THE TOWN OF WINGHAM SPE- CIAL 'BILL PASSED BC GOVERNMENT The Special Bill of the Town of Wingham providing for extending' the time for the repayment of the Loan; advanced by. the Town to the Gunn - Son -Ola Company in the year 192o, for a further period of Ten years, with certain stipulations regarding pay- ments, carne up for hearing at the Parliament Buildings, Toronto,' on Tuesday, March 6th,, before the Pri- vate Bills Committee of the Legisla- tive Assembly and was passed. This Act benefits both the Town and the. Gunn -Son -Ola Company, and the President of the. Company is now making arrangenientd for factory ex- tension to facilitate increased produc- tion. The sales this year, so far, helve shown a decided "increase over those of .last year which was the best in the Companay's history. It is the intention. of .the officers of the Com- pany to install several nervi up-to-date machines and take on more employ- ment as, soon as the space now occu- pied by Messrs. Fry & Blackhall Ltd. is vacated. The Town will undoubt- edly be compensated many times over for its assistance, if only from the em- ployment angle which is the basic suc- cess of all Western Ontario towns. The Bill was introduced by our' lo- cal member, Mr. Charles A. Robert= son, who in turn introduced iMayor. Fells and then J. W. Bushfield, who' as solicitor outlined and presented the facts of the Bill to the House. CARD OF THANKS Councillor Thomas.Waeson emphat- ically denies he is the free-tratter whose only vote was recorded in Ward 5, in the Fry & Blackhall Limited By-law vote.

PLANT MORE TREES Hamilton, Ont., Feb. 28, 1928. To the Editor. Dear Sir:- At our present rate of forest pro- ducts consumption of one million acres per year, which is annually in- creasing rapidly, how long will our forests last? Some estimate 10 years, sonic 20 years, and some 30 years. . Departmental reports show refor- estry progressing ata fair pace, but the earliest prediction is about ,50 years before a new cut could be re- sold to advantage, and then not be nearly so valuable as our present or- iginal fully matured growth. Repots of recent pulp wood sales show show in one township a sanalr quan- tity sold at Six* per cord; in an- other a larger quantity at $2,0o, and in still another a very large quantity at $3,00 and a few -cents per cord, The general cost prediction of 're - forestry is $,s;oo per cord, and many predict the cost will be' nearer. $40.00, blit , whether the estimated time for growth and coif is • .-really right, or, wreng, why sell fully me- tered pulp wood at .'say $3.00 per cord,, when it costs $25.00to repro- duce an inferior quality? I believe it is well worth this price right now and especially for, export. If we are going to continue, per- mitting raw pulp wood to be 'export- ed, why not charge $25.00 per; cord on the stump right now? (at least as much as reforestley will cost), then instead of the settlers cutting, haul - Mg, piling at the rail or water shipping points at $7.00 per cord, they will get $25.00 per cord, plus the cost of aftting, 'hauling, etc. This would encourage settlers in our timber areas, because they would not cut their homestead's clean for a number of years, which might help our ininigration policy, for an abundance of employment is the only thing that really attracts immigration.

CARD OP THANI((S. Mr. and Mrs, Daniel Martin and l family •wish to take this opptrrtunity of thanking their many kind friends and neighbours for the kindness shown during the time of their rec., cnt sad bereavement, FI I note the greater part of the proposed . Arboretum on University Avenue and extensions, are to be designed entirely for beauty, hoping ultimately to produce the most beautiful spot on earth. Why not turn to the practical side and employ the greater part of the Arboretum with practical and ex- perimental reforestry, : which would be ever so much more.li.nteresting to observers, and which- is as beautiful as though it were entirely ornamen- tal. Such a spot of practical refor- estry in the centre of our Provincial Capital would heviewedby millions of people, as compared with a few hundreds or thousands that might be sufficiently interested to go to the rather remote Government ex- perimental plots of today. Why not make our frills practical, useful, and profitable, as well as or- namental, , and thereby get a suffi- ciently practical return for our larger investments, with the beauty side thrown hrown in. To illustrate:—the Brampton rose and, orchid •garden as . a practical. and profitable .commercial concern is far more beautiful and interesting than any exclusive display spot. So that pubis ownership only requires the practical side put into it, to make it the greater success. Let us try the practical°and prof- itable side of the question :01 our proposed new Arboretum on 'Uni- versity .Avenue. In fact most of our present :Pub- lic beauty spots could ue easily con- verted to the practical end, profitauie side.

We Take Great B'r'ide In the high Standing Attained In Education, Having Reason to Believe She Falls Below No Other Country In 712his Regard. Distinguished visitors to Canada very 'frequently single out the edu- cation of the.con atxy, the extent nt of its facilities, the breadth' of its- op- portunity, and the exeelleinee of its institutions, for special meritorious comment, says .Agricultural and In- dustrial Progress in Canada. Canada, a young country of comparatively small population, does, in fact, 'take great pride in the high standing shc.' has attained in education, having reason to believe she falls below no other country in this regard, It is the Dominion's boast . that not only are adequate elementary school'faci- lities available to every child in her domain, but that higher education is also within reach of them all. •'Phis is as assuranee of some moment to the contemplating settler. The latest statistics available show 2,228,875 enrolled in all educational institutions in Canada, roughly about. one-quarter of the total. population at the time. 'In the same year there were more than 82,000 in ,regular university and -college courses in the Dominion, or one in. every less' than three hundred of the •Dominion's population, while taking into the reckoning the large number unrolled in various ,extension courses of the universities, at least 60,000 persons in Canada come within the sphere of university teaching', or one in about. every 130 of the population; In agricultural, commercial and indus- trial rdu trial schools there were nearly 96,- 000 enrolled, or one in every less than one hundred of the population. In agriculturai,.'commercial and "In- dustrial schools there were nearly 96,000 enrolled, or one in every less than one hundred of the population. This illustrates very clearly the op- portunities existing for the bigher education in Canada and the manner in which they are taken advantage of. Canadahas twenty-three universi- ties, averaging one thousand resident degree students each, including six state controlled, viz., the Universities of New Brunswick, Toronto, Mani- toba, Saskatchewan, , Alberta and British Columbia. There are four un- denominational, Dalhousie, McGill, Queen's and Western, and thirteen denominational. The total teaching staff last year was 4,126, of whom 500 were women. • An interesting factin`the statistics of Canadian uni- versities is the large number of stu- dents in vacation and correspon- dence courses, and• it is stated. five universities of the average size" would be required to accommodate the students who are taking degrees by means of part-time, correspon- dence, vacation, and other short, courses.In 1926, 4,829 degrees were. conferred in Canada, 8,432 upon men, and 1,397 upon women. Canadian universities offer facili- ties for the pursuit of all branches of learning' and engagement in any profession, so that they give the Dominion a very adequate service- Testimony to the high standing .they occupy internationally is given in the number of students to be found at these institutions from other coun- tries. In 1926 there were approxi- mately 1,000 students in Canadian universities from the United Sl t.ta.s alone. Contrary to what st is f re ucn°- ly expressed, there were lu the sauio year only 1,200 students from- Can- ada at the higher institutions in the United States. In this connaction it is interesting to note the ability of the Dominion to absorb her grad- uates., The belief that upon gradu- ation young -men and . women move across the border into the United= States in large numbers is .flatly con- tradicted by Sir Robert Faikoner, president of the , Univer3,sity of ,To- ronto, who states that in making a. study of the emigration of Canadians to the United States he found that less than ten per cent. of Canadian university graduates' went across the line. Equally wide and varied are the services rendered by the eighty-three professional and 'technical colleges' of Canada. Not unnaturally" outstand- ing, in a eountry where farming is of prime importance, is the work per- formed by the marly'agricultural col- leges, situated in every province, whose eminence in their particular attracts annu- ally of knowledgea t •acts u ally students from all parts of the t globe. They. are at the same time performing an invaluable service to the country in preparing the youth of the British Isles for Canadian farming careers bygiving thele pre- liminary training !ander • especial,y advantageous Conditions. Macdonald Agricultural College, Quebec, ttu Ontario Agricultural College ,it Guelph, and the agricultural se's ei of Alberta areincreasingly ext;; ,ging in this work of such value to t li Dominion and the Bri.tisli 'Estes.
