Ir. Leo's Opportunity l

f.

it is announced that the provincial tiniaters of Agriculture are invited i attend a conference in _Ottawa on larch ll and l2 "to devise ways and v leans of increasing the production .' bacon, butter. eggs and cheese." peprcsentativcs of co-operative so- ‘ ,.cties and other organizations are ' ‘laolnvited. It is rather turious, in lew of what the local Liberal or-l an refers to as the “prosperous: VIPPY and desirable conditions" in‘ ‘ ‘gricultural production, that the Fed-j ial Government should find it-

ste, that lion. W. M. Lea will he ‘hie to attend even at the coat of ab- entlng himself from the opening of he Legislature.

Thore one very effective means i’ stimulating production of butter rld cheese. namely, by adequate tar-_ ‘ é if protection. Mr. Lea has persistent- f ‘r opposed any attempt at upward r'e_- lsion of the tariff against New Zea- . and butter, though every farmer in ‘Yince Edward Island knows that it mean better prices for ollr products on the Montreal and Canadian markets. If better would not stimulate produc- ion, it is difficult tolmsgine what

more practical suggestion l is offered. Mr. Lea. on his eturn, may be‘ able‘ to" _ ,ert the local LiberaL organ to “he opinion evidently held by the ~ federal Government, that the

ieceesity .of increased production A ‘f dairy products is not a con- ervatlvo "high-protection" bog- lty to frighten the farmers into de- handing their rights llnder the trade reaty with Australia and New Zea- ' rand, but a very pressing problem. ifor which some solution will have to tie iollnd.

The Canadian Flag

g The question of the adoption of a distinctive flag for Canada is still ‘wing discussed though in a rather ‘lcademic manner. Every week sees 1 fresh suggestion made to the Fed- pral Government about a distinctlge fllcsign. or an enquiry as to now or ‘vhere the flag should be flown. The Man-st 45cm riot appear to be eon- ‘Lined to any particular section of the Dominion. but the enquiries come _rom virtually every Province, as well ‘ts from the United fitates. Sugges- fslbns, too; have been received for a t Canadian Royal Mail flag. From the aresent attitude of officials oi the h‘; ‘Government, says the Montreal Gas- lfJ itte, thcrc appears _little likelihood of {tiny move to meet the demand oi

save a flag of her own, in addition to the Red Ensign. which is flown ‘rom ships of canadiari registry and from the various Canadian legations.

Our Different Peoples

That we have a separate people in the Maritime. Provinces was~thc opinion expressed by a speaker at a convention oi jewelers in Tgronto the other day. The remark may be accepted. as perhaps it was intend- ed, in a complimentary sense. Qan- ada was described as being made up of four "separate countries." First there was Quebec; next. the Mari- times, “a separate people different entirely!" The third "country" was Ontario. "with the no oer wit Am- erican influence." Then came. the

cessary tog call a_ conference of West,‘ different aILoEElhQI m" ‘he 1is kind. It ‘is to be hoped, at any other three sections.

Obviously, the speaker was not re- ferring to political or geographical r differences. If we are a separate peo- ,pli- in the Maritlmes it is because,‘ 5 like Quebec, we had a very large pro-

‘portion oi the original foundation . lstock oi the country, and because it .

l is the descendants of this foundation lotoolr-the Scotch. Irish. French and iRngllsh pioneers who carved Cflllfidfl ’cut of the wllderness-Ahat are Yefl’ ilargely represented in the Maritime E Provinces today. We areldifferent he'- : cause we have maintained our racial {characteristics We have progressed- but we have not lost our identity with the past.

What Shall It ‘Profit.’

If. as the local Liberal organ con- tends, there was an increase in the average price of butter last year over 1920. there was alsoadecided increase in the cost of production. It. is the profit, and not the price, that the farmer is chiefly interested in. What are the prospects for DTOHIAUIGVDIO- dllction this year in the face of an anticipated importation of 50,000,000 pounds of cheap New Zeaiaild but- ter? New Zealand butter is being of- fered delivered at Charlottetown at 15 cents. This butter can be worked over and put into 2 bound llrlnts at one cent per pound. A 55 lb. box of this practically saltlcss New Zealand butter will work out at from a0 to

four to five pounds a box. or an average of at least £1.50 gross Bill’! or fifty cents a box net, which means nearly one cent a lllllllld Pl'°n""“ very fair selling c mission. Can the Canadian dairymm iuodlm bull" at 34 to 35 cents a pound? If not. how will our ereamery producers dispose of their surplus make next season? No buyer will care to pill‘- chase‘ and hold over to the season of scarcity, excevflmt lit- ! fill" 1°" enough to meet the price of the New Zeaiand produetlor. less earrvlnlz charges, interest, insurance and stor- age. This is the problem that is wor- tying our dairy producers at the pres- ent. time, and it cannot be solved by assuring them that the industry is in a flourishing condition. Our farmers are too intelligent to be fool- ed by the propaganda of interested politicians when the interests, and indeed the vol-y existence, of their mg important industry are at stake.

Thejpromlse of next tourlst_seas- on isbright. Last year broke all re- cords in the numbcrgof tourists who entered Canada. and the same was largely true _of each province from coastjo coast. This year the pros- peets are ‘better.

How are they to be housed and fed’! Jlotei accommodation will be greater in this city and throughout the Ma_ ritimes than ever before. But that is not enough. There are large num- bers of tourists who do not care for life in a hotel. lll their vacation days they prefer a' comfortable farm house away from the bustle of traffic. But not too far away.

Summer tourists include all variet- ies. Some_ of them like an entire change of scene. of food and com- Dany. The?’ llo not find the crowded hotel. whether intown or at an equal- ly crowded sea-side resort to their liking. This story is related in an ex- change.

The writer was staying overnight at a fine farmhouse on the edge of a town. The proprietor drew his atten- tion to two people who llarl register- ed two days before. He said "it was evening when they arrived and asked for accommodation for the night. l asked them to register. but the gen- tleman refused until they had looked at the rooms and inquired the rates. after which he sat down and signed "W. K. and Mrs. Vanderbilt." ‘

It has been noted that the pro- vincial authorities of Quebec have employed expert cooks to visit the small hotels in the country and give instructions in the preparation of dainty dishes for the traveller as well as in the cooking of ordinary food. Itl seems to be sound. advice for all en- i tertainers to give the tourist what he, wants in the way of rest, food andi sleeping comfort at reasonable rates.‘ Such a course. cheerfully carried out‘ affords the best assurance that the visitor will come again.

E v Premier Ferguson says: "Whatever ‘important project ihe Government ',has in mind, whether it be a five- iyear term or anything else, we will ‘submit it to the people. That will al- ways be our policy. It is_the very spirit of responsible government."

A Canadian Geographical Society Ils in process of formation. Such an Iorganiration should have been put in ioperation years ago. but better late than never. It is intended to publish a Canadian Georgaphieal Magazine. 'I‘his monthly is to be edited _by a committee under the chairmanship of Lawrence J.

B]I¢Iolw.BIlll..-Dr JIEMOVING A TAPEWOBMV.

One oi the miserable ailments that unfortunately ls too common _ls to have a tape worm in the intestine. getting the benefit of the food eaten. and in itself a source of pain and dis- comfort to the individual, who is acting as ‘host.’ l

Sometimes there are noisymptoms and the individual does iiot. know that he possesses the tape worm which gets into his system as a small egg in raw beef, or pork. i _ It will often cause anaemia, orrun down condition and nervous symp- toms.

Sometimes there is a loss oi ap- petite, and at other times the patient has a tremendous appetite eating everything and anything.

There is also colicky pains in the abdomen, indigestion. nausea. and vomiting.

Sometimes there is dizziness, head- ache; itchiness of the nose and ‘humming in the ears._

In former days it was customary to starve the patient for a couple ‘of days, which incidently starved the tape worm also; then a small dose of l-hiorlforin _was given which put the tripe worm to sleep. A strong purga- tlre medicine followed and asthe tapeworm was asleep it could not hold on the walls of the intestine by its hooks or suckers, and so was rc- nioved from the body.

Unfortunately the medicine was often too strong for the patient and he was forced to vomit-it. Pumpkin- seeds about three or four ounces. bruised and squeezed carefully to get all the juice ollt of them, is often an effective remedy. All the juice gath- ered is taken at one dose and follow- ed in one hour by a ‘good purge. ’

However Dr. S. Maigulis has been using the duodenal sound-the small tube about as big as a slate pencil- which he puts down thcthroat and after it gets past the stomach it en- tors the small intestine on the sides of which the tape worm is hanging.

The patient flas had no food for some hours and has also taken a purge. and before the medicine is put‘ down the tube an enema is given. The medicine is aspidium or male fern. which is now generglly used.

Tile advantage of eougsels that gs the medicine goes throughrthe tube past the stomach to intestine. thi paticntwvill gnot vomit.

He reports 40 adult cases. and 5 children, in all of which this method was successful.

I'm silre that physicians and pat- ients will be interesied in this safe sure method of ridding the body of an objectionable ‘boarder.’
