TRADE RIcrURE
Montreal, eastern anchor point of the still-developing seaway, was represented by G. Arnold m, general manager of the Bank of Montreal, who gave the American and foreign delegates a “digit: appraisal of the Cana- mn position in the burgeoning trade picture. '
The Canadian bank executive, while declaring he had no inten- tion of “playing down" misgiv. in Canada about absentee— md particularly American—own @311in in industry there, ex— pressed his doubt that “the con- cern about US. economic domi- nation of Canada is as widely felt as one might gather from what “ears in prin .”
“After all-a great many Cana— dians work for subsidiaries of American companies, and few of

While Canadian sense of disquiet at the role of American investment Inltheir e c o n o my had been heightened in recent weeks by [such opposing American govern- mental moves as import restric- tions on oil. lead and zinc. he of~ tered this explanation from a Canadian financicr's viewpoint: “Trading troubles are charac‘

Prices of cattle. like retail and wholesale prices of beef, have averaged well above levels current in 1957 and are expected to remain thaI way throughout the last quarter of 1958. These increases have been most strik— ing in western Canada and for lower quality cattle. At Oaigiary, l‘or instance. prices ot good cows averaged $16.04 per 100 lb. alive during January-August, 37 per cent higher than a year earlier and prices of good feed-er steers averaged as high as prices of good slaughter steers. _
The Minister of Agriculture an— nounced. on April 7, that the floor price on Good. Steers would be $17.50 per 100 lb. alive at Toron- to shockyardts (Ii. e. 80 per cent of the average annual prices for 1948-57), with appropriate differ- entials at other markets. This level will be» in elifect until the end of March 1959. Prices at T0- rontio to the end of August aver- aged $5.11 higher than the floor price.
HOGS
The most important features of the Canadian hog situation this year are (1) the pronounced cyc—

nouncements of higher price gu— arantees under the Agricultural Stabilization Act, and I‘ll the de— layed cyclic upswing in boy, mar— kctings in the United States. in Canada, the current upswing in hog marketings began in late 1957 and has been gaining no~ mentium throughout the first nine month of 1958. The sharp increase registered in the third quarter may he explained. in part, by an unusually early seasonal upturn in marketings; output was great- er in Miguel than in July for the first time in at least ten years. Total macketings for the year are expected to approcimate 6.2 million head, about, 15 per cent more than in 1967 and 17 per cent more than the ten year average
(19483?) d! 5.8 million. As in previous years of heavy produc- lion. the greatest increase has been in Western Canada.
Consumers have shown a decid— cd tendency to buy more pork since beef became. more expen— sive and pork cheaper, Whole - sale prices of eight pork cuts. fresh. cured and cooked, averag— ed 0.8 to 6.5 per cent lower dur- ing January to August this year than a year earlier. At the same time. domestic disappearance in— creased ten per cent. Quantity - wise. this increase was 41 million pounds (to a total of 470 million poundsl, offsetting a decrease of 40 million pounds In the disap- pearance of beef.
On April 7, the Minister of Agriculture announced that the floor price for grade A hogs at Toronto Stockyards would be $25: 00 per 100 lb. warm dressed “night. until the end of March. 1959, with appropriate differen- tia l s at stockiyards at other centers. On September 11, the Minister added that the floor pric— es at other points would be as follows: $22.25 at Winnipeg and $21.50 at Saskatoon, Calgary and Edmonton.
Hog prices in 1958 have usual~ ly been below 1957 levels, but until September. were well above government support prices at all markets. However, prices‘al all points declined fairly steadily throughout June. July and August, and, in the month of September, weekly average prices at Saska— toon dropped to within $100 of the support levels. The margin at oth- or points at the end of Septem— ber ranged from $2.00 to $3.00.

Al— though prices of grade A hogs at both Toronto and Winnipeg were usually higher during January - August, .1958. prices at Winnipeg dropped below those at Chicago in late August and averaged about $2.40 lower during the month of September. FLOOR POLISHERS
For getting around furniture and into corners easier it seems a two brush floor polisher has it over a three brush one. Where floor area is exceptionally largc the three brush is preferred. Us— ually the heavier types do a bet— ter polishing job but they should» n’l be so weighted that they are tioo‘hard to control.
