II is not known exactly how long

caravan will be organized for the trip
from the railway terminus in Uganda

The president promised Bishop

known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best Of personal and family

on which it acts without any facilitating

the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and

A transportation question that has
been agitated in Ceylon for a long
while, and that is now being brought
actively to the front again, is that Of
connecting Ceylon to India by rail
road across Adams Bridge and the
shallow bodies of water ]cing between
Rameswaram and Tallaimannar at the
northern end of the island. The South
Indian Railway company are bringing
their line to the extreme point of the
small island of Rameswaram, so that
only a small gap of water will inter
vene between the termini of the In
dian and Ceylon railways. If the con-
nection is made at all it will make
Colombo the port for southern India,
and will greatly benefit the tea and
rubber industries by facilitating the
transportation of laborers from India.

Canada is doing a great deal to help
its farmers. The latest scheme is 70
advance 100000 to those in the
provinces Of Alberta and Saskatche,
wan whose crops were a failure last
year and who are therefore crippled in
facing the needs of another season.
The announcement will come as a sur
prise to many, however, for the idea
has been sedulously incucated that
the Canadian northwest was a region
of unfailing prosperity, and thousands
have been induced to immigrate in the
belief that it was a veritable promised
land. In view Of the outcome, says
the Troy On " Times, the Dominion
authorities may feel morally bound to
go to the aid of the unfortunate ones.
And if the news of the crop failures
gets abroad it will be still more diff
cult to put into practice Rudyard
Kipling's idea of pumping in imni-
grants from England.
