Ottawa, Sept. 3.-Canada 8 trade re-

While her foreign commerce as a whole
has not increased, her purchases from

Despite the fact that she gives Great
Britain a tariff preference Of one third,
her purchases from the United
States are 21@ times as large and are
that Canada, despite tariff barriers, is
the commercial ally of her great neigh
Dor, and that under favorable condi-
tions is the best of all future openings
for American trade.
Canada is third best customer of the
United States. Leaders of public opin-
ion in Canada assert that in the light
of present developments neither coun-
try can afford to obstruct much longer
the flow Of trade between the two, or
allow it to be diverted to other markets

the spawn is made. This is the first
time that such a display has been
made in the state.
Mushroom spawn has been extremely
difficult to obtain in America, as the
entire supply came from France and the
people who produced it kept the process
close secret.
