With such a training, he says, if they cannot make a success on ‘he land they are sure of getting an appointment as a govern- ment expert on farming. oe eye Why didn’t the deputy min- ister go on to say that there were scores of other such ap- pointments to be had in Brit- ish Columbia? Why, anybody who can learn to keep his mouth shut can get a job as a fire warden, road boss or gov- erninent inspector, providing he will agree to ignore his duties and spend all his time in getting votes for his party. * . * But must all our immigrants take a college course before they begin to till the soil? It to make Canada what it is to- day had Sir Wilfrid Laurier adopted that theory. No sen- sible man discounts the value of education, but the better advice for a good many Eng- lish boys would have been to advise them to place them- selves for a time in the service of some good practical farmer and learn at the same time both theory and practice, as well as the development of brawn, which is after all the most important asset.

That would be too mueh like disinterested business, and William Manson ‘is too much of a politician to do that. He cannot forget that it was his own defective judg- ment that first decided on Woodworth Lake, and what difference if the city gets a defective power system on its hands so long as his judgment is not interfered with? Then the Wark’s Channel power is a good club to hold over the - heads of the people, and who would throw away such a good club with a couple of possible elections in the air? This paper British Columbia is badly in need of a change of govern- ment. This is not because every member of the Conser- vative party is fmherently bad. It is rather because the perity of the past number years has made possible the corruption of the party in power. Anglo-Saxon countries are noted for the short lives of their governments. Conse- pros- of quently they are noted for the|- best govérnments in the world, In British Columbia we have a party which has been rolling in wealth for number of years without any opposition to check their mad _ extrava- gances. With this wealth they have purchased power on every hand. A complete turn- over would have a wholsome effect on all concerned. a POE PIAA IAAAAAAIAADAA AAD AAAAADAIAAAAAAAAIA IAAI AAA AAA INAS Daughter of the Earl Spencer, ests in Canada and will take their honeymoon. held of where a The convention, recently packers’ in Chieago, warns a beef famine.

Partly as a result of this propaganda, the demand for these viands is now so great that the consumers are disturbed over the possibility of underpro- duction, which is already threat- ened. Eight hundred shops in France sell only chevaline horse meat cuts. In Paris alone there are butchered every year over 60,000 and many donkeys and in comparison to 100,000 beef. Germany consumes nearly 150,000 horses annually and 100,000 goats, compared with the consumption of 3,500,- 600 adult cattle, 2,000,000 pork- ers, and 2,000,000 ‘Kid and goat are commonly found on Spanish and Portuguese tables. horses, mules, head of sheep.

The public charities of the French capital dispense daily 1,600 pounds of horse flesh in the free hospitals and asylums.
