Belleville and Trenton on Market days Business is Better Confidence in the future of Canada reflected in the value of building permits for the month of May. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics, compiling these figures, notes an increase in value of 58.9 per cent over May cf last year. Permits to the value of $4,799,285 were authorized last month 61 cities, compared with a value of $1,779,524 for May, 1934. Manufaturers well as builders Took to the future with enthusiasm. Reports have come from cities and towns throughout Canada of increased production, and of intentions to step up manufacturing capacity.

Local Red Clover Seed Best Extensive tests made on the Donf-inion Experimental Farms have clearly proven the superiority of red clov-seed grown locally in Ontario and Quebec and the lack of winter business in much of the imported seed, especially that from Southern Europe. Generall speaking, red clover seed i strains that have been found to produce profitably in a particular lo-ality for a number of yeafs is the seed best suited to that locality. At same time this seed is interchangeable over a wide territory where clirrratic conditions are similar and when not subject to new insects ir plant diseases. Under a provision f the Seed Act imported red clover seed is required to be properly stain-d before being offered for sale. Canadian Cattle exported to the United States from January. 1 to June 6, 1935 totalled 79,295, together with 1.630 calves. The number of cattle thus exported to the United States during this time is approximately 8,000 more more than the total export of cattle from Canada during the whole of 1934 to all countries. Lumber Indsutry Prospers Attributing the improved condition to the Imperial trade agreements, the British Columbia Lumberman, official organ of the B.C. lumber industry, has furnished cheerful facts in regard to conditions in the industry on the Pacific coast. Saw log production in April, 1935, 232,000,000 feet, was the highest since May, 1935. Exports of British Columbia lumber in May, amounting to 85,362,000 feet were within a mere 105,000 feet of the highest figure on record--85,467,-000 feet in January, 1934. British Columbia lumber exports to Great Britain in May, namely 49,-519,971 feet, were the highest on According to returns just received, the export of British Columbia fir doors to the Upited Kingdom in 1934 was 400,000 pieces against 100,000 pieces in- 1933. In Winnipeg the Pine Falls plant cf the Manitoba Paper Company will reopen next month and employ 200 men after being closed three years.

The Importance of a Prolific Queen Bee The foundation for next year's honey crop is laid by making sure that every colony 'is headed by a young and vigorous queen early in August so that she bag sufficient ime to produce a large rorce of bees before the end of the brooding sea-To perform the duties expected of her the queen must have ample l for maximum egg production and there must always be an ade-uate supply of food available for the brood she produces. Other conditions beings satisfactory, strong colonies n the following spring and of a tiong force of field bees in time for harvest. The stockyards at William Lake, J. C, lie in the centre of a miniature mpire, with the Cariboo country to the east and Chilcoien country to the west. An idea of tWe size of this territory may be gauged from the fact that It takes three weeks to drive cattle to the stockyards from the i remote ranches, while the bulk of the cattle which come from the west of the Chilcoten ,river requires ten days to make the trip. Canadian Science News Toronto, Ont., July 30th, 1935.-- Canada has emerged within the last lew months as the world's leading producer of platinum, following a remarkable and steady increase in the Dominion's output of this precious metal till, in 1934, the world consumption and Canadian production were almost exactly the same. Figures on Canadian production were discussed here to-day by John C. Nicholls, assistant to the President, International Nickel Company of Can- j "W|e believe from a comparison Of all the world production figures avail-, able, that Canada is now definitely in ' first place." Mr. Nicholls said. "Hitherto, Russia, with mines in the Ural mountains, has been the chief source of platinum. Reliable figures on Riis--sian production last year cannot be secured but a study of all the data cn production and consumption which is to be secured, indicates that Canada has definitely taken the lead." In 1934, Mr. Nicholls said, Canada I produced silightly over 200,000 ounces of the metals of the platinum group. He thought that 1935 production Would also be high. "Platinum is a by-product of nickel production," he explained. "There is approximately one ounce troy of platinum in each 20 tons of copper-nickel ore1 from^the Frood mine and the efficiency of modern milling and refining methods now makes practical the collection of the minute particles of platinum present in each ton of platinum-bearing ore." Though platinum has been found in seven of the nine provinces and was observed as long ago as 1862, there are no official statistics on production before 1920 and during the next 12 years, the total for the platinum group was only 419,000 ounces or slightly more than double the production during the last 12 months. For 1933, it was 55,755 ounces but the remarkable increase in copper nickel ore mined in the Sudbury basin brought the total over 200,000 ounces for last year. '^Canada is now producing on a commercial scale, five of the six precious metals in the platinum group," Mr. Nicholls says. "These are platinum, palladium, iridum, rhodium and ruthenium. All are found in the nickel-copper ores of the Sudbury basin, and Canada is also the world's chief source of palladium. Osmium is the remaining metal' not produced in this country. "In addition to its use in jewelry and as a setting for gems and precious stones, platinum is widely used in industry. It also acts as a variety of chemical ringmaster, causing other elements to react while being unaffected itself." Imports of Canadian wheat to Italy ;e restricted, not only by relatively high custom duties--over six dollars pear 100 kiles--but also by the application of the wheat-mixing law. The latter, as at present effective, compels Itallian mills to grind 99 per cent of both hard and soft Italian wheat, thus leaving only one per cent foreign wheat in the finished product. In spite of these dififculties, Canada exported 24,512' metric tons of hardy, 18,523 metric tons of soft wheat, and 15,594 quintals (220 pounds per quintal) of wheat flour to Italy in 1934.
