The social amenities of life have éalways appealed strongly to Gover- rnor Hearts; It was typical oi him to ' ay, with a touch oi whimsical hu- flllOl‘, that the one drawback to living; in Government House is that the country people will not call.

Conference Propaganda

The reading publio, suggests a western exchange, may rightly be‘ warned not to take too much stock in the press reports about the Naval Conference that will come irom Lon- don. during the next iew weeks. Ae- cording to reports, there are about S00 newspaper correspondents in London assembled from all parts of the world, which works out to about ten correspondents per delegate. In-_ esmuch as the conierence will do all its actual work "in committee," that is, in private, and will be particu- larly desirous that the details oi the inevitable diiierences oi opinion be kept secret in the interests of an ul-

“Government by Acreage" is dis- cussed in Plain ‘ralkvbyi Orville Welsh, his contention being-that‘ the representation of the people oi the United States, both in C0 and

inthe State Legislatures is as un-

iair and oorruptas was that oi Eng- land in the days of the "rotten bor- oilghs" before the passage of the Re- iormBill. Itwasinthedaysoi George the Third that the Colonies rebelled and at that time it was poe- sible ior less than 100 men to elect a majority of the l-Iouse oi Commons.

“It ll the Misiortune oi A " ,"

writes w. Welsh, "that the rotten J11

borough system still flourished in England at the time our State. and Federal Constitutions were (armed. Since than in Britain as well as in

most other countries electoral in-I

equalities have.in thevmain been abolished, but in the United States they linger in their very worst iorm." There was no manhood suiirage in those old days, and in only one-third oi the early States was population taken ass basis for any legislative apportionment.

In Massachusetts each town (or

And how is it in the Electoral Col- lege which rinally elects the Presl- dent? How are the State Electors chosen? The Constitution says each state shall appoint a number oi El- ectors equal to the whole number oi Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in Congress. That gives New York 45 electors, or one ior.230,'182 people. Nevada has three electors, or one ior every 25,802.

It is encouraging to note, in the secretary's report oi the yotato Growers’ Association, that the sav- ing efiected on acid phosphate by the reduction oi $1.50 a ton ior this ier-

Under the present system New York City hasqonlyzz Senoitprsyout

at Albany, so“ "the up-state tail wags the New York City dog." And that is the way it is all over the nation, accordingvto Mi‘. Welsh, owing to the iact that acres count ior more than manhood or womanhood at the polls. United States cities now contain much more than half the population oi the Republic, but owing to not being fairly represented, they are out- voted by the rurahdistricts all the time. "

A news item, published elsewhere in The Guardian, tells oi the impend- ing visit next August oi a. party oi some one hundred and ility members to the Pennsylvania Potato Growers‘ Association to Prince Edward Island to inspect methods oi potato cultiva- tion. This is a distinct compliment_ to the reputation Prince Edward Isl- | and has achieved in the quality pro- duction oi potatoes.

lion. w. M. Lea, Minister oi Agri- culture, has been invited to attend, as a guest o! the ._'._,, the annual Maritime men's dinner at Toronto on Feb. 4th. The dinner will coincide with the meetings oi national breeders’ associations in the Ontario capital. Mr. Lea will endeavor‘ to at- tend. The Ministers presence at

gatherings oi this kind is good pub- .

Moreover Mr. Welsh aiiirms that lt wasthe men oi acres who gave the majority which ten years ago brought in the Prohibition Amendment to the Constitution. It is true as we believe, that the cities as a rule were largely opposed to Prohibition, and the ma- jority in the country districts much more generally in its iavor. As the cities incr the number of their people much more rapidly than the rural districts, the future o! Prohibi- tion seems precarious. '

The . Railway Commissioners haw raised the .price oi haulage oi wes- tern coal to Ontario to $8.23 per ton. which Premier Ferguson regards as prohibitive. This will diminish em- ployment in the Alberta mines, in- volve the importation oi American coal and send a mint oi Canadian dollars acroesthe border to enrich the coal barons over there. It will, however please Uncle Sam, which now as from the beginninz ll ind hi" been e prime objective for the Lib- eral powers that be in Ottawa.

When you read that one physician advises against the use oi raw irui and vegetables, bran and other ‘rough’ ioods, whilst ‘L eir daily use, you may wonder

which one is right.

As a matte oi iact, considering, that most individuals get very little| - exercise, the use oi these rough ioods would be of help, as they give bulk to ithe iood and this enables the intes- tinetograsportaksholdoitheicod better as it moves along. '

Also its roughness irritates or stim- ulates the intestinal walls to tract and this helps iilter iood through to the waiting blood and lymph vessels in the small intestine; and lathe large intestine where the wastes oi the iood are accumulated, these ‘rough’ or ‘cellulose’ foods stimulate its walls and so the wastes are car- ried along, and thus removed from tho body.

However where there exists an ir- ritation oi any part oi the canal,- swmflllh. BT80 0i‘ small intestine- these rough ioods can cause trouble and should not be eaten.

Further, there are some individuals in whom these ioods cause an un. natural fermentation. It would seem m“ they are Just too strong to: their intestinal tract, and abdomln. al pain, headache, and backache often iollow the use o! tl.i.se ioods.

Thus turnips or cabbage, good ‘W811 ioods, give distress, and beans oi all kinds do likewise.

The use of raw fruits in their nag. ural skins or coverings is 5,150 me cause o! much ierrnentation, gas formation, and pain,

What is the thought?

That a little rye, brown, or whole wheat bread, and a little raw mm; m- even raw vegetables could be safely added W the dolly diet oi most oi us, but should not iorm any 13mg pm of the day's food supply,

Where the use of any oi these ioods is known to Rive distress there is mthlns t0 be gained by the continu- ed "Se 01 that Particular iood, as “w” “e "h" mush ioods that may not createyfiis ‘filing-hung. . ;
