BUSINESS STILL FACE PROBLEMS OF ADJUSTMENT • INDUSTRY IN CANADA CONTINUES On IN A DEPRESSED CONDITION, SAYS THE FINANCIAL 'POST, The Toronto financial Post of last Saturday 'reVlews the business situa- tion, as follows:— A broad survey 0f the business con_ ditlons in various parts of the Dom- inion leads to the conclusion that 'the problems of the adjustment period have not yet been fully solved. In- dustry is depressed, and with the ex- ception of rare glimmerings of 'im- provement gives little ground for the hope of. an immediate return to nor- mal activity—there has been tattle diminution of the volume of unem- ployment. One hopeful sign is the fact that employers are filially reduc- ing production costs by the, reduction of wages, and when this movement becomes general the way Ott be pre- pared for production In the future at costs which are comparatively normal. The markets for agricultural products and basic materials have slushed to low levels during the course of the past three or four months, and the fact that the production cost factor was held up has, been responsible in large measure for the high cost to the con- sumer. The Financial Post is in re- ceipt of some hundred or more replies to a questionaire submitted to bank managers across Canada. Several phases of the business situation are discussed particularly applying to industry to retrade, to building and to agriculture. From a careful analysis of these replies it may 'be stated definitely that business on the whole, throughout Canada is being con- ducted along restricted lines. • The retailer is meeting altered conditions and is marking his goods down to con- form more closely with replacement values. The extent of this reduction of course varies, but on the whole substational progress has been made. One hopeful feature of the. situation, as revealed through these replies is THE DOMINION Brantford City Council refuses to enact daylight saving. Young deer charges street car in St. John, N.

Currie) National holidays, like Empire Day and Dominion Day, are primarily days of remembrance, But,,while they are all memorials to'a vanished and shad- owy past, they should likewise be our guiding places in the future, They are periods when, in the fever and the fret of modern life, we should pause to think upon the ideals for which our fathers fought, and to examine again our own responsibilities in helping our country to realize our fathers' dream. We do well, on such clays, as the financier would say, to take stock of our original national capital in ideals, and to decide whether that capital has grown or dwindled; we do well to look again at the talent of the parable— this time a national talent — to see -- if it has increased or if it has rusted with the lapse of time. These national holidays are days, above all, when the children of Canada, should hear again the undying story of our country's birth, so that the ideals at the basis of that story shall not be lost. The men w,ho made our homeland and saved it for our empire were men of wide vision and stout courage and deep faith and boundless hope. Our great country was born of their ad- venture and cradled by their solicit- ude it was pioneered by their enterprise and blessed by their religion. Their camp -fires burned in the most distant parts of our Dominion the deepest for- ests of Canada were all sepulchres. But in the hardest places they were always optimists. Above all else they were unselfish. At the basis of their en- deavor and their struggle was the prin- ciple of liberty and Justice between man and stat,the iron belief in the per- fectibility of the human tate, the un- swerving faith in a new country of happiness, founded on righteousness and truth and guided by the sanctity of law. They thought in continents rather than in localities or petty places. It would have been easy for them to lapse into barbarism, surrounded, as they were, by savage tribes and far from the influence of the old home and the old kindly faces, but they walked quietly with God and kept their mothers' faith; they kept to the old ways; they upheld the old traditions and used the ancient speech; and from their faith and their works our coun- try emerged as a land of hope and glory—a wonderful heritage for their children. the fact that the retail trade has not suffered to the same extent as indus- trial • lines of enterprise, The reports indicate that retaafl sales are contin- uing in practically as large a volume as for the corresponding period a year ago. In a number of instances a re- duction Is reported but when it is CtSn- sidered since a year ago, it is quite probable that the volume of goods aetually handled is as large or larger. This condition removes from the con- sumer the pnus of reponsibility for the "buyers' stri'ke." There is .,,no strike, among the consuming public al- though there is no doubt that the in- dividual is buying more carefully and in smaller quantitates, but- he conies back to the market oftener. The re- tailers are /however, adopting a con- servative policy' and are strictly limit- ing purchases to meet immediate needs only stocks in retailers and whole- salers hands must be.'cleared up be- fore manufacturers will again find any- thing like a normal demand. There is a very decided depression in the building trades throughout Can- ada. Very little building is in sight for the immediate future 11 the ma- jority of Canadian cities and towns. In every case the lack of activity in this line is attributed to the high costs of labor, and in a lesser degree to the high costs of materials. The farmer too has suffered with the rest of the community. lie has been forced to sell his season's pro- duce at reduced prices. A large quan- tity of grain has been held in store to await a return of higher prices but the opinion now prevails that the era of high' prices .for farm products is definitely past for the time ' being. Stocks have been fairly well reduced in, consequence.

THE WOLF HUNT ENDED Thursday, MELON AND CUCUMBER These Require a Warm Soil at Planting Time, Different Typos of Melons .Require Different Handling — Flow to Grow Cucumbers and Squash— Raising Rhubarb. • (Contributed by5Ontorio cepartment of Agriculture, Toronto.) Melons are in the class of vege- °tables which require a warm temper - attars; for their growth. The length of time that they require to mature any quantity of fruit is longer. than our period of freedom from frost. For this reason we generally start the seed in a hotbed and give it at least one transplanting before setting in the fletd. There are two methods of growing melons: one which is used with the ,small or pocky Ford type of melons, the other for the large Montreal. The young plants are started the same way in either case. The seed should be started about the lst-15th of May in small pots 1 `" 7j.;1 Dunlop's Strange Visitor Brought To Earth Last Friday. While we owe much to our empire, we must not forget what our empire owes to our land. When our mother- land first tried to solve trite problems of colonies within the empire, she fail- ed, because she did not rightly under- stand the rights of colonizing powers and, as a result, her children cut the hone tie. But w'1r:e the motherland "!ailed by force o'.r fatliers succeeded by comparatively peaceful means in 1837, and in Canada the principle of autpnony within the Empire was born. To the sane methods of Canada in those days the empire largely owes its strength, for New Zealand, Austra- lia, Newfoundland and South Africa followed in our footsteps, That Is surely one of Canada's great co;tri- butions to the estrength of the empire. lin our land to -day, with its great development and its industries, Its mil- lion lights from iron, gold and brass and blazing ores, it may be that the Ideals of our fathers are at tines in danger. of being forgotten. There °are many problems of empire still to be solved and in their solution Canada must take her part. The children of to -day are the men who to -morrow will take up the task, it is to them we must look for the shaping of our coun- try's destiny. There lies the great re- sponsibility, of education, Napoleon ,at- tributed his failure in his Russian cam- paign to his old school teacher. whom, he said, had never told him, as a lad about the Moscow tee and snow that proved his ruin, Our schools are the places for the teaching of truth, not only the material, but the spiritual. Against foes from without and treach- ery from within, the ideals of our an- cestors—the ideals of liberty altd jus- tice and righteousness and the sanctity of law—will be our Country's greatest defence. if We keep then in our piinds Mid Hearts and teach them In our schools, we can look across the ocean 011 our national holidays and proudly say with Whitman: "Have the elder races. halted?

Winghanh, May 3t, — With an exe- cutive of veteran campaigners I re- elected, backed by an exceptionally strong. organization of municipal chair- men, the Liberals of North Huron are confident that their standard will be carried to victory in the next Federal election. It was unanimously decided at The annual Meeting of the North Huron Liberal Association here today to noMinate a candidate at a combined nomination • and organization conven- tion to be held in Wingham some time this month. ' Although the Liberals in' this riding have held no meetings in the past two years, and ,despite a prevailing apathy of the public in this district towards politics at the present time Tuesday's meeting was largelx attend- ed. Delegates were present from every municipality - in the riding, and • the keenest esthusiastn and optimism pre- vailed, r..

When they have outgrown this small pot they should be trans - Planted to 5 -incl pots. We grow two plants of Rocky Ford melons in a pot, but only one of the Montreal type.• For the smell melons we generally plant them in hills four feet apart. We dig out a hole at each place, f111 it nearly to the top with fresh horse manure prepared as if for a hotbed, then cover with six inches of soil. In this soil we set the young Plants when danger of frost Is over. If we wish them a little earlier, we may cover them with a small cold frame about 30 inches square. After three of four melons have set it is well to nip off the ends of the growing shoots. This forces all of the food into the fruit, and makes them grow more rapidly. The melon's should be placed on a board or berry box to keep them off the earth, and turned frequently to make them ripen more evenly. The seed of the Montreal melons is started between the first and mid- dle of April and the plants are shifted to larger pots as they require. About the middle of May we dig -out a fur- row where the row is to be, about 18 inches wide and 18 inches deep, the length of the patch. This we fill near- ly to the top with manure, prepared as it would he for a hot -bed, cover with six inches of soil and cover over with frames and sash. The plants are set in these about every, two feet in the row. These frames are kept over them until all"danger of frost is past. Each day, if the Weather is fit, they must ie carefully aired. After a time the glass is left off entirely during the day, but held close nt hand to be replaced If needed. The plants must be kept carefully watered, as this is very necessary to produce strong growth. Melons and cucum- bers should not be grown close together. Cucumbers aro generally planted in hills three feet apart. Some of the soil is dug out, the hole filled with well rotted manure, three or four inohes of soil are placed over the ma- nure, and the seed planted on the south side. The seed may be planted in many sections by May 2511, as danger of freezing will, in most sea- sons, be over before It is tip, Plant 8-10 seeds in a hill and thin •ihe plants down to three after danger from cucumber beetle is over. We may start some seed in pots as we did our melons, and transplant them into the field after danger of frost is past. If we care to spend the time we may trim the plaints as is done in the greenhouse. This is very simple, once the fruiting habit of the cucum- ber is understood. The cucumber has its male and female parts in separate blossoms, the male flowers being borne lunch more freely. Female flowers are generally borne in the leaf joints near the end of the main stem or in the first leaf joint of the side ehoot:s. The leaf joints nearest ,tinea bear clusters of male flower. If we nip off the end or the shoot just past these male flowers, at the leaf joints new side shoot will appear bearing cucumbers. Continuous trimming, if carefully done, will pro- dpce many more cucumbers and less vine. I Squash seed is planted in the same way as cucumber. We mast, how- ever, give more space between hills on account of their stronger growth. Six feet will be sufficient, We'seldom Ulna .squash. But if we wish larger specimens it is Well to stop all growth after$L few squash have set. Some weeks ago there appeared in the columns of The New Era a report of a wolf having been seen in the vic- inty of Dunlop. Small credit was at first attached to this report, until two farmers suffered attacks upon their flocks of sheep, several being killed in each flock. • A few of the better marksmen of the community were summoned and kept silent watch at concealed stations in a barn while the sheep were allowed the freedom of an immediate enclosure. After two long patient nights' watch- ing they were successful in shooting and killing, on Friday last, a fully grown male coyote bearing a leather collar with plain nickel plop, but Nav- in no identification or inscriptio.i. The animal aroused much curiosity and speculaton as to its origin. Many came to see tit and verify the reports that seemed to savor of a fairy tale, a wolf at large in this part of the country being something unknown to the present generation. It is con- jectured that it escaped from captivity somewhere in the north and made its way down the lake shore. 'i•he people of the vicinity are 110 doubt properly grateful to those who persisted in running the animal to earth. 1t is believed that it was alone and that now it is out of the way the owners of sheep or poultry may have no fear of further serious losses, , House Commit'tbe reports favorably to Commons on proportional repres- entation,.
