CANADA DID we'll.
Honors WorthiIy Won at Interna-
tionaI Live Stock Show.
Friendly Rivalry at Chicago Splendid.
Iy Revealed the Possibilities of
Our Northern Neighbor.

Further evidence, if any We're needed,
of the friendly relations between Can
ada and the United States might
have been found by a visit to the In
ternational Live Stock Show recently
held at the Chicago Stock Yards.
There the Canadian and American
were to be found side by side in the
friendliest competition, the loser will
ingly admitting defeat when the other
fellow carried off the blue ribbon.
Some of the Choicest and best of
Canadian stock was there, and much
of it returned loaded down with rib
bons denoting firsts, championships
that indicate pedigree, breeding and
worth, and cups and trophies that
were won in hard and severe contests.
The hay and grain classes were
points of great interest, and here
Canada did well, securing many
prizes.
Twenty-Five first prizes were listed
In the oats class; Canada carried
away % of them. A sample of oats
from the Province of Alberta, weigh
ing 4S pounds to the bushel, was the
heaviest sample in the show. 1t was
Alberta oats that took the sweep
stakes, the exhibitor in this case, j.
w. Lucas, of Cayley, repeating what
he did last year.
In wheat there were % first prizes
to be awarded; Canada got % of
them
The greatest interest was shown
when the horse classes were called.
Here also Canada stood well to the
front. The Percheron entries showed
that Canada breeders were popular
and successful exhibitors. Champion
ships were awarded to number, and
first prizes We're common. The same
may be said of Clydesdales. This
breed stood out prominently, there
were many entries, and this Old-time
popular breed had an unusual num-
Der of admirers. This was especially
so in "Wee Donalds' case. Here was
Saskatchewan horse, his owner TAX
ing back to Canada the grand cham
pionship. Not only has he done it this
| year, but last year as well-two years
in something never before
done at the Live Stock show. In
| Clydesdales Canada won places in
| every class in which entries were
| made.
The same story could be repeated in
sheep and hogs. honors being heaped
upon honors on Canadian entries.
Particularly important is the fact that
first prize for alfalfa seed was
awarded for seed grown at Brooks,
Alberta, in competition with 43 en-
tries. Alfalfa growing in Western
Canada has been increasing by leaps
and bounds, and this victory will give
it-and the dairy industry, which is
always linked with it-a further i'm
petus.
A visit to the Canadian government
exhibit of grains, grasses, vegetables
fruits, minerals and other products
of the Dominion to the north, revealed
in tabloid form what the great coun-
try to the north could do. A great
interest was aroused in this exhibit
and it was greatly admired by visitors
to the Live Stock show. Representa-
tives of the government We're on hand

Corn Is Still King.

Neutrality-suspicious. is still king of
American farm products in point OF
money value. The census bureau, in a
statement, placed corn at the head OF
twenty leading crops in 1919 with a
value of S3,507,797, ,102 out of an ag-
gregate value for the whole list Of
about $13,75O,0O0. Next were: Hay
and forage, $2.523, 100000; cotton and
cotton seed, 50, ,355, 100000; wheat, $2,-

"cod Be with Ye.n

AS matter of fact we English
speaking folk have word to say at
parting which means lot. "Good-by"
is a contraction of "God be with ye,"
but not one person in a million thinks
of this when using 1t. While we may
not object to our butcher having divine
guidance, the wish is certainly not
In our mind when we say to him over

The taxpayer is next of kin to the
treasury. AT any rate he Is the first
person notified when the treasury
needs money, and he always has to dig
down into his jeans for whatever is
needed. Taxpaying, even more than
charity, begins at home. The boys
best friend is his mother. but the tax
payers only friend is himself. The
only thing that can be done for him is
to disclose as wildly as possible how
much his government is costing and
let him decide what he will do about
1t. 1t all comes down to this: The
more money the government spends
through defective organization or eX-
or save.
So much for the cost of the national
business we support. We are all mi
nority stockholders. The concern has
no other source of revenue than our
contributions. 1t doesn't make any
money. In times like these, when al
most everybody feels that he gets too
little for what he sells and has to pay
too much for what he buys, it seems
to me the least we can do is to take
an active and intelligent interest in
this great common enterprise of ours
and make sure that 1t is well organ
lied; that it doesn't waste or spend
extravagantly that the employees are
paid an adequate wage and have
proper working conditions; that their
morale is kept high and their enthu-
siasm in our interest unabated; in fine,
that as business it shall be conduct
ed as efficiently and economically and
on as modern scientific principles as
any large private business.
Is it?
That is question you must answer
for yourself after I have acquainted
you with the actual situation and con-
dition.

THE BURDEN OF TAXES

IHE BURDEN OF TAXES
Before the war the government OF
the United States spent about one bill
lion dollars a year for all purposes,
including interest on the public debt.
In the fiscal year ending June 80, 1920.
the first full fiscal year after fighting
stopped, the government spent in
round figures six billion four hundred
million dollars. In the fiscal year 1921.
that is, up to June 80, 1921, it spent
So, lis, ,927, ,6S9.3O, and in the fiscal year
of 1922, which will end on June 30,
1922, it will spend more than four bill
lion dollars, says Secretary Mellon of
the Treasury Department.
These figures include interest on the
public debt which amounts to about
one billion dollars, but include moth
ing for sinking fund or other debt re-
demption. Including both interest and
sinking fund, the government will
spend more than four times as much
the fiscal year 1922 as it spent yearly
before the war.
These expenditures and these heavy
charges are part of the price of VIC
tory. Your whole present problem is
to curtail them. 1t concerns you to
know just how these immense sums
were gathered and how much you paid
and are paying toward them, for of
course we, the tax payers, the men and
women with jobs, the men and women
who have what the census calls gain
full occupations, paid every cent of it.
1t was our money until the govern
ment took it.
Let us examine the fiscal year 1920.
1 have not the detailed account for
1921, but it was slightly less than the
year previous, as the year ending June
30, 1922. will be a slightly less burden
on us than the year preceding. Ac-
cording to careful analysis made by
the late DIR. u. B. Rosa, of the United
States bureau of standards, govern
ment scientist who was deeply and in
telligently interested in the subject
every man, woman and child in this
country contributes an average of
fifty-three dollars in taxes to the sup
port of the national government. Ac-
tually it is nearer fifty-four than fifty
three dollars, but 1 am taking the
smaller sum for the sake of the round
HulHDeT. IlldI is, lHe average ldullly
of five persons pays S265 year out
of its earnings to the federal govern
ment alone, in addition to what Is
paid for state, county and city taxes.
The estimated average yearly income
of a family of five is something more
than S700. But before any of that $700
is spent S265 must be turned over to
the general government to run the
business of the United States.
| The actual amount that each one of
us paid was S53.77. we paid it through
the medium of internal revenue taxes
and customs duties on imported ar
ticles divided as follows:
