C. / TKe Inevitable Happens Britain Pays Again | Another instalment of $90,000,000 Sent It is fai- from "being an easy mailer at times to .thoroughly understand and fully grasp the attitude of .lie financial and industrial interests of .....Eastern Canada towards any real national policy for this Dominion. The positions assumed by them at varying intervals are so inconsistent, and so mutually destructive ihe one o . the ether, tho I. it is impossible to believe they expect to be seriously consiclered. ' . The industrial East -leiYiaml.. a high protective tariff and insists that such protection is imperative for a two-told purpose���������one, in order to secure the "Canadian market to the producer*- oi* Canadian-it]ado goods; and two, to com-' pel United .States'���������manufacturer:-* desirous of-doing business in this Dominion to establish branch factories heiv and employ Canadian labor. They seehi utterly indifferent to the fuel thai, as a result, Canadian purchasers are obliged to pay more-for-their artiel^s than tliese sell"for across the line. As a matter of fact, prices at*.*- fixed just a tri/lo below the United States prices plus the Canadian duty. In other -words. Canadian manufacturers pocket the equivalent of the duty as so much additional profit. ��������� " Having followed this policy Eastern Canada 3s now showing extreme nervousness because of the development of two inevitable results of such a policy. The higher cost of living and ol" taxation thus imposed on the Canadian consumer, as compared with those prevailing in the United States, has, and is, causing thousands of Canadian to emigrate across the,line, thus restricting, that ���������"home'" market winch the Canadian manufacturer considers so all- important. He finds thousands of his best customers moving away. Furthermire, Canadian manufacturers find that the branches established by United States concerns in this Dominion are out-distancing them in the race.', that ever-increasing profits aro flowing across the line into the head coffers of these United States concerns; that, in fact, Canada is maintaining a protective tariff to protect tliese United States branch factories from the competition of their parent factories, and, as a result. Canadian consumers are con tributing unduly large profits to United States financiers and company shareholders. >* " United States investment:- in Canada are reported to have increased from ?-120,000,000 in 3 91-1 to S2,'5i)f>,00t),O0l> in 1924.* It is stated that one-third of all Canada's industries are owned in the United States* one-third of our pro-] test is intended, principally,'as an in Great Britain prepared another $90. 000,000'which was paid on fifteenth of j December in cold cash to the United \ States in payment ot her war debt to that country.

Professor Helen Griffith, of the department ot English, has instructed students to hand in before the oik! of the semester a- crossword puzzle based ou new ! words learned in tho course. The i Insist ^pnBAYBR TABLETS OF ASPIRIN Unless you. see the "Bayer Cross" on tablets*you are not getting the genuine Bayer product proved safe by millions and presented by physicians 24 years for Colds during mines; that a large part of Canada's timber resources', apart from Crown lands, and our water powers are similarly owned, and one-third of all Provincial and municipal bonds held by United States' investors. Tlie l*ast is becoming fearful as to the economic, social and even the- political effect of this "money conquest" of Canada. Yet their pet policy, invited it *fnd, persisted- in, made it inevitable. . Bui not content with this policy of "protecting" outside goods from coming into Canada, there is now developing an. energetic campaign to force the Dominion Government to impose heavy export duties or even a prohibitory embargo on Canadian pulpwood so as to compel United States paper makers to further increase their investments and industries in Canada and thereby still further accei&tuate the "money conquest" of the Dominion, Recently the Saskatchewan Co-operative Elevator Co. announced its decision to erect a large grain elevator at Buffalo through which to handle ox port grain. Immediately a vigorous protest was voiced by Montreal interests, and ihis purely Canadian fariuer3* company was.denounced for encouraging the development of trade through .other--than Canadian channels and Canadian seaports. Yet it is these self-same Montreal interests which are the most bitter opponents of the development of an out-and-out Canadian route, and seaport through the completion of the Hudson's Bay railway, and they are also found in opposition to a reduction and equalization of. freight rates which will enable the grain of these prairie provinces to be moved westerly over an all-Canadian route to the Canadian "seaport of Vancouver, If Western farmers are to be denied access to Hudson's Bay, and if excessive freight rates are to continue to nullify the advantages of the outlet via the Pacific, what remains for them but to take advantage of the most feasible Great Lakes port even though it be in the United States? The West is just as strongly in favor of a national policy for Canada as the East can possibly be; in fact, just a bit more so. Kul.it miist be really a national policy, and not on-.? based'on the assumption that the Canadian nation'is to be found east of the Great "Lakes and that the territory to ihe west thereof is merely a preserve to be exploited for the benefit and profit of the East. Resent meat has been expressed in the .East over a declaration in a recent I'lilted States Government publication that '���������'economically and socially Canada may be considered as a northern extension ol' the United State..." The West likewise resents- the calm assumption that it is nothing but a western appendage of she Dominion. On the contrary, it. is part and parcel of the Canadian nation and must, be treated as such, dication of the value of the course increasing student vocabulary. m Pain Toothache Neuritis ~-������������������ Headache Neuralgia ������������������- Lumbago Rheumatism Accept only * 'Bayer*' package which contains proven directionsr- Handy "Bayer'* boxes of 12 tablets-���������irisobottiea of 24 and 2 00���������Druggists.

FRIDAY, FEB. 27 Conservatives Make Ready Witb announcement that West Kootenay^Conservatives are to have their nominating convention in Nelson early in April, and with many of tbef outward and visible signs at the session at Ottawa indicating the possibility of an early appeal to the people, it begins to look as if the late . spring and early summer may be livened up by the activities of a Dominion election. In the prospective campaign de velopmeiits in the Conservative camp will be watched with anew interest, insofar as the selection of a candidate is concerned. In the past twelve years, at any rate, it was always supposed that K. F. Green or some of the older school of Tories had prior claim to preferment, but with the defeat handed Br. Xtoae, the 1921 rightfully considered successor to Senator Green -and with the stock of It _k������ Oamp bell, another of the old guard's strong men of four years ago, rattier below par, it would look as if some of the Tory talent that in the past has been held in the background may have an innirgs at the impending get together to select a standard bearer. Of this younger generation of Conservatives the impression grows that W. K. Esling, a former Tory M.P.P. for Rossland, is expected to be heard irons and, ussdoisbtediy, at other points in the riding there are other equally ambitious Meigbenites to have them toss their hats into the ring. While it is hardly the province of the Review to pick out opposition candidates, we sincerely trust at !������._..������. ~_~ /"*"_���������������#.-.��������� _._._.:_*_,__*.��������������� ~.nm~.~. Acasciu ias������o vyicaumi icoiuoiivo uauic will be on the blackboard when the delegates start marking ballots at the April convention. In the last federal' fight Creston supplied the Liberals with a candidate who for all round ability outclassed either of his opponets, and with an earlier start would assuredly have been there or thereabouts when the returning officer was declaring the elected choice of that ecntest. Creston Conservatives include in their ranks men with all the essen tial qualifications for successful and agressive campaigning, and the Review trusts that now the field is wide open that this section will submerge all the modesty it bas shown in the past in this respect and at this convention have one of our oitizens in the sunning. In the transfer of C. G. "Bennett to assume the management of the branch of the Canadian Bank of Commerce at Fernie, Crescon loses. a citizen of whom it may he fairly said that his place will be hard to fill. As to his qualifications as a banker there may be some who will question his ability, but that he has been a success in that line, and gives promise of still greater useful n ss. is indicated in his promotion to the rather important branch at Fernie. But it is as a citizen that Mr. Bennett will always be long remem bered, for in a residence of over ten any field of local activity w^here the departing manager has not played a generally conspicuous and success ful part. One of these fields that is apt to be overlooked Is the service rendered by him in patriotic work during ���������theLTOPii;and later as one of the committee in charge of the soldiers* memorial erection. He has 'held every office iu the gift of the local board of trade and seldom missed connecting up for a place on all the board's important oonaHoitteesi ..-.-' In the fall fair he was equally as bard and effective a worker, and no man, has given more time in promoting the varied activities of Christ Church. Iii the preliminary work in connection with incorporating the village of Creston Mr. Bennett was no inconspicuous figure. At com munity work he was just about,100 per cent; efficient���������and as thorough and agreable as he was willing. If one may be permitted the Review would also like to pay a similar tribute to Mrs. Bennett who was ail most as equally active in all departments of community life where the ladies have had opportunity to lend a hand, whilst in social affairs she was equally prominent and welcome. In their departure Creston loses a couple of citizens of whose kind the village has altogether too few. All will wish them the best that's going at Fernie, or wherever else they may be located.

(Part 4��������� (Continued) In Wester a Canada two crops of alfalfa may be cut each.season, but the second crop must not be cut too late as'it Is necessary that the plants attain a fairly good growth after the second cutting in order to catch the show and give it strength to carry itself through the winter. ..- ' Alfalfa hay is no harder to cut and handle than other hays; .in fact, the stiffer stems make it somewhat easier to dry and it is les slikely than the clovers to be damaged in appearance by light- rains or heavy dews. It has been round by analysis that the feeding value bif the hay is greatest at the time when about-the first one-te^nth of the blooms have appeared. The hay becomes woody Quite rapidly as it gets older, and the digestibility of it naturally decreases. - The starting of tillers or new shoots at tlie crown means that the old stems and leaves are no longer growing, and should'be cut off. By cutting late, alter the alfalfa is in full bloom, there is a loss on two crops���������the late cut hay is stemmy because the leaves hare fallen off, and woody because it is too ripe: cutting the new set of shoots delays the nest crop, and allows the weeds to get a start. The leaves are much more easily saved if the hay is cut early, as they do not drop off so readily. When the alfalfa plant is mature the leaves drop off naturally, the same ds from trees in the fall. Late-cutting and careless handling often ieduce the value of the crop one-half. Cut early, just as the new shoots are well started, setting the sickle high so as to avoid cutting the new shoots. The leaves of alfalfa contain nearly four times as much protein as the stems, a ton of dried alfalfa leaves containing as rr-ueh protein as 2,800 pounds of bran; hence every effort should be made to cure the alfalfa in such a vi-ay as to save all the leaves.
