BUTLER, A. M., M. D. Laughter is undoubtedly one of Nature's greatest tonics. It brings the disordered faculties and functions into harmony, It lubricates \"the mental bearings, and prevents the friction which monotonous, ejecting business engenders. It Is a divine gift bestowed upon us as a life preserver, a health promoter, a Joy generator, a success maker. Life with tho average man is too serious at best. Never lose an opportunity for relaxation from tha ptre.s and strain of your business or profession. Every draught cf laughter, like an alr-cushiijn, eases you over the Jolts and the hard places on life's hi-hway. It tends to bring every abnormal condition back to the normal. It is a panacea for heartaches, for life's bruises. It is a life prolongsr. \"Laughter is a positive sweet- ner of life, but, like good coffee, It must be v/ell cleared of the grounds cf ill will. There is nothing on earjh more delight- if ful to listen to than witty k laughter, and nothing more tor- t menting than the silly and \\ causeless cachination of fools. ������������������ Between a laugh and a giggle \\ there is the width of the horizon.\" Commend me to a good laugh���������������������������net to a little snickering laugh, but one- that will sound right through the house.

What amount of reason is there for the fcat- now heard expressed on every side that the crop outlook in this district is anything but encouraging? In fact, men who arc in a position to know, make no bones about saying that unless rains come within the next few weeks' there will be an absolute crop failure, with dire''heed staring us iii the face before an,othcr\" harvest comes round. Undoubtedly there is cause for much of this fear, but wc believe thc picture has been overdrawn in the minds of most people. The spring bas been (hy���������������������������very dry���������������������������with frosty nights and! bright days, and a light wind to lick up thc mois-1 ture. As a result, all growth has been slow and, backward, and those who planted early had their fields''csiught by the frost and havc had to replant, some-twice. Here and there especially favorea spots have not suffered to any extent, cither from the frosts or the dry spell, but on thc low lands, every grower has.suffered loss. In addition to losses sustained by damage from frosts and lack\" of rain, truck farmers complain bitterly of the devastation by cut worms. Certain ' celery\"growers havc also lost every plant. Row upon row of celery that looked fine a week or two ago has disappeared as if by magic, the young plants having bcen killed by thc celery-fly. ' Hay men tell us there will nol be half of timothy and clover, and the first cut of alfalfa is also sure to be light. , But what the hay crop lacks in quantity will bc made up in quality, and if the late June rains come thc second crop of alfalfa will make up for loss in thc first cut. Looked al from a local viewpoint thc situation is not so serious, for hght crops will certainly make easier a solution of the labor problem, but from a.larger point of view, the situation is really serious, farmers tell us, and they believe everyone should face conditions, not despairingly or with tuidu'e alarm, but sanely and with a determination,even the losses aire men's organization is concerned. It was through his efforts that the embargo asked for by Canadian manufacturers was not placed upon Canadian wool. This \"embargo would have placed our sheepmen at the mercy of the manufacturers' organization. It would have meant a drop of 10 cents a pound on the price of wool and would have deprived the wool growers of access to the open market /and the open market price. Only 40 per cent of the Canadian woo! is what is known as short wool, the only grade our manufacturers are equipped to make up into cloth. The balance of 60 per cent is what is classed as long wool. This has to be 'shipped to American manufacturers. Our Canadian manufacturers heretofore have had an embargo placed on Canadian wool just t as the wool cut was coming in, and the embargo enabled them to buy up all the wool grown in Canada at-10 cents a-pound less thaii the open market price. Then, in the fall of the year, after they had taken out the \"short wool\" for home manufacture, 'the' manufacturers' organization would ask lhal the embargo on Canadian wool bc lifted and, their request being granted, they would shoot across thc line thc 60 per cent ���������������������������\"long wool\"���������������������������cut of Canada and reap thc fancy |\"open market\" price. | All this used to happen before thc wool growers' organization became Dominion-wide. It is not going lo hupen again. Our wool growers arc wide awake. They fully realize their power and the Dominion government has set the price of wool as high as it was on thc open market a year ago. When the wool growers were at the mercy of thc manufacturers' organization a year or more ago, and thc price of wool was 60 to 70 cents a pound on thc American market, our wool men iwerc paid 35 and 40 cts a pound by buyers repre- ,'scnting thc wool manufacturers' association.

The purposes of this registration arc manifold.

Broadly, the British Labor, Party has had two objectives: First, to shorten the war by negotiation, and, second, to organize a labor government for Great Britain.
