vestareem., , Canada has tirade great
strides in evertalting Brits' and a
taVOiW, form of such leveetment has
been i the purchase et bond se As re-
eently noted, the year 1922 set up a
reeve recerd for American bond invest-
ment. in Canada, the total of Canadian
bond sales in the United States beillg
Over $261.000,000. This centering et
interc,st linen the Seaurities of the Fed-
eral Gov erament, provinces, munici-
yalitiee and corporations an the part et
InVestors all over the United States
has been one at the most notable de-
velopments of reacin.t years in Cana -
(Rau flasmelal circles, and the greater
absorption exhibited each year by the
Republic is the clearest proof of the in-
creasing favor et Canadiaa securities
for investment.
Canadian Federal tdovernment bonds
have'cOrne to be regarded In theUnited '
States and elsewhere as the soundest
and most reliable, as well as a reason-
ably profitable form of investment.
This- is based on a clear concuPtIon of
gal:adieu status. Back Of them is
ea,nadian traditian at honest and
Square business dealing, the vast mag-
nitude of unto -ached natural resources,
and that persistent fai.th int -heir ulti-
Mate prosperous development. All
these things make , Federal Govern-
ment bond issues one at -the safest and
Moat reliable ferms of investm.ent.,
Of provincial bonds it was recently.
pointed out by the United. States In-
Vestar that no province of Canada has
ever yet defaulted an. either the in-
tereet or the principal of its obliga-
tions, a record many degrees superior
to that a the various 'states of tive
Union. Despite the serious economic
upheaval of the war years and the
PoSt-war adjustment period, the pro-
viteee Inave managed to maintain thefr
record to keep true to debt obligations,
and United States authorities eom-
mend Provineial bonds for the invest-
ment 'of their count-3'1ton.
The reoord behind municipal_ bonds
is good, There is no long list of re-
pudiated debts etch as one ands on
the e•com ef some Western and South-
ern states.. The same authority in dis-
cussing this phase ot bond issue finds
a good deal of reason for commeuding
th,e reeord which marsh:bet-alleles of
Canada have made when consideration
is gtve.n to the strain and stress
through which the Dominion had to

tiaras, and then only when crop trou-
bles, have occurred In these instances
there has been a determination ex-
leilsite'd on the part of Canadian bond
houses tin see that matters are recti -
fled, and these minor defaults were ad-
justed. '
Many investors purchase such bonds
on the advice of their bankers or
brokers. Others requiring personal
satisfaction and assurance have made
it a point to visit Cartad.a and investi-
gate conditions for theniselves. It is
significant that many of these latter
am so impressed with all that they see
and dera.ve such assurance from their
investigations that they thereafter in-
sist on Canadian bonds and extend or
limit their investing field to the Do-
minion.
Forest Protection.
The forests comprise one of Cana-
da's greatest resources.. They are ex -
peed to. several dangers, the chief of
which is fire. Nearly all forest fires
aro caueed by human agency, there-
fore they can be stopped by careful-
ness. Thosewile-Se business takes
them •:into the forest need to remind
themselves that their livelihood, in no
small degree, depends upon their care
with fire. Those who, go into the woods
far mereation and sport should con-
sider themselves, honorary fire:7yard-
ens, and even thoSe who never enter
the foreet can do much by helping to
strengthen the feree of public opinion
which Is probably the most powerful
Single factor in preventing forest fires.
And Therefore—
Two young surveyors working in a
Louisiana swamp spied what they at
first thought was a hoop snake; but at
second glance they saw that two
snakes., each with the ether's tail in
its mouth, were strenuously trying to
swallow each other.'
reaChing camp that night; they
told their snake stare, to the O'ook, a
gray-haired veteran of the swamps.
"That was, a mighty „curio -us sight,
boys," said the old man, "a raighty
curious sight. I reckon you watildn't
have believed.it if you hadn't seen it,
would. you?"
"probably net," agreed the boys.
"Well," said the old man, "I didn't
see it"
British Government Buys Stock.
One way in which the British gov-
ernment promotes private business is
by buying stock in it. The govern-
ment, proceeding openly witli its trad-
ing, asks Parliament for authority to
make whatever purchas.ca it thinks the
public interests call for. Some of the
in. -vestments have not been profitable,
but such large earnings as have come
from the Suez Canal and the Anglo.

Use of Aircraft in Canada
Ex-
tending Rapidly as Value is
,
Proved in Many 'Directions.
The development of commercial
aviation in Canada, the general use
made of the plane by various govern-
ment bodies as well' as large private
corporations, and the fa ot that the
machine of the air is. peculiarly adapt-
ed to Canadian conditions. of wide
spaces, great distances and unpeopled
wastes, made it inevitable that sooner
or later the'Dominion enter itself into
the construction of its, own air ma-
chines. I-Iitherto the aeroplanes used.
throughout Canada have roughly orig-
ina.ted almost et-pa:ally in the Ilnited
States and the British Isles, but now
Canada is to have her own plane, con-
structed an Canadian soil, utilizing
Canadian labor and built for the great-
er part from Canadian materials.
Recently the Canadian Government
Department of National Defence
placed an order with Canadian Vickers
at Montreal for eight "Viking" Amphi-
bian planes., two of which vy-ere to be
built in England an.d six in Canada.
This signalized the commencement of
commercial aeroplane construction in
Canada, a relatively small beginning,
which is, however, bound to develop
with the diffused knowledge tha.t Cana-
dians can procure their own domesti-
cally constructed machines, obviating
the different tariffs, a.nd one from
which great developments are antici-
pated: and are indeed: assured. Even
such a beginning entails the extension
of plant operations to the engagement
of an additional two, hundred persons
or so, approximately one-third of whom
are skilled workers.
An All -Canadian Plane Soon.
A. virtual specialization is being
made in the constraction of what is
known as the "Viking" Amphibian
plane as being most excellently adapt-
ed to all the various uses. to -which a
plane is put in Canada. 4t,s features
enable it to rise from or alight on land
and water equally well, whilst a fur-
ther development comprises the at-
tachment of skis, which permit; of the
uninterrupted use of the machine
through the winter months. 1n its all -
used in the construction are Canadian
products or the products of Canadian
labor, sand it is found necessary ta im-
port -the metal used intuilding and the
engines installed. Gradually, however,
it is „anticipated that the necessity of
importing metal parts will be elimin-
ated and that within a shortetime the
complete construction, with the excel) -
tion Of the engine'. Will be accomplish-
ed in Canada, with Cepadian products..
The us,e of a eanadian-built engine is a
plan of the more. distant future, and
the ultimate' construction of a machine

It is pointed cut by experts that

where such an industry, might thrive

of their services for years to coin,
whilst a large portion of the northern
t'erritory will be for all time the aero-
plane's territory. ,
The use of aircraft in Canada is ex-
tending rapidly. Governments have,
proved their value in threat patrol, in
fire fighting, in. geological'surveys, and
a hundred other asee. Pulp and paper
compaeiei are every clar discovering
new values in their Seavibes. The
