CIENT MONEY. To Handle the Enormous Crop in? the. North-West--How the ' Banks Will Finance for the Situation. Montreal Herald. Will our banks be able to handle the enormous crop which is likely to be reaped, and will the demands for money for this purpose cause any stringency in the money market this fall ? These are questions that have been asked frequently during the past few days, and were answered in a very interesting manner by a man- ager of one of the larger Canadian banks, who has served for a number of years in Winnipeg. "The movement of the crops will un- doubtedly create a good demand for money," he said, "'and while there may be a hardening of rates, there should not be any serious stringency this fall. The people of the North-West will realize an immense amount of money from the sale of this year's crop, and some well-known authori- ties have placed the amount likely to be obtained 'as high as $80,000,000; that estimate; of course, would cover what the country would receive from the sale of wheat, oats, flax, cattle, wool, hides, ete. Assuming that the wheat crop will reach 80,000,000 the price obtained say sixty cents, the wheat alone would fetch $48,000,000. Under our admirable banking system the difficulties in hand- ling this large amount of money are not very serious, as' with our flexible scheme of 'circulation the banks have the actual money in' their own tills ready to pay out 'for the grain as soon as it 1s weady for market. _ "The business of wheat buying in the North-West has reached such large proportions that some information with regard to the method "of hand ling the business' may be of interest. "The financing of the crop is done almost entirely through the Winnipeg banks. The large milling companies and elevator companies have a great number of points throughout the country at which they buy wheat through their country elevators; in addition to this at each buying station théy have arrangements, us- ually with a country storekeeper who pays out the amount in cash to the farmer on production of a ticket sign- ed by the elevator man. During the wheat buying season every morning the head offices of the companies in Winnipeg send a list to their banks of the amounts to be remitted to the different country points. These amounts are usually distributed in emall sums running from $1,000 up to $10,000, and the daily disbursements of some of the larger companies some days reach as high as $75,000 to £100,000 if the deliveries are very ac tive, and as the amounts 'are paid out at country points further sums are re- mitted, and the country storekeeper throughout the season is kept well supplied with cash. "The country storekeeper is usually anxious to be appointed as a paying out agent for one of the big milling or grain companies, because it brings the farmer into his store, and he frequently is able to collect an overdue debt, or perhaps sells him a new bill of goods through getting him into his store in this way. When the farmer gets his money, he pavs it to the country storekeeper, the land of- fice or implement dealer, and the ac- tual notes find their way back quickly to Winnipeg, where they are redeemed through the Winnipeg clearing house. "lf the harvest is early fifty per cent. of the wheat crop should be marketed and shipped to the head of the Great Lakes before navigation closes, because the country is well equipped with elevators, and with the Canadian Pacific and Canadian North ern railways well supplied with rolling stock, and an' elevator capacity at the head of the lakes of about 20.- 000.000 bushels, and with unsurpassed facilities for handling and storing the grain, this year there should not he any difficulty in getting say one-half of the crop out of the country before the close of navigation. "As the bulk of the wheat that is bought in the North-West is purchas- ed at country points for cash, this should jake a total circulation of sav $24,000,000 of money, and while it will increase the loans of the banks doing business in the North-West very ma- terially, the bulk of the wheat hand- led should, before the close of naviga tion be turmed into cash again through sales for export, so that the money should come back to Canada very quickly. After the close of navi- gation, the interior elevators and ter- minals fill up gradually, and the banks will, as usual, be asked to loan large sums of money, which will be locked up until the opening of navigation next spring." Death Of Fred Walters. Fred. J. Walters died at his father's home in Bloomfield, August Tth, 1905. For the past four years he has been manager of the National Fire Proof Waint Co., at Joliet, NM. Since Janu- ary 19th, of this year he resided in Denver, Col. Hoping to gain his form- er health, but not having gained as expected he retuned to hit old home, After visiting a host of old friends and familiar places, he gradually grew weaker until the end, which came quiet and peaceful. In November, 1904, he was married to Ida Mav Loring, of Decatur, Ill. He also leaves his fa- ther and mother, Mr. and Mrs. E. IL.

PROMPT OUTSIDE ACTION Prescott Messenger. : a -- In June a floater was found in the | Can Alone Save Peace Conference river below Prescott, It was the body of a tattooed man. After a week's search to identify the compse, J. B. Stiarth, of Owen Sound, daimed to récognize the remains as those of John Woodward, who had been bar-dlerk for him. Woodward was off on a holiday and was supposed to have met with foul play. Stiarth was positive in his identification of the tattoo marks and as Woodward was a Mason the local members of the craft interested them- selves in the imterment. As Woodward had no relatives in this country the matter was speedily forgotten, but is brought to attention again by a' card received from Stiarth, stating | that woodward was in Scotland at his home there. Thus the mywtery of the drowned man is re-opened and his | identification at this late date will probably never be made. ¢ Y.M.C.A. Physical Notes.
