In all, from Sept. 1 to Dec. 12, 1923, there were marketed in districts served by the Canadian Pacic Railway more than 200,000,000 bushels of all grains the largest quantity ever repnrted since the inception of the road. Taking the cars loaded as more truly representative of the activities of the company in the matter of grain movement, these have been reported at 116,232 for the perio'.',`representing 169,931,184 bushels. Suppose for a moment that all that grain were to be dumped into :1 river bed 100 feet wide and ve feet deep, and that the Grain Movement Over The Canadian Pacific Railway Sept. 1 - Dec. 12, 1923 .("Ilickety-dick, clickety-click. .. it is the sound of car wheels passing over the railroad tracks, and you could land and listen to the same clickety-click for 44 hours on end, if you were to watch that part of the magnificent er of Canada grown in districts served by _the Canadian acific railway and moved from the hn-vest elds hy that company. Imagine. if you can, a train 881 miles long, or as far as from Winnipeg to the upper reaches of the Rocky Mountains. That is how many freight cars there would be. But cars alone cannot make a train. There are the engines, as well, and the road has kept in the neighborhood of 670 freight engines tugging grain trains east and west day and night throughout the season and in addition to these there are 171 switch engines employed at terminals. The season, be it understood. is taken as the period from the opening of the Canadian crop year.

In point of fact. however, the loge-st train which was made up during the season consisted of 125 cars and was approximately 1 mile in length. lt was operated from Stoughton to Armla, Saskatchcwzul, on ()ctol.)er 5th.

Ford predominates because it supplies the essen- tials of adequate, economical transportation. Ford has been the pioneer in the automotive in- dustry; has blazed the trial in every fundamentally sound transportation principle. Ford service is an outstanding example of Ford predominance. Authorized Ford service is to be found wherever motor cars are used--valways capable, business-like and prompt. More than 4,000 service stations in Canada are assurance of this.

A particularly interesting feature of the grain move< ment of the present season according to company officials is the increase which had been reported in the amount of grain sent by Canadian Pacic to Vancouver for export. In all there were 6,582 cars received representin 8,087,784 bushels, or a very large percentage of the tota exports from Vancouver whic aggre ated 8,910,966 bushels to the United Kin dom, and 8 ,300 mostly to South America. Last season or the correspond- ing period there were 3,548 cars received at Vancouver and 4,897,019 bushels. exported. _ _ A _ _ _ ` new `river were able to How at an average rate for water, say a mile an hour. then he who stood on the bank and had the patience to watch, might pitch his tent and picnic for three and one half days before this stream would be dried up. A mound trin into the land of imavinatinn and mu- hann itseu is only 4,ouu xeet above me sea. But after all, wheat is of little use in imaginary rivers or even mountains. however high or picturesque they may be. Let us consider what would happen if all the wheat were made into flour (leaving coarse grains aside) and kneaded up and baked into bread. If this were done there would be approximately 104,700 miles of regulation `size, 16 ounce loaves, if they were placed end to end. This tremendous string of loaves would stretch back and forth across Canzula, from Montreal to Vancouver 36 times. If the loaves were laid side by side and end to end. they would form a solid belt across the Dominion wider than the height of a city lamp post. Again if they were piled in a trans-Canada wall one loaf deep, the height of the wall would he 12 feet.

If the grain were heaped up on acre lots of ground, there might well be three mountains, and each one of them would tower 5,000 feet into the heavens. The Canadian Pacific railway station at Lake Louise, one of the highest in the Rocky Mountains, is 5,044! feet above sea level. In the three mountains would be included outs. rye, barley, ax-~ all the coarse grains commonly grown in the Dominion as well as wheat, but if the latter were to be sorted out and put into mountains by itself, supposing there were still to be three mountains. then each of these would rise 4,200 feet from the ground. Banff itself is only 4,500 feet above the Rut nfter all. wheat is of little use in imzwinarv rivers \\ (ll HUI`-'. |u telmpxeul tn r-I-hnn chnnl H. 311 1.Im'_\`.
