THE FAMILY • HERALD AND
WEEKLY STAR
The Family Herald and Weekly
Star of Montreal has announced that
alter December 31st, 1920, the sub-
scription price of that great weekly
-will be $2.00 per year in Canada,
England, Ireland or Scotland, and
.2.50 to the United States. The
recent heavy increase in the cost of
white paper make the slight advance
necessary, in fact it is only a small
portion of the increased cost, over
pre-war prices of procluctiam. All re-
newals and subscriptions, the pub-
lishers say, mailed before December
:31st, 1920, 'will be.accepted at the old
rate of $1.50. Even at the advanced
mice of $2.00 a year- The Family
Herald is regarded as the best value
on the Continent. It is- aelmowledg-
opened.
The Itinion Grain Growers, Ltd.,
was formed in 1917 through an amal-
garnation ,of the Grain Growers Grain
Company of Manitoba, - a concern
which had been in eidfstence since
1006, and the Alberta Farmers Co-
operative Elevator Company, which
had 'been operating since 1913. It
has now, several subsidiary com-
panies: the Grain Growers Export
• Company, Ince of New York, which
is engaged in grain exporting; the
Grain Growers Export Company of
Canada. the head office of which is
in Winnipeg; the Public Prep, Ltd.,
a printing concern in Winnipeg, which
prints the "Guide"; the Grain Grow-
ers Guide, Ltd., the publishing house
which publishes the "Guide"; the
united Grain Growers Sawmills, Ltd.
operating at Hutton; B. C,; The United
Gain Growers Securities Company,
with head office in Winnipeg, which
handles the sale of farm lands, mort-
gages and other securities; and the
United Grain Growers (B. C.), Ltd.
-a company recently established !in
Vatic ouver..
Sc far the undertaking has been
conducted on sound business lines,
and a considerable measure of suc-
cess has been achieved• by the man-
agement. Little difficulty has been
experienced in financing the venture.
An issue of .debentures was sold a
few months agollwithout difficulty. It
has now been dec. ided to increase the
capital by three million dollars, to
aidfurther development. The feasi-
•ed to be absolutely without a rival. bilita- of developing a plan for the
hence its enormous circulation. co-operati-ve marketing of grain is
under consideration. If such ma-
tures, the venture may attain gigantic
whoortio-ns, in which case- it will
either in time, practically control the
•grain- trade in the West or else go
tinder. While •the shareholders are
nearly all working farmers, the suc-
cess of the undertaking depends
largely on the capacity and efficiency
of the management. The pertinent
question is: how far can the business
expand with safety?.-
CANADA'S DEBT
Canada's outstanding obligations,
including not only the war loans and
Victory loans issued 'in Canada, but
also the various loans issued in the
United States and London, .are $2,-
523,062,178. The following table in-
dicates in detail the respective dates
at which the Government's indebted-
ness -reaches final maturity:

It will be seen that an appreciable
part of Canada's indebtedness falls
due at a relatively early period. With-
in five years, '$578:349,000 matures,
S429,748,900 of which comes due be-
fore the end of three years for in
1922 and 1923 the five-year bonds of.
our 1917 and 1918 Victory Loans have
to be paid off. As this may prove to
be too heavy a burden on current
•revenue, it seems probable that fur-
ther financing will be necessary.
