cHARLToN's SPEECH IN CANADA.
AN Parliament.
FARMERS WANT A MARKET
Government Charged by Conservative
Member With Appealing for Vote
Of American Settlers.

Ottowa,, Ont, April 26.-Additional
significance is given to John Charl-
toms reciprocity speech in the budget
debate from the fact that he delivered
it at the express request OF the pre-
mier. Sir Wilfrid Laurier asked Mr..
Charlton to follow the high protec-
ZIONIST speech of Mr.. Tarte, the *
minister Of public works, and to op-
pose Mr.. Tarte's anti-American policy
with reciprocity arguments. This fact
was stated in the house OF commons
yesterday by Mr.. Clancy who, after
the leader of the opposition, is the
chief conservative financial critic, and
who replied to Mr.. Charlton. Mr..
Clancy made the statement on the
authority OF MI. Charlton himself.
Mr.. Clancy declared that this &C.
ton commits the government to the
policy of reciprocity. He vigorously
denounced the government for adopt
ing that policy and said the conserva-
tives would once more have to fight
the issue Of unrestricted reciprocity
and commercial union. The govern
ment was appealing for the votes OF
the new American settlers in the west.
The west would ultimately govern
Canada, and the government, instead
of building up a united Canada, was
seeking to make an American west.
It was encouraging the American set
tiers to trade with the United States.
They would be only too ready to do
so, ,instead OF buying from eastern
Canadian manufacturers. He de-
nounced this as unpatriotic and made
an appeal to loyal Canadians to re-
sist such a policy.
Mr.. Clancy was followed by Mr..
Davis, liberal member for S%askatche-
wan, who declared he was in favor OF
reciprocity, and that the people OF the
Canadian. west generally were also,
regardless of their origin.
American millers, he said, want the
Canadian hard wheat. Reciprocity
would give the farmers of the Cana
dian west a better price for their
Wheat and so give them more money
with which to purchase goods from
the eastern Canadian manufacturers.
Reciprocity, ne maintained, raj in
the interest OF both east and west
and was not unpatriotic.

Diamond Formation.

diamonds have been formed by crystal
lization. from silicatc magmas it &C.
Cured to Hasslinger that they might
be prepared artificially in this way. A
mixture corresponding to the analysis
of a diamond bearing breccia, with
carbon added, was subjected to intense
heat. When the mass had cooled, abso-
lutely colorless and transparent octa-
hedrons were found having al average
diameter Of .O5 millimeters. They
scratched ruby and were combustible
when heated with oxygen. The results
appear to strengthen the theory that
natural diamonds have been formed by
capitalization from silicates.

nc q Improving the soil and re-

,ops O Improving the soil and re-
ling permanent prosperity.
JInvestigations furnish some inter-
ting suggestions regarding the rela-
TO-, of live stock farming to the use
" numerical fertilizers. In the first
,,lo-e the use of commercial .fertiliz-
% % has developed to large proportions
:. he older sections of the Atlantic
aoe5oard and is gradually extending
ward. But in it's westward course
- AS plainly swerved toward the
.oo4-1 in which stock farming is unim-
mi and away from the live stock
rocions. Doubtless the course followed
is nsrtly due to differences in soil, but
.be,a can be no doubt that live stock
forn,ing is a very important factor.
patience has already been made to
tbo act that during the last twenty
Ave years, owing to the cheaper pro-
auction of beef cattle in the West IN
connection with the perfection of ma
chinory for handling grain and hay
crons Wayne County, Ohio, has lost
tbe Equivalent of 12,0OV head of cattle
(baH its live stock and increased it's
annual fertilizer bill by $4,000, and
that these changed conditions are
tvnical of those in the State generally
According to Director Thorne, during
the twenty years preceding this change
the average yield of wheat in Wayne
County increased from about IA bush
els to about 161a bushels per acre;
while during the last twenty-five years
the average yield has been at stand
still. with a tendency in later years to
decrease.
The very opposite of this condition
prevails in parts of Wisconsin, New
York and Vermont, and other regions
where the dairy industry has been
greatly developed in the last quarter
century. 1t is generally conceded that
where the major part of the farm is
devoted to the production of forage
crops that are consumed on the farm,
the soil is growing richer; while in
those regions where such crops are
not grown and where commercial fer
tilizers are practically the sole reli-
ance, the productivity of the soil has
been greatly lessened. 1t will be no.
ticed that in Vermont the development
of the dairy industry has had consid-
cradle influence in lessening the use
of commercial fertilizers.
