The Seattle Star Soldier Settlers A year or so ago, this country was talking about doing |» t things by its brave soldiers in the way of providing ee lands for such of them as wanted to settle down and farm it. You never hear anything about it any more. It’s different over in Canada, Incidentally, why is it that, when the English decide a thing is good, they go ahead and do it?) What's the matter with the Anglo-Saxon blood in this country? Well, over in Canada, they promised lands to the return- ing boys who wanted them. Today there are actually 15,023 Canadian soldier settlers on Canadian farms, and the num- ber is being added to at the rate of about 1,000 a month, which is as rapidly as it can be done, considering that the farm must be made habitable and rn ped before the settler and his family can settle. ; Is it a good thing for Canada, this policy of passing out farms to all soldiers who apply? ; As an instance, you might consider the success of the 77 settlers established last year in the vicinity of WW etaski- win, Alberta. The season’s total crops of these 77 settlers were valued at $ This is equal to an average pro- duction of $1,000 each, which is mighty good in view of the fact that last year the majority of these settlers were established late. : Assuming that under favorable conditions the annual production should average $2,000, a very conservative esti- mate, as these settlers are given every opportunity and assistance to secure good land well situated, some idea of the ultimate result hoped for may be had when it is realized that there are already 15,023 soldier settlers upon land. This number, if producing an average of $2,000 worth of farm produce—food—would aggregate $30,046,000 yearly. “A chip off the old block,” Young Teddy Roosevelt, in face of the intolerant majority, spoke for real Ame icanism and representative government, when he opposed the expulsion of the New York socialists from the legisla- ture. His eyes see clean—and clear! Rites, there are some most elaborate, but none to com- pare with the ceremony carried out every morning in many, many American homes. First the temperature of the room must be determined and the furnace or other heating appliance looked to. ‘There are put at hand towels of an almost sacred charac- ter; filled with water nicely heated. The high priestess surveys the scene, satisfies herself that all is in order and then—then there is the advent of a He is appropriately solemn; he betrays neither approval nor roval and submits with reservations to what fol- Jows. Woe betide the household if anything goes amiss. His Majesty, the Baby, is quick to notify all the world if aught displeases him. But if things are as they should be, he is no less ready to express his satisfaction. In that event; what chortles, what crowings, accompany the splash- 1 ing sometimes is difficult and perhaps may disturb the general serenity, but all is well again as gurglings, de- lightfully frank, bespeak the gastronomic operation. Then: “Sssh! He’s asleep Milk remains at the same old price in Seattle; that is, the same price that has prevailed for the past few weeks. When the price of lard began going up, makers of lard substitutes were encouraged to greater activity, and, during the war, it was urged upon American housewives to use liberally of these substitutes that lard might be conserved for export to other countries and to American troops in home camps and abroad. American housewives did that Never before was such liberal use made of erican kitchens. ers began noticing the treme inmroad made upon their lard trade by these substitute It threatehed the high profits of their pork business. They reduced the price of lard and kept on cutting the price. Today lard is selling cheaper than a majority of substitutes. In order to make up for this decline in lard quotations, reports the United States bureau of markets, “packers Taised prices on cuts of meat for which the greatest demands Evidently the packers felt they had to kill vegetable| oil competition. Quickest way was to cut the price. When the makers of lard substitutes have been driven out of busi- ness the packers may put the lard price back to where it was. In the meanwhile meat consumers will finance the packers’ war on substitutes by paying more for pork chops asonably well equip- | EDITORIALS — TMM SUATTLY STAR—MONDAY, APRIL 5, TIZ0.

Three men—at present a real estate rental agent, a labor|! union representative and a lawyer—sit upon a koard and hear complaints.
