EXTENDING OPERATIONS.•
The Canadian Flax Mills are piling
up the (ias at tlrc•local mill and are
now threshing, etc. The . Com-
pany has only been in ,.i•xis�tettce a
few years, but it bas been gradually -
extending its operations and now has
mills at ('Linton, Moots -add, I)resdon,
Wallaceburg and Alvinstone with crop
at other points. `The intention of the
Company is to establish a f', inning
mill but so far they have found so
ready' and piiofitable a market for the
raw, material that they have .]been
content to dispose. of it in that way.
Last season they disposed of • 7,000
bushels of a;ed in Holland, Belgium
and France and reports which have
reached then] say that it has' turned
out well.
The securing of labor for flax pull-
ing has been comparatively easy, In-
dians from the southern reserves be-
ing available and ellieient. !Jut it has
cost all told, said Mr. G. A. Turner,
Manager of the Company, to The
News -Record on Wednesday, eight
dollars an acre for the pulling.
• For several seasons experiments
have been carried on with the 'result
that a device that is now fairly sat-
isfactory bas been obtained. It is

tenary of the Church o£.,England in (,
Canada and.: in connection. the open-
ing of a :e?Jendid new cathedral it1

hist twit interest, will no doubt at-
tract a vast crowd to the ancient
• city. The celebration is in eoinmeatt-
oration of the first recorded
instance of a service held on
the Canadian mainland . accord-
ing to the usage of the Church
of England, aril was a service . of
thanksgiving for the. victory. of Brit-
rsh • arms held in the French fort of
!'ort Royal, , since called Annapolis!
Royal in honor of :Queen Anne, in
whose reign the sixth and final cap-
ture of the fort took place. The of-
ficiating clergy were Rcv. John Har-
rison and Rev. . Samuel Ilesker.
Since that- time the Church of Eng-
land has extended its influence all
over the Dominion and. today num-
bers twenty-two Canadian• dioceses.
The Congress, which will cover sev-
eral days, is not by any means a
