In brief. what Canadians desired most, a large crop to follow upon the excellent market "Yof 1924-25, had been raised, is being reaped and threshed and promises to broad details of the situation, learned at first hand, are given in this bulle- tin. - . » From planting to reaping time Canada has looked to its daily news- papers for the truth about - the har- vest. From now to midsummer 1926, national politics and policies will ba engrossing topics, focussing through the Daily Press. These facts give national advertisers a potential con- tact of tremendous power, because a nation's people must have news at a vitally important time ' in a na- tion's destiny, In such matters as the growth and movement of : the harvest and in national politics the newspaper becomes an institution, while the subsidiary forms of publi- city assume their proper propor- tions--Ilifeless and newsless, . . . This Canadian market of more than 9,200,000 persons is more than ever a goal worth seeking in 1925- 26, when from $250,000,000 to a possible $400,000,000 more than ever before will be released in the form of added buying power. It should be remembered also that this is only the beginning of things. Less than 38,000,000 acres of an avail- able 167,000,000 have been broken in the prairies. Seven millions have been added in five years. Every add- ed dollar of purchasing power in the Prairies means added prosperity for the Maritimes, Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia. . . . Nearly 7,000,000 of our people were borfi~in Canada; more than 1,- 000,000 in Great Britain; more than 370,000 in the United States. They are readers of the daily news- papers which have a total circula- tion almost identical with the num- ber of families, Both French and English have their daily press and in Toronto and Ontario a considerable Hebrew community is served in Yiddish. Daily newspaper space in Canada is cheaper than anywhere in the world with a milline rate of $2.83. 3 Through eight cities the Mari- time Provinces can be covered at 62c a line; through four cities, Que- bec at $1.07; through twenty-five cities Ontario at $1.83; through eleven cities, the Prairie Provinces at 84c a line; through six cities, British Columbia at 50c a line. Crop Large an Profitable, Canada's golden harvest of grain for 1925-26 is assured; some of the wheat is already in the elevators; reaping is gengrally well advanced; later grains are in safe condition; adequate labor is' available; the co-operative wheat pools have an- nounced an initial guarantee of $1 a bushel for wheat. Apart from the customary 'attempts of grain gamblers and professional specula- tors to bear the crop reports, every ote in a position to know the facts | is satisfied that this year's yield of field crops is so satisfactory and so encouraging that no person need go beyond the limits of strict verity in predigting a resultant effect upon general business conditions in Can- ada that will be stimulating and permanent. Sound and conservative investiga- tors, personally interviewed in the 'West by the writer within a week, felt safe in predicting a wheat expp of between 350,000,000 and 375,- 000,000 bushels. Two of these in- vestigators are widely known and trusted by Western grain growers and handlers because they are re- puted never to have entered into a buying or selling operation in any grain exchange. Added to their esti- mate is that of Sir Hengy Thornton, President of the Canadian National Railways, who voiced his opinion in an interview accorded to a Toronto dally newspaper after he had com- pletéd a trip through Western Can- ada, that 400,000,000 bushels of son's harvest.

In the West itself. the crop means this: The settlement of all necessary | obligations with not only a comfor- |[l§ table hut a wide margin of money for those who raised the wheat. - There will be enough for a further - reduction of mortgages, for the pur- = chase of lumber, steel, machinery = and such staples of improvement, tor the liquidation of debts, for the | Il payment of labor, and sufficient |i tunds for the indulgence of long re- | pressed desires in personal com- wl fort, luxury and pleasure. Retail |i shop keepers, wholesalers, manufac- turers, mortgage and land compa- n nies, banks and railroads are inte- wu gral parts of the naffonal unit that m benefits by the raising, distribution and financing of the harvest, x Crop May Be First in Value. uw Only once, if present figures are ww approximate, has the present wheat i crop been exceeded---in 1923, 'when IH the harvest was 452,000,000 bushels. In 1915 it exceeded 360,000,000 bu- shels. Guarded opinions are that the prices this year will compare with the best year's. Hence a feel- ing of assurance--it cannot be clas- sed ds optimism--that if all that was necessary to bring back business activity was another harvest as good or better than that of 1924-1925, that condition has | been fulfilled. The quantity seems assured and no- thing has happened in the wheat fields of the world to indicate a disturbance of the balance of pro- duction and 'deman® 'which finds Canada im so fortunate a position. CHINA NOT READY T0 GOVERN HERSELF Mrs. Omer Kilborn, for many years & missionary of the Methodist Church in China and now a mission- ary of the United church, who is in Canada on furlough and who is visit- ing her sister-in-law, Mrs. R; K. Kil- born of this city, calls the attention of the Whig to some statements made in an article dealing with the Chinese question, which appeared in this paper on Friday last. The ar- ticle was the report of certain re- marks made by a former prime min- ister of China, now lecturing in the United States. This distinguished Chinaman in the course of his re- 'marks says that China does possess a central government strong enough to provide security for t foreign lives and capital in Chiaf. Ho also charges many abuses of the Chinese against the foreigners in that coun- try. These statements, Mrs. Kilborn says, are unfounded.The government is really controlled by separate mili- tary factions in each province. Civil war is a common oceurrefice and no Chinese life is safe if he is thought to possess money, Citizens of for- eign countries would be in the same deplorable state as native Chinese if the demand of China that the extra- territorial rights of foreign countries repealed, was acceded to, says Mrs. Kilborn. ' These extrasterritor-|[ lal rights are the problems at the |g root of the Chinese agitation against | pe Britishers. Mrs. Kilborn explained that these rights provide that a for- eigner can be arrested by Chinese police but he must be tried before the consul of his own country.
