Some districts in Glasgow will vote among others. Each side seems to be quite confident of the result, and a good many speakers from this part of the world will participate. It is probable that the result of the Manitoba vote of a. few weeks ago will be featured by the wets in Scotland. `The trouble with a situation in one country is that it quite often is not clearly under- stood in another.

V Secret-ary Wallace of the United States Department of Agri- cultu.re is quoted as declaring that thou- sands of farmers in that country will go bankrupt because their wheat will sell below the cost of production. andthat other thou- sands will only be able to carry on by the exercise of themost rigid economy. He contends that one of the- primary causes of the farmer's troubles is the highiprice of `the manufactured articles that he has to buy. The reports from the Institute of Agriculture at Rome show that the world :- wheat crop is greatly increased over that of last year. which would give another reason for low prices. Canadian fanners are suffering from the tariff arrangements. made in the United States wirh the idea of protecting the farmers there front com1:.eti- tion. The Americans were told that the-re- `suit would be most beneficial to agriculture ;throughout the republic. As is often the case, the tariff changes have failed to ac- complish anything of the kind. iThe Canadian farmer has brothers in dis I Troubles `of U.Si i Farmers. ! `l'he,Poor German Mark ` -E In normal times the German mark was: worthiwenty-four cents of our money.

Some lthinkthat there will be eventually a whole- I . . . sale repudiation of the unending stream of marks now being turned out by the German` government printing presses, or that the, government, in desperation, will re-value `the mark- at a figure which may make it ipossible -to meet obligations if and when Germany regains anything like its former financial standing. Meanwhile, the recur- ring `changes of government in that country are an indication of the chaos existing there . D . Weather Prophets - Busy ' Weather prophets are busy again. They are now predicting an early fall. Unusual lice floes in the north Atlantic have been tgiven as one cause for the abnormal var- iations in the weather on this_.c0ntinent. The theory advanced some time ago that the sun was not giving off the usual amount of heat has been accepted by a good many scientists. These are inclined to the view thatthe sun has not melted the average` amount of `ice and snow in the north this year. and that it-is now halfway back from its northern trip. The result is that the Arctic cold will have an earlier start this year. The human mind is inclined to retain la fast" hold on hope, and will not readily! iaccept the dictum of theorists. particularly if some of their predictions have failed` in lthe past. Until winter actually proves that lit is- breaking records, _there will be little worrying about it. It will be interesting. lhowever. to note these prophesies and to lwatch for their fulfilment or failure. A Q l.'.VI'N'.l] -T EH2 SIGNIFICANCL ' `The Imperial conference 1- I PR EIIER MASSEY of New Zuland 1'1u-:_-BARRH3 EXAMINER `(Midland Argus) A number of Canadian National Railway officials were here on Thursday last to con- fer with the town officials regardingebetter train accoixiniodation between this town and Toronto. The matter was brought to the attention of `Sir Henry Thornton when he paid Midland" a visit a fewvweeks ago and while` he did not give any definite answer to` the question he at least promised to give it. consideration. Following the matter up several officials again visited the town last week to talk over the situation. Mayor Duncan. and W.. A." Fmlayson. Town Sol icitor. had an interview with them and laid the Town s claim for a better service via Birch out. The officials. it is understood, will report favorably upon the project of having the morning train leave Midland at 7.15 instead of 6.30`, the present hour. The town officials laid much emphasis on the fact that there did not appear_'to be any good reason why the service in` the after- noon should not be sent over the short line and connection made with the Penetang land is said to be the third. largest shipping noint. upon the Canadian National lines in Ontario and it does looli as though business men and others should be given the advan- tage of a better connection with the city. There will doubtless be some change made.- most probably in the morning train being equipned with a buffet car and sent over the short line. thus saving `an hour in the journey from here to Toronto. Other chang- a ran at Birch Junction. The Town of Mid- es may also be expected to follow. Export of Pulpwood- `Canada s exportation of wood pulp, wood pulp sulphite, and newsprint during the past twelve months has `increased Very largely. The larger amount of theewood pulp was sent to the United States, as also was the case with newsprint. There has been some fear in the United States`re- cent-ly lest this "country should cut off this export at once. This would be a ser- ious matter `for the newspapers and other publications in the Republic, which are be- coming increasingly dependent upon this country for their newsprint. But no `such action is likely to be-taken in haste. The Commission recently- appointed by the Do- minion Government to inquire into the whole matter will spend some months in its investigations. and any legislation based on its report would have to go before Par- liament. `There are great supplies of pulp- wood. the raw material for newsprint. in this country. and a most important ma_tter for consideration would seem to be proper conservation methods to ensure of its be- ing practically inexhaustible. This would not necessarily mean curtailing its cutting in an arbitrary manner. The days of sense- less cutting of timber and pulpwootl without any attempt at replenishing should have passed in this country. ' l l l i l fin which her investments are very large. _Argentine might be cited as an example. lSome four hundred. million pounds of `Bri- `tish money has been invested in that coun- ltry. and there is _a tremendous mutualatrade {between the two. This is only one case out lot many in which an Iniperiall preference" |would work hardships. It is possible that the day will come when such a scheme will be workable and advisable. At the present moment the question is whether the Do- minions could supply Britain with every- thing tha` she now buys abroad at suitable pri_ces. and whether she could in return fill {all their requirements not -met by home I production.
