The report sets forth that over considerable areas of England real difficulties are erperienced in finding any farm to let. When there is a farm to let there are dozens of applicants therefor. In some parts of England there is not a farm to let. The report says “Although oui' national agriculture cannot be said z 'to be prosperous yet at the same time to affirm its general depres­ sion is both unwise and untrue,” r Where producers of milk and of market garden stuff are near a ' good market, the farmer has a ready sale for hi? goods. Even the farmers who produce corn and meat are able to meet foreign com­ petition Jiy adopting methods suited to the .newer circumstances. In othtr words,’’the English farmer has taken a leaf out of his opposi­ tion’s book by producing on a large-scale, and by using up-to-date implements and methods. Not only is this the. case but the English farmer fertilizes his land till it becomes rich beyond anything that his opposition ever dreams of. On the other hand, the ultra con­ servative farmer’s methods do not meet the more modern require­ ments. For that reason he is out of the running. The report points out that there are certain types of farmers who are- bound to fall out in the agricultural race, let times be what they may. The report adds with considerable significance that “farmers, who are able to operate their holdings without recourse to-'hired labor, on • apy considerable scale, are meeting the conditions of the times without difficulty.” That last sentence is worth turning over. ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ft ., ■ i - It seems that some enterprising British radio broadcaster has been giving folk on this side of the Atlantic the advantage of lis­ tening in on some speeches made in the celebrated Guildhall. One American-listener-in has been disturbed- by an echo in that famous auditorium and has complained. , thereof with ' -characteristic out- .spokeness. All of-which causes the Manchester Guardian to make the following comment: “Yesterday’s impossibility is to-morrow’s embarrassment—and if there is. such a thing as a visitor’s, book in heaven it -will soon be full of complaints about the flatness of the celestial choir and suggestions .that it would be much better to re­ move ‘the harps and substitute harps.” Mr. 'Clifford Broadfoot has pur­ chased ’the- gavage .business'in Bimue-* field from Mr. L.

SENATOR TOM’S ACTIVITIES IN S U 1‘ER-HIGH.WAR- FLA NN ING The following was taken from the Toledo News Bee, which will be of much interest to our readers .as it refers to the successful leadership of Senator Frank Tom, brother of Mrs. Dr. Sweet and Miss M.-Tom, of town. ‘‘From one superhighway to an­ other, Senator Frank Tom is as busy as any man in. Toledo these days. His work in carrying through the now "anions Tom bill of which he was the author, in the state legislature, had a great deal to do with the suc­ cess of the effort to turn the Miami and Er io canal into a 200-niile bou­ levard. Now Tom has turned his interest to the north of the city. I-IO has just outlined to a Chamber of Commerce committee the plans, for making a Toledo-Oetroit main high­ way, using the 'route of the aban­ doned Toledo Beach street car line. Tlio scenic possibilities of this now superhighway along the lake shore are immense. It will do a groat deal to relievo the present congested 1‘oads between Toledo and Detroit, ahd it will enable much through traf­ fic from Detroit to Cleveland to be routed without pounding tho pave­ ment of Toledo’s downtown district. Without able leaders, big public im­ provements such as this languish. It is fortunate that at the proper time a man of Senator Tom’s ability and experience could bo found to get tho project going.” Emil St. Godard, winner of the 100 mile dog derby held in Connection with the Ottawa Winter Carnival, with the Chateau Laurier Gold Challenge Trophy which lie won in addition to the prize of $1,000.
