Garden Freshness—Always 3 ‘* “Fresh from the Gardens”
. The Py obleni Of Debt
,
The one question, above all others in importance, that is engaging the
‘attention of the people of Western Canada, and of the farming class in par-
ticular, is as to how they are going-to pay their accumulated burden of debt. As a result of drouth conditions extending over two and three years with partial or complete crop failures, and with prevailing world prices for such crops, live stock, dairy and poultry products as they did produce below the actual cost. of production, tens of thousands of farmers have been
‘forced to use all the reserves they may have had, and have gone deeply into
debt.
They find themselves in the position, where, having purchased land and equipment during the war years, and in the post-war period when high prices prevailed, and when wheat sold around $1.50 to $2.00 a bushel, they are now being required to pay these inflated obligations with wheat at 50 cents:a bushel, and in thousands of instances with no wheat at all to’ sell. Instead, therefore, of being able to gradually get out of debt, they find them- selves getting deeper and deeper into debt, with little or no prospect of ever being able in their lifetime to get free of it.
‘Consequently, the relationship of themselves to their various creditors, the appalling interest payments confronting them, the practical impossibility of meeting their obligations, and the alternative possibility of losing their homes, constitutes a veritable nightmare of worry. They feel themselves confronted with the probability that, in the event of harvesting a good, or even fair crop, this fall, their creditors will swoop down on them and gobble everything up, thus leaving them in ‘their present predicament of having nothing wherewith to maintain their families in decency and comfort and “carry on.”
So, inevitably and naturally, everybody is seeking for a solution, and suggestions without number are being advanced. Many, of course, are utterly impracticable; others are economically unsound and would ultimately result in intensifying the difficulty rather than solving it; others, again, offer some hope. - ’ : ‘
It will be recalled that, following the war, Germany adopted policies which, resulted in converting hundreds of millions of marks issued during the war to its own people into so many worthless pieces of paper. France deliberately depreciated its own currency, the franc, ta such a low figure as to accomplish the same résult In its present fibancial emergency, Great Britain went off the gold standard, and its money took a tremendous drop in value almost over night. Now the United States, also faced with a financial emergency, has gone in for “inflation” of its currency, or “refla- tion,” as: they are now pleased to term it, with a view to thawing out its
‘ huge amounts of frozen credits, and to put a larger supply of currency in
circulation. All these expedients have a temporary effect, put the fact re- mains,—it is an economic truth,—that if anything is inflated it must sooner In the end there must be a “writing down” or a “writing off” of liabilities beyond the ability of the debtor to pay.
Sooner or later some portion of the indebtedness of thousands of Western farmers must be written off, and the sooner the better for all concerned. A merchant is forced into bankruptcy, and pays fifty cents on the dollar. He is then free to make a new start, albeit his credit will not be as good as before. If a mortgage or loan company forecloses on a farm property and takes it over, it must ultimately-re-sell that farm to some one else. It is almost certain that it will have to take a loss, selling the farm for less than the original liability against it. Would it not, then, be good business on the part of such loan or mortgage company to take the same loss, or even a somewhat larger one, right now, by consenting to a writing
down the present farmer’s liability to a point where he has a chance to
“carry on” and pay? ‘The property would thus once again become revenue producing to the company, although not perhaps to the extent originally expected. Nevertheless the company conceivably might otherwise have the land on its hands for some time, a-bill of expense for taxes, etc. Surely, it would be better business to keep thé present owner on the land in a position where he can add his mite to the general productivity and prosperity of the country. ;
One suggestion that is receiving increasing attention and support is that
‘ existing farm debts should be capitalized and amortized, that is, that pay-
ments of equal annual instalments covering both principal and interest
‘ spread over a term of years, ‘15, 20, 25 or 30 years, should be agreed upon.
Surely, such a plan can be worked out without undue loss to anybody, and
.in such a manner as to ensure tenure of their homes to: present occupants
and ‘an opportunity to ultimately free themselves of debt.
Unless something of the kind is done, ‘it is almost a certainty that many Western farms will either be abandoned, or will pass through foreclosure proceedings, from their present owners and possibly remain idle in the hands of loan and mortgage companies, or as tax sale properties held by municipal- ities, for a goodly number of years to come, thus seriously retarding the production and development of the country, and imposing a check upon the prosperity of all, individuals, corporations and governments alike.

PLAIN, Simply a Parasite Peddler Is Of No Assistance To Any Town
‘The peddler does nothing to sup- port the town he enters. He leaves to others the matter of pay- ing for the roads, the sidewalks the water service, the lights, the fire pro- tection, and various other services that must be maintained in any town. He does not assist in the mainten- ance of local schools, community or- ganization,, sports, relief or anything else essentially local. So far as the local community is concerned, he is simply a parasite.
“THESE HARD TIMES”
“The hard times and - scarcity of money makes it, more important than ever to economize. One way. I save on clothes is by renewing the color of faded or out-of-style dresses, coats, stockings, and underwear. For dye- ing, or tinting, 1 always use Dia- mond Dyes. ‘They are the most economical ones ‘by far because they never fail to produce results that make you proud. Why, things look better than new when redyed with Diamond Dyes. They never spot, streak, or run. They go on smoothly and evenly, when in the hands of even a ten year old child. Another thing, Diamond Dyes: never take the life out of cloth or leave it limp as |some dyes do. They deserve to be called ‘the world’s finest dyes!’” S.B.G., Quebec.

Tells Dyspeptics What To Eat
Strict Diets Often Unnecessary
It is a well known fact that some foods have a strong tendency to produce excessive stomach acidity and conse- uent Indigestion. By omitting from ally meals those’ foods that expe- rience proves do not agree and limit- ing the diet to certain tasteless unap- petizing foods, stgmech troubles may in many instances slowly overcome. Nine’ times in ten, however, indigestion, gas, etc., are due to excessive acidity and the premature souring of food In the stomach. Keep the stomach clean and sweet by freeing it of this extra acid and then sufferers can eat “the foods they like best and as much as they want In reason and have no stom- ach trouble at all. Thousands of peo- ple do this daily .by merely taking after every meal a little Bisurated Magnesia, which, can be had at any good drug store in either powder or tablet form, Bisurated Magnesia instantly neurtal+ izes stomach acids, stops food fermen- tation and meals digest as naturally and painlessly as in the stomach of a healthy child. Stomach comfort means a_ lot and most folks like good things to eat, Enjoy them both by making Bisurated Magnesia your dally after-eating pro- tection.

From $500 To Fortune
President Of Biscult Company Tells Success Story and What Consist- ent Advertising Will Do
A romance of modern business’ that should be an inspiration to every small store-keeper was told to news- paper men today. (Friday, February 26th) by Mr. C. EH. Edmonds, Presi- dent of Christie, Brown and Com- pany, Limited, who is completing his fifty-sixth year of service with the company,
Mr. Edmonds, who can recall per- sonally much of the rise of the Chris- tie, Brown organization, told haw the giant biscuit company was started in @-small store on Yonge Street, Tor-
onto, by two men with a working |_
capital of probably not more than $500. Today the business they, found- ed is capitalized at millions of dollars and is the largest industry of its type in Canada. It has two manufactur- ing plants in the East, another—the million dollar Winnipeg plant opened last week—in the. West and thirteen distributing branches from Halifax to Vancouver,
The simple history of Christie, Brown and Company as told by the active veteran president is this: The business began in 1849 when. two young men, James Mathers and Alex- ander Brown formed a partnership in a small store in Toronto to make bis- cuits. They had with them as assist- ant salesman, William Christie, who was destined to become a partner and eventually play an important part in Canada’s biscuit making industry.
The biscuits sold from. this small bakery became popular with a limit- ed clientele and the business began to progress. Four » years «later
‘Brown and Mathers retired and the |’
business was handled by young Wil-: liam Christie. Mr. Brown, howeyer, re-entered the company in 1861 and the name, Christie, Brown and Com- pany, Limited was adopted. Confederation of'Canada in 1867
found the buusiness firmly established
as,one of Canada’s coming concerns. In 1871 and again in 1874 larger premises were necessary and it was symptomatic of the sales energy be- hind the organization that the first trans-Canada train had a Christie representative on board.
From that point the business has never looked back until today Christie Biscuits are known round the world. The original store in Toronto has been replaced by three factories, one oc- cupying nearly a whole down town block in Toronto, the second Toronto factory occupying many thousands of square feet of floor space and the third, the new Winnipeg plant, is acknowledged the finest biscuit fac- tory on the continent.
The original plant turned out a very small variety of biscuits, Today over 500 lines are marketed.
And here, according to Mr. Ed- monds, is the real key to success in the Christie, Brown organization, It has consistently maintained a high standard of quality in its products and has advertised steadily in good times and bad, using newspapers from coast to coast, year in and year out. :

Minitaba Government Will See That Development At Churchill Will Be Along ‘Proper Lines
Churchill, baby of the pioneer towns of the north, is to be brought up a good-natured child. She will be well-groomed and attractive, accord- ing to her guardian, the Manitoba Government. She will have at least as
» many accessories as can be provided her in the stress of these hard times, but she must not grow up too fast.
Thousands of Canadians would like to grow up with the far-north sea- port on Hudson Bay, which is to be opened this summer. The province, zealously guarding the welfare of lit- tle’ Churchill, long-hoped-for prairie outlet ‘to the sea, plans an’ orderly de- velopment that will assure the town against unemployment.
No squatters will be allowed to set: tle in the townsite, Hon. J. G. Mc- Kenzie, Minister of Natural resources, has decided. Guided by painful ex- perience in the cases of such’ settle- ments as.Cranberry Portage and Flin Flon, in Manitoba’s central mining district, where squatters have creat- ed a major problem to the govern- ment, Manitoba is going to see to it
‘ that Churchill thrives on a better- planned settlement.
Shortage of government funds may make Churchill's baptism .a rather less pompous procédure than the ad- ministration hoped a few months ago. | Mr. McKenzie said it had been origin-

form, aft adequate sewerage, a pure water supply and fire-proof buildings.
But such an amount of money will not be available this summer. For initial work making possible the town’s opening, Mr. Mackenzie ex- pects an outlay of $50,000 will be necessary. This amount probably ' will be spent,
Hundreds of persons who want to! start business in Churchill at the out- set of ite career have created a prob- lem for Mr. McKenzie’s department. ‘Those whc are given the right to open businesses, whether hotels, thea- tres or stores, will need capital back
, of them, the Minister: said, as they will have to figure to a large degree on seasonal business.
The government does not want a horde of unemployed at Churchill dur- ing the long winters of inaction when the port is closed and business is at a standstill. Those in the government service who have charge of plans, for the town say it would be cruel to al- low a population to get started there which would be without the means to: get’ proper shelter, food and fuel during the winter.
So the slogan for Churchill will be orderly development ‘within the bounds of reason.” . The population
to,start with: must of necessity be |’
very small, ‘within the bounds of what work and busiifess is nécessary. There will ‘be railway yards, ocean commerce; ‘docks, grain elevators, warehouses and other basic businesses to start with. In time industry’ will develop on Dominion property, which will be Ieaséd for industrial purposes. The province, though owning the townsite, has ne land for industrial purposes.

No ‘one will be allowed to obtain property and then hold it for, a long time with- out developing it.
The flimsy houses, tents and other traditionall phenomena that rose in bygone boom-towns will not be a fea- ture of Churchill's early life. First buildings are expected to be fire-proof hotels and well constructed boarding houses. To permit any other launch- ing of the town, it is held, would re-
be leased by the province.

“It appears the pitchblende depos- its. will be as rich as, and possibly richer than any of the other known deposits in the world,” he said, ‘The importance of this find from ' the standpoint of the treatment of cancer may be imagined. In the same ad- dress Dr. Camsell said the value of the mineral products of Canada ex- ceeded the value of the wheat crop, a statement doubtless based on the recent low price of wheat.
‘Only the aeroplane has made the

Physical : difficulties made exploration of this region. impossible. for the next cen- tury and a half. Enough has been re- vealed in recent years to show the triangle between the Mackenzie River, Great Bear Lake and the shore of the Arctic west of the Coppermine, is one of the richest mining regions of the world.—Toronto Globe.
One Of Hardest Jobs
Faced By Mounties In Recent Hunt For Trapper
Truth, they say, is-stranger than fiction. And had any novelist writ- ten an imaginative story correspond- ing to the truth behind the hunt in - the sub-Arctic regions of Canada for the “crazy” trapper, Johnson, it might have been regarded as far-. fetched. Those who sit in comfort here can have'little conception: of the hard- ships .and adventures the posse of Royal Canadian Mounted Police and their aides experienced, while pursu- ing this extraordinaryman in the Arctic wastes. He had illimitable space to manoeuvre in and he was inured to cold. Had he not been an exceptional man himself, plus having a mental kink that made him imper- vious to suffering, he would haye been run down long before, or suecumbed to the rigorous conditions. Right to the dramatic end he put up a remark- able fight and died with his boots on. Tough as the Mounted Police are, this was one of the hardest jobs, if not the ‘hardest, they. had ever tackled. But they lived up to their name and fame,-as they always do. They may well pray, however, :to-be delivered from such an ‘adventure again for it cost the life of one gal~ lant man and serious injuries to twa
others.—St Thomas Times-Journal.

JESUS DIES ON THE CROSS
Golden Text: ‘Christ died for our jsins according to the Scriptures.” —- 1 Corinthians 15.3, : a
Lesson: John 18.1 to 19.42. Devotional Reading: Romans 5.1-8.
Explanations and Comments
The Trial Of Jesus, verses 1-16.— ‘We. see the various actors in the drama—Caiaphas, Herod, P'late—all falling into place, as.at some mystic signal; each doing somthing that had to be done, each doing something dictated by the grossness of his na- ture, and thus something for which he is answerable; but also doing something that was an unconscious fulfillment of a program; and Jesus Himself passing through all scenes with the sublime steadfast- ness of one who knows that thus it must be. This is the joy of the cross. Jesus has not lost His way. He moves steadily to His goal. He is no victim of accident—at every step something was done that the will of God made necessary and inevitable.” —wW. J. Dawson.
On the Way To Calvary and Cruci- fixion, verses 17-19.—Roman soldiers threw a red cloak around Jesus,
laced a crown of thorns upon His ead in imitation of ‘the laurel wreath worn by Roman emperors on festive occasions, and put a reed in His hand as a mock sceptre. Then they spat upon Him, struck Him, and jeered Him.’ When wearied of this sport they led Him away to be crucified. The procession started with a herald’ at the head bearing a board on which was written the Prisoner’s ‘crime”’—Jesus of Naza- reth, the King of the Jews. After Him came a centurion With four sol- diers, carrying nails and hammers. Then came Jesus bearing His cross, the two thieves with their crosses, all closely guarded by Roman soldiers, and followed by a motley crowd of men and women, enemies-and sym- pathizers with Jesus, priests and dis- ciples.
Through the city gate they went. Soon Jesus’ strength failed; He was unable to stagger along under His |cross. The soldiers themselves would not carry it, and meeting S'mon of Cyrene, they compelled him to carry /it on to the hill called’ Golgotha; or Calvary. There Jesus was nailed to the cross and the cross erected, with ; the thieves on either side of Him.
verses 25-27. With the loyal women friends who stood by the cross— Salome, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene—was Mary His mother.
“If I were hanged on the highest hill
I know whose love would follow me - still, .
Mother o' mine.”—Kipling.
Jesus looked upon His mother and upon John, and said to Mary, ‘‘Wo- man, behold thy son,” and to John, “Behold, they mother!’
The Death Of Jesus, verses 28-30. Read here Matthew 27.45, 46; Mark 15.33, 34. John records Jesus’ cry, “I thirst,” and at the same time writes, “that the scripture might be accom-
Jesus uttered the cry so. as to fulfil scripture, but that, as John, looked back upon the scene in later years he saw, as: he wrote, that it did fulfil scripture. :
Near at hand was a vessel full of vinegar, the “posca,” or wine, which was the usual drink -of Roman sol- diers. A sponge was fastened to the end of a branch of hyssop, filled with the vinegar, and held up for Him to
.'drink. Jesus received it, and then ex-
claimed ‘‘it is finished,” as His head fell. and His spirit left Him. Finished, in the sense of ended, were His suf- ferings, and finished, in the sense. of completed, was the sacrificial offer- ing. “It is a triumphant exclama- ‘tion, meaning: “‘God’s will is obeyed; man’s redemption is secured; immor- tal victory is won; Heaven is. open to man; the gloom of the grave is
'| changed into the glory of resurrection and ascension with Christ’!”

Placing Of a Fresh Duty On Canadian Grain Is Unlikely
Paris, France.—-Reports that the French Government will place a fresh duty on Canadian wheat on the ex- piration of: the Franco-Canadian trade treaty next June have no sub- stantiation. It was learned the gov- ernment has not reached any decision, and such action is described as very improbable.
It is pointed out France is bound to import wheat, as her own pro- duction is. short, and duties would | merely increase the cost of bread to the consumer without benefiting the domestic wheat producer. If any such action were - taken ‘it would have to be done under the so-called “padlock act’? which authorizes the government to increase duties - on certain products, - mostly foodstuffs, including wheat, by decree without | previous notice. | The ministry of agriculture put in- |to force drastic restrictions on the importation of fresh fruits and live plants, which .affect Canada ‘among other countries.

Gardening the Solution Of Present Day Ills Says’ University Professor . Vancouver, B.C.—‘“‘Back to the gar- den” rather than “back to the land,” is the solution of many .of present day ills, said Dr, A. F. Barss, De- partment of ‘Horticulture, University. of British Columbia, in an address be- fore the Local Council of Women, “Everyone hears the slogan, ‘back to the land,’ as being the cure of all economic ills,”’ Dr. Barss said. ‘‘This is not the solution for everyone: Rath- er let them say ‘back to the garden,’ for there a large majority may find nourishment for the body and at the same time @ cure for the soul.”

Jean smiled at him engagingly.
“Of course you will,” she replied. I invariably side-track old friends when I get a chance.”
“Oh, you'll get the chance right enough!""—rather sulkily.
“Yes, I think I shall’—demurely. “Geoffrey. has always. been nice to me; and now Judith, too, has suc- cumbed to my charms, and says she hopes we shall be good pals.”
Tormarin rose, pushing back his chair w'th unnecessary violence.
‘I don’t think I see Judith Craig extending her fr.endship to Glyn Peterson’s daughter,” he commented
cynically.
An instant later the door banged behind him’ and Lady Anne and Jean looked across at each other smiling, as women will when one of their man-

But a quick sigh chased the smile from Lady Anne's lips.
“Poor. old Blaise!” she murmured, /ags though to herself. Then, her grey ; eyes meeting Jean’s squarely, she said | quietly:
“Jean, you're so much one of us, now, that I should like you to know what lies at the back of things. You'd understand—some of us—better.
Jean turned impulsively.
“I don’t need to understand you,” she said quickly, “I love you.” “Thank you, my dear.” Anne’s voice trembled slightly.

“You—you, too!” whispered Jean.
“I, too?” Lady Anne questioned: ‘What does that mean ?”
“Why, it seems to me as if ‘no one’ is ever allowed to be really hap- py and’ to live their life in peace! There is Judith, whose life my father spoilt, and Clare, whose life Sir Adrian spoils—and that means Nick’s life as well. And now—you !”’
Some unconscious: instinct of re- ticence deep within her forbade the mention of Blaise Tormarin’s name.
“I expect we are not meant to be too joyful,” said Lady Anne. ‘‘Though, after all, it’s largely our own fault if we are not. We make or mar each other’s happiness; it isn’t Fate. .: . But I’ve had my share of happiness, Jean—never think that I haven't. Afterwards, with Claude, I was utter- ly happy.”
She fell silent for a space, ceasing on that quiet note of happiness. Pres- ently, almost loth to disturb the rev- erie into which she had fallen, Jean questioned hesitantly:
“And the ‘mark of the beast,’ ma- donna? You were going to tell me about it.’’

“And then? What happened then?” asked Jean in low, shocked tones.
“I was very ill—so ill that they thought I should not live. But I did live, and I brought my baby into the world. Only he’ was born with that white lock of hair. And my own hair had turned perfectly white.”

‘Married her!”
The words leapt from Jean's lips before she. could check them. In the account of Tormarin’s disastrous love affair which had been.forced upon her hearing in London, there had been no mention of the word marriage, and she had alwayss imagined that the wo- man, this Nesta Fréyne, had simply jilted him in favour of another man. Moreover, since she’ had been at Staple, nothing had been said to cor- rect this impression, as, very natur- ally, the subject was one avoided by general consent.
