Statistics recently compiled show that, compar- ed with population, the stock of cattle in Canada to- day is exactly what it was - twelve years ago. This means that the yearLv increase of cattle has only’ kept pace with the increase in population allowing no margin for more export trade. It means also that we are only lrzn"cly' holding our own in cattle pro- duction allhoiich iletnaziil "abrold and facilities for reachinglhe mzlrltels have increased tremendously:

Those who are hclntlaning the reduced value of the dollar may find some consolation in an article in the Business Digest of which the following is an ex- tract :-

“Don‘t forget that the “SO-cent dollar‘ idea cuts both ways. Sure enough a dollar spent now will only buy half ‘(IS much as it would have bought five years ago. But by the same token, don’t forget that a dol- lar saved now is likely" five years from now to be worth two dollars. “('h:lll<_'es lo make 100 per cent on yYour monev" are bein_e' ilffeirlrl by every pronlotei" of oil and mining" stock". Yet, right here and now, the conservative investor is being; offered a chance to make llltl per cent on his money in the most solid sort of gilt-eilcretl sectirititas. How? Simply by saving it now. For. when coininotlity" prices come down- to normal 2l_J,'&llll———‘<lll(l very few [Jeople tleny" their be- lief that, sooner or later, they will come flown mater- ially'—it is obvious that lnonev saved now will be

“worth" then proportionally more. $500 saved five ytears "ado is worth today. actually" in coinminlitywili- come value. only $250. llnl. $500 saved today, will five years hence, if commodity' prices drop one-half, be worth $1,000. A

A'nd even that iloseift tell the whole story. Sup- pose that SSOO saved today; invested in goodbonds, many of which "an be bought, under present con- ditions at prices which will yield 6 per cent or bet~ tcr. Five years hence when commodity prices have dropped back, these bonds will be yielding 4'-’_- or 5 percent. Iii othci- words, they will have appreciated in value, giving a further profit on this apprecia- tion." ‘ ll\\'|.l(ill'I'H.\\'l\(i. '

The Stale Legislature of Massachusetts has passed u daylightsaving hill by a vote of 181 to 38. The (iaylight saving law bet-omes effective in New York State next Sunduj-., and the heads of many key, industries announce that they will observe it despite“ the fact that ‘ailrtlzltl time tables will be based on standard time. The Journal has been of opinion that the opposition to daylight saving which developed in Canadian Parliament and the U. S. Congress, was the‘ result of prejudice rather than reason, and we should not be surprised if before long both these legislative bodies face about on the question. In the meantimeg the people of Ottawa, Toronto, and Montreal are to. enjoy the sunlight regulation this summer and the advantages will be far greater than the slight in- convenience that may be caused a comparatively small proportion of the ation in railroad time.-

When John D.

In order that the public may have the opportunity of contributing lo the benefactlou. This ls unjust ~20 Mr. Rockefeller, who l; one of the moat generous givers In history. Nevertheless, the man who devotes vast ‘sums to the public 500d and keeps the matter a secret la rare llndced. Even If he ls not over fond o.’ publicity he duet take u normul human satisfaction In being praised, in having the admiration and re- spect of his fellowmen. 'N0t In re- cent history has there been a man who gave so much money under u seal of secrecy as Mr. George Eust- man, of Rochester. the famous ko- dak maker. Thejact has recently been disclosed that Mr. Eastman is ' the nlysterloils “Mr. lSmIth," who at one lime and another has present- ed to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology more than $10,000,- 000. The gifts have been spread oy er several years, yct it "was only a few days ago that the secret leaked ‘out.

In the ulean- tilne, he saved his money, knowing lhilt one day he would need lt for his own business.

Wonderful MoneyMaker.

‘Phat (line came, and he bade adieu to the bank. and began the business which now employs 18,000 men and women. As William l(‘. Chenery points out in the New Yorlll ‘Times, only one romntlc element ls lacking In the story of George East‘ man's great success. He never was seriously handicapped for lack of capllnl. To begin he had his own savings, and then when he needed a few thousand dollars more he found another dlochester man who was wllllng lo back him to that ex- lcnl. Not long ago this lormer partner died, leaving an estate of about $16,000,000, mostly the fruit of the small investment he made thirty years ago. The business grew by glunt strides. There were new inventions and one of the finest ad- v "tlslilg tralupaigns, over curried on. Who is not familiar wIlh the slogan, “If ll isn't an Eastman it isn't a ltotlalt?"

A Patriotic Sacrifice.

One of the most Interesting things we recall about ‘Mr. Eastman Is that ln the Winter al.1917423, when war demands produced u coal famine, and many people were without fuel, he shut off the heat In his own mag- nlflclenl conservalgrles. und perml-t- ted his collection or exotic plants to perish. rather than waste tho coal to keep them alive. We can Imagine that to n lover of beauty like George. Eastman, thll; was a far harder test of patriotism than would have been the glvlng of thousands to a war charity. die was a cheer- ful subscrlher to war funds. and gave more than n mllllon dollars to relief.
