OUT BACK.
Plea-e permit me to express my devest sympathy with "Victim of the New Tyranny." It is only those who live in the more remote districts that know the awful stniggle many farmers' wives have had to contend with in recent years. Little can be expected from a Government mo.-t of whose members freely admit that They have devoted their lives t" the aim- of the trade union movement and the remainder most concerned with keeping their scats. Hence, if any notice is taken at all of your correspondent's letter by the powers that be. it will be on the line of, '"They should produce more, not babies but calves, lambs and piglets, then they could pay the taxes."' or else the familiar cry, '"Why didn't they look after their money in the good times? v which remark will no doubt leave your correspondent speechless. It is peculiar that only farmers are expected to have a nest ecrjr to fall back upon. Single men can blow a. substantial sum at the races or elsewhere and then g<o on the dole. SYMPATHISER.
