REIN 222 LAS RIDLAETINESRE momE Emmet ee ee PAGE EIGHT ------------ A ---------- D------ TA SOLU ANNO ON OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1922 Railway News (Continued from page 5) Winmpeg, man.--Since che com- mencement of the crop year up to Oct. 1st, 85,605,674 bushels of wheat have been marketed by the Cana- dian Pacific Railway western lines, it was announced at the local office recently. During the same period the company handled 12,229,772 bushels of coarse grain and for the same period last year 66,164,115 bushels of wheat were marketed as well as 6,940,688 bushels of coarse grain. Total cars loaded to date amount to 52,773 as against last year figures of 38,257. 'There is every indication that the volume of travel to Europe during Novu.nber and December will: this year be heavy. It is already appar- ent that thé number of those who 'intend spending Christmas in the 0.d Country will be unusually large, ard the Canadian 'Pacific Railway is making special arrangements to accommodate the traffic. A special through train will be run from Win- nineg to the steamer "Montcalm", sug trom St. John, N.B., on De- ce.'er 12, and through tourist #ceners will run from Edmonton, Caigary, Saskatoon, Regina and oth- er western points to catch other C. FR. sailings' from St. John, thus tiving a through service from these tivies to the Old Country, Bow Isiand.--The Canadian Pa- efi. Railway Company has a gang of men at work here on the improve- ments to their pumping and when completed there will be quite an improvement to the volume of water that can be pumped from the river. The work includes the put- ting in of a new boiler and pump at the river, so that they can use na- tural gas as well as gasoline, and thus be sure of fuel at all times for pumping, and does away with water trouble and having engines run for water. It also increases the service here and practically does away with supply at other points, . R. Miles, division engineer, has charge of the work and has a crew of eighteen men working with him under Foreman W. J. Oliver. It will take at least three weeks for the work to be completed. When fin- ished they will be able to fill the present water tank, which holds 16,000 barrels, in three hours. When it is considered that there will be at least twélye to, sixteen trains daily taking water here it means there must be a supply of it on hand at all times. This new installation will meet the requirements. . . VWinnipeg.--Western Canada's ex- port business in fruit, potatoes and other lines of produce has developed te such proportions that exporters are now arranging to establish big collecting warehouses in Winnipeg and other cities of the prairie prov- | inces. The Canadian Pacific has granted special storage in transit privileges Mocse Jaw, Lethbridge and Calgary on carload shipments of apples in pones originating in British Celum- ia, Under the new .arrangement the shipper has the privilege of hold- ing this produce in Winnipeg or any of the other western cities named for a period of six months and then on Tesiipinen} he gets the advant- age of the through rate. St. John, N.B.--The prize awandsa to section foremen on the New Brunswick 'district of the C. P. R,, for the best sections of rails, read- bed, ete., have been announced re- cently by General Superintendent J. M. Woodman. His prize of $50 for the second best went to N.

LOVELY DEVON The origin of the name Devonshire is accounted for in an old English fable which tells of a hero named Debon. He came to England from Troy, and killed several giants after his arrival here. One of these giants ran into the West Country, where there was a great pit eight leagues across. This the terrified giant tried to jump, but, failing, he dropped back into the pit and was killed. That part of the country was afterwards given to Debon. It | was Debon's share and in due course became Devonshire, Another explan- ation of the origin of the country's name takes us back to the Britons of Cornwall who called Debon *'De- unan". To thig was added the word "scyre'" meaning a portion,and in Anglo-Saxon times the country had become "Devanascyre." With the passing of years, the name became shortened to its present form, $1.35 Pair Children's Fleece- lined Sleepers with Feet $1.00 to $1.50 FOUR GLOVE SPECIALS Washable Suede Gloves 75¢ Pr.
