"SALAUA," .TORONTO Jack's Adventures BY LURA E. BENNETT. PART III. Maida's windows were finished, and it was mail time. Jack was nowhere to be seen. Mr. Carleton received a letter from his wife. "Your mother is coming on the 5.35 to -night, Maida. You will meet her?" "Gladly," she answered. "My, won't It seem good to have mother home?" Her father agreed that it would. "I will have Jackson clean the car, I It was nearly one o'clock when Dudley began to slow down. "We are just about to the place where Jack deserted me, while I went back for gas," he said, and shortly after, brought the car to a stop. Mr. Allen got out of the machine and walked about. He looked across the fields at the large white farm- house. "Suppose they could tell us anything?" he asked. "I hardly think so.

The Dominion la periodically concluding new and favorable trade arrangements and those are coming to give her an unique place among the ing na- g, tions of rho globe and causotrndlidatin her place in the world of commerce. In the month of July treaty extend - Ing the most rumored nation treatment between Belgium and Canada was signed by the Canadian Minister of Trade. and Commerce and the Belgian' Consul -General, this incidentally be- ing the firstoccasion on which a treaty enterers into by the Canadian Government was signed in Canada. 'I'itis farms a logical point from which to survey the Dominion'a trade with Belgium and note the substan- tial increase ` the post -War era has brought in the volume of exports go- ing from Canada to Belgium, The in- crements noted are even greater than appears, since a proportion of Cana- dian goods eventually reaching Bel- gium are consigned to Great Britain and are recorded in Canadian trade returns as exports to the United King• dont.? Even so, the increases are re- markable, and the new treaty should, through facilitating trade, swell these still further, In the past fiscal year Belgium was Canada's fifth customer, following the United States„ United Kingdom, France and the West Indies. The total value of trade transacted was $22,793,- 317, of which 35,240,876 represented int- pprtations into Canada from Belgium - and $17,452,442 exports from Canada to Belgium. Almost the entire amount of the export trade was made up of agricultural products, this amounting to $15.264,377. This again was large- ly made up of wheat imports, the value of these being 314,053.335, represent- ing the cost of 12,538,270 bushels. Other imports were: wheat flour, oat- meal and rolled oats, sugar, unmanu- factured tobacco, canned fruit, rub- ber shoes, pneumatic tire casings, kraft wrapping paper, fresh pork, bacon and hams, automobiles, canned salmon, agricultural implements and !asbestos fibre. Remarkable Increase In Export Trade. Whilst the import trade from Bel- gium shows very little movement, the export trade to that country is in- creasing at a very remarkable rate. In the year 1908 Cauada imported from Belgium goods to the extent of 39,380,643; in 1914, 34,491,444. In the pathrs 1tnports b $3 841st,718.ree $4yea,994,767 and"$5,hava340,875 reosh- spectively, In 1908 Canada exported goods to Belgium only to the extent of $2,248,747, or less than the value of her imports from that country. By 1014 exports had double;!, being $4,- 819,843., or slightly in excess of Im- ports. Since the war the export trade has been greatly developed, with sub• stantial increments each year. In 1922 the value of Canadian export trade to Belgium was 312,319,300; in 1923, 312,527,524; and in 1324, 317, 452,442.

Attention was directed during re- cent scientific gatherings in England to the possibility that the coal re- sources of the British Empire may be exhausted within a few centuries. So far as Canada is concerned such a con- tingency seems to he remote. For many years the Canadian Geological Survey has been investigating the coal fields of the Dominion and It has been estimated that the reserve of coal amounts to more than 1,000,000,- 000,000 tons largely lignite, but Includ- ing over 250,000,000,000 tons of bitum- inous coals.
