CHERRIES` PINEAPPLE ORANGES P 133 Dunlap St. Allandale Pay Y0`-1 | The possibility -of an unmarket- ` ablesurplus of wheat in all the_ prin- cipal wheat-growing countries is in- dicated by the efforts that are being made to protect the farmers from nancial loss t-his year. Already Sas- katchewan and Alberta _have arrang- ,led their wheat pools, and Manitoba is lining up wi-th them in preparation for the same marketing plan. In the United States the government is be- ing urged to provide -a wheat pur- chasing commission with $500,000,- 000. `capital stock andito fix a price ` of $1.50 a bushel. -To x and main- tain a set price for wheat is no easy thing, yet` it.would be a good thing for Canada. If the farmers could be assured _of $1.50 a bushel for all the wheat they could grow it would not only be ;a great benefit to agriculture but would also `have a wonderfully stabilizing effect upon industry. In Australia the farmers are being guar- anteed 89 cents a bushel as a form ` of assistance. . While undoubtedly a portions of Europe are in- need -of ` wheat, yet they are not indicating .~ any haste .to purchase foreign sup- ' plies. Offers of loans by the United ` States for the purchase of U. _S. 1 wheat _supplie_s have been rejected; the governments preferring to pur- " chase -where -and when they like. In 1 fact, the decreased purchas'es of. Eur- : | Diversion of water from the Great lLakes, totalling as much as the vol- ume which now goes over the Amer- ican Falls at Niagara, by the. city of Chicago for its sewerage disposal `scheme is developing a situation un- lparalleled in the history of _interna- }tional water disputes. Chicago has `ignored bo_th international and Unit-' ed` States rulings on `the subject and plans to go ahead-and double the cap- . acity of her illegal scheme. The wa- lter diverted, which eventually finds `its way into the Mississippi, is suf- H cient to develop 500,000 horse pow- er annually if returned to the Great Lakes, and the diversion affects ship-` ping facilities on the Great Lakes and all the rivers owingfrom them, both in Canada and the United 1 States". Sir Adam Beck, chairman of the Ontario Hydro Electric Commis- sion, has issued a vigorous statement on the situation, defending.Ontario s position -in the matter, Permanent diversion` of this power would be `a serious blow to Ontario s hvdro elec- tric power development. The diver- sion of any water from international waterways must have international` sanction, and Chicago has never had sanction to interfere with the lake [levels in any way. That the idea of community sing- ing' has found great favor withthe people of Barrie was evident last Friday night when such a large num- ,ber gathered in Queen's Park and took part in the programme arrang- ed by the Kiwanis Club. There was no doubt the people enjoyed them- selves. One `had but to walk around among the crowd and observe the interest being taken and the hearty manner in which young and old `were .g joining in the songs to be satised of this. Affairs of this kind do much to develop the community spirit and should be encouraged. A three months course in agricul- ture and home economics will be held in -Barrie _from Nov. 27 to Mar. 2. `Last year it was held in Orillia and the town council supplied the lecture rooms free of charge. ,The Barrie council might considersuch a prop- osition favorably, as the presence here for three months of students and professors will mean much to the town. ` ' ada s pulp and _paper industry will be In order to save their own pulp- wood supplies, American paper com- panies are closing down nearly all cutting operations in their own coun-` material from Canada. Striking ev- idence of this is seen in the fact that` the exports of raw wood from Can- ada increased 150 per cent. in June. .If this is permitted to continue, Can-` |try and seeking to draw their.raw.. jeopardized. Ca_na_da cannot afford to have this industry thus crippled, it being one of the most important |in 'the.Dominion, with. a total cap- italization of $381,000,000 and an output of $155,000,000,annuall_v. An embargo on pulpwood is urgently re- quired. ' A Twenty-ve million cars in use on this continentten years ;hence is the prediction of an_American automot- ive authority. Even at that there won't be many more `on Dunlop St. than are now seen on an average Saturday night, for_the simple rear lson that there won't` be room. AUCTION SALE} Bandits visited a Detroit roadhouse on Sunday and held up men and ;wo- men for $20,000 in cash and jewels. Persons who have so little regard for decency as to be dancing in a. road; house at three o'clock Sunday morn- ing don't deserve much sympathy. No man ought to make thejeame! mistake twice - consideringe how' many people there are to :tell him [about it.

WHARFAREPAIRS Repairs are'_being made. to the wharf at Big Bay Point, with Frank Moberley in charge for the-Dept. of Public Works. The ragged end is being taken off, which shortens the wharf by 100 feet. A tug and a steam crane were brought out-from the Ramsay McDonald outt at Wash- ago for the purpose of raising the wreck of the `steamer Otonobee sunk alongside the wharf. It was found that the -crane could not raise the wreckage and explosives will be used to move it. " ' vutvuvuvu yuvyav Vvuuu pxuuacua The job of an editor is to edit.

An ;it0r 8 Job Sault Star: An extremely .small fraction of the political propaganda unloaded on newspapers is ever used. Every newspaper waste basket is choked with it. That shows the news- papers estimate of it. If the public wanted it, the men who have to wor- ry to make ends meet in newspaper offices would grab it gladly. But the "cold fact is that the public have come to resent_ much spacebeing given to political dope and stuff merely de- signed to advertise politicians, no matter howvworthy they may be. `D ` LL` I1v\vc1v\nn .. ..................... ... .......... ......

Talkes No Risks I 7 Parry Sound Canadian`: After try-l ing the Dominion Chautauqua out for three years in Parry Sound, it, has been found impossible to secure` the sufficient number of guarantors. to continue holding it. This has oc- curred not through any lack of ap- preciation of the quality or character of entertainment but owing to a growing feeling that the organiza- tion demands too_ much for its invest- ment and is unwilling to take the !same risks as any ordinary businessi concern. The Chautauqua Bureau, -takes no chances and does very little local work in connection with putting the concerts on, most of the revenue - Sound reap little advantage from andl will never see again.

Welland Telegraph`: While the: primary purpose of the `wheat pool; is to directly benet the farmers of the province, the agricultural and in-l dustrial workers of the East are likewise indirectly interested and will benefit. by the successful consumma- tion of the plan`, for increased pros- perity of the West, due to a better. price for its staple crop, means an in- creased demand for they manufactur- ed products of Eastern -Canada and a larger market for the produce ofl its farms which will develop among the industrial workers here through more regular employment and en- hanced earnings. Nor is the interest and benefit confined to these two classes alone; all parts of the social structure must and will participate therein, for we are all of us and each of us but cogs in the machinery of the great mill from which emerges prosperity or the reverse. ` Blue Sky Law Needed ' Oshawa Reformer: Last year in the United States, wild cat promoters and sellers of spurious stocks mulch- ed the public out of $600,000,000. It's time Uncle Sam had a blue sky` law. 0 `which has been excluded from thel lope in the markets of the United States is drawing _forth. condemna-, tion there of the Fordney tariff, which is held responsible for a stead-~ ! ily . dwindling export trade. Trade reports `show that the Canadian wheat `United States by the Fordney tariff `has displaced U.S. wheat in European markets, the States having `exported 48,000,000 bushels of wheat less dur- ing the past year -than in the year preceding it.` The story of Canadian our exports reads in the same way. vxc ~14 >x< m *3 AMONG EXCHANGES g >X0X0X<.>X<>X<>X0X4 >X0X0X0X0X<>X0I0I< Work Well Done l The Patron Saint of Nova Scotia ' was Joseph Howe-a man _with- a strong personality, a high character 3 and a capacity for ring the popular imagination unequalled amongst his. contemporaries. He was brought ` out. as it were, at the age of 31 by l a libel suivt; addressing the jury on _ " his own behalf in `a speech that oc- ' cupied over six hours, the young ad- ' vocate took Halifax by storm. It was realized that he was a new power- one the community had never dream- ed of. It is said he~never excelled this- speech in after life for its ele- lvation of thought and beauty of dic- `ltion. A seat in the Legislature fol-A Ilowed, and Howe then entered upon the great` struggle for responsible `government with which his name is specially connected and with the part he` later played as one of the Fathers of Confederation. Howe made a remarkable prediction as far lback as 1851, showing his keen fore- lsight, when he outlined the Canadian IPacic Railway. `-`There are men ` lsitting in this room tonight who will ` [live to hear the scream of the loco- - |motive in the Passes of the `Rocky lMountains and who will make the 4 journey from Halifax to the Pacific F. lalone in ve or six days. When he ', `uttered this prediction, there were ` !not a dozen miles of railway in all I lCanada; today there are 40,000. A ` lmonument to his memory occupies la prominent position in Halifax.

The Weather Man of Canada is admittedly an important personage, for in this case he happens to be-Sir, zRobert Frederic Stupart, 'a d-irector of the Meteorological Service of Can- . ada, with his headquartersiin the ob- . servatory _at Toronto. He entered this department of the public service in 1872 and has therefore the hon- orable record of over half -a century to his credit. Previous to that time he had served an apprenticeship more exacting thanithe present day calls for. At one time he had charge `of a station in Hudson Straitsfor the `study of their navigation-. His honors and distinctions are many: Fellow of the Royal Society of Can- iiada, President or Member of the Royal Astronomical Society of Can- ada and the Canadian Institute, and a member of the International Met- eorological Committee of 1907, his ,high gifts in his chosen profession ;have long been recognized. In 1916 *an additional honor came to him of |Knight Bachelor. Sir Robert Fred- eric Stupart, or Old Probs, as he -isnicknamed. is a credit to this Can- adian home-land and an example as a high type of civil servant. ouk CANADIAN WHO S WHO r`V &wa&mawmm$mmw& SIR ROBERT STUPART The undersigned has received ini structions from I Brief Bi'og raphical Sketches of Some of the Dominion : Big Men { Who Have Passed Away. _J`os1;PH HOWE OUR SERVICEON ANY PURCHASE DOES NOT END TILL YOU HAVE.
