Pro- The People £ THE EDITOR TALKS The crowds that now are seen ini Bowmanville on every fine Saturday afternoon and evening surpasses anything ever seen in this town be- fore the automobile crowded out the family driving horse. Saturday evening last was a wonderful sight for besides the line up of cars on both sides of King Street every cross street in the main business section north and south was parked with cars The stores were doing a rushing trade and clerks were kept on the go tili well on to midnight.- Farmers frorn many miles around the country were here-one lady from out north remarking to us that she neyer re- members seeing so many old neigh- bors in town at one time. Bowmnn- ville stores have a wide-spread rep- utation for best classes of goods at reasonable prices, hence it is no sur- prise to see farmers and others com- ing long distances to buy household and farnily -needs in Bowmanville. Even Oshawa people, numbers of thern, corne here to deal. - Short courses in various profes- sions are increasing from year to year as they should. Editors have caught the enthusiasm and are hold- ing a short course in journalism in c onnection with University Exten- sion, University of Toronto from September il to 16, arranged at the request of and in co-operation with the Canadian Weekly Newspaperx Association. The registration, fee is $2 and ench person pays their ex- penses. This course, is intended prirnarily f or editors of weekly newspapers. Last year 128 attend- ed. The chief object of the course is to furnish instruction and inspira- tion in the practical conduct of cdi- tonial departmcnts of ail newspapers. The course will include 25 lectures by professors, legal lights and editors of note. Application should be made before date of openîng to Mr. W. .J, Dunlop, B. A., Director of Toronto, Toronto. Again we repeat the oft repeated panacea for ail labor troubles, whîch is this. If ail employers of labor and their ernployees wouid in the reai truc sense bc govcrncd in al their business reiatîonsbips by the Golden Rule principf e industrial troubles wouid largO ' vanishand pence' 'would reign where now there is almost constant strife and discon- tent between employer and ernploy- ee. The Congregationalist put it' tbusly: The great need of industry is a new spirit-the spirit of good wiii and f£air play. The war spirit, prevails on botb sides in most of the pending labor controversies. Per- manent pence can only corne through mutuai desire for a square deai, The reai problem in the coal fields and arnong the railroads is not whîch side shall dictate terrns, but the problem of getting both labor and employers to serve the public fairly, and treat each other as friends should treat each other. Isn't that the big iden which Goverrnent medintors shouid be ernpbasizing la these strike con- ferences? THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK 1 Canada's Prosperity Depends on. Farmeis. At this season of the year, as eacb ycar cornes around, the êes of Can-1 adian business rnen are focussed oný thé- crop situation. On it depend thel loosening of crédit, the prosperityl "of the farmer, the crnployrnent of labor, and, in fact, the Dorninion's future yearly industrial and commer- cial activity. The sigas at this writîng are f or a good crup. The Prairie Provinces have been biessed wîth heavy, gener- ai rains, an almost excessive moist- ure in the East bas assured a bount- eous hay crop, wbile the fruit crops in the Okanagan, Niagara and Ann- apolis Valicys are reported rnost prornising. Livestock, with ample pasturage, bas improved. That very oid and conservative organization, The Hudson Bay Comn-, pany, is confident of the business out- look, for at the recent annual rnect- ing, Sir Robent Kindersley, the Gov- ernor, said :-"Canada's real pros- perity bas always depended and mnust dépend upon bier crop -and the weil- being of lier agnîcuiturai commuai- 1tics. Disturbances of economic conditions due to the war are beingi adiusted. Recovery is aecessarily slow, but there are no grounds te suppose that the recent cbeck to the prosperity of Canada is anything but ternporary". He is of the opinion that a good crop-which is in sight -wiii impart a marked stimulus te trading. Tbe Canadian puip and paper in- dustry is not affected by the "emer- gency" or any other tariff. Owing to the strong demnand f or its pro- ducts frorn the United States, it is resurning rnucb of its old-timc act- ivity. During May, for example, 50 per cent of our exports to the Re- tpublic were in the f orm of wood, pulp and paper. It is uaderstood that American publishîng interesta, not having received from certain Eunopean countries the. satisfactory supplies of paper they had expected, have turned again te Canada. Thus it is found that of 78,031 tons of paper imported into the United States in the early spring, 73,119 tons were from Canada; the figures for unbieached sulphate and ground puip show much the samne proportion. Exports of newsprint to ail countries for the twelve rnontbs ending May were 16,050,000 cwts., or 1,346,000 more cwts. than during the preccd- ing-period. As foreign capîtaiists are beavily interested in Canadian rnining yen- turcs, it wiil be of înterest to know tbat the Dominion's total goid pro- duction to, the midýdie of the present year is $488,000,000; silven, $265,- 292,000; copper $270,529,000; nick- el, $173,473,000; lcad, $54,000,000; and zinc $20,000,000. A total pro- duc'tion in these metals of $1,270,- 000,000 for a young country the southera fringe only of wbose min- erai resources bas been touched, gives a fair indication of Iwbat lies bef ore it. 1 tbp.sp. knowa reso£-.rces, added A Study in Christian Ethic.
