A British silk :manufacturing firm has decided to establish a large plant near Quebec city for the manufacture of artificial silk yarn. A train nearly a mile Hong and r drawn by a n els lueomative re- cently carried 165,000 bushels of grain over the Canadian Pacific western lines. Almost sixteen and a half million 'ltuahels of wheat were exported Men the port of Vancouver during 'the period September 1, 1922, to May 31 of the present year, accord- ing to figures issued by the Mer- chants Exchange. Among the large number of un- accompanied women on the lest ,westward voyages of the Canadian Pacific liners "l4iontclare" and "Me- lita" were twenty-three who 'were .coming to Canada to be married in various parts of the Dominion. An official in charge of the cattle .shipments from the Port of 'Mont- real recently ;slated that nearly 40,- 000 head of store cattle would be shipped from the rcrt this year. He . ;declared the rush seasons would be the months of August, Seetember and October. On her last eastward voyage the Canadian Pacific liner "Empress of Canada" established a new trans - Pacific record of e days, 10 hours aid 55 minutes from Yokohama to fVancouver. The previous record, 8 clays, 18 hours and 31 minutes, had. helm held since 1914 by the "Em- press of Russia" of the same line. If public deposits in banks and lean companies can he taken as: a fair indication, the Canadian is the avorld's richest nun, according to a .statement made Ly F. A. Hatch, re - .tiring president of the. Ontario di- vision of the Canadian Manufac- turers' Associs rib, These deposits amount to , two billion dol.

C. Harvey, an Alberta sheep raiser. It will be known as the "Romnellet," ;and has been evolved after eight 'Tears' experimenting with crosses of the Romney -Marsh with the Ram- bouiliet. As evidence of the wool production from this species, Mr.. Harvey's annual' clip is 120,000 Pounds. That Canada was gradually be- coming more and more of an indus- trial cc.entry, and that Canadians themselves were not truly aware of ;the face, was the opinion expressed Jeefore the Winnipeg Rotary Club by Prof. R. C. Wallace, of the Uni- versity of Manitoba. He stated that during the past twenty-five years the population of Canada had in- creased 80 per cent., the railway "mileage 120 per cent., while the in- dustrial life of the country increased 700 per cent. St. Hyacinthe, Que., has the dis- tinction of having developed the ,world's largest organ plant, and by native invention and improvements evolved an instrument which re- ceives, praise from the world's first artists. An organ recently shipped ,by Cassavant Freres of that place .to Paris, France, is absolutely the first to leave the American conti- nent for Europe, the movement hav- ing heretofore been in the opposite direction, and was so shipped be- cause the purchaser desired the fin- est and most up-to-date instrument that could be secured.

Some suggest that our debt worries can best be eased by go- ing further into debt. Others preach blue ruin, decry their own country and indulge in mis- chievous propaganda generally, while still others look for a new social order or some miraculous sign to indicate a better coming day -ell this in apparent forget- fulness of the fact that just as there was no royal road to win the watt, there is now no royal road to pay for it or regain our former buoyancy, vigor and confidence. Sonne are leaving Canada hop- . ing to escape taxation, only to, find there is no escape anywhere. In seeking for easy remedies too many of us overlook the fact that etc greatest remedy is hon- est, hard work faithfully and intelligently performed, accom- panied bye old-fashioned thrift. it 'iidces time, it takes patience, it takes grit. But every Canadian knows in his heart that Canada is cowing through all right. Our Experience Proves It Look back over the path Canada has trod. The French Colonists, cut off from civilization by 3,000 a miles of sea, faced continent - a w•i,U4erness-without the aid of even a blazed trail. They had to fight savages, frosts, scurvy, loneliness and starvation. The United Empire Loyalists subdued an unbroken forest in one generation, growing their first wheat amid the stumps and snags of the new clearing. The Selkirk settlers orae to Manitoba when the prairie was a buffalo pasture, and -grew wheat where none had grown before and where those who knew the country best at that time said wheat would never grow. To- day the Canadian prairies grow the finest wheat in the world. In proportion to population Canada stands to -day among the wealthiest nations in the world, with average savings on deposit per family of $800. Canada's foreign trade per head of ' population stands amongst the highest of the commercial nations, being. $192 per capita in 1922-23, as compared with $135 in 1913-14, the "peak" year before the war. New Opportunities for Canada In Canada, although prices in the world markets fell below war level, our farmers reaped last autumn the largest grain crop in Canadian his- tory, and Canada became the world's largest exporter of wheat, thus in large measure making up for lower prices. Last year, Great Britain, after an agitation extending over thirty years, removed the embargo on Canadian cattle, and a profitable and practically unlimited trade is opening up For Canadian stockers and feeders.
