CANADA'S PLACE

est primary wheat markets of the
world. In 1904 they raised So, O0O, 900
bushels of wheat. Five years later
they produced $50, 900, 900 bushels. In
1913 the crop Appropriated 200, OOO.-
O0O bushels. At the present rate of
progress Canada must soon pass
France and India, and stand third in
the line of wheat producers. Ulti-
mately it will dispute with Russia and
the United States for the first position.
Wheat has been the pioneer of our
development. Undoubtedly it will
prove the same with Canada. In the
last calendar yea our trade with Can
ada amounted to 497 million dollars.
Only with two countrfes-the United
Kingdom and Germany-is our trade
greater. No vivid Imagination is
needed to see what the future devel-
opment of Canada means to the
people of the United States.

REDUCTION Of CITY
TAX RATE IS LIKELY
IN 1867 BOWMAN
City in End Will Gain Largely
Through Extension Of
Capitol Park

City Commissioners Bowman hold:
out the pleasing prospect of the re-
duction of the city tax rate next year
He believes the rate for 1914 will be.
the same as last year.
Incidentally, it is stated that valua.
tions of city property will be reduced
to the extent of nearly 100000 by
the elimination of property in the
Capitol Park extension district. There
is some difference of opinion on this
point among those who have observed
ment Of enlarging the State park was
started about two years ago.
1t is contended that already one
million dollars has been paid out by
the Commonwealth for the various
properties that have been acquired
and that most of this money has been
reinvested in new plants, improved fac
tory buildings and dwellinghouses. 1t
Is also pointed out that under the pol
icy of the Capital Park Extension Com
mission many persons have been per-
mitted to occupy their premises after
the State had paid for the same, with
the understanding that all the city,
county and school taxes should be paid
as before. pending the actual removal
of the buildings.
Among some who were discussing
the question to-day, it was contended
that in the end there will be a sub
stantial gain in the valuations through
q better class of business and residen-
tial properties; that while the city
seems to have lost in revenue for a
time, 1t will in the end have gained
not only In the Improvement of the
city itself. but in the actual returns
from increased valuations.
There has been general commenda-
tion OF the commission for it's fair
treatment of property owners In allow
ing them to retain possession of the
buildings for year or two while they

and homes. 1t Is also stated that the
