k
• 2hetide of immigration flowing to
this country has been growing higher
and higher since the off-year of 1947.08
The following are the figures:
1907-190x' 262,469
1908.1919 .. 1411,908
19119-1910
1910-1911
1911-1912
1912-1913 .
This year probably half a
come, unless something
check the stream.
It must be confessed that while this
country will soon be able to absorb
half a million settlers a year, it can-
not possibly do this at the present time.
The Government statistics make it
clear that the great majority of the
immigrants have been heading for the
industrial places, and the rush in the
last three years to Ontario is very
marked. In 1912-1913 actually a ma-
jority of settlers remained east of Lake
of the Woods.
O: e.3area, were are no hard times in
the country, and no excuse for a cala-
mity cry. But owing to the peculiar
financial stringency that has got hold
of Canada, as well as other countries,
it is not at all unlikely that even with-
out added immigration there may be a
good many out of work in the cities
east and west in the course of the
coming winter. Everything is es-
sentially sound, but a period of finan-
cial readjustment is in progress.
It would be better if the immigration
department world at least suspend its
activities for six months or a year, or
even positively discourage Britons and
foreigners, excepting farm laborers
and domestic servants, from coming,
until the country has got by the string-
ency and digested the arrivals of 1913.
In the depression of 1907-08, the Govern-
ment promptly took steps to check the
influx with the success which the figures
above for 1008-09 show. Thus the un-
employment evil was minimized. At
the same time the Government's action
in requiring each imrnigrant to be in
possession of e50 did not discourage any
who were fully prepared for their ad-
venture, and soon the tide rose again,
with renewed prosperity, higher than
ever. Some step taken at once by the
Government to check immigration,
particularly of urban people, for the
rest of this year, may prevent much
dissatisfaction and hardship.

TUE WINCH
DE ITER SIGNS IN THE WEST.
(From The Financial Post.)
A prominent Canadian who makes an
annual trip through the West has re-
cently returned from his 1913 visit He
is a man who hr.s never been particu-
larly optimistic about that part of the
country. The serious problems which
the west has to meet, in fact, have al-
ways been very prominent in his view.
This year he is more hopeful, however,
because of the fact that the mixed
farming propaganda has been making
harked headway. Very real progress
has been made during the past year
and both Alberta and Saskatchewan
are now spending much money in fur-
thering a more scientific type of farm-
ing. They are sending out mixed farm-
ing special trains with lecturers and
demonstrators, while the C.P.R.,
through its press agency department,
is doing much to educate the country
in diversified agriculture,
A group of milk cans is this year a
common sight at the stations in many
parts of these Provinces, From two to
one hundred hogs per farm are common,
while cattle and poultry are more usual
as farm products than last year. The
papers a day or two ago, indeed, an-
nounced that the C,P.R. had shipped
from the West, in the first six months
of this year, 118,000 hogs from a cer-
tain number of stations, as against 72,-
000 from the same stations for the
whole of the preceding year. These
facts mean a great deal to the West
and to the whole of Canada. '''hey
mean that the farmer and the district
in which he lives is benefitted as re-
gards economic conditions and has
money to spend all the year instead of
during one period chiefly. The risks of
such mixed farming are very much
scattered, whereas the wheat farmer
is to a considerable extent a gambler on
the result of his year's labor.
The agricultural change is sure to
place the cost of living on a more nor-
mal- basis, which will ultimately help
the West to develop industries and thus
insure a more permanent development
than would otherwise result after the
chief building era in the West has
passed.

The readers of this paper will be
pleasecj to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science
has been able to cure in all stages,
and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca-
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly on the blood and mucuous sur-
faces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and giv-
ing the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have
so much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for
any case that it fails to cure. Send for
list of testimonials.

HEROES FOR CASH,
brave Deeds Accomplished For this
Picture-P,alac3 Patron.
Amongst the strange oceupationa
tftlle0l into existence by the moving
1 ,cture boom, surely the queerest fs,, 4'
that of the "dud spatter," as he les
Palled.
One Spotter, at least, • attaehed
permanently to each of the specialty-
built
pecialtybuilt studios --high buildings of glass,
an.I iron -wherein the leading picture -
play producing companies film their
scenario$.
His business is carefully to follow
the production of the pictures, and
r note the costumes of -the players, anti
the way they are worn.
The reasons far this is that the var-
ious scenes in any one play are not
necessarily filmed consecutively. For
example, one showing the villain leav-
ing the perseeuted heroine in tears in-
side a room, may be photographed
weeks before the scene that shows him
stepping out into the open to encoun-
ter the avenging hero on the doorstep.
although on the screen one scene fol-
lows a second or two after the other.
Actors and actresses are liable to
forget, in these circumstances, what
they were during such and 'such a
scene, and how it was ---nr3, and it
is the duty of the spotter to set theta
right.
Bird -scaring, again,- is a juvenile
calling that is generally associated
with agriculture and life in the open
fields. But inside most of the studios
also a- lad is employed in bird -scaring
during the actual filming of the
scenes.
Speaking of the camera man, it may
be mentioned that he has an assistant.
known familiarly as the "paint guy."
It is his business to superintend the
"make-up" of the performers, which 1s
of a peculiar type, and altogether
different from that practiced by or-
dinary actors and actresses.
Cheeks and Iips, for instance, have
to be dyed blue instead of red, and
anything that has to come out white
on the picture, as, for example, s
girl's throat, is dyed yellow.
An actress, therefore, in evening
dress made up to play before the cam-
era is not an altogether pretty sight.
Then there is the individual known
as the "faller Off."
This man earns his living by falling
off precipices, out of aeroplanes, over
railway bridges, and so on, in scenes
where it is impossible to use a dum-
my. This is his sole business, He doea
nothing else but heroic deeds.
For example, supposing the hero,
after a desperate struggle with the
villain, is hurled over the edge of the
rock gorge, and goes rolling and tumb-
ling down the steepy sloping bak
to the bottom.
Up to the point where he has, in
stage parlance to do a "break -away."
he goes at it, of course, for all he is
worth. But he is not the man you
see pitch over the cliff and roll to
the bottom. He leaves that part of the
business to the faller -off, the camera
being stopped for a minute or two to
enable the men to change places.
Of course, he is made exactly to
resemble the hero, and it is impos-
sible for the audience to detect the
difference when the picture is thrown
on the screen so everybody is satle
fled. The hero who is a highly pal_
artist is glad to be relieved of the un-
pleasant and dangerous part of the
scene, the company is pleased because
it does not have to run the risk of
having one of the leading actors in-
jured and laid up for an indefinite
period, while the faller -off, who is ins
variably a trained athlete, and harts
as nails, rarely suffers any worst hurt
than a few superficial cuts and bruis-
es, andnot always even these.
Probably amongst all the people
who specialize in the production of
picture -plays, however, there is none
whose work is so arduous and exact-
ing as the general property man. For
anything and every thing that goes
wrong with the inanimate machinery
of a drama he is held responsible.
Supposing for instance, that one of
the players takes up a watering -can
to water some plants, only to discov-
er, when it is to late, that there is no
water in it. That film is ruined, the
action has to take place all over
again.
Result -a whole morning's • work
wasted. Further result -a sorry hour
for the "G.M.P."
'The White Nights,
June is the month of the "white
nights" in the far north. In Fin-
land one can read a newspaper in the
open air at midnight, and the sky
is bright with a tender, gentle radi-
anee, There is no break betwe'n
the sunset and dawn„ and the same
rosy flush serves for both, Strlrr;y
speaking, summer in Finland is just
one long day. The moment ate first
star glimmers in the south it is a
sign that autumn is at hand. The
Iong period of light exercises a mar-
velous effect upon vegetation, and
the leaves of trees grew ,to an enor-
mous size. The development of
plant life is crowded into a few
weeks, but it is none the less per-
fect for that, `
