Winnipeg, Man. -A toll of four deaths and damage to ungarn- ered crepe, the extent of which will not be determined for same time, were left in the wake of snow, rain and hail storms which have swept West- ern Canada. F. Willis, a farmer in the Rama Districtof Saskatchewan, his wife and two children, were 13i:ed when a light- ning bolt struck their home during the height of one of the worst electrical storms experienced in that district. The farmhouse was in a mass of flames when neighbors reached the scene. They were unable to check the fire. and the frail dweaing burned to the ground. The bodies of the four victims, charred almost beyond recog- nition, were later recovered from the ruins. The unusual weather disturbances brought the first touch of Winter to Alberta, parts of Eastern British Col- umbia, o:umbia, and Western Saskatchewan. In several sections of Alberta the snow - fait, reached mid -Winter proportions, the maximum snowfall being reported from Edmonton, where it reached a depth of one foot, In other parts of the province the mantle of snow var- ies from one to six inches, A sharp drop in temperature, with seven de- grees of frost in the Edmonton dig - 'Wet, accompanied the snowfall. Practically the wine:o_ of the Prairie Provinces have been Benched by rains during the past two days, and grave concern is felt over the continued de- lay of harvesting operations. The grain is reported t0 be sprouting in the stooks in those localities where intermittent rales have prevented threshing for a period of ten days to three weeks. Some reduction in grain vaaues is also feared. The unseasonable weather has brought about a sharp advance in grain quotations. During the past week the price of wheat advanced 835 cents on the Winnipeg Grain Ex- change.

NINE STATES ADDED TO LEAGUE e GER GER MANY REPRESENTED Geneva. -The new Council of the League of Nations, enlarged to 14 members by election in the Assembly, and having present Dr. Gustav Strese-' man as the representative of the Ger- man Republic, began its proceedings with an act of homage to Woodrow Wilson; as :founder of the League.. This homage took the form of ac- cepting in advance a bust of the ex President which will be presented to to League by Mr, and Mrs. R. J. Card-; well of New York. The States chosen for the nen- permanent seats in the Council are Poland, Roumania, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Colombia, Chile, Salvador, Holland and China, 'Though the Irish' Free State had anounced its candle I dacy for a seat to represent the Brit-' ish Dominions in the Council, it re- ceived only ten votes. Colombia re- ceived 48 out of it total of 49. Dr. Benes's plea for concerd, sin- cerity and collaboration In the further- ance of the high aims of the League was followed with tense interest by the crowded Council Chamber. After extending a warm welcome to 'Ger- many, whose adheeidn,he said, meant eo,much to the.furtue destiny of Eur- ope, Dr. Benes declared that there were no plans, no entrenched camps, no opposing factions in the Council, but only men whose pulse must ever beat to.the.fulfiirnent of the high men of putting into practice the funda- mental principles of the Covenant of the League.

FATE OF ITALIAN ' Natural Resources Bulletin. CREW IS MYSTERY - - When we. gaze on a great, forest tree it is not' easy to visualize it in terms of rich cloth and silken raiment. Andyet man, not content with silk, cotton, wool, linen, and a number of lesser sources of clothing material, 'now employs wood for the manufac- ture of the latest of the textiles- artificial silk, or rayon, as itis called by the trade. The basis of adl arti- ficial silk' ks cellulose, and cellulose is the principal constituent of wood. As long ago he 1889 Count Hilaire de Chard'annet produced artificial silk commercially, but it has taken many years of incessant labor to bring the various processes to that stage of per- fection Which is essential to commer- cial success. That the industryhas now become a great 'undertaking is shown by the fact that the world's pro- - duction in tons has arisen from 7,500 in 1909 to an estimated 100,000 for this year. PRINCIPLE OF.

El- lenia sank to the bottom of the ocean off the British coast, but what has become of her crew remains a mys- tery, The first report to Lloyd's that all hands were lost appears to have been premature, for the steamer Hom- eric, which rushed to the rescue of the sinking steamer, reports the possibil- ity that the crew were picked up, as numerous fishing craft were in the vicinity, but no word has been heard of them as yet. The Homeric was five miles from Ellenia when the distressed ` vessel sank, Twenty-five minutes Later she was over the spot where the ship dis- appeared. There was considerable wreckage, but no member of the crew was seen. A wireless message from the Hom- eric by way of Valencia to Lloyds: "Numerous sail and fishing craft and one steam trawler were in sight. The weather was fine, with slight sea. Presume crew abandoned ship and were picked up." The commander of the steamer Olympic, due at Cherbourg, wire- lessed the White Star Line by way of Queenstown: "Have been alongside Italian steamer Ellenia which is ask- ing for aesistance. Captain doesn't wish to abandon; have called other steamer to stand by and l am proceed- ing." roceedino." The Belgian steamer Inciter reports finding an empty lifeboat.. 'the disaster was due to a collision between the E1,enia and the British steamer Induna, which, although dam- aged, was able to continue.

Grey of Fallodon, who as Sir Edward Grey, was British Foreign Secretary -when the Great War broke out, in arspeech at the opening of the Liberal bazaar at Alnwick. He added that the entry of Russia into the League would do something of. great importance, and 1 that the door for its entry was open as soon as the Government of Russia had p-rrei through the transition stage and was willing to accept the obligations of the League Covenant and work for peace. not trouble, "The Locarno pact and the' entry of flermarry into. the League," he con- tinued, `"have nae°' 1t more remote and more fuel, anal le -I would like even to, say impossible -.that there should be any; war between the three countiree, Briberb4,-Germany and France, than it ever has been in their lifetime, There is a certain danger c'f a setback if there is too much uncritical gush about it." The Duty of the British and French Governments, continued Lord Grey, is to transform mistreat in Germany gradually into confidence, and the duty of the German Government is to re- move the misgivings felt in the salted countries. The general principle underlying the manufacturing methods is the treatment of the cel':ulose with chemi- cal re -agents to give a gelatinous solution which can be forced through a number of minute nozzles into a bath of solution (or in one process into air). This solution causes the coagulation of the liquid ..emerging. from the nozzles and thus _creates -the' cctuel figment, of artificial silk, though the material hiis to pass through several other stages, varying I with the process, before it finally em- , ergos as that glistening transparent gossamer to 'while! we are now so ac- custometl, but which would have amaz- 'ed many a nineteenth-century grand- mother.

Few vessels have penetrated Buch- anan Bay and beyond, according to Mr. MacKenzie, owing to ice condi- tions, and present Bache Peninsula detachment was only established after four effortsmade in successive years. On arriving. at Dundee Harbor, the flag at the police detachment was half" mast, and shortly after it was discover. ed that ConstableViotor Maisonneuve, her predicament, and no assistance was required.

In 1922 the Natural_ Resources Intelligence Service of the Canadian Dept of the Interior published a re-' port drawing attention to the unusu artificial silk manufacturing in its entirety. The following year Cour- tau:ds, Ltd., latgest:manufacturers in the United Kingdorn, sent engineers to Canada to investigate these represen- tations,, with the result that a plant was established in Cornwall, 'Ontario ,I in 1924, at a cost of $2,500,000. This would appear to be but the pre- liminary of many others. Canadian Celenese, Ltd., capitalized at $7,000,-1 000, is now constructing a large pant' at Drummondville, Que+,, and the How and Smith Paper Mils have formed a subsidiary company called the Can- adian Cellulose Co., whir$ will be op -I erated at.

Whether oil- burners, coal or coke; whether steam, hot water or warm air type of heater, there is a law of phy sins to °b'eerye, 1t is the law of cir- cult. The .water supply, our tele- phones, our electric light, our gas, yes, even our. food supply comes off the circuitewf supply. We get them as they go by. The closed circuit gels you nothing. So it is in heating your home. The steam condenses as it cools and 'runs back to the •boiler so more hot steam may enter the radi- ators. The hot water keeps in oirueulation if the house In kept warm. The warm air furnace demands the sante eirru• kation. Warm air rises and crowds cold air out. • Cold air must uoutinnal- ly enter the heat jacket of the furnace and keep the circulation. You can,ne more pour warm air into a closed cold room than you can pass hot water .. into a jug full of cold water.' The cold air must somehow get out. Herein lies the tsecrot Of satisfactory warm air furnace heating. Some eon - plain that. their northwest bedroom, for instance, will not heat on a cold windy day. The house to be heated with warm air shouldbe. very tightly built.' You can not compete with Florida or California in heating out- doors with a Inakege from y.oiu', borne. Don't try it. Frush air is a Ono thing but rather expensive to hent at pro - sent prices of 'coal aiid oil. Cricket Returns Wiredthe King. King George le an ardent cricket • fan.
