lalmost disastrous conditions of last ‘J year were still fresh in memory. It l was then publicly admitted that | the prosperity of the Province de- pended upon the farmers receiving full remuneration for their produce. and that the only way in which this could be secured would be by accurate knowledge of market conditions and by judicious feeding of the market so as to avoid congestion at points of delivery. Naturally, the provin- cial Department of Agriculture was expected to have taken the initia- tive in this matter, as the govern- ments of our sister Provinces have done. We are now in the midst of the shipping season, however, and the project of a marketing board is no further advanced. The producer. if he is in need oi warning, encour- agement or advice. will again be at the mercy of interested parties: he will be exposed, as in other years, to the dangers of sudden panic or unwarranted optimism, and his suc- cess or failure will remain largely e matter of chance. Having gone so far gon the road to achievement we should not be content with anything

but the most up-to-date methods of disposing of what is admittedly the finest product in the potato markets of the continent.

The secret of speeding plant development consists in administer- ing combination doses of the seven elements of plant food, in the exact quantity and quality required by each different form of vegetable growth. Theseelements combined in capsules, are dissolved in soil or water where the plants are to grow. The chem-

ical combination contains nitrogen, phosphorous. magnesia. iron, potas-

sium, sulphur and calcium.

Each variety of tree, cereal, or, vegetable, or flowering plant de- l munds a different combination o! some or all of these seven elements.“ Reduced to groups, about a. score of, different combination would suffice.’ The best medium in which to use

the "plant pill,” we are told, is wa-I, ter. but it has been successfully ap-l plied in soil. The entire scheme may 1 seem complicated and fanciful to the

average farmer, but Dr. W. F. Ger-

What faith can be placed in any treaty, pledge or promise made by any government or authority that has already abolished the Sabbath, the marriage bond, and which pro- claims from day to day that there is no God above us? What fellowship or friendly relationship of any sort can Britons or Canadians hc-ld with Bolshevism or Communism?

Tourist visitors left in New Bruns- wick $15,000,000 in 192a. and $18,000,- 000 during 1923 up to September 30, according to statistics compiled by the Canadian Pacific Railway and the N. B.
