ADVANCE IN WHEAT

The Guardian's despatchcs yell- , terday announced a "sensational" rise of four cents in one day ll! lllfi price of wheat at Winnipeg. In ad- dition to the advance in ilflce- Ol" ders were still coming in and many of these are still unfilled. So runs the dsspatch. At first sight this advance ifuthe price of ‘wheat looks good. 0n ex- amination, however, it is only nnother phase of the Americaniz- ing process that has been going on in Canada _for some time. It will be remembered that. at the’ request of American wheat growers some months ago, the Washington government raised the duty on Canadian wheat froln 35 cents to 42 cents per bushel. This looked like closing the American market to Canadian wheat, locked like protecting the American farm- er from hrs Canadian competitor. ant the American millers needed Canadian No. 1 hard wheat to mix with the softer American wheat to produce the grade of flour accept- ‘able in the British market. In or- der to accomplish this the Wash- ington government allowed a re- bate of 99 percent of the regular tiriff on Canadian wheat imported (or the milling export business. The American miller not only gets g ,llis Canadian hard ‘wheat practi- cally free of duty but by means of ft is able to put up a brand of flour which can , ‘e successfully with Canadian flour in the British and other foreign markets. Not only this bufthd American stock raiser is supplied with the by- product of the milling, the Amou- can employee recolvee a good wage. The Canadian. on the other hand. ship's his raw product tc the United States. he gives no employment ‘to his countrymen, his wheat yields

no by-product for feeding purposes and he and his neighbor must inl- port their bran. shorts nnll

other feeds from the United States.

To help on this Americanising the Ming government admits Ameri-

can cattle feed free of duty and, worst of all the Canadian miller who ships his flour to Crest Bri- tain, meets the competition there of Canadian wheat milled in the United States.

And there is even worse than this. There have been complaints recently from English buyers as to the quality of what is presumably Canadian No. 1 wheat. Investigation has shown that wheat which left Canada for shipment abroad through United States ports as No. 1 Northern has in some mysterious manner become of a much lower grade by the time it reached Liver- pool. in other words Canadian wheat of the highest grade gets mixed up with an inferior grade of United States wheat while being "milled for export" in tile United States. in this manner Canadian wheat has lost its reputation in the ‘British Market, while United States flour. made largely of Canadian No. 1 Northern holds first place there. Either the United States bonding system must be tightened up or Canadian wheat and wheat products rnust find their way to the British markets by some other route than through the Un- ited States.

Notes By The Way

The Maritime Problem of lost and imperilled representation has n!‘ in... ' attention in e-rlismellt aqdthc press during the past few months. Slow growth and a continued exodus are the symptoms of the trouble. The ex-

. a

pectatiolis raised when the pro- vinces by the sea entered into uuicul with Canada have been

sadly disappointed. As to that all Scotia having already lost three of her original number of representa- tives in the House of Commons and five from her later maximum now stands to lose two of the six- teen. which she had so far retained. New Brunswick-has had serious losses in the past and although not

now in immediate danger of sees peril in and stands by

United States. We understand that not n fow of these are planning to- time their visit home in order to take in Carnival Week. The visit at that time will enable them to meet many former friends whom they could not meet at any other season thus adding an extra plea- sure to the visit home.

From now on till the last day of the Carnival the duty of all citi- zens will be to boost the affair and to do all possible to make it a success. Let it be a success from now on for "nothing succeeds like success."

ANNUAL SCHOOL MEETINGS

The Annual School throughout the Province will be hold next Tuesday. the 24th in- stant. It is hoped that extra care will be taken this year in making provision for the betterment of the schools in every particular both in of remuneration to the teachers. seeing that capable teachers are engaged and that trustees interested in the school shall be appointed. The future of the province depends upon the status of our schools.

In connection with a suggestion recently made that the different school houses be plscarded with the name of the district we trust

that arrangements with this cb- ject in view shall be made. The ‘benefits both to the travelling pub- lic and to the district in question are obvious. it would be well. in this connection, if the trustees should co-operate with the Tourist Association through its Secretary, glitz, W. R. Tiauoy in order that a uniform system of placardiag may be devised.

The profits of the deal were sifted through a ladder and what foil through was seized by the big provincee while the Marltimes had to content themselves with the coins that stuck to the rounds. Then by the might that makes right Ontario and Quebec took to themselves from the public domain that was as much ours as their an area as largo as that of Britain. France and Germany combined and fenced it in with their own lands. What did the Maritimes get out of that? Not a cent; not even thanks.
