In Europe the making of cheese is a fine art. In Canada cheese is, or has been, a m. 'ter of commerce. The war- on the continent is Canada's chance. Competition’s wings are clipped. To-day there is the Oppor- tunity to establish a reputation for Canadian made cheese. This is the opportunity which the Dominion De« partment of Agriculture urges our cheesemakers to make the most of. Canada is rich in fallacies. One of the most thriving of these falla- cies is the idea that the domestic product cannot possibly equal the European born article. Experts agree that some of our home-made pro- ducts are in a class rith the foreign- made. But the label “home-made” is the thing that damns our cheeses. There is Limburger cheese. Its quality is superior to and its price cheaper than the European product. Long ago it drove its European rival out of the market. As a matter of fact little foreign Limburger has been imported into this country for years. But Limburger consuming persons continue to consume, bliss- fully ignorant of the facts in the case. They still believe they are eat- ing a foreign cheese. Well, they are not eating foreign cheese. Most of it is made in Western Ontario in the German districts. Then there is Swiss cheese, which has done much to add to life’s gas, ety. It can he made in Canada with the same degree of tastiness and with just as many holes as the foreign product. Camembert of the best. quality alo ways commands a good price, but it has suffered in this ('ounzry through opposition on the part of the pro- moter of the imported article. In addition to Camembert there are a number of other fancy foreign cheese which are pOpular here and which could doubtless be imitated successfully by Canadian cheese- makers after a little experimental work. Among these varieties are Edam, Gouda, Parmesan, Roquefort; tilton and Gorgonzola. Canada has now an earl among her permanent residents in the person of the new Lord Clarendon, who has just succeeded to the title. The late Through the efforts of Hon. W.T White, Minister of Finance, the manufacture of shrapnel in Canada is going to be the means of materially benefiting the silver lead industry it the Kootenay. The bullets for the shrapnel are to be made from Canao dian lead. Hon. Mr. White took the matter up with the committee of thd Cabinet, placing orders for shells, and satisfactory arrangements have been made with the smelting companies at Trail], B.C. The Finance Minister, with the as- mstance of Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president of the C. P. R., a short time ago was instrumental in securing the Continuance of smelting operations and of shipments from the leading mines in the Kootenay country. which otherwise would have been largely stapped because of the present It has been the custom among Canadian manufacturers to turn out one or two varieties of cheese and stick to that. This is the fault of the public that pins its faith to the imported product. It would be a wise move on the part of Canadian manufacturers to label their c eeses very frankly as Canadian goods. The consumer can then judge for himself. But if the Canadian manu- facturer is to win and keep Canadian custom he must think more of qual- ity in the future. Otherwise the ad- vantage will be only temporary. Earl of Clarendon died recently at his seat, The Grove, W'atford, Herts. Lord Clarendon, Who was sixty- eight, had a record of long service at Court. He was a lord-in-waiting to Queen Victoria. As Lord Chamber- lain he was responsible for all the details of the coronation of King Edward. He had been aide-de-camp to King George since 1910. A per- fect host. and a good sportsman, his shooting parties were famous. An art connoisseur, he enriched the mag. nificent collection which he inherited, including the copy of the Gobelin tapestry of Raphael’s cartoon “The Miraculous Draught of Fishes,”preâ€" sented to his father, the Victorian statesman, by Napoleon III. at the signing of the Treaty of Paris. He was a felicitous and cultured speaker. Lord Hyde, his only son and heir. who is aged thirty-seven, married a sister of Lord Somers. With their two children they settled in Canada just over two years ago on a farm of. over 200 acres at Pickering near Toronto. Lady Hyde said she in- tended to become a practical farmer’s wife and do all the work: she possibly could herself. It is hardly probable that the Gov-e ernment will bring out to Canada any Belgian refugees. It was thought at first that this would be an excellent move in order to provide help for! farmers who are in need of men. Several reasons are urged against any action by the Canadian Govern-I ment. One is that the Belgian Gov- ernment has ordered every subject between 18 and 35 to join the colors. â€"â€"â€"uv ' business afu-i financial conditions. Dominion Not Seeking Belgians.
