CHEAP FEEDS AND FARM REHABILITATION

Sun-satisfactory as were Mr. Walter Shaw's comments on the need of cheap animal feeds for our farmers, when he dlgresed In hls letter of last. week Into the question of farm Néllbblllbﬂl/IOII, "ae lost his balance and fell from his otherwise welI-esfabilshed pinnacle. This Is ivhaf he said:

“This (rehabilitation) problem will never be solved by cash ad- vances and artlflclal methods. but. Improvements In farm condftlmts may be brought about. by the low- ezing of feed costs whIch permits the producer a slight margln of profit on his livestock enterprise." A loglcal conclusion must based upon a full complement. of premises. and such certaInIy Is not the case wItli Mr. Shaw's con- cluslon. What. benefit to a farmer Is cheap feed If he has not the wherewithal to purchase It or the animals to which to feed It? Or again If Iils buildings are In a. coildltlon unfIt. to house even the meanest scrub? Or stlll worse II his knowledge of feed requirements and of many other farming meth- ods are those of hIs great. greats? Cheap feed is of course a neces- sity to our farmers, just as are fertlle soil, pure water, modern Im- plements, livestock that wIIl pro- duce aI. a profit and u. whole lot. of other things, not omitting a knowledge of how to plan and how to carry out. a plan on modern lines.

Probably the farmers who ven- titre Into Mr. Shaw's offlce are not. of the class paInIaed In the a- bove picture and so are many that I see and converse with. But there are too many others that. Ollf‘ cannot but. nity and wonder haw they are able to keep theIr fatnilies illlve. much less In uood IlPfIllh. Of ivliat broflt. are cheap fifflflS to these men?

But. Mr. Show Is out of lIne attain when he speaks of "cash ad- vances." Tliab Is one of the non est conditions of all rehabilita- tion schemes. ‘Prue. money has to be advanced, but. the spendlng "if it. Is lcft to those who will Insure It greatest nomble return.

Shameful Neglect.

Halifax Chronicle (Liberal)

Dlacovery of Pilot. James Wade and his passenger. James A. Noonan forced down on a. lake In Hallfax county, came Just. when hopes were fast fading for the safety of the two men. The plane, It was feared had carried both the men to their deaths. They came close enough bo death, In all conscience, and the I cident whfch almost. became a tragedy emphaslzes the shameful neglect, which the aut-horftles have shown towards flying facllltles In this province.

The two men escaped death. but theIr experience must have brought considerable discomfort to both of them as well as the great- ast. distress and anxiety to friends and relatives. Thelr expel-fence must do what perslstent. agltatlon, so far, has faIIed to nccompllsh. It must counpel central authority to establish the same standards of air safety In Nova. Scotla as obtaln In other provinces. The blame lies on Ottawa.

Must we waft untIl people are killed, before our aIr traIls are properly protected?

From Moncton w Vammiver, Ca.- nada’: nIr lanes are equipped with modem navlgatlon devices to ald fliers. Radlo beacons guide the ﬂiers on thelr courses, day and nIght. two-way radlo commiinlcatlorn make It posslbfe at‘. all times for the pilot to know what. weather condftlons Ile ahead. Only down by the At.- lantlc. beyond the termlnus of the Trans Canada Air Llnes servlcc. are we Iacklng In these devices wliIch contribute so much to the safety of modern air travel. Ottawa, doubtless. wIIl attempt. to evade responsibility by saying that T.C.A. does not serve Nova Scotfa. The planes flying between Hfallfax and Moncton belong to a private company operating it "feed- er" servlce. ‘That. Is no excuse. TC. A. advertlses coast-to-coast service. That Is what It. should provide. If a feeder servlce of smaller aircraft Is necessary at present, that ser- vice should be operated bv T.C A. But, most Important, the same safety standards malntalned for T.C.A_ on Its regular routes, should imply to connecting services In the Marltlme provinces. TCA. cannot advertise safe coast-to-coast. alr travel If Its connectlng llnks lack modern protectlon.

This provlne" has been shamefully neglected. Representatlons have acme Io Ottawa for a year and t: half, arcinz the Installation of nrober directional equipment. UntII It Is Installed and “feeder” planes carry complementary radIo. Ottawa wI‘I remain gitIlty of wilful negll- gence.

12 IMAGINATION

There Is n0 realm like the philos- ophy of religion to give the enmus- IB-allf} llnﬂglllillllﬂll IYGG I811], A 1811\- ous preacher once said, “II, Is greater to mink a wand, man to be a world." To think about. the world and how to inlpfjove it. for the belie- nt. of all mankind thrills any soul with ﬁre WflICh kinules his imagin- atloll. The architect. first sees the vision of the bllllulllg he expects l0 design; then he makes the blue prints, which he bands L0 the bulld- ers, whose work makes his dream come true. We axe all building tem- ples whlclt we first saw Ill a VISIOII. and from the dream we draw I] pal- tern, and from the pattern we make the ﬁnLsherI bliIIdInt-z. This temple of the soul is made without. hands. but Is none the less real.

This world of ours wlll be remade by soul;, who have already built a beautiful temple within the realm of the Imagination. All wars damage every nation on enrfli. Can you see a. warles world which wI1I beneﬁt- every soul on earth? Can you vlsn- allze what the doctor; are working for: a world wlthout a deadly germ In It? Do you see the Ideal of tlie reformer? A sober world. What dId the ropliet. see? A11 the world re- turn ng to the worship of God. An endless stream of people once more entering the house of God to recelve forgiveness; and an Irlsplratlon for

Then thls world wIll become a habitation for the saints. The evIl Imn Inatlons of man must. be replac- ed y endless tlioilgllts of beauty, goodness and truth. ‘ITII: Is lIfe In all Its abundance. The Master said. "I am the Good Shepherd, whn came to give you the abundant lIfe." Make the tomnle wfthln pure, Ideal, and BEAUTIFUL.

Campaigns And Parlia menl

(Toronto Saturday Night) There Is a curious passage In Mr. King's speech durlng the flrst and last day of the sixth sesslon of the eighteenth Parliament of CB.- nada, which perhaps sheds more light. upon the contents of the Prlme Minister's mlntI than other parts of It. which have been much more generally dlscussed, 'I'hIs was his depreciation of "a. polltlcal cam- palgn In this Parllament." while war Is going on at the front. He drew a careful distinction between u pollllcal campaign conducted on the hustlngs and one conducted In Parliament. People the world over, he sold, would be retmrcd to make allowwnce for ex rcme statements made outslde of Parliament In a pu-bllc campaign. ‘They can un- derstand political opponents speak- Ing there In a different way than “there mqy have the responslblttv which rests upon members In fills House.’

“This. It. seems to us, Is no more than saying that. once an election campaign Is In the offing the mem- bers cannot be trust-cd to observe the responsibility which rests upon them-Altar. they wIIl beblwe them- selves In the Hottse with the same latitude as If they were on hustlngs. And not only does tlrs seem to us to be a grave slur upon the character of the members, bu.

that the responsfblllty of Parlia- ment, Is largely maI-ntalned by tilt’. facl, that n, possesses machinery. rules of order and rights °l Dill/l’
