Me. Editor :—
Too will observe in paper No. 0, the
statement, "Leglelatton never has and
never will do this," We presume. Me.
Bamford means Legislation never pro-
hibits. Perhaps this is one of hie so
called "incontrovertible facto." How-
ever you are aware that the brewers
of the United States publish a hand•
hook each year showing the liquor per
head purchased in every State in the
Union. They certainly know more
about the production and sale of liquor
than any other class. Far 1011 the
United States Government tax upon
the Consumption of ligsior in the dif-
ferent States showed that Kansas, (A
Prohibition State) consumed the tette-
hundredth part of e, gallon for each
person. This could be accounted al -
w eet entirely for druggists and meth-
anical uses. In the adjoining state of
Missouri, a liquor state, the per capita
consumption was given as thirty-six
gallons or thirty-six hundred times as
much per bead as in Kansas, a state
that has for thirty years enjoyed a
fair chance to prove what Prohibition
would do. The resulthas been beyond
the most sanguine expectation of the
advocated of Prohibition, Crime baa
been lessened. More than one half of
the one hundred and five jails are
empty, Forty-two counties have had
no jury called to try a criminal case in
many years, No less than twenty-one
thousand students are reported as
attending the state colleges. In Kan-
sas, we are informed taxes are very
much lighter than in adjoining States.
As compared with Indiana or Missouri,
about one half as much, The "bureau
of Correction", report that twenty-
nine counties have not a sing`e person
on their poor farm, such as every
county is bound to maintain. The
bank deposits to the credit of the
people of Kansas is much greater per
head than in the Licensed state of Mis-
souri? It would after all appear from
these returns, tbecorreetnees of which
cannot be disputed that in Kansas,
Prohibition does prohibit.
In conclusion, we again say many
men who could not resist the temp-
tation of the open bar would take
their wages home to their wives and
families. Every hotel man knows
money is taken over the bar that
ehould go to warm, clothe, and feed
famishing children. The bar has
never been a bleating to any, even the
liquor men admit it, but it has been a
curse to thousands, even this they
admit. General Booth says, "Nine -
tenths of our poverty, equator, vice
and crime spring from this poisonous
tap 'root." Society by its customs,
habits and laws, has greased the elope,
down which these poor creatures slide
to perdition.,"

WHAT A GREAT MAN
SAID TO THE GREAT
CANADIAN PEOPIE
Passed Away.
Mr. George McEwen of Hensali, for
yeare a well known figure in South
Huron, died in Clinton hospital on
Friday, Dec. 20th, the immediate cause
being apoplexy. Mr. McEwen lived
for over a quarter of a century in
Hensel', where he was formerly en-
gaged in the making of salt and also
in the flax business and grain trade.
He was prominent in municipal
matters, for yeare reeve of Hay and
for a term warden of Huron. He was
also active in politics and for one
term represented South Huron in the
House of Oommone, defeating John
McMillan. The funeral took place on
Wednesday afternoon to Maitland
cemetery, Goderich, being conducted
under Masonic auspices.

Dominion Forestry Branch Reports
Remarkably Small Loss,
The lowest level of forest fire loss on
record in Canada was reached this
year on Dominion Forest Reserves in
Western Canada. From the first of
April to the end of September several
of these reserves escaped without a
single fire over ten acres in extent, the
small tires that did occur being satin•
guished by the ranges before occasion:
ingany damage to standing timber
On the Rooky Mountains Forest Re•
serve, which has an area of 13,373.830
acres, the fire -lose amounted bent 1,150
acres of young timber of only peter..
tial value and $150 worth of mature
timber. The total area burnt over,
more than half of which was cut -over
or grassland, was but 3,010 acres. re-
presenting only 0.02 per cent of the
area of this reserve. On the Dominion
Forest reserves in British Columbia,
which have a total area of 2,420,480 ac-
res not a single fire succeeded in
spreading over a larger area than ten
acres, and the only green timb6r injur-
ed by. fire was four acres of young
ledge -pole pine. The records` are not
yet complete for Saskatchewan and
Manitoba, but the available figures
compare favourably with the ones
cited. The above figures also compare
favourably with corresponding ones
,n the National Forests of the United
States, where the area burned in 1013
although the smallest in recent years.
was somewhat over 0.03 per cent of the
total reserve area.
In the Fire Districts on Dominion
Crown Lends in the west patrolled by
Dominion fire ranges the loss occasion-
ed by forest fires last season is also re=
warkably email, nor ie this due wholly
to the large amount of rain which fell
last summer in the west. for . there
were also several dry spells when fro.
quent fires occurred, which only the
alertness of the fire -rangers prevented
from occarsloning large losses, In the
Coast Fire Ranging District, B. 0.,
which being situated in the Railway
Belt it administered by the Dominion'
Forestry Branch, during June and
July and August no lees than 110 Brea
occurred, yet all of these flees were •et-
tinguished by the flee -rangers before
any standing timber was destroyed,

a reply from the "Egremont Industrial

England," stating that the fruit bad
reached them in excellent condition
and asking for particulars regarding
the orchard, the care it received, the
packing, etc. Mr. Cordell has applied
and as the Company appears to be very
well satisfied with the apples and have
a chain of stores in all probability the
result will be that the choicest of next

PAST
Previous to the year 1911, the north end of Winnipeg
was practically cut off from the main portion of the city by the
C. P. R, Terminal Yards. In 1911 and 1913 this obstante was.
• overcome by the MoPhillip Street sub -way and the over -head
bridge on Arlington St. Immediately development began in
this part of Winnipeg.
PRESENT
The north end of Winnipeg, West/ eV Main, particularly
between Mountain and Lansdowne Avenues, is theemost rapidly
g owing residential portion of Winnipeg. Beitiveen,= .Ave-
nues and Hearn and Main St. aperson might' pick at random a •
to ; or more and make a profitable investment. The best how-
ever, is lots along the Sharp Boulevard and file Avenues on
e tch side.
FUTURE
The profit making possibilities are brightest along the Sharp
Boulevard and the Avenues on each side, as prices will continue
to show a steady advance for many years to come. Land on
the Boulevard that two years ago sold at $22.00 a foot is now
selling at $60 00.a foot. Two more years will show equal if not -
• better conditions on Hanover Place as by that time the Street
Car line will doubtless be along the Boulevard. The time to
• invest is now, Prices of lots, $225.00 each and np according to
