Built of native stone quarried from the base of Mount Acknowledged by the most dis- criminating as the finest resort hotel on the American continent the Banff Springs Hotel, opened by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company on May 15, inaugurates a new era for visitors to the Rocky Mountains. This internationally famous center has been in process! of rebuilding during the past two winter seasons and now stands complete, magnificent as to cons- truction and furnishings and beyond compare as to beauty of: surrpungings. _‘ l Our Aim is Quality at the Most Reasonable Prices.

Have Wide Powers 'l'o feed a bunch of good thrifty beef steers is a profitable side line. besides being an economical method of marketing cheap rough- ge grown 'on the farm, such as hay and roots. In reading the annual report issued from the Experi- mental Farm, .Vappan, it may be noted that a good average market price has been charged for all feeds consumed and. furthermore, that a good averagé profit over feed cost has been realized over a period of years. in the finishing of a bunch of beef steers. After all, this is .the most businesslike method 01' 'l‘arming and the adoption of such a policy will be found a profitable: one. There will be more manure available for top-dressing; conse- quently, less money going out for fertilizer, all of which helps to swell the income. from the farm. The main point to bear in mind is the selection of good feeders of the right type, steers that will make. reasonably good use of the feeds consumed. River, is alone worth a trip to Banfi. The building of this great hotel or rather the rebuilding, has been going forward for several years, but the construction work has not interfered with the comfort of the summer guests. The work has {been carried on Quring the winter 'months. Enormous wooden shells were erected and heated through- out with steam, and the work done with the same ease as if at the height of summer. It is interest ing to note in this connection that this system of construction in- volved a monthly consumption of coal of more than 7 00 tons. In a very few weeks it will be necessary to purchase the steers that are to be finished for the spring market. The selection of profitable feeders is much more ditt‘icult in the Eastern provinces than in the \Vestern Provinces, due‘ to the. fact that a very high per- centage of the Eastern steers show evidence of considerable dairy cattle breeding. However, there are many of these steers, even with some dairy blood, that will make very profitable feeders and they are the ones that should be select- wt for the winter feeding work. The remainder should go to the block as they come from the pas- tures. Select only such steers as will conform more closely to the real beef-type. that. is, straight. low set. deep blocky individuals. with a quiet. temperament. It is .that real dairy-type of steer with a nervous temperament. that one wants to avoid in the feed lot. For example. out. of twenty-five steers fed at the Nappan Experimental Farm during 1927-28. six of the steers were 'of the latter type and their average gain in 12:3 days was ’ only 161 pounds. against 246 pounds as an average for seven steers that were fairly typical beef steers. with some dairy blond mixed in. The former were worth 11/,» to z rents less on the market! in March. besides making 85 pounds less gain. The dairyntype steers, never made pm‘ititahle gains. nor did they look liniShei't at their SELECTING THE FEEDER STE‘ER (Experimental Farms Note) Since he ascended the throne. King George has shown that he realizes to the full the inestimable benefit. of such experience as travel and personal contact alone can give by sending the Prince of Wales upon similar Empire mis- sions, and the Duke of York and the other royal princes. are also being brought. into intimate touch with the Empire outside the Bri- tish Isles. If any of them, in the years to come. reveals an ignor- ance of Canada or of South Africa or of the other Dominions, it will not. be the fault of the King. l (in his return from Britain Hon. H. Ferguson. Prime Minister of Ontario commented upon the fact that. King George was well ac- quainted with conditions in Can- ada. No monarch who ever sat on the British throne was so thorough- ly groomed for his great task as King George. His early service in the Navy. which took him into many ports in many seas; his later travels; his world tour; his fre- quent. visits to the Dominions. and his progress through Indiaâ€"all these things were deliberately de- signed by a wise and far-seeing rather to equip his son for the. portentous destiny that. was to bel his some. day. Ton miles an hour may be too tast. under certain conditions, While '10 miles an hour on a good road is not. a dangerous speed When there is no traffic congestion. ' The 01111100 plan is too harsh, 101 afte1 all the question of what constitutes safe speed for a' car depends alogether on circum- stances. That policy has been tried out for some time, and has not given the desired results, and now the dras- tic step has been taken of deciding that the license of every driver who is exceeding the speed limit will be automatically cancelled. And- there will be; no chance of appeal on the part of the driver. As soon as he is found guilty of driving faster than 30 miles " an hour his license is cancelled, and 1w loses his privilege of driving a car in Quebec. With the speed limit 35 miles an hour in Ontario and only 30 in Quebec, it seems unfair that an automobile owner should lose the use of his car for doing something that is quite legal in another Pro- vince.
