The Wool Situation Toronto, August 16th, 1920. Dear Sirs: Since our last letter the wool mar- ket has taken on a much stronger tone at least in so far as this organ- ization is concerned. During the past six weeks we have sold slightly more than 1314. million pounds of the 1920 clip at prices that should prove very satisfactory to the sheep raisers of Canada. These sales have been about Equally divided between Eastern and Western wools and over half of the quantity has been supplied to Can:- when an-adian Mills. Prices on the above sales have ranged approximately as follows: Eastern Wool; Fine Medium Staple 58 to 60 cts. per lb.; Medium Staple 52 to 55 cts.; Low Medium Staples 40 to 45ats,; Low Staple 32 to 30 cts,; Coarse 24 to 25 ets, Western Range Wool; Fine Staple 51 to 53 cts. per lb.; Fine Clothing 48 to 52 cts.; Fine Medium Staple 58. to 60 cts.; Fine Medius) Clothing 54 to 57 cts.; Medium Staple 43 to 40 Ms, • These prices es seeurecl are certain.. ly Touch batter than offerings anode at eozu)try point s this season and should clearly :dennonarrate to woof growers the real worth of co-opera- tive marketing, tint very enoouragv ing feature about sales made up to date is the foot that many of the buyers are old eustolners of 121,8 and 1910, This goes to prove two things: First: The sheep owners of this Country afe gradually, learning to, put their wool up, in a style that ap- peals to the mill men, properly shorn and rolled, tied with paper •twine and free from all foreign matter.' Heretofore Canadian Mills hove been prejudiced against Canadian wool, looking upon) it as an,unknown quanti- ty, Second. Proper grading is tea- ching the farmer that he calif expect exactly what his wool is worth. Fur- thermore the grading 'system as now established is gaining theconfidence of Canadian Mills. They know *that .the grades will run true to standard and that when shipment is made it will be in accordance with the sample submitted.' `There can undoubtedly be built-.. up right here in ' Canada amongst Canadian Mills a demand, for Canadian wool.-' Yours very truly, Canadian.

In the new schedule filed with the Board of Railway Com- missioners we have so grouped cities and towns of approximately equal telephone development as to wipe out these inequalities. The rates for exchange service proposed for. Clinton under the new schedule are shown in the following table. Proposed Business Service Monthly Rate Individual line - - $2.75 2 -Party line - - 2.25 , Residence Service 4' Individual line 2 -Party line Rural party service $2.00 1.75 1.75 la new rates, we submit, should be considered in the light} of the present purchasing power of the dollar, They compare favorably, with the increased rates which telephone companies have had to secure from public service bodies all over the continent, The commodities we have to buy—labor and material—have. advanced in no lesser degree than have those staples of every day use, the cost of which has made present living expenses so high. , THE BELT.

That's exactly what we have done! Shareholders of the Bell Telephone Company of Canada have been paid only a moderate return on the par value of their stock — no morel We have made no distributions of bonus stock, no `melons' have ever been cut; no distribution ever been made of surplus earnings. Every share of stock has brought us its par value, or better. For forty years" we have consistently used all surplus earnings, all idle reserves to buy more telephone plant. Every dollar has gone back into the business to extend it and serve new subscribers. \What has this policy meant eothepubllc? The Board of Railway Commissioners at our last rate investiga- tion found that if we had not pursued this honorable course of turning all surplus earnings back into the business we would have had to provide in theyear 1918 alone an additional $908,000 out of revenue to pay interest on the plant so secured. This, of course, would have meant higher rates to subscribers. 'The fact is, we need millions of new money just because our funds have always been at work, keeping down our bond and stock issues, and ensuring low rates to our subscriberst TH 1 BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OI' CANADA r> •
