The weather was fine, and the beautiful grounds at the Experimental Farm were viewed with great interest.

MOSCOW. July 13--~ThQ Tass agencyrpubliahiug 1m first report of seizure by Chinese officials of the Russian owned Chinese Eastern Rail- way, said toalght that Manchurian troops, including well armed Russian White Guards had advanced to "the very frontier" of eastern Siberia and Manchuria.

Its report read, in part: "Simul- taneously with news of seizure of the management of the Chinue Eastern Railway, came the report of concen- tration along Soviet frontiers of Manchurian troops, fully armed and on a. war footing which had moved to the very frontier."

According to the same reports. Russian White Guard detachments, which the Manchurian commanders intend to send forth on Russian ter- ritory, were lined up with the Man- churian trocps facing the frontier. "The report adds that the Chinese have arrested forty Soviet Railway workers."

TOKIO, July ibx-dbespatchea to the Japanese news agency Rengo. say that the former Russian man- ager and assistant manager of the Chinese Eastern Railway left for 'Si- berip tonight with their families and other Soviet officials, in compliance with the Chinese order for their de- portation.

Chang Ching-I-Iui, Governor of the Harbin district, has forbidden pub- lic meetings under rigid penalties andthe city is heavily policed, being virtually under martial law. Two Chinese gunbcats are anchored in the Sunagi river near Harbin.

A Moscow despatch received at the Chinese eastern headquarters in Harbin says that the Soviet govern- ment has appointed L. B. Serebriak- ov, a member of the Railway com- missariat, as plenipotentiary to pro- ceed to Harbin to seek a diplomatic settlement of the problem. He was stated to have left Moscow for Man- churia today. Advices from Harbin state that, in view of the probability of a tie up on the Chinese Eastern Railway in Manchuria, the Harbin consular body is considering media- tion to leek a. pcaceable settlement.

Canada ’s Attitude Stated to U. S.

OTTAWA, July l3.—-'l‘hs attitude of Canada towards the United States tariff bill has been clearly stated to the United States authorities in re- presentations made by thebanadian legetion at Washington. This was stated here today by the Department of External Affairs, There has been no formal protest against proposed fir"! chances by the dominion gov- ernment, but, in the course of "con- versations" which have taken place the’ position of Canada has been mods clear.

Motion To Petition Federal Government To Adopt Regulation "For P. E. I. -Adopted Unanimously. n

At a. meeting of potato growers and dealers held on Saturday in the Rinse of Wales College hall it was

‘ ‘y decided to request the Federal Department of Asrlculture to put into effect compulsory inspec- tion of all tableatock potatoes for lnterprovincial and export trade, be- ginning with the season of 1919. This decision was reached following, an address by Mr. G. E. ' Macintosh. Fruit Commissioner for Canada and a general discussion on the‘ situation. The wording of the resolution was similar to the one paasedat the au- nual meeting of the P. E. .1. Potato Growers‘ Association earlier in the afternoon, which appears elsewhere in The Guardian.

The meeting was presided over by Hon. W. M. Lea. Minister of Agri- culture. "

Mr. Macintosh in his address said there seemed to be a growing tend- ency throughout the Dominion for more inspection of perishable fruits and vegetables, when the system of inspection on request was introduced, it was felt that as soon as that serv- ice became sufficiently popular to warrant a reduction in the inspec- tion fee, this reduction should be made, There has been an unprcde- ccnted growth in sentiment favorable to the measure since its introduc- tion in 1024. This feeling has grown more rapidly in some sections than in others, but on the whole through- out the Dominion it is increasing in popularity. The Federal Minister of Agriculture has finally decided that in any Province where ninety per cent of the shipments move under request, the inspection fee will be reduced to $3.00 per car. Already iherc has been an indication that the demand will be beyond what was anticipated. 1n view of the fact that the Province of New Brunswick al- ready made request and the regu- latlon has been passed for compul- sory inspection of all potatoes from that Province moving to points in Canada. or elsewhere, lbfr. Macintosh felt that the suggestion should be brought lo the attention of the Is- land growers and shippers with the least possible delay.

Inspection in Prince Edward Is- land last year, according to the rec- ords given Mr. Macintosh before leav- ing Otiawa, amounted to beiween M00 and 4.000 cars, which represent- cd an increase over the previous year. An increase has been notice- able in like manner in almost every Province except Nova Scotia, and there was some increase noted there ihis year, The distributors in Ontar- io, fl-om Toronto, around the Bay to Niagara Falls, covering approximate- ly 8,000 car loads, have already de- cided on u , ‘ -ry inspection meas- ures as have also New Brunswick producers. Every car of fruit and vegetables moving out of British Col- umbia will move under Government supervision.

An advertising campaign is under consideration by the Federal Depart- ment, and the speaker was anxious
