We do not see any hardship bennilse we are so con- stituted that if we see n man struggling we are only loo ready in lend a helping hand.

That the price of dairy products and potatoes. though somewhat lower than lust year. was more than offset by the higher prices for pork, poultry and seed l-’i‘illil, was another statement to which lMr. Saunders took exception in the Speech from the Throne, Oilr far- mers, he said, know better than we do whether that is true or not. The price oi’ dairy products and potatoes were in fact a great deal lower. it is quite true that the prices for pork, poultry and seed groin have increased, but did that offset tho other? Ally farmer would laugh at that her-arise he would know it is positively not correct

\Vith the llerulrtruerlt of Agri- culture the speaker hall no cause to complain. but he did not. think conditions had improved uurler the present goverurucrlt. ‘it. is truo they have done some little addition al things for the ilairy Associa- tion; he understood they contri- ltilllllillltilll one quartet" of the. sal- ary of the dairy inspector. if they have done anything else he would be glad to hear it.
