A CONTRAST

The measure of the local Liberal organs interest in the results of the Imperial Conference may be, judged from the comemptible ef-i fusion which graced its editorial columns yesterday. The contrast between its 81211115119836 that of (he Canadian Prime Minister in moving for the approval of the conference agreements _in Parlia- men: or: Oct. 12 ls indeed striking. This is what .\ir. Bennett said:

"It is no: my purpose to de- ride the efforts c: past Canadian

gs mitts :0 cure that ~ ie of r. trade which. I may claim

‘pcd to bring about.

do I wish to 1d suggest that government, ghout. the long . represents has ' supported, must ' ably no the only policies on ch a mutually beneficial plan =' Empire trade could be devel- oped. I raiher choose, at‘ this anxious time in our country's his- tory, to return thanks that the Peoples o! the Empire, conscious of the benefits which must flow from closer economic association, were able. through self-denial and patience and a capacity to see the others point of view, to inaugurate an imperial tariff policy from which every one o! them must obtain real and last- ing advantage.

“I 85k m? honourable friends on the other side of the house Y9 accept these agreements in ‘ma! sDirit. I ask them before they prejudice the success of them by criticism induced by the consciousness that we have done What they failed to do, to r9- member that these agreemeritg are for the good of Canada, (or the good of the Empire, and ma; considerations at this time p cularly should transcend the interest of party."

EXPERT OPINION

Expert opinion on the new tarifl preferences granted by Great Brit- ain to Canada on dairy and other agricultural products has been ob. ‘B31991 by the Ottawa Journal, and this opinion bears out the prediction 0f greatly increased markets for the Canadian producer.

According to Mr. c. B‘. mehwei], Dominion Livestock Cornmssioner, Canada's export of bacon and hams to the United Kingdom during m2 will total from 40 to 50 million Pounds In weight. This will repre- sent more than twice the amount 91'" Shipped there in any previous year. But the new agreement will lilow free entry of about 280 mil- 11071 pounds Weight per yen for five years, or from six to seven

times the aggregate of the present,

BROOK FARM AGAIN

At sooke, on Vancouver Island, it 's announced, a new sociallstic ool-

‘ony is to be established under the

auspices of the Canadian Young Peopls Society oi Alberta and Sas- katchewan. 1h theflelds aridln the community hails of the colony it is mtended that those tired in body ‘and spirit may find relief from the Zcompetitive strugglrs which oom- itnenoialism has imposed on man- kind. It is hoped, too, that, at the oolonu scope will be given for the develemnerit of communal and pa... 1c interests. '

The experiment at Sooke recalls to the Vancouver Province other experiments of the kind, particularly the most famous of all, Brook Ffrtn established in 1M1 about, as far from Boston as Booke is from Vic- toria. Brook Farm was an out- growth of New England transcend- eritalism, and, while it, lasted, had the Dfltmmlge of Emerson, Theo- dore ‘Parker, Amos Bronson Alcott and Margaret Fuller. George Ripley was the leader, and among the members were Nathaniel Hawthorne and Charles A. Dana, later founder of the New York Sun and the most widely-known and influential jour- nalist in the United States. Haw- thorne tells something of the ex- periment in his Blithedale Ro- mance. Doria secured his first jour- nalistic experience on the colony paper, the Harbinger. The objects of the colony were somewhat the the colony at

l

sums as those o.‘

Sooke: l "To more effectually promote the great purposes 0f human cui- ture: to establish the external re- lations of life on a basis oi wia- dom and purity; to apply the prin- ciples o! justice and love to our social organization in accordance with the laws of Divine Provid- ence; to substitute a system of brotherly oo-operatiou for one of selfish competition: to secure for our children and for those who may bo entrusted to our care the benefits of the highest phys‘cal, intefectual and moral educafon, which in the present state of human knowledge, the resources at our command will permit; to institute an attractive, efficient and productive system of 1n- dustry; to prevent the exercise of worldly anxiety by the competent supply of our necessa y wants: to diminish the desire of excessive accumulafon bv making the acquisition of indlfiiual property subservient to upright and dia- interested uses; to guarantee to each other the means of physical support and of spiritual progress, and thus to impart a greater free- dom, truthfulness, reflnemerit and moral dignity to our mode of life."

The aims were laudable enough, too laudable, perhaps, for the human iclay w which they were applied. ‘For a few years the plan seemed Ito work, and the seventy or eighty ‘scholarly men and women who oon- stituted the colony earned their ikeep by manual work on the farm and at mealtimes and in the even- ing discussed philosophy, lterature and an. As inner-son put it, Brook ‘Farm, was "a perpetual picnic, a French Revolution in small, an age iof reason in a patty-pan." Prom the first, the principal troubles of the colony were financial, and lo get rid o: these B reoTlifiFatlon was undertaken by the father of iMr. Hearst's Arthur Brabanc on princples suggested by the French Socialist, Fourier.

NOTES BY TIIE WAY

We are once more adjusting our- selves to the new conditions. An 0t- tawa despatch states that "Canada's trade is pointing Empirewards w an ever increasing extent." s1 ghtly over half of the Dominica's exporm in August went to the Eltnpire countries as compared with only 33.6 per cent a year ago, while the- purebasu of the Dominion from within the Empire have increased from 3.5 per cent w 30.2 per cent. This tendency to increase trade with‘: the Empire will be given a great impetus when the Imperial Conference agreements come into effect

To the question "“'her¢’s Busin- ess?" we have a ready answer: "look to your Empire markets." We our". selves have in tact already discov-

in towns and cities throughout the British Comriicaivrealth. We know well that a welcome awaits the Cahadlan trader who vsits his Etn- pire markets. We know furthcrrnore. that those Canadians who have per- sonally visited these markets have secured prof table businms in good volume. To those who ask “Where's Business?" We repeat: “Go to Em pire countries first. A ready we'eome , awaits your arrival. Don't let this, opportunity exLst without really try"; ffig to do something about it. Be-i come a merchant adventurer in the highest sense of the word and go yourself personally to trade with Great Britain and our sster Dom-

Commerce of Nation.

Communism means ‘Community Interests.’ The educated, intelligent, thrifty and ambitious people of fine characterstics must live on the same lower material level as the

ings. In Russia the few in control have been the most. outstanding agitators against capital and yet the government that they are carrying on is operating the greatest capit- alistic enterprise on the face of the earth. 'I‘l-iey have merged all ihe capital of Russia into one great government monopoly. The popula- tion must work for ths monopoly in return for which they are doled out a bare subsistence on short ra- tions. Thus this great Russian cav- italistic. i

Sir Thomas Lipton was one of Great Britons most successful bus- iness men. In his recently publish- ed autobiography he writes of hav- ing heard Gladstone remark: “Advertising is to business what steam is to machinery-the sole pro- pelling power. Nothing except the mint can make money without ad- vertislrig." Lipton adopted this as his guiding principle. Others who feel that commercial success in full measure eludes them might give thought to the principle.

Greed ls but jtlmale ambition gone mad. 1n the individual the eit- treme of every good quality seem to reach a bad one; love may be~ come lust, peace may become sloth and the pleasures of the palate gluttony, unless guarded against. Ia it possible that the rneu who have amassed huge fortunes out of which they have subseq itiy established vast beneyolent and philanthropic foundations were actuated by greed in one process and generosity in the other?

In the year ending June 30, I921, our exports of agricultural products, including commodities manufactur- ed from such products, to the Unit- ed States dmounted to $174,170,553. Then came successive hoists of the United States tariff against Canada with the result that our exports o1’ agricultural products and commod- ities lo that country declined to $47,320,635 in 1930; to $22,308.297 1n 1931, and to $8,849,404 for the year ending June 30 1932.

The Rev. Benjamin Spence, a Canadian, has a perfect rght to make "dry" speeches in Canada or else- where, as long as he can find aud- iences to listen to him. He can make a life work oi the subject and he can draw a salary from either for» eign or domestic assoclatons. At the, same time, we cannot refrain from~ saying that Mr. Spence does his own ' country an injustice when, speaking abroad, he paints such a. horrible picture of conditions in Canada. While admittrig. as vs‘. have done, Mr. Spences perfect lit to speak on this subject and . invade the_ United States for thl: urpose-just as Mr. “Pussyfoolfl ihnson , an years ago-we do hop. that in fut- ure, the Toronto man will be more. charitable when he speaks of h‘:

the correct thing to "boost" rather! than to “knock" ones own land when speaking of it elsewhere. The Canad an people are eminently safe”

In the remaining oases the scia- tica is usually due to a slight dis- placement of the large hip bone from the last wedge or triangular shaped bone of the spinal column.

is a sprain'or strain of the ankle ,or other joint. Usually strips of ad~ hesive tape are applied beginning about 2 inches below the point of the hip bone at one side and going acress the back to the same point on the other side.

I have spoken before of a. brace ‘applied by Dr. J. E. Goidthwait, Boston, and his associates with a leather pad for the abdomen, and a brace for the small of back Joined by leather straps, the lowest strap of which comes directly across the affected joints, at the same level as the adhesive tape mentioned above.

The web is cut the necessary length to span the hips, and the patient slips it on under the clothing and draws it so that ‘it makes gentle, garteriike, pres- sure upon the hip bones at a point .three or four inches below the top |of the hip bones. The overlapping of one end is marked upon the other. 1t is removed and small saf- ety pins are put in to hold it at the desired size. The patient then steps into it and draws it up to the proper position. In some cases it m5)‘ be necessarY to apply thin straps or thin rubber tubing around the legs to hold it in the proper place. '

For early and moderately severe cases of strain of this joint, this gshould be a simple and effective device.
