OTTAWA -- Canada's exports to the United "Kingdom in January show an increase of more than 30 per cent. over. the corresponding month last year, according _to figures released by Minister of Trade and Commerce W. D. Euler.' Last month's exports totalled $21,- against $16,611,036 in January, 1934, making an increase of $5,071,804 or 30%% per cent, Exports to the United States also showed a satisfactory increase. In the past month they totalled $20,- 129,564, compared with $17,629,101 last year, an increase of $2,600,463 or almost 15 per cent. The minister merce regards these figures as an answer to critics of the reciprocal "trade pact with the United States. Contrary to their predictions that trade with the United Kingdom would be adversely effected by the trade agreement, Mr.. Euler pointed out, exports to the United Kingdom|- have increased at even a greater rate than those to the United States. "Our - exports to these two coun- "ries 'are about 80 per cent. of our ex- _portsyto all countries," said Mr. Eul- er, "and the importance of this large gain is -a' significant demonstration of the effectiveness of the trade pol- jcies of the present government. Our total exports in January were $53, 538,000 which was a 22 per cent. ad- vance over the exports of a year ago." ; : "This sharp advance in.our trade," said Mr, Euler, "is most encouraging also when it is remembered that our interior and lake- ports are closed down during = these severe .winter months." ; Nii Ethiopia's Rain No Mere Drizzle '(From a National Geographic & Bulletin, Washington) {Rainy days are beginning in Ethi- 'opia, and they're bringing cheer to Haile Selassie's soldiers. Cloudy skies 'mean the "little rains" are on the 'way, hampering, Italian military movements with entanglements of - plain, old-fashioned mud, bombard- merits of hailstones and barrages of water that make raging torrents out of dry river beds and insignificant streams, "Mud and rain always have been the bane of armies, but mud and rain in Ethiopia cause more difficulty in travelling, perhaps, than almost anywhere else. In Ethiopia it is literally_true that "it never rains but it pours". Even "The longer it rains the deeper becomes the mud---mud that sticks to men's quagmires in which pack animals sink nelplessly up to their bellies. Hard-surfaced highways are still practically noa-existent in Ethiopia. The little rains, or karaya, now on the way, are less hampering to travel than the big rains, or dofe, which halt practically" "all traffic (except the railroad) in Ethiopia between June and September. During the little rains there is a hard shower during part of almost every day, but afterward a brilliant sun dispels the clouds and the air becomes dry until the next storm. The little rains begin in earnest in February and last until: April or May. : Records at Addis Ababa show that the average rainfall of 20 years jumps from half an inch in January : to 1.89 inches in February, 2.76 in March, 8.42 in April and 2.98 in May.

Annual report of the Department of Agri- culture said field bee losses from pollen obtained from veteh ranged from 50 to 90 per cent.

B. McCready) Sa EE a RA Sh Ch a Editor's. Note: This is the seventh of a series of "articles which were published récently in the Harriston "Review." While written specially for the "Review" and addressed to residents of M nto Township particu- larly, we believe they will be found interesting to many of the, readers of "this papes bécause the problems of the farm folk of Minty Township are the same.p yhlems that' confront rural people throughout the province. three interesting days in The Int. ernatignal Folk High Sclrool which J attended in Denmark® was€locuted al Lllsinore famous as the site of Kron- berg Castle, the scene of Shake. |speare's play of Hamlet, A half hour sail on the ferry across the 'Scund, lands one in Sweden. Mr, Pet. er Manniche, Principal of the Schoo! | arvanged three excursions sg that his students assembled from all pavts of ithe world might get a.glimpse of the Swedish life and culture. Later Mrs. McCready joined a party of English and Scottish teachers on a five-day' tour to _Gotenborg and Stdekholm while T toured Denmark further to visit Folk High Schools. The first excursion was ty see a country school and church in a Swe. dish rural community. We went by train on Sunday to the nearby vail- way station and from thera quite a number of the ¢lass were conveyed in farmers' wagons "or automobiles, Some of us walked through the love. Iy countryside. The students were di- vided up into small parties and en. tertained to afternoon tea at farm homes. There was an interpreter for each group. " It was my gqpod foitune to be in the party entertained in the home of the head teacher of the, school; Mr. Oscar Bokelund. There was a fine residence alongside the school for his use but he did not occupy it. He had his home on a nearby 20.acre farm. Ilis widow. ed sister occupied his part of the teacher's residence." He was a man of about 45 years of age and he had J tanght in the school over As in Denmark, the Swedish country | schools are state schools and the tea- Fars are as well paid as teachers in the towns. We had fea in the garden at his home and afterwards Inspect- ed his stables and farm. The assist- ant teacher had her quarters In a se- parated part of the school teacher's residence, a Viterwards: all the groups assembl. od at the school for supper. The pas- tor of the Lutheran Church adjoining "*he school, and ten or twelve repre- sentative farmers of the district join- ed with us and made us feel very wel. come. Both the chureh and the school were attractive and in splendid re- pair. Like all the cemeteries which 1 saw in Denmark, th, cemetery at this rural centre was faultlessly kept. One has a feeling in such visits that theif country is an old-fashioned country. Not like Minto, only sixty years or so from the bush. The teacher's res- idence was quite new however and the two.roomed school up to date. Swed. en has better country schools than Ontario. } The second excursion into Sweden was an all day trip by motor bus up into the hills to a famous tourist re- sort. Here we Yad a never-to-be for- gotten Swedish dinner. On the way to the resort we paid a short visit to an old "Swedish--castlo -occupied--by the same family sitic 1750. There was a 9000.acre estate, most of it under forest management by five trained foresters. The young owner of 745, tate was a very fine iin mod.' ern. He spoke excelient English." On the return trip we spent an in- teresting hour Inspecting an up-to- date paper hox and printing establish- ment in a-country village about the size ot Clifford. There were about 70 employecs. Most of fhe homes in (he. village appeared to have consider able land attached to them.'T do not know how far industry is decentraliz- ed info country villages in Sweden, but fancy there is more of it than we have in Ontario. Hydro.vleetrie pow. cr is cheap and available everywhere in Sweddan. Many thigk we need a back-to-the-village _pglidy In Ontario. "The third Swedish excursion was perhaps of most interest and profit, Tt was a visit to the famous Svalof Plant Breeding Institution, On this occasion our party was a small one. It consisted of a teacher from Eng: land; another from Virginia, U.S., and myself. The Svalof Institute is per- haps the most famous experimental farm for crop improvement in the world.
