The inister of Highways has received merous letters from proprietors, plaining that public utility com- 'generally destroying in the Province. When they to cut them down completely, so mutilate them that they no longer ornamental trees. #Legal proceedings have been ed agile the companies ch comm these acts of van- um, and the government is de- ed to fight to the limit to an end to this state of things. The Highways department thousands of trees each year decorate roads which are in care, # will not tolerate destruction of existing trees. "In view of the fact that these of vandalism are multiplying, Minister of Highways has de- to infroduce legislation at next session. In cases where ie ld Federal charters, ; tiogs will be made ta Ot- 8 to restrain the privileges of companies and oblige 'them respect thetrees in future," the ent h F. of The who is conducting one of ladies' -to-wear cloth. ing stores of the city HARVESTING MAY START NEXT WEEK Weekly Bank Report Fore- casts Crop Well Above Average y---- Winnipeg, Aug. 10.--Predic- tions that harvesting will become general in the Prairie Provinces about August 15, are made in the erop report issued 'by the Canadian Bank of Commerce, which tells of excellent growing conditions and forecasts a crop well above the av- erage. For the most part weather conditions during the past week have been excellent, Summary Manitoba--All grains are filling nicely. Damage from rust or hail has been negligible, although weeds in some districts will reduce the yield somewhat, There is ample moisture to carry all crops to ma- turity. Cutting of wheat in Kill- arney district has begun, but this will not become general through- out the province until about Aus. 15--Cutting of barley and rye has already commenced. With good weather during the next two weeks, a better than average crop will be harvested. Saskatchewan--Some points in the southwest report further slight hail damage, and Lloyd Minster and a few other points in that vie- inity report a few degrees of frost In no case, however, does the area covered or damage done appear to have been extensive, Except at Lashburn where it is estimated wheat yield may he reduced as much as 20 per cent. With these exceptions, the crop has progressed another week without damage. Wheat is ripening rapidly, and cutting should he general August 15. Present prospects are for a better than average wheat crop. Albherta--Crop conditions gener- ally satisfactory for the past week. Rye and some fall wheat is being cut. No damage has heen done ex- cept by severe hail storms in limint- ed areas. Wheat cutting will like- ly be fairly general August 20. Rust Danger Over Winnipeg, Aug. 10.--The west- ern crop in {its present advanced state can not suffer any very seri- ous depreciation from rust, stares the report of agricultural depart- ment of the Canadian Pacific Rail- wav, Weather in the west has been favorable for the growing grain, "it eontinues, which is now in the filling out stage. Crops continue to develop very satisfac- torily, and everything. points to a yield considerably better than av- erage in each of the Prairie Prov- inces. Rains have been fairly widespread since the last report, and hail again took toll of the crops in the southwest of Saskat- chewan and southern Alberta. While loss sustained by individual districts' was. severe, damage in'the aggregate was small when the to- tal crop average is taken into con- sideration. There are no indications of dam- age to the crops, apart from sonre lodging of the grain in a few dis- tricts on account of excessive rain- fall. Insect pests such as the saw- fly have not yet made any general appearance. BER Fair, ' ready All grain 1s now in thé head, | and many fields of rye and barley are about ready for the binder, and in a few instances cutting of these crops has already begun. Only in one or two districts in Manitoba and Saskatchewan and nowhere in Alberta, is rust report- ed, and in-those cases it is only in evidence;on the leaf and early stages. It i8 doubtful if the crop in general, owing to its advanced condition could now suffer any very eerious depreciation from rust. Summer fallowing operations are well advanced; and the gener- al condition is quite good, owing to the fact that farmers have cul- tivated for weeds in some districts as often as three or four times, "YOUNG AMBASSADOR" WON TRIP FOR HIS GRIT Montreal, Aug. 10.--One of the boys who were here today with the "Young Ambassadors of Em- pire" party was George Foreman son of an unemployed Northumber- land miner, from the yillage of Morpeth, in the North of England.

A letter to this effect has been sent all outobus owners in the proyince. The letter, which is signed by J. L, Boulanger, Deputy-Minister of Highways states in part: "The departmrent is in daily receipt of numerous complaints to the ef- fect the autobusses are an encumb- rance on the roads, that they inter- fere with circulation by not yleld- ing the road when called upon, that they constantly exceed they speed limit of 25 miles per hour in the country, and that the law which calls for a'stop on approach- ing a level crossing is mot observ- ed. "The chief of the circulation de- partment has already written you in reference to the complaints in the first category, Those of speea- ing are more serious and: the negli- gence of your chauffeurs in failing to stop at level crossings , may cause extremely grave accidents, "Autobus owners must under- stand that'the law be respected by them as well as by other motorists of the province.

SEE EXHAUSTION OF BRITISH STOCK Think That Within 10 Years the Supply of Settlers Will Fail "ARE London, Aug. 10.--A new an- gle to the problem of British emi- gration to Canada is being stress- ed by the newspapers, which are pointing out that the fall in the British birth rate and the read- justment of British industries are certain within a decade to make Britain cease to be a "population exporting' country.
