Traffic in °teeniergsrine, A. despatch from Ottawa ays: An Order -in -Council has been passed upon the recommendation of the Food Controller allowing, on and after Nov: 14th, the manufacture and sale in Canada of oleomargarine and its im- portation free of duty. Suspension of the prohibition of its manufacture, impart or sale is a wear Measure only, and will apply while the present' ab- normal conditions continue, The con elusion of such period is to be deter- mined by the Governor -General -in - Council. The recommendation of the Food Controller was made .because the high cost of production and the demand for export wrere putting the price of but- ter so high that many people were un- able to purchase it. To reduce the price arbitrarily would have been un- fair to the producer. The Food Con- troller states that the dairy interests will not suffer by reason of the sale of oleomargarine in Canada. 11, S. Coal For Canada.

War orders have been piling in ever since, while f acilities for import and distribution have declinedrapidly..%To meet the problems of distribution this'yarehouse was established and has proved an important link between, Canadian and Australian producer 'and the Canadian manufacturer. 33 mt.fre IOU LIKE II; DIDI•er by 00.5 in of one c w'. antrai 0 of In Of war at or 'ring i more munition factories e east. bog o leave Dawson on reit- last trips the south, and the usual fall exorlus is under way by Klondikers who will winter on the coast.

As viticulture and horticulture are the chief means of livelihood for the. greater part of the population of southwestern France, the development and successful employment of a sub- stance designed to prevent in. a large degree the heavy losses occasioned an- nually by the late spring frosts in the vineyards and orchards of the region is of exceptional interest and value not only to French fruit growers and wine producers, but also to 'Cane. The protective substance, known in France as "agelarine" or anti -frost, it is reported, is a vegetable deriva.tive conipomded from' the juices of certain plants, altd contains no ingredients of a corrbsive nature. It is _of a _fluid character 'and may be handled In the ordinary 'hand spray pump, although after it has been applied and is ex- posed to the air it assumes a waxy consistency and has the appearance of a sugared or resinous coating which it is .claimed despite heavy rainfall en- dures for two td five weeks. Persons who have employed , this treatment have observed that the bud is not weakened by the product. For use on fruit trees, such as peach, apri- cot, aPple, cherry or almond, the ape plication should be made before the Tleriod of blossoming; for walnut trees before the appearance of any vegeta-., tion.
