slopping herevere never recorded nxt summe let us have a register so that we may know whether the venture is really worth while we think it is and we know that the camp was patronized it is conservatively estimated that an addition of 940000000 has been spent in ontario by tourists from outside the province this new found money goes into every possible channel from food products to costly souvenirs switzerland florida and california are ouestanding examples of how tourist traffic affects develop ment ontarios revenue has been the result of an open door policy and advertising by railway companies and district organizations it can easily be imagined that a province- wide movement to sell ontario to particularly our wealthy neighbors to the south ot us will have the effect of increasing this amount consider ably through provincial organiza tions in quebec nova scotia new brunswick and british columbia re markable results in the development of tourist traffic have been achieved during the past year the tourist association of ontario has been formed and at the first annual meet ing to be held in toronto on nov 27th definite action will be taken to advertise the holidaying possibilities of the province commenting on the plowing match es which were held in stouffville and other places throughout the pro vince recently the ontario farmer be lieves that a distinctly progressive step has been taken this year by the addition of a speed plowing or utility plowing class to the list of events at the international plowing match program it establishes a pre cedent that could be very well fol lowed it 01 plowing matches held throughout the province the addi tion was made because ot criticisms in pait- yeari from farmers who could not see the value of an exhibi tion ot purely fancy plowing on which contestant spent double the time or morj than could be given to it in actual farm practice while straight uxhlbitlon work should not bo eliminated there does seem to be x justification for the criticism ot nothaving any utility classes whatever it might be that the on tario plowmens association might go a step further than they did this year and establish utility classes or speed plowing contests in both sod and stubble former resident passes mrs chas camplin of cowan ave toronto died on monday nov 23rd after a shoit illness she was a
