EASTERN STAR HOLD PRIZES AND TROPHIES PRESENTED TO LEADING GOLF MEMBERS Considerable interest was shown in the Ontario Farm Products Parade held at Toronto recently. The Department of Agriculture, in inâ€" troducing this novelty, did so in order to imâ€" press upon consumers in Toronto and elseâ€" where the need for buying more farm products. It also reminded the people in the urban centres that they had a community interest with the In the United States if President Hoover is elected he may carry out his promises to further increase the tariff against Canadian products. The Democratic candidate, Governor Roosevelt‘s attitude in regard to the war debts has been more favorable to the"alfied nations than that of his opponent. The German election will determine whethâ€" er Hitler will receive sufficient votes to put him in power. If not, President Hindenburg will probably continue in control. The resuk of the election is of great importance as foreign banks, chiefly in London, New York and Paris, have loaned huge sums of money to German banks and the government. The real reason for the cancellation by the Allies of the remaining German war debts was the desire to assure the repayment of Germany‘s commercial debts to the allied creditors. Followers of Hitler have suggested that if placed in power they will reâ€" pudiate the debts of allied nations. l During the coming week two elections will take place which may have a decided influence on world conditions. On Sunday the people of Germany will vote and on Tuesday the United States election takes place. Canadian people who believed Governor Roosevelt, United Stgtes presidential candidate, would if elected this month be more favorable to Canada in respect to tariff on farm products, will be somewhat surprised to read his address given at Baltimore recently, He made referâ€" ence to the tariff question as follows: Mr. Roosevelt has thus made it clear that if elected President he will favor no reduction in the prohibitive American tariff against Canaâ€" dian agricultural products. This stand is taken no doubt because the Democratic party depends for their prospects of a return to power largely upon the great farming sections of the Middle Western States. The Republicans are the authâ€" ors of the present duty against Canadian farm products and Canadian agriculturists therefore have no reason to look for any measure of relief through increased markets in the United States. ADVERTISING RATES On application. Advertising copy must reach the office not later than Monday noon to insure insertion. "Of course it is absurd to talk of lowerâ€" ing tariff duties on farm products. I declared that all prosperity in the broader sense springs from the soil. I promised to endeavor to restore the purchasing power of the farm dollar by making the tariff effective for agriculture, and raising the price of farmers‘ products. I know of no effective excessively high tariff duties on farm products. I do not intend that such duties shall be lowered. To do so would be inconsistent with my entire farm programme, and every farmer knows it and will not be deceived." The situation caused by the worldâ€"wide fall in commodity prices is not pleasing to the farmer. The intraâ€"Empire trade agreements give promise of a measure of relief for the Canadian agriculturist in wider markets in countries within the Empire. | DOOR CLOSED TO CANADIAN FARMER | THnE WaArERLOO CHRONICLE SUBSCRIPTION RATES In United States, per year ................. BUY MORE FARM PRODUCTS IMPORTANT ELECTIONS ENJOYABLE PARTY Kitchener and Waterloo citizens wondered what it was all about when they witnessed a hilarious crowd of youths pulling an old fire hose wagon thrwgh the streets from Kitchener to aterloo on Friday afternoon. It was the senior Waterâ€" loo College squad seated in the wagon putting the College freshies through their initiation stunts, g:rt of which was ï¬ulling the firehose wagon to Kitchener. Some were attired in pyjmas, others with aweatâ€" ers and college colors. The previous night they marched to the home of local residents at midnight and deâ€" cided that it was time two of their number had called it a night with two of the gentler sex, and escorted ‘ the two lads to the college, much to their displeasure. COLLEGE FRESHIES PARADE TWINâ€"CITY STREETS WITH WAGON ___Mr. Edwin Capling of Tees, Alberta, is a guest at the home of kis brotherâ€"inâ€"law, Mr. William Mcâ€" Dougall, Waterloo. Mr. Capling, who for many years has farmed in the west, spoke of conditions in the west and is of the opinion that there is distinect improvement over the previous year. The farmers, parâ€" ticularly in this district, had a splen-‘ did yield of grain this year and as a result their financial position is much improved despite the present low prices for grain.

If a large proportion of Ontaric farm & r-‘mumtmfmwywm Lid,|in turn be able. to buy more manufactured It is reported that lobbyists are busy at Ottawa to frustrate the enactment of important recommendations contained in the report of the Royal Commission on transportation,. This is no time for political interference with the operation of the Canadian National Railway if efficient operation and management is to be had. The people of Canada believe the Canadian National is entitled to a fair chance to make good. It cannot be a financial success if there is interference in its operation by politicians or other interests. The best way is to place it in the hands of competent men who can be trusted to operate it without fear or favor and with one object in view, that of making it pay its way. The officials at the jail are to be comâ€" mended for bringing the uprising among the prisoners under control without loss of life or serious injury to any person. Hon. Hugh Guthrie announces that there will be no public investigation into the causes of the recent riots among prisoners at the Portsmouth penitentiary. He stated the officials had the situation well in hand, making public inquiry unnecessary. It appears that the trouble started when three prisoners, working at the stone quarry, who laid down their tools, were placed in their cells. Other prisoners thertupon caused a disturbance and demanded that the three comrades be released. Three hundred of nine hundreds prisoners joined in a riot. At a preliminary enquiry they stated their grievâ€" ances as refusal of cigarette papers, longer hours of recreation and daily newspapers. Hon. Mr. Guthrie states his department has comâ€" menced a full enquiry. No doubt the grievances of the inmates of the penitentiary will be given the consideration they deserve. goods. Statistics show that every year we imâ€" port and consume too large quantities of foreign farm products. Thése are no better than our own and in some cases inferior. Recently Attorney General Price quoted figures which put the matter very clearly. On tario imported last year 7,500,000 pounds of butter which should have been produced here. About 20,000,000 bushels of corn were â€"conâ€" sumed, but only a small portion was grown here. Fruits and vegetables to the value of $2,700,000 were imported though our own are the finest vegetables in the world. The demonâ€" stration will doubtless stir up increased demand for farm products which the producer may sell at a profit and therefore will be in a better position to buy manufactured goods of the city. Officials bf the Hoover government in the United States have let it be known that they have no intention of extending moratorium on war debts and expect Great Britain and France to meet the war debt installments due in Decemâ€" ber. It is known that the British government has been building up dollar balances for the purpose of meeting $92,000,000 of war debt on date named. Owing to the decline of the pound these war debts have become all the heavier since the amounts owing are greatly increased. Some outstanding Americans are of the opinion that the United States has no real moral claim on these payments from allied countries. The allied countries gave millions of men in the world war while the United States gave money on which they nov demand repayment. Another argument againsi the payment of the war debt is that it makes for the slow return of world prosperity. President Hoover, it is beâ€" lieved, favors a liberal policy but the Demoâ€" cratic candidate, Roosevelfy calls for the payâ€" ment of every dollar. Unless something is done to scale down the war payments or cancel them in full, world recovery will be slow.

At the Imperial Eoonomic Conferâ€" ence in Ottawa, the United Kingdom announced a plan which she hopes will restore conditions that should make hog production more favorable for home producers and, at the eame time, will give Carada free entry to ( her market.

This condition has made hog production in the United Kingâ€" dom unprofitable as well as in the British Dominiona supplying the British market. \ While prices of hoge over the last year have been low ad considered by many as not remunerative; neverâ€" theless, the fact remains that the ewine industry gave as good returne as any claes of livostock that came off Ontario farms and, over a period Of years, has proven one of the most profitable products.
