Taylor took place Monday _ WESTERN CONDITIONS | * SHOW INPROVENENT) Premier Dunning Estimates Crop at Over 400,000,000 Bushels. Western Canada is counting on 1925 for a bumper year. There is an | intangible optimism in the air throughout the prairies and on the | | Pacific coast that is based largely on | | the splendid crop -outlook but there | are other indications of reviving business. A few of these noted by a Whig representative during a recent trip in the west was that an execu- tive of one of the largest insurance companies in Canada reported that very little money was outstanding on insurance policies and that business was improving all the time. In every city there is a progressive building | programme being carried out and | new houses and commercial build- |ings are going up all the time. Many new sections are building up in Winnipeg and the same can be | sald for nearly all the western cities. | The manager of a big departmental store in one western city sald that sales showed an improvement of about 10 per cent, for the last two | months of this year and that the | other months held their own or | were an improvement over last year. He attributes this partly to the | tact that owing to the operation of | the wheat pools the farmer gets his | money in several payments and at | cannot spend it all at once. Also he | believes that because of the bad !'crops during the past few years | that the farmers and townspeople | have learned thrift and have prac- |tised it and are now reaping | some of the benefits. A dealer in | ladies' clothes in Vancouver after a | trip to Montreal and Toronto re- | ported that he found his trade in | Vancouver was brisker than trads | in the two eastern cities. These facts { all indicate that things are on the mend in the west and that commer- cially prospects are much brighter | than they have been for a long time. It is generally known throughout Canada that crop conditions are bet- ter than they have been in many years. The rains in June did £ great deal of good and in most parts of the west there'is enough moisture in the ground to last till near the end of July. The season is advanced in nearly all parts and at the end of June, wheat was headed out and standing 30 inches high in parts of Saskatchewan. All kinds of esti- mates of 'the crop are heard but Pre- mier Dunning of Saskatchewan whén asked his opinion in this connection smiled and said that the main facin- ation about farming was the glor- fous uncertainty of everything. After enumerating a& number of the things that might happen to the crop before harvest he sald that with the prospects at the end of June ft would seem that If no unforseen calamity occurred the crop would | be over 400,000,000 bushels of wheat. It is generally felt in the west that the price will not fall be low $1,00 a bushell. According to crop experts yield this year is expected to the be of last year and at the same time the American crop is said to be below the average so that prices are ex- pected to remain firm. The amount of grain carried over from last year is also less than average. | OBITUARY || Late Mrs. Taylor. funeral of the late The Mrs, { Aid, and in the Woman's Auxiliary, | advantage of the opportunity. morning, from her late residence, 361 Johnson street to Cataraqui ce- metery, in charge of the James Reid firm.

Kidd Pays Tribute Tal Late Mrs. Katharine Lyman. { Before beginning his sermon in| St. George's cathedral, on Sunday morning, Rev. W. E. Kidd paid thas following tribute to the late Miss Katharine Lyman. "I would like to say a word in tribute to one of our members who passed this week ifuto the rest of | the Paradise of God, Miss Katharine | Lyman. With her passing our ea- thedral parish has lost one of its most active members. Until pre- vented by her illness, she was an ac- tive worker in the Church Woman's especially as the hospital visitor and secretary for junior work in the dio- cesan Auxiliary. In all these soci eties she gave liberally of her time and ability, and her works were blessed with success. Her faithful attendance at the services of the | church, her faithful use qf interces- sion for the spiritual life of the par- ish, made her a great strength to us all. Now that she has passad from the church militant, may sha have | peace and rest in the Paradise of God and may light perpetual shine upon her." During the offertory, the organist played "Blest are the Departed" from "The Last Judgment" (Sphor). QUEEN'S ARCHIVES. An Interesting Course of Lectures Are Put on in Ottawa.
