WOBDS OF WISDOM 10 MY TEOPLE— When a demand arises for an article, and if the supply should not be quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English idea® amd customs have been introduced into the Orient, on/1 ova cnrvronrJiincr rnnirllv • hhift. fllonff with the world's increasing population, Vinm /«raon/l on cvi-jrn. ifomtmrl fflT all I kinds of food, etc., and as the produc- J ing area has not increased correspondingly, it at once reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. Gfeai Britain is the only free toad* country of any importance in Hk» world. . In Great Britain, only a 2ew day* ago, a Commission was apjXHntea to inquire into the reason* why the cost of living had increased. ?%■*■ been officially stated, while the of living had increased 60 per era), during the last 25 years, wages fcad only increased 15 per cent, for the nne period, so it is obvious tax«f living, nor increase the workers' wages, and the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. Tie Orient has, and is erecting, froge 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 theorc 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 labrar, augmented with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy will depend upon the world adopting it; this ought to enBtire safety for a time. Daring my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of becoming well and remaining here if they wiii follow my advice. I strongly advise my people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., vie:— Ample protection on things we can produce, and good wages—"CHAMPION MJSOLE-RAISER FLOW And "STANDARD" OATMEAL and BOLLE.D OATS.
