A heavy frost in many sections of
Ontario on Sept. 24th caused wide

practically all the corn was very
badly frozen. Potato tops were also

and vegetable crops. The result will

damage. Wellington County pota

from
year’s Fair to Youth in Agriculture.
It was felt that the Royal could add
something like a new service to the
"higher education” in agriculture
which has been a feature of its aim
for the past 15 years, and is moti
vated by the desire that the vital
relationship of "Youth in Agricul
ture” should be realized by the
Canadian public—in other words,
that the. claims and aspirations of
youth should be set forth by the
'■voice of youth” itself. The Royal
plan is being co-ordinated with ad
mirable work being done perma
nently by the Canadian Council on
Boys’ and Girls’ Club Work.

Premier Duplissis of Quebec is
quoted as saying:
" . . strange that British capital
was invested in Argentina and other
(South American and foreign coun
tries, but that unfortunately very
little was invested in Quebec.”
Upon his quotation The Ottawa
Journal makes the following illum
inating comment that every Cana
dian will do well to consider.
The explanation, we think, large
ly lies in the fact that Quebec in
the past has been financed by Cana
dian capital, and in particular by
Quebec capital,

things more highly.
has been needed Quebec itself has
provided the money. Her issues o!
public securities have not been fre
quent, and while many Quebec bonds
have gone to London the great bul'k
is held in the province.
Quebec provincial bonds are close
ly held, and they command a price
as high as or higher than similiar
securities issued by the Dominion
Government. H. C. Monk and Com
pany report, for example, that for
4 1-2 percent. Quebec bonds due in
1956 a price of 114 1-2 is bid, with
no offers. At the same time Dom
inion bonds of the same yield and
the same maturity are selling at 112
to 113.
This is proof of Quebec’s high
standing in the money markets, but
at the same time offers some ex
planation of the fact that British
capial has had comparatively little
to ro with her financing. If Quebec
had flooded the market with bond
issues over the years, with periodi
cal flotations in London, Quebec
would be better known in London
but her debentures might not com
mand so high a price.
Furthermore, Mr. Duplessis, will
not fail to
just at this
minion as
prestige in
evitable result of the policy of some
parts of this country in the matter
of their obligations to investors.
Capital seeking investments de
mands security above everything
else. British financiers have not
failed to note certain events which
raise some doubt in theii* minds as
to the safety of their money in this
country. iMr. A'berhart in Alberta
has cut the interest rates on gov
ernment securities and interfered
with private debts. In Ontario Mr.
Hepburn’s business with the Hydro
contracts was disturbing. Scores of
Canadian municipalities have de
faulted on their bond interest. Mr.
McGreer, of Vancouver, kept the
wires busy for weeks with talk of
bankruptcy and default—that was_
before Vancouver launched its pub
licity drive for its jubilee celebra
tion. Even from Quebec’s own
Montreal has come talk of an arbi
trary cut in bond interest rates and
other disturbing information.

A tree will grow from 5
in diameter in a much shorter per
iod than it takes one to grow from
a seedling to a tree 5 inches in dia
meter. If it required the same
number of years, it means according
to the table that a- tree puts on six
times the volume of wood growth
when .growing from 5-10 inches aa
it does from a seedling to a tree 5
inches in diameter.
It is much better financial pro
position to have an income from a
property every year or periods
20 years rather than every
years as in the case when the
is cut clean.
Another vital reason why
should not be clean cut is that the
land is liable to be cleared and the
people are realizing more every year
that too much land is already clear
ed. The farmer often pastures a
clean cut wood in order to secure
revenue from the land. The stock
browse the young trees. If the
land is sandy, shallow, swamp or is
on a steep hillside it will be found
in the swamp, waste or barren class
ification rather than the
woodland classification.
A much better method
ing woodland is to follow
tion system. This may be
mum diameter limit or the trees
that are to be removed may be
.fnarked by blazing or daubing them
with paint. This is much to be pre
ferred to a minimum diameter limit,
as there are many trees under1 th®
diameter limit that should be cut
and others above that should be
left, as they are healthy and are at
the stage, when they are putting on
the maximum and also more valuable
wood growth.
