" But, if following a decisive defeat in a general election, the Government did. not resign the Governor-General can take cognizance of that defeat and take responsibility for dismissing his Ministers and calling upon the Leader of the Opposition to form a new Administration. In this event the new Ministry must obtain a vote of confidence from Parliament otherwise the usefulness of the Governor-General is past. However, in the election last month, while the Government failed to secure a majority, so, too, did the Opposition. Consequently the Government would be justified in continuing in office and asking Parliament for a vote of confidence., relying on a combination of Liberals and Progressives to reach such a vote. If, on the other hand, the Government resigns and Mr. Meighen is asked to form a Government, it is quite evident he could not command a majority in the House of Commons as at present constituted, and another election would become immediately imperative. - Mr. King is, however, confronted with a secontf. problem. If he decides to await a-verdict from Parliament, he must in view of his personal jdefeat and the defeat of one-half of his ministers, reconstruct his cabinet. ; This involves ^a series of by-elections. In the present indecisive state of public opinion it is doubtful if these ministers could be elected. Furthermore, for the King Government,; to continue in office any length of time under present conditions would be to perpetuate the unsatlsfactory situation in the House of Commons and Government which Mr. King himself in advising dissolution of Parliament, urged as one outstanding reason why an election at this time was necessary, nanieiy, to provide a Government with a clear mandate and a working majority. "Mr. King further announced that ii" tlie election, did not result in providing such a clear working majority he would again appeal to the country. Disturbing and expensive though it would be, the logic of the situation points to another '-lection without loss of time. Whether Mr. King remains in office, re-constructs his cabinet, and calls that election, or whether he resigns anil Mr. Meighen-forms a cabinet and then goes to the country, is a matter for Mr. King land his advisers to decide, and possibly before this article ls published a decision will have been made. But as in any event it Is quite evident that the holding of another election cannot long be deferred���������and in the intt-re.s t.s of strong, stable government in Canada should r.ot be deferred ���������then th" sooner it id held and the whole, situation-clarified, the better for Canada. 11 zjxjj���������.,"���������-���������,r.z.mJ.j -.���������,'���������..��������� * .

Then when the system becomes rundown from any cause, the disease again ���������gets the upper hand and it all has to "be done over. ;v v S uff erers from _ rheuma tisrh who have found their condition unrelieved or actually growing worse while using other remedies, would do well to try Dr. Williams* "Pink pills. The tonic treatment with this medicine y has proved in thousands of cases ihat it builds up the" blood to a point that enables it te':- cast out the rheumatic poisons through the regular channels, the bowels, kidneys and - the skin. When; this is done rheumatism is banished, and as long as the blood is kept pure and rich tho patient will be immune .from attack. This Is fully proved by the case of Mr. Samuel Zinck, Uppar Blandford, N.S., who says:���������"For a long time I was a great sufferer from rheumatism whieh settled in my hip and down by leg to the, knee. At times the pain was so great that I could not walk. I tried liniments and medicines but without getting more than-mere temporary relief. Then one day a friend called who said that he had heen afflicted with this trouble Which was banished by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and urged me to try them. I did as advised and afiter using a few boxes there was no doubt they were helping me. . Not only (was the rheumatism disappearing,Jbut iny general health was improving," I continued the pills until I had taken about a dozen boxes when erery trace of the trouble had disappeared, and I have not felt a twinge of it since. I may add that my wife used these pills for a run-down condition with equally good results." You can got these; pills from any medicine-dealers or by.mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co-, Brockville.

Practice of Weighing the Milk Recommended to Dairymen /������ -practice that is generally followed and advocated at the illustration stations in Easleri* Quebec, conducted under : the " Dominion- experimental farms branch is ihat of weighing each cow's niilk. There are .too many/ cows, says the supervisor in-his annual ���������reporl, that do not produce suf- 'fieient to pay for their feed. By weighing tliey milk these animals can of (course be identified and eradicated. The average of thirteen herds is given as ^,245 pounds, which Ss better than The average production of cows in Canada, and" Indicates considerable -improvement brought about hy the methods pursued. "Realizing ��������� that "more niilk could' be produced- by more intelligent feeding and breeding, states the supervisor, Mr. J., II. Tremblay, B.S.A., five, operators have been iiy duced to purchase pure-bred sires ,wtth dairy record quallfica tions. Other operators are expected to follow suit in the near future. In the production of the thirteen herds quoted' there is the wide margin of over 43000 pounds in the average per cow, the best average of a herd comprising eleven cows being" 7,967 pounds and the lowest average of one consisting of 13 cows being 3,156 pounds. The highest producing- tows in a herd of Holsteins was 11,049 lbs.. In a hard of Ayrshiifes 9,259 lbs., and in a herd of grade Shorthorns 10,003 lbs. The best in a herd of grades standing at the bottom of the list Is 3,891 lbs. It is hardly necessary to say that the keeping of these records is an incentive to both better feeding and'-better breeding.

Records For Mineral . Production Will Be Eclipsed in 1925 All yearly records for mineral production both from ths standpoint of quantity and value, will be eclipsed in 1925, according lo a summary of mining operations - for the first eight months of the present year, issued by the BjCD. minister of mines. It is estimated that the monetary value of the mineral .'production for the -first eight months of 1925~is approximately $41,000,000- - This indicates that the total final production for the year 1925 will approximate at least $60,- 000,000, an Increase of ?11^295,396, or 23.10 per cent, over the total for 1924, hitherto a record for the province. three provinces occupied as farm land. ���������Undoubtedly the best of the land open for -boniesteading has been taken iip. . No .less than 72,131,000^~acres have been granted to settlers and others in* the form of homesteads, land sales, bounty graats," half-breed serip, etc. Grants to.railways and to the Hudson's Bay Company have absorbed 38,432,- 000 acres of the surveyed area, while 27:,422,000 acres have been set aside for forestry purposes. Indian reserves, school lands, parks, grazing leases, water-covered land, and road allowances aecount for 35,954,000 acres, leaving a total of 25.957.000 acres not allocated at the commencement of 1he present year. Studied solely with an eye to the surveyed lands still held by tho crown, the western land situation might not look very' promising for further large settlement. There are, however, two other important factors to take into account. First, the ^surveyed area can -and, In time^ will be, somewhat enlarged when the railway network is extended into areas which are stilL too rehiate to warrant surveys, let alone settlement. Secondly, there are the ' privately- owned" unoccupied lands within the present surveyed areas���������that is, the lands held for sale by individuals and | by the railways and the Hudson's^Bay j Company. It is estimated that there are about 18,000^000 acres of such lands. When it is borne-in mind that these are largely-select lands, where- Shipping Wheat Via Vancouver Shipments -ot wheat from Vancouver during the first two months ended September 30. 1925, were 1.157,904" bushels, and receipts S93.330. For the whole of last year approximately 25.- 000,000 bushels of wheat ""passed through "this" port, and It Is anticipated that the wheat movement through Vancouver this year will eq.ua!, if not exceed, that oC-192-1. 3a Lua_ oum . cf c-CI iBuua E^ia.j uciu D,v "the public are the "marginal" lands ln every-sense,-one can realize how closely the future progress -of western settlement Is tied .up not^only to public policies with respect to crown lands but to the marketing and. occupation of privately-owned lands. Public lands no longer dominate the situation with respect to western settlement. Quite aside from the figures for the acreage which have been surveyed ami disposed - of in d liferent forms, rough estimates, the best tliatvban be made with present information,.: indicate that _ there is a total of about 167,000.000 acres of land In the three prairie provinces physically suitable tor'..grazing, or for agriculture. The area at present occupied as farm lands is rather less than 90.000.000 acres. Allowing liberally for the acreage now being used for grazing purposes, still leaves It amply evident that the west has'a long road io travel before Its agricultural areas j*re; anything like fully developed 7 To clIo only one more figure, it is Worthy^ of noi lee'that Dr..U.

CHAPTER XVI.���������Continued j It was late in August when Baree saw the first of his kind outside of Kazan and Gray Wolf. During the ���������-summer Pierrot allowed his dogs to run at large on a small island in tlie centre of a lake two or three miles away, and twice-a week he netted fish for them. On one of these trips Ne- i peese accompanied him and took Baree with her. Pierrot Carried his long caribou-gut whip. He expected a fight. But there was none. Baree joined the pack in tlieir^rush for fish, and ate with them. This pleased Pierrot more than ever. "He will make a great sledge-dog," he chuckled. "It is best to leave him for a week with the -pack, ma Nepeese." Reluctantly isepeese gave her consent. While- the dogs were still at their fish, they .started homeward. Their canoe had stolen well out before Baree discovered the trick they had played on him. Instantly he leaped into the water and swam after them���������\ and the Willow helped him into the j canoe.

"The Willow was tying a knot in Baree's bahlche, and she rose slowly to her feet and looked.at Pierrot. Her eyes were big and dark and steady. "I am hot_going, mon pere!"
