Camper account for 24 per; cent of all these fires; settlers burning slash started 22 per cent; lightning 10 per cent; and railways 26 per cent. The figure charged to railways however, an unfair index of responsi- 'bility. In the first place, practically all_fires started, or said to be started, from railway lines are instantly re- ported. This is not true of campers, settlers and lightning fires. Again, the majority of railway fires, being _ quickly detected, ave quickly put out so that as timber destroyers the rail- way lines have fallen to a minor posi- tion. The problem of land clearing fires started by settlers and running into the green timber s one of the most aggravated and complex. Settlers in "newly developed districts must use fire to clean up the debris and naturally wish to choose hot and dangerous weather when burning conditions are best. This inevitably means that for the clearing of farms, Canada has paid a tremendous forfeit in destroyed . timber. Much has been done, however to make the process of land clearing safe by issuing permits for burning . and supervising the operation through officers of the Forest Service.

When the time comes to extract, the bees may be cleared from the supers bee-escapes. = The wood-wire board fitted with two escapes is a rapid super cleaner. The board can be easily put, in place beneath the supers and if done in the evening the supers will g usually be cleared of bees by the fol- lowing morning. Before putting on the escapes see that the springs are spaced properly to allow the bees free passage through them but not wide | enough to allow them to return. If, bee escapes are not available the bees can be shaken or brushed from the, 'coming. This excites the bees too much. . As soon as the supers are removed | from the hives they should be taken | to the honey house, which must be Yo proof, as the odor of the honey will attrac the bees and likly start them robbing.

Mr] Bracken said he would think about calling a special session of the Legis-f 'lature to let the farmers and the bank- ers debate the subject. "Calamity Howling" C. W. Rowley of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, declared that merchants and others had to be considered. Mr Rowley said he had just returned from Europe and he had heard more "cala- mity howling" in three days in Win- nipeg than in six months in Europe. There was nothing the matter with the country, but the people wanted to be spoon fed. T. A. Burrows, a lumber dealer, de- 'clared that many farmers had been 'wiped out by rural credit societies. He believed the farmers were suffering from an abundance of credit facilities 'rather than lack of credit.
