GENERAL Canada this year has had much mailer crops than usual of cereals and hay, due to hot, dry weather during much of the eurmner through out the Prairie Provinces, Ontario and Quebec. Root crops generally, however, have been fair to good and and there has been s fine crop of nipples, with yields of other fruits mostly below average. The wheat crop in the Prairie Provinces has been estimated by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics at 264,000,000 bushels from 25,177,000 acres, or an average of 10.4.8 bushels per acre. The omp is the smallest since 1024 and the average yield the lowest since 1919. The wheat crop for all Canada is estimated at 202,771,000 as comrpnred with 435,655,000 bushels last year. coarse grains are a light crop also, oats in the Prairie Prov- inces being estimated at 186,500,000 bushels against 245,726,000 bushels laid year, and barley at 48,500,000 bushels compared with 63,114,000 bushels. The wheat grneraily is of 800d quality; over 85 percent. of the wheat marketed to date in the Northern or better. In Quebec crops on the whole have been satisfac- and hay.

A period of hot, dry ‘menoed in June and lasted until near the close of the growing see- son. Grasshoppers caused widespread losses over southern and central areas of Manitoba and Saskatch- ewan and in southeastern Alberta. Damage from hail, plant disease and frosts was slight. Northern districts did not suffer as seriously from (‘fraught or grasshoppers, and. the best oiiop areas are found in the northern districts of Alberta, north- east and east central Saskatchewan and Northern Manitoba. In other areas yields range from slightly be- low average to almost a total fall- ure. Crops were poor over limited areas of south and central Saskat- chewan and in southwestern Man- itoba. Feed shortage is serious in some parts of the drought areas. Average wheat yield by province is estimated by the D0minion Bureau of statistics as follows: Manitoba 12.9 bushels, Saskatchewan 8.7 bushels. Alberta 18.1 bushels. Threshing was delayed by rains, but is now practic- sliy Jet/ed in southern stress, although s. small percentage of grain remains unihrcshed in nor- them districts. From August 1st. t0 October 13th farmers delivered 107,- 306,000 bushels of wheat to county elevators, which COIIIPBPCS with 101,- 850,000 bushels for the some period last year. The Alberto sugar beet crop is satisfactory and the esti- mated yield of 140,000 tons compar- es with 130,000 hon-s last year. Good progress has been made with fall ploughing in Manitoba, but in the other provinces it is backward.

Grape yields were considerably below those of 11st year and crops were reduced through damage by starlings in the Niagara Peninsula. vineyards, where the crop is estimated at Bipproxi- mately 75 per cent of last years. Appleeare plentiful and of good quality. The tobacco crop on a re- duced acreage is below average in quantity and quality, but is curing ivell. Pastures dried up early and it has been necessary to resort, to stable feeding sooner than usual in some districts. Recent rains have improved the soil in most areas, facilitating autumn ploughing and fail wheat seeding. The acreage sown to fall wheat is considerably increased and present growth looks promising.

NOVA scorn nm- 1s FOCAL roun- or oowmovznsv HALIFAX, Oct. 23—(C.P.)—Does Nova Exotic "lag behind the rest of Catiada." in the calibre of its er- tists? A storm of ppteest has been sfirred up in provincial art circles by Dr. Marius Barbcnu of the Na- tional Muscum at Ottawa, who holds a low opinion of Nova Scot- ian azt Here is what he said on the sub- ject in the address that provoked he discnt. “So far, artists who have made Nova Scotfa known to Outsiders grg not her own, but come from other Darts Of Canada. This province lags behind the rest of Canada in art; it lacks advanced artists in its schools of art: it needs fresh blood}: At its next meeting, the mm, Scotia Society of Artists "regret- ted" that Dr. Bar-beau should have made “such qrflsleedfng remarks." And President Edith A. Smith and 599ml"! N- K HEY wrote to the papers to straighten out the leo- tumr on a few points. "He evidently has never heard," they wrote, "of Ernest Lawson. a Halifax man, whose fame is so well known in Canada and the United States. and of Gvrth Russell. a son of Judge Russrll of Dartmouth, who has painted his native pro- vince. some of our Halifax artists have had their work exhibited at well known Canadian art centres and we might mcntfon Miss Mer- Joric Tozer as having painted out- standing pictures of Nova Scotia , scenery." As to the charge that schools liwk advanced instructing artists the society officers had this to say: "What better teachers could No- va Bootis have than those men who have taught in our own Nova Bootis College of M.

Pointing to the wide field for activity opened in this respect, Marion 5. Morrow, piuident of the Bureau of the Council of Social Agencies and of the Provincial Chapter of the I. 0. D. E, directed an appeal to Nova Bcotiam for financial aid. “In the history of Canada," she declared, "there has never been such a need for generous giving to and uplifting of our people. I real- ize first in every possible way we must assist, the children because, as our future citizens. they first need good food and clean, sanitary surroundings and, secondly, good education. "In visiting homes one realises how difficult the mother's task is and I sometimes wonder if we who are more fortunate would not slump in our efforts under such trying circumstances. Organizations are doing splendid work, but the personal touch is worth more than material relief, however necessary. The generosity of the people of our beloved Dominion is outstanding, but sometimes it is too indiscrimin. ately distributed, and that is where Social Service comes in. “The Community Chests supply the money but; each individual has his or her responsibility, In many cases women who are otherwise occupicd cannot work, but they can and would give wholeheartedly. "I appeal to the women to do their uttermost, even if it entails sacrifice. Their reward will be m seeing their children grow into healthy, well educated cizizens, who when we pas on will carry on the work we began.‘ "The Community Chest, I firmly believe, is the beet method of ob- taining the financial support ne- cessary, and in asking for money we need big subscriptions, of course, but to extend the interest we need everyone, rich or poor, |to give. ‘Many mlckles maloe a muclrle’ L9 an old adage but, a true one. "Having had 40 years experience in Social Service work I feel I can speak with knowledge and there- fore commend to your unbounded generosity the coming campaign. The need is great, Let u; meet it with our whole hearts and dig deep in our pockets and give to the last cent." v.12. Situation Serious in N. S. KENTVILLE, N. 3., Oct. 22.—(C. PJ-Stressing the danger facing un- suspecting children coming in 0on- tact with tuberculosis victims, Dr. A. F. Miller, medical superintendent of the Nova Scoiia Sanltorlum, told a large gathering here all indigent sufferers must. be assured of proper treatment. At present there is no provision for what Dr. Miller described as a "crying need of the province.” The situation, he said, is "serious and urgent." Not only must these pen- nlless victims be placed where they will receive proper treatment but they must be placed somewhere where little children, open to con- tact with them, will not run the danger of contracting the scourge. Many towns and municipalities already have passed a resolution, Dr. Miller said, favoring such care and treatment at their expense but. in most cases the matter had never got beyond the resolution. Statistics re- vealed somewhere in Nova Bcoiia were ‘.500 persons in noeci of treat- ment but precisely where these peo- pla were, what. treatment they were receiving and whether they were spreading the disease, all were ques- tions yet unanswered. Personal charity, said the super- intendent, is too haphazard; too uu- eveniy divided and it was time re- presentatives of municipalities and the Nova Scotia government united and decide what/s to be donc. l-le suggested the province levy a tux "so every tuberculosis sufferer may receive free treatment at public ex- pense." A tax of l0 cents P61‘ per- son, ha concluded, had proved sul- flcient to care for nil stiilerers in the province of Saskatchewan. zzA Prime Dressing for Wounds.- In some factories and 1701K shops carboiic acid is kept for usc in enu- terizing wounds and cuts sustained by the workmen.

The data are divided into eleven commodity chases nil for two 09081811111004 divisions, iihc dividing points between the each "l! and western divisions being W11 Wlllifim 0n the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National railways and Annetrang q; flu northern line of the Canadian 3n. tioniaL Comparisons with data for the previous week and 1hr the ous- responding week the previous yea: and also cumulative totals for bras years are included in the npusf with clmrin showing graphically the total loadings, The prompting with which these data are imnsd makes the report very valuable as a barometer of business conditions week by week, Time is the most important fac- tor in compiltng this 1139011 and consequently this detail mun be limited; but the eleven commodity closes are sufficient to give a fair- ly complete picture of the business for each week in the two divisions of Canada. A more comprehensive report in which 0011s. instead of carioeds Mid in which the freight carried by Canadian railways is reported under seventy-six commodity class- esisimicdforeschrnonth ap- proximately two months after the and of the month to which the data pertain. These data are div- ided into (1) freight loaded at Canadian stations, (2) freight rc- oeived from foreign railways 0r de- livered, to Canadian railways by ocean or lake boats. These import: are subdivided into fncight destin- ed to Canadian stations and freight dwtined to foreign points. This lat- ter class is foreign freight passing over Canadian railways and thi greater part of it is United States freight posing through Canada between perm on the Niagara river and the Detroit and 8t. Clair riv- ers. The report also shows the 0on- nsge of each 0! the seventy-sis commodity classes unloaded st m- titma and delivered 00 foreign 0on- neotiona. The dais. are compiled for each province and combined into a summary for Canada. The monthly reports show only the de~ tails from each province. These reports show not; only the busirnem being done by the rail- ways month by month, but from the tonnage of different commod- ities carried reveal the fluctuation: 1n many industries. For example, an increased loading of cement in any province is evidence of increas- ed ‘busines for cement mills and an increased construction work. Al- so the difference between the ton- nage loaded and unloaded in any province reveals the net imports or exports for that province by rail of any of the commodities listed. For the Prairie Provinces when practically all freight is moved by rail these net imports and exports are approximately complete, but for the other provinces movements by boats must also be considered. lilnss-(Ps Lilaimen! for Okilblnlns.
