FOTTA WAYS RESPONSE 'I‘he announcement elsewhere in todays Guardian of the magnificent grant received by this Province for unemployment relief from the Do- minion treasury will occasion gen- eral satisfaction. The umotuit of the sum is, we believe, proportion- s§_ly,larger than the Province was efititled to receive, and was granted s! a direct result of the strong case riade out for our unemployed by E-temler Machfiliau, Hon. John A. siaenonald, ALP. m. w. Chester s. ficllure, M.P., and l-lon. G. Shelton Qlarp, Minister of Public Works, on tfaeir recent Vifilt Y0 011m"!- TAn excellent feature of the grant, £11m. totals $113050, is that it will provide useful employment over l cpnsiderable period to those throughout the Province who have most felt the pinch of the depres- sion. While more fortunately situ- ited than most places, Prince Ed- we Island could not hops m es- cape altogether the effect of world oconomic conditions, and the prob- lem of unemployment relici during v the coming xvinter months would be acute, despite all the efforts of our provincial and illlllliCipRi authorities, but for the financial assistance now obtained from the Dominion treas- "1- _ Tho members of the delegation responsible for presenting the Pro- vince! need in this respect are to be heartily congratulated on the luicess of their efforts. Commendation is also due to the Prime Minister and his colleagues In. the Dominion Government for responding so generously at s time when many pressing demands are being made on the treasury, and when so many economies have been necessitated in coping with the fin- ancial problems of the country. SPEAKING OF BACON ,_.__ "It is becoming increasingly evi- dent that the wish was father to the thought wizh Hon.

We quote the foregoing state- ment as typical of the arguments (P) used by Liberal newspapers and politicians to obtain what our contemporary calls s "landslide" in the recent federal try-elections in Now Brunswick, Quebec and Su- katohewan. This cheering reference to Prermer Bennett recalls the fact that he not only "brought home the bacon" from the London wheat con- ference but succeeded in opening the British market for Canadian bacon to such an extent that the Halifax the put few months. Our farmer! are much more interested in unbias- ed information of this kind than in cheap jibes sgoinst the man through whose initiative the British prefer- ence on their bacon and other pro- ducts was obtained. CANNING INDUSTRY One of the interesting develop- ments in tho Maritime; during the past few years, says the Maritime Merchant, has been the canning of native fruits and vegetables. The growth of the canning industry has resulted on the one hand in the ne- cessity of importing less of these goods from outside sources. On the other hand it has contributed to an increase in our export trade. Al- most all the trade in canned beans over Maritime counters is now in Maritime brands, and Maritime can- ned apples are beginning to get a foothold in the Britlshvmnnket. As suggested in n ivccnt informative address by m. lemming at the Rotary Club there are magnificent opportunities in this Province Ior the ' of food product! which would command a wide pire mar- ket. The time is opportune for the establishment of such enterprise in many branches of our fishery and agricultural industries. THE REAL SURPRISE What is peculiarly interesting in Monday's by-election results, says the independent Sydney Post-Rec- ord, ls that tho Government's beat showing was in the Province of Quo- bcc, when l. 87-year-old Libcrul Ad- ministration directs Provinciul sf- fairs. "One ventures the opinion that this ‘ uncmnly is pro- cisely what might be expected. Pop- ular antagonism toward Gov-rn- merits is for the time-being a ivcrid- wide epidemic. Those who carry the responsibilities of administering public. affairs under present day conditions, are engaged in a task few can discharge efficiently, lhd none to the satisfaction of the peo- ple. In New Brunswick and Sask- atchewan the Conservatives have a monopoly of powcr, Provincial as well as Federal, and are thcr..orc the only marks in light for the slings and arrows of popular dis- content. In Quebec s Liberal Gov- ernment, carrying heavy administra- tive rsspqnsiblllties and not particu- larly popular at any Mme, drew a largo proportion of the electoral fire which the Conservatives might oth- erwise have received, and the vote in Yamuka was almost an oven break. The large support given the Government candidate inthat con- stituency, only known once in over ,. bontcmpo rcfihronlcle, leading organ of the new I-rl-iberal Government in l-‘ors Biotin, E has been inspired to make the fol- ‘2 lowing editorial comment: BACON ‘IO BRITAIN According to the Dominion Bureau of Statist cs there has been a decided rise in the export of meats from Canada in Sop- tembcr this your over Septem- ber, 1032; last year the value exported was $455,969 as against $1,257,115 for September of this fear. This is the largest export ‘of meats since October. 1929. the 'following June the smoot-l-law- ley tariff in the United States came into efiect shutting the gates. The present increase is in the export of bacon, which last September was $314,078 as against $l,053.584 for soptcmbcr “r” this ycnr; of this $1,028,221 went. to the British market. The market of the United Kingdom ' takes an immense quantity of bacon and it is encouraging to see that Canada. is capturing ' some of this trade. - ~=u;-avnvvcrrotlfuNHIHFHWIOIHHFNHI Neither Brunswick produces enough bacon for its own requirements.

Our local (10.5 mi ill service to its agricultural nazlcr"; by suppres- Mslng facts of such importance to them as the phenomenal increase in Canadian bacon exports during Nova Scotia nor New 40 years to elect a conservative, was perhaps the greatest surprise of the day." EDITORIAL NOTES According to the Dominion Bu- res. of statistics, the industrialists engaged in manufacturing products were more active during September than in any month since August, 1929. The index of food production based on ten factors was l04.5 in September compared with 100.1 in the preceding “. According to Lincoln's familiar epigram, "u nation cannot exist half slave and half free." Can an economic society exist half planned and half free? This, says the Win. nipeg Free Press, would be ona ---y of asking whether Mr. Roosevelt can succeed. The United States today is not a Socialist economy, but neither is it ~ capitalistic economy wherein people are free, subject only to restraint on monopolies and on exploitation of labor, to produce and to sell for profit. After six months of Mr. Roosevelt's experi- menting, the United ttates -' »-'s in a. strange twilight :~ ‘dway between economic "1. :;:.d eco- nomic planning.

When Tennyson lived at hush- water in the Isle of Wight, he hwd two sisters of the poet Shelley for his neighbors. In the late ‘We and. early 60's no one qute know who the Misses Bhiley of Freshwater were. It is doubtful whether Ten- nyson ever met them socially. One day, at a vlcarage party. the con- versation turned to ‘the subject of poetry. Said thc elder Miss Bhel- ley; "I once had a brother who wrote-immoral poetry, but I um thankful to say I never read any of it." And for the first time Iresh- water knrw who the Misses Shelley were. Perhaps some of the guests at the tee. party thought the rela- tionship slightly shocking. ln 1925 Germany become s nig- natory to the Locsmo Security ‘Treaties, and imnrdiutely thereaf- ter made application for member- ship in the League of Nations, and in i926 was du'y admitted into that body. Taken tcgethcr, Germany's subscription to the Locarno Pact and her membership in the league bound her, along with Belgium, France, Great Britan and Italy, to guarantee the lnviolabflty of ‘na- tional boundaries as fixed by the Versailles Treaty; to refrain from attacks upon or wars against each other; to settle, by peaceful means, disputes that. may arise as to boun- durifs or other matters; and when the League of Nations’ Council substantiates a claim that the above provisions have been violat- ed by any signatory, other signa- tories are obliged by Article IV to "come immediately to the assist- ance of the power against whom the act complained of is directed." But Miss Charlotte Whitton, Ex- ecutive Director oi the Canadian Council on Child and Family Wel- fare, who has unusual facilities for knovring the situation, declares that the depression has not killed private charity. If anything, pri- vate contributions have greatly in- creased, but so overwhelming is the need for public provson, merely of food, fut-l, clothing and shelter, that the percentage of private funds spent in the areviation of human need has become a very small percentage of the total.

THAN THE TEETH “Glass eyes do not give you oye- sight but porcelain teeth will chew about u well u your own teeth." Dr. Chas. A. Hahn. 1n New Or- leans Medical and Surgical Joiu-nsl, makes the above statement in an endeavor to warn us that. while the teeth have an important use in keeping up the health of tho body, bad teeth must not be allowed to interfere with or actually destroy the eyesight. It. is now known that fifty differ- ent affections of tho cyo can be traced to direct extension of poison from the teeth; by involvement of teeth and eyes from some common cause; ;by fatigue or reflex action 1n which tho tceth are mostly to blame; or by infection in tho blood stream coming directly from bud teeth. Now we know that the teeth are very important; the front teeth are not needed u much u when man had to tear his food, but the grind- ers or molar teeth are greatly need- ed to chew the food. By this chew- ing process the food gets finely div- ided so that the alkaline digestive juice of the mouth-the sslvia-can mix well with it, change some of the starch into sugar, and have each bite or morsel of food so covered with this alkaline juice that the stomach has to make plcntyof mid juice to overcome it. All of’ which greatly helps digestion. Btu when these teeth become in- fected the poisons may bc- carried to all parts of the body, interfering with our mental and physical pro- grass. One of the parts affected is that delicate organ the eye, so that poor vision results and even the eyesight may bo lost. With so much poison in tho lys- tem the liver cannot filter it out, and n11 the jobs done by the llver— _ma.klng bile, filtering out poisons, helping to color the blood, storing sugar-my be affected. ‘lhc thought then is that while tho teeth are important for their appearance and their use, the words of Dr. Bahn should be our guide, namely that a glass eye has no vis- ion, but porcelain teeth can chew your food for-you. Don't try to save your teeth at the expense of your eyes. I T0 HIS SUOCEBSOB At first, perhaps, you'll either think or say, I wonder why he did this thing this W87.

I will bring those reminiscences to a close, with a few remarks in reference to my view of the min- ing situsti u ft stands today in tho region cf tho Klondike and other dish-fem, not that it is por- haps worth anything, the govern- ment, no doubt, in the post. hav- ing men of marked ability in the Geological lino, make n study of that particular locality. Neverthe- less, a Geologist ml»! be able to define the proper formation of material that would be favorable for om to prospect in, but that is no guarantee that ho k going to find it there. Surface indications are a poor criterion w g0 by in placer mining at least. There l; no divining rod, or ouch conbrivmco invented that has proved o. success that I have heard of. If they had, they could soon relieve the short- age of gold in the world today. The only gold finding machine, outside of a mam drill (and that isn't very portable) is the mun with a pick and Ihovcl and a gold pun, and with him it is c. matter of hunt for it. The only enthusiastic nrosrwctlns done. was when the camp was first struck. Bomo of the beat Dmipectors the country had at that time, were Australians who, not being able to get certain pro- tection they required while proo- pccting their ground, loft. and wdnt down river, onto tho American side. They getting the‘ benefit of their knowledge, Fairbanks, the Idilircd Nome, etc, developing. Take the Klondike mining dis- trict. which first stnrwd from the discovery on Bonanza Creek, the other outlying creeks being n later addition, since then outside the radius of this district, nothing of importance has been found, mainly I think, on account of tho difficulty oncotmtercd in transporting sup- plies, m o. favorable distance back inland from the Yukon River. Would it not be quih reasonable to think that this Whfto Channel may possibly have come from quits c. distance away at one time, and must have been of sindlar size to the Yukon River, and running in the same direction. No quart: for- mation being in evidence in the district of sufficient quantity to lead one to think it originated there, it must therefore have come from somewhere else, and wher- ever that mass of quarts fl, the Comstock Lode would be a fies bits in comparison. In fact, on the opposite side of the Yukon River, along the mm- mit there can be traced on ancient channel of large volumn as well, the also of the rocks there being the evidence. And as far as pros- pecting is concerned, there has been practically nothing dons. As a narrative, like a work of fiction, has to come to an end some timmlwillbringthlsonctoa conclusion, by giving an account of the career and and of the King of the Klondike, Alex. McDonald. At the height of his prosperity, Mc- Donald was considered cs s very lucky and shrewd individual, and of course, cs with successful men in general, as long as his money lasted. ho was the whole thing. As it is natural for royalty m assoc- iate with their own set, he had w take a trip to England, and cf course ho was wined and dined, and I guess got the rc- oeption of a king all right, and as no king should lack a consort, to uphold the custom, he married a lady, who accompanied him home t0 the Klondike as his bride. As soon as he got back, his trouble be- gan. He gotflnto a law suit over n claim on Eldorado, which was de- cided against him in Ottawa. Tak- ing it. to the Privy Council in Eng- land. he won: but it cost him two hundred and fifty thousand. With the able help of his wife. the bal. ance of his money soon passed like a dream, and to start again at the foot of the ladder at his age was too much for him. He book a weak turn and died. while cutting wood t0 put a fire in the stove to cook dinner while working on Squaw Creek, and thus ended the career of the King of the Klondike.

There has not been enough trading for anyone to be damaged by price cutting. Your correspondent suggests that o price fixing arrangement exists between two dealers and it is gen- erally known that three or four of the larger dealers are working a combination to fix bot-h buying and selling prices primarily for their own profit and self preservation. Buch combinations are usually congidel-ed to be illegal as a. rmtraint of trade and seldom work out for the good of those involved or of the farmers But wo are not interested in any petty squabbling between the mem- bers of this combination at present. What we would like to know ls who is responsible for repeatedly and pg];- lillfllll: telling the Farmers through the press not to sell potatoes, and what justifies this advice. The local press tells us that Cau- ada has a much larger crop of pota- toes than last year, that New Bruns- wick alone has an increase against last season almost equal to the whole Island crop of last season, and still, following price declines from $1.00 to .30c., we are advised not to sell, although the press tells us that .300. is .10c. higher than last year when the Dominion-wide crop wag very much smaller, the Cuban out- let was larger and other trade con. ditions about the same.
