For Another New Year

In a few duys we will be starting a
New Yeour. To a great many that is
nol going to mean very much, but to

a still larger Glass: it will be a time of.

serivpus thought and planning,

What are we going to:do during the
noxt twelve months?

There will be a general election in
Cunada. Lhat is important. We, as
imlividuals, cau “make: Canada. better
ar we ean put in a lot of men who are
heut in making Canada worse—worse
‘or Canada, but, perhaps better for
ihemselyes gud their friends,

As individuals living on, or close to
the frontier, it is necessary to think
ouce in a while, from a national point
uf view. The coming Dominion elec-
tion is one tine to think nattonally.

There are many local affairs that to
us are of move’ immediate , concern
thin even the Dominion clection, |. «

But without sune eo-operation
this district will neyer get. anything
hut smaller and more isolated. The
individualistic state has’ now been
trial out for many years and the re-
<ult bas beon one disaster after an-
ather, and everyone is down and all
Lut out, There is n chance that by a
ro-aperative movement this district
would come back, an] eyen go fore-
ward at a good healthy pace. May
the New Year see the start of that co-
«jeration so cssential.

‘To all our readers, advertisers and
prtrons of all classes, we wish a
lluppy New Year, and may a measure

of prosperity come to all.
Inuny sides evidence of a return to
normal] times and our wish is that the
next twelve. inonths will bring a Jar-
ver market and fairer prices to all

Hines of industry in our district.

Letter to Editor

The Farmer’s Troubles

- Omineca, B.:C,, Dee, 20
Editor:—While we are quite
aware that while there are quite a
munber of people who have no govern-
nent jobs, or pensions, or government
bonds. but from what we read in the
yapers it would seem that there are a
Tew people, down east, who are not
doing too hadly, during recent years,
we still feel it our duty to pass along
un little information re farming,

Althongh from the papers one might
m@uther that the farmers are’ all selling
timothy seed at enormous prices, we

believe that there is considerable ex-
igzeration about the prices received,
and there still remains the fact that
this is just an accident, ond comes af-
ter flyve years of hard luck. If this
little necident bad not happened it
wonld hive been worse than otherwise
{tis no doubt very unfortunate that. a
few «(id get a brenk, but you should
hot give the credit to the government.
or the blame if yeu prefer. While this
necident occurred in the ease of tim-
athy seed, it might be well to figure
dust what. has been going on for five

of other farm products. Possibly it
will snve a few people some tears of
envy, .
We ennnet understand why it is
that some people would Uke to see the
so-called) racketeers; those who re-
ceive work on the reads, in jail. It is
not necessary to go into details, but
we would like to point out Just one in-
stiunce of why farmers find this little
addition: to their income a Hfe-saver.
Jn this conntry it is necessary to hate
#f leust one ton of grain per aere, and
tt receive $28.00 per ton for snme, if
one Is to receive $4.00 per day for a
wan nnd a tenm, Of course this in-
come applies only to the days worked.
UC ‘nfortunately it is not a 305 days job,
Intt the expenses are going on whether
or not the income comes in, Now the
average crop of whent has been but
bult n ton for some time. When the
tice was only $20.00. 0 ton it meant
i gross income per acre of only $10.00.
After expenses are poid, under our an-
tiquated system of marketing in this
country, there wasleft bit $4.00 ah
acre to ‘cover thie ‘cost of ‘putting ‘the
