made if, a source of toll col lection. But now one of their number, Champion and While, has been served with an Injunction demanding they cease taking tlte sand unless and until they have agreed to pay the exaction demanded hy lhe Silica company. Argument upon this Injunction will lake place on Friday, and it is understood that the supply men will put up a strong light against the disposal id the sand of the sea to political favorites to the detriment of every man and woman in the city of Vancouver wbo desires to put up ;, building of any soil whatsoever. CANADA AND THE MONROE DOCTRINE In the Kingdom paper jusl. issued from Ottawa an explanation is made of the Monroe duel tine, which fo proven to be the policy ol George Canning, who was then the British foreign secretary, ami was adopted by the United Stales at the instillation ami suggestion of Canning, Th* policy bus been of Inestimable benefit for the expansion of Brilisli trad, and power. It has also neri I 111 means of perpetuating peace on Hit American continent for the past ninety-two years. In summing up Canada's position in relation i,, i policy, the paper says: It has frequently been asserted Hint the United Kingdom has protected Canada Irom invasion, and,that for such protection, we ought to be enthusiastically grateful. Lei us now ask whether the Monroe policy has not, lor niuely years, protected (W)1 in war hut us against war) all Hie Spanish American republics, and whether those countries ought Eur that reason, to contribute to the British navy? They should not—he- cause Hie Monroe policy was adopted for purely British reasons; because its principal purpose was lo preserve and extend British trade, and, al lb* Same lime, to thwart the ambitious of International rivals. The Monroe policy cost the United Kingdom nothing. On the cnnlimry, il \ leld- til wealth, und naval employment,] ind power. incidentally, it ben-e- ited one set uf nations and injured mother set. Ask Argentine whether, -Ir ought, lot thai reason, lo scud 635,000,000 in the British admiralty? In considering tho existence of Canadian obligation, remember, too, lhat if Canada were a completely independent stale, British policy toward her would be. the same as il is toward tlie independent slates of South America, ami for lhe same reason. Wc would not object lo that, would wc'.' Wc would not feel humiliated hy if? Argentine aud Brazil enjoy the benefit ol it, as also do Holland and Belgium. They would not be free from it if Ihey could. II is. no doUht, strong protection tot thrm, not so much, in war ■is a preventative against war. But being thc result of merely sell-regard- iailc consideration, they owe no gratitude foi il. Nor should we. Canada derives Immense advantage from Ihe Canning poltcj as held both hy tho United Kingdom and by tho I'nited Slates; but our neighbors arc becoming conscious of the fact that as Canada grows in strength she will, iu return and in pursuance of Hie same excellent policy, be a source of powerful protection to the United Slates. Canada would not stand idly hy and see Japan or China occupy Alaska or Pilgct Sound. Such an irruption would fundamentally and forever alter our whole political and social situation. Unanimously, wc should assert with Monroe that if would be Impossible that these nations should "extend Iheir political system" lo those parts of tin* continent "without endangering our peace and happiness." Ami for like reasons, if (lermany or France proposed lo occupy the Stale of Maine, Canadians would eagerly assist in their repulsion. We should not stay to formulate, or to give a name to our policy; we should be quite indifferent whether it were called by the name of Canning or Munroe; and we should never afterwards rail at the "unwarranted assumption of authority on Ihe part of ih" I'nited States." Take'nn example of what I mean trom the his- lory of South America: Early in tho lKliO's, pending a boundary dispute between Chile, Peru ami Bolivia, Spain sent a fleet to enforce certain claims against Peru, and asserted a right to regain pos- ression of her former colony. The effect was immediate. Local differences were lard aside, and an united front was turned against Spain. "Tlte outbreak of hostilities between Spain and Peru. . . . caused lhe president (of Chile) to imagine thai if Spain was victorious, the Spaniards would endeavor to regain control of South America. . . and in isii'i these lour South America republics were united against) such power as Spain could send across the seas to attack them." If neither Canning nor Munroe bad ever lived, those four nations would have done precisely as they did. ('oinmunity of Interest—community of danger was the Impelling motive Sometimes the question "Would you rely upon the Monroe doctrine?" is scornfully thrown nt Nationalists, The jibe is as foolish as if, with contemptuous lone, you should ask •,, Britisher if he would rely upon Japan. Finding that tbey had a c°m* nton interest, British and Japanese made an agreement for mutual support. End. relics upon the military assistance ot the other, but neither Is humiliated by lhe fact, There is no country in lhe world strong enough to stand alone. Every one of them relics upon treaties, ententes, nnd foreign policies. Ccr- many relies upon her treaty with Austria-Hungary and Italy, and, until a few weeks ago, upon the foreign policy ol Turkey and Uouiuania. France relies upon Itiissia and lho timed Kingdom. Every nation re lies upon some other or others, There is nothing humiliating in Canada's community ot military in tere.st wilh llie Untiled Stales. Ipon the contrary it is a matter for the highest and most proper gratification. Would anyone suggest that n treaty with the United States for mutual guarantee of each other's territory against over-sea invasion would be dishonorable? Tbat Is precisely the effect of the treaty be- t,\uen the United Kingdom and Japan*, which nobody has deemed ilis- gracefuli •Anti if we might rely upon such a treaty, should we be wrong ir, iu training our military policy, we took into account the well known fact of Culled States policy? lu truth, we could not if we Announcement Extraordinary w E beg to announce that we have disposed of our Grocery Business to Mr. IRA R.

This constitutes a grave menace to the development or agriculture, and it is very essential that a determined effort bo made at the present time to combat the evil belore it gets Iou big Ui handle. It is deplorable Lo see in many good agricultural- districts in, the province the alarming extent to which Hie; Canadian thistle has spread. This is one of llie very worst weeds in existence, ami probably the hardest tti control. The following course of treatment, which should he pursued for the eradication of Canada thistle is recommended by the seed commissioner's branch ol lhe federal department of agriculture: Remedy.—Heing a deep rooted perennial, Canada thistle should be ploughed deep In summer just as tlie flowers open, or the flowering stems may he. mowed down and the land plowed as soon as the new growth appears. As new stems are thrown up they must be cut off with a broad-sheared cultivator, at intervals during the summer and auhumn. Deep ploughing in the autumn has heen found useful in suppressing thistles in Manitoba. Tho chief safeguard against Canada thistle and similai deep rooted pereuiiiaU. fo undoubtedly RHEUMATISM, LUMBAGO and LAME BACK «aa be cured hy the great fruit kid- ley and liver remedy, FIG PILLS Brantford, Ont., Aug. 13, 1911. Your medicine, Fig Pills, has worked wonders tor mc. Tho rheumatic pains have entirely left me and I owe everything to your remedy. You arc at liberty to publish this. U. II. Gailman. At all dealers 25 and 50 cents or mailed by The Fig Pill Co., St. Themas, Ont. Sold by The Cranbrook Drug and Book Co., Ltd. a regular short rotation of crops* with thorough cultivation. A tbrc year rotation, including two cuttings of early red clover for the fust year, followed by deep fall ploughing for hoed crops with clean cultivation ami a cereal crop for the third will suppress it. For permanent pastures and wild lauds where this course of treatment is not feasible, a plan which is followed by many with great success is to keep the plants cut ofl right at the crown and never allow them to flower. This course, it pursued faithfully, will in a few years lime destroy this pest. All provincial constables and fire wardcus have again this year been appointed agents for the department in the enforcement of the provisions of tht*. Noxious -Weeds Act, and have be™ instructed In case of non-com- pliancfl with notices served on owners, to institute prosecutions. This in itself, however, is not all that is necessary. It is imperative that the co-operation of the fanners themselves be secured. The provisions of the Noxious Weeds Act aro stringent enough, but its •proper enforcement cannot be effected to lin> best advantage unless lhe farmers do their, share, and sir that their neighbors lake steps to destroy weeds before they seed. I trust therefore that W<J may have united action along these lines, and that effective work will be done this year towards the suppression of those weeds which arc prov- ing such a menace to successful agricultural development in different- parts ol the province. Thankinft you in anticipation tor your courtesy in inserting this letter. Yours very truly, Wnl. E. Scott, Deputy Minister. Vtetorm, B.C., .luue 27th, IMS.
