PAVING LAKE HIGHWAY
IS MUCH DISCUSSED.
Crushing Burden of Drain Taxes All
Farriers Can Stand, Some Think,
•
The numerous high -pressure asso-
ciations in towns along the lake boost-
ing the paring of rhe lake :hare high-
way, dsaw attention to the fact that
in Huron county, at least, the present
centrally located Provincial high'
wayn were paved without anyassoc•i-
ations or press-agenting. They were
paved because there was need. Just
why the taxpayers of this county or
any other county 'should be loaded
with the burden :of ' an ale -weather
highway along the lake, serving the
county on only one side; and boosted
by anle n few people in the towns
along the reaa, is the,giestion wel!-
ief.'rntec men resp.nsible to the
-people .f the tow•utships, are asking.
With the heavy drain taxes on the
armers which are a crushing burden
even in good ates, wisdom has been
shown by the highways department in
apnroaehing rhe matter of paving the
.'Bite Water" highway with caution.
The extreme excitement of thele
'lake ,.robs at the present time leads
one to 1e:ieve that they know that as
soon a: the Landon Road paving is
completed through to the north, it will
carry the henry.tanrist traffic. To the

PREDICTS FAMINE WHEAT
PRICES WITHIN TWO YEARS
(Tlu \fait and Empire).
In a private letter to a Finau-Mal
house in tins city, an English econ-
omist, ,who has a' high reputation for
the accuracy of his predictions, fore-.
cases the return en good tines far the
wheat growers of Canada and other
exporting countries. ht the course of
his communication this authority
saga: " In two years' time I e pest
the price of wheat to be raised al-
most to famine prices." Ii well -foal -Id -
ed, this prophecy has immense int-
erest for all western Canada and the
Dominion as a whole. Once wheat
returns to even normal prices, not to

say famine prices, this country wile
be once more on the; highroad .b0 pros-
perity. In that event, the present de-
pression
epression will become merely an un-
pleasant, memory.
'Support for the contention that the
wheat markets will improve from this
time forward is to be found in the
monthly review- of the world wheat
aituatiott, published by the Dominion
Bureau of Statistics, under authority
of Hon. H. H. Stevens. The bureau
remarks that itt 1930-31 the world
trade in wheat practically reached the
average of the five-year period, 1925
to '1929, when economic conditions
were comparatively good. In a time
of depression people are inclined to
think only of the adverse factor in
the situation, even though a number
of other factors are quietly operating
on the constructive side, as at pres-
ent. The year 1931 opened with a
i:uaticn barren of immediate hope,
but during the pas: nine months price
severs have been relatively- even for
the tint time since the downward
trend began in the Autumn of 1979.
The bureau enumerates a number
of :he constructive- influences which
hare been at weak in the world -mar-
ke:. On the continent of. Europe the
rad at' nigh prices between 192
a.td 102.9 and the Period of artificially
pegged high prices From 1 29 to the
tsrc:en: time. :rare not induced' any
appreciable increase in the wheat ac-
reages of nathesa imparting countries.
A.: obtainable data now indicates a
ly in inany sections, both in outetur•u
and in quality. The difficulty of se -
inning adequate data eco n• Russia is
admitted but as fax as can be ascer-
taiued,_the Russian wheat crop of 1931
is considerably smaller than that of
1930,
Thus read together, the Englis:1i
econom'ist's forecast and the .report
put out by the Dominion Bureau of
Statistics must be accepted as hold-
ing out zeal hopes of a recovery in the
Canadian grain -growing industry, and
thus, in the whole economic situation
throughout the Dominion. The Eng-
lish ,authority
ng-iish,authority talks of 'famine , prices
within two years, hut something short
of this will satisfy Canadians,

PREDICTS INCREASE IN
AVERAGE SPAN OF LIFE
'a
The average span of life in the Un-
ited States, now estimatedby statis-
ticians at 58 years, will be increased'
by 12 years within the next quarter
century. Dr. Charles H. Mayo, one of
the Mayo ,brothers whose names rank
high in American surgery, said in ant
interview in New York.
"In the next 25 years," he said,
man may expect tot live to an average
age of 70 instead of 55. For medical
science has combined with education
to produce a •healthier race,"
But Dr. Mayo cannot see that
science will solve the riddle of ilfe.
"All living things must die," he said,
"Neither health, education nor science
wilt enable a race to live forever."
The breaking point, he reels, is at
the age of 38. From then on. if not.
before, people must exert every care.
The human body must be treated for
:he intricate thing it is. Ii a man
wants to live to be 70, let him take
care of himself after 35. "The natur-
al breakdown of the organism," said
the famous surgeon, "begins at that
agDevelooptnents in preventive medi-
cines will be the important factor in
advancing the span of life during the
next 25 years, Dr. Maya said. Medical
men of the present day are working
determinedly- to discover means of
prevention, rather than cure.
