To the casual onlooker at one of these big gatherings���������so big that it is next to impossible to secure auditoriums large enough to accommodate the delegates, not to mention visitors���������they are too big to permit of that careful consideration and intelligent grasp of the important questions which come up for decision and action. At times the conventions appear to become unwieldy, almost unmanageable, and somewhat confused as to the issue b -fore them because of a multiplicity of motions, amendments and amendments to the amendment. No doubt a delegated convention restricted to two or three hundred men and women, selected from districts, could transact business more expeditiously. But smaller, conventions wouid result in loss of some of the most apparent and undoubted advantages of these big gatherings, The big convention is a veritable dynamo for the development of enthusiasm in behalf of. those particular reforms to the accomplishment of which the organized Partners have set their hands These large gatherings provide ample opportunity Cor hundreds of men and women to attend who otherwise would Making Strenuous Efforts to Recap-, ture Former Monopoly. Sir Aifred Mond, member of the Zionist organization's economic council for Palestine, has returned from Palestine,/and, according to the London Times, stated he was impressed most favorably with that- country's possibilities, *��������� He warned British traders that the Germans were making strenuous efforts to recapture their former monopoly of its markets, and urged the building ot strong trade' coVnections now in view of the future importance of commerce with Palestine, which he described as being in* the process of active development. <-������?������ III stick to qu&iiisf? f ? ...

"~Year after year resolutions from individual locals calling for radical and even drastic action are considered by the conventions, but when facts are given and new light thrown on thc subject of which the Local was not aware, the big convention invariably rejects the resolution, fully or adopts it in a very much modified form. The ultra-radicals are respectfully listened to. thcir -point of view considered, and then the good judgment and sane common sense of the vast majority render a decision, such a safe remedy fot winter ills It's a tiny germ that sets up the irritation that makes colds so disagreeable. Colds die quickly if Catarrhozone is used, simply because the vapor of Catarrhozone. instantly destroys the germ that keeps the cold alive. Every breath you *%aw through the inhaler fills the whole breathing apparatus with pure piney essences that istops colds at their very beginning. You experience a pleasant sensation of relief at once. Soreness, congestion and irritation leave the nose arid throat, the head is cleared, and every trace of cold or catarrh is relieved. Catarrhozone is so sure, so pleasant. These annual conventions, therefore, have a steadying influence. They clear the atmosphere of much fog which gathers in local spots throughout the year. This.-indeed, is one of the most valuable features of these big annual get-together meetings. And the big conventions are-fair and open-minded. "Equity" is the motto of the organized farmers of the- West. Emphasis is laid upon it at every convention. And the delegates strive earnestly to live up to it. Anything unfair or underhand is immediat-sly scorned by these big gatherings. Personalities arc strictly out of order. The organized farmers are demanding justice for themselves in the carrying on of the primary and basic industry of the Dominion, they recognize the right of everybody else to just treatment, too. They are not asking for special privileges for themselves, and feel there is no injustice in fighting against the continuance of such privileges now enjoyed by others.- Complete equity all round is their motto and also their fighting ground. The conventions in all three Provinces this year had two outstanding questions before them���������the much talked of "wheat pool" and the proposal that the farmers' organizations as such should enter the Provincial political arena in their several Provinces. The idea of a "wheat pool" was enthu- slastica'ly endorsed, because the wheat growers have become, firmly convinced that the methods which have so long prevailed under -which their chief product becomes the plaything of market speculators must cease. They have too much at stake to allow such methods to continue indefinitely. Two avenues of reform seem to present themselves���������one, action by the Federal Government; two, co-operative action by the farmers themselves. Failing the first, the farmers are determined to evolve some plan whorebv the second may be brought into practical operation. But no hasty, ill-advised steps were taken. There was general appreciation of the magnitude of thc task before them���������the biggest ever attempted by organized farmers. The huge financial and transportation problems involved were fully and frankly recognized, but there was a grim determination in evidence .to find a solution to these, and the Executives were authorized to proceed diligently with thc work of finding the solution. It was also made clear that tn this task the farmers would havc thc active sympathy and support of the V/cstern Provincial Governments. As (o the advisability of entering Provincial politics, opinions differed. In some Provinces thc majority view favored such action; in others the majority opinion was that such action was not necessary, that the time wa3 not ripe for it, and that to force it would b-*- ill-advised and a mistake. But so far as Federal politics arc concerned, there waa absolutely unanimity��������� thc farmers are going to fight as a body in the next Dominion election. that you can't afford to do without it.

On our homeward journey we passed through the Touchwood Hills, our ponies were heavily ioaded and frequent spells at the steep hills were in order. At one of these we pulled up quite close to some Indian tepees., 1 noted an Indian scanning ��������� both mc and my team very closely, shading his. -eyes with his hands, and jumping up on a waggon box he took one more look, then diving into his tepee, he came running out with a new rabbit skin robewhjch he threw on my sleigh.

On proposing to my wife that I could take her and the children to Prince Albert, also our furs and that 1 would go cither scouting*, or on the transport, she absolutely re.fused to consider any separation, and said we must all stay together no matter what happened. On scouting round the place a day or Iwo later, 1 found a body of some forty Indians, evidently from Nut Lake, had camped for a night a mile Or so south of my house, and then struck southwest in the direction of Batoche.

He would not, he said, fight against his misguided countrymen, so had a hiding place in the Pasquia Hills with some friendly Indians. He stayed to dinner and the fare was poor enough, ���������simply bannock, potatoes and Wack tea,'no meat or butter. With h".i\ natural French politeness he made things very pleasant and was very much take n with my three fair haired little girls. He thought my move was a wise one, and though his large assortment of furs were safely cached at present, he might eventually send them down the Saskatchewan River. 1 went out with him as he saddled up and after thanking me for my hospitality, handed .me whar he called a trifle for Madame in a cotton sack, which proved to be some ten pounds of very choice baedh. which was a noble'gift considering conditions. Poor Batoche, or Ka-Kak, so styled by the Indians (meaning raven, as he had very black hair) made a good deal of money fur trading, but took to drinking heavily, which no doubt shortened his days. Leaving our pictures hanging on the walls and quite a number of otheT household goods, including seed potatoes, off we started. The order' of travel' was myself on horseback well armed with a fourteen shot Winchester and a heavy six shooter, my wife driving a tcam>of ponies in a backboard with two kiddies, and Our girl with thc oxen and waggon and two older children, behind which came three head of stock (all we owned at that time). 1 would ride ahead for a mile or two and then circle the party We had the usual trouble in crossing some five creeks, which delayed us so that it was well on in the evening when wo made Carrot River.

Their arms were evidently single barrel muzzle loaders, and after a moment's thought I rode to intercept them. On meeting them 1 gave the usual Crce salutation, "Wn-chea, Wa-chea," to which they cheerfully replied (the mother tongue of nearly all the French Metis was Cree). We nil got off ouir horses, took our fire bugs and settled down (or a sniokc and a talk.
