Hon. C, A. Dunning, Minister of Railways and Canals, made this an- diounéément in a statement issued uesday. son Bay. ari ong] The Minister stated, this ship- ment should not be taken to indi- cate that the Hudson Bay route was already available in a commer- cial sense. It would be unfo: ate if such an impression should: go, abroad. - "As a matter of fact," the statement said, "our Hudson Bay enterprise. has $iiracied. 5 Le much attention,' and.

The elevator and a deep water. dock will be ready for use by the fall of 1931. Referring tothe one-ton ship- ment by the Hudson's Bay Com- pany, Mr. Dunning said it was not a movement in the ordinary com- mercial sense, It had gone into Churchill under special arrange- ment, and will go overseas by the company's 'steamer Ungave, Its chief significance will be its his- toric interest to the company, which for 260 years has been iden- tified , with the development ol trade and commerce through Hud- ARCHDEACON DEAD Rev.

Therefore, after con- sultation with the officers of the Canadian National Railways, we have reached the conclusion that 1? would be unwise to attempt to es- tablish public passenger and freight services to Churchill / this fall, or to encourage thé movement of special excursion parties. There are other considerations also, . At present the population at Chiirch- ill consists almlost entirely of em- ployes connected with the raflway or harbor work, and there is no provision for the care of the gefi- eral public. The question of a townsite is receiving the attention of the Manitoba provincial authgr- ities, who have engineers on the ground at the present time in con- nection with proposed plans. There is the important question of water supply also to be determined. By next spring the railway will be ready for formal opening, and by that time I have no doubt the ar- rangem®nts contemplated by the provineial authorities in regard to the townsite will be ready for an- nouncement.

Helping 'the dredges are two 500 cubic yard steel dump scows served by the tugs George W. Yates and Graham Bell. Included in the fleet also are two self-propelling hopper barges. An average of nearly 6,000 cubic yards has been removed daily dur- ing the season, and on certain days 8,000 cubic yards has been handl- ed.

DEFINITE MOVE T0 BREED RABBITS i! AUSTRALIA Plan to Import Five Hundred} / Angora Rabbits 'Sydney, Australia, Sept. 13.--A- definite move is to be wade to cial scale in Australia. It is pro- posed to bring out a consignment of between 400 and 6500, and a jgroup of Sydney financiers are be- hind the project to establish a large industry in New South Wales for the producution of fur and meat. Importing rabbits to Australia sounds like carrying coals to New- castle, for Australia has been in- fested with millions of rabbits tor vears and the state governments would offer almost anything in the form of subsidy to anyone who could guarantee the rodents' exter mination. But the Australian rab- bit is a worthless scalawag of the rabbit family and bears no more relation to the Angora of commerce than a bolthead does to a trou. However, it is believed that the Angora would thrive as 'well «in Australia as, the other type of ragb- bit whiéh has multiplied by the nmil- lions in this country. Negotiations are now going forward to obtain the sanction of the Federal Gov- ernment, the necessary permits having been given by the ministers of agriculture in New South Wales, ia. Costly Earthquake Wellington, New Zealand.--The which recently laid waste a large section of New Zeal- land will cost the Dominion ap- proximately $10,000,000, according to Hon. A. J. Stallworthy, New Zea- land's Minister of Health, who gave the first authentic statement as to the damage done when he ad- dressed the House of Representa- tives recently. s Submarine Upheavals Sydney, Australia--When the steamer Aelybryn was midway Bes tween Cape Maria van Diemen and Sydney recently she passed close to two submarine upheavals, accord- ing to her master, Captain James Stevenson, who said that without warning a great surge of water rose out of the sea and gradually grew to a height of about thirty feet before settling down again, He estimated that the width. of the mass of water was between fifteen and twenty feet. A quarter.of an hour later a sec- ond upheaval occurred in the same way. No sensation was felt on board the ship, but Captain Steven« son believes there must have been a terrific upheaval at the bottom of the sea. 100 Years Old Victoria, B.C., Michael Finnerty.' who came from Ireland to the Unit- ed States in 1860 and a few years later moved to Vancouver Island where he farmed for fifty years at Gordon Head, celebrated his hundredth birthday on August 15 at Cowichan Bay.

The fish meal is manufactured from pil- chards which are caught in millions off the coast of Vancouver Island. According to Hon. S. L. Howe, commissioner of fisheries, it has been shown that calves fed on a ra- tion of fish meal had at the end of a year an average height of two and a half inches in excess of the standard and an average weight of 30 pounds in excess of the stand- ard weight. He added that herds fed on a ration of fish meal are free from goitre and abortion, and that cases of bovine tubercu- losis are relatively unknown among cattle so fed. ENTERPRISE IS ITS 'OWN REWARD Wa ' Smithers. B.C., Sept. 13.--TFurmn- ing' was "without compensation for 0. 8. Lawson, of Telkwa, so long as he did as his neighbors and merely pulled stumps and planted vegetables. 'The only real cash ne received was after he had made the rounds of his trap-lines in win- ter, After 'he had sold his fur catch he had enough to grubstake him through the spring and sum- mer. on his farm. He called him- self a farmer but the revenue came from fur, What worried Lawson most was the uncertainty of the fur catch. It was even more uncertain than his crops. So he set to thinking and evolved a plan to grow fur as he grew crops. He became a fur farm- er, choosing mink as his main line. He fenced in an enclosure and es- tablished his breeding stock--one pair of mink. 'That was six years ago. In Au- gust this year Mr. Lawson accept- ed one order alone for ten pairs of mink involving several thousand dollars, Other orders are being re- ceived almost daily, and it is doubt- ful if any line of industry in the Bulkley Valley has developed so rapidly as this one. With a feady market for the superior grade of fur he raised in this district, Mr. Lawson thinks that more people should go in for fur farming. COLONIZATION OF BRITAIN NEEDED Rt. Hon. George Lansbury Says Land Crying Out for Cultivation London, Sept. 13.--The need * for "colonization of Britain" rather than training amen for land werk and then sending them to the Dominions, was stressed 'by. Rt. Hon. George Lans- bury, first Commissioner of Works in the Labor Cabinet, in a speech at Bromley. Despite subsidies, agricul- ture was going from bad to worse, he said. He refused to accept the view that Great Britain's lands were now useless. Britain had trained men for land work and sent them 16,000 miles away to the Dominions, while outside the training centres miles and miles of some of the best land in the world cried out for cultivation, Whatever the difficulties, Mr. play of competition, owners, recognizing the serious posi- . tion of their industry! would dgree tof" cars on the highway toda and. eastern Washington 'one of the American continent. route of the early fur trading diuys, stampeding gold 'mines and huge beef drives diggings. ing from 1811 and Ovilde de ests of Company await turn. smooth gravel "highway he.can see a few over which Hardy: finérs (pressed their way days of the 'sixties, It also Was ur- ged that mdst of Brifain's finaficidl eggs were being put into the one baw sket, namely Hc Sratlway dh - * Aa" "I am quite certain," .
