Cain recently, they handed over gold to the red men of the far morth for the last of Indian lands to be ceded in the » 9s British empire. The party has new returned. The photographs here show some interesting character studies of the expedition. (1) A Cree Indian squaw at Trout Lake outside her tepee; (2) LEFT to RIGHT, H. N. Awrey, Cree chief with 16-pound trout, and W. C. Cain; (8) and (4) pair of Indian girl twins at Trout Lake. There were three pair of twins in this lo. cality--which is unusual among Indians, and 5) Indian family of George Rose, 'thirteen in number, belonging to a new post just cre- ated at Fort Albany this year among Atta-Wapiscal Indians. The pictures were taken by Mr. Awrey. PLAN CO-OPERATIVE WHEAT MARKETING i; i . . Idea is Proposed in Opposi- tion to Government Paris, Aug, 8--Farm aid through a vast plan o "co- operative wheat mar- keting is a solution that has been of- fered in parliament by Henri Queu- ille, former Minister of Agriculture. The 'scheme has the backing of the important radical party and farm and industrial authorities think it has a good chance of success, with the modifications necessary to get such measures through a parliament. The French idea is proposed in op- position to suggestions of govern- ment monopolies, price-fixing and ex- port or import licenses, coupled with arbitrary increases and decreases in customs. Under this scheme wheat growers would form an association which would erect warehouses, store the wheat, sell a twelfth of the crop monthly and make advances to the farmers on warehouse certificates. All farmers, therefore, would get the average price throughout the year and the marketing bureau, as. well as the farmer, would not be tempted to speculate on prices. Since the entire crop of usually more than a quarter of a million bushels would be under the control of one selling agency, prices would be well stabilized. As France needs some hard foreign wheat to mix with her own, 'the marketing authority would have the right to export wheat and the right to import a like, amount duty free. An investment of $24,000,000 for warchouses is contemplated. The funds might be furnished by the ex- isting goverfimental agricultural cre- dit fund. Strong steadying influences on prices would be the various federal purchasing agents who buy for the army, navy and many public institu- tions. LARGE DEPUTATION URGE NEW HIGHWAY Would Rin from Trenton to Kingston Via Bay of Quinte Toronto, Aug. 8.--Frontenae, Lennox and Addington, Prince Ed- ward and Hastings Counties, re- presented by a deputation, 100 strong, carried their appeal for a new 'provincial highway--from Trenton to Kingston by way of the Bay of Quinte and Lake Ontario shore line--to Queen's Park, and Hon. George S. Henry, Minister of Highways, yesterday. Nothing more at the moment than "'serious con- sideration" of their appeal was promised by the Highway's head. The deputation, which was head- ed by Colonel T. A. Kidd, M.P.P,, Kingston, and H. S. Colliver, M.P. P., Prince Edward, argued that such a road would not*only provide better facilities for the ever-in- creasing American tourist traffic, but would help the farmers in their present long hauls to market, and would supply decent connection be- tween the urban and rural districts in this area. Speakers who favor- ed the construction of the highway were: Mayor Fraser of Picton; Dr. P. 8. Northirore of Bath, F. New- man, Chairman of the Kingston Chamber of Commerce; Reeve Mil- Jer of Ernestown, C. P. Calnan of the Picton Gazette, Warden Mont- gomery of Prince Edward, H. B. Clemenson -of Picton and John 8. Howard of Kingston. Strawboard -- New Industry Regina, Sask., Aug. 6.--People who live in straw houses may be far from rare of a new prairie project, gaining western vigor on the Saskatchewan prairies, comes into active being. It is the plan of a new body--not vet chartered, but planning a $150,000 in- strawboard that may be used ex- tensively for building purposes. Four thousand feet of strawboard daily are being produced by a sam- ple machine in operation near Re- gina--and, at that rate, the waste crop of a single acre lasts two days, and the straw of a quarter section would keep the machine busy a year The finished panels come out of the machine ready for use, some five feet by 14 feet , laced with strength- cning wire, Virtually fire-resisting, claim its backers, the strawboard product has thereby an added value. Tested un- der a blow torch the panel did not burn, though the section immediate- ly in front of the torch turned into a type of charcoal. - Piston pressure of close to 100 pounds a square inch it is explained, compresses the board so tightly that the air spaces in it are too minute to permit of the presence of oxygen for combustion. Two inches thick, the panels are claimed by their 'originators to be the finest combination of heat and noise insulation in existence. For building uses, the outside wall may be stuccoed and plaster is applied to the interior wall, Both materials form a perfect bond with the straw- board, because of its rough surface. Canadian rights te the system of manufacturing straw panels have been acquired by Dr. E. A. McCus- key, well known physician of Regina from the parent organization in Bel- gium, corporation-- to convert the surplus straw of the west into pancls of | FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF A GREAT NEW SERIAL STORY TO BE STARTED ON onday, August [2 IN THE Oshawa Daily Times FURTHER ANNOUNCEMENT.
