TURKS AND ALLIED POWERS SIGN THE MUDANIA CONVENTION TERMS Allies Preparing to Occupy Thrace With Three Battalions of British, Three of French and One of Italian Troops Greece Also Agrees to Terms. A despatch from Mudania says: The armistice convention has been signed. The representatives of the Turks and of aU the powers concerned affixed their signatures to the revised protocol, which General Harington had presented for accep Lance to Ismet Pasha, and which the Nationalist delegate had previously forwarded to the Angora Government for its de- cision. The convention, consisting of 14 cfaimes, is drawn on liberal Vines, showing strongly traces of French influence on the side of the Kemalists. Under it the Greeks will evacuate Eastern Thrace within IB d.ays andj oonrpOete the transfer to the Turks in j an additional month. The Turkish civil administration will follow clc-r-' )y on the heels of tivs departing, Greeks, the entire tran:fer beinz' under the supervision of the Allied missions and Allied forces provision- ally occupying Thrace, it exceeding! seven battalions. The number ofj Turkish gen<torm<rie in the province; during ttie interval is left undefined to' THE FIRE8WEPT AREA the discretion of the KeniaMsts, sub- ject to A Hied approval. The Turka, on their sid<e, undertake not to place an army in Thrace until peace is ratified, while new neutral rones will be dlimitd by fixed com- missions. The protocol gives no time limit for withdrawal of the Turkish forces from the neutral zones: it simply specifies "with all possible speed." A despatch from Constantinople says: Plans for the Allied detach- ments to move into Thrace and occupy j the territory in conformity with the armsitice convention sig-ned at Mu- dania, were completed on Thursday. The force wii'l comprise three bat- talions of Briti.-ih troops, three of French and one of Italian, a total of 5,000 men. A despatch from Paris says: Greece has decided to sign the Mu- dwnia armistice convention and evacu- ate Thrace, according to the condi- tions stipulated in that document, the Freiwh Foreign Office has been offi- cially informed.

The autumn school term is in ful^ swing and the teacher is making an-i nouncements such as this. The stu-j dent finds it sufficiently difficult toj study geography as it is provided in his school text book. He has a map,] however, from which a copy may be made, or which he may memorize and later put down hi* impression. But who makes the original map? Every spring from the Topo- graphical Surveys Branch of the De-j partment of the Interior at Ottawa) many parties leave for the unsurveycd portions of Canada to carry out the instructions of the Surveyor General:] Make a survey of t.he district and pre pare a map. Between the* receipts of these in- structions and the completion of the finished work, however, a great am-j ount of hardship and sometimes actual ] privation must be undergone. By. cross-country tramps for many miles,' by canoes and portage and by lr>eak-' ing new trails in aH weathers, the Dominion Land Surveyor carries on] his work, ami is worthy a place in tho Hsts of our pioneers.

When in the fioki, the surveyor must record practically everything there is to be seen. He must accurately : measure and mark, throughout the. district he is required to survey, the; changes in elevation, the rivers anJi creeks, the areas of wootiTand and i swamp, rock outcrops, spring.? c.f water and all other information that is to be shown upon the finished map. On the rivers and other waterways he must observe the currents, rapids and faP'S or other obstructions to navi-' gation, the classification of river, banks, whether sloping or precipitous, and the kinds of tinvber if the banks are wooded. All this must be in such manner that others may interpret his notes -himM it be found necessary. On his return to head office, the surveyor from his fiebd notes proceed*! to build tup a map of the area covered by hiis season's work. The work is then turned over to a skilled draughts- man who draws out the finished phan. Looking at a wall map of Cunadu, the student sometimes does not real- ize that every point shown has been carefully checked by the surveyor, the windings <>f rivers and 1 creeks, the in- dentations and projections of lake thcres, the boundaries of aH provinces, of counties, townships, sections and quarter-sections must nil be accurate, as each, in greater or leas degree, affect the ownership of lands. Many rrnaips and plans of Western Canada are issued by the Topograph- ical Surveys Branch, such as plans of townships, ar.d other land sub- divisions, which become the official documents on which all land titles are based; maps of national parks and forest ivserves. top^xraphioal maps, lnn;l classification maps and others. These plans and maps are available from the Surveyor General at Ottawa. Of particular interest at present are tihe topographical maps. The rapid expansion of motor travel and' of im- proved roads has led to a demand for this rfass of map. It makes a splen- did road map, showing as it does the various olasfei of roads, pasoMrve sta- tions, stopping places, and all other features of interest. The extension of this work to the oWr provinces would no douibt be greatly appreciated 1 by the resident motorist, as well as by the tourist. Bunch of No. 3, Please.

Edmonton, A!ta. Returns received by C. P. Marker, Dairy Commissioner, indicate the Alberta butter exhibited 1 at five of the large fairs in the West, captured 60 per cent, of the first prizes offered, and alo four out of five of the champiionsihrps. The exhibits were shown at Edmonton, Calgary, Saska- toon, Brandon and Regina, and come into competition with butter exhibits from most of the other provinces of Canada. Regina, Sask. Saskatchewan claims that her air pilots last year carried far more passengers and flew many more miles than those of any other province. During the year Sas- katchewan fliers carried 3,622 passen- gers, 2,000 more than Manitoba the next highest, and 2,500 more than British Columbia. They flew 95,142 pilot miles as against 64,000 in Al- berta, the next highest. An agitation is under way for the esrablishment in the province of a government air sta- tion because of this- record.

Since the first of the year Canada Ifcis received 2,222 immi- grants from Ireland, of whom 1,029 have been adult agriculturists, accord- ing to information available at the Department of Immigration.

Large cargoes of incoming coal and outgoing grain are combining to bring an unusual num- ber of E-hips to Montreal, over seventy seagoing vessels Ming berthed here at one time. This total is only slightly below the record of seventy-eight sea- going vessel* in port on Sept. 7, 1921, and it is probable that the latter figure wiH be exceedd -within the next few days. Many steamers eminence to toad grain practically aa soon as their coal cargoes are discharged, and to facilitate tite grain movement, local elevators are being operated At full speed, nigrrt and diay. St. John, N.B. Dr. W. H. Collins, director of the Geological Survey, De- partment of Mines, on his return home from a three weeks visit to the vari- ous field parties who are at work sur- veying the mineral industry of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, is most optimistic. He reports new coal 'beds the existence of which was unsuspect- ed, and deposits of oil shale in bcth provinces, associated witk coal mea- sures. They are not yet being mined, but constitute the basis cf an im- portant future mining indiistry. Digby, N.S. On October the first the moos* hunting season opened in the Maritime and numbers of United States sportsmen arrived to set out on the trail at the earliest possible moment. Toll is taken of the New Brunswick and Nova Scotia woods to the extant of about 2,500 moose each year, approximately half of which can be attributed to visiting hunters from the United States. Last year the re- cord head, with a spread of 64 inches, was accredited to a Philadelphia hun- ter. John H. Sinclair One of the new directors of the C.N.R. system.

PROPOSAL TO QUARA NTIHE CATTLE IN CANADA BEFORE EMBARKING A despatch from London says: | The Ethiopian in the wood pile of. Canadnan cattle embargo removal ha*| made its appearance. The draft bill ; embodying the decision of both Houses of Parliament to rescind the embargo has been submitted to Hon. W. S. Fielding and Hon. Ernest La-' pointo. who nrc conferring \vith Win- ston Churchill, regard in. 1 ? th's matter. It indicates that for the quarantine period in Errand, to whinh the Can- , r.dian representative.' had already made it clear they would t'bject, it i proposed to su'latitute a short quar- antine before the embarking of the cattle in Canada. British experts claim that it would' be impossible to inspect and quarantine the csttlo only during the period in which they were on board ship between Canada and Britain. The Canadian representative* wouki iwt object to inspection en voyage but regard the proposed delay in Canada as a drawback quite as serious as if it occurred en this side. It w,mM incidentally require. the pro- vision of exIernFive quarantine quar- ters nt the port* of emb.H'rkHtion. The Domin'ion ministers hive inaicnted that th; bi'l n cVafted would be un- accept.sb'e to them and it is under- stood that new proposals will be made by the British Government. The pro- pects for a final settlement of this long standing grievance are regarded as still quite encouraging. ment, $4.<iO to $4.70; Toronto basns, butcher steers, chccce, $(' to $6.50; do, $4.50 to $4.60; bulk seaboard, $4.40 to good, $5.50' to $6; do. med., $4.50 to $4.45. i $5.50; do, co:n.. $3.50 to $4; bufchejr Manitoba flour-- 1st pats., in cotton , heifers. choice, $C, to $f>.nO; do, mad., sacks, $(5.50 per bbl.; 2nd pats.. $6. i $'"> to $.x;>0; <ta, com.. $4 I j $4.25; but- Hay Extra No. 2, per ton, track, ' cher cows, choice, $4 to $5; do, med., .Toronto, $10; m-txed, $13.50 to $14; $3 to $3.75; canners and cutters, $1 clover, $13.50 to $14; straw, $9, car : to $2; butcher buH*. good, $3.50 to lots. i$4.75; <!o. com., $2.50 to $3.50; feeders, Cheese New, large, 20 to B0tt; ' food, $5 to $5.7u; do, fair, $4.25 to twins. 21 to 2H4c; triplets, 21V6 to $4.75; stockers. good, $4.25 to $6; 22c; Stiltons. 21o.
