Britain's Commercial Supremacy--The Need 0f a Fast Atlantic Service, Toronto, June 5 The conference of Usnadian boards of trade resumed work promptly st ten o'doek this morning, the first resolution being tnat of E. V, Roy, Montréal Chamber Pe Commerce; in favor of appeint- ment of Canadian commercial agents in the chief cities of the oki and new world." Mr. Roy said Canada had only thirteen agents abroad, seven of eit emigration agents. Cun ada should. have power to inaugurate ot ho py & system corresponding to the consuls other nations. _ 8. T. Duclos, St. Hyacinthe, sscond- ped, and ¥. X. Perrault, Gaspe, told of the great value to the United States of their three hundred consular agents 'abroad, most of whom served with out salary. " * Robert Munro, Monts Tonmertid! "agents wer salary, Mr. Saunders, Goderich, also urged that good salaries be paid to competent 'men. The resolution was unanimously, G, 8. Campbell, Halifax, moved a resolution that as the commercial su- premacy of Great Britain might be unfavorably affected by the American stemmship trust, it was the duty of Canada to asst in retaining for Great Britain this maritime supremacy that in the C.P.R. Canada possesses ope transcontinental line, while an- Sher, now. under construction, will + cdimect the Atlantic and Pacific, and that in the trade contest between Lireat Britain and. foreign coun trign efficient steamship services counties efficiont steamship services on the Atlantic and Pacific is of ur gent "importance. The establishment of a fast Atlantic line from Canada to Great Britain would increase trade, and bind the floret parts of the empire more closely together.

De. Wolfe, Montreal, seconded the resolution, and at his suggestion an addition was made calling for, a government subsidy of adequate di mensions.

Inno sphere of petivity of a pseudo re de. character x thers wor: fraud practiced than in the advertising field. The man who sells advertising isin no essential respect different from the man who sells dothes, groceries or ather commodities. Still, he is given a' greater latitude and is endowed with privileges denied to others. The mer- chant canbol wrap up two ponds of sugar, sell it for six, and then = pre. itimaoy of the transaction. The newspaper publisher can do that very thing. A wewspaper is valuable as an ad vertising medium in proportion to ie number of re . Broadly speaking, a paper that has 10.000 circulation is worth twice a» much as an advertis- ing medium as » paper that has only 5,000 eivenlation. When a man pays for: advertising he fs not buying the privilege of puttipg ink on so much white space but is paying for the privilege of addressing an alleged number of subscribers, He should be accorded the privilege of ascertaining whether he is getting value for his money. But he is not. The publisher claiming to sell 10,000 circulation can sed! 5,000 or 2000 and refuse a sworn statement and admission to the press room. This peculiar condition has proved an irresistible temptation to scores of publishers to lie concerning circulation ond 0 acespt from advertisers the fruition of falsehood and fraud. It has prevented the advertiser from ascer- taining whether he has obtai value because ie patronizes severa he cannot well Njscover which is bring- ing' the returns. \'The privilege of the publisher robs th advertiser of his self-defense. It is Nhe duty of the state not ohly to guard the lives and liberty of citinens but to protect their property and to punish those who per- petrate fraud. The government has post office and bank, oil and milk in spectors. We have scale inspectors to prevent fraudulent weights and we should have newspaper inspectors to prevent fraudalent measures of adver tising. Every newspaper should be obliged to publish 4 sworn cireulation statement each month and newspgper inspectors should investigate the ad: vertising affairs of newspapers as the affairs of banks and post offices are investigated. - An arrangement of this character. would be hailed with joy by honest publishers, and, while guilty ones would wail, the system would be for the public good. Fraud should be uncloaked wherever found, : His Line Of Work. Visitor to Jail-Why are you here ? Prisoner (a pick et)--1 am here as a result of a moment of Bbstrac tiom, The Testing Of Father.

The report of Thomas Southworth, director of forestry, for 1900-1901, just published, gives a highly interesting presentation of the condition or the ! provigee a8 regards forest preserva j vion as the ~ result of the meastres adopted with a view to that object iby the liberal administration. In dealing with the é¥own lands they are | pursuing the judicious * policy of set- i ting apart large areas of timbered land unsuited for settlement as forest reserves, thus securing a constant sup- ply of timber for the future and pro- viding against the deterioration of climate and agwicultural fertility, which alwayé results from stripping the country' of its vegetation. An ac- count is given of. the reserves already set apart including the Temagami re serve of 1405000 ueres, containing the most valuahle tract of pine tim- ber dissovered in New Ontario, the Sibley reserve on the north shore of lake Superior of 45,000 acres, and the eastern reserve of 80.000 acres in the counties of Frontenac and Addington. There is also the Algonquin park which though not a forestry reserve Jropes serves the same purpose to a large extent. The establishment of these reserves and the extension of the fire ranging system by which the danger of fire is greatly lessened have greatly improved conditions with re- gard to the maintenance of forests in northern Ontario, As regards the settled and eultiva: ted. part of the province the outlook is not mearly so 'satisfactory. The lands of southern Ontario being near- lv all in the hands of private owners the government cannot adopt any ef- fective forestry measures on a large scale. The work of deforestation sti- mulated by the increased demand for timber for industrial purposes is pro- ceeding Very rapidly in many locali- ties especially in those containing the best agricultural land. Authorities on forestry usually fix the proportion of the total area.of a district which should remain timber covered in or der to secure favorable climatic con ditions and regulate the water supply ot twenty-five per cent. Twenty per cent. is regarded as the lowest per. centage to which the woodland acre age can be diminished without seri- ously endangering agricultural inter est. In the majority of counties the pro- portion has fallen much below this. To ascertain the oxtent to which clearing has been carried, Mr. South: worth undertook an investigation based on the figures furnished by the township clerks to the bureau of in dustries for the years 1896 and 1901, giving the acreage of each municipal ity' cleared and uncleared. A com parison of the two years showed that in the interval of five years the tim- Jrbered area in every county except two had decreased. The diminution was cs pecially noticeable in the western and midland sections of the province, the few localities in which a slight in crease was recorded being in the eastern part. Six eounties only had 'over twenty-five per cent. of wood land, all of which were in the east. Ten eountics had less than twenty-five per cent. and over twenty per cent. of woodland; sixteen counties had less than twenty per cent. and over ten per cént; and eleven counties had less than ten per cent. In the case of many townships the denudation had been even greater. A list of forty-four townships is given where the timber covered land is less than five per cent: of the total area.' The report points out that the country is begin ning to feel seriously the effects = of over clearance. "Farmers are mow noting the disadvantage of hav ing no forests to stop the sweep of the winds owihg to which the snow is blown off the fields in winter amd the moistiye quickly evaporated in the summer. while the melted snow and rain at all seasons runs rapidly off the surface, instead. of. being gradually absorbed into the soil." In the United States where the ques- tion bas been 'before the people for some time, active attempis have | cen made to counteract the Bi} by legisla: tion, In many states tracts main tained in timber are wholly or Jar tially exempt from local taxation® or bonuses given for tree planting. A summary is given of some of this legislation, which may perhaps be of service to our own public men in con sidering what ought to be done to save the woodlands of southern On tario. A" paper which offers some valuable suggestions to farmers on the man agement of their wood lot by W. N. Hutt is appended to the report. The matter is one of much interest, more especially to the farmers and the re port otight to be widely read.

To do good to the utmost limits of our capability is the first duty as it is the highest privilege of the christian, and in no way ¢an more real benefits be conferred upon mankind than ie making known far and wide a stive and certain' means of escape from that deadly malady --consumption. Where is the family that does not reckon am- ong those of its circle who have gone before ove victim of this direful dis ease? It chooses the fairest, the brightest, the best, and when a fond parent sees pale consumption stealing into his loved daughter's bosom, flush- ing her cheek, bleaching her skin, and reveling like a living worm upon her vitals, who would not hail as a de liverer sent from heaven ose bearing in his hand a remedy which would save © his darling from a yawning grave! The mother anxiously watch- ing the boy of her love, who at the threshold of manhood is seized by the destroyer and dragged with ruthless and unfinishing hand down to the tomb, would bless with all a mother's heart the power whieh could save him. Such a power existe--the 'Dr. Slocum treatment for consumption, which is an absolute remedy for consumption and all throat, chest and lung dis eases, also for loss of flesh and all conditions of wasting. By its timely use thousands of hopeless cases have already been permanently cured. So prool positive is Dr. Slocum of its power that, to increase its usefulness and make known its great merits, four large samples of the Dr. Slocum re medies will be sent to every reader of this paper who is afflicted with the terrible disease--consumption.' Al you have to do is to send your name, post office and express office address to the T, A. Slocum chemical company, 179 King street west, Toronto, when the four samples of the Slocum remedies will be sent immediately. -------- ASKING FOR LETTERS. Canadian Children Asked to Write to English Friends. Bowmanville Statesman, Miss Nellie Ware, Christchurch, Hants, England, writes sayin the scholars in the Burton school are studying about Canada 107 children in that school. They wish Canadian boys and girls to write them telling all they car about this country, its schools, churches, homes, people, ete. They wish to know what games are played at schools in sum- mer and winter, subjects studied, how many holidays, description of locality, what trees grow, occupation of peo pls, what is grown and raised on the farms, what fruit is grown, the price of land per sere to buy, to rent, what wages are pail to men servants, and maid servants, the prices of all kinds of farm stock, what vehicles are used, what social pastimes are engaged in and what "countries the people came from and what Toronto, London, Hamilton, Ottawa, Kingston, Winni peg, ' Vietoria, (B.€.), Montreal asd (Quebec cities are like. We ask the bays and girls in all these places and in every pgry of Canada and the Uni ted States to write the Burton school, and give. them all the information asked for and as much more as you can think of.
