WORDS OF WISDOM mo MX FEOPHS When, a demand arisea for an article, and if the supply should not (be quite equal to -the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas and_ customs have been introduced into the orient, are spreading rapidly; this, along with the world's increasing popular ioo. haß caused ah ..extra demand for'all kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area has not increased correspondingly, ,it at onoe reflects <Mi the producing countries, and raises prices. , Great Britain is the ' only free trad© country of any. importance in tie world. In Great Britain, only a few days ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reasons why the cost of living had increased. It has been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 60 per cent, during the last 20. years, wage? had only increased 15per cent, for the same period,.so it is obvious tax-* ing the land will not reduce the cost. <if living, nor increase the workers wageß, and the only/remedy for Great. Britain is Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting, iiuge industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to be with Asiatic labour. The question suggests itself to my people— how can any English, speaking country cope with this menace unless, amply protected to save our industries and wage earners from being brought down to the Asiatic level _ , . , The Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax on the land and free trade.' It is apparent it would not lessen the cost of production, but reduce wages to cope with Asiatic laoour, augmented with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the bungle Tax policy will depend upon the world,adopting it; this ought to ensure safety for a time. . T During my varied experience . 1 found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of becoming well and remaining here if they wiU follow my advice. I.strongly advise my people, and the imaginary- sufferera, to -feast upon- the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., Ample protection on things we can produce, and good wages—• OHAMPION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ROLLED OAT 3.
