Plenty Of Hard Coal
The coal strike is ended. The an-
thracite miners and operators have
settled their:,. wage differences on a
i- newal of the old agreement: until
August` gist.,' of next year, and it is
expected that the hard coal mines will
be in operation the fore part of next
-eel;,. Normal production, it is thought

;t,Ir. '';Robert Oliver of Listowel, just
recently hack. from Buffalo after in-
avestieating prospects for the season's
supply, is inclined to be opttimistic
and sees no reason why there should
not be an abundance of coal after
navigation closes- And with the ex -1
c h an g e practica11' eliminated, he.
thinksthe - t e price will be lower, than
that paid last year. " Unless it has to
be .
delivered. in small quantities, it
shouldn't
be higher than Ss -ass a ton,
he says,'
Fear of over production was what,
concerned the mine owners last year,.
and though the miners only worked
an average of six hours a day for
three and a half days per week, the
Sit:

output was 2,6oai,000 tons more :than

Man of the Canadian Pacific,"
celebrated his seventy-fifth birthday
and received congratulations from
all over Canada.
Vancouver, -.-Railways in Canada
are in an excellent position to handle
the bumper grain crop of the prairie
provinces. There are also 10,000
cars in the western division of the
C.P.R, ready to handle grain mov-
ing westward from the prairiegrain
fields, officials of the railway state.
O. A. Cotterell, assistant general
superintendent of the G,P.R. west-
ern lines, stated that heavy '.ship-
ments will be made to the Orient
through this port.
•
Toronto:—American • tourists last
year spent $75,000,000 in Canada,
according to an estimate made in an
official report "of •the Dominion Gov-
ernment's Parks Department.
Last year more than 100,000 tour-
ist motor cars entered Canada; that
would mean upward of half a mil
lien tourists..' This year the number
will ' be much greater, for the tide
is growing, rapidly. The railways;
are having a very busy season. •,.
Winnipeg,—After a careful sur-
vey of reports received from C.P.R.
agents throughout the West, it is
estimated that this year's crop will
approximate 317,000,000 bushels,
according to the weekly crop report
of the .C.P.R. agricult.aldepart-
ment
apartment
issued here,
Reports indicate that the Western
crop generally . is turning out' well,
Even in areas where poor yields
were looked for, the conditions have
proved better than anticipated._
Vernon.—Present indications are
that the 1.922 British Columbia ap-
ple crop; will total about 2700 or
r?00 ears.
Last season'`. was the province's
big crop year, when approximately
3500 cars were packed out.
The C-P,R, has made many -pro-
visions to take care of, the valley's
transportation demands, On near-
ly every side between here. and Cal-
gary refrigerator ' cars •' are waiting
to be shunted to the packing houses,
while houses• are well stocked.
Calgary.—While Calvin Coolidge,
Vice -President of the United States,
was not inclined to talk about trade'
relations, tariffs or anything of that •
nature when he arrived here on the
Trans -Canada train of the Cana-
dian
na-dian Pacific Railway,. he waxed
,most eloquent in his praises of
Banff and Lake Louise and of the,
Canadian Rockies along the route
by which he had travelled.
"No wonder you Canadians are
proud ofyour mountains," he as-
serted; "they are magnificent."
The Vice -President spent some
time in conversation with J. M.
Cameron, general superintendent of
the Alberta Division of the C.P.R.,
Montreal.—According to a joint
circular issued by the Canadian
Pacific Railway and Canadian . Pa-
cific Steamships Limited, Mr. Allan
Cameron is appointed Oriental man-
ager, with office at Hong Kong, ef-
fective October 1.
It is understood that Mr. Cam-
eron will be in charge of both traf-
fic and operating departments. The
extensive growth in' recent years of
Canadian Pacific activities in the
Orient, with enlarged fleets and ser-
vices which have. added Manila to
the ports of call, has involved also
the transfer of. the administrative
headquarters from ' Yokohama ' to'
Hong Kong. MT; Cameron ia_fa-

tention of the railway eyeoutives to
go out of the terminal elevator

Asked as to the completion of the
Assiniboia-Lethbridge line gap, Mr.
Coleman stated that it was antici-
gated: that the, gap would be Com-
pleted late this fall. ftteh, firm -
ever, would depend on whether the
eontractor woi 1d be able to hold his
men during the harvest; `season.
Relative to the grading on the line
from Consul, east, Mr. Coleman
