A despatch from Toronto says : Competition for the fruit trade of Western Canada is so keen that Mr. James ' Parnell, Spacial Market Commissioner at Winnipeg, in a re- port issued on Thursday, warns •On- tario shippers that only the very beef must be offered if they expect to control the market. Ontario fruits are acknowledged to be bet- ter quality than British Columbia shipments, but ,shipments from the Pacific Province and the western States show excellent stock, well graded and packed, which reaches the market in a splendid condition. Mr. Parnell suggests that prices for apples are likely to decline. Good sales are reported in the country, but city buyers are mak- ing Iight purchases in the hope of Cheaper prices later on, "With the keen competition between east and west it looks as if the growers will have to take lower prices. Ship- pers should exercise great carein packing their apples, as there is an extra staff of inspectors on, who are examining carefully each ship- ment, and all shipments should come up to the `fruit market ant.' "Many of our Ontario growers are shipping out fruit that will hold its own with the best of quality, pack and condition on arrival. In other cases, however, too little at- tention is being paid to grading and packing, ,some varieties of plums and :peaches being shipped here that will not hold up and are arriving in bad shape, which has a tendency to lower the pricers of fruit coming in right," Mr. Parnell states that the mar- ket has been crowded all week with foreign fruit, whieh has caused quite a. drop'in prices.

LONDON'S FIRE RECORD: Recently published, statistics deal- ing with fires in London, England, show that in 1911 there were 4,455 fires (1,250 more than in 1910), this number being greater than any're- corded in previous years. One hun- dred and twenty lives were lost and it is estimated that 100 persons were rescued from burning build- ings. From an executive point of view the feature of the year was the increase in motor appliances, the first of which was introduced in 1906. There are now 40 motor vehi- cles in use and several others' in course of construction. The per- sonnel of the . brigade has grown from 420 officers and men in 1878 to 1,380 at the present time. A TIME FOR EVERYTHING. The brave ship was wallowing in the waves that threatened to engulf. her at any moment. Hastily the captain ordered a box of rockets and flares to be brought to the rail, and with his own hands ignited a number of them in the hope that they would be seen and the passen- gers and crew rescued. Amid the glare of the rockets a tall, 'thin, austere -looking individual found his way to the skipper. "Captain," said he, "I must pro- test against this foolhardiness.' We are now facing death ; this is no time for fireworks 1" ECONOMY. "There's an economical girl for you." "As to how 2" "Eats a 5 cent lunch every day."
