I'he attention of the farmers ip
g veral, and Patrons of Husbandry in
p irticular, is called to an article on
tie Capadian reciprocity measure, s
pt scheme of the president of the
{‘nited Btates. The Reporter is not
ich of a believer io a tariff, excep!
on special articles and products, but
i canpot see why the tariff should be
wiped away on the products of the
{+rm and remain on other articles, and
especially when the average tariff ono
rm products is only twenty-five per
nt., and that of manufactured
ticles, forty-tive per cent, It sp-
ars very much as though President
ft regards the farmer as the lesst
i.ogerous ‘* beast '’ to deal with, be-
we of the lack of organization, and
willingness to contribute to cam-
gn funds, If tariff is a benefit,
eo farmer is entitied to his share of it.
