It seems obvious that the pre- ponderance of opinion places a high esti- mate on the worth of Panama to Western Canada, and though there is no adequate means of judging, there is a shrewd suspi- eion that not.a few of the foundations and extensions of various concerns in the West- ern provinces and British Columbia are being made in preparation for the augment- ed trade expected to follow the opening of the canal. : Tn any consideration of the matter it should be clearly borne in mind that the Un- ited States Government s discrimination in favor of certain of the ships owned by Am- erican interests will not-affect Canadian ships. A Canadian ship taking a cargo from a British Columbia port to England, or a cargo from one of our Pacific ports to one of our Atlantic ports, will fall into the class of foreign ships. Only United States ships engaged in coastal trade between United States ports will receive the benefit of the lower tolls. Heretofore the current of commerce from the prairies has run wholly to the east. Tt seems certain that after the canal has been thrown open for traffic, there will be a divi- sion and. that from some point in the West the trade will flow in two directions, east and west. The location of that point will be solely dependent on freight rates. In the pastit has been very costly to send goods to the Pacifie coast.

That is-why the interest in the Railway Board s enquiry is so widespread. All predictions as to the change in the traffic routes have merely been predictioris and must remain predictions for some time after the great canal commences to carry i student of the that- however, feels convinced that goods from the coast of British Columbia and from points at a greater or less distance in- land are destined to go by the way of the Panama Canal: ; Will the new waterway be of any benefit to Alberta? Many who have looked into the matter d clare it will and that its effects will be f lt almost immediately after it is opened. To send wheat from Alberta to Liverpool by way of Vancouver and the water route around Cape Horn costs at the To send wheat from Alberta to St. John, N. B., by rail and thence to Liverpool costs 35 cents a bushel; in summer the Great Lake system reduces this to 28 cents a bushel. Now it is believed that it will be possi- ble to send wheat from Alberta to Liverpool through the Panama Canal at an average saving of-8-1-2 eents a bushel over these figures. Like all statements regarding Panama, this is only a forecast, but it has been accepted as probable by many writers an not a few commercial concerns. The opening of the new canal will be awaited with interest by all connected in any way with trade in Western Canada. . Practieally eve o . THE GC, P.

He spent three years at the Univer- sity of Iowa and-later engaged in higher studies at Harvard and the University of Heidelberg and the University of Geneva. Since the completion of his education he hhas had a most diversified career. He tramped over the greater part of Europe and upon his return to America he enlisted in the army for the Spanish war. He vis- ited Mexico, taught school for a number of years and tried his hand at truck farming before settling down to a career of writing and political activities. Of late years he has made his home in his native city of Daven- port, where he was a Socialistic candidate for Congress two years ago. Mr. Cook s best known literary works include **Glimp- ses of Florentine Evolution and the juperman, Roderick Taliaferro ? and The Chasm.

Rise in Standard of Living Has Greatly Helped the Small Farmer. London, Oct. 7. The dulletin of econom and social intelligence pub- lished by the International institute of Agriculture, contains an interest ing article on the cause of the agri- cultural revival in England and Wales during the past contury. One of the principal causes, states the bulletin, fs the growing demand for what may be termed the svc- ondary products of agriculture, such as dairy produce, poultry, exes, veg- etables, Iruit*and flowers. The rise in the manner of living of the artizan olasses, and the largely increased ur- ban population, creates a large de- mand for these forms of produce, and this has caused the notable develop- Ment in that branch of agriculture. Egsox, for instance, which used to b devoted entirely to the growing of corn, and which during the agri- cultural crisis became almost barren land, has now become a prosperous Mairying district, supplying the east end of London with fresh milk. In England and Wales the average number of cows and heifers per. 1000 acres of cultivated land has risen,in England, to 84 in 1910, as compared with 85 in 1875-79, and in Wales, from 95 to 102 in the same period. It was also calculated that in 1904 during the preceding thirty-one years the area under orchards had increas- ed by 63.9 per cent. Egg production and poultry keeping is calculated to . have. increased from six million pounds in 1878 to 11,700,000 pounds in 1909. In 1909 it exceeded in value the production of wheat, which only amounted to 10,370,000 pounds. Med- jum sized farms (fifty to 300 acres) have shown a constant tendency to increase, in 1903 there were in Eng Tand and Wales 6016 more than* in 1885 and oven in-the year)1910 the number of farms. of this class in- creased by 205.
