Here and There , (487) A revelation of the wide range ...and high quality of manufactured ..products centering in the twin ■’Cities of Fort William and Port Ar­ thur was commented oa by visitors "to the “Home Industry Exhibition,” held at the former city recently. The Exhibit was open only to bona fide manufacturers of the two cities •and one hundred entrants had dis­ plays in which there was practical­ ly no duplication of products. Forty years ago not a tree could 3>e seen growing oh expansive •stretches of the virgin prairies in "western Canada. To-day trees are plentiful and there is hardly an es­ tablished farm house but lias its shelter belt or a grove of poplars, maples or some other variety of trees. Recent, reports of inspec­ tors of Canadian Government For­ estry Service show that there are 7,600 farms thus provided and to •date over 100 million trees have been distributed over the prairies, with many millions more bought from nurseries and planted on farms.

WITH ALL THE BRAN OF THE WHOLE WHEAT The editors of the Ontario and Quebec weekly newspapers were in Montreal last week. Doing up a big city should come after the golfing season, instead of before, * ♦ ♦ * ’nr ♦ * «. ft ♦ ft .• ft >ft .* A GREAT HUMAN Civilization is the poorer because of the passing of W. H- Taft, ox-president of the United States and Chief Justice of the supreme Court of that mighty republic. In the days when .the ideal of the strenuous life was held before the youth of the land as the- only principle worth exemplifying, Mr. Taft, without saying a word about it, daily lived greatly and achieved nobly. No other American ever attained to the two positions of chief justice of the supreme court and of president of the republic. He was mighty in the affairs of state. He was even greater as a jurist. No man of his day did better by his country than wag done, by this wonderful man. Yet it will be as a human that Taft will be remembered long­ est. As, the years pass his" public services will be recognized and applauded, But when Mr, Taft past into the land of the greater realities there- were more tears shed than have* fallen for many a day on the passing of a public man. Taft kept his manhood about and “bore without abuse the fine old name of gentleman,’’ *ftftftftftftft Is the horse breeding industry due for a comeback? In 1928 the number of horses- declined to the lowest point on record. Since then the market has stiffened. All along some farmers have done well in breeding good horses. There has been no fortune in this line of farming,, but the man who knows how has had a steady in­ come from this source. Inferior horses always have been a drag on the market. * One difficulty about the horse industry since the advent of the automobile has been the lack of pride taken in this animal. The day was when a mark of a gentleman was his interest in a good horse. The proud day of many a youth’s life was when he got a fine lady friend behind a real stepper. The open road was a real temptation in those days. Riding or driving was a real accomplish­ ment. To this -day there are a whole lot of ladies of high degree who look their bast when controlling a steed with some real mettle. If one visits some of our big cities he is delighted to see her lady­ ship step from a fine carriage drawn by a pair of horses with grace in- every limb and poetry in every motion. It is just possible that the horses will at an early date take his rightful and remunerative place in our country’s economy. ******** health keeps it the^C Shredded Wheat is an id|al indoor-weaker food.

Alberta led the western provinces in the number of successful farm placements made in 1.929 by the ■Canada Colonization Association when a total » 427 families were settled on 5(7 /) acres, said IV. R, Dick, supcrin ,/adcnt of land settle­ ment for the province, at a meeting In Calgary recently. 'i’he first of the Canadian Pacific Railway broadcastings took place February 21 over CRAG from Montreal and C-KGW from Toronto, and will be repeated every Friday thereafter. These stations were linked over Canadian Pacific tele- .graphs which allow the use of toch- nical improvements brought into use for the first time. Running from "10 to II on the nights of broadcasting the concerts will be made up of light symphony orches­ tral pieces and renderings of light .and ballad opera music. The ser­ ies will bo built up to the slogan of “Cheerful and Good” and the or- ■chcstra will bo under the leadei- ship of Rex Battle, a conductor ■whose brilliant work has won wide popularity. Sea chantey music and French-Canadian and other folk songs will also’be featured. Home Mixing of Fertilizer The home mixing of commercial fertilizers for tobacco has certain ad­ vantages over the use of ready-mixed fertilizers. The cost of home-mixejl fertilizers is considerably less than ready -mixed brands, also the grower knows exactly what he is, using, not only the percentage of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash,,but the orig­ in of these ingredints. The mixing should ’be done on a level surface such as a barn floor or a specially constructed mixing box. The ingredients - should be spread out and all lumps broken be­ fore mixing is done. The whole batch is then thoroughly mixed by repeated shovelling. Not more than a ton should be mixed in one batch a’nd it should be applied to the land within 24 hours of its preparation. Appointment of L. C. McOuat, one -of the Dominion’s leading agricul­ turists, as general agricultural agent of the Canadian Pacific Rail­ way, announced recently, is further • evidence of the railway's interest in the development of Canada. Mr. McOuat has had 15 years' expert- •jence in agricultural and livestock affairs and enjoys the distinction <of having represented Canada on an Imperial committee to studv tho ..meat supply of the British Empire. A very highly esteemed resident of Seaforth passed away at his home following an illness of several years’ duration. Mr. Rivers was ’born in 1860 having lived in Seaforth about seven years. He is survived by his widow and three .sons and two dau­ ghters. Mr, Newton Chadwick Snowden passed away suddenly at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Ed. Mole in Seaforth where he has resided for a numbr of years, since the death of his wife. Ono son and one daugh­ ter survive. Shribers making the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, their Mecca next June for their Imperial Council •sessions, will find a city ready built and equipped for 8,000 people ar, Vheir service. The Canadian Paci­ fic Railway are now building “PTa, ’■City’’ composed of railway sleeping cars and marquees to take the place of administration and service buildings. The new city will -closely adjoin the ■' Exhibition grounds where the'convention Is to be hold. ’It will be divided by ■“The Midway” and its full length will bd adorned with a motor road to be known as "Ramoses Drive." Streets numbered 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.. Will radiate from “Midway”.

It is an organization set up to counteract the bad business and social effects of the Getitanyways. This, latter society has sadly interfered with ‘ w. everything that is good. ’They have encouraged the -credit pur­ chase of furniture and radios and tony groceries and fine clothing and fancy houses and unnecessary trips and swell dinners and bridge parties. They have even invaded churches and in them have rolled up qnormous- debts. They have gone so far as to insist upon costly funerals. The result has been disastrous all through. The .Dowithouts insist that their members pay as they go. In some cases they r.ecommend a diet of potatoes and salt. In cases less extreme they suggest the use of oatmeal three times a day as a rarity. Knee action and the uniform and liberal use of conscience and brains are requisites- for membership. Elbow grease and strict economy must be used by all the members. The emblem of the so­ ciety is a dead Scotchman—a true exempler of rigid economy. The members of this organization already are casting calculating eyes upon the business and business places of the Getitanyways. They are ■making out lists of those who loaf during business hours and who talk when they should be working and who are pleasuring when they should be resting. They are up and dusting these times. It is to be noted that they will accept as members only those who have a • stiff backbone. More will be heard from this society later on.
