U. S. VS.. Canadian Wheat.

A Lancaster citizen hands to The
Herald for publication the following
comparison as to qualities and prices
of Canadian and American wheat.
How would you like to leave the
United States and raise wheat in
Canada
On Friday. March 9Th, 1912, there
were 72y cars of wheat inspected in
Minneapolis and Winnipeg; 124 cars
in Minneapolis graded as follows
90 cars or over IA per cent of No 1
northern.
u cars or over So per cent of No 2
northern.
80 cars OF over IS per cent of No. 3
northern.
Balance No. and no grade.
About so per cent of the Minnea.
polls wheat graded No. and No. 1.
515 cars inspected in Winnipeg
graded as follows:
5 cars or only per cent of No. 1
northern.
Al cars or only per cent of No. 2
northern.
1OS cars or oily 20 per cent of No. 8
northern.
70 cars of No. 4.

80 cars Of feed.
1O8 cars of no grade.
10 cars of rejected.
46 cars out of 515 cars graded No.
and No. Or only 8 per cent as COM
pared with 80 per cent in the United

Then figure that when the Canadian
farmer is selling his wheat for from
70 cents to Is cents per bushel for No.
1 wheat the u S. farmer is getting
from 95 cents to ST. per bushel, or So
per cent more, you can form . very
good idea of where the Canadian
farmer gets off at.
The above statement is correct for

Good Prices for Zinc Ore.

Regarding the tariff on zinc ore
that has been argued pro and con for
the past four or five years, and from
the side Of the no-tarIff people it has
neen cited that, Wa have never seen
the high price for zinc ore, namely
s54 per ton, which prevailed at one
time during the period Of no. tariff. =
This has been stock argument of
the no tariff people, but the present
week in the Joplin and Wisconsin
fields seems to have settled that argu-
ment for the simple reason that the
base price of SO per cent zinc ore has
reached $50 per ton and bonafde sale
Of zinc ore has been made by COM
pany in this district at 500 per ton
for 60 per cent zinc.
At the time there was no tariff on
the Mexican product it is admitted
the product of the Mexican mines was
small, in fact that they were just be-
ginning to be developed and continued
to develop as long as there was no
tariff on the product. But while it
is fact that high prices were re
ceived during this time it was on &C.
count Of a scarcity Of ore, which
would not occur now were there no
tariff. for the simple reason that the
Mexican country can furnish the
American smeIters with low grade
ore in large amounts.
The mining industry in South
western Wisconsin was never on a
more firm base than it is at present.
The properties being operated are in
majority of the cases being operated
at a profit and are controlled by
people Of experience who are in the
mining business not for the reason of
making fictitious values. but for the
purpose Of making money. Platte

Reflects Ultraviolet.

Prof. J. Won Kowalski, in letter
to Nature London), describes his OBJ
servations of the spectra Of sunlight
reflected by snowfields in Switzerland.
He finds that the ultraviolet rays are
reflected by snow almost in their en-
t1rety. This fact helps to explain the
trying effects of such light upon the
eyes, and suggests the advisability Of
wearing, during a period of snow and
sunshine, glasses that are Opaque to
the ultraviolet rays.

Until quite recently MT. Clayton was assistant attorney general under Attorney General Ross Collins, but re- signed to return to the practice of his profession at Tupelo. He had the repu- tation of being very able lawyer be- fore he came to Jackson as one of the states legal advisers, and il is bound to be that the experience he had here in looking after the criminal docket has served to fl him exceedingly well for the duties of the new position to which the governor has called him.

It is understood that the commissioners elect have had several conferences about ap- pointments and other matters, but so far they have announced the selection Of only one man and That Is A. B.
