Woman suffrage scored a victory in
the house when the majority report
of the elections committee, recon.
mending for indefinite postponement
A. S. Larson's bill which would ex.
tend the franchise to women in presi-

of 65 to A after more than an hour
of debate.
Proponents OF woman's suffrage
were elated and declared that they
now see a possibility of forcing the
bill through the house and to the SEN

be made early next week to have the
measure made special order in the

immense QUANTITY
Of WHEAT TIED UP
There win Still, However, Be a
Heavy Deficit Of the Worlds
Normal Crop.

A grain expert who has been watch
ing the grain markets and the worlds
grain fields for number Of years,
says
There is at the present time about
two billion bushels OF wheat. the pro-
duction of the countries at war, tied
up. This Is about onehalf the worlds
total production OF wheat. which ii
four billion bushels. One writer ar
CUES that, granting that the warning
nations produce a one.half crop In
the coming year. deficit of one bill.
lion bushels Will still be shown. The
three countries upon which the filing
OF this deficit OF one billion bushels
will rest are the United States, Can
ada, and Argentina. The combined
output OF these three countries 10 only
,249,000 zoo, their exportabIe surplus
would OF course be much less, so IL
can easily be seen that the question
Is not one to be easily solved and 1t
behooves all the above countries to
Increase their respective productions
as much as they possibly can. for
when the war In over and trade begins
to re-estabiish itself and the nations
undergo a process OF rehabilitation,
the demand for all breadstuffs will be
enormous.
During the three years following
the declaration OF peace the farmers
OF all neutral wheat-producing coun-
tries viii have ample opportunity to
market their wheat at good prices,
and it may safely be assumed that the
demand Will be heavy: Canada has
an unusual opportunity I'm that she
has the natural environment for wheat
production; she is under the protec-
ton of the British flag, and she will
not be moiested upon the water TO
any great extent; she can increase
her acreage and greatly enhance her
production. In other words, she can
become far greater wheat-producing
country than she Ia at the present
time"
If the summing.up as made by this ex-
pert be correct. is there not the very
best reason for the continued effort
that is being made by the Government
of the Dominion of Canada to secure
settlers on the productive vacant
lands of the country Not only are
these lands capable Of producing high
class wheat in large quantities, but
cattle, pigs. sheep and horses also do
we'll. The climate Ia admirably suited.
