WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1984 THE FLESHEIVrON ADVANCE What Motoristo Pay More than 27 per cent of the total revenues collected by the govemnierts of the different proviflces of Canada is contributed by owners of tutoino- biles in the form of taxes on granoline b and license fees. The report states I that the total amount paid 'by auto- I' mobile owners to the provincial treasuries in the fiscal year, 19S2-33, was $45,499,468, of which Kasoline taxes accounU'd for $24,948,;;80 and f20,5&l,173 was in license feci. In the Province of Ontario 35.9 pjr cent of the total government revenue is paid by motorists; in Quebec, 3L pei cent; in Nova Scotia, 27.2 per cent; in New Brunswick, 27.3 per cent; in Albeo-tal, 23.1 per cent; in Priikce Edward Island 22.7 per cent; ir: .Sps- katchcwan, 19.8 per cent; in B.ltisb Columbia, 17 per cent and in Manitoba 16.45 per cent. immediately after the first cut of hay has been harvested, thorougly working: the land during the remaind- er of the season and replowingr in the late fall. In the followiner spring this treatment must be followed by an intertilled crop or a smoother crop such as buckwheat. Couch grass is a most persistent weed and its growth must be kept down for at least six months in order to secure complete eradication. This requires treatment during two seas- on.s where crops are being harvested each year. COUCH GRASS ERADICATION After harvest cultivation is one ot the most effective methods of con- trolling couch grass. This method consists of plowing the infested area STARTING CHICKS Supply water with chili taken off in suitable vessel?, charcoal, shell and grit or river sand. Feed the young- sters immediately on their entry to brooding quarters. A good starting mash consists of: middlings, ground yellow corn, ground oat groats, each one part; shorts, alfalfa leaf meal ai.d animal feed mixture, each Va' part; ibone meal 2 per cent.; cod liver oil 1 to 2 per cent.; and salt % per cent.

Duncan HARDWARE FLESHERTON oppose," asked Mr. Irvine, "a proposal to issue currency and credit for in- ternal use on a basis of aggregate wealth of the country from year to year?" Yes, I do," answered Mr. Dodds. Mr. Irvine kiading the attack for the radicals, was charged with being " theoretical" when he aeked Mr. Dodds, as a banker, to define "money" and the "function of money." His question if there was enough money in Canada to-day to move the goods which are in the country and which people could consume elicitea the sarcastic remark of R. B. HansoO: Conservative chairman of the Com- mittee, "Aren't we getting into the realm of metaphysics?" Mr. Irvine replied heatedly that he did not con- sider it theoretical to find out how tc move the goods now lying unused on the shelves of people who need them; to put money into consumers' pockets so they can buy them. Mr. Dodds didn't get by so easily on all counts. There was a sudden banding together of Conservatives, Liberals and C.C.F.s when the general manager tried to wave aside the ac- cusation that the banks had restricted credit in distress areas and thereby accentuated the evil effects of the depression. Bankers were not in- fallible; they were only human, Mr. Dodds said, and the young branch managers were likely to make mis- takes. His statement that there was no demand for credit, raised the ire of Dr. Morand, Conservative, from Windsor. "It is rediculous," he ex- claimed, "to say that there is no de- mand for credit, when hundreds of thousands of people in this country are going without things they want and need." S. W. Jacobs, Liberal, Montreal, pointed out that in the years 1927 to 1929, when Mr. Dodds assert- ed the banks were sounding warnings against over-speculation, large issues had been put out by companies, the directors of which were, in many cases, directors of the banks. â€"AGNES MACPHAIL House of Commons, Ottawa, March 28, 1934. PORTLAW The treasurer of a Ladies' Add Society went to the bank to deposit some money, remarking to the bank- er, "Here is some Aid money." The teller thought she said "egg" money and responded enthusiastically, "Well the old hens did pretty good." niB STOBil nanou F. T. HILL&CO.,Ltd.

Many sugar bushes that have been idle for years are be- img made to produce this season, so there should be plenty of syrup avail- able this year. Spring opened up suddenly on Sat- urday last and the snow disappeared fast. Still there is plenty of snow and ice yet on the roads, but is being reduced fast. The robins and blackbirds came back in force on Monday and apparently the stiff back of winter has at last been broken.

Din- widdle of Willit.s, California, which revives happy memories of our earlier days. He enquires about his many old friends. The electors of this community that gave a ninety-seven per cent vote in favor of a dry Ontario art justly incensed at the recent action of our legislators in violating the expressed wish of the people by foist- ing upon them an act that we deem contrary to the highest and best interests of our citizens. All honor to the faithful nine who "would not bow the knee to Baal." A reckoning^ time is not far off, and swift and sure retribution should be meted out to those legislators who so ruthlessly betrayed their trust, and our con- fidence. iWhat will the youth of the Sunday schools think of Mr. Henry whom they chose as their leader in spiritual things?
