A PLAIN QUESTION.

A column and a half of irrelevant verbiage in the local Liberal organ about Premier Saunders‘ brief before llie inter-Provincial Conference oi i927, and not a word in explanation oi the omission of any reference in that brief to the recommendation of the Duncan Commission on the sub- ject of our claims in lieu or public lands!‘ “Associated with this class o! claim," says the Duncan report, "there was a special case submitted to U5 by the Government oi Prince Edward island?‘ and after reviewing the case as presented by the Hon. J. D. Stew- art the Commission reported: “We think i: must be looked at in the general ﬁnancial revision or IBM‘!- jizstment which we are suggesting for the Alarillme Provinces."

Premier Saunders’ brief begins with

‘ can report to show that Prince Ed-

ward Island, along with the other ilaritime Provinces, requires addi- tional ﬁnancial assistance iromthe

Dominion. Yet he completely ig-

‘ ‘ nores an important recommendation ‘_ Helm-h deals 5;i_\cjﬂca1]y with Qufusing Canadian labor and material,

Notes By The Wqy

Relief for farmer: is lust now the big question among the politicians in Washington. Competition from Can- ada. is the bane of the American farmers‘ life, hence the highest- D70- tecdve tarlﬂ in the world must be boosted higher to shut it out.

Last year Canadian wheat growers made an average of 22 bushels to the acre, while the American farmers av- eraged barely l5. When one consid- ers that both of these farmers sowed an equal quantity of seed and bestow- ed an equal amount of labor in ploiving, harrowing, planting and harvesting the acre. it will become apparent at once ho\v vast the dil- fererice in ﬁnancial returns must be when applied to a crop of 500 million bushels, /

In the pioneer days of wheat growing in the Maritime Provinces, gone nivv perhaps never to return, 20 bushels to the acre was called “half a. crop." To sow four bushels of seed arid harvest only 15. as our neigh- bors across the border did last year. was poor business.

What. alls Canadian wheat is a question that has been discussed of late.

It lacks gluten, we are told and it will no longer make bread as it did formerly, Yet the answer to the question is easy. It doubtless comes from growing wheat. on the same ﬁelds year after year until the gluten ilias been sucked out of ihe ground.

The vast areas cropped with wheat in the West are never fertilized, they are too big for that. Crop rotation is not practised. Soil mining is what is going on-perpetually ivhhdraiving the fertility from the soil and put- ting nothing back. '

Buys raised on the farm want to lleave it. That is the common report ‘here and throughout Canada. The Ysame story comes from the United fslates, Australia and elsewhere. The real root of the trouble is that every- ibody wants a white-collar 10b and lshort hours of work these days. It ,ivas hoped that daily mails, the tele- Ephone. radio and motor cars would ihave made the farmer's boys and girls content in their rural homes,

,but that wias a mistake.

Wore boys than girls have been -born in Canada since the war by ‘about 6,000 a year." In ﬁve years, 11021-26, the preponderance of male lchildren amounted to 33,239, accord- ',ing to the Bureau of Vital Sdatistlcs. The like increase oi male over female ’birtlis has been noted in the British

Did you ever realize that your dis- position or temperament is very much like that o! one or both of your par- ents, or their parents’!

Perhaps you have considered, oe- as only a natural sort of thing, be- cause you resemble one or other oi your parents in the color of your hair, eyes, and in the build 0f your body.

Now as these characteristics are to some extent dependent on the juice of the ductles glands, so also may your temperament be due to the balance of these glands.

I have written before about these diictlcss glands and how they ab, feet. the growth, development, and actions of the body: the thyroid glands in the neck secrets a fluid which hastens the action of the dif- ferent processes; the adrenal glands.

which affects or regulates the growth of the bones, and the deposit of fat on certain’ parts of the body.

And now Dr. Huxley of Oxford t has recently 398ml‘ that temperament is large-

ly a matter of the balance of the glands of internal secretion. If these glands are working at, a rate that just fits or suits one another then you will get what might be called the ideal temperament. Many men who had office positions in civil life came back from the war with altered tem- peraments. The violent activities ln- to which they were forced, ioade de- niiinds on these and other 81811155 which their previous life bad never done.

The glands responded by increased activity and a new balance of all the giai-ids was set up. These men be- gan to live at. a new rate or M1819 and have continued to do so.

Now what does this mean?

That these glands with which W6 were born can actually be inﬂuenced lo increase their activity according to the circumstances used to overcome a deﬁciency of that particular gland of the body. ~

The political leaders on both sides were in the meantime concerned with the diplomatic factors which might help to turn the tide ol mill- tary event. While Wilson and the Allies by different methods sought to weaken German morale, the Ger- man diplomats strove earnestly for peace with Russia. The Bolsheviks had agreed to an armistice in De- cembex but the peace negotiations ai- Brest Lltovsk did not. run a smooth course. Germany had accept- cd the formula of ‘no annexatlons end no indemnities,‘ but when the principle was transalated into con- crete demands it was plain that the Germans planned to separate from Russia. the border provinces to form a belt of client States under German dominion. indignation reigned in Petrograd, to which the Russian delegation retumed for a ten day conference with the Bolshevik Gov- ernment. ‘We had no illusions‘ said Trotsky, ‘as to the democratic ienn- ings of the Kuhlmann and Czernin we did not at. that time anticipate with the nature of the German and Austrian ruling classes-it must nev- ertheless, be candidly admitted that. we did not. at that time anticipae that the actual proposals of the

given in yesterday's Guardian seems somewhat unsatisfactory. The reason given for not. leglslating to exclude the public from the north side of the Square is that the public has acquired these rights by user. We could go further and say that the right of user was confirmed by sev- eral acts of Parliament.

It may be urged with Justice that to legislate to take away these rights would virtually amount to expropria- tion without compcnsation, p. drastic proceeding and one seldom resorted to except for the gravest reasons. and yet this is the very thing that

At present the Square is partly fenced off and the public is there- fore excluded. when the library has been erected it is intended to make the north side of the Square into LB Blvden and this can hardly be Ic- |complished without excluding the ,Dublic.

With such a spectacular and futile gesture the Russian delegation left Bresb-Ltmvsk, futile at least so far as

ing the rupture of the, proclaimed by Germany, sums were shortly to sign the peace and subscribe to even more onerous conditions.

‘ In the meantime the rcpcrciission of the negotiation at Bi-est-Litovsk had important effects in both Aus- stria and Germany, and combined with the echoes of President; Wilson's speeches and with food troubles to precipitate one of the most serious industrial arid pacific manifestations of the war. The movement took the form of a general strike, protesting against the failure to obtain peace with Russia. In Germany, where the strike begin on January 28. ns many as a million left work. and the range of the strike covered not merely Berlin, but Hamburg. Cologne, Kiel,

Mannheim, Chenuutz, and ' many other industrial cities. President Wilson watched with

interest for any indication of the weakening of the ‘will to victory‘ in Gemnmy and Austria.
