Special to The Journal. s-.,s:s.ss g
Winnipeg, Man. Nov 2e.-The news that 3
American millers are making arrangements to !
buy Canadian wheat in large quantities has .
been matter of much discussion among farm i
ers mfllers and grain spectators On this side O
of the line. The situation which Is foreshadowed G
by the arrangements noR being made for the
grinding of Canadian grain in American mills is
entirely unprecedented. Two years ago Canada .
sent several hundred thousand bushels of grain, .
to the Minneapolis mills, but that was year !.
Of bounteous crop, when the supply OF wheat far .
exceeded the capacity Of Canadian mills, so that
the exports to Europe rose to unprecedented fig
ures. @a ~. IT,
But last year, with smaller crop the exports
Of wheat to Europe fell off by nearly half, while
the quantity sent to the United States was vaI.s.
ued at only 200. This year the/crop Ia {
again a partial failure. SO that the quantity
avail for export, after satisfying growing
home demand, must be comparatively small
In the last five years there has been a great
revival in the Canadian milling industry, which !
had been allowed to dwindle during the pertodt L
of depression which passed Canada the last
decade of the nineteenth century. The exports
OF Canadian -four which had actually been on the
decrease to less than million annually, from the
seventies down to the nneties, started to grow
rapidly from 1900, until last year they exceeded
six millions of dollars. OF course, it is much
more profitable for Canada to export flour than
wheat, and the steady growth of recent years
showed that the Canadian CALLERS had made
good start in building up reputation abroad.
But now, with the competition Of the American
millers in the grain market the question is will
they be able to get enough wheat to maintain
their trade? 80
The Canadian miller is still handicapped by
want of capital, and concentration. In the,
small mills the capital invested does not produce
such large output to the dollar in the large
mills of Minnesota. Again, the official statis-
tics show that for want of the most improved
machinery the Canadian miller pays larger
proportion Of his output in wages than his Ameri-
can rival. This explains, perhaps, why thei
American miller can pay more for wheat. Thel
result will no doubt be that several Of theI
smaller mills in Canada will have to close down.
But the Canadian farmer will profit, and it ID
the farmer which will eventually build up Cam
ada.

it in new way. Ownership of land"
he says, ''is the only guarantee of con-
tinuance Of the family life. apart from
the possession 81 very great wealth"
As most of his hearers do not possess

New Hampshire and the degeneracy OF
the rural population. but the striking
thing about these articles is that the
authors write as though they had dis
covered something peculiar to the
countryside. To them, at least. it must
como as a new idea that the aban-
doned home of the city and the degen-
eracy of the city population are SO ac-
cepted as matter Of common knowledge
that articles upon these subjects no
longer engage much attention. 1t is
,rue AS President Tucker told the
farmers that the history Of the
average horne life taken out OF the
lives of the masses is written In water.
On mich mas been written about the
increasing private investments in
farming land that it would seem as
though the last word must have been
said. But there is one feature OF these
investments. Or at least, of many of
them. that must appeal more strongly
TO the city man than to the farmer. 1t
is that ownership of a place i'll the
country-a summer home in the noun
,,ins or at the shoreis coming to
count 70, more and more each year. AS
rule the city man who invests in
farm in Maine or elsewhere in rural
New England does not do it for the
purpose Of making molev. and does not
make money. On the contrary,
his country home costs him more
than he can get out Of it in the
way of material wealth. But it gives
hin. things which his money could not
buv anywhere else. He receives a
pleasure in the possession which is
worth more than it costs, and the very
fact that those who acquire homes IN
the country show an increasing appre-
citation Of other things than money is
in itself a good sign. 1t is a social in
yes,ment which improves the COM
munity and pays the investor in health
and pleasure. and the greater the APP
probation of these things the better it
will be for the nation as Il whole-the
city and the country.
