Hog prices alone have increased so that 860,000,000 has been distributed among Canadian producers.

The Agricultural Minister estim-

ated the treaties added $80,000,000 to hog prices in Canada, adding that much to the pockets of farm- ers. Without the five-cents-a-pound butter duty, Australia and New zeniand could ship their products to Canada and make a profit st Canadian prices, said Mr. Weir. He estimated the treaties and duty added $13,000,000 to Canadian dairy farmers income representing the difference between Canadian and world butter prices.

The minister referred to the in- crease in exports oi Canadian fruits to the United Kingdom mar- ket. It had been estimated by Am- erleen officials that Canada. in- creased its apple trade 88 percent while United States lost that much.

Mr- Weir read n long list of pro- ducts, the exports oi which he claimed, had increased through the Ottawa agreements. Ehrports grew not only to the United- Kingdom but to other Empire countries.

Council, in all the schools, motion pictures will be used by way of il- lustration. It is expected these talks will prove of great interest and value.

Splendid eo-operation on the port of principals and teachers was giv- en in the dental examinations. The examining dentists were selected for each classroom by lot. Each den- tist covered the work in three class- rooms examinlng between lib and 120 children, each morning. He had two assistants, one to mark on the cha I; the child's defective teeth, the other to sterilize the instru- ments used in the test.

The children showed the keenest interest in the proceedings, regard- ing it as a new sort of "game." and responded readily. for the most part, to their instructions.

It is hoped that the information acquired by this means will bring to every parent's attention the great importance of dental health to the child. and point the way to rem- edying rlefects where. necessary. The campaign is essentialy an ed- ucational one, in which it is neces- sary for public opinion to be aroused.
