Western Canada trade conditions and consumer sales, however, are/predicated to an important extent upon crop returns and actual indications of buying trend cannot be obtained until a relatively late season. The great crop which has been harvestâ€" ed in the Prairie Provinces this year is now working its effect in the westâ€" ern trade situation. l Year 1928 to Make New Record for DeForestâ€"Crosley Radios A bumper crop in the great Western Provinces of Canada is making 1928 a bumper sales year in that territory according to Mr. D.

O. Pine North Timmins SAUVES PHARMACY Mr. Pollitt reports that the DeForest Crosley plant on Carlaw avenue has found it necessary to supplement its regular day schedule of production with night operation, and yet in spite of this increase, is unable to keep pace with the volume of orders that is being received from the trade which it Supâ€" plies. He intimates that other manuâ€" facturers are oncountering similar,’ The increased demand for radio reâ€" ceivers is coming not only from people who are buying their first radio, but from those who already have used batâ€" tery operated models. This year the batteryless set is definitely establishâ€" ed, not only as a more convenient but with its new developments, a more effiâ€" cient product, and a large number o> battery set owners are rapidly replacâ€" ing their old receivers with better proâ€" ducts that are available this year. | |\ _ With public consumption of radio sets showing unprecedentedliy keon activity, wholesalers report theor wareâ€" house floors practically clean and the dealers are unable to get delivery of the exceptionally large orders that are ! being placed. This condition, which is also being experienced in radio in Eastern Canaâ€" da, is one that bears out the early préâ€" dictions made by informed members of the radio industry. The combined inâ€" fluences of a very definitely improved type of merchandise and an economic situation of, constantly increasing prosperity for the Dominign has reâ€" sulted in an increased demand of such proportion that radio manufacturers are finding it almost impossible to step up production to meet the greater consumption that is prevalent. | ' and Pacific Provinces. In previous years per capita consumypâ€" tion of radio in the Western Provinces has lagged very considerably behind that of Eastern Canada. This year, | however, Mr. Pollitt indicated that a | very important change is taking place in this situation. Early in the season many of the outstanding members of the radio trade in the West preâ€" dicted sales increases in their territory for this year and early | orders of new merchandise of most, | manufacturers were larger than thcsef | of previous years. Since that time| | constant shipments of important | volume have been going from eastern | factories to Winnipeg and West.

Unprecedented activity and interest in radio is being evinced not just in isolated communities but uniformly all across the Dominion. conditions. The DeForest Crosley sales, he points cut, are to date fifty per. cent. ahead this time last year, and by the end of October ten months‘ sales will have passed the total for the full twelve months of 1927. | _ "Declaring that he is absolutely opâ€" |posed â€"_to anything that savors, even lremotely, of the dole system, A. F. ;Kenning. M. L. A., for the district of |Temiskaming, in an interview with the Northern News on Thursday last stated he was convinced that the time had come when the government must "seriously consider what is to be done | to help the farmer settlers of the north |country over the winter. I, ‘‘Never, said Mr. Kenning, has there been such a wet season in the knowâ€" ledge of the oldest resident of this north country. As a result of the alâ€" most continuous rains, which have preâ€" vented them getting in their crops the farmers have lost practically their whole year‘s work. Many of them have lost their grain, hay and potato crops owing to the impossibility of getting on the land to save them. Some have been successful in saving part of their crops, but most of their grain and hay is still in the fields, some of it stooked but rotting in the wet. ‘"Not only has the persissent wet weather done serfous injury to the farmers, it has also very seriously afâ€" fected the roads of the north, even Last week The Advance suggested lthat all in the North give hearty supâ€" port to the efforts being made by Mr. A. F. Kenning, M.P.P., in regard to relief for the settlers whose crops proved a failure this year. This supâ€" port has been given in very wholeâ€" hearted way. The Northern News, of Kirkland Lake, last week gave conâ€" siderable prominence to the plans of Mr. Kenning.

Howard G. Ferguson, that the governâ€" _ment make immediate plans to repair the damage done to the roads in the north by rain by initiating a winter gravelling of them. This work should be started as soon as the frost is in the ground. By undertaking this work the government would provide work for the farmers and give them an opportunity of earning money to meet the needs of their families and the feeding of as much liveâ€"stock as possible. ' I am so convinced that the future welifare of New Ontario depends on keeping these farmers on the land that We have induced these farmers to settle in the north, and they are preâ€" pared to stay here if given a helping hand at this time. If we do not keep them contented we cannot be surâ€" prised if they pack up and get out. They do not want charity, but they do want an opportunity of earning enough to tide them over an exceptionally bad season.

HALLOWE‘EN RESULTED IN FINES FOR COBALT BOYS Timmins this year enjoyed what may be termed the best Hallowe‘en in years. The Community Hallowe‘en event here gave the youngsters a good time, and in addition the fact that the boys played the game meant that merchants and householders escaped the usual annoyances and damage of the occaâ€" sion. The new style of Hallowe‘en in Timmins was very acceptable. Apâ€" parently Cobalt had the old kind of Hallowe‘en. According to the desâ€" patches, the Hallowe‘en escapades of three 16â€"yearâ€"old youths from Mileage 104, cost the parents of George Last, Thomas Davies, and William Fleming, $25 and costs when the trio were found guilty, in police court at Cobalt on Saturday, of assaulting Mark Perrier. John Emden was acquitted on the same charge. Perrier, whose face was bruised and scratched, claimed his conâ€" dition was due to the boys having struck him with stones, and his fatherâ€"inâ€"law, A. Mayer, identified the three who subsequently were fined as having taken part in the alleged asâ€" sault. For the boys, it was contended that Perrier, after his house had been stoned by other children, had chasâ€" tized some of them with a whip and that they had merely defended themâ€" selves by restraining Perrier. "That this council request the Proâ€" vincial Government through the Deâ€" partment of Northern Development to seriously â€" consider undertaking an intensive programme of gravelling the trunk roads in the Temiskaming and Cochrane Districts to permit the emâ€" ployment of the teams of settlers and farmers in improving the roads and thereby furnishing work for the setâ€" lers of the districts who have been seriously affected by the crop failure due to the severe and sustained wet weather." Following some discussion Councillor Max Kaplan moved, seconded by Councillor George Fairbairn, the folâ€" lowing resolution be sent to the govâ€" ernment and heads of departments concerned : Referring to a conversation he had had with A. F. Kenning, M. L. A., Reeve Carter at the special meeting of council held on Friday night suggestâ€" ed that council should back up the efforts being made by Mr. Kenâ€" ning to get the Provincial government to provide work for the farmers and settlers in the north during the comâ€" ing winter. He briefly referred to the serious position in which these men find themselves as a result of the unâ€" precedently wet summer and fall, and the fact that unless some opportunity is given them of earning some money their families will suffer serious hardâ€" ship during the coming winter. !to retain his manhood, maintain his |family and stock and perhaps have a little in hand to start the next season with, and it would mean the hauling .of gravel to where it is now very badly needed at a time when hauling can be most easily done. "Concluding Mr. Kenning declared that there must be no halfâ€"hearted measures. The urgency is such that an â€"orderâ€"inâ€"council authorizing the work will be required. The question |or cost must be a secondary matter, if the north country is to be made what is should and can be made." The Teck Township councu also urgâ€" ed action by the Government in the matter.
