This annual contest of the Ontario Safety League has now become a well-established Institution in the province, and one which is accomplishing a good work, The time for training in safety habits and safety think. Ing Is during these impressionable school years, and the contest helps to inculcate in youthful minds those principles of safety which will go far towards the growing up of &' new generation which will pay more at- tention to the prevention of accidents than i present generation seems capable of dor ng. REFORESTATION IN ONTARIO COUNTY The county council of Ontario county is to be congratulated on its decision to become a partner with the provincial government in the development of a large scale of reforeat- 'ation project: near Uxbridge, within the vounty. This project, which was started four ago, and has only now been made the subject of a definite agreement, provides for [the reforestation of 1,000 acres of land, quite # large area for any one colipty to handle, In sponsoring this project, the county vouncil has shown'real vision as to the needs of the future. , Reforestation is not a thing which provides benefits for the generation which starts it, which plants the trees, The crops do not provide any immediate cash har vest. But for the generations to come; the trees which are now being planted will prove a valuable asset, Reforestation. means building for the fut. ure, and #0 looking to the future with such wisdom. and ght, the Ontario county council is showing its sense of the respon. sibility which rests on each generation to hand. on to the next an heritage which has beer antiched, an will become even richer 'n the years to come, | a 'AN EMPIRE NEWS AGENCY The Canadian newspaper men who are at- tending the meetings of the Empire Press Union are showing splendid leadership to the Empire in.the making of constructive sug- gestions for the improvement of news ser vices in all British countries, They have "already laid stress on the necessity of more news of Canada and the other nations of the Empire g in the newspapers of | Great ain, and this Is likely to bring 8, The latest proposal, however, is re far-reaching, for E.

Last fall, they gam ins ! p of wheat, small as it was, out of the world market at a time when prices w about forty cents a bushel higher than they are today, in the hobs that a world shortage of wheat would sen Drictn soaring and that farmers of Western rn would reap the benefit, They gambled; and they lost, and the farmers, of course, are left holding the bag, They are the Jnatre from what has wheat pool officials, With wheat being quoted below the dollar mark, the farmers of the west are finding themselves in a very unfavorable position, They have already received initial payment for their wheat on the basis of a dollar a bushel, and added to that there are the hand. ling and carrying charges, and interest on the advances made by the banks, This means that, the farmers are several cents a bushel in debt to the wheat pool, and this amount will become a charge against the crop of this year. It in bad business to have to face harvest with the crop mortgaged, and that is the position in which many of the farm. ers will find themselves, Their only hope is that when the year's sales by the wheat pool are averaged up, the net result will give an average of sufficient amount to clear the farmers as much as possible, so that the next crop will be able to stand. on its own feet, without the handicap of a load of debt car. ried over from the last one, The wheat pool's gigantic experiment in controlling the wheat market of the world has been a gigantic failure, and it has proven that, in spite of what world conditions may be, it is a bad business to gamble with the people's foodstuffs, NOT 80 BLACK AS PAINTED The Rotary Fair of last week showed that conditions in Oshawa are not so bad as some people, and particularly people outside of Oshawa, are not so black as they have been painted, The Rotarians are quite frank in confessing that they had some doubts as to the possibilities of a successful fair. They had heard some of the doleful reports, and were rather timid about tReir prospects of making a success of the event under the gircumstances, The actual results, however, have done much to~dispel that Oshawa is in a condition of dive poverty, The people had money to spend on an event ofvthis kind, and they were generous in spending it. The truth is that Oshawa (8 not in any worse condition than any other city, and in spite of the dole. ful stories which, for political purposes, some Toronto newspapers have been publish. ing, this city is in better condition, econ omically, than many other communities, We are not trying to hide the fact that unemployment 'in the city is below normal, that it has fallen off from the peak of the spring of 1020, but the success which at- tended the Rotary Fair is a fairly good in. dication that things are not so bad as some people would have us believe, ELECTION GUESSES "The Statford Beacon-Herald editor wants to -make a bet with the Toronto Globe that Toronto returns more Tory members than Grits, We wonder if he would be as willing to bet on the result in, say North or South Perth, or North Oxford,"--Oshawa Times, "Ready and willing, Right here in North Perth we bet that David wins, You see David Wright and David Smith are the can. didates."" Stratford Beacon-Herald, The Stratford editor's guess may be (W) right at that, EDITORIAL NOTES Summer seems to have beén a long time in coming, but in Canada it is well Worth waiting for. Since a Chicago newspaper reporter was | slain by gangsters, there is not quite such a rush of young lads wishing to become re. : porters, Political leaders trying to seek encourage. ment from the results of the recent provin. These successful horse shows emphasize the fact that a few of them still remain, Premier King has started the osculation i a little girl, Just how Shmpaign by k far this campaign will go depends somewhat on the age of the girls, ; There is something rather familiar about the announgement that Chicago is planning an effective campaign against crime, Hot weather would not be quite so bad if .| wecoul d find some one to blame for it, 'The effect of the new United States tarift proven to be an illadvised venture of the |g Other Editors' Comments THE CLASH / (Ottawa Journal) : Clash' 'about which Mr, wrote Whit of & philonaphe Advisory Board to be abo: DATION op aied 0h, LR we have th oha in d aL on in the onstity Ontario, evidently ng the ambition for a long , of course, may nality, He may re souls who, te, chalgman of the Tariff Board, That, If It is true, Is cred: itable to My, Moore, reveals him as an extraordinary personality, For the public, howaver, it Is & 1ttle , The chairman of & Tariff Board should be, like Caesar's wile, above susplolon: and (his condition Which permits a man to plan for politioal honors on behalf of # certain party while dealing with the interests scores of important national infor: ests, makes for susplolon, Mr. Moore, we think, should do oné of two things; he should stick to alth or the Tariff Board or to politios, He can't be allowed to stick to both, ------ SAVING ROADRIDE TREES (New York, Times) Phat the State Highway Depart: ment 1s aware of the desirability of preserving trees when widening highways, and of otherwise deface: ing the landscape as little as pos sible, is apparent from the letter addressed hy Distriot Engineer J 1.
