It ‘has been recognized that agmicul!â€" ture is vital to the permanent proâ€" cress of the district, and that the deâ€" velopment of agriculture and the benefittinge of settlers mean added convenience and assistance to the two outstanding industries specially upâ€" held. Years ago these newspapers joined the â€" journals published _ for more exclusively agricultural constiâ€" tuencies in advocating measures for the advancement of agriculture in the North. There was a general belief held that settlement of the North Land would receive a noteworthy imâ€" petus if the truth about the country were known,â€"if its produce could be exhibited so as to refute the false ideas men like [Peter Smith, for instance.â€" In the line of publicity for North‘ Land agriculture, the value of the exhibits from this area at the National Exhibition in Toronto was «an arallyv â€" 4annreriated." as wvere also North‘ Land agriculture, the value oi the exhibits from this area at the National Exhibition in Toronto was senerally appreciated, as were also the handicaps under which the exhiâ€" biting was _ done. One partlcular drawback was the building~ reserved for Northern Ontario at the Nationai Exhibition. Eventually, the matter was taken up. by the Associated Boards of Trade, and it is interesting to note that progress has been made, thoush Abt reported at‘the last meetâ€" ing of the Associated Boards. In reference to the matter The New Lisâ€" keard Speaker last week said :â€" vears ago the New ‘"Several years ago the New Jasâ€" keard Speaker stated that the log building in which place the exhihits from Northern Ontario did not fairly represent conditions in the Northland. We gave our reasons clearly, and, it appears, so convincingly, that the Asgâ€" sociated ‘Boards of Trade for Temiskâ€" aming followed up our criticism by appointing a committee to look into the matter, and later, a second comâ€" mittee was appointed to get space for éa. separate exhibit for Temiskaming. At the last meeting,of the Board disâ€" appointment was expressed because this committee had not ‘*reported proâ€" ‘However, the gloomyâ€"looking log building is a thing of the past, and this year Northern Ontario exhibits are being viéwed in the new building called, we hbelieve, ‘‘The Coliseum." The space given to the exhibits is 8(0 f‘t. x 20 ft., the lay out is fine, and the exhibit attracts â€" much attention. While we were inspecting this exhibit, several Americans called, and some of them awere surprised that there was such a large tract of Agricultural land in Ontario, as shown by the disâ€" play. ‘The impression â€"__ obtains amongest many people that Canada‘s undeveloped land lies in Western Canâ€" ada. "The visitor when he first glances over samples of our Northern proâ€" duets is likely to think that Muskoka © 1924 ser_int‘s Fearume Service, InCc4 puts it all over the other districts. Muskoka‘s **Potato Wizard,"" and exâ€" pert florist, Mr. Wmm Nasmith, is reâ€"| sponsible for this: He fixed up some Muskoka sheaves of grain so beautiâ€" fully that it was but fair that these sheaves should be given a prominent place, and it was also but fair that the visitor should be told tkat this grain was ‘‘grown in Muskoka.‘‘ ‘‘The northern districts are all repâ€" resented in the same apartment, but each exhibit bears the name of the grower, and the district to which it belongs, and hence we think there as no reason for complaint or jealousy. True, the Clay Belt (Temiskaming), is unlike many other districts in this, that in our agricultural belt we have many thousands of acres of land all alike. â€" One farm‘is as good as another in fifty mile stretches. **As for the eghibits, some excelled in one variety, while others excelled in some other variety. Temiskaming‘s Marquis wheat however was the best in the Northern display, but in other respects we but ‘‘hold our own.‘"‘ The display throughout was a good one, and one for a Northerner to be proud of. We do not remember having askâ€" ed the Department of Agriculture to be at the expense of giving separate space to a Temiskaming exhibit.. We know that there are those‘who have desired this. However, this is more than we have a right to expect. The Minister of Agriculture should treat all districts altke. â€" If we of the Clay Belt want to have an exhibit of our own we must pay for it. If enterprisâ€" ing citizens of other districts take pains to beat us in their preparation of their sheaves of grain, then let them enjoy the fruits of their labor. ‘‘The section devoted to Northern Ontario exhibits is to ‘be a fixture: A. great deal of pains has been taken in its preparation. Fiftyâ€"one large picâ€" tures featuring seenes in every disâ€" trict, are to be seen along the upper part of the back wall. These pictures cover the 80 foot space, while porâ€" traits of Premier Ferguson and Minisâ€" ter of Agriculture, Martin, are also in evidence mutely asking the spectators whatâ€"he . thistksâ€"ofâ€"Ontario‘s Hinterâ€" land. ‘*A*s soon as the fair celoses these exhibits will be taken to the Ottawa exhibition. ‘""In the Ontario building there are many other .exhibits from the north in minerals ana farm products, and amonest these there is a display from the New TLiskeard Government Demâ€" onstration Farm sent down by Superâ€" intendent Laidlaw. â€" Mr. \Nixon, repâ€" resenting the Department of Agriculâ€" ture, furnished the Temiskaming exâ€" hibit in the Northern Ontario disâ€" play.‘" NEW PROVINCIAL POLICE POST AT ISLAND PALLS Last week The Advance made ret’er-' ence to a despatch from Toronto inâ€" dicating that a new Provincial Police Post was being established at Iroquois Falls. This was what the despatches stated, but evidently they were in error, *‘Troquois Falls"‘*. beihg menâ€" tioned instead of ‘‘Island â€" Falls.""‘ The new Provincial Police Post is beâ€" ing established at Island Falls where some such service is desirable. Isâ€" land Falls is the terminal of the T. N.0O. extenrsion north of Cochrane and the railway transportation point for the Hollinger power development work on the Abitibi. A community of some proportions has grown up at this point and with the growth of the place, the need for official represenâ€" tatives of law may reasonably be exâ€" pected.
