Campbell, the man- ager of the Buffalo, Lockport & Roch- ester railway, had an opportunity to inspect all kinds of pavement. phalt, (on levels), with brick on the devil strip and sidings of the street railway, The superior of all was the granite block, but it was probably the {most expensive. It eould however, be "easily removed for any purpose and broplaced." On sonte of the suburban drives the _macadam oiled made a | beautiful surface, and the autoists, Who are usually hard to please, pre iferred. As one sped over these well made macadam roadways he could pot help but reflect that if Kingston had as good there would he little to de | sire or complain 'of. There has heen some objection {o oiling streets here, but in Rochester, the flower city, and with a convention of florists in ses the time of our representa- sence of objection to the oil. ---------- SURELY THE LESSER EVIL.

It has been announced that Dr. Mae- donald, of , the Globe, will surrender the details of _newspaper management himself more to international ques- tions, and especially the question of | * peace, This, however®is not what the sy Globe "Says. Our contemporary inti- mates that 'the editor is to be relieved ftom considerable detail of manage ment in order to give more of his time to editorial writing, The editor odds that he may also devote more peesonal attention to. the study and diseussion of questions of internaticn- al interest, and may discuss these on the platform and in the press.

It will probably jar a man of his fine sensibilities, but he will endure it for the sake of Old Man Ontario, who is pictured as constantly standing near Sir James Whitney and his little boys in the government and encouraging them with his smiles, The premier says there is an order. in-council that either a minister or a deputy shall go to London once a year jand study the immigration problem.

Carleton, of the depart- ment of agriculture mt Washington, is a decided optimist as to the future of | wheat growing on the American con- itinent. Instead of the United States {heing forced to discontinue exporting wheat before many years pass, as some have contended, Mr. Carleton predicts that by 1950 the total wheat | yield of the republic will reach 1,600, 000,000 busheldsufficient to feed its «| entive population, which he estimates og wo Twill by that time have reached 160,- 1 000,000, and leave a surplus for 'port of 480,000,000 bushels. In an address before an assemblage of millers 3t Minneapolis recently Prof. | Carleton explained how he reached his conclosions, He estimated that since the last decennial census was taken, 200,080,000 acres had been added to 'the farms of the country, so that to- day probably 46,678,000 acres are under wheat, as compared with 41, 971,800 - sores in 1900. In addition there are some 50,000,000 acres in the Indian, veservations, unallotted and unreserved, and 79.000,000 acres of swamp lands which are gradually be- ing drained and brought under the plow. He believes, further, that ad- ;vancing prices will increase the aves | annually sown im whént, and that the new varieties which have been. intro- "duced of late yéars will greatly in: crégue the yield per acre. What the professor has to say about Canada js of special interest. Outside of Manitoba, he points out, wheat production has only fairly begun in Western Canada, and yet the entire production can be made as large as that of the United States at present. He recognizes the greatness of the un- developed resources of Alberta and Saskatchewan, the available farm area of which he places at 250,000,000 acres, Of this ubout one-ninth is available for wheat, as in Manitoba, and Kan: sas, especially as corn produclion wm» impossible. He considers 30,000,000 acres in wheat for the three provinces as the figure in 1950, an estimate which 'Western Canadians will doubt- less agtee is ridiculously low. How- ever, the profeseor does not include in his enleulations the increases that will occur in the older provinces of Canada atid the possible production in North: eastern. British. Columbia and the. North-West Territory. * To show that the possibilities in Northern Alberta have not been fully tested, Prof. Carleton recalls the fact that in 1908, 35,000 bushels of wheat Were grown in the vicinity of Fort Vermillion--an average of twenty-dour bushels per this on land 250 miles north of ton. . : EDITORIAL NOTES. ~ So some of the women wardens of are experts in ex WHIG, SATERDAY.

Carman is willing to be for another four yesars as general su- perinténdent of the Methodist church, but there is a demand for a division of labours; nnd the appointment, as formerly, of two wuperintendents, one for the east and one for the west. Dr. Carman is a vigorous old mas, but the duties of his office are very oner- ous. Thé government annuities system may be the best under the sun--is in- deed the best so far as the Whig can learn--hut it is like the article of mer- chandise which the manufacturer or the merchant wants the people to buy. It must he advertised. The govern- ment, which has adopted so many other desirable things in connection with the 'business, should not overlook the most important, that of advertis- ing, Johomy Canuck was informed by the press recently that if he did not be have himself bn the pulpwood question he would be metaphorically seized and spanked. But Johnny goes right on with his policy, in no way alarmed or scared. The Maritime Provinces are now considering the wisdom of prohib- iting the removal of pulpwood from the government-owned land to the Un- ited States, and if this goes through. Canada will be solid on the question, Pmt ERR © 4 WILLIAM 'F. SANDS, United States minister to Guatemalan, $The Man On Watch. : The presence of about five thousand peoplé in Macdonald piurk last Sab- bath "evening, should be a' pretty good answer as to whether or not the people of Kingston want band concerts on Sabbath evenings, the Lampman remarks. Of the multitude in the park on the above occasion, he thinks that fully three-quarters weye regular churchgoers, who streamed down after servicty, The other quarter were what some 'might call the Sabbath desecra- tors, but the Lampman could not see any difference between the two sec tions of people. the people did not want Sabbath band concerts, they would not erowd to the park to hear them. In view of the act that the townspeople are strongly in favor of open-air music on Sabbath evenings, music that is played better than most of the church organiste render it, he thinks that Town Councilman Kent, who is" the worthy chaifman of the committee on parks, should at once proceed . and arrange a band concert for every Sabbath evening during the balance of the warm weather, The Lampman says he was taught that all things are sacred, and, therefore, he was surprised to hear a Presbyterian clergyman declaré that there was noth: ing sacred about a Sunday evening band concerf.
