GERMAN EMIGRATION LUXURIES OF TO CANADA AERIAL JOURNEY Society Formed in Germany to Help Teutons Settle in Dominion. A despatch from London says: British Government Gives Capi talists a Trip in R-.33. A despatch from London says:â€" The airship R-33, sister ship of the Germany, having had little success ^-'4. returned on Thursday ni,;ht against the Canadians on the western front, is going in for peaceful pene- tration of the Dominion itself after battlefields from a tour to Amsterdam and P.-^ris and over the French and Belgian the war. A society for the encour- go- ment of Teutonic emigration to Can- ada has been formed in Berlin, and its secretary has naively written to the Canadian immigration authorities in London to a.sk when operations may begin. Until the peace treaty was ratified by the Canadian Parliament, German immigration was forbidden as was all other Continental immigra- tion, in fact The ten .i^assengcra on the R-33 when she left Palham included (Jen. Maitland, representative of the Air Ministry; a French attache. Holt Thomas, benjamin (Juinncss, .Tames Dunn, and other capitalists, whom the British Government hope to interest in the commercial siib of aviation as possible purchasers of airships. The menu aloft consisted of a broakfa.st of eggs and bacon, hot That a large influx of German emi- 1 '^"''â- 'â- e «"^ te» with toast.

The meals were served from a small electric stove. For the capi- talists making the voyage, extra wants them. Tho same is also true[ '''anl^cts and coats wore provided. of France, and more still, of Belgium. Holland and Scandinavia also offer many prospective settlers. Such im- migration would no doubt 1)0 encour- aged, but a delicate question that Canada will have to consider will bo that of the recruitment of her cibi/en- ship from Southern Europe, which also, snys Sir George Brown, promis- es to be very large. CANADA WILL INVITE BELGIAN KIN(; AND QUEEN A despatch from Ottawa says: â€" The Canadian Government will extend an official invitation to the King and Qu<'en of Belgium to visit Canada inci- dent to their forthcoming visit In the United States. *â-  There are 782 varieties of Arctic flowcr.s that have but two colors whito and yellow. Nov. 11 League of Nations Day In Itrllain and the Dominions A despatch from London says: â€" David Lloyd Georgo, tho British Prlmo Minister, In a speech to be de- livered in the Guildhall, October 1st, on behalf of the League of Nations Union, will inaugurate a camjiaign which is to be carried on throughout tho country during the .\utuinn, end- ing November 11th, with demonstra- tions in every town and city In the United Kingdom. It is expected by the promoters that tho movement will extend to other countries, and that November Iltli will be made League of Nations Day, which also ii "Armis- tice Day." Mirth is a piiying investment- -be- cause its stock is never watered with tears of re/(:ret. PRIMCE RIDES BUOdNG BRONCO Cheered to the Echo hy the Cow- boys and Cowgirls of Saskatoon. A despatch from .Saskatoon says:^ For the firat time in the history of Saskatoon, the Heir to the Thrcne visited here on Thursdriy and was ac- corded a welcome v/hich has never be- fore been witnessed in the district, fully 50,000 people, farmer.i from th« districts for miles around, journeying in to pay. honor to their future King. After being publi'r'.y received bj Mayor F. R. McMillan, his Royal Highness decorated a number of re^ turned soldiers with medals for gr«l- lantry. A visit was ti-en paid to the Univerjity, where an address was de- livered by Sir Frederick Haultain. Again passing through cheering crowds, his Royal Highness wai driven out to the Exhibition grounds, where he witnessed a stampede, some- thing which the Prince had never se^i: before. A tremendous cheer from fully 20,000 people greeted the Roya! party, who witnessed the performanct from an espcially erected Royal box. Riding bucking bronchos, steer throw- in;?, wild horse riding, lassooing wild horses, all kept the Prince greatly in- terested. When tho performance was over and his Royal Highness was about to leave, he asked permission to ride one. of the -bucking broncos, and, amid the wildest cheers, the Prince rode down the track, surround- ed by cowboys and cowgirls. He then had his photograph taken on tha horse, surrounded by his bodyguard. ORGANIZE Farmers' CLUB IN TORONTO THE HOUR IS STRIKING. The hour is striking. The day If the "Homo Comiaunity" is here. The same hour that strikes tho doom of the congested nu-tropolis strikes also the nntion-wlde slogan of "Back to the Home Town." The hour Is strik- ing. And the people of ten thousand communities know it. YOU cinnot fail to hear it And you will do YOUR sliare In helping to usher in the greatest era of prosperity this continent has seen. YOUR co-operation is needed to make this prosperity coi:i!)l<'teâ€" to make it go ALL the way round. Make Cheap Woods Durable. Danish scientists have perfettod a process for treating cheaper woods producing the effoct of several yoars that makes them more durable, chemical action In twenty-four hours of drying. Another source of bearing knock is' the flanges of the crank shaft bear- ings, which are flattened by crank I shaft thrust. In this case it does not ' pay to try to fix the old bearing flanges. It is better to get a new bearing. H.R.H. Took a Flyer in Oats; Lost S375 on Grain Exchange A dcspp.t..'h from Tv'innipeg says: â€" While watching the large bla "kboards with their hundreds of ever-changing figures, and listening to the bedlam of the many traders endeavoring to sell on the Grain Exchange. H.R.H. the Prince of Wales purchased 50,000 bushels of October oats at 8314 cents. Immediatelv the deal was closed, the market fell off Vb cent to 83%, Oc- tober delivery eventually closing at 82V4. making a drop of % tent after the Prince had made his speculation, which proved a temporary loss to him- self of $37.*). The broker who sold to i His Royal Highness promised him a profit of at least $2,P00 on hia return from the West. And So On. The fond parents had striven valiant- ly for somo considerable time to teach little Effle to say tho letter "A.'* At last the father, giving up in disgust, left the room. "Now, why don't you say 'A'?" In- quired the mother, as she took the child upon her knee. "Because after I say 'A' father and you will expect me to say 'B.' " was the imexpected reply. rilUN ON THK HOSK. The wise use of cover crops w^ill conserve the fertility of the soil and better its physical condition in many cases. B\-ery farmer should consider their possible advantiigcous use at this season of the year. E\-ery cent we pay out for feed for creatures that do not give it back in , good, honest service, is so much to- 1 ward the fare on the road to the poor j house. I Institution Similar to One in London, England, Being: Established. A despatch from Toronto says: â€" â-  Farmers, live stock m^n and those connected with allied industries are to have a club in Toronto. It io to be located in the centre of the city, and is to be known as the Yeoman's Club. It is to be conducted along the lines which have made a suc- cess of the Farmer.^' Club, in London, England, which is the centre that farmers and breeders in England, as well as from all parts of the world, when i.i the ijld country, gravitate to. Plans are at present under way to form the company, which will be capitalized at $50,000. There is to be $10,000 of. paid-up stock, and up- wards of $4,000 worth of stock has already been sold. Shares are to be $25 e.^.ch, and no member will be per- mitted to purchase more than five shares. Leaders in the aipricultural life of the Province have felt for some time the need of such a club in tho capital of Ontario, v.hijh will be a social as well as a business centre. It is intended tliat it shall have a com- plete agricultural library, including herd and crop books, a committee room for the use of its members, and a lounge room. As far as is known the only club of the ;<ind a'lyv.bere in the w;)vld is the one in London, England. It has proven h real boon, not only as a social centre, but it is the meetin;j place for live stock buyers and sellers from all parts of the world. GIVES ORGAN RECITAL ON EIGHTIETH BIRTHDAY A despatch from Sandy, Bedford- shire, says; â€" Mrs. Mary Kemp, thj oldest woman church organist in Eng- land, and probably in the world, cele- brated her eigh'tieth birthday by giv- ing a recital in the parish church. Her fingers are flexible, her eye- sight marvellous, and she played the great masters with the vim of a wo- man half her age. Her grandfalUer, Sara Taylor, tha village saddler and harnessmaker, taught singing to the countryside, also the clarionet an<l 'cello. Sho was a favorite pupil of James Turle. late organist and choirmaster of West- minster Abbey.
