The Globe has beengetting at the financial condition of the country by securing from Registrars statements of their business as an index to the prosâ€" perity of the country. The tone of the reports is generally optimistic, and we quote that of Registrar Lauder, of South Grey : _ In everyfpaper we pick up we‘re sure | to find a lot of silly gush about the man | who is behind. ‘Thereis the man behind | the counter and the man behind the gun, \the men behind the buss saw and the | man behind his son, the man who is heâ€" | hind the times, the man behind his rents, | the man behind the plow shares, and the lman behind the fence, and the man beâ€" ‘hind the whistle. and the man behind | the bars, the man behind the kodak, and |the man behind the cars, and the man | behind his fists, and everthing behind | nothing is entered on this list, _ But they‘ve skipped another fellow, of whom !nothing has been saidâ€"the fellow who lis even, or a little way ahead; who | always pays for what he gets, whose bill is always signedâ€"he‘s a blamed sight |more important than the man who is {behind. _ All we editors and merchants | and the whole commercial clan, are inâ€" | debted for existence to this honest noble man. _ Hekeeps us all in business and his |town is never dead ; and so I take my ‘ | hat off to the man who is ahead. «The mortgage indebtedness in this district is decreasing. In 1901 the aggregate of all mortgages was $620,671,65 ; in 1902, $598,207.02, in 1903, $546,531,.42. The discharges in 1903 were 568, in 1902, 526. The rate of interest is fronf"1 to 2 per cent lower than it was ten vears ago. _ The maâ€" jority of new mortgages placed are or the purpose of paying off old mortâ€" gages drawing a high rate of interest and. of course, a great many are given in part payment for property purâ€" chased. _ The holdings of the farmers are becoming larger, if there is a move in either direction. _ Usually the acâ€" quired property is paid for partly in cash and partly by a mortgage on the rcqnired property, sometimes all in cash, but seldom by placing a mortâ€" gage on the other holdings. It is difficult to say how the farmers invest their savings, but as a rule by improyâ€" ing their farm and the quality of their live stock. while not a few have bank accounts." Inspector Burgess, who returned this week from a five week‘s visit in Southern Manitoba, speaking of the crop condiâ€" tions published, says that the alarmist reports about rustâ€"black and redâ€" originate with grain speculators who want to depreciate the value and buy at low grade prices and sell at a grade or two higher. From a personal inspecâ€" tion in miles and miles of wheat fields, in comapny with practical farmers, he says that while an occasional sign of rust could be seen on the blade or stock, the grain was simply magnificentâ€" strong in straw, long heads and plump grain. _ Many of the fields will ran forty bushels to the acre, and not a little has been sold at seventyâ€"two cents a bushel before it is cut. _ The harvest will hbe from a week to ten days later than usual but he looks for the most plentiâ€" ful results. _ This means much for eastâ€" ern Canada as well as the west, and Owen Sound will share in the general prosperity.â€"Owen Sound Times. lDurham, 30 Aug., Two hundred men wanted to work at the Canadian Soo.
