A : The greatest discovery' 'wankind Hab made is co-operation. It is the difference between savagery and + sivilization. All that is worth while in the progress of humanity is the result of co-operation. The pioneer * and the reformer have blazed the way, bt the highway of progress has been constructed by the united efforts of many minds with a single pur- pose. The greatness of our progress depends upon the amount of trust and sympathy there is in the world. Nothing good grows in bate. One hundred years of research along this line will change the map | of the world quite as' much or more than war. War makes us hug our- selves the tighter. Co-operation throws down the barriers, sweeps away 'boundaries, and opens the wealth of the world to all the people. BATHING PARADE--182x8D BN. C. E. F ar Wainy Came meat.

Here I saw the third largest bell in England What surpises us most is the lavish way we Canadians are welcomed over here.

Minister of Agriculture a distribution 'of Superior sorts of grain and potatoes ' will be made during the coming win- ter and spring to Canadian farmers, The samples for general distribution will consist of spring wheat (about 5 1bs), white oats (about 4 Ibs), barley (about 5 lbs), and field peas (about 5 Ibs). These will be sent out from Ottawa. A distribution of potatoes in samples of about 3 lbs. will be carried on from several of the. experi- mental farms, the Central Farm at '| cement roads is $1.35. Manager. Cerealist, Experimental Farm, Ottawa for an application blank. J. H. Grisdale, Director, Dominion Experimental Farms Road Facts While it is evident that the Road Improvement Plan outlined by the Council will not now be carried out, there is information being gathered regarding this matter that should be of interest to the ratepayers of Port Perry. Kirst--Screened gravel can be se- secured from Blackwater for 87ca ton ($1.10 per yd.) f.o.b. Port Perry. Gravel from the town pit costs $1.50 per load on Port Perry streets. This would give, after allowing for unloading from cars, good screened gravel at very little above the cost of the inferior grade we have been using and it can be secured at any time. The lowest tender received by the Council for cement roads, according to the standard specifications, is $1.12 per square yard. The lowest tender for tar bound macadam is $1.85 per square yard. The highest tender for The Tarvia tender does not necessarily the lowest possible cost. In this year, where Tarvia streets were laid, the cost ran from $1.10 to $1.76 per square yard. a good index as to the cost of this represent Berlin These figures give style of road, as the work was done last year under war time conditions. Mr. Dunkley, the agent for Tarvia was in town last week. He was for fifteen years street commissioner in Picton, Ontario. He was taken over the road between Widden's Corner. and the northern limit of the Corpor- ation with a view to getting his idea as to any difficuities that stretch of joad might present as to drainage,etc. He said that the road appeared to be springy in places, and such places would have to be tile drained, but that the road in question presented no una usual difficulties. The cost of construction would be between $1.10 and $1.85 per square yard for Tarvia. The cost of upkeep would be about $50 to $60 per year, Every third year the road would have to be swept and given a coating of Tarvia and fine stone, at a cost of 8 cents per square yard. These are Mr Dunkley's figures. . His objection to cement road was that the expansion and contraction of cement causes it to crack if laid in large blocks, and that when laid in smaller blocks the joints wear quickly These facts are given without bias. We need all the information we can get, to start a constructive road It is all very well to say what ooh home of Queario sod Quebec.
