Kingston, Aug. 16--(To the Editor) In Thursday's issue of your paper | noticed an article under trades and la bor notes, which 1 beg to criticise, | do not know who was responsible for the report, but it reads as follows: "The committee on co-operative stores is also investigating the possi- bilities of making a success of the en- terprise There is some talk of se- curing and operating a farm and es- ablishing a milk route." Unless there are two co-operative stores start- ing in Kingston at the present time, the committee referred to above is the dream of some persons, and the same person in his dream must have had visions of operating a farm and milk route We do not want the citizens of Kingston to think that the Kin gston Co-operative Society was in any way responsible for the report. If there should be tw - cieties starting, I humbly for this article. Yours truly T. W. MORRIS, Secretary street. ALL FARMING RECORDS BROKEN IN BRITAIN Over 1,800,000 Acres of Old Grass Land Producing Food This Year. operative apologize Ci 466 Barrie 19.--The latest report the Commissioner of the Depart. ment of Food Production indicates that, in most parts of the country the corn crops. promise to be up to the average, and some will be well above that, During last winter and spring over 1,800,000 acres of old grass land were put under the plow in England and Wales, TThe Beard of Agricul-{ tue increased the arable land hy 2- 500.000 acres over 1916. Ireland add- ed 1,500,000 acres and Scotland 300,000 acres, There is. now London, Aug ot mores land growing wheat, oats and barley than was ever, before recorded, and the average un- der potatoes is greater than any year since 1872. Given only an average yield the country should provide en- orgh breadstuffs. to feed the entire! population, "at the present scale of consumption and on the existing basis of milling." for forty weeks, and set free shipping to the extent of: 1,500, 002 tons. The breadstuffs produced by home harvest in 1916 amounted only to ten and a half weeks' supply, and that of 1917 thirteen weeks. The increase brings with it the prospect of about 500000 tans of con- centrated feeding stuffs in: éxcess of the normal quantity of oats reserved for animals. 'There is enough oat straw to compensate for 350,000 tons of hay, of which the country will be short owing to the breaking up of the old grass land. This is despite the fact that to-day there are in England and Walds 200000 fewer laborers on the land than in the year before the war, CLOTHES AT $65 NEXT. This is the Outlook for the Coming Autumn. New York, Aug. 17--~That it will cost 865 next spring for a suit of men's clothes that in 1914 could; be purchased for $25, is the opinion of Ludwig Stein of Kuppenheimer & Ca. Stéin told members of the National Association of Retail 'Clothiers that suits selling at between $15 and before the war were not luxuries but necessities. A suit costing 1914 will sell this fall for $25 and $35 next spring. Stein said he did not believe the Government would tax clothes selling helow $65 retail.
