Owens on the old farm at Stonefield,
Quebec. Funeral service on Sunday
afternoon was under Masonic auspices,
Masons being present from Treherne,
Holland, Glenboro, Greenway and
Cypress River, with Grand Master Jas.
McEwen; Treherne, and District De-
puty Grand Master Ted Thompson,
Glenbord, in charge of the ceremonies.
Rev.. Mr. Goulding, Holland, an old
friend of the deceased, and Rev. Mr.
Luxton of loca'1 .Anglican Church, con-
ducted the service on lawn in front of
family residence. Service was attend-
ed by a very large gathering, many
of whom came from a long distance to
pay respect to one who lied lived a
genuine Christian life for so many
years in the cominuntty. It was 1
surely a beautiful thought that came '
to us there, on an afternoon of ideal 1
warmth and sunshine and amid the I
trees plaided by the deceased's own
hands and before the home in which
he had lived for many years, that
nature seemed thus to make the pass-
ing easier for 'chose who had to bear
a heavy sorrow. The sympathy of all
the people of the community le ex-
tendedl to else bereaved widow and
family." Mrs. Owens, was formerly
Miss Fanny S. Kelly, daughter of the
late James and Mos. Kelly, for many
years well known residents of Brus-
sels, and who are stili well remember-
ed by folk in this locality. Although
87 years of age Mrs. Kelly keeps very
well and continues her interest in
Brussels and The Post. Since Mr.
Kelly died 21 years ago, she has made
her home with Mrs. Owens.
Russia will never again rival Can-
ada as a wheat exporter, accord-
ing to L. W. Lyde, Professor of
Geography at London (England)
University. He believes that grain
growing in future lies with the
Canadian farmer. Russia cannot
properly supply its own needs. Pre-
war export of wheat was purely ar-
tificial, drawn, not from a natural
surplus, but from the needs of .a
very poor and ignorant peasantry.
A twenty per cent increase in the
business over the Dominion Atlan-
tic Railway, serving Nova Scotia,
was the approximate summary of
the summer's- travel recently given
by F. G. J. Comeau, General Tref-
fig Agent of the line. This is attri-
butable to the growingappreciation

of the beauties of the Annapolis
Valley and the charm of the Evange-
line county among tourists every-

One of the many gifts offered
by enthusiastic individuals to the
Prince of Wales on his visit, the
majority of which he could not for
obvious reasons accept, was a pack.
age of French-Canadian tobacco
grown on a farm at St. Roth l'Achi-
gan, situated near the boundaries of

In a letter from the Alberta ranch
the Prince through his secretary
thanked the donor for the gift.
A cablegram from London, Eng-
land, quotes en article in the "Finan-
cial News" dealing with the British
Empire Exhibition. It stresses the
exceptionally fine exhibit staged by
Canada and the unquestionable
benefit to trade relations it has
effected. The article pays a high
tribute to the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way exhibit, describing the railway's
gorgeously illuminated map of Can-
ada, with its 5,000 incandescent
lights as probably the most brilliant
specimen of cartography ever seen
at the exhibition or , elsewhere.
It has been anneunoed that H. 1.
Logan, M.P. for Cumberland, will
accompany the Minister of Trade
and Commerce to the West Indies
to negotiate a new reciprocal treaty
with those islands. The general
purpose of the visit is to admit
West Indian commodities free in re-
turn for Canadian manufacturers
receiving similar treatment, the pro-
ducts of the two countries being
entirely dissimilar. It is also hoped
to build up a direct system of im-
portations through Canadian ports
instead of through the United
States, by which route a great pro-
portion of West Indian products
now come to Canada.
