Sudbury Star:â€"The Milverton Sun has raised a pertinent question of inâ€" terest to producers and consumers alike in drawing attention to the fact that packing houses since last June have raised the price of bacon to the conâ€" sumer from 10 to 17 cents, an increase of about 70 per cent., although the price of hogs rarely exceeded 4 cents. Reâ€" cently the price to farmers daropped from $4 to $3.50 per cwt., The Sun ncotes, while in the meantime packers increased the price of bacon one cent per pound.

There will be great satisfaction in the West over the finding of the:court of inquiry on the sinking of the steamâ€" er "Bright Fan" after striking a small iceberg in Hudson Strait. The decision is that, if the ordinary precaution of maintaining a lookout had been taken, the accident would not have happened and the steamer with its 250,â€" 000 bushels of wheat would probably not have gone t> the bottom of the Strait. Anything that the Bay route lost in reputation as a result of the sinkâ€" ing of the "Bright Fan" has been fully regained, and the faith of the West in that northern transportation route is renewed 100 per cent. "More than $400,000 worth of new structures have been built this year, and the majority of them are dwellings and apartment blocks, or shops . with apartments above them. < In some pArts of the community new streets, lined with rows of new homes, have sprung up as if by magic, as an influx of new citizens swarmed into the community from other centres. Many came here from Cobalt and Sudbury. "Tax Collector Tipper‘s figures, which are subject to revision when all of the returns are in, show that during the past year and a half Kirkland‘s popuâ€" lation has shattered all > records in growth. "Five years ago the community boasted a population of 3,796, and posâ€" sessed a taxable assessed value of only $1,857,000. "In 1921, 11 years ago, there were only 850 persons residing in the Toawnship of Teck, and in 1918 the number was apâ€" proximately 500 in Kirkland Lake." It is safe to say that the precaution that was neglected in this case will be carefully observed by all vessels sailing through the Strait in the future. The Bay route has every prospect of estabâ€" lishing a good record, one that will compare well with the records of other commercial routes.

Of Solomon‘s Temple we known |\ a little more. Despite all the luxurious |glory of that great man he lived to improve his mind and he was able to concentrate on the materials which | went into his structures. He laid down definite specifications as to the wood to be used and the stone to be quarried. I Solomon employed the skilled Tyrians to hew and shape the mighty oaks and cedars of Lebanon from the Tyrian side, the Tyrians being the artisans ‘with Hebrew bondsmen as labourers. } so successful were his plans and speciâ€" | fications carried out that the 15,000 | slaves supervised by nearly 3000 overâ€" | seers, transported the materials, cut to measure, and placed them in his great ‘Temple in such a way that no alteraâ€" ' tions were necessary. 4 | _ _A recent bulletin issued by the Doâ€" minion Census Department gives some \ interesting statistics in regard to the mnumber of males and females in the | population of Canada. The proportion | of men to women in the Dominion will \ be surprising to some, though others ’ will find the figures as they expected. ‘ In the cities the women greatly outâ€" | number the men, while in the rural secâ€" ' tions the men outnumber the women. l In the North the men outnumber the ‘ women, though not to as great an exâ€" | tent as was the case some years ago. | â€" In Cochrane District, with a popuâ€" | lation of 58,033, men outnumber woâ€" ‘ men by 10,000; in Kenora, with a popuâ€" i lation of 21,946, men outnumber woâ€" men by 3,000; in Nipissing, population l41,207 men outnumber women 2,500; in Rainy River, population 17,359, there are" 1,800 more men than women; in Thunder Bay, population 65,118, there are 6,800 more men than women, and ! in Temiskaming, population 37,043, | men outnumber women by 5,600. In ‘ Algoma, population 46,444, men outâ€" ‘number women 3,700. i In only five counties of Ontario do | women outnumber men. These are | York, including the greater purt of Toronto, where they are 20,000 in the The chief artisans of the Bible, says Mr. Madlinger, were woodworkers and calls attention to the carpenters menâ€" tioned in Exodus XXXV, 30, the cabiâ€" net makers, and the wheelwrights and adds that their tools were the axe, hatchet, saw, plane and auger. Uses of Wood in East In Palestine and Jerusalem house beams were of sycamore and oak beâ€" cause of their great durability (Isaiah IX, 10) with acacia, oak and palm for columns and traverse beams and cyâ€" press for floors; fir, olive and cedar were also highly prized building woods used among the Hebrews. Wood was used for doors, gates, lattice, flat roofs and wainscoting. Beams woere inlaid in the walls to which the wainscoating was fastened with nails (Ezra VI, 4). There is an everâ€"recurrent question as to the mentioning of oak in the Bible. Of the five Hebrew terms meanâ€" ing tree, three are indisputably oak, even when considered from the vernaâ€" cular (quercus) which now is our reâ€" cogniized generic term for oak in boâ€" tanical© circles. *"Eylon" in common terms means ‘"arbour‘ but in Daniel IV the tree which Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream "strong tree" usually meant oak, and here have our best claim that oak appears in the Bible. Various Species of Oak. Various species of oaks may well be deserving of appelation as mighty trees, as mighty oaks still remain to be seen in Palestine and on Mount Lebanon. In Syria three oaks are left to us from Biblical timesâ€"the prickly evergreen which is the same as Abraham‘s Oak, the Valonia Oak of Bashan and Gilead with a stout gnarled trunk 2 to 4 yards in circumference and from 20 to 30 feet high, and the Oriental Gall Oak, a small tree of Gallee and Samaria, or the Kermes Oaks of the ancient Jews from which a red dye was obtained. Of the oaks beyond the Jordon, the Tyrians made oars and the idolators their images. Under oaks the dead were buried. Mount ‘Lebanon Well Wooded Mount Lebanon was the scource of wood supply throughout the Biblical age and even to this day contains nuâ€" merous species on its slopes including the famous "Cedars of Lebanon," pine, oak, mulberry, sycamore, walnut, popâ€" lar and willow. The cedars were the loftiest and the easiest to cut and therefore they found their way into the temples of Solomon and Jerusalem. "When our Biblical ancestors underâ€" took the erection of a particularly imâ€" portant structure or one which was expected to reflect the best taste of the age, they departed radically from their usual building materials of stone, mud and clay and fashioned into their buildings as much wood as possible," says George J. Madlinger, wood techâ€" nologist of the E. L. Bruce Company, Memphis, Tenn., who made a study of wood species mentioned in the Bible. Wood Favoured Even in the Days of Stone Men Outnumber the Women in the North In Bible Days Various Woods were Known and Studied, Says Wood Expert who has Specially Stuâ€" died the Matter. Ten Men outnumber women by almost 8$,000 in Sudbury district, the fArfal census report recently issued discloses. The total population of this district is 58,251 of which 32,122 are men and 25,â€" 129 are women. In 1921 the total popuâ€" lation wus 43,029 with 23,902 men and 19,127 women. Sudbury is the second most populous district in Northern On«â€" tario. In the entire north there are 41,400 more men than women. n Thousand More District than W District Also h t Also ha jority for etin issued by the D>â€" Department gives some istics in regard to the es and females in the anada.

Cochrane Sudbury Last week Sudbury had an unusual and staggering example of how some p2ople abuse relief. Without any holierâ€" thanâ€"thou attitude it is only fair to say "that no such outrageous abuse of relief has ever been evidenced in Timmins or district. It is true that two or three years ago a woman in a handsome fur coat and other clothes equally expensive applied for one of the Christmas boxes at the Charity Turkey Stag,â€"but she didn‘t get the box. Instead, she was "told off" by Manager "Lap‘"‘ Laprairie In the Sudbury case, however, a woman wearing a fine fur coat, and having a permanent wave that a few days before had set her back about $7.50, drove in a taxi to one of the Sudbury stores and presented a $12.00 voucher for relief clothing for herself and children. . The case was reported at once and investiâ€" gation started promptly. It was found that the woman‘s husband was in steady work, and in addition they ran a small business as a sideline. With so mafy in real neéd of relief, and with the taxpayers so hard run to meet their taxes, the obtaining of relief upon false pretences is one of the most contemptâ€" ible crimes of the present day. Those found guilty should be sternly punished. The punishment should take the form of heavy fines, collected if necessary by confiscation of goods and chattels or property. In all large cities in Canada women outnumber men, whereas in smaller places, and rural counties the situation is reversed. This has been explained by the suggestion that while the men stay at home on the farm, or in the smal! cities and towns, the girls migrate to the larger cities as office workers. In Montreal the disproportion is not quite as great as in Toronto. On Monâ€" treal Island are 509,581 women and 494,287 men, giving greater Montreal a population of 1,003,968. In Quebec province women outnumber men in the industrial centres of Quebec, Levis, Sherbrooke, St. Hyacinthe and Monâ€" treal only. In Nova Scotia, in Halifax and Yarmouth only; in New Brunsâ€" wick in St. John only. In the less inâ€" dustrialized western provinces and Prince Edward Island men outnumber women in every district.

"In 1921, 11 years ago, there were only | 850 persons residing in the Township of | Teck, and in 1918 the number was apâ€"| proximately 500 in Kirkland Lake." : "BRIGHT FAN" DECISION (Winnipeg Free Press) There will be great satisfaction in§ the West over the finding â€"of the:court | of inquiry on the sinking of the steamâ€" | er "Bright Fan" after striking a small | iceberg in Hudson Strait. The decisioni is that, if the ordinary precaution of | maintaining a lookout had been taken,i the accident THE would not likely have | happened and the steamer with its 250,â€" | 000 bushels of wheat would. probably | not have gone to the bottom of the| Strait. | Anything that the Bay route lost | in reputation as a result of the sinkâ€"| ing of the "Bright Fan" has been fully| regained, and the faith of the West in that northern transportation route is | renewed 100 per cent. It is safe to say that the precaution | that was neglected in this case will be | carefully observed by all vessels sailing | through the Strait in the future. The] Bay route has every prospect of estabâ€"| lishing a good record, one that will | compare well with the records of other commercial routes. | peueves: CONSTIPATION w "When you‘re healthy, you‘re happy" "How you feelâ€"and how well you lookâ€"depends fargely upon the food you eat.

Known and Studied, Says Wood | Expert who has Specially Stuâ€" died the Matter. "When our Biblical ancestors underâ€"| took the erection of a particularly imâ€"| portant structure or one which was| expected to reflect the best taste of the age, they departed radically from their| usual building materials of stone, mud and clay and fashioned into their buildings as much wood as possible,"| says George J. Madlinger, wood techâ€"; nologist of the E. L. Bruce Company,| | Memphis, Tenn., who made a study of| wood species mentioned in the Bible. The chief artisans of the Bible, says Mr. Madlinger, were woodworkers and | calls attention to the carpenters menâ€"| tioned in Exodus XXXV, 30, the cabiâ€"| net makers, and the wheelwrights and| l adds that their tools were the axe, hatchet, saw, plane and auger. | Uses of Wood in East | In Palestine and Jerusalem beams were of sycamore and oak beâ€"| cause of their great durability (Isaiah IX, 10) with acacia, oak and palm for| columns and traverse beams and cyâ€"| press for floors; fir, olive and cedar| were also highly prized building woods | used among the Hebrews. Wood was | used for doors, gates, lattice, flat roofs and wainscoting. Beams were inluidf in the walls to which the wainscoating was fastened with nails (Ezra VI, 4). There is an everâ€"recurrent question as to the mentioning of oak in the| Bible. Of the five Hebrew terms meanâ€"| ing tree, three are indisputably oak,| even when considered from the vernaâ€" cular. (quercus) ‘which now is our reâ€" cognized generic term for oak in bo-f tanical© circles. "Eylon" in common | terms means "arbour‘ but in Daniel| IV the tree which Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream "strong tree" usuall'y? meant oak, and here â€"we have our best claim that oak appears in the Bible. | Various Species of Oak. | Various species of oaks may well be | | | | | | | I as mighty oaks still remain to be seen | in Palestine and on Mount Lebanon. In Syria three oaks are left to us from Biblical timesâ€"the prickly evergreen which is the same as Abraham‘s Oak, the Valonia Oak of Bashan and Gilead with a stout gnarled trunk 2 to 4 yards in circumference and from 20 to 30 feet high, and the Oriental Gall Oak, a small tree of Gallee and Samaria, or the Kermes Oaks of the ancient Jews from which a red dye was obtained. Of the oaks beyond the Jordon, the Tyrians made oars and the idolators their images. Under oaks the dead I Mount ‘Lebanon Well Wooded | Mount Lebanon was the scource of wood supply throughout the Biblical age and even to this day contains nuâ€" merous species on its slopes including the famous "Cedars of Lebanon," pine, oak, mulberry, sycamore, walnut, popâ€" lar and willow. The cedars were the | loftiest and the easiest to cut :md? therefore they found their way into | the temples of Solomon and Jerusalem. | Little is known as to the quantity and kind of wood entering the Ark, yet certain is the fact that oak, cedar, sycamore and poptar played important roles. Of Solomon‘s Temple we known a little more. Despite all the luxurious improve his mind and he was able to | on the materials which | went into his structures. He laid down | definite specifications as to the wood; to be used and the stone to be quarried. | Solomon employed the skilled Tyrians | to hew and shape the mighty oaks and cedars of Lebanon from the Tyrian | the Tyrians being the artisans | So successful were his plans and speciâ€" slaves supervised by nearly 3000 ovor-! seers, transported the materials, cut to measure, and placed them in his great Temple in such a way that no alteraâ€" ' tions were necessary. | Women in the North| District than Women. _ Sudbury District Also has 8,000 Maâ€" jority for Men. A recent bulletin issued by the Doâ€"| minion Census Department gives some interesting statistics in regard to the number of males and females in the The proportion of men to women in the Dominion will be surprising to some, though others will find the figures as they expected. I number the men, while in the rural secâ€" | tions the men outnumber the women. | In the North the men outnumber the | women, though not to as great an exâ€" | tent as was the case some years ago. In Cochrane District, with a popuâ€" lation of 58,033, men outnumber woâ€" | men by 10,000; in Kenora, with a popuâ€" men by 3,000; in Nipissing, population 41,207, men outnumber women 2,500;| in Rainy River, population 17,359, there | are‘ 1,800 more men than women; in | Thunder Bay, population 65,118, therei | are 6,800 more men than women, and in Temiskaming, population 37,043,i men outnumber women by 5,600. In Algoma, population 46,444, men outâ€" number women 3,700. Men Outnumber women by almost| 8,000 in Sudbury district, the fArfal | census report recently issued discloses.i ‘ The total population of this district is 58,251 of which 32,122 are men and 25,â€" | In 1921 the total popuâ€" " lation wus 43,029 with 23,902 men and | 19,127 women. Sudbury is the second most populous district in Northern Onâ€"| tario. In the entire north there are| 41,400 more men than women. | In only five counties of Ontario do| women outnumber men. These are York, including the greater purt of Toronto, where they are 20,000 in the ! Sherbrooke, | didn‘t get ! breeder and user of the horse majority, Waterloo, Middiesex, Carl ton and Brant In all large cities in Canada women outnumber men, whereas in smaller places, and rural counties the situation is reversed. This has been explained by the suggestion that while the men stay at home on the farm, or in the to the larger cities as office workers In Montreal the disproportion is not quite as great as in Toronto. On Monâ€" treal Island are 509,581 women and 494,287 men, giving greater Montrceal a population 1,003,968. In Quebec province women outnumber men in the industrial centres of Quebec, Levis, St. Hyacinthe and Monâ€" In Nova Scotia, Ol treal only. and Yarmouth only; in New Brunsâ€" | | wick in St. John only. In the less inâ€" dustrialized western provinces and Prince Edward Island men outnumber women in every district Woman in Fur Coat and Using Taxi was on Relief Last week Sudbury had an unusual and staggering example of. how some prople abuse relief. Without any holierâ€" thanâ€"thou attitude it is only fair to say that no such outrageous abuse of relief i m ; | has ever been evidenced in Timmins or | district. It is true that two or three years ago a woman in a handsome fur | coat and other clothes equally expensive | applied for one of the Christmas boxes at the Charity Turkey Stag,â€"but she the box. Instead, she was "told off" by Manager "Lap" Laprairie In the Sudbury case, however, a woman | and having a | wearing a fine fur coat, permanent wave that a few days before had set her back about $7.50, drove in a taxi to one of the Sudbury stores and $12.00 voucher for relief clothing for herself and children. . The case was reported at once and investiâ€" gation started promptly. It was found that the woman‘s husband was in steady work, and in addition they ran a small business as a sideline. With so mafhy in real neéd of relief, and with the taxpayers so hard run to meet their taxes, the obtaining of relief upon false pretences is one of the most contemptâ€" ible crimes of the present day. Those found guilty should be sternly punished. The punishment should take the form of heavy fines, collected if necessary by confiscation of goods and chattels or property.
