[" ¢ .Montreal Weekly Witness and Canadian Homestead.MONTREA The People\u2019s Paper DECEMBER 10, 1918 8150 POST-PAID; 4 A COPY.MONTREAL, DECEMBER 10, 1918 rt A Word to Our New Bubscribers.FMrat: we welcome you to the @oodly company of \u2018\u201cWitness\u201d readers \u2014leaders in their respective environments, and many of them with great provincial or national influence.Becondly: we take this early sppor- tunity of letting you know something about the \u201cWitness.\u201d It is not, never has been, and never will be, a party paper: mo long, at all events, as it 1s published by its present owners it has never had any understanding with ay politiclan, party or government, or any relationship with any interest other than that of the people.It has spurned alike both threats and bribes, and, what was still harder, withstood at groat cost to itself popular clamor for unprincipled policies, Its function in politica is to test the political pro- feasions, programs and practices of politicians, parties, or governments, by the fundamental principles of democ- racy\u2014of Christian democracy.And this it does to the best of its ability, without fear or favor, as those who know it best and longest will attest\u2014 even though each will naturally think the \u201cWitness\u201d prejudiced at that particular point where he does not agree with it.No two blades of grass are alike.Who then could expect two sincerely independent minds to think alike on all subjects at all times?Multiply two by tens of thousands of readers, and differences.of opinion\u2014 even of conviction\u2014are bound to be frequent.But If we are all prompted by the same motives, the same devotion to the common weal.we shall pone of us go far astruy.In any case, the \u201cWitness\u201d must loyally steer by the light as it abs it.Service is its watchword: and in the service of the people of Canada it has shirked po duty, no course, however unpepuiar, or at ar utetEr\u2014emortiiey patromnge.As an independent paper the \u201cWit.peas\u201d has enemies, and some hoth bitter and powerful, and we never know where or when a bomb from their submarine tactics will strike us.Nothing would please them so well as to put the \u201cWitness\u201d out of commission.But that they cannot do If the \u2018people of Canada support the paper by giving it à circulation by which it ean live irrespective of advertising.The readers will better get their own when It is the readers and not the advertisers who pay for the paper.Among .its encmies are the liquor interests, over whom after seventy-two years of eonflict it has a right to lay some claim to the victory.Also, the gambling element, the tm- moral, the profiteer, the \u201cbig Interests,\u201d and certain publishers who have had vast incomes from support of those very enemies of mankind in general, and who feel that the \u201cWitness\u201d stands in the way of their lording it over the people.Publishers who bave been in the habit of swelling their bank nccounts from \u201cquestionable\u201d sources never have a kindly thought for the \u201cWitness\u201d which refuses to do #0.We only wish all the good people of Canada understood the \u201cWitness\u201d as well as do so many of its encmies.But only those who value its independence of seifish interest and its utter devotion (slavery?) to fundamental principles will appreciate it.Given right motives\u2014and wrong measures will be few and far between.Thirdly: If you think that an independent force like the \u201cWitness\u201d can serve the peuple of Canada in these eritical months of reconstructioa, you will co-operate with it by introducing it to your friends\u2014to members of your church, your society, jour farmers club, or othar organisations.Ry wo doing, each will Individually share In #ts influence and achievements This is the time of year that your friends are wondering what papers they will take during 1919.Just teil them why they should put the \u201cWit- meas\u201d at the top of the list.Ourrteason is that we want to serve them, and through them our country.Your in- omtive will bo similar.Notwith- sanding that we draw your attention 26 specially reduced rates Yor new subssribers and (or those whe get them.Drffieuition Surmeunted.We have been publishing under great difficulties for the: past few weeks, Nickness of aome of the important members of the staff and in every department.and the extreme shortage of men due to the war, has handicapped us seriously.While the opidem'c has now pasesd and the per- it is still impossible to add men for the extra work that always accumu- lutes at the year end.Added to this, the outside company that has for years been doing our press work has bad its own war-time difficulties.The number of papers big and little that have suffered beyond endurance by the high prices of material and labor during the past few years is very great.Although, all over the world, it is customary for \u201cweekly\u201d papers to be \u201cprinted out\u201d we bave for some time wanted to iostall a big printing equipment on our own premises, eo that we might not be menaced by the breakdown of any outside establishment.For if that happened, we would have to print for a few wecks under disadvantage, it not, indeed, mt greater expense.We of course, want to be safe from any adverse influences that might be able to take advantage at critical times of our dependence on outside ger- vice.But during war-times we found It almost impossible to install à plant large enough to do our work, and felt that no one should undertake such developments when the big factories and railways were being so taxed in the making and forwarding the neavier munitions of war.But we have again opened negotiations for the installation of a plant of our own as soon as possible Meantime we know our readers will understand the handicap under which we are publishing, and will loyally stand by ua The biz malls we are now rocelving with renewal and new subecriptions are evidence of the splendid devotion of \"Witness\" readers The atmosphere is full of optimism.\u2014 The challenge! You either would like to sea journalism of the \u201cWitness\u201d type developed or you would not.Your own subscription ie a sign you want it to exist.But a new subserip- tion is à sign you want to ses it developed and its Influence extended.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A Motserie Fall, a oe.208 me \u201cI beheld Satan as Jigtituing fall from heaven\u201d What people are saying to each other every day is, huw hard it is to believe that it is only threc or four weeks since the German Emperor was the greatest personality on earth, and his empire still a solid structure of iron, and since some who had male Germany their special study were still convinced that there could never be a revolution there.The collupse was as sudden and complete as was that of the rotten structure at Petrograd, which was as honeycombed with decay as though the white ants had cate out all but the thinnest shell of the timbers.The Emperor that was did not take time to wave his hand over the past with all its cloud-capped towers, and may, \u201cFarewell, a long farewell to all my greatness.\u201d He has mince followed his flight with a formal abdication, and men have seen him at & window writing, writing, writing; busy.perhaps, preparing his case against the great assize to which the world is detor- mined to summon him.He is only the embodiment of an order of things that has been through all the agen paramount in the world, but survived at last only In him and in the coterie of evil spirits that clustered round him to his undoing.He had tempted ioto his doomed fellowship ail the re- matning despotisms of earth, and theses all preceded him to jud t.The hollowness of the whole vast combination is now apparent to the most servile German and the mast stupid junker.The Crown Prince and other Germans are right in saying that the German army was not defeated In the field.It was, as elsewhers, the life that fel) out of it.It was found in Turkey that Enver, who had poisoned the wholesome Youmg Turk movement and made It putrid, and who had sold the Turkish reaim to the infidel, wis the best hated maw in Turkey.He and his gang, fleeing to®Berlia for comfort from those to whom they had wold themselves, found themselves equally abhorred there.The new Emperor of Austria, against whom we have heard no {Il except his necessary subservience to the Berlin gang who had entrapped Ma predecessor, has found the Hapsburg empire, whose record for brutal dominance is long and unvaried, crumbling beneath him into its ancient tribes, til there was left him no standiag ground on which to piace a throne.Where are now those prophets who were sure there would be no revolution 16 Germany?It was an io Russis, not conquest but decay \u2014in their ce unsuspected\u2014that brought the empire Lo an end, And well tor the world that it te so.For, whatever ie evolved from the ashes of the old empire, we may at least look for something that will be the pesple Sr hap manent staff io nouriy normal again ttocif, and not an iron monster atiting on the cage that centains the people.| of whose real mind it is not capable of knowing anything.The decay was, in the case of Germany, entirely unsuspected.Not even the leaders nf radical factions suspected it.Ho fet other nations lake warning.Justice.Our demand with regard to the criminalities of thia war should be that every accused perscn should have a fair trial before as unbiased a Jury as can be fornd, and that his exact responsiblity for the crimes in question be determined Bmal! odds, it the finding of a jury might fall to fit the crime.The sinner hranded, like Cain, with his crime.would not &0 unpunished.It is go be feared, however, that vengeance has part with justice in the hearin of those who are clamaring for the full pua- Ishment of the (ierman people for th» crimes of their masters.This, if all we are told ubout the irreciaimable brutality of the German falrly represented the nation, would have just warrant.But people who live a little above community passion have a notion what our own human nature would be under given circumstances, and find it mirrored, possibly much exaggerated, in the ways of the German.Let us analyse an example.A German lad, who was in the family of a Beotch minister learning Enxilah, was, when the war broke out, seen to the train by his young Scottish companion, who hoped that the next time they met it would .be under pleasanter circumstances.The German boy replied by spitting in his face as be jumped upoff the departing train The other was, however, able to board the train also, and gave the young Prussian all the drubbing he needed before disembarking at the next station.This appeared in the \u201cScotsman\u201d gud all Scotland was delighted, as, of course, we would have been.Apart from the pecullarly German method of expression, let us reverse the picture.The Scotch boy wan staying with ome of the German pastors to learn German.When the war broke out he heard all about him nothing but execration of Britain in the most offensive language, much of 4.epecially intended Ms ears.Bie 40 in an emgmo\u2019s cownsry.Bug In parting be is led by patriotiam or by passion, but with unusual courage, to strike a blow for his own country, whereupon the native Prussian, amid the plaudits of sll in the compartment pounds the poor stranger unmercifully.The feat gets into the newspapers, to the intense satisfaction of all Germany.Somehow, the thing does not put on exactly the same appearance.In (he same way, If we reverse every circumstance, and consider how many diverse moral qualities there are in an army, we may at least be helped towards justice.Therc was à time in the development of man when a whole race was held guilty of the crime of any individual in it, at least till that race had purged itself of the sin.We, on the contrary.would take it as cruelly unjust to be held guilty of something in which we personally had no part.We would fee! this the more if our whole nature had risep in abhorrence of the evil in question, und If we had made plain, as Dr.Kurt Eisner is doing, our resentment of it.We do not really know the present mind of Germany, Germany does not know her own mind, but there are many evidences of her abhorrence of the crime which brought on the war, and of those who plotted it.It may be that while we should not cease, for the make of the innocent, tn demand the right apportionment of blame, the nation may reveal to us so different a character that the spirit of justice which has some hold on each of us will constrain ue to change our mindéé with regard fo vengeance on à people who necessatily are what we Anglo-BSezons would have bees under like training.Sritsnnia\u2019s Realm.Hands off the British navy! league\u2019 or no league, In announced by Mr.Churchill to be the attitude In which\u2019 the British Government will ester the, Conference.It will have no restrictions on its well-tried and well-de- served supremscy.\u201cThe President undoubtedly will ask dissrmament at sea as well as on land.\u201d wires to Bri.win the American correspondent of the United Press on the eve of the President's sailing for Britain, when it is too late for the President to speuk for himself.We should naturaily look for that general attitude from him, and would in the abstract agree with it Joint control of the seas ia a thing to be aimed ot.Wo havé always had doubts as to how far the plan of a treaty bound league of nations could he oarrisd out without causing dangerous friction.We have more belief in understandings then In bargains But we believe moet loyally 1a the principle of trustful oco-epera- Sion between the powers, and ihe re- .AND STILL THE TREE DOESN'T PALL.Tears Sraaske! \u2014*\u201cTribune,\u201d N.Y.moval of every cate nf offence.We, therefore, believe that the British, while maintaining present efficiency, should look forward to joint action for the policing of the seas.It is when this mischief-making correspondent goes further that we are convinced that he has misapprehended and misrepresented the President, Mr.Bender, the correspondent ia question, is tn line with the @agruntied newspaper man, just bad from Paris, who a week ago got = 1 trounced for the same thing by \u201cthe best of the American press, in gesying that the President's 1 on the completion of the naval racts under way the very condition of things that eventuated in this horrible war.The Rule of the Seas.Apart from the correapondent\u2019s innuendo, no fault can be found with the President's alleged maritime policy.Seventy years ago his country was in proud and successful competition with the mother country at sea, and couid show some color for its transformation of the oll English ditty \u201cinto Columbia, the Pride of the Ocean\u201d The Boston elipper ships were the pride of the seas.The protective policy adopted in 1860 almost abolished the nation's ocean commerce, at the same time de- ing much to alienste both Great Britain and the Southern States, with direful consequences.President Wilson's study is to reverse these conditions, and give his country the place she is able to tal « In the world's noean commerce.Britnnnia owes largely to America\u2019s mistake the commercial supremacy by which she holds her trident so proudly aloft.Tt ie to be owned that the unshackiing of United States sea activity would be the greatest possible threat to Britain's eminence.But ter of the most maritime nation taking to the sha.But the correspondent in tc be entirely mistrusted when he adds that the President does not favor a joint sea policy between Britain and the United Htates.What then does he mean by his \u201cLeague of Peace\u201d?From that we could only gather that the President, instead of wanting to make the world safe for democracy or for anything else, was bent oa bring- {ng about new and still more hateful collisions.We have it since from Washington, not without still a faint suggestion of the same threat of building up à sea pewer to rival that of Britain, that the President's purpose in his crusade ia If he can, to internationalise the meas, but that short of that be would desire to have equal part with Great Britaty these- on.Is this sm unworthy ambition?The Fourteen Oracles.Mr.Roosevelt has done a» good thing in throwing Mr.Wilson's fourteen oracles into the melting-pot to se how they will stand analysis Some of the English papers have persisted in declaring Mr.Wilson to be a master of lucid English.It always interests them over there to find good English speech coming from \u201cAmerica.\u201d Mr.Roosevelt, on the other hand.says most of these fourteen propositions ure vague and ambiguous; which is probably the way they have struck most of us simpler people.Mr.Roosevelt says the President himself has rejected one of them outright, and has interpreted another in directly the opposite sense to its plain meaning.He says that none of the powers, except the defeated ones, have accepted the fourteen pcint program.and tha , except the pro-Germans and the pacifists, the United States has not accepted them.It has, indeed, had no chance to pronounce upon them, unless at the late elections, when, If they were a factor at all, it rejected them.He concludes with the hope that Mr, Wil.there is Ro unfriendiiness in the dauzh- son has not gone to Europe to try to MONUMENT OF THE WAR.Le an umpire between \u201cour allies und our enemies,\u201d but to act loyally one of the allies.It is Mr.Roosevelt's specisi function in public lite to with- an stand and decry Mi: Wilson, in thèse deys a loyal upposition is recognised as a necessity of populyr xovernment: and one of its best functions is to put the torch to camouflages of ail morts, and find out what those in power are at.' The High Arbiter.Mr.Wilson, from leng befnre entering the war, proposed himself as a final judge and divider between the quarrelling powers in the day of judgment.This was his leading argument for thinking veutrally, as a judge is bound to do.The United States would, he mid, be, a8 a neutral, in sn exceptionally good position to fultil this Jove-like function.When German war madness forced him from that position, he still \u2018held that the United ttates was not one of the Allies, and that from its exceptional moral position of having nothing in the way of territory to gain by the of the judicial beach an between t!.sel(-goekers of the ald world.Hin claim has been acknowledged by the defeated powers, whose hope for clemency cratres In him.But the Aliles, who have done the fighting and the suffering, prefer to accept him as one of themselves, though an important one, iD view of the enormous unexhausted power that he wields and in view, no doubt.of the moral strength of his® position in having, itke Canada, no territory to claim.It is probable.indeed, that he wili go further than Canada in dealing with the question of indemnity.We are told, we do not know how true it is, that Canuda ts going to claim all that the war has cost her\u2014that is, financially: she cannot asie her children back.The United States, from the greatness of her wealth, is able, and has before this shown herself to be minded, to act in such matters, as æ true knight- errant, at her own charges She Joined the other powers in suppressing the Boxer rebellion, but refused har share of the indemnity levied by the altied powers on China.In that she stepped apon a mare lordly moral plane than the rest: and was certainly not without her reward.The Chinese, with answering chivalry, consecrated the whole amount to educating young Chinamen in the United States, a policy which has had its speedy nequel in a friendly Chinese republic.\u201cGive and it shall be given unto you.for with what measure ye mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.\u201d The President is certainly lonked to by all parties to this settiement as a moderating influence, who wild seek to apply the divine law in restraint of human vengeance and greed.The Good Ways of Democracy.President Wilson's phrase: \u201cTo make the world safe for democracy\u201d has become current coin in ail languages, and will remain monumental on the pages of history in the ages tn come, an expressing the very essence of this war, The war is now over.but its figure in history will grow larger and larger an its epoch re.Cedes, an heing the world's greatest carnal struggle.We are convinced that as there has been no such earthquake before, neither indeed shall there he.That is not, however, tu may that there will nod be yet more notable conflicts and victories.The battles will be fought more and more in the arena of conviction, and less and less in that of force.The first thought of every reformer is that the law should dn this or that; even though it may be something that the people notoriously do mot want done.Agitation for a law is often the tent avaliable way of converting the pen- ple to the need of it.Put it is vain under democratic conditions to blame statesmen for not doing what the people dn not plainly want them to do, This consideration may, by the way, \u2018be appiled to the tobacco question, with regard tn which a Ms- thodist dhinister correspondent criticizes the recent Conference for siack- ness.The ssme correspondent points out that the use of tobacco han enormously increased, and has been in prodigious demand during the war =| account of its momentarily scdot'w qualitiep, thus making it evident that a very great deal of education is called for before governments can be looked to, to do much more than has been dons in making ®he use of to.bacoe by hoys illegal.Indeed, the war has heen taken advantage of by those interested to glority tobacco.The organ of these people has glorified it as it never glorified the blensed gne- pel.The glory of democracy le that it means, not to control the people, hut to convince the people.and that what is needed more than a law is à gospel.By that we

about such a contract.It will thus be seen thet ft ta definitely the small group of men who have taken on them selves the government of the country with whom the (armers must reckon, im the matter of wheat prices, and not their elected represcniatives, The Price of Wheat.What tien will Sir Robert Borden, at al, do about wheat?Last, year we had & fixed price of 83.20 a hushel.In the United States the price is fixed at about that until 1920.In Great Britain à high price has been fixed for a will longer period.In Canada we have mo price fixed for the next crop, a large part of which \u201cis already in the ground.Argentine and Australias Wave during® the \u201cwar amassed large -utocks of wheat that could not be transported for luck of shipping.It is suid that should the price of wheat fail next summér to a dollar and a half a bushel the United States Government would.stand fo tose from half a billion to a billion dollars, and that should Canada fix the price ut last year's figure, the Canadian Governnient would In such a case luse wo hundred million dollars, or about u fifth part of the whole war dubt.if the above mentioned de- i cline in price took place.As a result the Canadian Government hans sent à couple of men over to Great Britain tu consult Sir Robert Konden, and it is said that he in turn is going to ark the conference of the Alties to take some action.The fear of cheap wheat does not seem a very substantial une.The whole of Europe is hungry for wheat, and would devour in very short time all that Australia and Argentina can spare.Another cunmderation thut will keep up the price wilt be the continued shortage of { slipping.Next summer, il price terms \"are satisfactorily concluded in Febru.| ars, as expected, every ship that plies jthe scas will be wanted Jor use between Furoye and North America.! only where nbselute necessity calls, or extraordinary\u2019 freight rates are to be + had, will there be ships away from this route.The very fact that the United States und Britain have already set an arbliraty pi likewise, its motion would go far to remove the unseftied factor that remains.Naturally, as a counter stroke, Italy, France, Qeeece.Belgium and Bri- Win will be barguiniag for the 1919 crops of Rumagiy, Russia and India.But to secure them they will have to bid against starving Austria and Germany, so that bidding may well go high.In the epd we shall probably be controlled by whatever action Is taken in the United Siates whose lead we have followed in most of our war measures.1 Fixing Prices, .- .wd In regard to the principle of setting a price for wheat that is higher than that which might be expected to result from cut-throat competition, or lower than that whidh might result from unrestricted trading, if the next world crop is poor: there is much that remains to be tibeght out: The fixing of 18 cobtrary to long.estabtfshed wud challenges the laws of supply apd.demand.It it is to be dome in one \u2018thing, why not in others?And that brings us into a new world.There is, however, very valid excuse for the demand for fixing minimum price, on wheat that will be a little higher than it is calculated can be ubtained con the open market.It is that.by organising and decuring urtificial prices for itself, city labor has made the purchasing price of all manufactured articles that the farmer needs of an artificial height, and in exchanging srain at an openly competitive price tor the products of labor ut an artificuly fixed price the farmer gets the wurst of the deal.&.lag as lahor fixes itg price by united action the farmer will be at a great disadvantage 1: he does not du (he same, god the onl: way to do it 16 to have the government fix.prices for at least the more important staple articles of the farm.In doing this however, the (Government must take the responsibility of paying more for the crop than ' may get for It.A Free Nation.On Novemher 23nd President Wilson signed the Emergency Agricultural Appropriation Bill, with its legislative rider providing for, natonal prohibi- ton from the first of July next, until the United Ktates army Is demobilized.the price will go a

total prohibl- plete.The amendment also prohibits the importation of any intoxicating\u2019 beverage into the country for the same period.lt in a aericue matter for Canada that the United states, while about it, did not prohibit export as well as manufacture, import and sale, There must be large stocks of Mquor in various parts of the country, and we may cxpect there will be endeavors on the part of the liquor men to dump these upon Canada.It is for our government {to protect us from dumping.Fiction and Fact.Ro tar as the law aims at protecting her awy, people, the United Btates te to be congratulated, Her government has very froperiy recognised no distinction between whiskey, beer and wine.All are intoxicating.all waste good foodstuffs, all hinder the exertion of the utmost power of the nation in the labors of reconstruction, all are dircet incentives to extravagance and woastefulneas\u2014therefore all come under tho ban as enemies of the country.As the law now stands, therc can be no plea of class legislaion What ip sauce for the beer drinking goose is sauce for wine-drinking gander.Of course, the prohibition amendment met opposition.Before the Senats Committee some officials of the Bhipplag Board endeavored to make out a case for beer, telling the old story that if it were taken from the shipbnilders, their discontent would be reflected in their work.But Secretary Daniels told how, after sale of intoxicants had ben stopped in the neighborhood of the navel establish- meats, the output of the workmen had increased.He referred especially to Mare Island Navy Yard im Californias, and to Seattie\u2014output im- creased, and the workmen apd the community more prosperous, Dying Groans.The usual deépe is furnished to our liquor advertising papers regarding the blue ruin which is about to desolate New York and other cities when the prohibition wave gets in its evil work How 1t will mean higher rates fog.the hotels, and lower rentals to owners of hotel properties How it-will ba the \u201chardest industrial and financial blow ever landed on the community\u201d (1) How immense revenues hitherto devoted to educational and pension purposes will be unobtainable, How property valued at close on $100,000.000 will be practically wiped out.How when 7.000 saloons and forty-one breweries close, 56,000 men will be out of employment, and 10.000 storerooms will be vacant, and investments of millions of dollars will be rendered useless.How the $729.000,000 brewery industry will fall Jtke = house of ccrds.And yet we are told that\u2014 even to save the people of the United States these heart-breaking and staggering losses\u2014there will bo-no attempt on the part of the liquor fraternity to nullify the law.All this wall is nonsense.Wherever prohibition has been tried it has paid.It has neither hurt the hotels nor the hotel business, It has made for the.improvement ot property and for civio prosperity.It has meant that Investments have gon: into legitimate and healthy industries which have employed more people aad paid more wages.With a sober pen- ple, as Gladstone foresaw, there has been no difficulty in finding revenue For, as every economist knows, the liquor trade never paid a cent of ex.venue.It merely collected many mlil- lions from the public, and paid over a smail percentage to the government, over against immense burdens that it laid upon the government.It actéd the part of those medieval robbers and pirates who used to pay over to the authorities a small fraction of their plunder for a practical license to rob and murder, Many of those who are making such doloful prophec'es now will, by this time next year, be trying to explain that they meant something altogether difterent.The Dawning Day.And by the time demobilization is complete it is not extravagant to hope that the United States will be under prohibition by constitutional amendment.Of the thirty-six states needed to ratify this amendment, fourteen have already done so.There are twenty-three dry states which have not yet voted upon the resolution.| Then it Is considered very likely that some \u201cwet\u201d states, disgusted with fiquor rule, will also ratify.So we may perhaps hope to ses, early in 1919, our neighbor nation enter upon fits many new tasks with the incubus of the drink traffic ?wrever removed from ite shoulders, Will

legislation; and, third, that the returning soldiers ATe expressing some resentment that prohibition hus been enacted in their absences.One or two speakers argued that fllicit stills can be set up at small cost, and that the city mn a greater risk in allowing this sort of thing than in permitting license holders to well standard \u201cgoods\u201d In any case, even it spirits were banished, it wns suggested that the Government might still see the desirableness of allowing wine and beer to be sold.Does the Country Want It?The question is a fair one: Does the country want it?Parliament can- mot met unless it does.As to the various points brought up by the liquor men, it may be noted that in this province at least the war had nothing to do with the decision of so many communities to banish liquor.The war was not mentioned in their contests In the city vf Montreal the war and repression elsewhere no doubt greatly accentuated the llquor evil As for their judgment of Labor and the soldiers, the Licensed Liquorers are po doubt honest.The labor men and the soldiers whom they come iu contact with are just the ones to give them that notion about those they represent.But all the gains prohibition has made, both In the United States and in Canada, have been made by the will \u2018of the working people.It is a reform for the people.carried out by the people.Certainly if ever there \u2018was an enemy to Labor it ia the drink traffic.The employess of that traffic work under most unhealthy conditions.The death rate of\" those who make drink and those who eeil \u2018it.is abnormally high.Then, in proportion to the capital invested, it pays less wages and employs fewer Deobie than any of the reputable industries.The Liquor Capitalist is in every way a genuine enemy to the worker and to the community.As to the soldiers, also, some of their spokesmen have lowered their reputation as warriors for liberty by championing liquor.But the soldiers are simply our brothers in khaki, and in so far as they are Canadians are like-minded with other Canadians.The young manhood of many temperance societies enliated almost in a body.Some of them may have yielded to temptations in the artificial conditions of warfare.But others have learned the mischief of drink as they would not have learned it at home.Regarding the fear expressed by some of the liquor advocates that illicit manufacture and illicit sale would flourish uader prohibition, it may be asked, Do they not flourish under license?It is certain that Montreal has a bigger (litcit trado than Toronto.Of course, whero one ia licensed to make people drunk, the unlicensed sale betrays itself; but it is therefore the more ens- ily watched.And as to & ssml-prohibl- tion regime under which beer and wino would be sold nothing could be more harmful.Many years ago England thought by multiplying beer-houses she would promote temperatice.Instead of that the increase in drunkenness was something horrible

make ita prohibitory law as stringent as its provincial powers can achieve.It would, to all appearance, have the support of the mass of the people.Buch action is needed.The province is mot to be made

statement for ia years work Besides paying ite ten percent dividend, it has paid a two percent bonus and added a quarter of.a million dollars to the profit and tons balance carried forward.Its total net earnings bave besn about thirteen and a half percent on its capital stock of sixteen million, but it must not be forgotten that the stockholders have laid aside a rest of sixteen million, wo that the earnings of the year are just under seven peroent om the capital and rest.The general manager, Sir Frederick Williams Taylor, in his statement tells us (hat in spite of the large subscriptions of the bank's customers to government loans the deposits have increased during the year by about eighty million dollars, which is an increase of one-sixth.Touching on the future he says, while not assuming the role of a prophet, he can at least go the length of stating that \u201cthe policy of the bank has been and is to conduct its business on the probability that both may decline rapidly, that values are certain to fall away presently, and that there may at the same time be a diminution in demand.Either vf these conditions would be serious.A combination of the two would be disastrous to unprepared merchants and munufactur- ers carrying heavy stocks\u201d It is tu be hoped that those merchants and manufacturers who had the advantage during the last few years of a very rapid rise in prices will have been provident envugh to save their excess war profits to a sufficlent extent to meet such an emergency.If they have not Sir Frederick's warning should be taken to heart, for who knows how suddenly values may break.The note girculation of ths Bank of Montreal now amounts to forty-two million dollars, about one- fifth of the total bank note circulation The challenge!

In addition to wholesome feed, plenty disease occurred during the year the] 0° room, à chance to exercise, and æood encountered in istng In New Englund it is -\u2014 sheep business in New England, and its bearing upon several sources of loss haz already been touched upon Excepting possibly disease.which Is to a large cxtent avoidable, (t la be- lleved that more losses in the shrep business are due to lack of god care and feed than to any other one thing.Although sheep may be said to function to some extent as wcavengers\u2014 and too many make the mistake of feeding on the assumption that sheep can thrive esting weeds and cleaning up fence rows and wastelands\u2014like any other animals they must have good care if good results are to be rx- pected from them.The requisites of good care for sheep may be briefly enumerated as follows: Plenty of wholesome feed at all times; dry quarters.good ventilation, aod an opportunity to exercise while being stabled; and close attention at lambing time.Occasional (nspection and regular dipping is also essential to insure freedom from lice, ticks, and skin diseases, _.Summer Feeds.As to feeds, in most cases sheep in New England require during the summer months nothing but good pasture.In the more favored sections of New Eagland, where natural grading land ta to be had, but little other pasture is necessary.In les favored sections, where pastures do mot hold out throughout the summer, other feed should be provided.It has been found impractical in most cases to keep sheep in New England unless pasturage can be depended upon during the - entire pasture ssason, or at least until aftor the field crops are.harvested, when the sheep can be allowed for a time the run of the entire farm Some make à practice of pasturing sheep with other stock, while others prefer to have hem alone.Sheep are known to eat « great variety of herbage, and the majority agree that sheep render a vatesti service tn Mmepius down \u2018weeds that cows will not eat.other aané, it ds known that sheep crop much closer than do cows, and it is agréed'By the majority that for this.reasos pws do not do as well.uniess thé pasturage Is luxuriant, when pastured with sheep.It is 'esphcially important that plenty of pasturs be provided during the \u2018tate: summer and fall when the lambe née té be put in shape for market and the rest of the flock kept ta the best ef condition for breeding.At this senson ef the year the regulur pastures usually afford but little feed, and that of an inferior quatity, so that ft is necessary for good resulte to mako provisiom for other than the regular pasture, A good practice among many growers is to separate the lambs from the ewes about a month before marketing time, pasturing the lambs on second-growth élover, or in many Instances allowing them the run of the entire farm, and keeping the ewes on the old pasture until after the lambs have been turned off, when the ewes also are allowed the run of the farm.This practice works out satiafactorily where extra fencing for the sheep Is not necessary and where the old pasture affords sufficient feed to keep the breeding stock in good condition until they oan be allowed the run of the place.A safer practice, which is already being followed by a few of the more successful growers and which is to be highly recommended, is the growing of some forage crop for late summer and early fall pasture.Rape makes an excellent crop for this purpose and is one well adapted to New England conditions.To give best results rape should be sown on good land, loam preferred, which Is not subject to drought, since the crop often fails in dry seasons.If raised on weedy land the seed should be sown in drills 30 inches apart at the rate of 1 to 1 1-2 On the)\u2019 corn is cut.Cultjvation induces growth and increames the yield, though the resills obtulned by seeding corn on Eood land are very satisfuctory, One acre of the crop grown alone, or 2 acres following corn, is usually suc- ficient to fatten from 30 to 40 lambs if allowed the run of other fields, ax is usually the practice wheres rape Is grown.Care should be taken in re- æard to bloating.when first turning sheep into a field of rape, but after the first few feeds no trouble need be expected.Thin crop, it more generally sown would do much toward sotving the fail feed question and should he more extensively used where sheep are kept.« Winter Feeds.As to winter feeds, any one of the finer hays makes good forage for sheep.Legumes are to bo preferred 1¢ not too coarse, coarse hays making poor feeds for slicep.Alsike Clover is particular is to be recommended, while large Mammoth Clover is too course.Some make use of this, however, by allowing the sheep to pick It over vad eat only what they want, feeding the coarser parts to other stock.\u201cKowæn.\u201d «s it is known In New England, or \u2018the aftermath from hay lands, is said to make an axcellent feed for sheep, and many plan to save their rowen to Teed the sheep just prior to and at lambing time.Redtup, fine lowland hay, and what is known locally in many places as June grass, all make good dheep hays, whereas \u201cHerds Grass\u201d (fimo- thy), millet.und other coarse hays are not to be desired.In addition to dry roughage, some form of succulent feed should be provided, This form of feed is too often lacking: but it is pasticularly @sen- tial In keeping sheep ih good condition] during the winter, and if fed with the | right kind of bays probably refucrs! considerably the ameunt of gruig re- cuired.For New

and Most growers agree that some grain at thot time is essential Whole or ground oats and wheat bran.sometimes with a little oll mea), Is the gratn mixture most commonly used.The amount of grain needed seems to depend much upon the other fords available and to some extent upon the sca- son.If plenty of the finer varteties of hay, particularly clover, has ° been used, together with succulent feeds in the form of roots or silage, but little ærain is needed.On the other hand, it the roughage has consisted largely of coarse, inferior hay, and little or no succulent feed.grain needs to he fed in much larger quantities and for & much longer period.As a general thing it will not pay tc keep sheep untss the hays cited as best adupted to their needs can be grown together with some form of succulent feed.Some growers feed no grain at all, but the better ones make a practice of graining for a time, from 4 to 6 weeks In the spring of the year before turning out to pasture, and without doubt it is feed well worth while.The principal thi is to keep the flock in good condition at all seasons oft the year, and in order to do this nome grain i» usualy essential for at least a month (a the spri of the year, especially if the lambs come before the ewes go on grass ; Fresh Air and Exercise.It {is known that these two factors of care, which have so direct an effect upon \u2018the health of sheep, are too often Ignored, and their Importance can not be overemvhasised.Elahorate and expensive ventilating devices or buildings are not necessary, the main principle to he observed in making provision for ventilation being to make sure that fresh alr is to be had at all times without exposing the flock to drafts.The pens should he roomy, at all times dry, and the sheep should be allowed à chance to get out of doors during the day.If necossary to indice exercise, à part of the feed can be scattered out of doors on the snow, but at no time whouf® sheep be exposed to driving snow storms or drenching raias.: study wan made, (aking the ahcep- rulsing scciona of New Englund as a whole, yeur in and year out, it is known that much bus results through disuse.Home growers have

keeping sheep Is advised to acquaint himself with the asymp.tome and treatment of each.It ia he.dvved that much loss cun thus be averted.\u2018 Stomach worms, grub tm the head, nodular disease of the intestines, and Indigestion are the troubles most frequently reported Iw New England and seem to be the ones to which most loss is due.Skin dixcases and ticks are also important and give considerable trouble unless regular dipping ts practiced, .Much complaint Is heard of flocks running out or degenerating, und many breeders xay thut they have to sell out and start their flocks anew at intervals of every 8 or 10 years.It is believed that a great deal of the running out of flocks 13 due as much to worm trouble, which is not recognized as such In many cases, fas to anything else.A change of pasture at intervals of every 10 days or two weeks is recommended as a safeguard against form trouble.though this is not always practicable as New England pastures are located.It is likely that much more could be done in combating this dise, by makin more extensive use of aftermaths and forage crops in aup- plementing the rexular pastures.As prevention of infection is the most practical means of handling this trouble, It is important that the breeder inform himself of the method outlined tn \u2018Farmers\u2019 Bulletin 840° in order to be better enabled to cope with It.A few growers, who already have regular pastures so located as to permit shifting, recognise the advantages of changing pusture and make a practice of changing their flocks from one pastureto another, and sometimes to a third, during the same season, and though Ih most cases they can give no Æcod reason for their success, they claim to get better results by so doinx.Since the length of time on each pasture Is much greater than two weeks (the mtrimum time a pasture can be occupied and insure safety from infec- n}.it is likely that the advantage ined in this respect ta due to the better feed afforded rather than to the prevention of worms, yet the practice is a good one and should be more generally followed.The appearance of some flocks brought under the writer's observation, and their histories as told by the owners, lead ti the conclusion that most of the sn.called running out not due to discase can be attributed to poor care and to degeneration as a result of long-continued inbreeding.In.hreeding to any gredt extent should be avoided and new blond introduced occasionally In order to maintain vigor and vitality.The disease factor is one which can hardly be overemphasized, It appears to he one of the most important factors, probably much more 80 at present than the dog question, in the development and profitableness of the sheep industry of New England.The Dog Question.What has many times been set forth an one of the greatest obstacles to sheep raising in New England la the dog.Loss from canine depredation ls considerable, and it le sometimes clrimed that the dog was responsible for the decline In sheep raising In the eastern portions of the country.From the figures heretofore given, showing the profits under former prices, together with investigation in respect to this particular question, it would appear that other \u2018factors, particularly disease, low Prices, and the develep- ment of cheaper Rrazine lands In the West, were each quite as potent ne the dog in this regard.Tt dust not be inferred from this that the dog question lu to be ignored.It is still a serious one, and one that calls for turther remedial legislation, in some States at least.There is, however, a marked improvement in public sentiment and «ood prospect that sheep growers will et additional protection in this regard.6 Wild animaln, particularly bears.are said to be quite an great à menace as the dog In some of the more remote ventilation, nont of which can be had in crokded quarters.Some farmera keeping no more thin 40 ewes nepar- ated them into two flocks, during both summer and winter, saying thyt they obtiined better results by so doing.It may be that In these Cases housing space wus so arranged az to accommodate only 20 head in one flock, but in the light of the experience of others, It is belicved that as many as 40 sheep, and probably a few more, can be safely handled in,one flack, provided all are Kood strong individuals, housing space is adequate, and feed and pasturage plentiful.\u2018Farmers\u2019 Bulletin 840° points out that at least 30 ewes, or, better still.60 or more, can be much more eçono- mically handied than a very small flock.and that because of its being a much more important part of the farm business the large flock is likely to receive more attention und better care than the very small one, In a few instances large flocks nf sheep are being kept in New England with good success, but these cases are the exception rather than the rple, and oceur where penctically the entire hu.siness of the farm I» caring for sheep, One of the largest breeders in yew Hampshire keeps on un average faom 225 to 250 breeding ewes, keeping 1¥em both summer and winter in three separate flocks.Where close attention can be given, such as these Mocks receive, results from large flocks are satisfactory, but such flocks are not to be recommended for the general farmer, who has not the time to devote to gtving them the close attention required.\"While ft is no douht possible, under certain conditions, especially at present prices, to make sheep in large flocks pay, it te more than likely that the small flock\u2014consisting nf from 20 to 50 head, depending upon housing space and available summer pasture\u2014kept in conjunction with dairy cattle as a general farm proposition, is the most desirable flock for New England.The figures given show that, with but few exceptions, sheep are kept in practically no other way: the experiences of growers lead \u2018to thé same conclusina, and farmers theméelves are of the same opinion, Will: make à profitatie growth.Breeding Young Ewes.While many young ewes are hred to lamb at yearlin gage, the advisability of the practice as a general one le quetionable.are of the opinion that the growth of the valved If she Is bred to [amb at yea- ling age.and that, while many young owes can he bred to lamb at that age, small stock will result if this practice is followed.Others,

to the first proposition, anc sort, was ita lack of tillable land, or at least enough of such land on which to row the necessary forage for wintering the breeding stock.This difficulty could perhaps be obviated hy operating the range with tillahle farm land in the same ot other localities, utilizing the range as pasture during summer and housing breeding stock during the winter on the farms

blood are also to be found in some flocks, especially among the older flocks, whose owners were in the business when the production of wool was the main reason for keeping aheep.Most of the flocks are

to detect the marks of any particular hreed.As to the comparative merits of the different breeds there is great diversity of opinion.All agreed that the \u201cdown\u201d breeds are more easily handled in reward to feffcing, but it ia claimed that some of these breeds are less hardy and do not withstand the rigorous New England climate as well as some other breeds.Any number of instances are known, however, wheres the breeds condemned for this reason are being kept with good success, 80 that se'ne- thing other than the breed is ~vidently at fault with those who claim poor success.The Cheviots, on the other hand, are noted for thelr hardiness, and some prefer to cross ia with the Cheviots in order to secure this hardiness, while the same advantage is claimed for the Merinos by thuse who till have that blood.Dorset crosses are kept where early lambing qualities are desired.For à genèral fann propositon New Pngland needs u dual-purpose sheep that will produce a good heavy lamb in a

if careful selection of breeding stock is practiced and good care given at all times.Within this class It is a matter of choosing one's favorite breed, picking out good strong ewes each year and
