A VALUABLE REPORT
The focussing of public attention in
Canada upon the problem of strengthen-
ing our national organization through
increased industrial and commercial
efficiency lends special value and interest
to the Seventh Annual Report of the
Commission of Conservation, which has
just been issued. The activities of this
Commission, relating to the entire field
of primary production, aim to secure
greater efficiency in basic industry in
the development and utilization of
Canada's natural resources.
The resume of the past year's work
is notable primarily fur the progress
recorded in the constructive programme
entered upon by the newly formed
Town Planning branch, with respect to
one of our greatest and most urgent
national problems, viz, the proper use
and development of land, particularly
in urban areas, Town -planning legis-
lation of an advanced character has
been secured in several provinces and
thorough investigation of housing con-
ditions has also been undertaken with a
view to the drafting of model housing
laws. Rapid progress has been achieved
in the promotion of independent civic
organization throughout the Dominion
for the purpose of securing more general
and thorough study of public questions.
A second noteworthy feature is the
attention devoted by the Commission to
the reduction of the heavy economic
handicap imposed upon Canada through
her enormous annual fire losses. The
Commission is engaged in a careful
study of the causes, the extent and
best methods of remedying this avoid-
able tax upon the country's resources.
The section of the report containing
the results of an agricultural survey in
four representative counties presents
accurate and definite data regarding
the deficiencies of Canada's chief
industry and affords a valuable in-
dieation of the lines iitolig which efforts
to improve rural conditional economic
and social, should be directed.
Steady progress has been made by
the Commission in the huge task of
national stock -taking, the urgent nec-
essity for which becomes daily mare
apparent. Recent experience has
served to emphasize the need for
accurate knowledge of the nature and
extent of the Dominion's wealth in lands
forests, tninerais, water -powers, fish -
erica and wild life, ea a guidance to
intelligent and permanent national
e*pansien.
The report, which is bound in cloth,
and well illustrated, constitutes an
important addition to the iiterature on
Canada's resources and the problem

tration and development,

The trouble with sowing wild oats is
that it usually yields a cup of trouble.
One of the mysteries of life is why it
should be so much fun spending money
foolishly.
Since the Onto temperance act
came into operation, over twenty stan-
dard
licenses have been surrendered,
which is fewer than anticipated. The +�
additional standard hotel licenses grant- Il
ed are more numerous than those which
have been surrendered.
