This is so because many Canadians 'who formerly "went South" for the winter months have discovered that there are attractions right at home which compare favorably with anything that is offered south of the inter- national frontier and at a value of one hundred cents in the dollar. People are watching their money and their own homelands these days. Itis fashionable to spend the winter in one'sown land. Over in England, "it's being done", for the cream of fashionable society, headed by H. R. 13.`the Duke of Connaught, has decided that mo- ney spent at home is a patriotic and practical gesture in these days when everyone is hoping that the turn in the depression has 'come audit behooves the nation to con- serve its pennies in every possible manner. Here in Canada, the new domestic loan has just been suc- cessfully financed; the wheat situ- ation and other things are heralded as harbingers of better things and Mr. " and Mrs, Canadian are' in- vestigating the family prospects for the winter of 1991-32. The result is that they find that one perfectly, good Canadian dollar remains so in Canada, whereas it gets clipped of some 15 perfectly good cents elsewhere. The answer is simple.

In the early days he :followed various callings, As a mason 'and. 'builder many: !rouses still standing in town and vicinity were constructed by hint. He was an ex- cellent wood worker, a watch and clock maker and in fact there ntwese few thiings in the mechanical line that 'he could not do and do well, He had perhaps 'a larger acquaintance thao any other man in the county and was universally 'loved and esteemed.

Canada is the pioneer in fish culture on this continent. The first fry hatched from artificially fertilized eggs in Canada were produced in 1858 and fish culture was established as a Dominion Government service in 1867. Britishers are eating Canadian eggs this year with their break- fast bacon. Estimates for 1931 place a figure of 20,000 cases, each of 30 dozen eggs, for export to Great Britain, Last year it was only 6,500 cases. The fur trade is still one of Canada's big assets. In 1667 furs to the value cf 550,000 francs were exported to Franco: Last year their value was placed at '517, 187,399, mostly to Great Britcin and the United States, Grain traffic handled by the Canadian Pacific for October last shows a considerable increase over that carried for October. 1930, A total o. 17,921 cars was loaded last month from the Prai- rie Provinces as compared with a total of 13,673 cars In October, 1910.
