GEORGIAN BAY Cildee'9.L.
Major G. W. Stephen, raaaidena
f the Montreal Harbor Cotnnlia.
ioners, has written to a l'or
William gentleman, explaining his
attitude favoring the concentra-
stion of Canadian energies on the
construction of the Georgian Bay
Canal, instead of the deepening of
tho Welland.
Supporters of the Welland
scheme took issuo tvitla tho Mon
treal official, principally because
ake Ontario interests are based
on continued business throngh the
elland. Major Stephen says : ,
'•1 snake this statement that
Canadians should not undertake
the deepening of tho Welland.
;anal from Lake Erie to Lake
ntario from 14 to 22 feet; unless
hey were prepared to deepen the
alanoe of the canals .between
alto Ontario and Montreal' to the
acne depth, because froiaa the
ery best information available,
hick I am botind to regard acs
t authoritative; plan, estitinates and
u, favorable report have been pre
t
ti
rented to the State Senate of New
York for the bnilding of a 21 foot
waterway from Oswego to the
Hudson River. Furthermore, in-
cluded in this waterway system of
onr neighbor is an amount of
842,500,000 set aside for the build-
ing of 21 foot waterway from Lake
Ontario with American money,
"If this is true we ought to lot
the Americans build this canal
with their own money, and save
onr $35,000,000, and 1 believe if all
Canadians concentrate on the
Georgian Bay route and build it,
onr American friends would be
forced to build the deepened
Welland Canal, and the other
waterway,"
"We ought to allwork for the
integrity of our Canadian water
transportation and not do any-
thing that will help to divert onr
export and import business
through foreign ports."—Fort
Wiliam Herald.
THE SHEEP INDUSTRY.
The impression is evidently gain-
ing ground amongst the Breeders
of Pure Bred Sheep in Caned* that
aa., nn14 aaaannnt of keen"ianq, for
themselves a steady annual mart et
for their ai,reans stock liee in the
direction of the encouragement and
developement of sheep raising, as
a business in onr own country. A
year ago they were confronted
with quarantine restrictions im-
posed by the United States, which
created conditions for which they
were not prepared and which, in
the end, depressed sales in a mark-
ed degree. During the greater part
of the past acasen the market hos
no doubt been a buoyant one. but
latterly the feeling of confidence
in a continuous demand for Can.
adian sheep in the United States
has steadily declined. The recent
sheep sales at the International
were none too satisfactory for
Canadian Breeders, and it was
evident that the outlook for a
steady or increased trade was not
partioularly encouraging.
It riser quem meet natural that
Canada should be able to obtain a
firm and advantageous foothold in
the markets of the United States
for her sheep and wool, but it is
now quite clear that, until the
trade policies of the two countries
become more firmly established,
the Canadian sheep industry, when
depending so largely on the United
Stetes•for its export market, rests
upon a very unstable foundation.
Fortunately, however, other and
very encouraging outlets are
available. It may be noted at this
point tbat the home market is not
unworthy 'of consideration. This
year not more than five carloads of
lambs were shipped to East Buffalo
from Ontario, while in 1907 ahnost
IOtio carloads went to that city.
The Toronto and Montreal markets
have absorbed practically the
whole output during the past
season and at prices equivalent to
that paid for similar grades in
Chicago' and Buffalo, a fact in it
:,elf indicating the string end
Browing demand for mutton on the
t.•.:-adit:,i market.
azrewitbst,iniling tits proximity
of the United States, the s,t fes;.
outlet for the Canadian prothect is
still to be found in the British and,
possibly at an early date, in the
European markets. The English
wool market is the centro of dis-
tribution for the product of the
great wool pr 1Y:cing countries of
the. world, including Austr,al.in,
Now Zealand and the Argentine.
if the sheep industry in this
country can ever he developed to
reasonable proportions, it is not to
be expected that any more natural
or reliable market coast be found
for surplus Canadian wools. In
addition to this, when til;, extent:

sufficient for the necessities of the
crowded populations oi' long in-
babited countries. (Treat Britain
has hitherto absorbed all the
surplus of the world's meat supply,
but it seems probable that she is
shortly to have competitors in the
market for foreign meats. There
it a movement in Lustre) .and
Germany which will eventually
result in the opening up of these
conntries to a chilled and frozen
t.noat trade, A 'atevdy market ie,
without doubt thus as to cd for all
the mutton that Canada can pro-
dnee.
The Breeders of pure bred sheep,,
therefore, if our argument holds,
would do well to direct their• best
energies, to the •dowelopment of
the sheep industry ixl our own
country. As a matter of fan(; a.
strong loon. demand is the safest,
market thedong run. A material
increase in the sheep population of
the country wotild craate :. thor
ouglily healthy: home Market for
breeding sheep and one much to be
desired. The opportunities in this
direction may well be worthy of
somewhat careful consideration._
It is fortunate that at this time,
the Federal Government is in-
teresting itself in, the sheep
industry of the Dominion and is
making a thorough investigation
with a view to that adoption
later of a policy which nay load
to its general encouragement and
development. There is reason to
believe that sheep raising in Can-
ada may become at no 'distant date
a decidedly profitable industry, and
the Minister of Agriculture has
undertaken a measure Iwhich we
may expect to 'be productive of
much good result. We learn that
the members of the investigating
commission, having, completed
their researches in the United
Kingdom, are to spend the next
few months in studying conditions
in the Dominion and are now en-
gaged in interviewing a number of
the proininent sheep 'breeders of
Ontario, We are hopeful that
they may meet with the full co•
operation of sheep . raisers and
farriers generally in t1. . proseou•
tion of their work.
