"The prices of our grain in the Min
neapolis and Duluth markets of the
kind required for milling in this coun-
try have risen above an export basis
because of the great demand for such
grain in this country. The same char
acter of grain is raised at the present
time in enormous quantities in the
provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. These prices on the
American side during the past few
years have averaged about 10 cents
per bushel on wheat higher than on
the Canadian side. The prices for
grain on the Canadian side are the
Liverpool prices less cost of transpor-
tation, commission, insurance, etc. 1t
follows that the moment the tariff wall
between the Canadian product will
flow in to this county until the prices
of both are on level with a general
level with the worlds prices.
"Our farming population has for
years patiently paid their assessments
of tariff duties which gave them only
an indirect and somewhat uncertain
benefit, with a hope and promise that
with our growing population, our home
consumption would soon equal our pro-
duction of food products, and that they
should then reap the full benefits of
protection in an enhanced value of all
their products, and that their earnings
for their labor and capital employed
would be placed on a plane of equality
with like earning of labor and capital
employed in the city; that they could
then surround themselves with the
comforts, conveniences and opportu-
mites of the city life. But just as these
hopes and promises are about to be
realized and this assured and perma-
nent prosperity is almost within their
grasp the hope is dashed to the earth
and the promise is broken by allowing
their only great competitor free ac-
cess to those home markets developed
and purchased by their sacrifices.

READ THE LABEL.

DR.. Charles Caspari, Jr., State Food
and Drug Commissioner, has issued a
notice to butchers and dSdealers in meat
directing specifically the conditions
under which preservatives may be
used in food products. DIR. Caspari
also gives warning that on and after
August IL any violations of the law in
this regard will be rigidly prosecuted.
1t is most important that the gen
eral public cooperate with the Health
Department in this matter. At this
season of the year, especially, great
care must be exercised to insure the
purity of food Of all kinds. House
keepers should read labels on the arti-
cles they buy, and not be fooled by
fancy names inscribed upon them. The
Health Department will not recognize
these names, and any goods to be
accepted by law must contain not more
than a specified amount of preserva-
tives, the real names of which must
appear on the label. In the case of
meat, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate
and sulphur dioXide are the preserva-
tives most frequently used.
In the use of canned goods similar
precautions should be taken. Goods
which have the most brilliant color in
the can are not. by any means, necess-
arily the purest, and in this case, too,
abels on the cans should be carefully
needed. The power of the system to
resist disease is mt it's lowest ebb dur
ing the summer months, and disease
germs are at their most active stage.
The crusade which is now being wag
ed in Baltimore against the house-fy
is a movement in the direction of inn
provement in the public health and
should be carried into all parts of the
country. 1t is claimed that the fly is
a transmitter of some of the most fa-
tai Diseases typhoid fever, summer
complaints of children, and, probably
of infantile paralysis.
1t is not necessary, therefore, to
even set adulterated food to suffer
the in effects which may come from
it. In the markets and stores food is
frequently left lying about unprotect-
ed from the flies which swarm over it
and then carry disease germs to help
less children. Milk and food of all de-
scriptions should never be left around
uncovered and with a small amount of
money invested in "sticky" fiy-paper
and fly traps, and perhaps wire
killer" the country may in the course
of a short time, be comparatively
free of the pest of the house.fiy.
The improvement in the health of the
community, if these precautions are
carefully carried out, will be more
than ample compensation for any trou-
ble such observation may entail
