PERIL IN MODERATE DRINKING.

Doctor Ploetz. editor Of the Archiv
fur Rassen-und Gesellschaftsbiologi
declares that ut is Just the average
moderate use Of alcohol which Injuries
the race more than genuine drunken
ness, since there is here relatively no
elimination through sterility or infant
mortality as is the case with the hard
drinker. Many Who imagine them
selves in the category Of the wholly
moderate must actually be placed in a
lower category. From the standpoint
of race hygiene, an absolute end of
the drinking Of alcohol is the most de-
sirable. The greatest need is that
the average moderate use should dis
appear-that is. drunkenness is Sec
ondary."

liquor traffic out Of business. It's the
business man, the railroad man, the

men who have to depend upon some

HIGH PRICES
GOOD CROPS
And Good Demand for Az Farm
Products.

II IL no new experience for settlers
located in a fertile country such A.
Western Canada, where lands may be
bought at very reasonable prices. to
harvest a crop that in one season pays
the entire cost OF their farm. Undoubt-
edly this was the experience u many
farmers during 1915. but one instance
may be quoted. A settler who came
to Canada from the United States
some years ago decided to add tr his
holdings by buying an adjoining quar-
ter section near his home at Warner,
AZ $1,000 an acre. with terms spread
over period Of years. He got the
land into a good state OF cultivation
and last spring put the whole quarter
section in wheat. When the crop was
threshed he found that 1t only took
half the wheat on the farm to nay the
whole purchase price of II: in short
. single years crop paid the cost of
the land, paid all the expenses of op-
GRAFTON and left him a handsome sur
plus as profit. This settler had some
adjoining land. and his whole wheat
crop for the season amounted to
over $4,000 bushels. He is now plan.
ming to obtain some sheep and invest
his profits in live stock which will as
sure him a good living irrespective OF
what the season may happen to be.
Canada's financial position is ex.
cellent. All speculation has been elm.
mated, and trading is done on q cash
basis, with restricted credit.
Detailed figures of Canada's trade
for twelve months ending October 81
show how the war is forcing Canadian
trade into new channels. One Of tho
most extraordinary changes is In com.
merce with the United States. A
couple of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth Of
goods more than she exported. The
balance Of trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
ly disappearing. and the present out
look is that by the end of this year
Canada will have exported to the
United States more than she has i'm.
ported.
The figures for the past four years
are illuminating, They are as fol-
lows:

The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1916-03-23

Four years ago, in 1912. the balance
of trade In favor of the United
States was no less than two hundred
and sixty-seven millions, and this
wear, the balance is reduced to only
thirty-two millions The figures are
extraordinary and reflect the changed
and new conditions in Canada. 1t
looks as If for the first time in nearly
half a century this year Canada will
sell more to the United States than
she will buy from the Americans
