Canada comes first of all countries as a purchaser of stal- lions, and second only to Belgium as .a producer of mares. Canada’s Produce In Great Britain a producer of mares. I Butter '~mports Small. The Weddel Company’s Colonial! Dairy Produce Review states that: Canadian butter export was the’ smallest known since 1895. Three] years ago it reached highest level,: 15,154 tons. Last year it fell to 1,862l tons. The quality again showed an} improvement over the previous year,i and as refrigeration on board steam-g ers to the United Kingdom and on} landing wharves here is now perfect-f ly upoto-date, Canadian butter oughti to further improve in quality, and bring better prices in our markets. Some inferior quality, which yet comes, is due to damage caused by want of proper refrigeration arrange- ments before it is shipped, and the remainder to defects in its manufac- ture, which are avoidable if proper care be taken. In cheese there has been a steady decrease from Canada and United States. This decrease has given an opportunity to New Zealand to make up some of the deficiency. Imports from New Zealand have advanced in ten years from 5,870 tons to 13,152. Improvement in quality continues to be shown in the Canadian. Improved arrangements have added leargely to the better quality which now prevails in this article. Australia last year sent a small shipment of cheese to London, and the quality was very satisfactory. One shipment from New South Wales was of superior quality to the best Cana- dian, owing to it being made on the English cheddar principle and it ap- proached very closely to English con- ditions of manufacture in having the milking herd close to the factory door so.that the milk was always in sweet condition when it came under the .cheesemakers’ control. The advance made in Canadian was 9 shillings a cwt., (r 16.6 per cent. The average price for the past twelve months is 1:3 less than 1907.

Paton’s 1mg -~onnection with the Grand Trunk Railway, yet for the purposes of our story it is necessary that they should be again set forth for the information of all and sundry. Mr. P. was station agent at Harwood from 1877 to 1881, during which period the town was one of the largest lumbering centres in Canada. On the decline of the trafic he was transferred to Hastings, another busy point, where he remained from 1881 until 1893. In. the latter year his splendid record won further advance- ment, and he was given the import- ant position of agent at Lindsay, where he looked after the company's affairs with signal success until 1906, when he resigned after 30 years’ ser- vice in order to prepare for the launch- ing of the National School of Tele- graphy, of which he had long before seen the need. Corporations Are Not Ungrateful That “corporations have no souls” is an axiom frequently lIlPdc use of in press and elsewhere. No doubt much occurs to apparently justify the expression, but “an ounce of proof is worth a pound of assertion” any day, and this time the proof is inimica! to the axiom above quoted. It is our pleasant mission to supply the re- butting testimony, as r‘oIIOWSf AT LEAST THAT Is THE OPINION OF MR. ALEX. PATON, FOR- MER G.T.R. AGENT. Now comes the really pleasant part of the story. Some’ few weeks ago Mr. Paton had occasion to apply to Mr. W. E. Davis, of Montreal, Pas- senger Traflic Manager of the Grand Trunk, for a railway pass, having oc- casion _to make a journey of some length. The reply ‘to the Davis letter arrived a few days later in the form of a communication ‘rom Mr. Logan, assistant to the, 2nd Vice-President, informing Mr. Paton that General Manager Hay hard cmfirmer the re- commendation of Traffic Manager Davis that Mr. A.1ex Paton “be excus- ed from paying fares on any part of the Grand Trunk system in future in recognition of his unblemished record as a servant cf the Company for 30 years, and in special recognition of same, that Mrs. Paton be also allow- ed free transportation.” Surely the above mnstitutes a grac- ious action on the part oi the Come pany, and indicates that Mr. Paton stands high in the esteem of the mans agement. vietiwa‘ fer dmkgnness in Qqngda. has; mm man» doubled‘ The petition! dwamlimm It Ottawa ii madw mg athgv demmlinm mwuhgm the emu: 3 It 15‘ “m9 161' a abuse Isn‘t It Awful? _ (Mammal Gama) , .

Mr. Irvine was a highly respected citizen, and the family have the sympathy of the entire community in their sad be- reavement.

Mr. Johnson had just retired. and hearing a crash went out to the barn to find the roof had fallen in. The barn Was well filled with grain, but very ‘ittle damage was done.
