It has been generally assumed, and
with sufficient justidcetlon, that the
world's choicest wheat is grown on
the American continent. Tbue the
premier wheat grower of the conti-
nent has received the distinction of
champion among the world's wheat
producers; and his product considered
unexcelled the world over. This en-
viable

consistently serurod without excep-

It is not long slatee the suggestion
that wheat could be grown at all suc-

was met with the profoundest scep-
theisnt. Now, Canada has not only as-'
seined third place among the mutions
of the world in the amount it grows
annually, but successfully maintains
its claim yearly to superiority of
quality over other lands. And in the
three Western provinces there are yet
thousands of acres of land, of the

The answer is no. The next genera-

"The sentiment against maternity

and the percentage avoiding repro-

will be more fecund than the last. The
desire to avoid maternity will die out

and leave a more fertile race Than be-

THE HANDLING OF
RAILROAD BAGGAGE
CANADIAN RAILWAYS
ARE EFFICIENT.
Vast Accumulation of Un-
claimed Articles—Mummy
Found in Storage Room.
To those not intimately acquainted
with the work, the handling of bag-
gage -car traffic may seem prosaic and
unimportant. This 1s not so, for the
careful and prompt handling of bag-
gage 1s of great personal Interest to
the owner, and the loss or abuse of,
or delay to, that property, causes both
criticism and condemnation.
It is estimated that the average
piece of baggage to -day Is valued at
approximately two hundred dollars,
although the liability of railroad trans-
portation companies is limited to one
hundred dollars for all the baggage of
an adult passenger, The average bag-
gage car, between given points, car-
ries about one hundred pieces per
trip, with a total car average value of
320,000.00, The average trunk alone
to -day costs not less than 326.00, a
good grip or suit case not much Iess;
therefore„ great care should be exer-
cised in the handling of these articles.
The question of promptness is ur-
gent. it is pleasing to the passenger
to find hitt or her property in the
house or hotel room within a reason-
able time after arrival, as clean
clothes or change of dress is desired,
and the commercial man may wish to
exhibit his samples 'promptly. Delay
to baggage generally means Incon-
venience and often loss of temper,
while the property that has disappear-
ed causes a great deal of discomfort to
mind and body and serious monetary
loss.
Old Stage Coach Days,
Why should the railways carry any
baggage free is a question that has of-
ten been asked. In the old stage
coach days, a traveller was permitted
to carry his portmanteau on top of the
coach without charge and this estab-
lished a practice whlcdl has remained
in effect ever since. It really means
that in addition to the passenger get-
ting transportation for himtelf for a
certain fare, he gets also without fur-
ther charge the tree carriage of 150
lbs, of baggage with insurance of 3100
In case the property is lost or dam-
aged. This property if sent by ex-
press would coat the owner about one-
titth of wlsat he pays for personal
transportation.
Although the railways collect
charges on baggage of excess weight
and excess value and for storage of'it,
in addition to cbarges for transporta-
tion of baby carriages, dogs, eta, the
Baggage Department is, by no means,
a paying one; the revenue collected
would not pay one-tenth the cost.
Not only Is the personal baggage
of the passenger taken care of, but
baby carriages, dogs, bicycles, too)
chests, guns, fishing rods, curling
stones, skis, toboggans and the para-
phernalla of the goiter are carried:
This really excludes all that one might
require when taking a rail journey for
business or pleasure,
The contort of the passenger is al-
ways studied, and, today, between the
larger cities; where transfer coin
panies operate, one may have one's
effects checked through from resi-
dence or hotel in one city to resi-
dence or hotel in another. A passen-
ger sailing from the Atlantic parts of
Halifax, St, John, Quebec or Montreal
may check his baggage through from
an interior point In Canada or the
iUnited States to his port of landing in
Great Britain or the European conti-
nent.
One of its mournful duties is. the
transportation of the bodies of the
dead. Careful sehooling has educated
raihoad employees to exercise the
greatest respect and consideration in
the moving of this class of traffic and
for the feelings of relatives or friends,

The Baggage Department of a rail-
way also has under its wing the hand-
ling of the most valuable and perish-

must be handled with the greatest des-

milk at the larger centres, one may
see the vehicles of a hundred dealers
around the milli platform taking the
milk to the factory for pasteurization,
bottling and delivery to consumers.
Surely this is important traffic, and
deserving of the best care and atten-
tion that can be given it. Our Cana-
dian railays appreciate this fact, and
have gone far towards promoting ef-
ficlent handling. Special trains have
been run to care for a few pieces of
baggage that had unfortunately been
overlooked. In the year 1920, the
Canadian Pacific Refhvay alone hand-
led 6,371,000 pieces of passengers' bag-
gage, and of this vast number but 71
pieces were lost, 200 were damaged,
more or less, and about 50 pieces de-
layed, so small a percentage as to run
into the thousand decimals. There
were 13,000 bicycles, 21,000 doge, 28,-
