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: 1921 • ,401,000,000 1922 194,867,100 1923 194,881,800 105,289,550 43,310,600 65,936,450 • 2,000,000 60,000,000 • 79.398,700 483,081,250 481,741,850 873,000 345,473,000 52,327,296 65_207,351 4,888,185 1924 1925 1927 1928 1929 1931 1933' 1934 t 1935 1937 1938 1945 1947 S4rial. 1920-25 1909-34 1930-50 1940-60 $2,244,276,132 $24,333,333 23,467,206 137,058,841 93,926,666 $2,523,062,178 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.

Calgary recently. For the year end - ng August 31st, 1920, the company. together with its subsidiary concern3, earned $699,770.14 on a turnover of -some $113,000,000. The net profit of the parent company, without allowing for business tax, was $463,675.64, the paid up capital being $2,608,547.89.
