That there are great possibili- ties for the development of trade in Canadian products through the agency of the Empire Marketing Board was stated by the Hon. James Malcolm, Minister of Trade and Commerce, on his re- turn to Canada from an eight weeks' tour of the British Isles. The marketing board, he said, had created a most favorable sentiment towards Canadian pro- ducts, and it remained with Can- adian producers to take advan- tage of this. The increasing service given by the banks of Canada to the busi- |ness community may be measur- ed b¥*the increase in the number of branches. At the time of Con- federation there were 123 branch |banks in Canada, as against 3770 jat present. The June employment situation jin Canadian industry was better cording to the Department of Labor. The index number (with January, 1920, as 100) stood at 105, compared with 100 the pre- ceding month and 94 and 95 in June, 1926, and 1925. The per- centage of unemployment among unions was 5.2, as compared with 6.0 in May. Canada's total wheat yield for the season 1927 is forecast at 325,075,000 bushels by the Domi- nion Bureau of Statistics. The estimate for the three prairie provinces is 305,052,000 bushels and for the rest of Canada 20,- 023,000. The total yield of oats is estimated at 389,758,000 bush- els, of which 226,297,000 bushels is assigned to the prairie prov- inces. Barley is estimated at 88,830,000 bushels, of which the prairie provinces are expected to furnish 71,724,000 bushels.

For flaxseed, 5,319,300 bushels is es- timated, of which all but 107,000 bushels is allowed for the prairie provinces. The total area esti- timated as sown in wheat in Can- ada for the season of 1927 is 21,- 350,300 acres, as compared with 22,987,048 acres reported for the year 1926. The decrease of 1,- 636,748 acres or 7 per cent. of territory is attributable to the lateness of seeding. Increases in Canada's foreign trade have been greater in pro- portion than the growth of com- merce of the United tSates, says a review by Dominick and Dom- inick, investment bankers. The Dominion's imports in 1868 total- led $67,090,000 and exports $52,- 702,000, or a total trade of $119,- 792,000. In 1926 impofts were $1,030,093,000 and exports $1,- 267,573,000 or a total trade of $2,298,466,000. Canada now ranks fifth among the commercial coun- tries of the world, says the re- view.

Australia's Arrival at Quebec National Event Hon. W. D.

It was her first appearance on the broad bosom of the St. Lawrence River, Canada's highway to the sea. Already famous as one of the world's great and most beautiful ships she had come from across the iA ic newly conditioned and with entir ly new engines to take her place in the Company's Atlantic fleet as another aid to the develop- ment of Canada's overseas trade. Her arrival was a national event and it was marked as such by a din- mer on board at which were present His Excellency, Viscount Willing- don, the Governor General of the Dominion, the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario and Quebec, the Prime Minister of Canada and by a remark- able gathering of leading Canadians in many walks of life. As chairman of the dinner, E. W. Beatty spoke of the occasion as an evidence of the development of the great St. Law- rence route and the upbuilding of Canada's ocean transportation ser- vices by a Canadian company under policies based upon the conviction that the St, Lawrence raute has ad- yantekess which might well be ex- ploited in the interests of the Do- minion.

His humanity, his generous instincts and his rare tact, would win for him a very peculiar place in the affec- tions of our people were he only a private citizen and not, the personal representative of the King." In replying, His Excellency said that during the last two years, and especially during the last nine months, he had had the opportunity to learn something of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Much of the credit of Canada's ia ess was due to the pioneers -who built that railway. Wherever he had gone he had ad- mired its efficiency and the effi- ciency of its officers, and the care and consideration they gave to the comfort and the well-being of those who used their lines. In his recent tour in the west he had had the], opportunity to see what the C.P.R. was doing in connection with large irrigation schemes there whereb: they were turning lands that would not be suitable for cultivation into smiling farmlands capable of sup- porting a large population. Cacune also -was noted as a great hotel coun- try and he thought that the credit for this was due in no small part to the Canadian Pacific Railway with its chain of _buildings across the continent. Before concluding he also touched on the influence of the com- pany on the industrial lif® of the Dominion, "But above I feel that the company is a aa binding the Do- minion of Canada with my mother country," he ended amid cheers. Replying to the toast to the Do- minion of Canada, Right Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King said that during last few days everybody must have been stirred by the marvellous story of our nation.

Another feature of early Cana- dian life was the part played in Canadian development in transpor tation by water. Then followed con- federation and the development of the country by transportation by land and by the Canadian Pacific Railway. Quoting a letter from Sir Robert Borden the mier read that had it not been for the French along the St. Lawrence there would have been no British Dominion in Canada today. It was conceivable, said the Premier, that if the Canadian Pa- cific Railway had not been built that there would have been no Brit- ish Dominion in western Canada to- day.- There was a danger of pene- tration from the south, but the C.P.R. brought British settlers +hrough to the West.
