SHARP RISE IN
TEA PRICES'
Faced with ruin due to appalling
losses over thepast three years, tea -
growers of Ceylon, India, Java and
Sumatra have cut down. their exports
15% this year as compared with the
peak years of '29 And '30. This re-
striction has had the desired effect,
and prices have risen sharply. Pack-
ers of fine teas in Canada have been
forced to increase prices, but as the
average pound of good tea will make
250 -caps or ,more, it is still the cheap-
est drink next 'to water itself

FROM THE "TIMES"
'61 YEARS AGO
We :were given a copy o , the
Wingham Times dated August, 29th,
1872 by Mr. ;j. A; Graham. This was
the 19th issue of the paper of which
his father was the proprietor and
founder. There are two articles in
that issue that Were very interesting
and we quote as follows:
"Last week we took a drive through
a part of Morris and Wawanosh, in
the neighborhood of l3elgrave. We
were agreeably surprised to find so
many fine looking farms in that .lo-
cality. The land is mostly gently
rolling with a smooth surface. Many
fields are clear of stumps, and in a
few years more the crops may all be
cut with the mower and reaper. The
land seems to be of good quality, nei-
ther too heavy nor too light. Many
of the fanners are getting up good
buildings, and the Country begins to

Quality of Storage Ice
In reckoning the quantity of ice
required to be stored against next
year's hot season, a cubic foot of ice
weighs 571 pounds. One ton of solid
ice measures approximately 35 cubic
feet. A •consumption of 2 cubic feet
(115 pounds) per day for four mon-
ths would amount, to nearly seven
tans. Allowing for waste when stich
a comparatively small body of iceis
stored, a building of 10 feet srltiare
and 10 feet high will afford amok.•
!;pace for that quantity of ice, if it
is carefully packed. Fifty pounds pet
Iday for four months would amount
Ito three tons. Allowing for waste, a
