For m week past there has been au embargo on all other than official news' from the western front: The reason of this can only be surmised, but if former embargoes of thie nature Jena for anything it meansthat General Haig is preparing another t-remendu- ous offensive which will give him com- mand of all the ridge or co.. • din, positiens that separate the ow ',Brit- ish front from the plaire of Flanders. Since the great British advance Thurada.y it there has been steady fighting and although not so spectacu- lar as the great drives, it has, never the less, been equally important. The Germans have launched counter-at- tack after canter -attack in a deter- mined ottennet to item the proms& of the British troops, but aside from the Ives of thousando of their men in these filUoks, they have been able to act complish nothing in their endeavors. The British already hold the greater part of thd ridge and if they can gain possession of the balanee they will be enabled toireach the Lille -Ostend rail- eiray, now only six miles away, • by which the Germans transport the greater part of their munitions and suppliea into Belgitun, thus forcing the emeray into a far reaching retire- ment. On the other hand if the Ger- mans car prevent the British from any further advance at thiii tune, the rainy season and winter will seen be on hand -which will put an effectual step» to any serious operations until the following spring, and the fighting will *gain assume the old trench struggle. The result is all important to. Ger- many and she realized that fa& and is fighting wifh a determination that hag not characterized her troops or many months. So far, fortunate y, her efforts have been. vain and are likely to continue so. Despatches steep that in the line and in the rest " billets, every place where there is a British soldier, he says and looks it, that he is the master. On the French front at Verdun the enemy have also been making pereistent attempts to assume the offensive; not with the Ire ject or any hope of taking that city, but in an endeavor to stop the French advence and if possible to retake the positions taken by the Frelich last week. But in this, as on the British front they have not been sucessful. It is true, that at several points . they have succeeded inpenetrating the French front rine, but in every case a counter-attack has immediately driv- en thern out again with very severe losses. , in Mesopotamia this week General ,Made and his British army gained one of the most complete victories of the war when at the battle of Raman - di e he took the Turkish army com- pletely by eurpriseiand utterly routed them, capturing over 4,000 prisoners, including. the Turish general and his staff, and immense quantities of muni- tions and other war booty. Despatches from Rome indicate that another Italian drive is imminent. The French and British have sent ad- ditional. warships into the Adriatic and it is expected that Italian troops will soon strike at Trieste in a com- bined land and, sea attack aided by the Allieei naval forces. The Aus- trians, semn fully realize the im- portance of the preparations made a- gainst, theme and are, withdrawing large numbers of troeps from the Rus- sian and other other eastern fronts in an endeavor to halt the Italian ad- vance. The Italians however, are giving the enemy no rest and it is con- fidently expected that Italy will be in Triest before winter. . Almost every night for a week past the Germans have been carrying oat air raids over England. On Satur- day, Sunday and Monday nights the attempts were particularly vicious. On Monday night four different groups attempted to reach London. _The British anti-aircraft guns- and de- fences have so greatly improved, how. ever, that only two enemy aiirmen, on this occasion were able to reach the outskirts of the eity end these did no nratical. damage. The British defen- Five guns are now's° arranged that they can place a barrier' of shells a- cross any part of the sky through which enemy airmen attempt to ap- proach. This fire is -Very much like the barrage fire used by the artillery on land which is laid down in front Of the advancing troops, and was so well placed and so effective, that the Ger- man airmen could not penetrate it, al- thmegh they tried repeatedly. The tetal casualty list for the week in theae raids has not yet been given, but it is not expected to be heavy, not- withstanding that some of the attacks lased over an hour. Little • exhite- raent and no panic was evidenced in London \during noT Of these raids. The ilea* had. ample Warning and innned- lately sought shelter, leaving the streets practically empty.

Mr. Alair will be much missed in this community where he had lived so long, and was a good neighbor and an affec- tionate husband and father.

During the time, the ladies were preparing a lunch the evening was spent in music and conversation. The foremost topic of the evenin: g was the general expres- sion .of hope that Mr. and Mrs: Meo _Connell would again settle in our corn- n inity. After lunch all joined hands and sang "Auld Lang Syne" and "He's a Jelly Good Fellow." Before going home all shook hands with Mr. and Mrs. McConnell and said farewell, meaning "fair thee well."'

I think I told you about the Shasta Mountain, which can be seen for fifty mires along the Shasta Valley on our way to Portland, the valley which is quite extensive in some Palces and densely planted with prune trees and peach orchards,. es- pecially the prune: When ripe, they are pulled and sorted as to quality and spread in crates, very much like the onion crates. Then shallow gates are spread out in rows for the prunes to sun dry. The weather is so fav- orable for this industry, as little or no rain falls or six months during the summer, so you can frequently see a field covered with prune crates which are petfectly black, and at a little dis- tance looks like a plowed field. I think this is the home of most of the prunes you will find in our grocery stores in Ontario. Portland is a -fine city of lovely parks and public buil& ings. Leaving Portland we take the Southern Pacidc Railway, passing through the Santa Lowes Mountains, we come to the Shasta Springs. The train stops for fifteen minutes for passengers to view the springs and taste the water -real soda water. This water is bottled and sold for mineral water.

When it is high tide sonic of these ,derricks are five feet in the wa- ter. From here we travel for fifty miles to Santa Barbara along the sea- shore. Leaving Santa Barbara we have a short run of 104 mites to Los .Angeles. This- is one of the loveliest and the wealthiest cities on. the Pa- cific. It is a city of 550,000 people.

Santa Mon- ica, -Long Beach and Venus are either suburbs of the city. These are sum- mer resorts or watering places, and is a perfect midway of sports and pleas-. ures. Leaving Lim Angeles, we take' the Salt Lake route to Salt Lake City. This route psis' through the' Mogara Desert for 500- Miles. This desert varies in width from two to ten miles. Little orenp vegetation is seen in this valley except sagebrushand the wild palm called the Yocka Palm. These pains are from five to eight feet high and belong to the cactue family. The railway skirts the bottom of the Mountains,frequeptly passing through short tunnels. This is an old mining district. Away backin the sixties these mines were flourishing and many men were made wealthy. But like other industries, there caxne a de- pression, the ore of gold, silver and copper and nickel was so low and the miaes not yielding so well that many of them closed down, and some towns of seven and eight hundred were com- pletely deserted. Salooas, boarding- houses and mining camps were all empty, leaving behind all household effects such as pianos, organs, furni- ture, pool and gambling tables were all left behind as the cost of transp'or- teflon was more than the articles were worth, as no railway passed though this place in those days, the present road, being- built, about eleven years 'ago.

Montreal, October 2.1. --At the Mon- treal stock yards, west -end market, one of the strong features of the trade was the stronger feeling which developed in the market for bulls for canning purposes. Prices for them scored an advance of 25 to 40c per 100 lbs., which was attributed to the keen competition. between packers, for this class of stock. An active trade Was done at $6.40 to $6,50 per cwt.' There was. ace change in prices for canning cows, but they were firm at $5 to $5 .2 per cwt. Another -feature of the market was the Weaker feeling which prevailed in butchers' COWS and trails. a • OCTOBER 51 1917 1***4040.

' A weaker feeling developed in the nierket for sheep and lambsm-Prices deelined 50c per 100 lbs., due to the falling off in demand from both local and. American buyers and the contin- ued large offeringe; The trade was slow even at this reduction and quite a few were left over unsold at the close of the market. Ontario lambs sold at $14.50 to $14.75, and Que- bec at $13.50 to *14 per ewt. In spite of the strength which de- veloped in the live hog situation at the end of last week, and the fact that prices scored a sharp advance at oth- er Canadian centres, with sales of se- lected lots at *19 per cwt, weighed off cars, there was no boom in the local market toy. Prices advanced only 25 cents per 100 pounds, and packers -claimed to be getting all they wanted for immediate shipments. Sales of selected lots were made at $18, $1.8.50;" and rough, heavy stock at *17.50 to $17.75, while sows sold at $15 to $15.50, and stags at $14 to $14.50 per ewtweighed off cars.

Union Stock Yards, Toronto, Octo- ber 2. -Poor quality Eastern cattle bulked largely in a heavy offering this morning, when trade for good to chime quahty butchers was active at values steady to strong compared with last week's close. Commission men quoted heavy export steers from $11.50 to $12.60, but this class , of cattle was but sparsely represented. One load sold at $11,50: choice but- chers, which were the first to be sent over the scales cashed in from $10 to $10.65 and good killers were altuost equally active from $9.50 to $9.85. There was also a fair market for medium butchers, but the common Eastern cattle were none too daiy to dispose of. Good to thoice fat cows and best bulls were also in demand. and 4t the eose everything had been cleaned up that possessed any semb- lance of quality. Stockers and feeders were only a moderate but steady trade, and there was not any marked de/nand for milk - ere and springers with $5 off last week's opening prices. Lambs were steady- to a shade firm- er, best lambs selling from $15.50 to $15.65. Sheep and calves were steady and in demand. During the week -end shipments of "%NNW 1 hogs direct to the packing while not liberal, had been above the average, yet for fairly large offering 'in the pens this morning the packer- , buyers had to pay ;19 fed and water 1 ed, an advance of 25e since last Thumday.
