Joseph e Woo is The most urgent requirement in Canada's Agricultural Products ' ANADA produces every year large quantities of wheat, oats, barley, butter, cheese, bacon, beef, eggs, apples, potatoes, grass seed and clover seed that she cannot consume. Her natural outlet for these pro- ducts is, of course, Great Britain -the one great consuming country of the world with an open market. Unfortunately, nearly every other country with any surplus of food products seems to want to send its surplus to this same market. The keenness of the competition on this, our only market, and the energy and resourcefulness of our competitors began to impress them- selves upon the Department of Agriculture some time ago, but it is only within very recent years that the real and only way to grapple with this problem has been discovered, or at least put into effect. This Department,, now beleves, as do also most of die farmers of this country, that the "grading" of our agricultural products is the policy and practice that is seeing us through the struggle and will assure us of our rightful place on the British market.

It may .be expected that in the future the actual users of the roads will be ca pled upon to contribute more sub- stantially.' Those who derive the most direct addantage, surely should bear the brunt of the financial load. Mr. Motorist and Truck Owner, your pleasure and profit in the roads is greater today than ever before. Your responsibility is greater, and it is going to be great- er still. Be concerned with your roads. Unnecessary damage to roads is done by heavy loads driven at any speed, and by passenger cars at high speeds. The law limits both loads and speed. If you and all other users keep well within the limits of the law, it is safe to say that hundreds of thousands of dollars now spent on road repair work will be saved to you. For those who will not obey the law, penalties are pro- vided. Inview of these requests by the Government for highways, sane and intelligent use theof notice is given that the provisions of the law arebeing rigorously enforced.

OVERSEAS WITH PUBLISHERS Most Canadian weekly editors will agree that the best thought about leav ing home is that of the joy of return- ing to it. At very short notice I left mine on July 29th, to represent the Canadian Weekly Newspapers associa- tion and the British Columbia and Yu- lcon Press association in the Canadian delegation to the Third Imperial Press conference in Melbourne. • I had been in Vancouver on the pre- vious day and while the mists' of smoke and fog veiled the Lions which crouch upon her guardian peaks, they William Davies, of The Western Mail, Cardiff, and David Davies, of Swan- sea. From the "north countree" come Sir. Joseph Reir and Ernest Wood- head; from Sussex, 1VIrs. Henson -In- field; from the Midlands, Sir Edward Iliffe, Capt. Eden, M. P., and N. B. Graham. The Scotsman is represent- ed by a son of its editor, J. E. R. Findlay, and a son of the editor of • The Sydney Morning Herald, W. O. Fairfax, returns with us after four. years at Oxford. • Another interesting personality is the, Rt. Hon. C. W. Bowerman, repre- senting the printing and allied trades. Malta contributes a jolly scholar, edi- tor, barrister, and historian, in Pro- fessor A. Bartolo. Sir Harry Brit- tain, 'who organized the first Imperial Press conference, is with the party, and India is represented by Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Moore, The Statesman, Calcutta. 'Capt. R. H.

To me, heading for Nanaimo, where evening disclosed great mountains landlocking the blue, the rock appeared as, a .Crusader, s a mailed knight, with' curling crest of fir tree on his helmet, looking towards the Pacific, upon which I was so soon to set forth. As though to bring additional heart - pangs, the drive from Duncan to Vic- toria over the Malahat mountain took to itself new charm. dustless road, pink of fireweed and white of "heck- sies" on emerald green, while across the land slanted that long light which comes at eventide to transform the aisles of Douglas fir into temples of intenser worship. , A lovely moon spread silvery sheen over our parting, as the necklace of golden lamps about Victoria's bays sank low and Cape Flattery sent a long flash astern to bid us God -speed. "Aorangi" sounds outlandish, but. the Union Steamship Company of New Zealand/m is wiser thaxi many in its choice of names. The greatest pal' in the Alps of Maoriland is Mt. Cook. ,Its Maori name signifies "the. cloud piercer"—Aorangi. It is a hap- py augury that this largest of motor - driven ships bears the British and Ca- nadian delegates to a conference which,should be instrumental in shar- pening those weapons by which more men may climb to wider knowledge and deeper appreciation of the British Conmonwealth of Nations.

Mrs. O'Leary and several ladies in the British dele- gation accompany their husbands. There are many interesting people on board. Americans ' dwindled in number after Honoluhi, but Austra- lians and New Zealanders abound. The Colonial office is represented by `Col W. Banks Amery, who has been ar- ranging for the settlement of au "ad- vance guard" of Hebrideans on Van- couver Island, and' is concerned with immigration to Australia.. In the genial Col. James` Sclater, who is re- turning to his post in Australia, the Canadian Pacific Railway is well re- presented. • Nobody appears to worry about getting anywhere, though over 400 !Hiles of ocean slips beneath our keel ., every twenty-four hours. Gradually one's circle of acquaintance widens. Maxi, and varied are the exchanges of views and debates. ` Seven times 'a day you may eat if you will, and a great • variety of deck games awaits you..
