WAR PROFITS.
Our report or yesterday quoted Mr. Barnard. who has just returned from Ottawa, .'is stwtinfc that < :u? company would ctintrth 'tv to the-'national exchequer l-xvhv end of the present year $1.500,000 under the war profits tax. As this is only a fraction «if the profits earned toy th- firm above a very generous percent age not taxed at all, it sheds a clear light upon the enormous fortunes that are bch-o^nade from war contracts. T__ y
The state has received only a tiny = rraTTT"h tif tl.v pnirH« that h’.xn* Jttârvcsicd from war contracts during the last'three years If the ant 'Unt a. tu-
~&ITy roveIveT TOm““TTtT« ’vrtmw be computed its relative meagreness probably would l»e astonishing. The wlmle return of the business profits tax lust year w as only $ I *,006.000, ami this included taxes paid by innumer
able firms which are- not engaged in filling war orders and which, indeed, are actually suffering from the war. Yet we would be safe in estimating the total profits on the $1,500,000,000 worth of war contracts placed in this country—munitions, clothing. foodstuffs of all kinds—at several hundreds of millions? A very large proportion of this should have gone to the Slate for pensions, more generous allowance» _
* fur the dependents of s«>l«liers and to help defray thé cost of the war generally.
If it is. the intention of the Government to substitute the. proposed income tax for the war profits tax. as .Sir Thomas White is reporte«l to have stated, the situation is not going to be altered at all in its general effect. The profiteers will pay no more than they pay now, while many others who- are actually suffering from the war will pay more. A war income <f $500,000 will pay '««nly twenty-five , p*-r cent. Surely- ih« state should have the long end «if ft. Why, indeed, should any- b«Mly be pcrmUied~.to erect a large f<-r-
_$une on the anguish and sacrifice of the country? “Why does Sir Thomas "White blind himself to the fact that there is all the different <- in the world between the big. income derived- from the necessities of a nation with its life at stake and the «ordinary activities of busitiess and investment in time of peace? Why put the profiteer on the same basis as the business man twh<» Is not a profiteer ? The state financed many of the firm*, tilling . war orders In the first place by- making advances of millions in the aggregate Surely it should share largely in the profits, especially in view <>f the patriotic purposes to which that share could be devoted. * •
STATE CONTROL AND DIRECTION.
VI me years ngo the state should have gone Into the niu- n«lions business on. its own account. It should do so now. It has

Misery in Back, Headache and Pain in Limbs.
Dear Mr. Editor— For more than a year 1 suffered with misery in the back, dull headache, pain in the limbs, waa somewhat constipated and slept poorly at night until I was about ready to oof- lapse. Seeing an account of the wonderful qualities of "Anurie," prepared
: by Doctor Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., I sent for a box, and before using the
j whole box I felt and still feel improved. My sleep is refreshing, misery reduced, and life is not the drag it was before. I most cheerfully recommend this remedy
; to sufferers from like ailments.Yours truly, W. A. Kobebtb.

; headed by “A Prison Without Walls,” musb-al part i m w hich Myrtle Steadman, is featured.
A popular comedy and an English graphic series will make up the real of the programme. Many distinctive features will he added in the house which, it Is believed, will |»opularize It
once with the motion picture public. Monday and Tuesday will thus be motion picture «lays at the Pan- tagts.
• The usual high class programme of vaudeville features will commence «•ash week with the matinee |»erf«>rm- »n* «- on Wednesday, at the usual time, ami continue for the remaining days of the week.' It i* e-xpecled by the

Nor* : YotTre all undoubtedly heard of the famous Dr. Pierce and hi* well- known medicines. Well, this prescription is one that has been successfully used for many years by the physicians and* specialists of Dr. Pierce’s Invalids’ Hotel and 8.urgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y., for kidney complaints, and diseases arising from disorders of the kidneys and bladder, each as backache, weak back, rheumatism, dropsy, congestion of tlie kidneys, inflammation of the bladder, scalding urine, and urinary troubles.
i Up to tliis time, * Annric” has boi ; been on sale to the public, but by the 1 persuasion of many patients and the
increased demand for this wonderful healing Tablet, Dr. Pierce has finally decided to put it into the .drug stores of thistcountry within immediate reach of aii sufferers.
I know of one or two leading drag- gists in town who have managed to procure a supply of "Anurie" for their, anxious customers in and around titia locality. If not obtainable send one dime by mail to Dr. Pierce for trial package or 50 cçnts for full treatment.. Editor — Please insert this letter in Some conspicuous place in your paper.

According to officers of the Canadian-Australasian liner arriving here last nig lit there has been considérable volcanic activity in .the Samoan group and the theory Ja advanced that the Wairuna may have-met disaster during a submarine quake

Admiral Speaks of U Boat Warfare; Can Not Starve
Britain
London."jJlily 27.—In the. course "<»f a debate in the Htruae of lairds on f««»d prie, x Admiral Bai- m lU-retiford" 'said ; that the shortage of shipping wan far | more serious than the public knew. The- statistics showed that between "August, lul l, and 'January. 1917, tlie British, j allivUrund lient i al loss iupl been 4,000,- 000 tuns sunk. I eeri) January. 1917, until now nearly 4.000.000 inure lihd la-en iosl. The aveiage raté of loss, tnklTrg- the months—from January nkt now, was H.uvO.000 tons a year.
When - the War started. t here ab-re 49.000,000 tons of ^shipping in the .world, of which tlie British, otljer Allies and neutrals -had 30,000.000. That, trad been reduced already by 8,000,000 tapi. His opinion was.tauL nbw there was not much more tliau 22,000,000 or 2 ;.000,000 tons. ;Agains( that pile liad to consider whut the Americans could put in the water, including ships taken from the Germans, which were alsnit 2,000,000 tons, but a large number of these ships were not suitable for cargo carrying. Tin- output of the British and their allies was about 2.500,000 tons. During tlie first two years of war shipbuilding had gone down terri rl* ally and Britain wak not nearly beginning to iriake it up. He did pot think the Allies could make up altogether more than 4.000,000 tons a
Not only the shortage in steel had to be considered, but the shortage-m engines too. He thought the |H»sition very dangerous., and asked the Government once more to- alter the « et urns of, losses, which were most misleading. They pul in the arrivals and depart- .lire's of all ships, but only the losses of • British ships and did not put in tonnage whu-h was really tl • whole question.
As far as starvation was concerned, U«- did. n<d l**lie\> that |s»s*ili|e. The .object <-f the U lioats was entire!) de-

Discrimination has been made against one Fiction of the farming community, the ClovernnVehl having doubled the taxes 'oh- all' land* within unorganized «11 strict*, a* th tubage „U.u.V the power to tax land within tiie municipalities Municipalities govern themselves by elected councils and un- organlzed .illstrt» ts have no representation, other than the legislative In the liK’ul House, anil thus jwe are at the m« rcy of the" 'Provincial Government, though i we hay«v the right to look to them us do the residents within the municipalities look.to the councils. The difference is, "however, that th*y ha«> gradually Increased their tax rate aml^ also'fj-evised théir land aaseasment values, reducing the name since the boom period.
1'norg.mized districts have had no revlsioji since the luium anil assesseii values hav«^. rtSnàlnad-ever- jpinci» the same. Tli.-ir taxes ha.\•- now been doubled on that same ass« ssment valu» ami let all take notice of this fact, "that they have been- granted" threemonths within which t*> fm»i that double tax or their taxes kconie delinquent and their land can be sold."
This hasty legtslittVpb la*«-«»mes' cruller as one looks into it, as very few farmers wery aware that tills tax was to com»- in this year, as the notices were sent out in July and tax must b«- met by September, whereas thegordin- ary tax notice is sent out in l*ecem- ber and Is not deltliqu»-ht until the following December. À full year against three months as now.
The Hon. J. Hart.' Minister of Finance. in a statement recently attempted to show that fanners had been favored and were not penalized; but when stating that the rate was reduced fn, 1910 to a half »»f ione |>er cent. TSlc- Ftride f3o' ernment) he omitted to mention th«* fact that th» assessed values were <1 ou bled, and thus there was actually no clutnge in taxation even then.
All governments are alike Inasmuch as thçv will always tax along lire lines of least resistance, and. as all the world knows, here the farmers are absolutely unorganized and easy victim* under the circumstances.
The Brewster Government gave every encouragement to the formation of the United Farmers of Brilisli Columbia, but, alas for our expectations, the brave atari made aprpears to have wrecked Itself in an attempt to publish a mighty Issue of its "By-laws" ainl become perfectly organized 1 «cfi.ru making an effort to make its power felt, it appears to he moribund and at a time when, by energetic and quick action it could establish itself a« u ptiwt-r to be reckoned with, for all time. It lacks yi.rlle and necessary leadership. Pntll farmers have the * courage to create a political party of their own they must accept what is given them and he thankful.
ITemier Brewster promised a delegation recently that tlje members of the Taxation Commission would be appointed at the coining session and thus there Is some hop** tbUt this Inequitable state of affars will not continue on into 1918, Many people are In serious straits to meet this double taxation and if it Is to continue over another year disaster face* them and a serious problem will ho facing the Government without doubt.
Unorganized districts need some 1 letter system »»f control, and when one remembers tfie huge revenue gathered In fmm timber leaves and mining it appear* altogether unfair to soak im- pfovetl land double taxes and let off holders of unimproved land (wild land)a with one quarter increase.
If nothing else this legislation is a striking example of penalizing, industry an«l letting off the speculahir.' Candidly. I cannot believe thé Liberal Government understood what they were about in passing such 'Ill-advised legislation. In all fairness it must, however, be admitted that many portions of" the untitgganlzeU district* have not been correctly taxed, much land away from the cities being underassessed or Inequitably. Also values id assessment have been kept down through political pull and this the new taxation, commission will be alile to rectify. Finally to reach the "profits’* stage mentioned by the writer, let me at once assure him the farfrm-rs are not receiving “«louhle what they received even before the war.” Lamb price* have barely increased one-fifth to us, u* f»*r the past four year* the price ha* been some $8 for lambs anil now $10. Mutton for several year* at certain times fetched 18c dressed and this year 22c. Other stuff In proportion. You often hear there is a shortage of milk, yet dairymen here very frequently are forced to make butter oV ci cam. as the dairies in town, are over-., supplied. The increase to dairynvm
lia* been less than one-fifth, but they have had to, pay on increase pf jiboiit 100 per cent, for thvlf feed*, and this t ppliea fo all feeds'for all stock. Less money is thtia being made now and not mure. $11 (or a lamb is. an « x-r treme ease. Butcher? a.r© paying tlx s** prices to satisfy your demand, and it nirtins about 28c lb. dre-gsed to its.
ople in the cities .ire ilemuml- Ing luxuries and forcing the butcher- to satisfy your demands. After the earnest appeals of *»ur Government and your knowjedgy of the serious state of the food market, Is Tt not a crime to admit y«»u pay such prices for meat as 40c lb. and more ? Also, if lamb and. veal could bo secured ns cheaply as mutton and beef, would it not also he very wrong to encourage the killing of this Immature stock Evidently some people are getting off very lightly In dhe-cities, and can w?ll stand more taxation, or are they profiteers enjoying high living, whilst some of their brethren ort tho farms, many of them* lone soldiers’ wive;*, some, sad to say, widows, are thankful to get the entrails and heads <>l Hie animals killed t«> satisfy the epicurean appetites of their wealthy» city, brethren; .many wit'Ti Tills double taxation if they try to meet the bill that usually is glvèn them a year to meet will not taste meat this coming winter. Only small hidden; of land can meet this tax. There is no complaint about the lack of money, and' it is not the « »*st f.f liviilg hut cost of liigh living wlliçh is the cause »»f complaint.
In conclusion, no shyep men raire l:imt«H fo the ewo 4iere and ai ■
\«*ry fortunate to get .«ne, with floegs of over 100 head. Also d*> not f<-rg»'t tbe price s»-ciyj«-(l from the butcher Is not all profit, as the writer rooty ven*

I offer my apologies to the writer if my language hurts his feelings, Dili nssure him I shall be glad to hav»' him give me a tali if in this district, whep l will pit him in the way »jf hearing the truth about farmers’ profit* and ne glad of the opportunity.
The f irmers' .neetl une oruanizattui) to educate the public and keep them Informed of all c<in«iiiiops as they arise and affect th»' consumer, as farmers do but demand a fair price and the opportunity of living under as fair con- 4ikuux.aJL Llieir .city unigh.bony. ..Note,, farmer* spend their all in your cities and If you do pay high pri«it means where some qf this is actually received by nh».'- funnel s that you get it i>qck
Encourage the Government by every means in your power to facilitate and encourage farming in th* province, en- «ourage the cities to grant privileges, a* y«u will find a prosperous farming c«»mmunity means a prosperous city and country.
Farm* ra iha*Ml* province are , beret by pe«-uliar c3hditlon* and are rent by disseiiNion anil strife.

Organized producers means the eliminating of much expense in the cities to the consumers and absolutely assures fairer prices all round. Give all the support you possibly can to the farmer* and you must benefit.

TALCUMThe beet known and
most used baby talcum in the world.
"With its hideous massacre of innocents the East End raid has stamped on the national mind a sense of horror and wrath which will outlast mo*t of the Impressions of- the war. Tiie mur- d»T and mutilation of little children and babes ar«»us«* in the vast majority *4 our ptsfpjv absolute determination that these things must in* I*»ll«»w- e«l by a punlshm *nt .w hich will make Germany shtidil* r. A w eek ago we would have said that public opinion wbis rather undecided “aboat r» prisais —that, In spite of the strong, feeling f«»r them* there w as |e*rliaps a wavering majority against. It Is not so now. The national m|,nd. in its well-known manner, has hardened In a moment, and when It harden* it doe*, not easily cliange. There is an overwhelming and almost^ universal «lemaml f«ff* reprisal* on a m ale which shall prevent further devil’s work of the same kind. This is no merely revengeful feeling. It Is inspired by a Just and unsparing wrath which does credit to the clean instinct* of our. people.
"Abhorrence of cruelty ami bullying I* one of the strongest characteristics of their nature.-.They hate the torture of autmals. Th«*y lament the ghastly war slaughter of grow n men. Hut when children are but -hered and maimed— when i«»or neuhers shufTle out of the slums to fimt their little one* who went <,uf smiling in th»1' morning dead ami torn nnd lacerated <»n {he schoolroom ftoor-rthati plain m* n an«l women feel som'-tlfing which Is as neuf, to thj anger of God. JM human ..Jf arta .can come. Theft Is a demand that something shall « ha-ppen for this. The demand Is right. It spring* not from what is base, but from what ts most" silcretl in our nature; There ts a public conviction that any conf» ssi.>n of Inj- potenc»- would he not only »ham»*ful lui wicked that it « ujl »»fUK U«v-» ss.«ri. s to the futuic rnurd»*f »»f other children, perhupk of "Ui". own
What hoùsohpid ht T.ondoh knows upon whom the lot may next full? We have iutd a certain inspect fore the feeling against reprisals w{ihh hitherto exited. It was" not Very logical nor \Vry s«*und..

"While there are s<«m*‘ feelings about reprisals whl««h we shall always treat with lesjici t, no, matter how much we may differ from them, one argument Is altogether -contenu tlble. It Is said that tiie German* will alway . -.beat .us . _ at the hustness of retaliation. That is as untrue as Ignoble. We have the t« « hni« al and industrial pred<.mtnnnec.

Munition W«ukers’ Opulence In f.ne Worcestershire town I went
Into a shop to see what stocks of new potatoes had reachedthe retailers; tills was of course at the commencement of the season. I overheard this: How much are the young potatoes?—
2» per pound. Alright, put me up 4 pounds The man. wh«j was very shabbily attired, looked a( Ids pur chase, observed that there did not look much and , asked for' -■ -another four pounds. He put down a note for Jtl, took up his |x»tatoes, four shillings change and walked unconeeme<Hy out of the shop.*'
Another Instance was In a, public market; A man went In to buy a small piece «»f salmon He asked the price and was told Se M per pound. He mule no purchase A few minutes after, while the writer waa talking to the stall h'dder. a la bolt r with a child came up and askM the price of n niece of salmon to whb^h he imlnted. He was told Its. 10d: He said "wrap It up. It will Just do for our supper." meaning for himself .and the child.

j. a. Bland, the well known sweet pea grower, takes ex«'eptlon to a suggestion made in The T1m*a yesterday to the effe. t that there is a posslhility that Victoria might not be suited lo the growing of sw.-et pea seed. He says that he has beep groping serd^for B number of years, and when the seed Is true he finds that the plants come true every time. In some varieties that are not properly set there are always some that do not come true, but that p* the same whether from local Kr<>wa seed or Imported, and It is /bat hs tnhe In California as It Is here
In/order to emphasise hie point Mr. ijr&iul showed a Times representative
Around his garden on Richmond Aw and pointed out the rows of peas that were absolutely true to type even though several generations of the seed had been grown by him. There were gaps In other rows, and these represented the varieties that did not come true, the gaps being the places from which the false plants had been taken.
Mr. Bland Is enthusiastic over his hobby and he certainly has some beautiful flowers. Those that are for need are not watered and fertilized like the ones from which he picks his flowers. The former have to harden aft in order that Ujè seed may be firm.
While the pea growing Is to some extant a hobby with Mr Bland it Is a profitable one. as he sells some of the seed every year. Later when his own particular peas, the "Jimmie Bland" and others that he Is trying to (lx, are ready, he expects to find the hobby even more profitable than It Is to-day. At present the ’ Jimmie Bland" is not on the market. It still throws a few plants that are. not true to type, but every season a larger percentage cùme true and within a year or two he expects to have It registered.
