Good For the Farmers "Out of all the plethora of words which ' have been written since the Imperial Econ- omic Conference closed on Saturday, one thing stands out pre-eminently from the standpoint of Canada, and that is the sub- stantial benefit which will accrue to the farmers of Canada, and particularly of Ontario, as a result of the agreement with Great Britain. With the exception of writers in the Toronto Star, which has all along taken a stand antagonistic to the work of the conference, newspapers are agreed that the preferences on farm pro- ducts from Canada will be of great help to the agriculturists, but the chief testimony is that which comes from Ontario's minis- ter of agriculture. Here is what he says: "It is a splendid thing for Ontario farm- ers, Particularly will Ontario farmers benefit in the egg, fruit and dairy clauses. It will mean that Ontario, with the rest of Canada, will have new markets. Ontario is not much of a country for butter produc- tion, the province importing considerable butter at present. But we do manufacture cheese. The change in the cheese tariffs, giving preferences under which Canadian cheese can enter Britain, means that On- tario cheese prices will increase." Col. Kennedy goes on to detail the bene- fits of the agreements regarding apples and eggs and looks to them to bring much- needed financial relief to the farmers of the province. Going further, the agreement regarding wheat, assuring Canada of a definite mar- ket in Great Britain, should stimulate things for the wheat-growers of the west. Some economists have been arguing that the preference granted will not increase wheat prices, but if it helps to give a stabilized market for Canadian wheat, and "removes the bogey of Russian competition in the British market, then the wheat situation cannot help but be benefitted. All through the agreements, it looks as if the aim of the Canadian government and its delegates has been to assist the primary industries, so as to bring more money into this country, and thus stimu- late the whole of its industrial and econ- "omic structure. This can best be done by enabling the farmers to secure better mar- 'kets and better prices for his products. If that can be accomplished, then the bene- fits will be felt all over the Dominion, and with Ontario's minister of agriculture jubilant over the prospects created by the conference agreements, we feel inclined to say that the farmers of Ontario will be given fresh courage and new hope for an sarly improvement in their economic tatus. What Will Oshawa Gain ? Oshawa is naturally interested in any effects which the Imperial Economic Con- ference agreements will have on the future of this city. While it will benefit indirectly from the general stipulation of business which is expected, there are hopes that the agreements made will tend to increase the export trade in automobiles made in this city. . 'One such agreement is that with South Africa, which definitely specifies that auto- mobiles made in Canada will have a new preference in the markets of that country. Similar preference is already in effect in New Zealand. While at one stage of the negotiations there were proposals for new preferences on automobiles entering Great Britain, these are not mentioned in the agreement, but they will continue to enter that country under the present tariff en- actments of the British government, which provide for preferential treatment. The hope in this lies in.the possibility of a greater amount of the export business of the General Motors of Canada to the Oshawa plant. That, frankly, is where this city may reap some benefit directly from the conference agreements. If the entire export business for the whole Em- pire could be handled from the plant here, under the new agreements, it would be a great stimulus to industrial activity in Oshawa. The people of this city will therefore watch future developments along this line with interest, for in that direction alone lies Oshawa's greatest hope for di- Zect benefits from the conference, og Twenty-five Years Development| The Ontario department of mines has issued a highly informative and interest- ing blue book, entitled "Twenty-Five Years of Ontario's Mining Industry." This book- let gives, in statistical and historical form, a story that is worth reading, a story that is bound to be encouraging to all of those who have felt that in the mining industry of Ontario there is the greatest hope of the province for future development. Going back as far as 1906, the booklet shows that at that time there was very little mining in the province. Sudbury was' the only mining centre, and it was then but a small town. Cobalt at that time was only a name. The rich gold fields at Porcupine and Kirkland Lake were un- dreamed of. Mining was in its infancy, but was a lusty infant. Today, the picture is different. In the Sudbury area, from 85 to 90 per cent of the world's nickel is being produced. Cobalt is producing 80 per cent of the world's need for the mineral which gives its name to the town. Porcupine and Kirkland . Lake have placed Canada in second place among the world's gold-pro- ducing countries. Going into figures, in 1906 Ontario's production of minerals, amounted to $22,- 380,000. In 1929, the production of On- tario's mines was $117,960,000. Owing to general world conditions, production in 1930 was down to $95,272,000, but even at that figure there was an increase of 430 per cent over the 1906 production. From 1906 to 1930, the mines of Ontario pro- -duced $1,183,492,000 of metallic products, and in the non metallic section ,the produc- tion has been $567,713,000. This is a tremendous record. It shows what has been done in the last twenty- five years in digging new wealth out of the rocks of Ontario. It shows how great a contribution the mining industry has made, and can still make, to the upbuild- ing of the province. Looking back over this record makes one wonder what the next twenty-five years will bring in the mining development of Ontario. Admittedly the surface has only been scratched. With a restoration of economic stability in the world, and a quickening of the activities of the manu- facturing industries, demands for minerals will increase beyond anything which has been known in the past. And it is to Northern Ontario that a large part of the world will look for supplies. The last twenty-five years have brought amazing progress. The next twenty-five years should produce developments which will dwarf anything which has been done in the past, and should make Ontario more wealthy and prosperous than in even the palmiest days of the development that has gone before. , Editorial Notes The Oshawa police would do well to probe into the status of those most actively involved in the deportation mass meeting of protest. Such gatherings are usually found to have at least some Communistic relationship. "Tim" Jordan, regimental sergeant- major of the original 21st Battalion, C.E.F., was well-known to a host of Osh- awa war veterans, who will regret to learn of his sudden death in Belleville. Other Editor's Comments EUROPE'S ENTENTE (London News-Chronicle) It is excllent news that Germany has joined unconditionally the European entente. Eight Euro pean Powers have. now bound themselves to "com- plete candour in the exchange of views," to prac. tical preparation for the World Economic Confer ence and to avoid discriminatory commercial action against cach other. It is the beginning of wisdom for Europe to set about finding herself in this way; and the unconditional adhesion of Germany to the pact really puts an end to suspicions that it might prove the ghost of the old Entente Cordiale in, dis- guise, Whatever it may be, it is now obvious that it is not that.

HANDY, PUB- LISHER OF THE YPSILANTI (MICH.) DAILY PRESS, SAYS: "The American housewife is com- ing to be the world's greatest ad- vertiser, "First thought of what advertis- ing really is prompts you to label this statement as ridiculous, but if you will stop to consider the fact that every person is constantly ad- vertising by his every move, hls speech, his relationship with fellow men, in every wakeful moment of his life--and frequently in his sleep- ing moments--you will begin to agree with my statement. "How do American housewives advertise? I'll tell you. Just choose any business corner on a Saturday morning, the day after all the gro- cery and meat specials have ap- peared in the papers and you will see how they advertise. They ad- vertise their thrift and their good judgment and their business acu- men, their interest in life and their love for their families by selecting with care the best food for the Sunday dinner that money can buy and they do their selecting at the stores which have proven their worth, their dependability, their willingness to serve and their right to share public confidence. "And why do American house- wives advertise their modern meth- ods of buying to advantage in thls way? Simply because the grocer and the apparel store and the na- tional manufacturer have taught them, through the advertising pag- es of magazines and newspapers, that advertised goods have come to be best goods. "They have found that the reason it pays the manufacturer and the merchant to advertise is that 1T PAYS THE CONSUMER TO BUY ADVERTISED MERCHAN- Waprright, 20M} Part. 11" Those who are in close contact with children should not neglect or overlook any measure meant to relieve suffering or aid in the mental and physical development of those who are placed in their charge. This should not be inte:- preted to mean that only the eyes of these who compalin or are no- ticed should be examined. Among those . who are not knowff to complain and are often overlooked are to be found the growing conditions all the more dangerous when not suspected until vision has noticeably de- preciated, Then also there are the condi- tiong of spasm, where the error is spasmodic hidden for a time and later quite manifest, Cases of this kind may at times be classed ag normal. It is rightfully as- sumed, therefore, that the most desirable solution which may later be realized is the time when every child will receive periodic- ally a thorough eye examination.

Within a few weeks the first inbound freight will pass through the mew port with the arrival of ships already arranging their cargoes in Eu- rope. Meanwhile, 2,000,000- bushel modern elevator at Churchill is stocked with enough grain to load several boats for the outgoing passage to Europe. Work on the extension of the port facilities in proceeding rapid- ly, The loading gallery of the elevator is being enlarged to per- mit loading of several ships at once. The docks are being length- ened and warehouses to store in- bound freight are being built, Formal Opening Possibility of holding formal opening ceremonies for the new port this summer is being can- vassed by Hon, R. J. Manion, minister of railways and canals. Whether the formal opening takes place this year or not, however, the Manitoba govern- ment has no intention of open- ing the townsite to settlers as yet. Manitoba government officials are determined to prevent any premature growth and do nct relish the idea of people rushing in and later being unable to make a likelihood. Settlement will de- pend on establishNent of indus- tries at Churchill capable of providing employment, Some Suggestions Suggestions along this line are many, but nothing concrete has yet materialized. Establishment of an oil refinery has been moot- ed. Crude oil could be shipped in through Hudson's Bay, refined at Churchill and distributed from there through the Prairies. An explosive factory is another pro- posal which has .been mooted owing to the high cost of trans- porting explosives long distances by rail. Churchill, close to the centre of Western Canada and connected by water with sources of raw materials, might prove an economical site, Other industrial possibilities may arise out of the resources of the territory. The tundra moss surrounding Churchill would be a good fodder for reindeer. } Should reindeer breeding develop, it would mean establishment of a packing plant. Whaling in Hud- son's Bay has heen considered and the Industrial Development Board of Manitoba Is experimenting with the handling of white the Until industries of this char- acter develop there is little pros- pect of establishing a permanent population at Chrehill. So far as the loading and unloading of boats is concerned, the port will be open only for the season of navigation and for the remainder of the year no work of this kind would be available, Survey Completed Surveying of the townsite has been completed by the surveys bramch of the Manitoba depart- ment of Lands and Natural Re- sources and the first building, a residence and chapel, is now being erected by Rt. Rev. Arsene Turquetil, Prefect Apostolic of Hudson's Bay and veteran Aretic missionary. Streets are laid out to conform to the topography of the area and to facilitate drainage. Such names as La Verandrye Avenue, Hudson Square, Radisson Boule- vard, Franklin Street, Hearne Street and Groseflliers Avenue, recall the adventures of the ex- plorers and fur traders who first pushed their way into the for- bidding fastnesses of what is now northwestern Canada. No Land To Be Sold No land will be sold. To pre- vent speculation, the Manitoba government will retain title to it all and will alienate it only on fifty-year leases. Even leases will not be granted except as and unit] the development of the town warrants an influx of people. Steps have been taken to pre- vent the growth of a shack town and to guard against fire, a ser- fous menace during the winter All public buildings must be of firesproof construction and all residences semi-fire-proof. Premier John Bracken recently announced an hotel - would be built late in the summer or early in the fall, It will provide accom- modation for 'intending settlers who wish to go to Churchll and look the place over. The govern- ment will encourage anyone con- templating moving to the morth- ern town to obtain first-hand knowledge hefore embarking on a new venture, Many Inquiries Almost every day the govern- ment receives inquiries from would-be settlers, people who want to sell out their businesses and start anew in the sub-Arctic. One man proposed taking his printing plant from a southern Manitoba town te Churchill for the publication of a newspaper. His ardor cooled slightly. when he was told there were only about 200 employees on the har- bor construction work there and that during the winter the in- habitats consisted of the staff of the Hudson's Bay company trad- ing post, an occasional mission- ary or trapper and some half dozen men required to take care of the elevator and port equip- ment, Annual Exhibition Gananoque.-- The twelfth at nual exhibition of the Gananoque Horticultura) Society was held in the Liuklater School auditorium and hoys' play room and was the most successful exhibition in the whales, history of the society. when water is likely to be scarce, | paid on deposits-- subject to withdrawal cheque. CENTRAL IPAN AND SAVINGS | COMPANY KING AND VICTORIA STS., TORONTO 23 SIMCOE ST. N., OSHAWA OF a (AN NEW ZEALAND'S GHILD WELFARE WORK PRAISED Edmonton Woman Says It! Is Greatest in the Brie tish Empire ESTABLISHED 1884 } Calgary.--New Zealand's chila welfare work is one of the great- est in the British Empire, ac cording to a report from Miss Ina K. Wait, of Edmonton, who is making a tour of that country. Karitane, or motherhood craft homes, have been established in New Zealand and are proving very valuable in lowering infant mortality, These homes, started by Sir F. Truby-King, noted New Zealand physician, train young women and nurses in the care and feed- ing of delicate afd premature babies. The first of the homes was established in Dunedin, and its name "Karitane" was taken from the suburb in which it was built, Today the cities of Auck- land, Wellington and Christ church have Karitane training homes and the movement has also extended to Canada, Aus- tralia and England. A training home has been established in To- ronto, Ont, Karitane homes teach mothers to dress and weigh their babies. Room temperature is kept at 60 degrees although each infant has three hot-water bottles in its basket, They sleep out of doors nearly all day while the nurses move the baskets around with the sun so. that the children get as much health-giving rays as possible, Many girls in New Zealand have taken up Karitane training.
