. ---<o>—-—- TRADE CONDITIONS

Advocates of free trade and near free trade are wasting their own time and that of others in try- ing to persuade no that the home market is entirely governed by the foreign market. in these Marl- tlme provinces and indeed in all of Canada, with the exception of the wheat growing sections of the

‘prairie provinces, we dfsmipd‘ upon mited farming for our living. This mixed farming may be classified so chiefly, dairy products, poultry. hogs, grain and potatoes. We are told that the British market sets the price for ourbacon, butter and cheese. Does it‘! Compare the prices paid in England for bacon with-those paid in Canada and you will ‘find that every pound of Can- adinn bacon and hams sold in the. British market is sold at a lower price‘ than that realirod-rﬂ- Canada. Quotations to justify _t yo statement may be f‘ W

‘tended to the advantage of the

home producer or manufacturer. It1

gave him protection in his home market. And it stimulated honle manufacturing which gives em- ployment to labor thus adding to the population and increasing the consumption of farm products at or near the place of production.

Thus a properly adjusted cus- toms tariff tlmulatos manufac- ing industry increases population gives employment to labor and pro- vides a growing home market for everything the farmer produces. A customs duty is, of course, a tax. it increases the cost of imported goods to the consumer. But by stimulating home industry in many lines it dlmishes the necessity of importing and by so much it is n tax that constantly tends to reduce itself. Moreover, being an indir- ect tax, it is less felt than is a dir- ect tax to be paid at a set time. The tax on imported goods is only paid by the consumer when he buys imported goods. if he pays it, he pays at the time chosen by him- self; lf he chooses not w buy im- ported goods he will not have any. customs to pay.

The value of the Canadian home market to Canadian farmers was never so great as it Io today. Never before were-our farmers so completely shut ollt ofytbe ‘United States market as theyare today. Never was the purchasing power of European countries so low-as it
