The Farmer and High Prices.

To the Editor of The Times You
have had your SAY" editorially IN
favor OF the proposed reciprocity
treaty between the United States and
Canada, and you have published long
accounts of what our honored presi-
dent says in support of the same
treaty. Are you fair enough to print
a protest from one of your farmer con-
stituents?
think we farmers sympathize with
the city jewellers more than you real
ize, for we also buy large percent
age of our food. Tea and coffee,
sugar and -four, meat and fish; In fact,
all our food, save perhaps few eggs
and some potatoes, we buy at the
same price which you pay. And yet
you city jewellers blame us for the
high price of food. We sell our fat
cattle at &C or sc pound, and then
turn around and pay l5c TO zoe
pound for the beef. We sell our corn
at less than lc pound and pay l5c
a pound for corn flakes. We sell cur
chickens at &c or 10c per pound ana
as soon as the butcher has removed
their feathers, he sells the same fowls
at 1Sc to zoe per pound. We sell our
butter and eggs to the merchant and
in a few minutes he passes them over
the counter at an advance or from ~
to 40 per cent Who Is to blame for
the high prices OF food? Is the farm
err also to blame for the high price
Of fuel and of clothing, OF furniture
and OF farm machinery?
Whatever reduction In the price OF
food this treaty with Canada brings
about will come out Of the farmers
pocket. We farmers will be up against
a competition which will make our
products a drug in the market.
II closer trade relations with Can
ada are desirable, why not give Us
free trade instead OF this one-sided
piece of political chicanery aimed 10
impoverish the farmers OF the states
along the Canadian border?
Our great and good President Tart
assures the farmer that this treaty
will be a good thing for him. We
agree. 1t will cure his habit OF spend
ing money.
