stress and strain commercially. 'l‘here is not a. business anywhere that has not experienced hard and

depressing times, and it would have‘

been a miracle had the Potato Growers, or kindred co-operative associations, escaped. As it tumfd out, however, the Potato Growers‘ association came through last year with a fairly good record, all things considered. indeed, according, to the Bank of Nova Scotia, there were few balance sheets submitted to them more pleasant to look at than that of the Potato Growers‘ As- sociation. When a bank declares a

balance sheet to be “pleasant" it is‘

about the highest. testimonial to financial stability that an organiza- tion can obtain.

The bottom went out of the pota- to market last year. if farmers gen- erally, and the directors oi the As- sociation in particular, could have forseen that conditions would be worse in the Spring than they were in the Fall they, no doubt, would have allowed their potatoes to go ifor what was offered instead of holding them. Past experience, ‘however, had proven that storing potatoes through the Winter was profitable. This year was the ex- ception and the Potato Growers suf- fered. This is no reflection on the business management or on the policy pursued by farmers as a whole and the Potato Growers as an organization,

This is not likely in count for much in the minds of those who have the development of Qcuiada, industrially, really atheart. {There will be more than sufficient Qiydro power left in Canada to meet any possible competition which the |sale of power to the United States ‘may incur. The ‘neaty will have to ibe submitted to Parliament and pongrcss before its ratification, ‘but there seems little likelihood of

,it's being turned down. Both coun- tries are naturally rejoiced that terms of agreement have at last lbcen arrived at, and that the rights and interests of both coun- tries have been fully and satisfac- torily protected, while the enormous ‘advantage of direct water outlet to the Atlantic is made possible to the great cities of Upper Canada ‘and the middle West.

AN ADMISSION

When profession l politicians get away from the political platform and down to business they see things differently. Iibr instance, certain Liberal candidates and or- |ganisaiion officials, and the party's llocsl organ, have been blaming Prime Ministor Bennett for being =the cause of the agricultural de- pression through which we have ‘been passing. We were told in

and answers to critic-‘sms given 111i

the balance sheet of the Audltorsi should do a great deal to wipe out the effects oi adverse criticism dur- ing the past year. No organization doing business on the scale of the Potato Growers’ Associaton, and in competition with private interests, can hope to escape criticism. The fact that the organization as a whole has not been affected or prejudiced by the criticism is duo largely to the fact that the Secre- tary and Manager, Mr. J. W. Boul- m, is thoroughly competent not only to manage its affars but to take the platform in its defense ‘iwhen need be. Perhaps it would be better for all concerned were there more frequent meetings of the As- gsociation for discussions such as {took place on Monday. Nothing is to be lost and a great deal to be gained in a oo-uperative organiza- tion by keeping the members fully - informed concerning its affairs, and this can best be done by holding I periodic meetings. Sending out _. notices and circulars are all right in themselves. but after all they do not answer questions that may be Iuuptcd in the recipient's mhl- A get-together, such as Monday's Jneeting, clears the atmosphere and restores confidence. The directors and officials of the Association are to be congratulated, not only on the comparative success of the year's operations, but on retaining the unanimous confidence of the mom‘ crop, as was evidenced by their ire-election.

the report of the secretary, and mint“ county md m ma“ can” -nett's policy that prices had fallen to such a low ebb and that there could be n0 improvement until Mr. Bennett and his party were swept out of office. ‘This, of course, was purely politics. When it comes to business it is a horse of another color. The Hon. J. l. Sinclair at- tended a meeting of the Potato Growers’ Association on Monday, ,and in moving theladoption of the statements and reports congratu- lated the management on the very excellent showing they were gble to ‘make for the year's buslnem ‘and ithe careful explanation which hgd been made to the members present.

That opinion was intensified in the Great War when Germany earned the odium of the world by it! useless and inhuman submarine campaign against merchant traf- fic.

"Critic," writing h: the New statesman and Nation of London, gives the interesting information that Denmark may apply for mem- bership in the British Common- wealth of Nations. He says, in part: “Economically, the Argentine and Denmark are far more parts o‘ the Empire than Canada and South Africa, and I understand that there is a movement in Den- mark ln favor of applying for men-i- bership in the Commonwealth. This seems to me an excellent idea. We have plenty of historic connections with the Danes and it would be easy to add the necessary sentiment to the basic business ad- vantages. We should soori be re- minding ourselves ef the Danish place names and traditions in many parts of the country: the story of Alfred and the cakes would gain a new significance and the story of Canutds attempt to rule the waves is a sounder legend than Rule Bri- tai-iia." Evidently Denmark finds Britain a mighty fine country to do business with.

The World War really ended at Lausanne last week. This may sound a bit strange, remembering that this is July, 1982, and that hostilities came to a close in Eu- ropa in November of 1918. but the description is an accurate one nevertheless. The guns ceased fir- ing on the well remembered day l4 years ago, but that was’ only the first chapter. The second cams to a practical end in Bwitaerland when the nati got togethe on an agreement that is of the highest importance.

lleucoforth, to recall ilm slogan famous nearly thirty years ago, "England expects that every for- eigner will pay his duty." says J. L. Ganvin in the London Observer. This is not in the very least a chuuvinlstic epigram. It ia the meaning of tariff equality. As Bri- tishgoodshavehadio payevery- where abroad for their entry, so must similar goods from abroad pay for admission here.

very rapid beating of the heart; the heart suddenly increasing its rate from ‘i2 or 76 unto 100 d: 100 buns to the minute. This is call- ed tachycardia - “holly”, meaning rapid and ‘cardia’, the heart. ‘rhcre are certain nerve centres in the heart that regulate its speed, something interferes with one or other of these centres, and the heart speeds up to the above rate. Just what causes this is unknown, some research men being of the op- inion that it is due to some shock or emotional disturbance. Although the heart beats very fast, the beat is perfectly regular, In most cases the attack will come on without warning, and ab- parently without any definite cause. Where the tachycardia begins in the upper part of the heart, there is usually no organic heart ailment; if in lower part heart trouble may be found in some cases, but for- tunately ihia type is not ‘rhere- is usually no pain, al- though a. patient may occasionally complain of a. tightness in the reg- ion of the heart. The blood pressure usually falls during an attack. As ‘ ’ once before there are various methods of stopping the attack such as pressing the fist into the abdomen, and pressing the eyeballs with the fingers. - Of course the first thought after the first attack is to have a. thor- ough examination of the near-r. if possible the electm cardlograph should be used ‘which records ex- actly what the heart ls-doing.
