WEDNESDAY, MAY*<1930. THE FLESH ERTON ADVANCE The Budget Debate i Ottawa, May D. We arc to have an election whether we want it or not. Roars of ap- plause, and indistinguishable din of utterance greeted the Prime Mini- ster's announcement. Excitement ran high. Here and there a member jumped to his feet, waving a blue book, or the white "Orders of tne Day." A frenzy swept the House, and presented to the packed jrallerles a spectacle unparalleled since the n.. i' V. ;, session of 192S. So prolonged was the cheering, so deaf the House to the Speaker's call for "Order", that It looked for a time as if it would be necessary to adjourn the House forthwith. The only section of the House that pre- served its calm was in the Southeast corner, where sit the Independent groups. Yet with all the apparent approval of the announcement the irreat majority of members did not want an election this year, and I believe the same could be said of the major part of the electo-s. Under our system the Prime Minister can announce an election when he will. The Prime Minister's anouncomen: has been timed to take full advant- age of the packed galleries, drawn thither to hear Mr. B. Bennett, the ' Leader of the Opposition. Mr. Ben-' nett's reply to the Budget was awaited with intense interest by the members of the commons and the many visitors could be taken as an indication of the general 'public's interest. His speech was long, but a good-fighting partisan speech with- al. He took the expected ground ol approval in regard to the upward changes in the tariff. He challenged not the Budget, but right of the Liberal Party to bring down a pro- tectionist Budget. He pointed out that it was the sogation of the de-' clared fiscal policy of the Liberal party ,and challenged the Government to resign and turn over the power to the real protectionist party. In re-' jrard to British preference, Mr. Ben- nett left the impression that he would not agree to an increase In 1 the British preference unless Britain jr ranted equal privileges to CanadaJ He spoke for nearly three hours, at times tediously, at other times ar-' ousing his followers to frenzied ex-, citement. He twitted Mr. Dunning for having cast his followers from Saskatchewan to the wolves, and to ' the amusement of the farm group, he made an effective attack on T. A. 1 Trerar "He left the Government! (Union) for conscience sake; he came back because of lack of con-' science. He left the goTernmen; because of a duty on steel and iron of six dollars. Mr. Bennett made . one statement which had a v\>ry dramatic effect. Mr. King had en- quired. "What about the British Empire The Fight Is On Tho United Farmers of South And Mr. Bennett replied, j Grpy Rre to meet jn Onitatm on "I am for the British Empire-next .

The field in which this remarkable crop was crown was o^f a light loam.

The crop was sprayed for late blight every two weeks after the potatoes were up E:X or eight inches.
